Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 422 Red Pink Like Skeletons

In the blink of an eye, three days passed by.

Gu Xiang has not stepped out of the gate in the past few days, and the wind and rain outside the gate are still raging. Occasionally, he can hear the diners chatting a few words, saying that since the capital robber Ning Yufei was arrested, the Kaifeng Mansion, the Ministry of Justice, and the Dali Temple Waiting for the yamen to work overtime every day, lighting lamps every night, from officials to small officials, they are all so busy that they can't keep their feet on the ground. In addition to working overtime for interrogation, they are dealing with those nobles from the capital who come to inquire about news.

These noble children were all patronized by Ning Yufei at home.

"Catcher Zhang came here yesterday. He wanted to drink some wine, but he just took a sip before being stopped by his subordinates. I think he looks very pitiful. He is so greedy. He is only on business. Those few The little catcher really dare not let him drink."

While chopping firewood, the old dog chatted with Gu Xiang and Qiu Li.

"Yesterday, Detective Zhang seemed to say that several of the gangsters did not have many valuables in the list of lost property they handed in, but they were very concerned about this matter. They came to ask about the progress every day, and tried their best to find out about the big thief. Confessions, the little officials in charge of documents in our yamen couldn't bear it anymore, and they all wanted to ask for leave to hide. For the matter of asking for leave, their faces were so red. Hey, I don't know that these nobles are hiding What, they acted so flustered, wouldn't it make people feel more guilty?"

Even a vulgar person like the old dog can see that there is an undercurrent in the capital, and some aristocratic families hide their filth, which probably caused Ning Yufei to grasp something.

"Those big officials above must not be fools. I can see it, and everyone can see it."

Gu Xiang smiled: "Brother Wang is not a rough person. Your knowledge can surpass more than [-]% of the people in the capital. A few days ago, Brother Wang, you were quite confident, why are you so humble now?"

The old dog's face turned red immediately, and he said with a chuckle: "I'm joking, that's not what everyone does. At that time, I just have to put gold on my face."

The few days before Gu Xiang said, it was the day when a matchmaker came to the door and wanted to marry the old dog.

Now "Gu Ji" has a very good reputation in the capital. The old dog has been in charge of foreign affairs and spying on information. After a while, he expanded his social network to the streets and alleys of the capital.

Although most of the acquaintances are street peddlers, they can be regarded as having a wide network of contacts. A few days ago, I attracted a matchmaker to my door, and I was very active and enthusiastic to propose marriage to him. Ask him what kind of wife he wants.

This makes the old dog beautiful.

The old dog has a beautiful heart, so naturally he talks a lot. Not only did he show off his family property, he has a deposit of more than 400 taels of silver, he has a house in Guzhuang, he has a field, and he works as an errand in "Guji" in the capital. There is also a monthly salary of five taels. On weekdays, I work for a young lady, and the reward is several times that of the monthly salary, and I can also receive a sum of various dividends. Now there are almost 20 taels a month.

Not only did he make a lot of money, but the old dog also showed off his cultural knowledge.He can read, read, and is good at accounting. Not only that, he also said that he can write poems, and immediately recited several poems in front of the matchmaker.

Of course, it may not be so regular, it's a bit like a doggerel, but if you can write a poem, in the eyes of this matchmaker, you can completely boast a word of talent, both civil and military!

Everyone knows that there are many scholars in the capital, even the children of merchants also want to study, but among the real ordinary people, there are very few who can afford to read.

As far as the old dog is concerned, not to mention that the requirements are not high, he doesn't even care if he is a widow, as long as his facial features are good, his age matches him, his personality is straightforward, don't be too coy, and he doesn't care about other wealth and background. He really wants to marry a Xiaojiabiyu , is not a big deal.

Several matchmakers regarded him as a favorite, and the old dog has been beaming with joy in recent days. Maybe this trip to the capital, he can seriously find a wife to take back to the village.

After chatting a few gossips, the old dog piled up the firewood, and then hurriedly took people out to collect ingredients.

Gu Xiang restrained the smile on his face, and sighed in his heart, the old dog knows the truth, most people in the government can understand it, but they can understand it, not necessarily think it clearly, think it clearly, or Be sure to make it clear.

In this world, an official also has those four words in his heart-'rarely confused'!
Gu Xiang is just a chef. She wouldn't care about these things if it were for other things, but she always feels that Ning Yufei knows too much about Xue Shan and the Fan family. The Lord has something to do with it.

"Princess Evergreen?"

After staying in the capital for a long time, even though Gu Xiang didn't seriously inquire about this person, and even deliberately avoided it with some evasive heart, she still unknowingly learned some stories about Princess Changrong.

Her name is Gao Liuhe.When she was born, the Gao family seemed to be a bit defeated, and many of the children in the family were useless. Her father, Gao Xiuze, even passed the Jinshi examination, which at least injected new strength into this dying big family.

When she was young, she had the gift of photographic memory. Although she didn't like to read poetry and books very much, she read a lot of miscellaneous books. The old lady of the Gao family liked her very much. She took her with her to teach for several years, and told others , among all the children of the Gao family, no matter male or female, Liuhe has the highest talent.

Before the age of six, Gao Liuhe didn't like to stay at home, and often went out to play, and he loved to cause trouble when he went out. He once burned the kitchen of Daxiangguo Temple, played chess and made Feng Hanlin of the Imperial Academy cry, scared the princess to cry, and made him cry An aristocratic young man who has lived through most of the capital.

Boys and girls under 15 years old, half of them worship her like a god, and half of them hate her to the bone.

After she was six years old, she finally left the capital with his father who was an official, but her reputation was out of control. In the past few years before returning to Beijing at 15 years old, she had single-handedly grown from a remote small town From the county seat to the prefectural city, let her 'buy' them.

The so-called buying it means that she revitalized the impoverished city by doing business, so that the people in Manchu County and Manfucheng, from the gentry to the poor, can enjoy the dividends she created. She was full of money, and by the way, pushed her father to get promoted all the way.

After a few years, he went from a seventh-rank official to a fourth-rank magistrate.

How many officials will stop at this position for a lifetime.

If her father hadn't died early in an accident, the Gao family would have been able to return to the ranks of the big aristocratic families in the capital since her father's generation.

Since 13 years old straddled the horse and re-entered the capital, for a whole ten years, no other name was heard among the beauties of the capital. With her in Gao Liuhe, all the fans were like skeletons.
