Gu Xiyan is just an ordinary white-collar worker in modern times, her 100-meter dash has never exceeded 14 seconds, and she usually encounters a crowded place, never looks at the excitement, always takes a detour, and then asks those who watch the excitement afterwards...... In such a situation, of course, he shrank silently in the corner of the bookshelf and waited for the person to leave!

The sound of the bean-sized rain was mixed with the rustling of the woman's flipping book.

Stealing is stealing, what are you doing flipping books? Gu Xiyan felt that she was about to suffocate, and kept praying in her heart that the woman would leave quickly.

But things are always contrary to people's wishes.

The woman's light footsteps gradually walked towards Gu Xiyan, and the rustling sound of flipping books became clearer and clearer.

Gu Xiyan only felt a burst of heat all over his body, blood rushed to his head, and beads of sweat on his forehead flowed.

If you jump up and shout, I don't know if the woman's sword is fast or your voice is fast?

Thinking of this, Gu Xiyan breathed again.

Even if his voice is fast, what is the use, when the people rush in, maybe they will be stabbed to death by this woman's sword.

In this hesitation, the woman took a few steps closer to Gu Xiyan.

When there is no interruption, there will be chaos.

Gu Xiyan silently read these words in her heart, took a few deep breaths, opened her eyes and was just about to jump up, but a silver light flashed in front of her, and the woman in black not far from her let out a dull "hum" and fell to the ground suddenly. Gu Xiyan hurriedly hugged his knees and shrunk himself into a ball again.

I saw that the woman in black quickly jumped up from the ground, and a milk swallow climbed out of the half-open window, and there was immediately a sound of metal colliding outside that made the roots of the teeth sour.

There are thousands of female employees in a shopping mall, why did Gu Xiyan go to the customer service department?

Because she is strong when she is strong, she is calm enough!

Gu Xiyan picked up the package made with the skirt and rushed out the door.

Duan Niang was still probing her brain by the thick ancient tree, Gu Xiyan pulled her up and ran out: "Hurry up, it seems that someone is coming!" ”

When Duan Niang heard this, she was more anxious than Gu Xiyan, and the two of them ran out of Yuerongzhai quickly.

Gu Xiyan held a book in one hand, wooden shoes in the other hand and Duan Niang ran to the corner gate in embarrassment, and when she saw Mama Zhao's slightly anxious face, Gu Xiyan's heart beat slightly more normally.

"How did you do this?" Mama Zhao asked puzzled.

Gu Xiyan said a few words, said the words "thank you later", and pulled Duanniang back to Beyuan.

personally urged Hengyue to clean up the wooden shoes, clothes and other special items, and washed and combed again, Gu Xiyan breathed a long sigh of relief.

Is the woman looking for something? Surely not stealing money? In addition to books and books, is there any treasure hidden there? So Master Gu sent four boys to guard there?

The more Gu Xiyan thought about it, the more she felt that today's encounter in Yuerongzhai was very mysterious, and the plots of the novels and movies she usually read appeared in her mind one by one, until Hengyue came to urge her to rest, she remembered that she hadn't read these books that she had stolen from Rongyuezhai at the risk of her life!

Early the next morning, Gu Xiyan went to greet Mrs. Gu with two dark circles under her eyes, and Mrs. Gu said jokingly: "Why, I went to be a thief yesterday!" ”

Gu Xiyan was startled, and said honestly: "Daddy said that I would go to Cui everyone's private school today, I, I'm afraid of losing my ugliness, so I kept reading yesterday and saw that it was almost dawn." ”

Mrs. Gu saw Gu Xiyan's expression languishing, like a frosted flower bone, and joked with a smile: "Today I just went to meet and discuss the time to go to school......"

Gu Xiyan perked up when she heard this, and begged Mrs. Gu with a shy face: "Mother help me talk about it, and I will go to class in a few days......" She looked like a little girl's delicate appearance, and Mrs. Gu, who had always had scruples about her, also softened in her heart.

Mrs. Gu's surname is Liu, her name is Caixia, her father Liu Sanduo is a Jiangnan Dajia, and her mother Du Yueshuang is the daughter of the Jiangnan downtrodden clan. The marriage between the Liu and Du families was originally a combination of fame, the Du family wanted the money of the Liu family, and the Liu family wanted the name of the Du family. After Du Yueshuang married into the Liu family, she only gave birth to a son and a daughter, her son is called Liu Mantian, Xizhao 285 years of two list of Jinshi, the girl is Liu Caixia, eleven years younger than Liu Mantian, looks and personality like Liu Sanduo, is Liu Sanduo's heart, Du Yueshuang is the opposite of Liu Sanduo, likes Liu Mantian who looks and has a personality like herself, and has always been cold and indifferent to Liu Caixia. Liu Sanduo is a father after all, and he often goes out to do business, but he didn't talk about his in-laws until Liu Caixia was eighteen years old. Liu Sanduo panicked, and hit the idea on Du Yuelin, one of Du Yueshuang's sisters. This Du Yuelin is Fang Shaoqing and Fang Shaoying's mother, Fang Jixian's wife. Liu Sanduo prepared generous gifts several times and came to the door to ask for help, but each time Du Yuelin refused with a cold attitude. It was Du Yuelin's father-in-law, Fang Houye, who took the yellow and white things of the Liu family and got them soft, and personally came forward to be a matchmaker for Liu Caixia, and promised Gu Baozhang, who had just died in the Hanlin Academy, that is, Gu Xiyan's father.

Gu Baozhang is fifteen years older than Liu Caixia, and two more wives have died, and the eldest daughter is only three years younger than Liu Caixia. But Gu Baozhang is different, he is the descendant of the Gu family, the scholar family with the longest history in the Xia Kingdom, and he is the first champion of the Xia Dynasty. Liu Sanduo has money, and what he worries about is how to squeeze into the circle of nobles, this matter hit it off, he married his daughter with 300,000 taels of silver, which caused a sensation in Xia for a while. But things are always two-sided, although Gu Baozhang married such a wealthy star, it is rumored that the Gu family married this marriage for the money of the Liu family, especially in Shilin, it is generally believed that Gu Baozhang is willing to fall and humiliate the court......

Before Liu Caixia married into the Gu family, she was just an eighteen-year-old girl who was favored at home. It's a bit hard for her to suddenly be a stepmother to two girls. The eldest daughter Gu Chaorong said that although her mother Bai was also from the Shi family, the Bai family had long been down, and sometimes the Gu family had relief or two; The second daughter Gu Xiyan is just the opposite, her mother Lian was born in the most prominent family in the Xia Kingdom, and she was known as the first beauty in Lingnan before marrying Gu Baozhang...... The different backgrounds, coupled with the different personalities and ages of the two sisters, Gu Chaorong and Liu Caixia are all right, but Gu Xiyan is completely different, she is sharp and arrogant, and once asked Liu Caixia in front of her family: "You said that if you didn't have a dowry of 300,000 taels of silver, would my father marry a girl from the Wu family in Huzhou?" Liu Caixia, who had just become Mrs. Gu, was embarrassed, but everyone up and down the family spoiled her, which made Mrs. Gu unable to speak.

Later, somehow, Gu Xiyan was sent back to his hometown in Shuzhou. Mrs. Gu was greatly relieved at that time. But in the past few years, she has not completely forgotten this stepdaughter in her heart, and she thinks that it is best to talk about her family affairs as soon as possible and marry her directly from Shuzhou. But just two months ago, the eldest girl suddenly let people spread the word, saying that she wanted to take the second girl back to the house to raise her for a few years...... She is like a great enemy, but she didn't expect that after Gu Xiyan returned home, she was completely different from when she was a child, Mrs. Gu only liked it in her heart, she was scared by Gu Xiyan before, and now she doesn't have many requirements, she just hopes to be harmonious and beautiful, and live a safe and peaceful life until Gu Xiyan gets married.

Mrs. Gu had dinner with Gu Xiyan and personally took her to Aunt Cui's place to visit Aunt Cui.

Aunt Cui's place of residence is in the east of the garden, which is a corner of the inner house, its south is separated by a forest is Beyuan, and the west is separated by a Yuanxiang Lake that is now Aunt Qin's Liuting, there is a corner door leading to the passage in front of the garden, usually locking the door, and Mrs. Gu can directly open the door and enter directly after taking the key in her hand, but Mrs. Gu in order to show her respect for Aunt Cui, she deliberately took a sedan chair out of the inner courtyard and went around to the east to visit.

The door on the east side was originally an east corner door of Gu's inner house, and later Sister Cui rented this house, and Mrs. Gu made this corner door for Aunt Cui, who repaired it two years ago and made it into a two-door Guangliang door. When Mrs. Gu and Gu Xiyan entered, there was a blue-curtained carriage outside the door that had just set off, with a quaint carriage, majestic and sturdy horses, and a calm and restrained coachman, all of which explained the identity and style of the owner.

Mrs. Gu looked at the carriage several times, "Huh", and said, "Isn't this Shaoying's carriage?" ”

Shaoying? Fang Shaoying?

Gu Xiyan didn't expect to meet Fang Shaoying on the first day of visiting Aunt Cui.

I don't know what happened to Ye Shiso?

Gu Xiyan pondered.

She didn't know the relationship between Mrs. Gu and the Fang family at that time, and when she heard Mrs. Gu say this, her tone was intimate, and she looked very familiar with Fang Shaoying, and couldn't help asking, "Do you often communicate with Fang Shaoying?" ”

Mrs. Gu paused and said vaguely, "We are aunts and cousins!" ”

Gu Xiyan saw that Mrs. Gu's confidence in speaking was not so strong, smiled, and wisely did not ask any further.

Aunt Cui received them in a small and elegantly furnished hall, and Liu Er immediately handed over a few boxes of gifts. Aunt Cui must have known her intentions before, and after a few words of greeting with Mrs. Gu, she began to look at Gu Xiyan.

Gu Xiyan really took this opportunity to look at Aunt Cui.

She looked very old, about twenty-seven or eight years old, with a slender figure, a slender body, fair skin, a goose egg face, a high nose, big eyes, and lips as plump as petals, like a peony in full bloom, graceful and gorgeous, not like a teaching gentleman, but a noble lady of any family.

Gu Xiyan remembered Mama Zhao's evaluation of her, and couldn't help but smile.

It seems that everyone has a lot of faces!

Everyone took a few sips of tea symbolically, and Mrs. Gu went straight to the topic and explained her intentions, and Aunt Cui didn't bother to say much, saying: "I have received a letter from the imperial concubine, and Mr. Gu also visited in person two days ago. When my father was alive, he used to sit in the Songqi Academy, thanks to the care of the old lady Gu, don't mention the matter of apprenticeship, just treat it as a niece, and often come to me to walk around......"

Mrs. Gu obviously didn't know that Gu Chaorong and Gu Baozhang had told Cui Baoyi about it, her surprised eyes flashed, she and Cui Baoyi exchanged a few words, and made an agreement to start classes after the Autumn Festival and come once every three days.

Coming out of Cui Baoyi, Mrs. Gu's spirit was obviously a little trance.

Gu Xiyan was also thinking about her own thoughts. Since Mrs. Gu is related to that Fang Shaoqing, I don't know if I can know a little bit of Ye Zisu's news through her!

Whether it is from a woman's point of view or from the perspective of gossip, she still cares a lot about this woman who has the courage to abandon her husband and daughter and elope with her lover.
