After summer, the weather gets hotter day by day.

Sleepy in spring, tired in autumn and dozing off in summer, Gu Qing lay lazily on the bed, unwilling to get up.

However, Zhu Han has already gone out to the restaurant. The business of the restaurant is very good. In addition to focusing on cultivating a few big shopkeepers, he is also looking for shops to open two more branches.

Gu Qing lay on the bed for a while, but finally got up.

After all, Nanny Li is about to bring her servants over to help her wash up, and if she sees that she hasn't gotten up, she will definitely look at her with the expression of 'are you a pig' again.

As soon as Gu Qing's feet landed, Nanny Li stepped into the door with the little girl and waited for her to wash.

When Gu Qing was eating breakfast, Nanny Rong suddenly came over with a frown.

"Bai Jin didn't come today."

"not coming?"

Nanny Rong nodded, "She is the first one to come on weekdays, but today she has been late. I don't know if something happened."

Gu Qing put down the chopsticks in her hand and put them aside, "I'll let someone take a look."

"Ah."

Gu Qing's name is Xia Zhu, and Xia Zhu seems to have become lazy in the past two days after returning from the palace, staying in the mansion every day just happened to leave this matter to her.

Xia Zhu took the order and turned around to leave.

However, before she could go out, there was a soft knock on the door.

The concierge opened the door, and saw a boy who was cautiously poking his head raised his hand. When he saw the concierge, he immediately put his hand back.

Then he asked with some hesitation, "Here, is this the Princess Rongchang's Mansion?"

"Yes, who are you looking for?"

"I, I, I'm looking for Princess Rongchang." The boy took a small step back a little uneasy.

Xia Zhu who was walking to the door happened to hear this, and immediately asked, "Who are you? What do you want from our princess?"

"I'm Bai Jin's younger brother Bai En."

Bai Jin's younger brother?
Xia Zhu thought that Bai Jin didn't come today, so he hurriedly let this kid go first.

Bai En swallowed, and walked into the door hesitantly, looking extremely nervous.

On a hot day, he wore a pair of spring trousers. The clothes didn't seem to fit very well, and they looked a little short.

Bai En is very thin, his face is flushed by the sun, and his lips are a little pale.

When Gu Qing came out, she saw such a boy standing in the courtyard with his neck stretched out.

When he saw her, Bai En's eyes lit up slightly, he took a step forward and stopped quickly.

"Are you Bai Jin's younger brother? She didn't come today, what happened?" Gu Qing asked.

Bai En nodded again and again, "Something happened to my elder sister, and she couldn't come to work for these two days, so let me come and ask the princess for leave. The elder sister said that the princess will deduct the wages for the two days of leave, and she will Will work harder."

Saying that, Bai En took another careful look at Gu Qing, and added, "Jun, princess, can you not fire my eldest sister? She didn't stop working on purpose, something really happened. Otherwise, The princess looks at me, I can help the princess with work during the two days when my eldest sister is away."

He patted his chest and straightened his back slightly.

Gu Qing frowned, but didn't respond, she just asked, "What happened to Bai Jin?"

"No, it's nothing, it will be fine in two days."

"If you don't tell the truth, then I will fire her." After getting along for this period of time, Gu Qing understood Bai Jin's personality somewhat, and knew that she would not ask for leave unless it was absolutely necessary.

This time not only asked for leave, but also couldn't come by himself, which seemed a little serious.

When Bai En was told by Gu Qing, he immediately became nervous, "No, I'm telling the truth. My eldest sister, she was injured by the beam."

"The beam??"

"Well." Bai En said with soreness in his heart, and slowly choked up with grief, "Our house has a crack in it, and it was always raining a few days ago, but when it clears up these days, the crack is even bigger. The son suddenly collapsed and injured the elder sister."

"Isn't that serious? Just like this, she still wants to rest for two days and come here?" Gu Qing couldn't help raising her voice slightly.

Nanny Rong, Nanny Li and several girls in the room also heard the movement, and they all came out at this moment, just in time to hear the conversation.

When Bai En listened, he was immediately annoyed. He shouldn't have said so much.Before leaving, the eldest sister told him not to say too much, why didn't he remember?

Seeing more and more people in the courtyard, Gu Qing frowned more and more.Bai En panicked all of a sudden, he felt that he had messed up the matter.

He is sorry for the eldest sister.

In order to avoid making too many mistakes, Bai En immediately bowed to Gu Qing, and said nervously, "It will be better in two days, really it will be better in two days, it's not serious, my eldest sister will definitely come over in two days, I, I I'm leaving."

After speaking, Bai En turned around and ran away.

No one in the courtyard expected him to make this move, the gate was still open, and Bai En rushed out of the courtyard with a few strides.

After a while, the person disappeared in the alley.

"Hey." Gu Qing wanted to call out, but she didn't have time.

She couldn't help stroking her forehead, and Nanny Rong said worriedly, "From what he said, I'm afraid Bai Jin was seriously injured. Princess, let me go over and see if there is anything I need to help. "

Gu Qing shook her head, "Don't go, the store is already busy, and Bai Jin was hit by a beam again, you have to work harder these few days."

"Well, mother, you go back to the store first, I happen to be fine, go out and do some activities."

By the way, let's go to see Bai Jin's situation again.

After Gu Qing finished speaking, she asked Xia Zhu to prepare the carriage first, then went into the house and changed into thin clothes before going out.

The streets in the capital are different, no matter what time of day they are bustling, the roads are always clean and tidy.

Gu Qing held the address of Bai Jin's home in his hand, and lifted the curtain of the car to look outside.

"Princess, hurry up and go in, it's drying outside, don't suffer from heat stroke."

Gu Qing didn't take it seriously, "It's okay."

Xia Zhu sighed: "Princess, we have been too unlucky recently. Murong Xue's mother's illness has just recovered, and Bai Jin has collapsed again, and the two most needed people are not here, what should we do? "

Gu Qing leaned against the car door, thinking about this question too.

The shop was already very busy, not to mention that Murong Xue and Bai Jin seemed to have a small number of people, and now there are even fewer.

But natural disasters and man-made disasters, the world is unpredictable, this is also something that can't be helped.

"The most important thing now is to see how Bai Jin's situation is. As for the other things, we have to figure out a way."

If it didn't work, she let the servant girl in the mansion do it.

There is nothing wrong with these maids just serving tea and water.

What's more, now that the source of customers has gradually stabilized, there will be no rush.

It should be fine for a while.

While thinking about it, Gu Qing unconsciously looked at the road ahead.

Suddenly, she paused, and suddenly said to Xia Zhu, "Stop."

"Hoo." Xia Zhu pulled the rein and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Princess?"

Gu Qing looked behind the carriage, and sure enough, she saw the crooked figure wiping away tears.

Xia Zhu also saw it, "Isn't that Bai En?"

Although he left first, Bai En walked slowly, and now he was overtaken by their carriage.

Bai En didn't notice them yet, but when he saw a carriage parked in front of him, he automatically moved to the side and continued walking.

But just after taking two steps, a person suddenly blocked in front of him.

Bai En was stunned for a moment, then raised his head to look at Xia Zhu in front of him, "You..."
