Before dawn, Qingmei woke up Gu Jiu.
"Girl, it's time to get up."
Gu Jiu rubbed her eyes, as if she hadn't woken up.
I slept too late yesterday, and I am a little sleepy today.
Qingmei hung up the gauze curtain and said: "Miss, hurry up and wash up, you can catch up on sleep in the car later."
Gu Jiu nodded and asked, "Is there any movement over there, Young Master Biao?"
Qingmei lowered her voice and whispered: "Master Biao will leave for the capital today as planned."
Gu Jiu's eyes lit up, and she suddenly regained her energy.
So it's done.
"Then let's hurry up and leave the house early."
If it was later, there might be a big disturbance in the mansion. She had to leave early so as not to implicate herself.
After washing up, Gu Jiu took the maid to the upper room to pay her respects.
On the way, I met Su Zheng who had just come out of the upper room.
The two cousins exchanged a glance with each other.
Gu Jiu said softly, "Cousin, hard work."
"Cousin Xiaojiu is polite, I will leave the house immediately, and I won't wait for Cousin Xiaojiu."
"Bon voyage, cousin."
Su Zheng nodded, took his servant Shunzi, packed his luggage, bid farewell to the Gu family, and headed for the capital.
When Gu Jiu came to the upper room, Mrs. Xie had just woken up for a while and hadn't washed yet.
The servant girl Chunhe reported, "Madam, the second girl is here to say hello, do you want her to come in?"
Xie frowned, "One and two, why are they so early, maybe it's an appointment."
Chunhe reminded in a low voice, "The second girl is going to Tianmen Temple today. To avoid the sun, she needs to go out early. Young Master Su is also leaving for the capital today, and he also needs to go out early. Madam, did you forget?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Xie felt upset when she thought that Gu Jiu was going to worship Su's family at Tianmen Temple, so she said with a straight face, "No see!"
Chunhe took the order, "The servant girl will go back to the second girl."
Gu Jiu expected that Mrs. Xie would not see her.
Xie just woke up at this time, and hadn't had time to dress up yet, so it was absolutely impossible for her to come out with a plain face to meet her.
"Second girl, please go back, my wife is busy, so I can't see you."
"Since my wife is busy, I don't want to disturb you. Please, Sister Chunhe, please greet my wife on my behalf. I will greet my wife when I come back from Tianmen Temple."
"The second girl has a heart."
Gu Jiu smiled softly, "Then I'll go back first."
"Second girl, go slowly."
Gu Jiu left the upper room and went directly to the second door.
The maids had already loaded their luggage onto the ox cart, and his elder brother Gu Ting was waiting.
Seeing Gu Jiu approaching, Gu Ting looked excited, "Sister, you're finally here. Shall we set off right away?"
Gu Jiu nodded and asked, "Did you say goodbye to your father?"
"Don't worry! Before my father went to the Yamen, I said goodbye. My father also told me to be careful on the way and take good care of my sister."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes softened, "Brother must do what he says, take good care of me."
"Don't worry, sister, I won't let you suffer any grievances."
Two bullock carts left the governor's mansion through the side door and headed for Tianmen Temple outside the city.
…
on the room.
Xie frowned, woke up early this morning, his eyelids kept twitching, maybe something happened.
Mrs. Xie asked Chunhe, "Is there something wrong in the mansion?"
Chunhe shook his head slightly, "Nothing happened."
Xie's brows did not relax, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, and his eyelids still kept twitching.
The sun is rising.
The maid Chuncao hurried in from the outside, "Madam, it's not good, something happened to Master Biao."
"What's going on?" Mrs. Xie straightened her back suddenly, did her premonition come true? The eyelids kept twitching, did it really come true
Chuncao panted, and said in a panic, "Master Xie's Biao, he, he..."
"What's wrong with Xie Xian? You can't even speak clearly, so what's the use of you." Mrs. Xie angrily scolded Chuncao.
On the contrary, Chuncao calmed down, "I heard that Young Master Xie didn't go home last night and stayed in a prostitution hall. He didn't have the money to pay the bill, and he was arrested and said he would report to the police. gone."
"what?"
Xie's complexion changed drastically, and his eyes rolled wildly, "Where is Mr. Xie Xian now?"
Chuncao hurriedly said: "This matter has alarmed the master, and the master asked the housekeeper to take someone to bring Master Xie back."
It's over, it's over, how could this matter alarm the master.
"Where's the senior high school student? Why didn't he come to report such a big matter to me." Xie's heart was bubbling with anger.
Chuncao hurriedly said: "The executives are outside to inquire about the situation."
Gritting her teeth, Mrs. Xie scolded Xie Xian, "Trash!"
Even before the marriage was settled, she dared to spend the night in prostitutes in front of her future father-in-law.
Staying overnight is staying overnight. What's too much is that there is no money to pay the bill, and the city is full of storms.
Xie Xian's son has more success than failure.
Mrs. Xie asked, "Where is Second Master Xie now?"
"Together with the master."
When Mrs. Xie heard this, she became anxious, "Why are you with the master?"
"I heard from the senior officials that the master sent someone to invite the second master over."
Mrs. Xie fell headfirst on the chair, the master must have been angry.
"Ma'am, the steward Zhang Gui who is beside the master is here." The maid Dongmei hurried into the room.
Mrs. Xie cheered up, "Quickly invite Guanshi Zhang to come in."
"yes!"
Zhang Gui was invited into the upper room, bowed slightly, and gave Xie Shi luggage.
Mrs. Xie pretended not to know anything, and asked, "Zhang Gui, Master sent you here, but is there something wrong?"
Zhang Gui nodded, "Master invites his wife to go to the flower hall in the outer courtyard."
Mrs. Xie asked nervously, "What are you doing in the flower hall?"
Zhang Gui shook his head, "I don't know. The master ordered, please go there as soon as possible, madam. Hurry up, don't waste the master's time."
Xie Shi said: "I see, I will go there immediately."
"Retire, little one."
Zhang Gui leaves.
Mrs. Xie hurriedly ordered: "Chuncao, go ask Gao Sanfu if Xie Xian was brought back by Gu Quan? Quick!"
"yes!"
Chuncao hurried out to inquire about the news.
Xie was worried, uneasy, and nervous. The master must be angry. What will the master do
Chunhe reminded in a low voice, "Madam, the master is waiting in the flower hall of the outer courtyard, should we go there now?"
"Shut up!"
Xie scolded Chunhe angrily.
Chunhe's face tightened, and he dared not speak any more.
Mrs. Xie walked back and forth in the house, and she had already killed Xie Xian thousands of times in her heart.
She couldn't control her lower body at a young age, and she made troubles to the point that everyone knew about it, causing her to lose face too, and it would be easy for him to die a thousand times.
Chuncao came back after inquiring about the news.
Xie quickly asked, "How is it?"
"Qi Madam, Master Xie has been brought back by Gu Quan, and he will be in the flower hall of the outer courtyard. I heard from the senior officials that the master lost his temper. He also said a lot of serious things to the second master Xie. Madam, go quickly .”
Mrs. Xie took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, "Follow me to the flower hall in the outer courtyard."
"yes!"
…
Flower hall in the outer courtyard.
Xie Xian knelt on the ground, his clothes disheveled and his hair disheveled. The smell of wine is mixed with the smell of fat powder, which is very pungent.
He bowed his head, his cheeks were swollen, and he looked overly sensual.
Master Xie Er sighed repeatedly, glared fiercely at Xie Xian, and looked at Mr. Gu again and again.
Master Gu said with a straight face, "Master Xie has raised a good son, I have lost all face."
"Brother-in-law calm down!"
"Master Xie, be careful. I don't dare to be your brother-in-law."
Master Xie's cheeks twitched, his heart was in a panic, he muttered to himself why his sister Xie hasn't come yet.
"Husband calm down!"
Xie's Shi Shi ran into the flower hall from the outside.
"Sister, you are here!" Master Xie Er stood up excitedly.
It's good that my sister is here.
Master Gu snorted coldly, "Madam came just in time. This is Xie's housework, you can handle it. In short, I don't want to see these two people again in the future."
Xie's face changed slightly, as if he couldn't bear the blow, his body swayed and his face turned pale.
She looked at Mrs. Gu, "Husband, calm down, it's all because of my bad status. I never thought that Xie Xian would be so foolish, lustful and lustful at such a young age..."
Master Gu looked at Mrs. Xie with a half-smile, and interrupted her, "So Madam already knows what happened? It's better if this is the case, please Madam drive these brazen people out of the Governor's Mansion.
Don't mention the matter of getting married again, the official's daughter will never marry such a shameless person. "
After finishing speaking, Mr. Gu shook his sleeves and left.
"Husband!"
In a hurry, Mrs. Xie reached out to grab Master Gu's sleeve, but Master Gu threw it away mercilessly.
Mrs. Xie collapsed on the tea table, Mr. Gu left without even looking at it.
