When she came back from Peach Blossom Village, Qingshu ignored Gu Xian, even if Gu Xian took the initiative to talk to her, she ignored her.

Gu Xian was so sad that she cried and said to Mrs. Gu: "Mother, why do you say that this child is so magnanimous, I still hold a grudge after just saying a few words." ”

Old Lady Gu already knew what happened from Mother Chen: "Where were you when Qingshu was chased and beaten by that old woman?" ”

Gu Xian could say that she was stunned at the time, she was afraid that Mrs. Gu would scold her.

"Where were you when the old woman scolded Qingshu for being a short-lived ghost?"

Seeing that Gu Xian didn't speak, Old Lady Gu continued to ask: "Gu Xian, what kind of mother are you who can't even protect your own children when you are a mother?" You yourself are incompetent, what face do you have to accuse Qingshu? ”

Gu Xian was so scolded that she couldn't lift her head.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Fu Ran returned to Taifeng County. This time, in addition to Shen'er and Xin'er, there was an extra woman about forty years old by her side.

Fu Ran pointed to the woman beside him and said, "Old lady, Qingshu, this is Master Qin, she is Shen'er's uncle." ”

This Master Qin is very tall, and the person with a round face is also white and pure. He smiled without speaking, and looked like a good person.

Qingshu stood straight: "Master Qin is good." ”

Master Qin nodded and asked Qingshu, "Ah Ran told me that you want to hire someone for personal protection, and the employment period is one year, isn't it?" ”

Qingshu nodded.

Master Qin said: "One thousand taels of silver, if you agree, I will stay, if you don't agree, I won't bother." ”

Qingshu looked at Old Lady Gu.

Old Madam Gu didn't refuse but didn't agree, she just said, "Master Qin must be tired after such a long journey, can you go down first to rest and drink a cup of tea?" ”

She must first ask the details of this Master Qin and make sure that it is reliable before hiring.

Master Qin walked out briskly.

Fu Ran explained Master Qin's background in detail: "Master Qin is the teacher of the Women's Martial Arts Hall, so it is only fitting for her to protect Qingshu closely." ”

Old Lady Gu asked a little strangely, "Since you are teaching in the martial arts hall, how can you be willing to come and be a guard for Qingshu?" ”

If you can teach in the women's martial arts hall, you must be a person with a clean family background and good character.

Fu Ran explained with a smile: "Her son fell in love with a girl, and that girl was a good person and very diligent, that is, she had a pair of good money fathers and mothers. The Qin family asked the matchmaker to propose marriage, and the other party said that it would cost 600 taels of silver to marry him. Master Qin couldn't afford such a large amount of money and couldn't bear to let his son be left behind, so he recommended himself when he heard that I was looking for a female guard. ”

Old Madam Gu asked, "How is your temperament?" ”

She doesn't want to be with Qingshu if she has a bad temper, what if she spoils Qingshu.

Fu Ran smiled and said, "Don't worry, old lady, Master Qin's temper is very good. ”

Old Lady Gu asked again: "Then did you tell her about our going to the capital in April?" ”

"That's it. Master Qin said that she will follow you wherever you go within this year, but she will have to pay for her journey back to Fucheng in the future. ”

Although teaching in the women's martial arts hall is respected, she only has a salary of more than ten taels of silver per month, otherwise she would not be unable to come up with six hundred taels of silver.

Old Lady Gu nodded and said, "It's no problem to be detailed, and the contract will be drawn up later." ”

Qingshu asked, "Teacher, didn't you say that you want to pick two young female guards for me?" Why didn't you bring it back? ”

Fu Ran shook his head and said, "They either think the contract is too long, or they don't want to go to the capital with them. ”

Another thing I didn't say was that these girls didn't want to be a little girl's personal maid.

Qingshu was a little disappointed.

Fu Ran said with a smile: "Now that Master Qin is by your side, you don't have to worry about safety, and it's not too late to buy a few skilled servants when you come to the capital." ”

That's all there is to it.

Old Madam Gu invited Master Qin and said, "The reward of one thousand taels of silver is no problem. But during this time, you have to follow Qingshu closely, you will go wherever she goes? ”

Master Qin was a little strange and asked, "Didn't you say that you only follow when you go out?" ”

Old Madam Gu shook her head and said, "If you only go out alone, it is difficult to guarantee that others will not be suspicious." ”

Master Qin smiled and asked, "Old lady, someone wants to be unfavorable to the girl, right?" ”

If it weren't for someone who wanted to harm Qingshu, why would he spend such a lot of money to hire someone. And this is also the reason why she opened a high price. High risk, naturally to engage in returns.

Old Madam Gu shook her head and said, "No." It's just that I've been having nightmares and dreaming of bad things lately, and I can rest assured that you can follow her closely. ”

Qingshu was young, and Mrs. Gu didn't want anyone to notice her, so she took this matter on herself.

Master Qin nodded and said, "Yes." But I won't say Taifeng County, this will not make people suspicious. ”

Old Lady Gu said with a smile: "I will tell the outside world that you are the person I specially selected to teach Qingshu to speak official language." ”

Mother Qin nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Fu Ran came back, and Qingshu also began to officially attend classes. Without Yue Xiangxiang's company, Qingshu felt a little lonely.

In the evening, Qingshu asked Mrs. Gu: "Grandma, where does Sister Xiangxiang go to study?" ”

Fu Ran's lecture progress is very fast now, and fortunately, Qingshu has not slackened these days during the holidays, or he can't keep up.

Mrs. Gu said with a smile: "After the Lantern Festival, Xiangxiang will go to Xu's house to study with Mr. Xu." ”

Qingshu nodded and said, "That's good." Grandma, on the day of the Lantern Festival, the teacher will give me a holiday, so let's go to see the lanterns with Aunt Lan and them, okay? ”

Old Madam Gu nodded: "Okay, I'll send someone to talk to Weilan." ”

Qingshu studied hard all day, and Mrs. Gu was afraid that she would become a nerd, and she wished she would go out for a walk more.

The day before the Lantern Festival, Mrs. Gu said to Qingshu: "Qingshu, your grandfather's matter has been investigated. ”

Speaking of this, Old Lady Gu's expression was really indescribable: "That woman has already given birth to a son for your grandfather." ”

"Ah......h

It's already very surprising that there is a good match, but I didn't expect that there would be an illegitimate child.

Qingshu is a little strange, why didn't these things break out in his last life! Could it be because his father was a jinshi, and his grandfather didn't take the child back?

Old lady Gu said: "That woman lives in the town, and she lives in a simple house on weekdays. But your grandmother should have guessed that he had someone outside, but she shouldn't have known that the woman had given birth. ”

Qingshu said: "Grandma, I think I have to let my grandmother know about this. ”

Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "Your father is going to end in April, and making trouble will affect your father." ”

Qingshu shook his head and said, "Grandma, they won't tell my father." Grandma, it's not fair to me to hide this from my grandmother! ”

In fact, Qingshu is not worried about affecting Lin Chengyu at all. As far as her self-loyal father is concerned, how could he be affected by this kind of thing, of course, it would be better if he could make him fall off the list. Maybe he will fall off the list, and Cui Xueying's woman will not look down on him.
