Chapter 694: Something Goes Wrong

She walked to a clothing store with broken steps, and before she walked in, she saw Xiao Er walking out with a sad face.

As soon as he saw Gu Mingzhu, his face turned pale and he hurriedly walked back.

"Stop." Gu Mingzhu immediately stopped her.

Why do you hide when you see her? In the past, Xiao Er greeted her with a smile on her face.

"Miss Gu, are you here?" Xiao Er paused, his face froze, he slowly turned around, and greeted with a smile.

These words made Gu Mingzhu unhappy, and she said with a sinking face: "Don't invite Miss Ben in yet." ”

The wind outside was strong, and even though Gu Mingzhu was wearing a cloak, there was still a cool breeze that slipped into her collar.

"Yes, it's Miss Gu, please." Xiao Er said politely.

Walking into the store, Gu Mingzhu sat down, raised his eyebrows and looked at the people in the store who came to buy fabrics, and said in surprise: "In the past, your store had the most prosperous business, but now what's going on?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Er's eyes sank, and he said in a low voice: "Miss Gu doesn't know, business is sluggish these days, it should be cold weather, and there must be a lot of people who come to buy clothes." ”

"But these days, the bazaar is full of people from the Yamen Mansion, so what other distinguished guests are coming?" Xiao Er said with a sad face.

Hearing this, Gu Mingzhu also bowed slightly: "What about your shopkeeper?" ”

"I'm not satisfied with Miss Gu, my shopkeeper has been weak recently, and he's lying down to rest." Xiao Er said word by word.

Gu Mingzhu sat upright, didn't say a word, and looked at the store with a faint gaze.

Immediately, Xiao Er's face changed slightly, and he asked worriedly: "Earlier, my shopkeeper's shop paid all the rent, Miss Gu, why did you come here today?" ”

Thinking that Gu Mingzhu was here to collect rent, Gu Mingzhu was calm on his face, and said with a smile: "Miss Ben has nothing to do, come to the market for a walk." ”

Xiao Er breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, looking at Gu Mingzhu was only about fourteen years old, looking delicate and harmless on the outside, but he was a very shrewd person.

"Go get busy, Miss Ben and look around." Gu Mingzhu said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Xiao Er also brought tea and snacks with interest, and then got up and retreated.

There are so few people in the store that you don't necessarily have to sell a single piece of clothing in the middle of the day.

"Let's go, let's go to the jewelry store and have a look." Gu Mingzhu then got up and stepped out of the clothing shop.

"Yes." Qiao'er said respectfully.

She cautiously followed behind Gu Mingzhu and walked towards the jewelry store.

In front of the jewelry store, relatively speaking, people are very thankful, and most of the people who come to this store are women in twos and threes.

When Shopkeeper Li saw Gu Mingzhu coming, he personally came out to greet the guest and said, "Miss Gu, you are here, and you are not welcome." ”

"Shopkeeper Li, don't be polite." Gu Mingzhu walked into the store with broken steps.

"Miss Gu is here to ...... today"

Shopkeeper Li didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly.

"Miss Ben has nothing to do and wants to visit the market." Gu Mingzhu picked up a cup of tea and took a sip and said.

Hearing this, Shopkeeper Li's eyes flashed slightly, and he said softly: "In this case, why don't you come and give Miss Gu some melon and fruit snacks." ”

Xiao Er replied, and hurriedly got up and brought exquisite pastries for Gu Mingzhu.

"Miss Gu, you taste it slowly, and call me directly if you have something." Shopkeeper Li said politely.

And Gu Mingzhu bowed slightly, signaled Shopkeeper Li to step back, and said softly: "Hmm." ”

There are many more people who come to buy jewelry than people in clothing stores, and after a short time, Shopkeeper Li sells a few pieces of jewelry.

Qiao'er on the side couldn't help but be idle, looking carefully in the jewelry store, and couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the exquisite jewelry: "Miss, come and see, this jewelry looks good." ”

"Didn't Miss Ben give you much jewelry?" Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiao'er, and said softly.

Hearing this, Qiao'er muttered and said, "Miss's jewelry is all valuable items, so the slave is reluctant to take it out and wear it." ”

"You girl with sharp teeth." Gu Mingzhu quipped coquettishly.

While the two were talking, a slender figure walked into the store.

She was followed by a group of maids waiting.

"Let's all get up, don't choose the jewelry of my young lady." A slave spoke in a tough tone.

Everyone looked over with dissatisfaction.

At this time, Gu Chunhua had a smug look on his face, looked at the people in front of him with disdain, raised his eyebrows and said, "Miss Ben wants to choose jewelry, you can retreat if you are interested." ”

Seeing that Gu Chunhua was coming, everyone dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, who let Gu Chunhua marry into the landlord's mansion, that was the most famous landlord within a radius of hundreds of miles.

In addition, Zhao Hongcai is rich and wealthy, and he is also an overlord, so no one dares to offend the landlord's family, let alone easily anger Gu Chunhua.

Immediately, a few interesting women frequently gave way to a way.

Seeing this, the smugness on Gu Chunhua's face became more and more serious, she walked to the counter, and said arrogantly: "Take out the best and most exquisite jewelry in your store for Miss Ben." ”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper Li immediately stepped forward with a spring face and said politely: "This young lady, you sit down first, I will definitely bring you the best jewelry in this store." ”

Gu Chunhua nodded with satisfaction, turned around and sat down on the seat.

She picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put the teacup down in disgust, pouted and said, "This tea is bitter and hard to swallow, how can you let Miss Ben drink it?" ”

"It's good to marry into the landlord's mansion, and it won't take long for this mouth to be raised." A faint voice rang out.

At this time, Gu Chunhua looked sideways at the figure not far from him, and then saw that it was Gu Mingzhu, and her eyes flashed slightly.

Seeing Gu Mingzhu wearing that exquisite costume, a look of jealousy flashed in his eyes, but Gu Chunhua said politely on his face: "It's really a coincidence, I never thought I met my cousin here." ”

"I haven't seen my cousin for a long time, but that tricky temper hasn't changed at all." A light smile appeared on Gu Mingzhu's delicate cheeks, and she joked with a smile.

Hearing this, Gu Chunhua's face suddenly turned red, a look of shame flashed in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "My cousin is really good at laughing." ”

But Gu Mingzhu sat elegantly at the round table, with a relieved look on her delicate cheeks, and a cold and dusty temperament all over her body, such a woman was eye-catching.

"There has been turmoil in the market these days, and my cousin, as the general's wife, knows what has happened recently?" Gu Chunhua raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Mingzhu, and asked in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Gu Mingzhu's delicate cheeks showed a look of disdain, and he sneered: "How would I know? ”

"Cousin wanders out of the house so leisurely, isn't he afraid of the general's reproach?" Gu Chunhua had a touch of jealousy in his eyes, and said disdainfully.

As soon as the words fell, a sneering look flashed in Gu Mingzhu's eyes, and he said without a trace: "The general loves me the most, and will reproach me." ”
