Gu Yaolian didn't want to know what happened in the Muxiang Courtyard at all, but Xiuzhi was very persistent in telling Gu Yaolian, for fear that Gu Yaolian wouldn't understand how miserable Pei Yao's situation was.

If it was in the past, Gu Yaolian would naturally pity Pei Jiao, and would even send some silver over to let Pei Jiao take care of the people around him.

But now the humiliation that Pei Jiao has experienced is all caused by Pei Jiao.

If Pei Jiao is in Tangtang Zhai, he has no second heart for Aunt Ren and Grandma, and he doesn't want to use the people in the third room, even if the Ji family is dissatisfied with Pei Jiao, he will never trample on Pei Jiao as fiercely as he does now.

After a few years, Aunt Ren will take the initiative to discuss with the people in the third room to find a suitable family for Pei Jiao, so that Pei Jiu can completely escape from Ji's control.

If her uncle and old uncle both come forward, it would be difficult for the Ji family to turn their faces directly, after all, they would just marry a concubine she didn't like.

It's just that Pei Jiao also understands that if this is the case, the door for the husband she marries in Japan will not be too high.

She is either a businesswoman or married to a showman and a showman.

This life will go smoothly, there will be no more waves, and there will be no great grievances.

But Pei Ji was unwilling-

Although she is a concubine, her appearance and talent are not outstanding, but her heart is higher than the sky.

How could she be willing to live her life like this.

Therefore, even if Pei Jiao could guess that his biological mother died in the hands of the Ji family, he still worked for the Ji family.

Pei Ji wants to get Ji's favor, and in the future, he will be able to rely on Ji's affirmation and marry into a wealthy family, and even do not hesitate to separate from Aunt Ren's grandmother.

Pei Ji wants to marry better, which is not wrong. But Pei Ji shouldn't trample on people who are good to her and get a better life.

What kind of person is Ji? Pei Jiao knew better than Gu Yaolian.

If you confess that a thief is your mother, you will be devoured.

"The eldest lady has always been generous, fair and fair, she must have a reason to punish her third cousin like this." Gu Yaolian said to Xiuzhi, "As a junior, how can I talk about elders?"

"Xiuzhi, you are also from the Ji family, why are you helping your third cousin speak now? If you don't know, you think you grew up with your third cousin. ”

Xiuzhi didn't expect Gu Yaolian to use such words to gag herself, and she said again, "But the third miss will return late because you forgot that she is still in the Liu family, girl." ”

"It's her who wants to follow the girl to Liu's house." Xiangming interrupted Xiuzhi's words, "When the girl sent Miss Kong back to Kong's house, she didn't tell Miss Three. But then someone came to the flower hall to spread the word to us, saying that the girl had left. ”

"I immediately went back to Bofu after learning about this, but what about the third lady?"

"It's the third lady who wants to continue to wait at Liu's house alone, and it's because she doesn't want to leave."

Xiangming said, sneering, "Also, the dim sum, fruits and tea put out by the Liu family are all first-class and good, why is she willing to leave?" ”

Gu Yaolian coughed lightly, and Xiangming stopped her mouth, but Xiuzhi's face was a little embarrassed.

Xiuzhi has been serving by Mrs. Ji's side for many years, how can she not see what the truth is.

Everything is as Xiangming said, it is Pei Jiao himself who is unwilling to leave Liufu.

Pei Jiao was reluctant to leave, firstly because she left by herself, and the Liu family would not set a car for her, and secondly, because Pei Jiao wanted to wait for Gu Yaolian to go back to pick her up, so as to keep Gu Yaolian and create opportunities for the Liu family.

Pei Jiao did not hesitate to eat the tea and fruit in question and made a stomach upset.

Only in this way would Gu Yao pity Pei Jiao if he was really uncomfortable, so he would not be suspicious and stay in the Liu family.

But people are not as good as heaven, Gu Yaolian did not go back to Liu's house to pick up Pei Jiao at all, but began to distance himself from Pei Jiao.

"Alright." Gu Yaolian appropriately relieved Xiuzhi, "What I told you before, has it been done?" ”

"That's it." Xiuzhi turned around and took out a food box not far away, put it in front of Gu Yaolian and opened it. The inside of the food box was not food, but a basically worn book, "Girl, what do you want to see...... Look at these things. ”

Xiuzhi is literate, and he knows better that Gu Yaolian bought these books, which are all things that can't be put on the table.

At this time, she somewhat understood why Gu Yaolian and the people of the Yuan family got closer, because Xiangming's father Yuan Jiu was watching several bookstores for Gu Yaolian's biological mother.

"Keep your voice quiet, don't let your aunt know." Gu Yaolian pretended to be uneasy, "My aunt won't let me read these books." ”

Xiuzhi sneered.

It's no wonder that Wang Ruolan didn't let Gu Yaolian read these books, Gu Yaopian was a beautiful girl, and actually read some love books about fox fairies, ghosts, and so on.

Gu Yaolian bought these books a few days ago, and happened to meet Pei Xiao, the uncle of the Pei family, and later Gu Yaolian spent a lot of money to buy good wine from the Liu family's shop, so that Pei Xiao agreed to hide it from her.

As an elder, Pei Xiao kindly reminded Gu Yaolian not to buy these bad books anymore.

Although Gu Yaolian agreed on the surface, she asked Xiuzhi to continue to help her buy these books.

In the Bofu, the embroidered branches are raw faces, and no one will notice the abnormality.

"The slave didn't tell anyone." Xiuzhi frowned, "But today, the slave met the little maid Changming next to the uncle." ”

"Ahh Gu Yao was uneasy, "Why are you careless?" ”

Xiuzhi is also very aggrieved, she is already very careful.

But Uncle Pei has the same preferences as most men in the world, and he likes women who are addicted to alcohol and have good colors.

There are only a few famous taverns in the capital, and the Liu family tavern next to the bookstore run by Yuan Jiu is also one of them.

She frequently bought books for Gu Yaolian, how could she not meet Pei Xiao and the people around Pei Xiao.

"What can I do?" Gu Yao sighed, "If the uncle tells my aunt, I will be punished." ”

"Uncle won't tell the third wife." Xiangwei, who was on the side, finally interjected, "The uncle didn't leak the news last time, why don't you send another pot of wine to the uncle like before?" ”

Xiangming raised her hand and poked Xiangwei's forehead, "Stupid girl, the pot of Yutang brew that the girl gave to the uncle last time cost five or six taels of silver." ”

"Is it so expensive?" Xiangwei raised her voice in surprise, "Girl, we can't send it anymore." ”

Gu Yaolian shook his head, "No, I don't want my aunt to know, so let's send it." ”

"That's it for a month, Miss." Xiangwei was very distressed, "Anyway, the slave won't help the young lady to deliver wine." ”

She thought about it for a while and dragged Xiangming and said, "Sister Xiangming, you can't help Miss either." ”

Xiangwei and Gu Yaolian grew up together, and they know better than anyone how many monthly cases and private rooms Gu Yaolian has, so she naturally feels sorry for the silver.

Xiangming was raised as a steward, and she knew better that this was not a small number.

They all felt that their young lady might as well be punished by Wang Ruolan, after all, it was better to read less of this book.

Xiuzhi knew that this errand was going to be handed over to herself.

Sure enough, at night, Gu Yaolian saw the embroidered branch alone, handed her a pot of bamboo leaf green, and asked her to send it to the big room, to be quietly handed over to Pei Xiao.

She even instructed Xiuzhi, "Be sure to hide it from others." ”

Xiuzhi can only agree.

When Xiuzhi left with the wine, Xiangming entered the house, holding a letter in her hand.

"Girl, do you think Xiuzhi really has anything to do with the uncle?" Xiangming frowned, "I look at her, I'm afraid of the eldest lady and Mama He." ”

Gu Yao smiled pitifully, "Not now, who will know later?" When she is in trouble, won't she be desperate? ”

"Wait, as long as we give her a chance to get close to the uncle, she will definitely move this thought. Is there a cat in the world that sees a fish but does not touch it? ”

She always remembered that the reason why Xiuzhi was sent to Bofu was because Mrs. Ji wanted Pei Xiao to have an eldest son early.
