Views:

It was so sleepy, when Ji Danqing came with Du Qiu, Shu Huan only said sorry and thank you to them, then had no more physical support, went back to the room, collapsed on the bed and fell into a deep sleep .

The biological clock has been developed. Although he was very tired, Shu Huan woke up early the next morning after resting. At the moment when he was half awake and half hazy, he was lying on the bed when he heard deliberately lowered voices in the yard outside. It was Du Qiu and Liang Chen. Although they couldn't hear what they were talking about, the vague and low voice had an inexplicable power, which made people feel extremely calm and at ease. At least the moment she opened her eyes, she forgot about last night I only feel a kind of plain happiness and relax my whole body and mind.

After lying down for a while, the events of last night flooded into her mind again, without fear or uneasiness, and she didn't care what happened to the two thieves now, she just sighed secretly, why did Gu Xiran go away for so many days and hasn't come back yet.

Just sitting up, Mei Mei peeped out and saw it, and said with a smile, "Miss, are you awake?"

Shu Huan asked her while putting on the coat, "Doctor Ji is gone? What is Master Du doing outside?"

In fact, there is no need for a beautiful view. When she went outside, she saw Ji Danqing sitting in the courtyard drinking tea, watching Liang Chen and Xin Xin cleaning the greasy ground, while Du Qiu was squatting by the door, cleaning the embroidery in the mud. Needle.

"I'm sorry." Shu Huan felt very guilty: "I made trouble for you in the middle of the night, so you didn't get a good rest."

Hearing this, Ji Danqing looked back at her, nodded and smiled and said, "It's fine that nothing happened."

No one mentioned the two thieves. The important thing was that they brought a sense of crisis, not themselves.

Du Qiu stood up from the ground holding an embroidery needle, rubbing the tip of the needle with his fingers and said: "This needle is too thin, most of it was stepped into the mud, and many of them were bent and broken. Prepare boiling oil and boiling water, otherwise it may be more or less auspicious."

The two thieves were wearing night clothes, covered their faces, and carried daggers on their bodies. They were no longer ordinary thefts, with the nature of robbery.

Meijing brought a bowl of egg custard at this time, and when she heard this, she curled her lips and said, "I don't know where I got the bad luck, but we were the ones who were targeted by thieves, wasting a lot of oil and firewood, and these needles are all worthless." Pity."

"It's nothing wrong." Ji Danqing smiled: "When I applied the medicine for those two thieves last night, I heard your neighbors whispering, saying that you are not easy to bully. Even thieves and thieves dare not come to you.”

Shu Huan couldn't help but burst out laughing: "It's a shameful name."

"We still have to be cautious." Du Qiu gathered all the embroidery needles he had picked up together: "I'm afraid you bought a lot of things yesterday, and it's eye-catching. There is no man in this family, so it's the best one to attack."

Shu Huan took advantage of the situation and said, "Master Du, find a way to help us get a housekeeper dog."

"Dogs need to be raised." Du Qiu nodded and said, "I'll try to find some self-defense weapons for you. There should also be some traps in this yard. Also, when it gets dark, you'd better not go out."

"Well." Ji Danqing pondered: "I can make some guns for you, keep it for self-defense."

The traps and the legendary secrets sounded very mysterious. Since they were enthusiastic, Shu Huan naturally couldn't ask for it. After thanking them, she left the matter to them, and she herself took the beautiful scenery out of the door , went to the pastry shop to buy all kinds of pastries, and came back to visit those neighbors one by one, so that if something happened, I could ask others to take care of it.

Living at home, I have to worry about everything by myself, and the time is rushing under the busyness, and a few days have passed in a blink of an eye.

During the period, Shu Huan had asked Ji Danqing to tell Gu Xihe where she was at when he went to Gu's house to see a doctor for the old lady, and then inquired about when Gu Xiran would come back.

Ji Danqing quickly sent her a reply, saying that the Gu family had internal and external troubles at the moment, needless to mention the internal troubles, Shu Huan knew that, as for the foreign troubles, it was a matter of the business field, as if several business rivals had learned that the Gu family was now Those who didn't have a boss joined hands to deal with them, which made the Gu family unable to make ends meet at this time, and the business of the shops in various places went down again, and the building seemed to be on the verge of collapse.

Of course, whether the Gu family is good or not has nothing to do with Shu Huan at the moment, but in this case, the old matriarch is waiting for relatives to help, but Fang's family was offended, so it is not very reliable, the old matriarch He became more and more anxious to marry Zhang's family, to have a closer relationship, to put it bluntly, to make the relationship between the two parties better and more stable, so that the Zhang family would be willing to do more in this matter.

Under the persecution of various situations, the old lady couldn't care less about Gu Xiran who was still in the filial period and couldn't get married. Shu Huan was dismissed from the house, and she started to take care of what she had decided. It can only be done after the due date, but the old customs, as long as the marriage is certain, regardless of whether they are married or not, the two families of the man and woman are almost considered in-laws. If there is no serious reason, the marriage cannot be easily ruined. become enemies.

All of the above are the reasons why Gu Xiran has not come back yet.

Since this marriage is so important, the old matriarch naturally does not allow any mistakes in it. According to Gu Xihe, the old matriarch sent someone to send a letter two days ago to send Gu Xiran to another place to take care of the matter. I estimated that I would not be able to come back within ten days and half a month, so I came back. At that time, the uncooked rice was also half-cooked, and I regretted it.

Gu Xi and Yuan also paid attention, and wanted to teach the messenger to send a message to inform him of Shu Huan's dismissal, but the old matriarch seemed to be preventing him from leaking the secret, and did not let him at all before the messenger left. He was half a step away from his side, and he couldn't find out where Gu Xiran was now from other people's mouths.

Ji Danqing said: "Fourth Master is deeply sorry for this, and I will teach him to apologize on behalf of him, saying that he will pay attention to it and send a letter to Second Master if he has the opportunity."

After hearing these words, Shu Huan was naturally sad, and her wish to see Gu Xiran again as soon as possible was in vain, but she didn't show her face, she just shook her head: "It's not his fault, why is he apologizing, turn around and replace me Thank him."

Ji Danqing nodded silently, looked at her, and sighed in her heart.

If the old matriarch insists on breaking them up, what if Gu Xiran comes back? The recruiter is a wife and the concubine is a concubine, unless she goes away with Gu Xiran regardless of her status or is accepted into the Gu family as a concubine, otherwise it will be difficult to have a reunion.

Naturally, Shu Huan didn't know what was going on in Ji Danqing's mind, she just thought, ten days and half a month, not too long, she couldn't wait. I hid the two silver bills and the deed of the house in it, and took it with me, and paid for the clothes, and counted the scattered silver taels left on hand.

It's not going to work like this

Fortunately, when she went to pick up the clothes, the shopkeeper in the tailor's shop also called her back. The guy hadn't found a job yet, and he was waiting for her in the shop. Seeing his honest appearance, she asked a few more words, thinking it was a sincere He was hired with a salary of one hang per month, and he was going to set up the small shop first, sell some things to support the family, and wait for Gu Xiran to come back with peace of mind.
