During this whole process, Guo Wan never said a word.

Seeing that she was far away, Chen Ying looked at Guo Wan, and was about to speak, but Guo Wan laughed first, and said, "Today is that I am too frivolous, and I almost went around you." ”

Chen Ying didn't expect her to say it herself, but she was stunned, shook her head, and said calmly: "I originally attracted the hatred of the county lord, even if you are not there, she and I are still not on the right track." ”

"In the end, it's because of me." Guo Wan said, apologetically.

Chen Yingwei answered, her eyes swept behind her, and asked a question: "Why don't you see your maid?" Why aren't the green ripples and red incense there? ”

The two of them are Guo Wan's most trusted big maids, and they have always been inseparable from Meng and Meng, but Chen Ying found at this time that the two maids standing not far behind Guo Wan were both fresh faces.

"You said they, I gave them a naturalization." Guo Wanxing said as if nothing happened, turned around and pointed at the two maids, and said with a smile: "I bought these two, and the older one was invited by me." ”

She stretched out her arm and pointed farther away.

Chen Ying realized that at the edge of the bamboo forest, there was still a woman with a green handkerchief and a woman's dress, who seemed to be in charge of her mother.

"Just these three people, it took me a total of ......" Guo Wan smiled and stretched out a finger and looked sideways at Chen Ying: "Guess how much?" ”

"One...... One hundred taels? Chen Ying tentatively explored.

Since she is asked to guess, it is definitely not a small amount, and one hundred taels is already a sky-high price.

When Guo Wan heard this, she laughed out loud and covered her lips and said, "This is too little." It's almost the same as a tenfold increase. ”

A thousand taels?!

Rao is Chen Ying has always been calm, and it is inevitable that he will be shocked at this moment.

There are three people in total, and it cost a full thousand taels, what are the origins of these servants?

Guo Wan smiled and beckoned to the two maids, and the two of them immediately stepped forward, looking at their behavior, it really looked like they had some origins.

"These two followed me, this one is called Pearl, and the other is called Onyx." Guo Wan's introduction seems to be authentic.

Chen Ying swept her eyes and saw that the maid named Pearl was just like her name, with a round and jade life, slightly upturned lips, and a natural smile, which was very pleasing; And that agate gave birth to a long face, which is quite beautiful, but it is so beautiful that it is not a little aggressive, but it is easy for people to have a good impression.

When Guo Wan introduced them, every time they mentioned someone, that person would curtsy to Chen Ying, the posture was extremely standard, and at a glance, they knew that they had been strictly trained.

After waving their hands and ordering them to go down, Guo Wan smiled and said: "Luyi and the others have been following me for a long time, but now the road I have to walk is not easy, I can be limited, and I am afraid that I will not be able to protect them in the future, so it is better to throw away my hands and live our own lives." ”

When Chen Ying heard this, her eyes turned to the left and right, and she couldn't help asking, "What about Mingxin?" ”

This ambitious maid left a deep impression on her, and it stands to reason that with her clear ambition, she must rush forward for this kind of entry into Beijing.

Guo Wan smiled indifferently, pulled her skirt and said, "I also let her go and asked her to do something for me outside, but now she is busy, I'm afraid she won't have time." ”

As she spoke, she walked towards the depths of the bamboo forest, and looked back and smiled: "Let's go there and talk, there are many people in this place, don't you let people watch the show?" ”

Although Guo Yuan left, there were still a lot of eyes gathered here, and for Guo Wan, these nobles should still be very curious.

Chen Yingzheng had something to say to Guo Wan, and she immediately followed, but the afterglow at the end of her eyes was a glimpse of the housekeeper mother who had been standing by the bamboo forest, but at this time she quietly followed.

She didn't get very close, she looked like she was ten steps away, and followed behind Chen Ying and Guo Wan.

Speaking of which, when Fang just introduced the cost of the 1,000 taels, Guo Wan only introduced two maids, but did not mention anything about the housekeeper's mother.

Chen Ying subconsciously looked at the housekeeper.

The woman had an ordinary appearance, a blank expression, and a very strong presence.

If it weren't for Chen Ying's perception being more acute than ordinary people, I am afraid that she would not be able to discover the other party.

Looking at the expressionless face of the housekeeper's mother, Chen Ying suddenly felt a little familiar.

That kind of indifference and calmness gradually coincided with the figures of a few people in her mind.

She took two steps forward and asked softly, "This one is from the rivers and lakes?" ”

Guo Wan was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the female butler, looked at Chen Ying again, and said with a smile: "I really can't hide anything from Miss Chen San." ”

Is it really a Jianghu person?

"For her alone, I spent seven hundred taels." Guo Wan whispered, tilting her lips sideways, as if she was saying something interesting.

Chen Ying's face was solemn.

Guo Wan spent a lot of money to invite a woman from the rivers and lakes by her side, why did she come?

"I have to be on guard, I can't just come to the capital naked, can I?" As if sensing Chen Ying's doubts, Guo Wan said, her tone a little careless.

Chen Ying fell silent.

The bamboo wind shakes the blue, the scorching sun is in the sky, the sharp light is like a thin blade splitting down, the bamboo leaves are coated with a thin layer of gold dust, and in the depths of the forest, the moss marks are overlapped and embedded in the stone path.

The two of them didn't speak for a while, and the atmosphere was slightly dull.

After a long time, Guo Wan was the first to laugh and said: "This matter is always boring, let's talk about something else." ”

Chen Ying was silent for a moment and asked softly, "How did you do it?" ”

How did you get the Xingjibo Mansion to comply?

That's what the words mean.

Guo Wan immediately understood, the smile on her face faded, she grabbed a bamboo leaf with her hand, turned it gently in her hand, and her voice was so light that it seemed to have nothing to do: "I made a deal with my grandmother, you and I are willing, and now, the silver and goods are gone." ”

After speaking, he spread his five fingers and threw the bamboo leaves into the wind,

Buying and selling?

Somehow, this word made Chen Ying a little uneasy.

"As you know, Xianci was quite wealthy back then, and his red makeup was not a joke." Guo Wan smiled lightly and flicked her sleeves, as if she was going to wave something: "Money is nothing but external things, since my grandmother has this heart, as a junior, dare to disobey my fate?" ”

She looked at Chen Ying with a smile, and the expression on her face was very calm.

This answer was not as Chen Ying expected.

She knew that Cheng must have gotten enough benefits, otherwise, she would not have recognized Guo Wan so easily.

"You...... Are you okay? Chen Ying asked.

The dowry left behind by the mother after her death belongs to her children, which is the most reasonable in any dynasty and generation.

However, in order to return to Shengjing, Guo Wan gave up the dowry left by her deceased mother.
