Chapter 31 The City of People

The secret recipe for producing sugar sent by Gu Wan was placed at other times, Mu Yanzhao might not care very much, but at this moment, there was a warm current in his heart - in this world, there are still many good people who know how to repay their kindness!

Back then, he took care of Gu Wan a lot, but he just felt that the girl was special, and he also had the love of giving wine, Mu Yanzhao had always only been gracious and righteous, and did not owe favors, and he just did it easily, and he didn't spend any effort, but in the past three years, I don't know if it was because his subordinates misunderstood him, he often heard the news about her from others, and he only had a little affection, but it became more and more ......

Of course, Mu Yanzhao can't fall in love with a little girl who hasn't grown up, in fact, his heart is 100% full of his great cause at the moment, in terms of children's personal affairs, don't say no, even if there is, he has to suppress it desperately, his feelings for Gu Wan may just be from a friend who can talk to him, and he will only shift from a friend who is willing to take care of the little sister......

But in any case, Gu Wan's goal of building a good relationship with the Mu family had been passively achieved before she knew it.

At the beginning of April, the flowers are in full bloom.

Gu Wan received the silver sent by Sun Darttou, which was two thousand taels, and she did not shirk politely, she accepted it all, and asked people to help carry it into the warehouse, and it took ten points to exchange for one thousand taels to add it, so calculated, after the family's money bought land and real estate, if you are not in a hurry to build a mansion, you can eat and use it for a few years, but you can't study without money, and when the eldest brother enters the Jixian Pavilion to study, the communication will definitely become more and more extensive, so that the location of the silver will gradually increase.

After packing up, Gu Wan said to Gu Anran, called Wang Ce, and drove to Xingyuan's people market to shop, first, he planned to inspect the market to see what kind of shop was suitable, and secondly, he also had the idea of adding a few rooms to his family.

In the Feng Dynasty, human trafficking was legal, but it was necessary to register with the yamen, and the sound of this door was also clear, and the abduction and trafficking of human beings was never allowed.

As a newcomer like the Gu family, naturally there is no face to call people directly to the house to choose, and if you want to add the right people, you still have to work hard and try your luck at the market.

When Gu Anran heard this, he also threw down his books and prepared to go with his sister, he hadn't gone shopping with his sister for several years.

Now that the weather is getting warmer, Gu Anran has also changed his robe, his clothes, hats, shoes and socks are all made by Gu Wanxin, which is different from when he was on the Lang, this time from the materials used to the tailoring, there is no need to care, and the clothes made have no traces of stitches.

Gu Anran was dressed neatly, even if he was not exquisite, he felt that his body, even if he went to the palace night banquet, he couldn't help but say that it was inappropriate!

The carriage and horses of the Gu family, walking on the street, Wang Sun Gongzi couldn't stop bluffing, in the eyes of ordinary people, it was still very brilliant, all the way, no one was looking for trouble, smooth and smooth.

Entering the Xingyuan City Gate, Gu Wan lifted the curtain, looked at the lively street, and was not in a hurry to go, and saw an interesting shop on the side of the road, so she pulled her brother out to take a look, and when she met her heart, she bargained with the shopkeeper who made money and made money, and Gu Anran was only responsible for stuffing the things that her sister bought into the carriage.

After a while, Gu Wan went in and out of several stores, and bought a lot of dry goods, Gu Anran just indulged in the happiness of her sister-in-law, and did not stop her, and felt that her sister-in-law was only full of children's vigor at this time, but she didn't know that Gu Wan entered other people's dry goods stores and dim sum shops, but she was thinking about the idea of 'grabbing' business by looking at the price......

Coming out of a dry goods store, Wang Ce drove the car, opened the car door for the two brothers and sisters of the Gu family, glanced forward, and said: "Da Lang, little lady, there is a human market in front of you......

Gu Wan nodded, simply didn't take the car, followed behind the eldest brother for half a step, walked forward slowly, turned a street, and the environment in front of her suddenly changed - the bluestone road was cut off, the front was dusty, horses, cows and sheep dung were everywhere, and the smell was strange. Under a shed on the left, it was crowded with people, standing, squatting, lying, men, women and children, all of them unclothed, skinny, with dull eyes, and a few children, chasing the passing adults to beg for food......

Gu Anran frowned, Gu Wanzhi didn't say anything, but her eyes dimmed, even in Yazhou, such a situation is inevitable.

Wang Ce sighed: "These are all refugees from other places, those who are strong, young, and beautiful women have their own teeth to take away, and the rest are all old and weak who have no skills, and no one even wants to sell their bodies to buy, fortunately, it is spring now, if it is a cold winter, they will probably not survive." ”

"Why don't they go to Fukudain?" Gu Anran frowned, "Isn't Xingyuan a Futian Courtyard run by the government?" ”

Wang Ce shook his head: "It's been overcrowded for a long time, besides, when you get to that place, you only have a mouthful of gruel to drink, it's better to try your luck, saying that you can't meet a good person, sell yourself, and there is still a way to live." Da Lang, little lady, if you want to add manpower, or listen to me, go further, I have familiar people, buy people who know the roots, and use it at ease. ”

Gu Anran nodded, turned his face away, and no longer looked at the miserable situation of those people, although he was a scholar, he also knew that it was not a joke to bring people to the family, if he was alone, then it would be okay, but now there is a sister here, if it is because of a moment of soft-heartedness, he meets a grace who will take revenge, and he only takes the family wealth and escapes, in case he hurts his sister, he will die and take the blame......

Thinking about it, Gu Anran pulled Gu Wan's hand and wanted to leave, but he didn't expect that he didn't pull it, and when he turned his head, he saw Gu Wan staring ahead in amazement, so he raised his eyes - "Huh? Isn't this Lu Sanniang? How...... Wearing filial piety clothes? ”

It is indeed Lu Sanniang, she is dirty, the clothes on her body, can barely see that it is a filial piety dress, and there is a grass mark on her head, at this time, she is half-kneeling on the ground, carefully feeding an old lady who is leaning against the wall and her face is full of wrinkles, the old lady looks at it from a distance, the corners of her mouth are crooked, Lu Sanniang is careful, and the half bowl of water also has a small half, flowing out of the corner of her mouth.

Gu Wan was surprised - isn't Sanniang enjoying the city on this road?

After her hesitation, Sanniang actually saw her, her eyes lit up, and she rushed over with a rolling belt, crawled on the ground, and hugged Gu Wan's legs: "Little lady, Sanniang knows that you have superb medical skills, and I hope to be merciful and save my mother-in-law...... Sanniang knotted the grass ring, and it will be a good reward ......"
