"Looking for Lao Lu." The woman looked Gu Jiu up and down: "Who are you?" ”

Gu Jiu: ???

"Well, I heard that Mr. Lu Qiuzhi is from the academy, and I want to ask him for help."

"Academy? How can he have that ability, he can't read a single big word! You're looking for the wrong person! As he spoke, the man closed the door, and through the broken door, Gu Jiu could vaguely hear the sound coming from inside.

"I thought I was beaten lightly last time, and the old thing went out to drink flower wine and hook up with the little girl again......"

Out of the alley, looking at the crowded streets, Gu Jiu sat on the side of the road for about a stick of incense and suddenly realized that he might have found the wrong direction—how could ordinary people know the things in the academy so clearly.

She should go to the places where the scholars frequent. After thinking clearly, Gu Jiu stood up and planned to walk around the city to see what was worth paying attention to.

"Xiao Jiu."

A familiar shout suddenly came from behind her, and Gu Jiu turned around to see Gu Cheng waving towards her.

"You...... Coming by yourself? Can the village chief rest assured? Gu Jiu looked behind Gu Cheng who was empty, confused and shocked.

"I can't."

Gu Cheng was a little helpless and turned around and pointed to one of the shops and said, "Dad is buying things inside to take care of his old friend's business, and I came out to take a breath and suddenly saw you." Anyway, how did you end up here? ”

"I'm looking for someone."

"Looking for someone? Who is it? Gu Cheng turned his head with curiosity.

"Lu Qiuzhi."

As soon as the three words came out, Gu Cheng's eyes widened subconsciously: "Is it so coincidental?" We also went to the city this time to find Mr. Lu Qiuzhi. ”

"Do you know where he lives?" Hearing Gu Cheng say this, Gu Jiu's eyes immediately flashed with hope. It's a pity that the reality is often very skinny.

"I don't know." Gu Cheng shook his head, looked at Gu Jiu and continued: "You are looking for Mr. Lu Qiuzhi to come here for Xiao Jing's entry into the academy, right?" ”

Gu Jiu nodded.

"I don't know if that person is good at talking, are there many people looking for it?"

"Many! At least fifteen or sixteen, among the few big families in Cloud City, Mr. Lu Qiuzhi of the Lu family has the least requirements, and the people looking for him must be the most! ”

Gu Jiu nodded to indicate that he knew, suddenly remembered the Wang family, and asked, "Did Gu Zhiqi and my uncle go back when you came?" ”

"Nope." When the words fell, Gu Cheng became serious: "But I need to tell you another thing - your eldest aunt is crazy." ”

Gu Jiu: "...... It's true? ”

Gu Jiu's first reaction was to be suspicious, wouldn't it be pretending again.

"I don't look like it's pretending, that day you just left with your front foot, and your aunt's family came with your back foot, and I don't know what I said, and my mother's family left for a while Your aunt's screams came from the yard almost crazy. My mother said that by the time everyone heard the voice, your aunt had already torn her coat and was still muttering in her mouth. It's like, it's like saying something like 'it's all you, it's clearly you'. ”

"I saw her the next day, and it didn't look like a pretend."

Hearing this, Gu Jiu nodded thoughtfully, looking at this melon sister-in-law is really a ruthless stubble!

After the village chief finished the old thing, he came out with a small bag of sugar and immediately looked around at Gu Cheng's figure.

"Hello village chief."

"Okay, okay, don't you eat sugar? Just bought. The village chief replied while enthusiastically untying the rope on the package for Gu Jiu, and at the same time did not forget to glare at Gu Cheng, as if to say: Didn't I tell you not to run around and wait for me for a while?

"No, I don't eat it! It's true! "I can't do it dry and eat white sugar!

"What are you polite to the village chief?"

"You're welcome, it's really a waste to give it to me!" Gu Jiu stretched out his hand and pressed it on the paper bag, effectively stopping the village chief who tried to break off a piece of her.

"Don't you really want to eat it? Don't all children love sweets? ”

“…… I'm not a big fan of food. ”

"Then when you go back next time, ask your aunt to put more salt for you and make the food fragrant!"

"Okay." Gu Jiu smiled a little overwhelmed, and immediately changed the topic: "Village Chief, have you and Brother Cheng found a place to live?" ”

The village chief seemed to have just reacted: "That's not already, you and Brother Cheng are planning to look for it." Anyway, the inn where your mother and the third live? Brother Cheng and I also went over to take a look, and we were all together to take care of each other. ”

"Okay, I'll take you there."

went back to the inn, booked the room, and saw Gu Jing and Ye Qingyi, and the village chief immediately took out the bag of candy.

"Village chief, let's go out and find Mr. Lu Qiuzhi first."

"I'll go with you." Saying that the village chief put down his things and was about to leave, Gu Cheng hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Dad, it's enough for the two of us. Don't you understand, aren't you tired and panicked running back and forth? ”

"Dad is not tired, if something really happens, it will be troublesome, you don't have ......"

"Daddy! I'm going to have to do something on my own sooner or later! ”

The village chief looked at Gu Cheng with a serious face, and this request that had been made more than a dozen times, the village chief finally nodded.

"Then don't get separated!"

"No, it won't."

When he went out, Gu Cheng seemed to be in a very good mood, and he also instructed Gu Jiu twice not to run around, because he might encounter human traffickers if he ran around.

Gu Jiu: ...... The corners of your mouth are really hard to press.

"Where do you think we're going next? In Cloud City, this is the first time my father has let me go shopping alone! ”

Gu Jiu: ...... So what am I?

"Aren't we looking for Mr. Lu Qiuzhi?"

"Oh yes, yes, I almost forgot! Let's go to the teahouse first to inquire about the news. ”

The two of them came to the teahouse, but they didn't get any useful news, and the people here were obviously more difficult to get useful information than the people Gu Jiu had just asked.

"I don't think they're going to say it at all." Gu Jiu grabbed Gu Cheng, who was just about to continue forward, and said, "The eyes of those people just now were either doubts or vigilance. As you just said, there will be many people looking for Mr. Lu Qiuzhi, so looking at it in this way, it is equivalent to a competitive relationship, and who will tell the key information to the competitors? ”

"What then?" Gu Cheng frowned and asked.

"Let's go back first, and then think of other ways to do it." Gu Jiu proposed.

But it's impossible to go back, Gu Cheng's whole person is in high spirits, and a mediocre stone is rare for him.

"This brush...... You haven't seen it? Gu Jiu looked at Gu Cheng with a look on his face and asked puzzled.

"Yes. But this is different, my father took me to buy it before, and I bought it myself! After saying that, he paid with joy and went to the next one.

Gu Jiu followed behind and sighed, even if he didn't care about him, he spent most of his time in bed recuperating, and now he was suddenly "free", and it was normal to be strange.

In this way, the two walked around for more than thirty minutes, until Gu Cheng was out of breath and couldn't walk, and then stopped and planned to go back.

"Dad, look, I bought it myself!"

As soon as he returned to the inn, Gu Cheng couldn't stop proving himself, after Gu Jiu went back, Ye Qingyi was embroidering, and Gu Jing ran over and hugged her.

"Sister, if I don't get into the academy, I won't go, I can learn very well myself."

Gu Jiu smiled and rubbed Gu Jing's head and said hello.

It's just that this academy is not as simple as teaching knowledge, if Gu Jing wants to go down the road of studying in the future, then it is inevitable to have one when he enters the academy or has a relationship with the gentleman who teaches in the academy.

Gu Zheqi relied on the talent in the town and the bridge that Gu Wensheng gave him to get involved with the academy, and he became a talent smoothly. But the showman in the town ...... If she remembered correctly, that person had a very good relationship with Gu Wensheng, and asking him for help in this situation at the moment was tantamount to asking for her own fun.

Just when Gu Jiu and Gu Cheng couldn't find a turnaround, the Shi family suddenly came up.

"You're the girl of that day?"

Accompanied by Shi Xuyao, he entered the bookstore with a blue shirt, looked left and right and saw that there was only Gu Jiu, and guessed that Gu Jiu was the girl in Shi Xuyao's mouth.

"Miss Ben's fiancé did not hesitate to come to the land of smoke and willows to see you?"

Gu Jiu: ???

"Fiancé? Who is it? Have I seen it? ”

Gu Jiu looked at the woman in front of him in surprise, and then looked at Shi Xuyao who was standing next to her, and the next second his eyes fell on Shi Xuyao, and half a second later, he suddenly remembered where he had seen this person.

"You mean Gu Zhiqi?"

Shi Yuyan frowned, and her tone was slightly reprimanded: "You should be called Childe!" You run a bookstore, why don't you even know this little courtesy? ”

“…… He's my cousin, isn't he? ”

At this time, when it came to it, Yu Yan was stunned: "Ah Qi is your cousin?" ”

"yes, we grew up in the same yard."

Shi Yuyan was silent for two seconds, and continued: "Then you shouldn't hit someone, do you know that Ah Qi was so painful that he didn't fall asleep that night?" If it weren't for Ah Qi who kept saying good things for you and stopped me, I would have come to you the next day. Also, what happened when Ah Qi said that you killed your aunt? ”

Gu Jiu sighed in his heart: I have never been so disgusting in my life, Ah Qi? What is this damned name?

"This young lady, first of all, he came to my shop to instigate it first, and secondly, the whole village knows the cause and effect of my eldest aunt's matter, and the most important thing is that my eldest aunt is still alive now, if you think I'm lying, you can go to Gujia Village and ask!"

“…… Ah Qi said that you bought the village chief. ”

Gu Jiu: ......

"Ah Qi said, Ah Qi said, since you believe it so much, why do you ask me? This young lady, I need to open for dinner, if you don't have anything to do, just let your people stand on the side, and I can't do business at all! ”

Gu Jiu pointed to the dozen or so guards standing in two factions outside.

Shi Yuyan unhappily took out the purse containing silver from her arms and threw it on the counter with a snap.

"Isn't Miss Ben a guest? Since you and Ah Qi grew up in the same yard, how can you check so much? Ah Qi never cared about these things outside of his body! ”

Gu Jiu didn't say a word, he directly opened the purse and poured out all the silver inside, and then threw the purse back.

"There are only seventeen taels of silver in it, which adds up to less than a day's income. Look at the first time Miss comes, give you a discount, round up to count the day. But next time, I won't have this discount. ”

"What do you mean?" Shi Yuyan twisted her eyebrows, and her tone was not good.

"It means that you bought the business hours of the 'Lingyang Bookstore' today, and now you like to stay as long as you want."

Gu Jiu opened the cash box and threw all the silver into it, it was so good, he finished the day's work in ten minutes.

"You, believe it or not, I smashed you here!"
