"Yi girl, do you know?" Gu Jiayi couldn't help but feel nervous when she heard the old lady call her name. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Speaking of Chu Yucheng, she had to get to the origin of her relationship with the Chu family, but she really couldn't remember what she had offended Chu Yucheng, it seemed that Chu Yucheng didn't want to see her the first time they met.

"She is the daughter of Chu Jinwen of the Chu family in Tuocun." Gu Jiayi could only say this.

"Chu Jinwen? This name is familiar, Tuocun? Yi girl, you have been there for three years, do you know this Chu Yucheng? ”

"I've seen it once or twice."

"Once or twice, it shouldn't be familiar, why did she target our Gu family?"

"Jiayi doesn't know."

The old lady nodded, with a thoughtful look, and then asked the few people present to retreat, the second aunt and Gu Jiaming each went back to their own courtyards, Gu Jiayi looked at He Can and did not move.

"You don't have anything to say?" Gu Jiayi asked He Can, after coming in, he was quiet from beginning to end, without moving or screaming.

"Where's my mother?"

"Didn't my maid just say that she sent your mother home."

He Can hung his head and was silent.

Gu Jiayi suddenly thought that at that time in Tuo Village, for the sake of the dead chickens at home and the rotten jujube trees transplanted by the Yuan family, the bastard boy who was splashing and rolling in He Zhihao's house, couldn't help but laugh softly.

He Can glanced at her and lowered his head again.

"Yi girl, accompany me out of the house for a walk." The old lady said suddenly.

"Yes, old lady, what about He Can?"

The old lady paused and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Gu Jiayi was a little soft-hearted, after all, He Can was also used, but she thought of it, Yuan's ugly and vicious face, and He Can's unstoppable arrogance yesterday, shouldn't such a person be punished and retributed? Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a chord, "Old lady, we can't shield criminals, although he is my cousin, but if he comes to steal things, he is breaking the law, and he should be treated equally and sent to the government to do things according to the law." ”

The old lady's eyes flashed with a light, and she nodded, and immediately a little servant came over to take He Can down.

According to the Gu family's financial resources in Rose City, the county official also had to give three points of face, not to mention that the officials and businessmen protect each other, and the Gu family has to tie up with the county master on weekdays, so the two can be said to be in harmony. He Can is a thief sent by the Gu family, even if there is no actual evidence, the government looks at the face of the Gu family, and I am afraid that it will not be able to make He Can feel better, but I am afraid that He Can will have to shed his skin if he does not die, and he can only spend the second half of his life in prison, and the Chu family will not be able to save him.

It's still early, and many of the shops on the street have just opened.

"Where does the old lady want to go?"

"Go to that noodle stall and sit down," said the old lady as she walked over, "When I was young, I used to eat noodles when I went to business with your grandfather. ”

Gu Jiayi smiled, "The old lady loves to eat, Jiayi will also make noodles for the old lady when she goes back, my craftsmanship is good." ”

"You little girl teasing my old woman, when did you go down to the kitchen when you came back?"

"That's because the chef in our house is too good, Jiayi has no use, when I was in Tuo Village, I didn't cook by myself, and my uncle also praised me for my good skills!"

The old lady's smile was a little restrained, and her face was stunned, "You have also suffered in Tuo Village."

She looked at Gu Jiayi, and suddenly said again, "By the way, I remember it, that Chu Jinwen's wife Guan Shi, when your mother was there, she often came to the door, your mother told me that Guan Shi wanted her son to marry you, the Chu family is rich, Chu Jinwen's brother is still an official, but I think that although the Chu family is rich and powerful, in the end it is also a countryman, although our Gu family is Bai Ding, but how to say it is also the richest man in the city, I think it is better to wait for you to grow up and find you a good family in the city, so I didn't agree to that family affair at that time." ”

Hearing this, Gu Jiayi couldn't help but put down her chopsticks, "Old lady, actually, in fact, my mother has already agreed to this family affair back then, and I have already met the Chu family in Tuo Village." ”

"Have you seen it in Tuo Village? He's a country boy, how can you marry him, it's ridiculous! The old lady was a little angry.

"No, old lady, he works in the Gui Kee Restaurant in the city, and everyone calls him 'Little Boss'."

The old lady pondered, her face softened slightly, "Isn't it Chu Chenfeng that you are talking about?" ”

Gu Jiayi nodded.

"I've met that kid twice, and one is talented, on par with your brother-in-law." The old lady suddenly changed her complexion again, and she smiled and praised it.

Looking at the old lady's fickle face, Gu Jiayi couldn't help but smile bitterly in her heart.

After eating the noodles, Gu Jiayi walked casually with the old lady again.

Unconsciously, she walked to the door of a grain store, and the plaque read "Sun Ji", and the old lady walked in, although Gu Jiayi was puzzled, she still followed in.

"The old lady is here, please take a seat." A few guys hurriedly gave up their seats and poured tea and water.

Gu Jiayi looked at the guys chatting with the old lady and such a familiar attitude, and couldn't help but be a little puzzled, this grain shop doesn't seem to be the Gu family's property, but the old lady is so familiar with the guys here, she should come often, and I don't know why the old lady came to other people's shops?

"This is my little granddaughter, who is eleven this year," the old lady pulled Gu Jiayi with a smile, "I'm getting older and older, and my health is not as good as before, I want her to learn to manage accounts in this shop, so that she can take over my class in the future." ”

Gu Jiayi glanced at the old lady in surprise, what does this mean?

Those guys looked at Gu Jiayi, their eyes became more and more enthusiastic, and they saluted her together.

"Yi girl, I didn't ask you what you meant, so I made an assertion, you won't object, right?" The old lady looked at Gu Jiayi with a slight smile in her eyes with scrutiny.

In fact, this is an opportunity, no matter what the old lady's purpose is, since she said so, it is impossible to object to her face, it is better to accept it and take one step at a time.

Thinking of this, Gu Jiayi hurriedly got up and saluted, "The old lady is willing to give Jiayi a chance, and Jiayi will definitely live up to her expectations." ”

The old lady smiled deeply, and said to the man, "Bring last month's account book." ”

Gu Jiayi looked at the decoration of the shop, which was simple and simple, very ordinary, no different from ordinary grain shops.

"I lost 30,000 taels last month." The old lady said lightly while looking at the account book.

"Yes, there is a new grain store nearby, the competition is getting bigger and bigger, they don't know where to buy the goods, the purchase price is very low, the price is lower than ours, the quality is similar to ours, many people are willing to go to their house to buy."

The old lady nodded, "I see." Yi girl, do you have any opinions? ”

Gu Jiayi thought for a while, "I need time to investigate." ”

She walked over and looked at the 'Bai Ji' grain shop that the guy pointed out, what a coincidence, it was actually opened at the opposite door of 'Sun Ji'.

Gu Jiayi gestured, "Xunfang, go over there and have a look." ”

After half a cup of tea, Xun Fang came back, and the results of the investigation also found that there was nothing special about Bai Ji Grain Shop, but the selling price was indeed lower than that of Sun Ji.

Xun Fang hesitated for a moment and leaned closer to Gu Jiayi's ear, "Actually, the boss behind Bai Ji is his uncle's wife." ”
