One of the black-faced men suddenly pulled out a short knife from his waist, "Someone paid for your life, what do you say we should do?" ”

Gu Jiayi only felt that her heart was "knocking", spending money to buy her life, who was so generous? After thinking about it, this person must be the Zhou family, in order to avenge her daughter's disfigurement. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"I know, it was Mrs. Huo of Lingcheng who sent you, right? How much she gives you, I'll give you double, don't kill me! ”

The two men ignored it and walked over slowly.

"Help, help!"

"Little sister, don't scream, it's so remote here, it's so early, and it's so cold, no one will come to save you."

Seeing that the knife was about to be inserted into Gu Jiayi's chest, the black-faced killer suddenly stopped straight.

Gu Jiayi raised his head to look, but saw blood suddenly coming out of the mouths of the two of them, their eyes were white, and they were planted in front with a "bang".

"Ahh Gu Jiayi was so shocked that her feet jumped straight, and her soul was almost frightened.

She saw a silver needle stuck in the back of both of their necks, presumably injured by this hidden weapon. She subconsciously looked ahead again, and saw a dark figure standing on the high city wall, looking down at her condescendingly.

"Rongjing?"

But in the blink of an eye, the black shadow disappeared again, and when I looked closely, not even the bricks and tiles had ever moved, as if no one had ever set foot there.

No matter what, she had to get out of here quickly, and she trotted all the way to the idler's house.

"Miss Gu, why are you running in such a hurry?" Yang He put down the book in his hand and asked.

"Alas, don't mention it! On the way, I met a gang of robbers. Gu Jiayi briefly explained the situation just now.

When Yang He heard this, he couldn't help frowning, "You still don't want to go out alone in the future, remember to bring Miss Xunfang or Kapok Girl." ”

Gu Jiayi nodded, and said, "Let's talk about the renovation of the store." ”

Yang He paced, as if he had mustered up his courage, and said: "I think that a flower stand can be placed in this corner, and a painting can be hung on the wall over there, and then ......."

Yang He said in great detail, specifically about what kind of ornamentation should be on each table and chair.

Gu Jiayi listened and took notes, occasionally interjecting a few sentences, raising objections or questions.

An hour and a half passed, and the two of them settled on the decoration.

"Tea on tea, water is dry." Gu Jiayi lifted the empty teapot and shouted dissatisfiedly.

Yang He was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly asked the guy to go down and pour water.

"I really can't see that such a serious person as you can still think of so many tricks, it's pretty good." Gu Jiayi looked at the idea she had just written down.

Yang He touched his head, "What I thought, it's all the idea of the Kapok girl, and I don't want to tell you that she came up with it......"

Gu Jiayi laughed "poof", "No wonder Kapok often calls you 'wood'." ”

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door, and a woman leaned against the door frame, "Miss Gu Er still remembers me, what kind of business do you want to do this time?" ”

As she spoke, Sister Xiang twisted her waist and stepped forward, looked at Yang He a few times, and said with a smile: "This son is really handsome, remember to come to Huayue Tower when you have time." ”

Yang He's face turned red with a "brush", and he stammered: "You, why are you ......?"

"Okay, okay, Sister Xiang," Gu Jiayi hurriedly played the round, "Let's go inside and say." ”

Sister Xiang snorted delicately, got up and walked inside. Gu Jiayi patted Yang He's head comfortingly, signaled him to be calm, and followed Sister Xiang in.

"Miss Gu Er is not very old, this business is quite extensive, do you want our girls from Huayue Building to come out again this time to promote and perform for your tea shop?" Sister Xiang said with a smile.

"Sister Xiang is wrong this time, I want you girls from Huayue Tower to help me hang someone."

"Who?"

"Our parents in Rose City."

"You mean Lord Liu?" Sister Xiang was so surprised that her mouth opened.

Gu Jiayi nodded lightly.

Sister Xiang didn't answer, and glanced at Gu Jiayi up and down a few times, "Why?" ”

Gu Jiayi shrugged, "You don't care about this." So saying, he put a piece of gold on the table.

Sister Xiang glanced at the gold, swallowed her saliva, and suddenly waved her hand: "This thing can't help you, Mrs. Liu is such a pungent person, her mother's family is the Huo family in Lingcheng, and she is a powerful character, we can't afford to mess with Huayuelou." ”

Sister Xiang said, said that there was still something to do, and hurriedly left, for fear that if she stayed for a while longer, Gu Jiayi would be even more embarrassed for her.

Hmph, Mrs. Liu? A disfigured woman, no matter how powerful her mother's family is, what? The water spilled by the married daughter, the Liu family wants to divorce her, and the Huo family doesn't dare to do anything! It was Huo Zhiyun who bullied her first, she just came back with revenge, then the Zhou family also sent someone to kill her, and the other party was going to put herself to death, can't she fight back, and still sit back and wait to be killed? This time, she will definitely make Huo Zhiyun's life worse than death!

After returning to Gu's mansion, Gu Jiayi came to Xunfang and asked her to go to Liu Huisheng's mansion for three days.

Three days later, Xun Fang came back, saying that Liu Huisheng's work and rest were very regular, leaving early and returning late, all working in the yamen, at this time Huo Zhiyun was still recuperating in Huo Mansion in Lingcheng, this Liu Huisheng did not have a wife by his side, and he did not go out to sleep in the willows.

"I can't see that this Liu Huisheng is still a well-behaved man." Kapok said, biting down on the apple.

Gu Jiayi fell into deep thought, such a person is really difficult to do!

"By the way, master, you weren't there in the morning, and a son surnamed Bo sent someone to deliver an invitation."

Surname Bo? It must be Bo Lechen.

"What invitation?"

"I said I invited you to swim in the lake, what are you kidding, the lake is frozen, okay?"

Gu Jiayi glanced at her and took the invitation, sure enough, it was Bo Lechen's payment, and he really invited her to go to the lake, and the appointment was five days later.

"Then my sister is going too, right?"

"I don't know. But the eldest lady doesn't seem to have received an invitation, so I've already inquired. ”

Gu Jiayi looked at Kapok and smiled slightly.

"Okay, let's go together?"

"Don't."

Seeing that Kapok was so simply refused, Gu Jiayi couldn't help pretending to be annoyed, "You dare to refuse?" ”

Kapok had no choice but to say pitifully: "I was wrong, I listened to the master." ”

At this time, the carpenter has been found, and in the past few days, Gu Jiayi has basically gone to supervise the work every day, and then put forward some improvement plans, day by day, seeing that the progress is slowly speeding up.

Of course, Bo Lechen's appointment date will soon come.

There was no carriage to pick it up, so he only sent a small servant to guide the way, saying that it was one or two miles, but Gu Jiayi, Xun Fang, and Kapok walked for almost half an hour before arriving.

The lake was white, and a large part of it was frozen, and Gu Jiayi's heart was chilling.

"Swimming in the lake? Isn't it ice swimming? Kapok looked at the little guy and couldn't help but say angrily.

"I think it's sick." Gu Jiayi muttered quietly.
