All the way back to the Hou Mansion of China, Zhou Bingde led the carriage to the backyard stable, and Gu Yuqing helped Ji Xiang Ruyi back to Tongyuan.

After washing, she changed into homely clothes, and served her with this slightly late lunch, but she did not feel sleepy, only feeling refreshed.

At this moment, it is the afternoon, the autumn sun, slightly drunk, the air is filled with the fragrance of osmanthus, fragrant and fragrant.

Sitting on the swing frame under the vine, it is not swinging, but the toes are paddling around the ground, leisurely and leisurely, grasping the rattan cables on both sides, the eyes are slightly narrowed, the chin is slightly raised, and from time to time a deep breath, greedily sucking the fragrant air around the body, and the corners of the mouth unconsciously bend a sweet and glutinous arc.

The sky in August, clear as blue, blue as a transparent crystal, a few white clouds, like a ball of the most delicate and soft wool, with the breeze, slowly floating, lazy and leisurely and noble, people look at it, can't help but be fascinated.

A starling under the corridor, cooing, learning human words, from time to time to the south of the wild goose team in the sky to call a few times, but what is said is a festive goodbye, there is a look, I don't know who taught it.

Such a leisurely life, in the past and present life, since the death of her mother, for the first time in the past few years, Gu Yuqing enjoyed, every pore of her body was cleansed by this quiet and peaceful, and her whole body was relaxed, like a wisp of tea stretched in a tea cup.

was intoxicated physically and mentally, walked auspiciously in front of him, and whispered: "Miss, Zhou Bingde asks to see." ”

After a few breaths, Gu Yuqing reluctantly opened his eyes, "Let him come in." ”

Auspicious order, promised to come out.

Gu Yuqing helped Ruyi to get off the swing frame, walked to the stone table on the side, Ruyi put a thick cushion on the stone bench, she sat down, and a steaming Biluochun was already placed in her hand.

It's just the kung fu of the tea entering the throat, Zhou Bingde has already lowered his eyebrows and lowered his head, followed behind Jixiang, and walked in.

In front of Gu Yuqing, he saluted respectfully, "Miss." ”

After greeting him, Gu Yuqing smiled and said, "But something?" but he understood in his heart that he should have come for the thousand taels of silver.

Zhou Bingde got the words and immediately said: "Miss gave the slave a thousand taels of silver to go to the private room of the Magnolia Pavilion today, and the slave only used eighty taels. ”

Hearing that he mentioned the 1,000 taels of silver, Ji Xiang Ruyi looked at each other, and he was even more concerned than Gu Yuqing.

Just heard him say that it only took eighty taels, and the two couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

Eighty taels, that is, the normal price of the private room on the third floor of the Magnolia Pavilion in ordinary times.

But today is not an ordinary day, not to mention that when he went, it was already only two hours away from asking for a cut, and the time was so urgent, at that time, not to mention that the Magnolia Pavilion had to sit on the ground and raise the price, I was afraid that there would be no private room for a long time.

He only used eighty taels, the normal price, and got the second best room in the best location.

Moreover, he has not yet moved out of the name of the Hou Mansion of China.

Ji Xiang Ruyi was simply curious to death, how exactly did he do it!

Although Gu Yuqing was also curious, he didn't plan to ask, since he was instructed to do something, he didn't make a mess without breaking the fortune, but did what she asked for smoothly, as for the process...... Everyone's methods are different, not to mention, she instructed the housekeeper to do things, but she never asked how he did it.

Zhou Bingde's voice fell, Gu Yuqing took a sip of hot tea, and said with a smile: "You did a good job." ”

But there was no follow-up.

Not only was Zhou Bingde surprised, but even Ji Xiang Ruyi was a little surprised, and the young lady didn't ask about the process.

However, surprise is surprise, the young lady doesn't ask, but they have no reason to beak.

Zhou Bingde's eyes were filled with surprise, and he couldn't help but open his mouth, "Didn't Miss ask me, how did you decide on this private room?"

Gu Yuqing turned his hand and put the tea cup in his hand on the stone table beside him, and said, "Do you think that you need me to ask you to feel at ease?"

A rhetorical question made Zhou Bingde stunned for a moment, and a different taste surged in his heart, the first time he did something, Gu Yuqing gave him such a sum of silver, but after the matter was completed, he didn't ask about the process, he completely believed him, wasn't he afraid that he would bully others and ruin the reputation of the Hou Mansion of China!

Mother always said that the young lady was good, but he didn't think so, when the mother left the Hou Mansion in China, Miss Gu was still a milk baby, and she could see who was good or not.

But right now, she believes in herself without any guilt, but the disdainful firmness in Zhou Bingde's heart is a little shaken.

Coupled with Xiaobao's nonsense in her room last night, she always smiled and tolerate.

This young lady...... Maybe it's really different.

Taking a deep breath, what Zhou Bingde had planned to say in his heart couldn't wait to get out, and he was a little more sure.

"The young lady gave the slave a thousand taels of silver, and now it is used eighty taels, and the rest of the slaves cannot be kept by themselves. Zhou Bingde pursed his lips, looked at Gu Yuqing tentatively, and said.

As soon as these words came out, no matter how much Ji Xiang Ruyi Rao endured, he couldn't help the shock in his heart.

Sky!

What is he talking about?

Relying on Miss's respect for Jiang's mother and her love for Xiaobao, is he a bully who wants to gain an inch?

Ji Xiang Ruyi suddenly became angry.

Gu Yuqing's face did not change, and she looked at Zhou Bingde without moving, "Yes, but can you tell me the reason?"

Zhou Bingde took a breath in his throat, and with Gu Yuqing's word "can", he let go.

"Miss let the slave be the horseman of the young lady, but on the first day of the minion, she asked the slave to go to the private room of the Yulan Pavilion, and the slave thought selfishly, Miss may not just let the slave be a groom, today's matter, Miss Xu is interested in training the slave. ”

Zhou Bingde looked at Gu Yuqing's expression while speaking, wanting to judge whether his guess was the truth, but he condensed for a long time, on Gu Yuqing's face, except for seeing her shallow smile from beginning to end, like this autumn sunshine, with warmth, but he couldn't read any other emotions.

I can't help but be discouraged, just just talk, no longer thinking about anything else.

What is the result, when you are finished, you will naturally know, anyway, you can't see it, and it is useless to think about it.

The slave thought, since this is the case, the slave will follow the young lady out in the future, and he will have to deal with the groom in other mansions, and in this process, it is inevitable to use silver, rather than asking the young lady every time, it is better to give these silver young ladies and give them to the minion. ”

After finishing speaking, Zhou Bingde lowered his eyes and arched his hand, standing there, waiting for Gu Yuqing's answer, feeling a little apprehensive.

After all, Gu Yuqing only said to him that he would be her personal groom, but never mentioned anything else.
