"Do you know what you are doing? You are cheating. Do you understand?"
As soon as he reached the stairs and was still quite far away from the room, Gu Jiu heard the clear roar of a man.
What followed was a retort mixed with sobs from the girl.
"I do! You don't understand anything. You only have money in your eyes. Isn't Aqi living happily without money?"
At this point, his voice suddenly became a little resentful, with a hint of gritted teeth: "You asked me to marry the Xie family, didn't you just value the benefits provided by the Xie family? But why should I marry a short-lived ghost!"
"It doesn't matter whether you agree or not. I have informed everyone in the name of the Shi family. After today, I will be considered half of the Gu family!"
"Don't even think about it! The only thing Gu Zheqi can offer is the name of the scholar who just passed the exam. Which scholar in our Shi family is not better than him? Why did you choose him? If you really like scholars , that’s fine, pick one from our Shi family!”
"I won't marry anyone other than Ah Qi!"
Card rub——
boom--
I don’t know what was broken and what was broken.
Gu Jiu and the man who led her up looked at each other, not sure whether they should go down immediately.
In line with the principle that doing more is worse than doing less, Gu Jiugang planned to avoid the man and go downstairs. The door suddenly opened and Shi Yuyan ran out crying.
Immediately afterwards, her father also came out.
Seeing the person running toward them quickly, the person who led Gu Jiu up immediately hid aside. It was as if he had done it countless times before. Compared with his luck, Gu Jiu was unlucky.
"Get out of the way, what is it! You can't see anything at all!"
Gu Jiu, who was pushed by Shi Yuyan to block her father, was pushed out sadly. He relied on his body's instinct to stand firm and did not fall.
"Stop her!"
Seeing Mr. Shi standing at the top of the stairs shouting, Gu Jiu wanted to kick him down!
"Master, please calm down. Miss was deceived by that Gu Zheqi." Liu Dong stepped forward and said.
"Humph." Mr. Shi turned around and saw Gu Jiu, pointed and asked, "What is this for?"
"This is what the young lady called. She said she is a relative of Gu Zheqi."
"Relatives?" Mr. Shi snorted coldly and looked at Gu Jiuquan with disgust: "Since they are Gu Zheqi's relatives, what good thing can that kid be? Get them away quickly, it will be bad luck!"
"Yes Yes Yes."
Gu Jiu: Am I something cheap?
"Wait a minute, Master Shi, I have a way to make Miss Shi see Gu Zheqi's true face."
"You?" Mr. Shi raised his hand to stop the servant's movements and looked at Gu Jiu suspiciously.
"That's right." Gu Jiu nodded: "The first step is to persuade Miss Shi to come back first, and the banquet will proceed as normal. After all, Miss Shi invited everyone in the name of the Shi family. It would be a bit awkward if people went all the way. It doesn’t make sense.”
Shi Qiusheng said nothing, looked at Gu Jiu, and motioned for her to continue.
"The second step is to take place at the banquet. Publicly explaining the situation of Miss Shi and Gu Zheqi shows that you are not a person who only values money and power, and you are willing to give them a chance."
"Then what?" Shi Qiusheng looked at Gu Jiu's suddenly stretched out hand and was puzzled for a moment.
Liu Dong: This girl doesn’t look big, but she is very good at picking up money.
"Master, she probably wants reward." Liu Dong stepped forward and said speechlessly.
"remuneration?"
Hearing these two words, Mr. Shi immediately showed a look of contempt and understanding: "You can only ask for money if you can't say more than three sentences. This is not the rule in our city."
"Oh~ That's it~"
As Gu Jiu's words fell, Shi Qiusheng nodded in agreement. Before he could say the words "little boy is teachable", he almost spit out a mouthful of blood in anger.
"Then I won't say anything anymore. What I just said is for free. By the way, my cousin is very smart and has a better way of handling money than I do. Be careful."
"Will you stop and let me go?"
Gu Jiu remained unmoved and walked down the stairs in two seconds and walked out the door.
Because Shi Yuyan expected that Shi Qiusheng would object, she sent everyone away in advance, which was convenient for Gu Jiu now.
"How much money do you want?" Shi Qiusheng asked when Gu Jiu half stepped out of the threshold.
Gu Jiu looked back at him and stretched out a finger.
"One tael of silver? You really dare to ask for it! Forget it, I, Mr. Shi, am not a stingy person. Liu Dong, give her the money. After you take the money, tell me what to do..."
"One hundred taels."
After the words fell, Shi Qiusheng and Liu Dong were stunned at the same time. One couldn't believe that a poor man from the village had to do so much, and the other couldn't believe that money would be so easy to earn one day.
"I think you don't know how much one hundred taels is." Shi Qiusheng snorted coldly, and then stretched out five fingers: "Five taels, not even one cent more."
"goodbye."
Gu Jiu didn't tolerate him at all, so he turned around and left.
Liu Dong: Let's go, let's go, go quickly, I'm really afraid that you will really earn these one hundred taels!
"Master, master! That's a village girl from below. Not to mention that she's literate and her hair isn't even full! I just wanted to deceive you out of money!"
Shi Qiusheng originally planned to chase the person back and threaten to negotiate the price, but after hearing what Liu Dong said, he gave up the idea after thinking about it.
"Then you go find the lady and take her home. You can't show up later if you say anything!"
"Oh yes."
On the other hand, Gu Jiu went out and saw Shi Yuyan sitting in the corner after walking a few steps.
"Miss Shi, your father will send someone to look for you later. You will definitely be discovered sitting here."
Gu Jiu looked at Shi Yuyan with red eyes and reminded him casually.
Hearing the noise, Shi Yuyan raised her head in panic: "Then, what should we do? I have told A Qi to wait for him here. Can you help me send a message to him?" As she said this, Shi Yuyan stood up and held it. Gu Jiu's shoulders.
Hearing this, Gu Jiu sighed inwardly. Although the young lady was a bit domineering at this time, she was really simple and had no bad intentions at all.
"sure."
Gu Jiu nodded and continued: "But I have a better way to make your family accept my cousin."
"any solution?"
"Just wait..."
When Gu Jiuxian came, Yuyan warned her one by one that many methods were essentially the same, and she could move on to the next problem with a little bit of slowness.
The more Shi Yuyan listened, the brighter her eyes became: "That's great! You are worthy of being A Qi's sister, and she is as smart as A Qi! From today on, I will recognize you as my sister, and your book store will be protected by me from now on. Stay!"
After saying that, Yuyan walked out of the corner happily. Seeing the other party's happy look, Gu Jiu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Shi Yuyan, do you know that Gu Zheqi can't do it at all?" How could someone like him sacrifice anything for you!
When Liu Dong came out to look for someone in a hurry, Shi Yuyan happened to come over.
"Miss, you almost scared me to death. It's so dangerous out there. What if something happens if you don't take me alone?"
"Miss, miss! The master said, let me take you back!"
Shi Yuyan glanced at the other party, her eyes flashing with the pride she had expected: "What else can he do besides this? Tell him that I have already arranged for someone to take over!"
After looking at the sky, Gu Jiu thought for a moment that he would be a fool not to watch the drama and returned to the lobby on the first floor. In order to avoid being noticed by others, Deyi found a blind corner where he could not easily be seen.
After a while, people began to come in one after another in the hall, each with gifts in their hands.
"You've been here not long ago, you've never seen a place like this before!"
Hearing this, Gu Jiu looked around. First, he didn't understand how Gu Zheqi found her.
"Gu Jiu, you are going to be finished soon!"
Gu Zheqi suddenly leaned down and said in a low voice but extremely proudly, with a slight tremor in his voice, as if the plan he had prepared for a long time was finally going to succeed.
Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment, then he imitated him and smiled at him: "What a coincidence, you are going to die too!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zheqi's smile immediately disappeared, replaced by a cold expression: "What tricks are you trying to play again?"
"Don't say it so harshly? Gu Zheqi, don't forget that we are relatives. You are not a good person. How can I be a kind person? I just don't know which of us will die first this time. Come to think of it, do you still have some expectations?”
"Neuropathy!"
Gu Zheqi noticed the guests coming this way with his peripheral vision, cursed and got up and walked away.
"Brother Gu, you are really capable! You are engaged to Miss Shi's family on the day of the coming-of-age ceremony. You are quite capable!" The people who came here burst into praise when they saw Gu Zheqi.
Gu Zheqi also liked to listen, waving his hands and looking to say more.
Shi Yuyan appeared and pulled Gu Zheqi to the second floor, presumably to tell him what to say next.
"Yu Yan, did you come up with this idea yourself?" Gu Zheqi suddenly remembered what Gu Jiu said just now and asked worriedly.
Shi Yuyan was startled, then nodded firmly.
"That's fine."
"What are you worried about?" Shi Yuyan asked.
"Nothing." Gu Zheqi waved his hand. Just as he turned around, he turned back and said, "Stay away from that Gu Jiu from now on, she is not a good person!"
Shi Yuyan: "...Okay." But I think she is quite nice, and she understands you very well.
The Shi family is considered everyone in Yuncheng, and the people called in the name of the Shi family, except for Gu Zheqi, are all reputable. Gu Jiu happily looked at this and that, hoping to find new business opportunities.
"Everyone."
As soon as the banquet started, Gu Zheqi walked to the center and signaled everyone to be quiet. Shi Qiusheng, who couldn't find Gu Zheqi after searching for a long time, immediately sent people forward to arrest him, but was stopped by Shi Yuyan.
"What is the occasion today? Don't you know his identity? I'm not dead yet? It's his turn to speak first! Get up quickly!"
"If you speak first, will Aqi still have a chance to speak?" Shi Yuyan stretched out her arms and said nothing to let Shi Qiu Sheng pass.
