Su Rong thought to herself, if you force her to stay, she won't be upset because she has a good education.
She no longer argued about the matter with the eldest lady, but changed the subject and told about the meeting with Jiang Yunying, specifically talking about Zhou Gu drawing his sword just because of a word.
The eldest lady was shocked when she heard this, "Why are you so unlucky?"
Su Rong: "..."
As expected of a family, she felt very unlucky at the time. On the first day she went out to play with Zhou Gu, she met Jiang Yunying.
Knowing that Su Rong had not suffered a loss, he used Zhou Gu to carry the banner, so Jiang Yunying was so relieved that Jiang Yunying went home scared. Maybe in less than two days, Governor Jiang and his wife would come to the prefect's mansion to apologize to Zhou Gu. She can also take the opportunity to regain her position, and the eldest lady is in a better mood visibly.
Once she was in a good mood, she was no longer angry, and nodded Su Rong's forehead vigorously, "Anyway, I'm telling you, if Zhou Guruo regrets the marriage, there will never be such a good marriage waiting for you in the world. You can do it yourself. !”
Su Rong knew it in her heart. Seeing her calm down, she said with a smile: "Mom, calm down, who are you? Then you can try hard to paddle me. If it doesn't work, we can still point at my eldest brother's Well."
The eldest lady looked at her without words, was too lazy to pay attention to her, rolled her eyes, stood up and left.
Su Rong passed this test and breathed a long sigh of relief. She threw herself on the big bed and lay down, muttering, "As I get older, I tend to have a hot temper. Do I need to treat the doctor's prescription for her last time?" How many more days should I take the medicine to relieve internal heat?"
Yuewan nodded in agreement, "Miss, every time the eldest lady scolds you, I feel it makes sense."
Su Rong glared at her, "Go and look at the account book."
Yue Wan was horrified, "Miss, Young Master Zhou has moved in. Don't we no longer need to learn the accounting books? We only need to play with him every day?"
"That's me, you still have to learn how to keep accounts." Su Rong said ruthlessly, "After all, Zhou Gu is so good, I have to find a way to tie him down. Even if he wants to break off the engagement, I have to struggle."
Yuewan: "..."
"Miss, don't you care about the marriage at the Protector's Palace?"
"That was before." Su Rong rolled her eyes, "Who knew Zhou Gu was so good."
"Then you still fish for him?" Yue Wan was shocked. God knows when she heard the noise and ran out from the cabin, she was stunned when she saw the young lady's operation and Young Master Zhou's shocked expression. I thought the young lady had given up on herself.
"He woke me up and made a request. Can I refuse to agree?" Su Rong waved her hand, "Anyway, go check the account book."
Yuewan was about to cry, "Miss, I am not that material."
Su Rong encouraged her, "Study, nothing is difficult except for those who are willing. Your lady and I are working hard for a better life for both of us in the future. How can you just be a rice bug and not work hard?"
Yue Wan had nothing to say in reply and could only go away wilting.
The eldest lady prepared the guest house for Zhou Gu to stay. In order to make his stay comfortable, she also spent a lot of money. She used the best utensils and furnishings, which were better than those used in Prefect Su's house. good.
As Zhou Gu expected, Su Taishou had already contacted Zhou Xi and vacated the courtyard they rented. Even Zhou Xi and his guards stayed in the Taishou Mansion.
Zhou Xi was already waiting in the guest house. Seeing Zhou Gu come in, he smiled and came forward, "Sir, did you have a good time today?"
Zhou Gu glanced at him and nodded, "Not bad."
Zhou Xi was surprised, seeing that Zhou Gu was not annoyed and even commented that it was okay. This might be okay for others, but for Zhou Gu, this was rare.
Although Zhou Gu didn't fish, he witnessed the whole process. He was too close and felt that his body was smelly of fish. "I want to take a bath."
Zhou Xi responded and immediately gave the order.
Not long after, Zhou Gu finished his bath and sat at the table drinking tea.
Zhou Xi hadn't met Su Rong yet, so he asked tentatively: "Sir, Miss Su Qi, are you not bad?"
Zhou Gu made a move and said, "Yeah, not bad."
Zhou Xi was overjoyed, "Then you don't want to break off the engagement?"
Zhou Gu put down the tea cup and said, "Let's talk about it later."
Zhou Xi thought to himself that it was a good sign that he was no longer so determined to break off the engagement. He would soon send someone to deliver a letter to the old Duke.
Just when he thought of this, Zhou Gu made a serious face and said, "You come out with me, and you will be mine for this period of time. You are not allowed to complain to grandfather. If you are discovered by me, I will throw you into the river to feed the fish."
Zhou Xi: "..."
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be the steward arranged by my grandfather for me after I get married, right? Do you dare not listen to me?" Zhou Gu raised his eyebrows.
Zhou Xi held up his hand and said, "I don't dare. I just have to listen to you, young master."
Anyway, the old man didn't ask for letters to report his progress every day. What the old man wanted was the results.
Zhou Gu was satisfied and asked him, "Do you have any news about the person you asked to find?"
Zhou Xi shook his head, "Not yet. I checked many houses but couldn't find the dagger."
Zhou Gu told him, "Go and find someone to find out. When did the Nanping Marquis' Mansion and the Jiangzhou Governor's Mansion become so close? When did Ningchi come to Jiangzhou?"
Zhou Xi was confused and didn't understand why he suddenly asked about this.
Zhou Gu was too lazy to explain what happened, "Go and ask Ziye."
Zhou Xi responded, pulled Ziye aside, and interrogated the Fourth Young Master and Miss Su Qi about their outing today. After listening, he was also surprised. He didn't expect to meet Prince Nanping Hou. However, he didn't care much about Ning Chi. What he cared about was that Miss Su Qi got along really well with the Fourth Young Master. How difficult this is, only they know. Even though the Fourth Young Master made a fuss with Mr. Xie over stealing a woman, since he was a child, although there are many peach blossoms blooming around him, there is no woman who can chat and play in such harmony with him. , it really has never happened before. He didn't like to play with little girls since he was a child. He either disliked people being squeamish, disliked people being boring, disliked people having too many rules, and disliked people being pestering and annoying him.
He asked in a low voice: "Miss Su Qi fell asleep during the lake tour?"
Midnight nodded.
Zhou Xi was even more surprised, how could her daughter fall asleep facing the Fourth Young Master's face? Only if you don't have any charming thoughts in your heart and have no thoughts about the Fourth Young Master, can you fall asleep, right?
He couldn't help but feel a little worried, and wanted to say, "Miss Su Qi didn't fall in love with the young master, right?" But when the words came to his lips, he thought it was useless to ask this idiot Ziye, so he suppressed his words and followed Zhou Gu's instructions. Went to check the Nanping Hou Mansion and Jiangzhou Governor's Mansion.
