For some reason, seeing Gu Jiu smile, Fang Qing always felt a little uneasy in his heart.

She suppressed this thought, turned around and sat down, and did not answer her question immediately, but said, "Mrs. Shizi should also sit." ”

Gu Jiu nodded in agreement and sat on the other side of the Luohan collapse.

The maid brought the tea, Fang Qing raised her hand with a smile, and said, "The best dragon well before the rain, Mrs. Shizi will try it?" ”

Gu Jiu smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and said lightly: "Aunt Fang's here, naturally, are all good things." ”

But in fact, her mouth didn't even touch the edge of the teacup, but she just made a gesture by covering it with the tea lid.

When Fang Qing heard this, he smiled and said, "If you like it, I will let the maid wrap some and send it to your room." ”

Hearing her words, Gu Jiu just smiled lightly: "Thank you aunt for your kindness, but there is no need." ”

Fang Qing saw that her attitude was lukewarm, and he was a little depressed in his heart for a while. Over the years, even the Lin family has not spoken to herself like this, and she doesn't want to be a junior now, but she has been pressed by her.

Thinking of this, Fang Qing couldn't help gritting his teeth, he didn't know what he thought, his face calmed down again, and said with a smile: "Actually, yesterday it was the old lady who gave me face, and it stands to reason that the lady is in charge of the affairs of the house, but she has been sick, so I will do it for me." ”

She said this in a vague manner, and then continued after a while: "But now the affairs of this mansion are actually not managed by me alone, and the two ladies in the second and third rooms also help manage part of it. I usually only take care of the stove and the purchase of needlework, and I have never interfered in those major items. ”

Old Madam Qin is indeed eccentric, but it doesn't mean that she will be eccentric to the point of completely losing her mind. For example, the large amount of financial and power expenditure is tightly held in their own hands, and as for the rest, these three families each have a share.

Naturally, whoever receives the affairs of the family can arrange for someone to pump oil and water, which is also a tacit thing.

Fang Qing is in charge of a piece of kitchen food, as well as clothes and other things in the Four Seasons Mansion, but it is the place with the most oil and water.

looks like it's not on the stage, but it's actually the best place to play tricks.

Gu Jiu knew that when he heard her words at this time, he just smiled and didn't answer.

Seeing that she was silent, Fang Qing had some secret hatred in his heart, this Gu Jiu was pretending to be confused again.

Thinking of this, she smiled again: "Since the old lady ordered it, you will follow me to take care of the kitchen and buy it, okay?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Gu Jiu immediately became a little vigilant, and said with a smile on his face: "Okay." ”

Yesterday, the words of the third lady Wang were still in her ears, although she knew that the other party had the intention of provoking the excitement, but since she dared to say it, there must be something greasy in this account.

But she's not a gun in someone else's hand, so she won't be pointed at where to be beaten.

Therefore, Gu Jiu planned to wait and see what happened.

Fang Qing naturally didn't immediately bring the account book to her, but just threw her some relatively simple booklets for her to check.

Gu Jiu did these things perfunctorily, and seeing that it was almost noon, he said goodbye and left first.

After she left, Fang Qing gave the basic booklet to the maid, took out a brush and polished it in a few places, and immediately ordered: "Let the subordinates buy according to these, remember, tell them that this is what Mrs. Shizi requested." ”

Hearing this, the maid immediately responded. After the winner left, Fang Qing sneered.

Is it really when she is so kind to take Gu Jiu?

If it weren't for profit, she wouldn't have bothered Gu Jiubanfen.

Jiang Zhu watched it from beginning to end, but when she arrived here, she was a little worried, and asked softly, "Master, is this possible?" She is the wife of the prince, what if she is bitten back? ”

When Fang Qing heard this, he sneered and said, "Take a bite back?" Just by her? The strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake, in this Ming Guo Mansion, it is not her turn to cover the sky with one hand! ”

Previously, she deliberately wanted to win over Gu Jiu, not because of anything else, one is that she can be used as a pawn by Qin Zheng's side; Second, the Gu family behind her is an inexhaustible treasury.

But this girl doesn't give herself any face, since she can't use it, then don't blame her for being polite!

Hearing Fang Qing's words, Jiang Zhu also echoed and smiled: "What the master said is that this lady of the prince is too crazy, a merchant girl, she actually wants to suppress you and the young lady, isn't this wishful thinking?" ”

Hearing this, Fang Qing gritted his teeth, and then sneered: "It's okay, I want to see if she can go crazy in the house for a few days." By the way, can the young master come back from the academy? "Xuanshu Literature Network

The young master she said was her own son, the eighth young master Qin Ze.

He is only nine years old this year, but he has been enrolled in the hall for four years, and because he is Qin Zhao's middle-aged son, he has been raised with him since he was a child.

Because of this, the raised ones are a little pampered, and their temperament is a little freewheeling.

Hearing Fang Qing's inquiry, Jiang Zhu thought for a while, and replied after consideration: "The Eighth Young Master came back earlier, and now it should be at the old lady's place, do you want to go over?" ”

If this eighth young master is willing, his mouth will be as sweet as honey, which will make the old lady's heart bloom.

Hearing this, Fang Qing's face instantly had a little more smile on his face, and he said, "He's a sensible person." ”

In the past few days, because of Qin Zhiyao's incident, the old lady has lost her temper, thanks to her son's intelligence, she didn't let the old lady annoy the three of them, mother and son.

Thinking of this, Fang Qing got up again and said, "Let's go, let's go over and see the old lady too." ”

Although Old Madam Qin said that there was no need to go over to say goodbye in ordinary times, Fang Qing was no one else, as a niece and nephew, and a confidant of Old Madam Qin, she sometimes had to go two or three times a day.

After receiving her instructions, Jiangzhu hurriedly stepped forward to serve her to change her clothes, and after packing up, she went to Rongchun Hall.

……

In the next two days, Gu Jiu went to the Siqing Pavilion every day, and Fang Qing only gave her some simple brochures as usual and asked her to check and help.

In addition, he didn't teach her anything else, but it was very much in line with Gu Jiu's mood to deal with errands.

Gu Jiuyuan didn't plan to really get involved in the affairs of the house, if Fang Qing was so honest and didn't cause trouble for herself, she would also be happy to be pure.

In the morning, I went to help deal with some fur, and in the afternoon, Gu Jiu went directly to the shop, and only returned home after dark, but the time was full.

She kept herself busy like this, not entirely because of anything else, but to hide from people.

Hide from Qin Zheng.

The dream of that night made Gu Jiu feel embarrassed and embarrassed at the same time.

In her previous life and present life, it was the first time she had such a dream, and the object of the dream was still Qin Zheng, which made Gu Jiu very shy.

It's good that she can't see him, but if she really does, even if the other party doesn't know, I'm afraid she wants to dig a pit and bury herself.

So let's hide.

At least she's steady!

In the afternoon of this day, Gu Jiu arrived at Jinyuzhai, and saw the shopkeeper greet him and invite him to the account room on the second floor.

"Shaodong, someone has been caught."

Seeing his expression before, Gu Jiu guessed the result, and now he was not surprised to hear him say, he only asked: "Where is the person, I'll go and see." ”

The shopkeeper responded and took her to meet the person who was arrested, and on the way, he replied softly: "It is indeed the old man of our Jinyuzhai, and the master who participated in the production of rouge gouache, named Zhou Zhao." ”

Gu Jiu has been coming to Jinyuzhai for a long time these days, because he wants to develop cosmeceuticals, so he also has an impression of the masters here, and when he heard this name at this time, he was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Are you sure it's him?" ”

Zhou Zhao this person, she has an impression, that person is fifty years old this year, and he has worked in the Gu family for more than 30 years, will he really do anything to betray the Gu family?

Hearing her words, the shopkeeper sighed and said, "He has already confessed, saying that he has a hard time, you will ask him in person later." ”

That Zhou Zhao was indeed an old man, and he also said the reason why he betrayed the Gu family, although he was an outsider who listened to some sympathy, but when he thought of the loss caused to Jin Yuzhai, the shopkeeper felt that the young owner was afraid that it would be difficult to spare the other party.

When Gu Jiu heard this, he knew that there was still an inside story, so he nodded and said, "I know." ”

After getting the door, Gu Jiu thought about it, and didn't let the shopkeeper in, but pushed the door into the room by himself.

There was a middle-aged man sitting in the room, and although it was not so much that it was tied, it also restricted his movements.
