There weren't many people, so Gu Xinyue asked the girls to sit at the same table to eat.

While eating, I chatted with them casually.

The girls were only fourteen or fifteen years old, and after the initial nervousness, they slowly let go.

Seeing that the county lord was actually only sixteen years old, everyone was of the same age, and they could talk together, and halfway through the meal, the atmosphere on the table was extremely harmonious.

The topic has gradually broadened.

Yu Che's two families are officials, but Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Che are both from the Jiangnan wealthy family, and the ancient family is also a Jiangnan wealthy family.

Several families have a large number of properties.

Although the ladies will not go out to do business in an open state, the account books of the family's business must always be seen, and the external market must always be understood.

When he spoke, he occasionally followed Gu Xinyue's words and talked about some Jiangnan market.

For example, jewelry, rouge, mansions, granges, satin clothes, and grains, vegetables, fruits and flowers.

From the price to which one is the best, which one is the biggest.

Before I knew it, I said it with a smile.

Eat and drink well, Mrs. Yu was pointing to the soup made of flowers and talking about the price of flowers outside, when she saw her mother-in-law probing her brain at the staircase outside.

His face sank slightly.

It's rare to have such a good atmosphere, and there won't be any moths!

Gu Xinyue also saw the woman, put the chopsticks down, and beckoned: "Come on, tell the county lord, what's the joke?" ”

As soon as she said this, Mrs. Yu's face let go.

After chatting for so long, she knew that the heart of this county lord is actually similar to her own daughter, although she is full of majesty, she is still as naughty as a child.

Seeing that everyone at the table didn't care, the mother-in-law's face was also better, and she stepped forward and said: "Back to the county lord, madam, the girl of the Gao family fell into the flowers in order to avoid the honor of His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, which was brought back by the eldest prince of the Han family from outside, it was called a rose or something, and her clothes were scratched by thorns at that time. ”

"Oh? At this time, why are the five princes still in the courtyard? Gu Xinyue raised her eyebrows and smiled.

Mother-in-law said in her heart, the county lord, you are wrong, but you can't show it on your face, and you lowered your head and said: "His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince was going to the front yard, and was dragged by Miss Wen to see Dali Ju, and met the girl from Chen's family on the way, listened to them chant poetry for a while, and then met the girl from the Jiangnan Shipyard Cheng Director's house, and listened to her play the flute, this time was delayed, because of this, I was in a hurry to go out, and the road went faster." ”

"And now?" Seeing that Gu Xinyue's eyes narrowed with a smile, Mrs. Yu hurriedly asked, "Did Your Highness save Miss Gao?" ”

The mother-in-law's face flashed, and she lowered her head and said: "No, when Miss Gao fell, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince turned around and walked from another road, but I didn't see it, yes, it was the slaves and maids who pulled Miss Gao out." ”

"In that case, then give it directly to Mrs. Gao, what are we going to do back and forth?" Mrs. Che said with a smile.

She had seen more roses than roses, and it was not a matter of torn clothes for this man to fall into.

The mother-in-law's face was a little embarrassed, and said: "Yes, that's the case, after the slaves and maids dragged people out, the Han family came out, saying yes, they saw Miss Gao deliberately fall in, those roses are unique in the Piaoxiang Building, Miss Gao overwhelmed such a big bush, the slaves and maids saved people and stepped on a lot, and asked Miss Gao to compensate, saying yes, one plant is two hundred taels, that piece, it is estimated that there are more than a hundred plants." ”

The second girl Yu snorted and laughed unkindly.

After laughing, he immediately covered his mouth and learned to pretend to be a lady in his sister.

Twenty thousand taels of silver! Everyone in Jiangnan knows that anyone can owe money, but the Han family's money can't be owed!

The fox spirit of the Gao family is really, he lost his skin and suffered a crime, the five princes didn't catch it, and he had to pay such a large sum of money!

It's so cool!

"Ma'am." The mother-in-law looked up at the ladies and girls who were all smiling on the table, and said with a bitter face: "The girl of the Gao family is unwilling, saying that it is the Han family's subordinates who are blackmailing, saying that she wants to find His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince to call the shots, and ask the Han family for setting a trap to harm her. ”

"Blackmail?" Gu Xinyue raised her eyebrows lightly and said with a smile: "Mrs. Yu didn't say it just now, the price of this rose is priceless, and someone in front of her offered three hundred taels, but the Han family didn't sell it?" ”

Mrs. Yu was silent, not quite understanding what she meant by saying this at this time, but just looked at her respectfully.

"Well, the county lord remembers that when he told the Han family to borrow this garden, he said that he couldn't damage it and paid a deposit. Zhang Qi, go ahead and tell the five princes that these three hundred and one roses can not be afforded by the county lord. ”

After Gu Xinyue finished saying with a smile, Zhang Qi, who was standing quietly outside the screen, answered and took a few guards down.

Mrs. Yu was silent again.

"Come on, come on, there are His Royal Highnesses the Fifth Prince in this matter, let's continue to eat." Gu Xinyue picked up the chopsticks, smiled, and put the chopsticks down again.

looked at the mother-in-law at the top of the stairs and probed her brain.

Smiled and beckoned: "Come up, come up!" ”

You can divide 15,000 taels if you drop one, such a good business, it is best to have a few more orders!

Her smile was so bright that her mother-in-law's legs and stomach trembled a little, and she stepped forward and said, "Lord Qiyu, madam, the girl from Shi Shilang's family fell into the lotus pond." ”

"Yo, it fell when His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince passed by?" Gu Xinyue said with a smile.

"Yes, yes."

"And then? Did His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince go down and save it? Gu Xinyue said with interest.

"No, I didn't have time to save it," the mother-in-law lowered her head and said: "The lotus pond is connected to the Qinhuai River, at that time it was the time to divert the water and drain the water. ”

Belch......

The table was stunned for a moment.

"So, what about later?" Mrs. Che asked out loud.

This is easy to save people in the lotus pond and waterways, but how can it be saved when it rushes into the Qinhuai River!

"That, fortunately, there is a net hanging at the place where the waterway connects to the Qinhuai River, which just blocks Miss Shi." The voice paused, and the mother-in-law continued: "Only that net was originally to prevent thieves from stealing into the waterway, and there were a lot of iron thorns hanging on it, and this girl Shi was seriously injured. ”

Mrs. Yu and Mrs. Che's faces changed suddenly, and they screamed in their hearts.

It's easy to say that it's just a simple fall into the water, but when you see the blood, something happened, and it's inevitable that they, the people who organized it, will be tired.

Mrs. Shi is not a good talker.
