"Alright." Gu Qiluo saw that this old man was so thick-skinned, so he simply didn't save her any face, and said lightly: "The second master went to the north at the age of three, and didn't return to the capital until he was eighteen years old, how did Mama watch him grow up?" I heard you didn't go with you to serve in the frontier that day. ”

Mama Yue opened her mouth and stammered, her face was even redder like a rooster's comb, she didn't expect Gu Qiluo to be so ruthless, but she was really unwilling to retreat like this, so she said forcefully: "No matter what, the second master is my grandmother, I know what he likes to eat and wear, and if he leaves me, what if the girls don't take care of him?" Keep me here to take care of his life......"

Gu Qiluo was really impatient to talk to this old thing, and as soon as her face sank, she paused the teacup in her hand on the table, made a "pop" sound, and then said in a deep voice: "I keep saying that I am taking care of the life of the second master, as if he can't live without you." That being the case, Qiu Rong, you go and ask the second master, and ask him if he can't leave Mama Yue? After asking, come back and report to me. ”

Qiu Rong agreed, turned around and went out, here Gu Qiluo looked at Mama Yue and said coldly: "Did you hear my words?" I sent someone to ask the second master, if he said that he really can't leave you, you can stay, otherwise you can go back to the capital with me to enjoy happiness, Liaodong is bitter cold, I am also for your sake, don't appreciate it. ”

Mama Yue, who was choked on a word, almost rolled her eyes, and finally tasted the taste of "being kind", and after a while, Qiu Rong came back and said to Gu Qiluo and Mama Yue: "The second master said, he used to be in the barracks, and he didn't even have a small servant by his side. And so it came. So now, except for my grandmother, I don't have the habit of leaving anyone, and I have to go back to the capital even if my grandmother is grandma. There is no need for others to stay. Xinghua is what grandma said she would stay to deal with housework, and it doesn't matter, everyone else's grandmother took it away, so as not to stay here to hinder the eyes of the grandfather. ”

Gu Qiluo had expected Xiao Jiangbei to say this, in fact, Mama Yue also knew in her heart that her master was a man who didn't rub sand in her eyes, but when she thought that such a good opportunity could not be missed, she made a heart. immediately jumped to his feet and cried: "I don't believe it, I don't believe that my lord is so ruthless now, it's clear that you said it." Who knows if you really see the master? ”

Qiu Rong was angry, and was about to argue, when he saw Gu Qiluo slap the table and said sharply: "Enough." If Mama doesn't believe it. Do you want me to call the second master here and let you listen to what he says in person, so that you will die? ”

Mama Yue held that glimmer of hope, nothing more than hoping that Gu Qiluo couldn't help herself from making such a fuss, so she left her behind, but when she heard the other party say this, she knew that she was out of play, because a resentful light flashed in her eyes. But he didn't dare to say any more, and retreated with a disgraced face.

"Grandma. This old man already has a grudge against you, and if you get involved with your wife after you go back, if you make any trouble again, it's really hard to guard again, so it's better to let her stay, and the slave just looks at it. Xinghua watched Mama Yue go away angrily, and she was really a little worried.

"No, no matter what she says, she is also a slave, if I can't even control her, it is better to stay in Liaodong honestly." Gu Qiluo picked up the tea and took a sip leisurely, secretly thinking in her heart: Although she knows Xiao Jiangbei's temperament very well, but if a woman is paranoid, it is also crazy, he is a man in the end, and Xinghua has only one person and one pair of eyes, so it is up to her to take all the dishonest people away, lest one accidentally return to Beijing in the future, and he will have to bring a concubine, which will really drain his appetite.

In a blink of an eye, the day of departure came, early in the morning, Gu Qiluo finished freshening up, and Xiao Jiangbei said goodbye, Cheng Tong Zhong Chunfeng Ying Feihong and others came to see him off, Zhong Chunfeng was originally going to follow her back to Beijing, but this time Cheng Tong had a tough attitude, so he didn't succeed.

"Why hasn't my brother come yet?" Standing beside the carriage, Chunyu muttered, secretly complaining that Zeng Yuan was unreliable, could he not come to see him off at such a time? Even if he doesn't care about his sister, but his grandmother is always his proprietor, how can he get the support and his tail to the sky.

was muttering, I saw Zeng Yuan with a person riding a horse hurried, in Liaodong for nearly a year, his riding skills have long been proficient, and the little old man next to him who looks about fifty years old riding skills is not weak, at this time the two of them stepped forward, Zeng Yuan said to Xiao Jiangbei and Gu Qiluo: "Second master, grandma, this is Cheng Qi's uncle, he wants to go to Beijing to find friends, I heard that grandma is going back to Beijing, he wants to follow the team, I don't know what the second master and grandma think?" ”

"Cheng Qi's uncle?" Gu Qiluo glanced at the little old man, and saw that the other party's white hair was neatly bundled, and his eyes were as calm as a deep pool, and his bearing was calm, giving people a very reliable feeling. Seeing Gu Qiluo looking over, he bowed down and said: "Little Lao'er wants to go to Beijing to find an old friend, because he doesn't have a lot of money to do, so he wants to follow his grandmother and his party, and the road is better, once there are bandits and thieves, when he sees his grandmother's team of guards, he won't dare to get close." ”

Xiao Jiangbei frowned slightly, looked at Zeng Yuan, and the meaning was very clear: Is this person reliable?

Zeng Yuan also knew that he was really a little reckless today, but he couldn't help it. I had to clench my fists and said: "Master and grandma rest assured, this Liu Zhong is indeed Cheng Qi's uncle, that kid's injury is almost healed now, his Lingzhi was originally bought by a pharmacist at a large price, but he refused to sell it, he just wanted to enter Xiao Gu Yaozhuang with this, and Doctor Ying had already agreed." Today, his uncle went to Beijing to look for someone, and he asked me to bring his uncle to find his grandmother, and I beg you to take care of him. ”

Gu Qiluo had a good impression of Cheng Qi, although that young man was a man who wanted money at a young age, but he was able to stand up at a critical moment and sacrifice his life to buy time for his companions to escape, which shows his noble character. Therefore, after listening to Zeng Yuan's words, and seeing that this Liu Zhongzhong did not look like some ill-intentioned villain, he had a plan in his heart, so he said to Xiao Jiangbei: "Okay, just take him, the more than 20 personal guards you gave me are all strong in martial arts, and they have followed you from birth to death, and no one dares to beat me in the future." ”

Xiao Jiangbei is still very relieved of Lang Ning and the others, although there are only more than 20 personal guards, but the 200 ordinary bandits are not the opponents of these more than 20 people, not to mention that although the people are in hardship today, they are still peaceful, Zeng Yuan is not a reckless person, since he brought someone here, he must have investigated, so he thought about it for a while, and then nodded in agreement.

At the moment, he said goodbye again, Xiao Jiangbei sent out dozens of miles, according to his heart, he only hated to send his beloved wife back to the capital, but he had to say goodbye to him for thousands of miles, and in the end, Gu Qiluo was angry, so he finally stopped the large loyal dog husband, seeing the horse convoy disappearing into the sky, Xiao Jiangbei only felt that his heart was empty, how could he think of a way to be transferred back to the capital in advance? Otherwise, if I wait until three or five years later and then return to Beijing, how can I clean up my lovesickness.

Not to mention that Second Master Xiao looked at the sky from afar, and almost turned into a wife stone. It is only said that Gu Qiluo's team of people was worried about the situation in the Hou Mansion, so they hurried all the way to hurry, and Rao did not arrive in the capital until nearly a month later. This is also thanks to the fact that there is no snow on the road, otherwise it will be muddy after the snow and the road will be difficult to walk, so I don't know how long it will be delayed to return to Beijing.

After entering the city from the east gate of the capital, Liu Zhong stepped forward to resign.

Because of Cheng Qi, Gu Qiluo also took good care of him along the way, but what surprised her even more was the little old man's business talent, he didn't talk much along the way, and often only interjected when he and Qiurong Chunyu and others talked about the prospects and layout of the two trade routes in the capital Liaodong and the south of the capital city, and often in one sentence. Because of this, Qiu Rong Chunyu muttered a lot behind her back, only saying that Liu Zhong wanted to make do with her female dependents, which was really disgusting, but Gu Qiluo was keenly aware that the other party was doing this, and it seemed that she just wanted to get her own appreciation, which made her a little strange, but considering the identity of the other party and her current family background, she was still ready to gamble.

At this time, she heard Liu Zhong say that she was going to find someone, so she smiled and said: "According to what you said, you have not been in Beijing for many years, and you are not familiar with the life here. ”

Liu Zhong smiled honestly: "Little Lao'er's careful thinking has been seen by grandma, if you refuse, not only will you not say it, if grandma really believes in me and no longer cares about me, then I don't want to sleep on the streets?" In that case, I am grateful to my grandmother. I don't know when I can find the people I am looking for, if my grandmother has any sending, even if I explain to the little old man, I dare not say anything else, I still have some experience in this business. ”

Gu Qiluo smiled: "Okay, I also have this intention, since you are willing, it will be better." I plan to open two southern goods stores in the capital, and I will hand them over to you when the time comes. If you have nothing to do in the Baiwei Pavilion these days, you might as well write a charter for me to decide. ”

Liu Zhong readily agreed, so Gu Qiluo arranged for a subordinate to take him to the Baiwei Pavilion to find Shi Gui, and the caravan here went to the Hou Mansion in the north of the town.

"Madam, yesterday Ding Zhu came to report that the second grandmother and her party would be able to arrive home before noon today, and the slave maid just saw that the eldest grandmother had gone out with the girls and Aunt Xiang, should we also ......?"

Honglu stood behind Fang Qionghua and whispered, but when she saw that the master was only holding the lid of the teacup with her hand, she sneered and said, "What should we do too?" Go and meet her too? Hehe! I am not the weak woman who looks up to people's snorts and looks at people's faces, but the wife of the head of the Beihou Mansion in this town, how can I have a reason to welcome her? She came to see me about the same. (To be continued......)
