Gu Qingdai is a restless person, and it is really difficult for her to stay in the house and do nothing.
There was nothing wrong with her arm, and the old doctor gave her an excellent medicinal wine for external application. She felt that she dared to fight against the crowd.
It was a coincidence that Xu Qiuxia went out for a visit today and happened to pass by the Lion Wake Teahouse when she came back.
Seeing that the outline of the teahouse's appearance had been completed, she walked in curiously.
After Gu Qingsong inquired clearly, he led the person to Gu Qingdai's room and called Gu Qingdai's name loudly, asking her to come out quickly to greet the guests.
Xu Qiuxia stood in Gu Qingdai's cramped room and stared blankly for a long time, "You are a shopkeeper after all, how can you live in a place like this?"
"It's not windy or rainy, it's very good. Thanks to Mr. Xu, when our teahouse makes a lot of money, I'll move to a big house."
Gu Qingdai also knew that this place was not suitable for entertaining Xu Qiuxia, and she had not been out for a few days, so she made an excuse to buy a batch of new tea sets and wanted Xu Qiuxia to accompany her there to give her advice.
Although Xu Qiuxia is not very familiar with the tea ceremony, she is very familiar with tea sets. Over the years, she has accompanied her father to collect countless rare tea sets.
Gu Qingdai first invited Xu Qiuxia to have a Luancheng-style meal near Liulicheng, and then took her to visit several specialty snacks.
Gu Qingdai discovered that Xu Qiuxia inherited Xu Xuannian's greedy personality, and both father and daughter particularly liked sweets.
Xu Qiuxia had helped her so much before, so she had to express her feelings no matter what.
Xu Qiuxia didn't argue with her too much. She felt very fond of seeing this junior surrounding her enthusiastically.
"Their tea sets have many styles and good quality, but the price is on the high side." Xu Qiuxia, who had eaten and drank enough, began to advise Gu Qingdai.
Gu Qingdai looked left and right, then smiled charmingly at Xu Qiuxia, "Aunt Qiu, let's go shopping further?"
Xu Qiuxia guessed that Gu Qingdai must not have much money, so she put down the tea bowl she was playing with and followed Gu Qingdai to the market.
"Is Qingdai turning 20 this year?"
Gu Qingdai held Xu Qiuxia's arm and said, "Nineteen."
"You're younger than my son. My son knows how to cause trouble all day long. I wish he were half as sensible as you."
Gu Qingdai knew that what Xu Qiuxia said was Qianci, and her son grew up with Xu Xuannian.
Last year, on the recommendation of Lian Beichuan, I went to study at the school where Lian Beichuan studied in the provincial capital.
How far can a child brought up from a scholarly family go?
Gu Qingdai chose what Xu Qiuxia was willing to hear and said a few compliments.
Xu Qiuxia mentioned Lian Beichuan again: "I heard that you are currently working in Lian's Trading Company, working for that kid from Beichuan?"
"No, it's just... I just did two business deals with Mr. Lian before." Gu Qingdai had no choice but to prevaricate.
"That kid from Beichuan is good at everything, but he is too serious and harsh in his work. He is also like that to his own family, and he was often scolded by his grandmother for this. Everyone knows how to protect others, but he is selfless."
Gu Qingdai hummed perfunctorily, why did Xu Qiuxia praise Lian Beichuan in front of her?
"Tell the truth to Aunt Qiu, are you really not working in the Lian family?"
"I really don't."
"Are you short of money now?"
Gu Qingdai blushed at her direct questioning, "Don't worry, Aunt Qiu, I won't treat Mr. Xu badly at any time."
"How can our old man like your little money? He only likes your daughter."
Gu Qingdai's face turned even redder, Xu Qiuxia didn't give her any face.
"I have a job here, do you want to do it?"
It turns out that Xu Qiuxia went out today to the Lu family, one of the four major families.
She and Mrs. Lu were once close friends.
Mrs. Lu has two sons and one daughter, and this little daughter is her favorite.
Mrs. Lu felt that she was not born in a good era, and deeply believed in Western ideas, and insisted on sending her two sons to study abroad.
She originally wanted to send her youngest daughter out, but she was opposed by her eldest son, who had returned from school first, saying that it was too dangerous for a little girl to go outside.
Mrs. Lu refused to give up, but her younger daughter agreed very much with her elder brother's words. In fact, it was her own unwillingness to go abroad.
Mrs. Lu took a different approach and hired many tutors for her little daughter, who also learned piano and foreign languages. She was determined to train her little daughter to become a high-class lady.
But the younger daughter has been pampered since she was a child, and now she is only fifteen or sixteen years old, which is the most rebellious period.
Every day she either loses her temper with everyone in the family or loses face with the tutors.
Mrs. Lu was heartbroken about this and still refused to give up her little daughter's education.
Xu Qiuxia used to listen to Mrs. Lu's nagging, and then comfort her in turn.
"So Mrs. Lu was wondering if she could find someone to study with her little daughter. Maybe if two girls study together, she would be more at ease and obedient."
Xu Qiuxia took a sideways look at Gu Qingdai's dress and appearance.
If she didn't know something about Gu Qingdai, Xu Qiuxia would only think that she was a charming and charming little boss lady.
There is no student spirit in Gu Qingdai, there is just a charm that makes young men restless.
But the only candidate she could think of was Gu Qingdai, and Gu Qingdai was also the one who needed the money the most.
"Can I do it?" Gu Qingdai was not confident.
"We are just a foil, mainly to appease the eldest lady. The rest is not something you can control. She has to learn skills and knowledge by herself."
Gu Qingdai finally understood why Xu Qiuxia thought she was suitable for this job, because she believed that Gu Qingdai could endure the grievance.
Xu Qiuxia had a deep understanding of the matter of sincerely inviting Xu Xuannian to come out.
"Aunt Qiu, I want to ask..."
Xu Qiuxia thought that Gu Qingdai wanted to know how much the remuneration would be, "The remuneration is just a matter of words from me. Mrs. Lu can give you as much as I say."
"Aunt Qiu, you misunderstood. I wanted to say that I can do this job, but I have to take care of the tea house. As long as this can give me some accommodation, I won't have any problem."
"When the time comes, I will give you a copy of that young lady's class schedule. If there is no class, go and do your own work. If there is a class, rush over. You will definitely have to work hard, but making money is not easy."
"Then I'll go there tomorrow?"
Xu Qiuxia smiled and held her hand kindly, "I'm still impatient."
The two of them had already walked out of Liulicheng while they were talking. Gu Qingdai was already familiar with the tea set that she liked, and it would not be too late to buy it when she had more money on hand.
The two of them were waiting for a passing rickshaw on the street when they accidentally noticed two women beating and scolding a little beggar next to them.
"You said they were well-dressed, why did they abuse a child like this?" Xu Qiuxia frowned and sighed.
Gu Qingdai wanted to pretend not to see it, but she couldn't help it.
She rushed forward and pushed away the woman who was beating him, and sneered and taunted: "Boss Zhong is so nimble with his feet. Did he go out to practice his skills?" This chapter has been completed!
