Chapter Forty-Seven: A Gesture of Effort

When the ticket was received in the purse, Gu Yunjin put on a hat and walked out of the private room.

There was a faint sound of conversation next door, probably a guest discussing a deal, although the voice was not heavy, but a few words could be heard sporadically.

Gu Yunjin had no intention of listening to others, so he didn't stop and went to the staircase.

A young man walked in front of him, Gu Yunjin was also a guest, bowed his head slightly, and turned sideways to signal the other party to go first.

The man stopped a few steps in front of her, and arched his hand: "Miss Gu, Jinzhi in the next way." ”

As soon as Nian Xia heard this name, he immediately took half a step forward, blocking in front of Gu Yunjin, looking at him defensively, and his movements were so fast that Gu Yunjin didn't stop him even if he wanted to.

Gu Yunjin is not worried about Cheng Jinzhi lifting her hat again, although her understanding of him is only in the three or five things that Jiang Muyuan once said, but with a small peep, Cheng Jinzhi is not such an unrelenting character.

Cheng Jinzhi was open-minded this time, and he was so carefully guarded by Nian Xia, and he felt that what he did before was not authentic.

He made a fist with his hand, coughed lightly, and said abruptly: "I'm here to apologize to the girl, last time the girl didn't care, but I can't be without that incident, it was my abrupt rudeness to make amends to the girl." ”

These words were said with sincerity, and the salute was not ambiguous at all.

Cheng Jinzhi stood behind the window last time, some distance away, Gu Yunjin didn't see his appearance clearly, and when he looked at it carefully, he only felt that his facial features were handsome and his eyes were clear.

Gu Yunjin asked him: "How did Cheng Sangongzi know that I was here, and he came to apologize?" ”

Cheng Jinzhi replied generously: "I was upstairs just now, and I heard the manager say that the girl was coming, so I came downstairs." ”

Gu Yunjin thought for a moment, and said deliberately: "The third prince is polite, you helped me this time, and I want to thank you." ”

"I don't seem to have done the girl any favors." Cheng Jinzhi's eyes were full of doubts.

His expression didn't seem to be fake, Gu Yunjin turned his head to look at Woman Jia again, Woman Jia came out a few steps later than her, and saw that several of them were blocked in the corridor, so she didn't rush forward.

Gu Yunjin looked at her, she looked peaceful, as if she didn't recognize Cheng Jinzhi.

Seeing this, Gu Yunjin said with a smile: "It's not Cheng Sangongzi, it's probably the little grandfather." ”

Woman Jia glanced at Gu Yunjin and lowered her head again, although it was fast, the stunned look in her eyes still caught Gu Yunjin.

It seems that behind Woman Jia is Jiang Muyuan.

Without explaining to Cheng Jinzhi, and the other party didn't ask more, Gu Yunjin gave a salute and went out of the pawnshop with Lady Jia.

No one spoke, and when they reached the fork in the road, Gu Yunjin paused and said in a low voice: "Auntie, it's the little grandfather who asked you to help me, right?" I guessed it myself, it's not a big lady's mouth. ”

Woman Jia couldn't cry or laugh, and felt more and more that Gu Yunjin was interesting, so she didn't nod her head, but she didn't deny it: "It's a good effort." ”

The mystery was revealed, and Gu Yunjin's heart also fell.

Woman Jia said that the other party was just kind and had no bad intentions, and Gu Yunjin also accepted the person's affection, but because of curiosity, she would always guess the identity of that person.

She guessed two days ago that it had something to do with stopping her in the narrow alley, and when she met Cheng Jinzhi today, she simply asked in a clichΓ©, and she was down-to-earth when she figured it out.

Although Gu Yunjin didn't know why Mrs. Jia moved to Beisan Hutong and what she was going to do, since the person behind it was Jiang Muyuan, she didn't need to worry about his "hard work" this time, let alone what calculations were waiting for her in the future.

She not only recognized Jiang Muyuan now, but also met him ten years later, and heard countless things related to him.

Frequent wars in the imperial court, foreign enemies, internal strife, Jiang Muyuan led the army to kill for many years, there are many stories of him among the people, saying that he is loyal and courageous, dedicated to the struggle for this country, after she went to Lingbei, she also saw the victims who fled from the countryside in the nearby Zhuangzi, when they mentioned Jiang Muyuan, their eyes were full of reverence, and some old people said that if Jiang Muyuan did not lead the troops to arrive in time to suppress the rebel army, I am afraid that they will not be able to escape from the whole town.

Gu Yunjin was idle at that time, and Nian Xia asked many stories to tell her.

Nian Xia originally wanted to ask more about the places Gu Yunqi had been to in the war, but how could he know that those outsiders opened their mouths and closed their mouths to talk about Jiang Muyuan first, and in the end, they didn't ask much about Gu Yunqi, and they were all Jiang Muyuan's deeds.

The person who was so diligent and loved by the people during the war would definitely not have had a hard time with her as a girl ten years ago.

Lady Jia said that it was a gesture, and that must be like that.

Gu Yunjin walked while thinking, and when she entered Qingliu Hutong, she quickened her pace, passed through the hanging flower gate, lifted her hat, and revealed an angry face.

In the Qingyu Hall, Yang took a nap on the couch.

Mama Shao walked in quickly and said, "Madam, the cousin girl is back, and she went straight to the Xianhe Hall, looking at the face as if she was holding her belly, the slave and maid met her halfway and talked to her, she didn't even give the slave and maid a look, and I am afraid that there will be trouble in the Xianhe Hall." ”

Yang's eyelids didn't lift, this Qingming, in order to worship Shi's affairs, Mrs. Min picked and chose to toss her, which made her tired and tired.

Gu Yunjin wants to mess with Mrs. Min, she can't watch the play, so she won't be a peacemaker.

Besides, what can a little girl and a cautious vulgar old woman, and a room full of maids and servants become? Is it Gu Yunjin who dares to beat the old lady Min or the old lady who dares to beat Gu Yunjin? Don't dare to do anything, what's there to be nervous about.

Seeing that the Yang family was not concerned at all, Mama Shao said anxiously: "Madam, our second girl is in the Crane Hall now!" ”

Yang sat up and urged Huazhu to comb her hair again, feeling so anxious.

Two days ago, Xu Lingjie spoke carelessly, and Mrs. Min had nowhere to vent her frustration, so she happened to take Xu Lingjie under the knife and punished her for going to the Xianhe Hall to copy books in the afternoon of the past two days.

The Yang family knows Xu Lingjie's temper too well, Gu Yunjin made a fuss, and Xu Lingjie's mouth must be mixed, and it is estimated that he can't say anything to listen to.

The rumors outside have not subsided, and Mrs. Min does not dare to beat Gu Yunjin, but she definitely dares to beat her granddaughter.

The Yang family was in a hurry, so they simply embellished it and rushed to the Immortal Crane Hall.

As soon as the front foot stepped in, the back foot heard the sound of porcelain smashing on the ground from the main room, and the old lady Min was full of anger, "What kind of bastard are you talking about!" ”

Yang couldn't help but tremble, as if the porcelain piece had scratched the instep of her foot, she staggered, but she could stabilize her figure, three steps and two steps across the patio, without waiting for the little maid to pass, she opened the curtain and stepped in.

Before she could see the situation in the house clearly, she heard Gu Yunjin snort in a sarcastic tone.

"I just asked the old lady, the Xu family has been in business for many years, and the second uncle is in charge of the business, so it is said that the Shilang Mansion is not short of money, why did you come here, and you can't make up thirty taels of money, so you have to go to the pawn shop to collect money?"

Yang's head buzzed, Gu Yunjin's every word was mockery, and that disdain went to the sky, but Yang didn't understand what kind of thing he was talking about.

What kind of money, what pawn shop, what kind of money?

"Yun Jin," Yang said subconsciously, "The old lady won't pawn things, after all, ......"

As soon as he opened his mouth, Yang knew that it was bad, and quickly stopped his mouth.

Xu Lingjie on the side was straight-tempered, she didn't hear her mother's words, and then opened her mouth to continue: "After all, my grandmother has no money, and I always ask my mother directly." ”
