Chapter Twenty-Five—The New Man Wins Over the Old Man
"Young lady, you drink tea." Lin Xinxin held the teacup, and Lu Mengqi didn't take it.
"I don't dare drink it."
"Young lady, don't be afraid, I'm not stupid enough to poison the tea, at most I don't agree with you, and I don't want your life." Lin Xinxin smiled after speaking, if you ignore her words, this smile is still perfect.
After listening to this, Lu Mengqi picked up the tea, pretended to take a sip, and made a pretense.
"If you want to talk about means, or your cleverness, just one sentence, I still go out and am still being scolded."
"Just treat others the way they do."
"It's Xin Xin's lack of skill, and he made a fool of himself in front of the young lady, and he will not let you down next time." After Lin Xinxin finished speaking, he turned around and walked out, and he drank the tea and said it, so naturally there was no need to stay here.
As soon as Lin Xinxin left, Lu Mengqi's face couldn't be hung up, she was really angry, and it was not easy to drop things, and the maids saw that she wanted to laugh, so she could only wave her fists and feet in the house.
Just when I was unhappy, there was a knock at the door.
"Enter."
"Kiki, if you're not happy, we can go out and have a round." Gu Ruihan had been standing not far from the door for a long time, and when he saw Lin Xinxin come out with a smile on his face, he knew that Lu Mengqi must be angry.
The two of them arrived at the small courtyard, "There are no eyes in the fists and feet, don't blame me for being unkind!" After Lu Mengqi finished speaking, he slapped Gu Ruihan with one palm. Don't show mercy either. ”
Lu Mengqi naturally knew that when he usually trained with Gu Ruihan, the other party released a lot of water.
After a cup of tea.
"What's the matter with you! If you don't want to release water, you're too serious. Lu Mengqi was beaten and defeated, she was unhappy, but now she is even more unhappy.
"You said... Let me not show mercy to my subordinates..."Gu Ruihan was a little aggrieved, obviously it was requested by the other party, why are you still angry, shouldn't it be very refreshing to do your best to fight?
"Then you can't be so cruel!" Lu Mengqi was extremely unhappy.
Gu Ruihan wanted to step forward to comfort her, but as soon as Gu Ruihan got closer, Lu Mengqi suddenly hit Gu Ruihan in the face with a straight punch, and the latter held her fist and threw Lu Mengqi out directly with force.
As soon as he exerted his strength, Gu Ruihan suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he turned around and wanted to pull Lu Mengqi back, but as soon as he grabbed Lu Mengqi, he was pulled by her anxious little hand.
The two men twisted together and fell to the ground.
"Miss!!" Li Rourou was far away, so he could only run this way in surprise.
"Bang" The two of them twisted and fell to the ground, and Lu Mengqi's nose hit Gu Ruihan's chin directly.
"It hurts, it hurts..." Lu Mengqi touched her nose and got up, and when she came together, she felt a burst of heat rushing out of her nose.
"Miss! You're bleeding! Li Rourou was so frightened that he hurriedly ran over, reached out to lift Lu Mengqi's chin, and pinched the bridge of her nose with the other hand, "Go and call the doctor!" ”
Gu Ruihan was already very flustered when he was hit by Lu Mengqi, and now seeing her nosebleed, people are at a loss and don't know what to do at all, and the whole person looked at Lu Mengqi in a daze, until he was shouted by Li Rourou, and then he remembered to call the doctor.
"What's your name, doctor, this little injury will be healed soon."
"Uncle hasn't come to see you for a few days, isn't this just a chance!"
When the doctor came, he showed Lu Mengqi.
"The young lady is fine, the bridge of her nose is not broken, but the impact of an external force caused bleeding, be careful not to touch it again in the past two days, and you will be cured." After reading it, the doctor helped Lu Mengqi simply apply a little external application to remove the bruises on the bridge of her nose.
"I said I'm fine, I used to get hurt when I climbed trees, so I didn't need to find a doctor, why did everyone still come." As soon as Lu Mengqi was injured, Li Rourou asked Gu Ruihan to call the doctor again, so that the entire Gu Mansion knew that Lu Mengqi was injured.
The ladies and Lin Xinxin all came to visit him, and some were not used to it.
"It's okay, I think Qiqi, you don't want to learn any martial arts, just make money, and when you have money, hire someone to protect you." The second lady looked at Lu Mengqi and then at Gu Ruihan, and was very disgusted with the latter.
"As a guard, you didn't protect the young lady, but let her be injured, how did you do it." The fourth lady looked at Gu Ruihan and was also extremely angry.
"It's my fault that the young lady was injured." Gu Ruihan didn't shirk it, after all, it was indeed because of himself.
"You can't even protect your master, so don't you protect it properly." The more the fourth lady spoke, the more angry she became, and when Lu Mengqi saw this, she quickly interjected.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, it's all accidental, you can't blame him. The doctor said let me have a good rest, and you all go back first. Lu Mengqi yawned after speaking, pretending to be very tired.
"Okay, then let's go back first, Kiki, you have a good rest, don't bump into it again." The second lady took the lead and led everyone back, leaving Lin Xinxin alone and not leaving.
"Young lady, the bitter meat plan will not work." After Lin Xinxin finished speaking, she glanced at Lu Mengqi with contempt and pity. "The old man is the old man."
Lu Mengqi really had a headache, not a headache that Lin Xinxin said, but a headache from being surrounded by a group of people chattering just now, plus a bump again, I really didn't have time to pay attention to Lin Xinxin, "Okay, good, my old man, you can catch Gu Yuanqing tonight, don't let him come to sleep with me." ”
Lin Xinxin glanced at Lu Mengqi, and left without looking back, not forgetting to slam the door hard.
At night, Lu Mengqi thought that she could sleep quietly, but as a result, Gu Yuanqing did not stay in Lin Xinxin's bedroom, but came to his own room, not to say that he was not at ease.
"Yuanqing, I'm fine, don't worry, go and accompany Xinxin." Lu Mengqi didn't smile, and wanted to let Gu Yuanqing leave quickly.
"Kiki, you're hurt, how can I live in someone else's house." Gu Yuanqing took out another ointment and ordered some medicine for Lu Mengqi, "The doctor said that this medicine will be ordered three times a day, and it will be fine in two days." ”
"I know, I know, there's meat, and besides, there's no flesh and there's a mirror." Lu Mengqi hurriedly stopped his hand, hoping that this person would leave quickly, and if he didn't leave, he wouldn't be able to study how to transfer the shop.
"That's... Yuan Qing, I hit my head today, although it is not too serious, but if I want to be cleaner, why don't you go to Xin Xin tonight? ”
"Kiki, are you mad at me? I don't like her, and marrying her is just my father's order, and I can't disobey it. Gu Yuanqing looked at Lu Mengqi with an expression of "I was wrong".
"Alas~ Don't have this expression, then you can sleep here, but I want to rest quietly at night."
"Okay, I won't bother you."
When he woke up on the second day, Gu Yuanqing didn't wait for Lu Mengqi to wake up in his previous position, and Lu Mengqi didn't look for him, he went out with Li Rourou after breakfast, and went to check on various shops as always.
When she returned to Gu's mansion, she planned to enjoy a few days of clean life, since Lin Xinxin had been cheapened, I hope she could be well-behaved.
"Hello young lady, what's the matter, Brother Yuanqing, didn't I accompany you?" Seeing Lu Mengqi coming back, Lin Xinxin immediately ran over and sneered, "Yesterday, Brother Yuanqing was so tired that he slept until noon, why did he get up so early in the young lady's room today." ”
Lu Mengqi has been busy arranging the transfer of people from the shop recently, and she didn't have time to deal with Lin Xinxin at all, so she left without even looking at it.
"Eh~ Young lady, don't go, don't blame me, I'm just worried about the young lady, I heard Brother Yuanqing say, although you sleep together, you haven't... Could it be that the young lady is unwell? Lin Xinxin looked at Lu Mengqi, who was walking forward by herself, and took a quick step to block in front of Lu Mengqi.
"You don't have to worry about whether your health is good or not, as long as you are in good health, it's best to give birth to one as soon as possible." Lu Mengqi is telling the truth, when she gives birth, she will be more liberated, and she will not have time to come to her when the time comes.
"I'm really worried about the young lady, there are people in the Lin family who work as a doctor in the Imperial Doctor's Department, if you need it, you can introduce it to the young lady."
"Then thank you, let's show Gu Yuanqing first, and I'd better show you first." Lu Mengqi turned her head to Lin Xinxin and tilted her head and smirked.
"Me? Why should I watch it? Lin Xinxin immediately raised her tone, "My cough has long been cured." ”
"Let's see if your cough has shifted to your brain. Also see if Gu Yuanqing's redness and swelling have shifted to his eyes. But it's okay not to show him, I'm afraid that if he gets better, he won't look down on you. ”
"You!!" Lin Xinxin's face that was still smiling just now immediately became distorted, but after a moment, he smiled again, "Young lady, don't be jealous, it's not yours, it's not yours after all." ”
"Yes, yes, I'm jealous and I'm sour, you're smart and he has a unique eye, you two are like thieves, can I go?" Lu Mengqi really didn't want to fight with her, so she quickly bypassed Lin Xinxin and walked forward.
Lin Xinxin wanted to chase, but Li Rourou hurriedly stopped her.
Before Lin Xinxin could speak, the maid next to her shouted first, "You are a subordinate, and you dare to stop my young lady!" As he spoke, he was about to kick Li Rourou.
Although Li Rourou is not good at light work, since he was a child, he has followed Lu Mengqi to the house to uncover tiles and climb trees to pick fruits, he is still much more sensitive than ordinary people, he dodged with a move, and stretched out his foot and tripped the maid, seeing that the maid fell and ate, and her jaw was bleeding.
"Ouch!"
"Early Autumn!" Lin Xinxin saw that the maid had fallen, and was a little distressed, so she quickly helped her up, and looked at her broken jaw, and was even more angry. "You! It's too much of a deception! ”
Li Rourou didn't care, and took two quick steps to catch up with his own miss.
Lu Mengqi entered the study, closed the door, and listened carefully to identify that there was really no one nearby. "Meat, quick, at night, you can take all the money in the box, take it back to Lufu, put it in my secret room, and then remember to put away the production methods of those flowers, water, water, fat, lipstick, and so on that I wrote."
"Together tonight? Isn't it a bit much, Miss? I'm alone, I can't take it away. ”
"It's okay, at the back door of the Gu Mansion at night, Xu Jie will pick you up, as long as you don't be seen and move to the back door." After Lu Mengqi finished speaking, he folded up all the production methods written and put them in a grease bag and wrapped them.
He took out the box of silver coins again, and found that it was a bit much, and finally only filled Li Rourou with silver tickets and a part of the silver taels. "That's all for now, don't let anyone find out."
"Kiki, are you there?" In the gap between the two people's conversation, someone suddenly came.
"Who!!" Lu Mengqi was a little nervous, she didn't know who was coming, but she didn't hear it.
