Not only was Mrs. He stunned by these two slaps, but even the rest of the onlookers didn't react for a moment.

But Gu Yu had already raised his voice and cursed loudly: "Our girl didn't want to argue with you along the way, which would only cause more trouble! I didn't expect that you would bite your nose and face, and now you dare to talk about my girl behind my back. No! Do you really think we are easy to bully?! You tongue-tied woman, if you dare to speak again, be careful and I will have your tongue pulled out!"

After being yelled at like this, Mrs. He also reacted.

However, her subconscious reaction was not to scold back, but her face was full of horror, as if she had seen a ghost. She subconsciously hid behind the maid next to her, shouting: "I don't dare anymore! I don't dare anymore." !do not hit me!"

After shouting, she squatted on the ground holding her head, whimpering softly, with a very frightened expression.

Seeing her like this, Gu Yu suddenly became even angrier: "What are you pretending to be! Why didn't you think of what would happen when you said bad things about people behind their backs? You talked all the way, and I slapped you twice, and it was so light!"

"That's too much!" A group of little maids didn't know what Mrs. He was doing along the way. When Gu Yu came up, she slapped her twice, and they all felt that Mrs. He was not worth it.

"Even if you belong to the girl, you don't have to hit them just because of a few words of argument! Fortunately, the girl is from the capital, and the servants around you are like this. What kind of good person can the master be!"

"That's right! What's wrong with our Lady He saying something to you! Seeing how domineering you are, I know that Lady He has not wronged you!"

The little maids were chattering and excited.

Gu Yu was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled and clenched his fists: "Don't think that because you are young, I won't beat you! If you dare to speak disrespectfully again, I will beat you into pig heads!"

As soon as she said these words, the little maids all looked frightened, and indeed they did not dare to speak.

Seeing that the little maids were being honest, Gu Yu didn't bother to argue with them anymore. Instead, he shook his head coolly, turned around and left, and Bai Lu followed suit.

Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to comfort Mrs. He.

In this room, seeing Gu Yu returning excitedly, Jiang Fuyue couldn't help but laugh: "Your momentum is not weak, I didn't know, I thought you were going to the battlefield to fight!"

Guyu chuckled.

Jingzhe frowned slightly and said worriedly: "But girl, if we do this, those people won't say anything in front of us, but in private, I'm afraid they will still discuss it."

And after this incident, it is estimated that they will only make their words worse.

"Never mind them," Jiang Fuyue didn't care. "Anyway, after Mrs. He's words, they don't have a good impression of me. No matter how bad it is, how bad can it be? Let them be, as long as I Just make sure everything is clear before your eyes."

She doesn't have great magical powers and can't control everyone's mouth, so it doesn't matter.

Anyway, she doesn't get along with those girls day and night.

Jiang Fuyue thought for a while, then turned to look at Madam Zhou who said nothing: "Madam, since those people know my identity, in my opinion, it's better to keep them under guard."

Madam Zhou was slightly startled.

Also.

Mrs. He is not the type to swallow her anger, especially in the past few years, her temper has really gotten worse.

Have to guard against it.

So Mrs. Zhou nodded quickly: "Don't worry, girl, I will send someone to lock them in a yard, and then ask someone to take care of them."

After saying that, Mrs. Zhou left in a hurry. Jiang Fuyue wandered around the garden for a while, but still didn't reach the end, so she simply returned the same way.

On that side, Zhou Wan had already entered Qicheng and successfully met Liu Bohua.

The size of the Liu Mansion is no worse than that of the Zhou Mansion, and there are many rare treasures and famous calligraphy and paintings displayed here. It is obvious that the owner has very high taste and is very wealthy. It does not look like he lives in a remote place at all. House.

Liu Bohua was eight feet tall and dressed in black. From the outside, he looked like a handsome young man with extraordinary bearing.

"Miss Wan'er is here, please take a seat quickly," Liu Bohua said politely, "It's still early... Come, please bring Miss Wan'er a cup of golden eyebrows and a plate of wild jujube cake."

The servant's movements were extremely swift, and within the time of a few routine greetings between the two people in the hall, everything was brought up according to Liu Bohua's instructions.

"Young Master Liu is really particular." Zhou Wan looked at the refreshments in front of her with a meaningful tone.

"Sweet with green, sour with red, there are so many things to pay attention to when eating and drinking." Liu Bohua smiled, his deep eyes swept over Zhou Wan, with some regret, "It's a pity that Miss Wan'er I’m not interested in this Tao, so it’s a pity that I can’t talk to Liu to my heart’s content!”

Zhou Wanpi twitched the corner of her mouth with a smile and said: "Nowadays, people outside are moving their families. Mr. Liu still has the thought to match sweet with green and sour with red. This kind of character is really beyond the reach of others." That’s it.”

"What Miss Wan'er said is wrong," Liu Bohua had a soothing smile on his face, "Liu is just a businessman. Businessmen value profits and don't have the awareness to help the world. Is it strange?

Besides, Liu didn’t keep all the food for himself. Didn’t Liu share the food generously? Those people couldn't afford it, what could Liu do? "

Listening to his words, Zhou Wan felt sick in her heart.

"That's all, Miss Wan'er and Mrs. Zhou have noble temperaments, so it's reasonable for them not to be able to empathize with villains like me." Liu Bohua shook his head regretfully, "I just don't know that Miss Wan'er went here specifically for What?"

Seeing that he took the initiative to bring up business, Zhou Wan followed his words, took out the banknote from his sleeve, unfolded it in his hand, and gave Liu Bohua a look from a distance.

Seeing the denomination of Qianliang on it, Liu Bohua's expression instantly became much more solemn: "It seems that Miss Wan'er has a business deal with me?"

Zhou Wan nodded, folded the banknotes again slowly, and said, "Mr. Liu also knows that my wife went to Beijing last year. Not long ago, when she heard about the disaster in Liangzhou, she rushed to When I came back, I met a girl on the way."

Speaking of this, Zhou Wan shook her head and looked helpless: "That girl is the only daughter of a wealthy businessman in the capital. She originally wanted to come to Longyou to experience the customs and customs here, but she didn't expect that there was a famine here. She met a refugee on the way."

"Fortunately, this girl met our Madam Zhou. Mr. Liu also knew that my Madam was kind-hearted, so he took this girl with her. Now this girl lives in our house."

"This girl was born in the capital, and I don't see anyone being displaced. No, just after she settled down, she asked me to find a way out, saying that she wanted to buy eight hundred taels of food and distribute it to the people for free. When I thought about it, this place can swallow eight hundred taels of silver. Aren’t you the one who has one hundred taels of silver, Mr. Liu?”

"So..." Zhou Wan looked at him, with a hint of unnoticeable nervousness in her expression, "Will Mr. Liu do this business?"

When Zhou Wan was talking, Liu Bohua kept looking at her, not missing any subtle change on her face, and the seemingly well-hidden tension did not escape his eyes.

It wasn't until Zhou Wan's words fell that Liu Bohua said with a smile: "Miss Wan'er, since we are doing business, there will be comings and goings. There is money to be made, so there is no reason for Liu to refuse, but... Miss Wan'er is so What are you nervous about? It seems like you are asking for something from me."

"Let me guess, that girl is not from the imperial court. Your Zhou family has joined forces with the imperial court to use these eight hundred taels of silver... to set a trap for me, right?"

Liu Bohua's eyes narrowed, and a cold light suddenly appeared.
