Chapter 20 Entering the Taoist Temple
Ge Qingqiu choked, this kid is really ...... He has both vision and honesty!
He didn't say anything to repay the grace of saving his life, and complimented himself by the way, which made Ge Qingqiu refuse directly.
She hesitated for a moment, spread her hands, "Huh...... But you have also seen that now I am no longer a big lady, and I may not be able to support myself, so where is the extra money to pay your wages? β
Hua Ao shook his head again, "I'm not afraid, the eldest lady is the smartest person the slave has ever seen, and the slave believes that the eldest lady will not always be like this." β
The young man's eyes were clear and bright, and those eyes were full of trust, so that Ge Qingqiu couldn't bear to refuse.
She touched her nose, turned her head and said to Qingxing: "There are people to help you, what are you doing with such a heavy burden by yourself?"
Qingxing was stunned for a moment, and before she could react to what she meant, Hua Ao had already stepped forward and took over the two small burdens in Qingxing's hands, "Sister Qingxing, leave these little things to me in the future." β
......
Half a day later, Ge Qingqiu took Qingxing and Hua Ao and lived in the Jingxi Zhenyue Temple.
Thinking of this place, he won it back from the old Taoist priest with the help of Lu Changfeng on the day he returned to Beijing, Ge Qingqiu couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly.
Unexpectedly, it was the unreliable ex-fiancΓ© who indirectly helped her.
At this moment, in stark contrast to Ge Qingqiu, who can still laugh, is Qingxing, who has a sad face beside her, and Hua Ao, who is quite unclear.
The two of them looked at the broken temple in front of them, which was not much different from the broken temple, and they couldn't even find a clean place to break the Taoist temple, and they all had a thousand words to say in their hearts.
After a long time, Qingxing finally couldn't help but open her mouth first.
She pointed to the dusty room in front of her with an embarrassed expression, and her expression was very entangled: "Miss, do we really want to live here?"
Ge Qingqiu's eyes raised and he looked serious, "Naturally, this will be our place in the future." β
Qing Xing was desperate, and wailed with a broken face, "But this is too dirty, isn't it?" I don't think anyone has lived here for at least ten or eight years. β
Although she also lived in the nunnery with Ge Qingqiu in the past, the Baiyun Nunnery was full of incense, so there would never be such a dilapidated place.
In front of me, except for the fact that the place is quite large, the others are really three points worse than the firewood house of Baiyun Nunnery at the beginning.
Ge Qingqiu saw the gloomy look on her face, smiled, and comforted: "This is all temporary, when we find a livelihood to support ourselves outside in the future, everything will be fine." Besides, it's not that bad here, and if you clean up a little, you can still live in it. β
Qingxing hesitated for a while, and asked tentatively: "Miss, you said that if you change your mind now, is it too late to go back and marry King Rongjun?"
Hua Ao nodded thoughtfully, "I think it's too late." β
Ge Qingqiu slapped the heads of the two of them one by one, mercilessly breaking their illusions, "This may not exist, go to work!"
......
The three of them were busy until night, and it was easy to clean up two rooms that were basically suitable for people.
After all, Hua Ao was still young, so Ge Qingqiu ordered him to go to bed early. She and Qingxing went back to their house and began to pick up the things they had brought out of Gefu today.
Now, the two of them have finished packing up the things in their baggage, only to feel that the melancholy of the day has reached its peak at this moment.
On the small table, two feet square, spread out the two burdens they brought out from Gefu today.
There were a few pieces of jewelry, a dozen taels of silver, and some dry food.
Although these jewels are in good condition, they are relics left by the original owner's biological mother.
Although Ge Qingqiu and the original owner, the biological mother who died early, actually did not have any mother-daughter relationship at all, she had taken possession of other people's daughters, so it was difficult to take these few relics as well.
Therefore, at this moment, in addition to the Zhenyueguan title deed that allowed them to live in it was still valuable, the three of their masters and servants could really be called useless.
Recognizing this cruel reality, Qingxing once again sincerely suggested, "Miss, in fact, even if you don't marry King Rongjun, I think that if you go to King Rong's Mansion to find the old princess, she will not ignore us because of the relationship she once had with our wife." β
Ge Qingqiu glanced at her, "Put away your useless thoughts! There is a way that good horses don't eat back grass, not to mention that your young lady and I are a good horse for a thousand miles, so naturally I can't do this kind of thing." β
Qingxing knew that she couldn't persuade this stubborn young lady, so she was deflated, and sat aside and stopped talking.
However, Ge Qingqiu was high-spirited, patted her shoulder, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, don't say that the three of us are good now, even if I am the only one left, I will not let the two of you go hungry." β
......
On the morning of the second day, Ge Qingqiu returned to the city early.
She wasn't joking with Qingxing yesterday, so today, she must find a job that can support the three of them.
Originally, Ge Qingqiu thought that with her modern vision and IQ, finding a job in this era should be a matter of handy.
But after half a day's effort, she found that the cruelty of real life had just begun from the moment she left the gate of Gefu.
People in this era are not interested in the series of marketing methods she is familiar with, so Ge Qingqiu's way to find a livelihood in places such as teahouses and restaurants is not working.
And those jobs such as embroidery for women, Ge Qingqiu knows them, but they don't know Ge Qingqiu.
Therefore, after half a day, she didn't even see any hope of finding a job.
Walking out of the fifth recruiting shop, Ge Qingqiu looked at the sky with some dejection.
She was about to go back to Zhenyue Temple first to see if Qingxing had found something to do, but a group of people suddenly rushed over from the front at this time.
Those people's eyes were excited, and their expressions were even more hideous, and they scrambled one by one, as if they were in a game, lest others come to their front.
Ge Qingqiu was pushed a few times by these rampaging people, and finally found a balanced fulcrum, she grabbed an unknown object next to her, and did not reply for a long time.
After a while, the object she had been holding on to finally asked, "Girl, what are you doing here?"
Ge Qingqiu was stunned for a moment, only then did he realize that he was holding a fifty-year-old lady to death.
She embarrassedly let go of her hand, looked ahead again, and found that there were not only those who had just rushed towards her, but also people in all directions.
