Gu Qingzhu thought about it, but he didn't come up with any results, so he had to give up for the time being.

The so-called, the body is not afraid of the shadow slanted, if there is really something, it is natural that the soldiers will block, and the water will cover it, she doesn't believe it, and the evil can suppress the right.

Gu Daya has been very concerned since then, but day by day is like a smooth flow, others still avoid them, Gu Erni has come back to work, nervous for some time, seeing that nothing is a big deal, this heart slowly let go.

The rainy season passed, as soon as the sun cleared, the heat rushed up, and the work of reeling silk became more and more difficult to do.

The silk reeling pot should always keep the water temperature, the fire in the stove can not be extinguished, and there is a charcoal basin for drying lines under the silk reeling machine, twenty eye stoves, twenty pots of charcoal, the workshop at this time is simply a big steamer on the fire, as long as you stay for an hour, the whole person is like fishing up in the water.

Mama Guo was extremely anxious, so she asked the kitchen to cook mung bean soup, and went to the medicine store to prepare Huoxiang Zhengqi pills, but with little effect.

Many girls can't do it, some can only work half a day in the morning, and some even pack up their bags and leave, only Gu Qingzhu is still insisting, Gu Qingzhu is afraid that Qingying is hot, so she only lets her stay in the backyard to play by herself, fortunately, she is familiar, Xiaolai occasionally helps take care of it, and the mother-in-law in the kitchen is also good to her.

The weather was hot, Mu Jincheng hadn't been here for several days, and Mama Guo suddenly felt that there was a lot less to do, and even the mother-in-law in the kitchen was relieved.

Suddenly, the front yard suddenly became noisy, and Mama Guo hurriedly took the little one to see, and saw Mu Jincheng and someone rushing to a closed carriage.

"Third master, what are you ......?" asked Mama Guo suspiciously.

"Tell the girls to stay out of the way, I'll have someone bring ice in." Mu Jincheng's front placket was already drenched with sweat, and he wiped the sweat on his forehead.

"Ice?!" Mama Guo was taken aback.

In the hot summer of the Great Li Kingdom, the water supervisor usually hires a large number of laborers in the cities to mine the ice in the river, hide it in various ice cellars, and then take it out and distribute it for sale in the summer.

Although Ningjiang City is the capital of Liu, not everyone can use ice, except for the limited amount of ice allocated according to the official position, the others have to rely on the silver spent in vain to buy, and the price also seems to rise with the weather.

Ordinary people can only enjoy it in the serious master's house, and in a place like a workshop, how long can ice be used in such a luxury?

"Hurry up, I'm going to die of heat!" Mu Jincheng snatched Baoying's fan and fanned himself hard.

"Ah...... Okay, good ......" Mama Guo came back to her senses, responded in a stack, and turned around to let Xiaolai run to inform the girls in the workshop.

Xiaolai rushed away, although the girl hid, but she couldn't suppress her curiosity, she was half-hidden, and looked secretly.

After a while, seven or eight small servants unloaded three large pieces of ice and three large blue and white vats, and soon drove the carriage away.

The girls poured into the workshop at once, looked at the ice cubes in the vat, and curiously touched the east and west, and the hand was smooth and cold, and it was really winter ice!

It was much cooler in the workshop, and the girls began to work happily, and even those who had their usual days of rest in the afternoon came.

In the huge room, there were only three cylinders of ice, and Gu Erni was sharp to find that there was a cylinder next to Gu Qingzhu's silk reeling machine, and her seat was only the coolest.

This discovery was like a dough, and it quickly fermented, and spread wildly among everyone except a few of them, and everyone was envious and jealous of her.

Since then, people have sent ice every day, and Mu Jincheng has stayed in the workshop every day, and Mama Guo asked him in a roundabout way, and he only said lightly that he bought it with the silver of the month, so that the weaving workshop could complete the silk reeling earlier.

This is said lightly, Mama Guo is also an old man in the Tan family, but her heart is very clear, not to mention, how expensive the price of ice is, it is not easy to find a way to buy ice, this is all included in the price of reeling silk, that is the sky-high price of silk, fortunately, listen to his meaning, it is all his extra subsidy, not on the account of the weaving mill.

On this day, Mu Jincheng didn't come to the weaving workshop for some reason, and Mama Guo also went back to the Tan family's compound with Xiaolai, but fortunately, everyone was in a hurry to earn wages, but they were all right, and when it was almost noon, the mother-in-law who was guarding the door suddenly came to call Gu Qingzhu, saying that her younger brother was here.

Gu Qingzhu only thought that Gu Qingsong was coming, so he hurriedly left his work and trotted all the way.

When she arrived at the gate of the hospital, she saw a strange young man standing outside, not her younger brother Gu Qingsong.

Gu Qingzhu was a little surprised, took a half step back and asked, "Who are you, what are you looking for me?" ”

"Sister, I'm Lu Xiaoqi, you don't recognize me, a few days ago, you bought my shrimp for 200 yuan." The swarthy boy smiled, revealing two rows of neat teeth.

"Ah, it's you, is your mother better?" Gu Qingzhu thought about it at this time, and the young man in front of him seemed to be thinner and darker.

"I listened to you, grabbed a few pairs of medicines, my mother drank it, and it was really much better, and now I can do laundry and cook at home." The boy smiled brightly.

"Okay, then, you're here to get the barrel today?" Gu Qingzhu then asked.

She was deeply touched that the poor family's life was not good, and they cherished every bit of their belongings, and although the bucket was old, it was still usable.

"No, my mother thinks that you spent 200 yuan to buy my shrimp, and you lost it, I just caught some fish to sell today, and my mother must let me send you a big one, otherwise, she is uneasy." Lu Xiaoqi grabbed his hair and said with some embarrassment.

"I don't lose at all, your shrimp is worth that price!" Gu Qingzhu said firmly, she won the game in one fell swoop with those shrimps, and no amount of money could buy this kind of relief.

"But......" Lu Xiaoqi was embarrassed and became more and more cramped and uneasy.

"Fish, take it back and make up for your mother, you see, I'm just working here, and I can't make food at all." In order to make him feel more at ease, Gu Qingzhu thought of an excuse.

Lu Xiaoqi glanced at the courtyard and said with some hesitation: "If I bring the fish back, my mother will definitely blame me." ”

"It's better like this, it's market day today, I'll go with you to sell the fish, and you can catch some medicine for your mother, wouldn't it be good?" Gu Qingzhu thought for a while.

"But my mother asked me to give it to you." Lu Xiaoqi twisted his eyebrows, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

"That's it, you stand and don't go, wait for me to get the bucket." After Gu Qingzhu finished speaking, without waiting for him to say anything, he turned around and ran away.

When she came out with the bucket, she bumped into Gu Erni head-on.

"Okay, you actually took the things in the weaving workshop to outsiders, you really ate inside and out!" Gu Erni grabbed Gu Qingzhu's arm, like catching a thief.

"What nonsense are you talking about, it's not a weaving mill thing." Gu Qingzhu shook off her hand.

"Hmph, I know that you are not a safe person, secretly making clothes for wild men in Gujiaao, and when you come here, you seduce the third master and don't say anything, but also steal things from the weaving workshop and paste them upside down, you are really cheap!" Gu Erni said disdainfully.

"What did you say!" Gu Qingzhu finally understood that what those people were talking about behind their backs turned out to be spreading such rumors.

At this time, the girls in the weaving workshop all came out of work in twos and threes, and when they saw them so noisy, they all gathered around to watch, and they were in groups of three or five, whispering.

"Am I wrong? Didn't you get caught and escape from Gujiaao overnight? Gu Erni saw that there were more and more onlookers, and she couldn't help but say loudly.

"There is a kind of person in this world, who is used to reversing black and white, your family is lazy and lazy, taking advantage of my going out to sell silkworm cocoons, blatantly stealing money from my house, and if you don't steal it, you want to use the next three indiscriminate methods to force me to hand over the money, but unfortunately you go out early, otherwise you can see how your door was split in half." Gu Qingzhu snorted coldly.

"You talk nonsense!" Gu Erni screamed like a cat with its tail stepped on.

"Qingzhu is right, you don't believe it, go home and take a look!" Gu Daya crossed her waist and squeezed in.

"Hmph, don't try to fool me! You have done ugly things and don't know how to restrain them, there is more than one case here, others can see it clearly, and you can't rely on it if you want to! Gu Erni raised her voice and shouted.

"That's right, sluts are just shameless, they dare to drill into a man's arms the first day, if I don't live a long time ago!" Jia Min sneered on the side.

"Hey, there are benefits of drilling, you see she won the game with just a bowl of noodles, the first one passed the assessment, the first one got paid, who can have her limelight, and we, the honest people who do our duty, can only go to the toilet." Peng Pearl said sourly.

"No, even the ice tank is specially given to her, isn't it the benefit of exchanging that." Jia Min giggled, although she didn't say it explicitly, everyone understood what she was saying.

"You bloody mouths!" Gu Qingzhu's air was red.

"It's not enough to have these, and I hooked up with a young one outside, and I'm coming to the door today, tsk, you're going to send him away with the things of the weaving workshop." Gu Erni said with a wicked smile.

"Gu Erni, you ruined Qingzhu's reputation, see how I beat you!" Gu Daya rushed up and grabbed her by the collar.

"Help, everyone has seen it, Gu Daya has beaten someone!" Gu Erni didn't hide, screaming at the top of her voice.

"Big girl!" Gu Qingzhu grabbed Gu Daya and shook his head.

Although Gu Qingzhu was angry, she quickly calmed down, she remembered what Yang Da Niu said, Gu Erni had grown her ability, she had been brewing for so long, and she just wanted to provoke Gu Da Ya to fight, and then she had a reason to sue, and asked Mama Guo to punish them all to clean the toilet, so that she would be ashamed.

"Hmph, I'm right, you're a bitch!" Gu Erni saw that she was not fooled, and continued to provoke.

"Gu Erni, I won you, it was because I did a good job, as for the third master to save me, it was because Xiao Ji didn't concentrate on holding the ladder, which caused me to fall from a high place when I hung the lanterns, as for me to drill his arms, it's really not counting, I know him, much earlier than this, not only quarreled with him, but also ate together, and even went to the small garden of the county government, how about it, what else do you have to say?" Gu Qingzhu said contemptuously.

She fell into Mu Jincheng's arms that day, only Xiao Yuan and Xiao Ji were present at that time, Xiao Ji was still the culprit, the last game, she lost money gambling with others, these words must have been told by her to Gu Erni, as for Xiao Ji talking nonsense, or Gu Erni is a fool, it is unknown, but Xiao Ji must not be able to escape the involvement, she naturally does not have to maintain her face.

"Wow, I see!"

"Xiao Ji is too unreliable!"

"I just don't think Gu Qingzhu is like that kind of person!"

The onlookers were chattering, and the wind direction slowly changed in another direction.
