Chapter 39 Haunting Spirits
It's just that although the problem on this side has been solved, the problem on the other end is still lingering in Gu Nanqin's mind - what is the identity of Master Zongzheng in Wanhualou?
It's a pity that when Gu Nanqin wanted to try to get some information from Qingyan, Qingyan just looked puzzled, and his expression was calm and sincere: "Who?" Which Lord Zhang? The adult surnamed Zhang who we took over in Wanhualou is not on the top ten, but also eight or nine, I don't know which one the girl wants to ask? ”
Gu Nanqin sighed softly, and continued to ask with the mentality of trying it out: "Since you don't know, then I didn't ask." However, do you know the flower sorrow? It should also be your Wanhualou talents. ”
Qingyan nodded this time, but she was still half-frowning, as if she had been thinking seriously for a while before saying, "Do you say Yuhua is worried?" That's what I know. However, I don't know her specific identity, so I guess it should be half of the master of Wanhualou...... She rarely shows up and doesn't take customers. Generally, the affairs of our girls are taken care of by Bo's mother. And she only came out once in a while to say a few words, and even I only saw her three or four times in total. ”
Gu Nanqin seemed to have caught something, and her eyes lit up: "You said half a master?" What does that mean? ”
Qingyan scratched his brain: "Hmm...... Actually, that's what I guessed. Two years ago, she was not in Wanhualou, but one day she was born and took over some affairs of Wanhualou from Bo's mother, and then we knew that there was such a person.
But then, she didn't leave, but stayed here and occasionally spoke to us softly. But you say, how can there be a boss out of thin air? But she has a lot of power and a gentle temperament, so, I guess, which concubine should be the boss behind the scenes, right? ……”
The words are not rough. Gu Nanqin's beautiful eyes blinked lightly, her eyes were deep, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
The people talking next door have long since dispersed, and Zhang Zongzheng has long since disappeared, not to mention Yuhuachou.
Gu Nanqin glanced at Qingyan seriously, this time she didn't fool people again, but she just put away the smile on her face quite rarely, and said with a straight face: "If you help me, I will keep it in my heart." Five years is not too long or too short, but it is enough to see through people's hearts.
If you are a good seedling, I will not treat you badly; But if you have bad intentions, I will not treat you with much sincerity.
Whether it is a master or a servant, this principle of getting along with people is applicable everywhere. Do you understand what I said? ”
Although he said it gently, when these words reached his ears, Qingyan shuddered a little. This girl, with a different kind of momentum in her gestures, actually gave birth to the warm sun of this autumn day and was so cold.
Qingyan's heart sank, and he was convinced by Gu Nanqin's words, and he no longer had any doubts, and he saluted respectfully, and his face was full of righteousness: "...... Qingyan was sent by the girl. ”
Gu Nanqin smiled gently, and the two glanced at each other, as if they both saw sincerity in each other's eyes.
But Qingyan suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright red on her sleeve, and broke the peace in the room with a surprised sound: "Huh? Girl, are you hurt? ”
Gu Nanqin hadn't remembered the scar on his arm at all, if it hadn't been for Qingyan's reminder, he was afraid that he would have forgotten about it.
When Gu Nanqin was looking helpless, Qingyan reacted, and quickly took a small jar that seemed to contain medicinal powder from a wooden carved drawer, and while rolling up Gu Nanqin's sleeves, he lightly applied medicine for her.
Her expression was focused, and her movements were extremely gentle, as if she didn't treat Gu Nanqin as an outsider at all.
Gu Nanqin looked at the girl's eyebrows carefully, sincere and gentle, without many complicated thoughts, and realized more and more that she had chosen the right person.
Although this is a simple-minded girl, she is also a kind child. Although he was born in this Qinglou and did something that the world despised, it is rare to still have a kind and gentle heart.
For a moment, the two of them were silent in this room.
After her arm was bandaged again, Gu Nanqin took advantage of the lack of people and said goodbye to Qingyan again, and then gently turned over and walked out of the window.
Qingyan watched her leave with a reluctant face, with envy and joy between her eyebrows.
I envy this girl with an extraordinary bearing, as if she is a personal person; Happily, she, a woman from a poor Qinglou, will also have the opportunity to be taken away from this sea of misery by her.
It's just that if you were born in a green building, can you still be employed normally? Qingyan was young and couldn't figure out the doorway, but Liu Mei clenched his teeth again, looking serious and ready to fight.
Taking advantage of the absence of the sisters, Bo's mother did not come to call her to pick up the guests, Qingyan lightly removed a dressing box that had already fallen with layers of dust from the beam of her own room, and took out a small key from the sachet she carried with her.
And this is nothing else, it is the redemption money that Qingyan has saved little by little since he was sold to Wanhualou at the age of eight.
Originally, this ransom money was far from enough, but the guests who came these days were all generous, which made Qingyan make a small profit. Although most of them were looted by Bo's mother, Qingyan was careful to leave a little private collection.
Qingyan looked at the broken silver and copper coins contained in the small box in front of him, and counted them, but they were just enough to redeem himself.
It's just that it's not enough to support the elderly.
That's it, where should I go for the rest of my life, it seems that I have to tie it all to the girl who just left through the window.
Qingyan sat on the bed in a daze, not knowing for a moment whether her decision was right or wrong.
Gu Nanqin didn't know what this Qingyan was thinking, but when he was busy going back to check Zhang Zongzheng, he was blocked at Zhang Zongzheng's door.
"Girl, should I pay back the money I owe for the meal?" Jiang Li came pacing, walking leisurely, not like he was deliberately blocking Gu Nanqin, just like he was going out for a stroll, just happened to bump into it.
No matter how good Gu Nanqin Rao was, he was caught off guard by this person's sudden attacks again and again.
Seeing that the other party was holding an innocent smile, but he was on the way to Zongzheng Mansion, Gu Nanqin's eyes were full of complexity.
This person, didn't he know that he was going to run to Master Zongzheng, so he came to block it on purpose, right? Gu Nanqin had just come up with this thought, but she was the first to be startled by herself.
If this is the case, then this "ginger" son, if not the master of an uncertain prophet, must be a haunting spirit.
