Gu Jiu: "It's precisely because it's you that I need to be extra vigilant."
Shaobaisi: ...very good. You are becoming more and more lazy when talking now.
After going out, Gu Jiuxian went back to the inn and changed into a set of clothes that were very similar in color and style to before.
When I came out again, there was already a fishing line on the horizon.
The two hurriedly and slowly arrived at Shi's house before six o'clock.
"Remember the time, don't wait when it's late."
Gu Jiu: "Yeah."
The Shi family was not short of money, and Shi Yuyan was the child Shi Qiusheng cared about most during his lifetime.
Therefore, the layout of the mourning hall and the mourning shed is very grand, at least in Gu Jiu's eyes.
Different from the white cloth in her impression, every piece of white cloth here has its own details. No matter how long or short it is and where it should be, it cannot be messed up. The white cloth on the servant's body is also straight. Kneeling, lifting and lifting it will not change the white strips. Location. In contrast, the white cloth strip tied between Gu Jiu's arms looked a little messy.
After passing the mourning flags, what comes into view is the white curtain used to cover the door of the mourning hall. If Shi Yuyan is an elder, then this curtain is the filial piety curtain.
A quarter of the entire curtain is black, located at the top, and the rest is white, with some writing embroidered with white thread on it.
Gu Jiu was not from Shi's family, and he was the same generation as Shi Yuyan. He had no reason and should not enter the mourning hall.
Therefore, there is no way of knowing what it looks like inside the mourning hall.
Gu Jiu stopped outside the mourning hall, watching the white mourning flags flying around while thinking about his next words.
The mourning hall would be set up for three days, and even if today was included, it would only last two days. She simply couldn't wait for such a long time.
But if you want to leave, you must first understand why Shi Qiusheng wants to keep him, a person who has nothing to do with the Shi family.
For acting?
"Sister Jiu came so early."
While thinking, a voice came from far and near. Looking sideways, it was the person who called herself Sister Chun yesterday.
"Hello, Sister Chun."
"Why don't you go in? Or are you waiting for someone?"
Gu Jiu nodded: "I'm waiting for Mr. Shi. If I don't stay here with my family, I'm afraid it will spread out and have a bad influence. Secondly, I'm opening a new shop and have a lot of things to do. So I thought about going back first. If you have You need me to come over again.”
Shi Yuechun nodded in agreement, but he couldn't stop guessing in his heart. shop? What kind of shop does Shi Qiu Sheng want to coax him? What kind of hard-to-get trick is this? His cheap dad plays a lot of tricks, is this Gu Jiu also one of his children?
"Sister Chun, does she know what time Master Shi will be coming?"
Gu Jiu didn't know what was going on in Shi Yuechun's heart, so he asked when he saw no one came over at the moment.
"Dad should be having a meal right now. If you're in a hurry, I can take you there."
"No, there's no rush."
Hearing this, Gu Jiu waved his hand: "I think it won't take long, I'll just wait."
"Then I'll go in first."
"Um."
I thought it would take at most twenty minutes, but I didn't expect that it took more than seventy minutes for Shi Qiusheng to come over.
Gu hadn't slept for a long time and the fact that he had just killed a man was a great physical exertion, so his head was now a little hazy. Sitting on the stone steps in the corner, Gu Jiu looked at the sun that had moved a little and sighed again.
It's just a meal, what's the point? She still has to wait to dig out money! As for Bai Si's virtue, if he wasn't there, he would either swallow it all or burn high incense.
ah!
Is that the dark shadow?
yes!
Seeing the person coming, Gu Jiu suddenly became more energetic. As soon as he put his hands on his knees, his legs were ready to run out.
"Master Shi."
Gu Jiu stepped forward and stopped Shi Qiusheng.
"There's nothing I can do to help other than eating for free. I happen to have something to do at home..."
"Little things."
Before Gu Jiu could finish his words, he was interrupted by Shi Qiusheng, who at the same time turned his head slightly to look at the person behind him and ordered: "Xu Yao, you and Gu Jiu go back and see if there is anything you can do to help. And get it done.”
As soon as these words came out, Gu Jiu and Shi Qiusheng, followed by three children, one woman, two men, were all shocked.
It's just that Gu Jiu was thinking about how to get rid of Shi Xuyao's trouble; the others thought that Shi Xuyao, one of Shi Qiusheng's right-hand men, was sent out like this.
"No, that's too much trouble! Besides, it's a family matter. If Brother Shi goes there, it will be more troublesome and it will take longer."
Shi Xuyao's condition looked a little bad, his eyes gave people a hollow feeling, and he felt like he had lost his soul.
Hearing Gu Jiu's words, Shi Qiusheng didn't react much. He nodded, said that he could speak at any time if necessary, and let the servant go.
That feeling... what I just said was meant for those three children.
However, Gu Jiu couldn't care less. After leaving Shi's house, he immediately returned to the bookstore to find Ling Yang.
"Sister, are you here?"
Gu Jiu went to the new shop first. The shop was still being renovated, and the scattered boards looked a bit chaotic.
"Xiaojiu?"
Hearing the noise, Ling Yang walked out of the room.
Gu Jiu stepped forward, took a closer look, and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that the person was indeed fine.
"Something happened?" Ling Yang became nervous after noticing Gu Jiu's nervousness.
Gu Jiu shook his head and thought about what he should tell Ling Yang: "I have been uneasy lately. Please pay more attention to safety and carry a dagger with you."
As he spoke, he took out a dagger of about ten centimeters from his arms.
"Take some, it might be useful."
Ling Yang took the dagger in surprise, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes. This was the first time she had touched such a dagger!
After giving instructions, Gu Jiu returned to Hongxiang Pavilion and prepared to meet Shaobaisi.
It's not that Ye Qingyi and Gu Jing are not worried, but they are now living in the academy, which is the safest place where many children from aristocratic families are involved. Besides, she can't get in now.
"Gu Jiu."
As she was walking, Wang Guan suddenly stopped her. Looking at the person he hadn't seen for a long time and almost forgotten, Gu Jiu couldn't guess why he was looking for him, but he thought it wouldn't be a good thing.
"explain."
"Do you know that the new shop you opened is supposed to belong to the Wang family!" Wang Guan said, with an obvious determination to win in his eyes, and he didn't know what kind of sweet dream he was having.
"have no idea."
"Now that you know it, make room for it!"
Gu Jiu: ...Every day I meet people who are daydreaming.
"If you have nothing to do, get out of here. I'm very busy."
"Are you planning to openly confront the Wang family?" Wang Guan looked at Gu Jiu with a triumphant look.
Hearing this, Gu Jiu paused and said sarcastically.
"I bought that shop with real money! If I really robbed the Wang family by any means, why hasn't anyone come to me yet?"
"Wang Guan, if you want to go out with nothing, please find someone else. I'm not as stupid as you think. Get out of the way!"
"You, what are you talking about! I was sent by the Wang family. If you don't give it to me now, then someone from the Wang family will be replaced and they won't be as easy to talk to as me!"
Hearing this, Gu Jiu clicked his tongue silently.
"Then someone else comes to me!"
With that said, he pushed the royal officer away and continued walking towards Hongxiang Pavilion.
I don’t know why there are so many smart people in this world. The newly opened shop is in a very good location. If Wang Guan succeeds in using the reputation of the Wang family to open the shop, he will be able to come over frequently in the future to "knock and beat" them; and the Wang family is not a stingy family, and Wang Guan has given them such a good gift. The Wang family must give some benefits to the shop in the area.
It can be said that once the implementation is successful, it will be a virtuous circle.
But...he's not the only one with brains.
By the way, why did he come back to find himself instead of Ling Yang? Because Lingyang has a pair of eyes that can see through the world, and she looks stupid?
Gu Jiu was puzzled. When he arrived at Hongxiang Pavilion, Shao Baisi was already waiting here.
"It's rumored that the young master of the Xie family is frail and sick and can't stand the cold. Are you saying that they don't have to worry about dying because you run out every day?"
After arriving, Gu Jiu asked tentatively in a joking tone.
"They feel reassured."
"Why?"
Suddenly he thought of Gu Mozhu who didn't know whether he was sick or not. He made a guess for a while and started to do something in the dark.
So that you can survive at any time.
When Shen Xianyue returned to Shangjing again, Shangjing was "peaceful", and the sounds of buying and selling and shouting came to mind one after another.
At the entrance of the palace, she saw Zhou Tingyue, and they looked at each other. Needless to say, the answer was already in her heart.
In fact, after Zhou Tingyue left, Shen Xianyue still didn't believe that he could be so confused. She studied the token repeatedly and finally found that words had been written on it with a special potion.
"The snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit."
She instantly understood his plan.
On the other side, the "Ghost Three Swordsmen" who were escaping were caught by Shen Zeyu.
"Who are you?"
Looking at the dozens of people in front of him, "Ghost Sandao" asked with some uncertainty.
"People from Guigu."
"That woman is really Chen Xianyue!"
"Ghost Sandao" showed shock in his eyes, and he randomly hit his chest hard: "What a pity! It's just a little bit worse! What a pity, it's really a pity!"
"Otherwise, I will eventually use the imperial troops to break through the Ghost Valley!"
"Ha." Shen Zeyu chuckled: "It's a pity that you don't have this chance. Come on, no one will be left alive."
"yes!"
While suppressing and rectifying the original family and cultivating and promoting a new family, the day for Gu Mozhu to ascend the throne was approaching.
She didn't know if it was because he had been bullied by Zhou Tingyue for too long. During this period, Shen Xianyue didn't see the unspeakable promise of breaking the promise on his face. Instead, there was always a trace of sadness that could not be seen.
"What? Don't you like being an emperor?"
"Not even here." Gu Mozhu shook his head: "It's just that Master is leaving, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do it well."
"It doesn't matter."
"real?"
"That's natural. When the time comes, Guigu's criminal law will be up to you."
Gu Mozhu: ...He knew that the wife and the master were of the same virtue. If the master hadn't said that he couldn't be whipped, he wouldn't be so worried about not being able to do it well...
…
Some people never grow old, while others reach old age in their youth.
