Chapter 14: The Heart Is Insufficient
Gu Xiyan didn't want to stay for long, she got up and walked to the door, and looked back at Liu Junyan: "Whether my sister believes it or not, I never thought of robbing my mother with my sister." ”
She now calls Xiao Gu's mother because Xiao Gu is really kind to her. But she knew that no matter how much Xiao Gu's pity her, when there was a conflict of interest between her and Liu Junyan, Xiao Gu's protection must be Liu Junyan.
"I don't like my sister anyway. Even if my sister gave me all the royal tribute fruits, I didn't like it, and my sister didn't buy me with these small favors. Zijuan, send-off. Liu Junyan never looked at Gu Xiyan.
Qiu Shi silently accompanied Gu Xiyan for a while, "After all these years, isn't the girl sad?" ”
Why bother to stick a hot face to the cold fart of the third girl?
Even Xiao Gu, who adopted the girl, didn't have any sincerity towards the girl.
The girl grew up stumbling in loveless discrimination, even if she was withdrawn by King Qin, and robbed by Liu Chaoyan of this family affair, the people in the Hou Mansion also thought that it was just ordinary.
"The third sister said that she didn't like me, but she was one of the few people in this family who was gentle to me. I used to be too lacking in love. "I will use a little warmth as a life-saving rope.
Gu Xiyan saw that Qiu Shi suddenly wiped her tears, and knew that this girl was feeling sorry for herself.
"It's all over, why are you crying? It makes people think I'm bullying you, girl. Gu Xiyan gently wiped away Qiu Shi's tears.
Qiu Shi hurriedly wiped away her tears, "The slave is just too happy, the girl will get better and better in the future." ”
The girl is such a gentle and tenacious person, but if she lost herself before, she would not find the way, and the girl will not be lost again in the future.
After dinner, the fourth girl, Liu Huiyan, and the fifth girl, Liu Meiyan, came to Xiyuan.
Liu Huiyan is fourteen this year, and she was born by Wan Qinghou's Aunt He, Liu Meiyan is half a year younger than Liu Huiyan, and she is from Wan Qinghou's Aunt Zhao.
They usually disdain to deal with Gu Xiyan, but today when they saw that Gu Xiyan had won the imperial tribute fruit, they couldn't sit still, they just wanted to taste the imperial tribute fruit.
Chunhua and Qiushi couldn't put on a good face when they saw these two girls. Usually they sneered at their own girls, but today they ran over, didn't they just want to taste the delicacy of Gongguo?
Gu Xiyan was generous, she asked Shen's mother to wash some tribute fruits, and Liu Huiyan and Liu Meiyan ate them very unceremoniously.
What made Qiu Shi most angry was that the two didn't even have the word "thanks" after eating, and they planned to leave after eating.
Liu Huiyan is very pampered on weekdays, and after eating the fruit, she said with a smile: "The big sister can't finish it, why don't you let me and the fifth sister help the big sister and bring some tribute fruits back?" ”
Gu Xiyan smiled good-naturedly: "The fourth sister is polite." ”
She turned to Chunhua and said, "It's dark and the road is not easy to walk, you go and send off the two girls." ”
Liu Meiyan saw that Gu Xiyan was not on the road, and said sarcastically: "Big sister, don't know what to do, the fourth sister and I are willing to help the big sister, that is the blessing of the big sister, miss this village and don't have this store!" ”
Qiu Shi's face turned red with anger, how could there be such a shameless person in this world?
Gu Xiyan looked at Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan steadily, the smile on her face was still the same, but her beautiful eyes were as calm as a thousand-year-old pool.
Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan were under Gu Xiyan's gaze, and their arrogance gradually faded, and they didn't dare to look directly at Gu Xiyan.
"I'm willing to give my two sisters a taste of the royal fruit, because I'm in a good mood. If I don't want to try it for my two sisters, will the two sisters go to the palace to sue the emperor? Gu Xiyan put the teacup on the coffee table and made a dull sound.
The whole living room suddenly fell silent, without a single sound.
"Being a man is not only duty, but also contentment, what do the two sisters think?"
The lights flickered faintly, blurring Gu Xiyan's facial features, revealing a little coldness, which made Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan feel cold on their backs.
They didn't dare to say another half a word, you pushed me, I pushed you and left Xiyuan.
As soon as the two left, Qiu Shi was extremely angry and said, "The girl shouldn't feed the dogs and give them food!" ”
I'm so angry with her, I've never seen such a shameless slut.
"Unworthy people and small things are worth your anger?" Gu Xiyan shook his head.
She just wanted to send the two girls quickly, so she took some tribute fruits out to send them away.
Today she only got back the dowry left to her by her mother, she will leave the house tomorrow, and she will have to read the account books tonight, it seems that she is going to stay up late.
That night, Gu Xiyan was busy until the middle of the night and still couldn't finish reading the account books of a few shops, and then even Shen's mother couldn't stand it to persuade her, so she went to bed and slept with her pillow.
Early the next morning, after Gu Xiyan went to Zaohui Hall to say goodbye, he returned to Xiyuan and started to get busy again.
It was almost noon, and Gu Xiyan came out of the Hou Mansion.
The Great Jin Dynasty is open to the people, men and women can sit at the same table, and women are not restricted from going out.
However, Chunhua and Qiushi knew that their girl was born beautiful, and she had no status in the Hou Mansion and no carriage to ride, so they deliberately put a hat on Gu Xiyan and went out.
Gu Xiyan hadn't left the Hou Mansion for a long time, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances at the excitement on the street. Later, I remembered that I had something important today, so I hurried to Jixianglou.
The surname of the person in charge of Jixianglou is Wu, his name is Tong, he received the news early in the morning that Gu Xiyan was coming, and he waited at the door early to greet him.
Gu Xiyan saw that Wu Tong didn't say hello, so he went to the third floor without squinting.
She had confessed to Wu Tong before, Mo Laixu's set, she didn't want outsiders to know that she was the shopkeeper behind Jixianglou, but Wu Tong didn't listen.
When Wu Tong followed up the east wing on the third floor, she repeated it again, Wu Tong should be again and again.
"Later, Second Miss Su will come, bring me this room, you go and do your work." Gu Xiyan ordered.
Wu Tong was secretly surprised, the last time he saw Miss Gu was half a year ago, although the girl was quite business-minded, but the whole person seemed to be unenergetic.
When I saw it today, it was like being reborn, and people looked very gentle, but the momentum was extremely grand, and it was strange.
Two quarters of an hour later, Su Mei came to the third floor and saw Gu Xiyan.
Seeing Wu Tong's respectful and polite appearance to Gu Xiyan, she was secretly surprised: "Could it be that the girl is the shopkeeper behind Jixianglou?" ”
