Gu Lian'er still didn't care and said: "As long as there are old customers coming, you won't have to worry about eating and drinking!"
She still didn't want to leave, and mainly she didn't want to start from scratch.
She lived a good life in Qingping Town, eating and drinking well, and her old sweethearts knew how to please people. Many of the jewelry she wore were gifts from her old sweethearts.
Mrs. Cui was very anxious: "What if that person comes again?"
Gu Lian'er said nonchalantly: "Just give him the money. We don't say how much we earned. How can he know? Mother, do you still want to live in exile and start over?"
People!
Once you get used to living a stable life, you don't want to run around anymore.
Gu Lian'er's life has been smooth, so she doesn't want to worry about it anymore.
Mrs. Cui snorted coldly and said: "You are willing but I am not willing! Is it easy for us to earn every penny? If we don't save more money while we still have some beauty, what will we eat and drink when we are old?"
Also, have you forgotten what we said before? We are only living in Qingping Town for a short period of time, and you have to marry into a rich family before you can finally belong."
These words moved Gu Lian'er's heart.
Compared with the current life, the rich clothes and food of a wealthy family are better than those of a wealthy family.
However, she was still reluctant to leave and said: "If that person comes again next time, we will leave. Recently, we have put away all the valuable things and hid them. I still don't believe that that person can keep staring at us."
However, only three days passed before the drunk man came again.
Ms. Cui was smart this time and led the drunken man directly into the house and said, "Just wait, I'll give you the money I earned in the past two days."
Although the drunk man was surprised, he still smiled and said: "Those who know the current affairs are heroes. You mother and daughter are smart. I won't embarrass you. From now on, as long as you give me money, I will not reveal your secrets and we will live in peace."
These words made Mrs. Cui's heart itch with hatred. Even though she was hating in her heart, Mrs. Cui still had to smile.
no way.
These days, Ms. Cui no longer has the fierceness of the past, but only has a smoothness that has been smoothed by life.
Ms. Cui sent the drunk man away and sat in the outer room to wait. Soon Gu Lian'er in the back room finished her work. The client put on her clothes with satisfaction and came out. Ms. Cui smiled and sent away the client and quickly closed the door and said: "Let's go, we must
Let's go now. You pack up and we leave through the back door. We don't need anything else here."
Gu Lian'er yawned, glanced at Cui dissatisfied and said, "Did that person come again?"
Ms. Cui said with a dark face: "Listen to what that person said, our mother and daughter are destined to be in the future. We must leave immediately. You go and pack up the gold and silver, pick up the valuable things and take them away. This time we are far away."
At one point, I still don’t believe he can still find us.”
Darkly.
The drunk man did not go too far, but entered the guard's yard.
The two guards were still watching Cui and Gu Lian'er in the town.
As soon as the drunk man entered the yard, he said: "You guys pack up, I'm thinking that Ms. Cui and Gu Lian'er are going to run away soon, so don't lose them."
The appearance of the two guards was very different from before. Both of them deliberately grew their beards. They had eaten and drank well in the past year. Both of them had gained a lot of weight. If they were not very familiar with them, they would definitely recognize them.
Not coming out.
The guard took the money from the drunken man and said: "The Shen family is open to business. Don't worry. Even if you don't remind us, we won't lose you. This is what the eldest lady ordered. We can definitely handle it well. It's just a matter of care."
How should we treat Lian'er and Cui?"
The drunk man said coldly: "They want to change a place and start over, but we don't want it. They did such vicious things to the eldest lady, and we can't tolerate them. Don't they want to change a place and start over? Let's let them
That’s all if we can’t do business.”
Little did Cui and Gu Lian'er know that Gu Qingying had already laid a dragnet for them.
Imperial City.
Zhizhi was chirping tirelessly on the treetops, Li Jingyi was lying in the pavilion, and the maid kept fanning beside her. A gust of wind blew, which did not reduce the scorching heat in summer, but made Li Jingyi even more upset.
chaos.
Li Cangjue won several battles at the border, and the Western Region was not as arrogant as before and had calmed down a lot.
"When will the emperor come back?" Li Jingyi frowned, she missed Gu Qingying.
Without Gu Qingying, life in the imperial city would be boring.
Qiaoer brought a plate of iced grapes and said, "If the princess really misses Miss Gu, she can go to Lizhou City to look for her!"
Li Jingyi looked helpless, lying on the stone table and fingering the grapes on the plate with her fingers. The cold grapes chilled her fingertips and took away a bit of the summer heat.
He sighed and said: "It would be great if I could go to Lizhou City. My father has not allowed me to leave the imperial city recently, saying that I have important arrangements."
I had wanted to go to Lizhou City to find Gu Qingying before, but in the end I held back.
She is the ninth princess. Although she is favored, she cannot do whatever she wants.
You should think more about the consequences before doing something.
Since Gu Qingying left, she has written many letters to Gu Qingying intermittently, and the two of them have never stopped communicating.
But communication could not alleviate her longing for Gu Qingying.
Qiaoer was a little worried about Li Jingyi: "What is the princess going to do?"
Li Jingyi curled her lips and said helplessly: "What can I do? I can only hope that she will come back soon. I think she should be back soon. After all, the emperor is coming back soon."
Thinking of his royal brother's feelings for Gu Qingying, he would never let Gu Qingying stay in Lizhou City.
North.
General Gu and Gu Xiao took off their heavy and stuffy armor, and the two of them discussed the next battle in the tent.
Gu Xiao pointed to a spot on the map and said: "This location is the most suitable for an ambush. I just need to occupy the most advantageous position early and smash rocks from top to bottom. Then you can lead people to attack from the front and back to block the intersection on both sides. Their team
The men and horses will never escape."
The weather is so muggy that even if you take off your armor, it's still very hot.
General Gu frowned and said: "You have a good idea, but you are afraid that they will discover our ambush in advance. What should we do then?"
He knew that Gu Xiao's suggestion was very good, but the battle plan had to be prepared for the future.
Gu Xiao thought deeply and said: "Disguise, if we wear too eye-catching clothes, it will definitely not work, but if we can hide it without being discovered by them, the plan may work."
In the tent, the father and son were discussing passionately.
At this time, two officers and soldiers carrying wooden boxes entered the tent.
One of them said: "Report to the general, at this time a businessman named Shen sent the medicinal wine, saying that it was for you, general."
After the two put down the wooden box, one of them handed over a letter.
General Gu took the letter, glanced at the handwriting on the envelope, and nodded lightly for the two of them to exit.
