Peach Blossom at the Bottom of the Fan

Chapter 166 Evil has evil retribution
"Leave later?" Standing in front of the door, watching the concubines being dragged down, Mrs. He's expression gradually eased a bit.

Turning her head and looking at Gu Sixiao, she said lightly: "There is no place to live here, how can I stay here?!"

Smiling, she sneered again, "When he first became the county magistrate, I was the one who accompanied him to the post. When he became the magistrate, there were many beautiful concubines around him. How could he remember who was in trouble with him back then! Now But, if he is in trouble, I will be the only one by his side after all!"

Covering her mouth, Mrs. He herself may not realize that her smile is a little distorted.

"He Anshi, in the end, you are nothing more than nothing, except for me, a poor wife, there is nothing left..."

I am afraid that in the end, there will be no life left.

It's hard to say more bluntly, Gu Sixiao persuaded a few more words, but could only leave resentfully.

After returning to Xue's house, after thinking for a long time, she finally drew a picture of appreciating spring herself.

What was drawn was the yellow shirt she was wearing when I met He Chu.

With the same eyebrows, clear eyes, and bright smile, she is still the carefree and innocent girl.

When Zhifu He's family left Jinan, Gu Sixiao went to see them off.

In addition to the paintings for He Yue, he also prepared some food.

When He Yue received the painting, she kept laughing. Mrs. He also got out of the car to thank her, speaking very politely.

On the other bullock cart, He Anshi, the former magistrate and now a commoner, sat cross-legged, wearing a wrinkled shirt, no matter how you looked at it, he looked sloppy.

His face was ashen, his eyes were dull, and the high spirits he had once had were all gone now.

Probably, he didn't even listen to what the people next to him were saying? !
Staring at He Anshi coldly, Gu Sixiao really wanted to go up to him and ask him: "Now that I'm in this situation, do you ever regret doing that outrageous thing?"

It's a pity that she can only think about it in her heart, and she can't go forward to ask.

Even if she asked, probably He Anshi would not regret it, would he?Before prosperity and wealth, all morality and justice are empty.

Saying goodbye to each other, and finally having to say goodbye, He Yue got into the car crying and waving her hands all the time.

Mrs. He saluted and was about to turn around when someone galloped towards her suddenly.

Jumping off the horse, he rushed over, but handed a box to Mrs. He's hand.

Open the vermilion box, there are several "story books" in the box, and there are libretto, except for these few books, there is nothing else, there is no post, and the sender didn't even say who gave it He left without a word.

However, seeing these things, Gu Sixiao immediately knew who sent them.

Mrs. He lowered her eyes, her expression was gloomy, and it took a long time before she smiled.

Obviously, she also knew who gave the gift.

After sending He's family away, it has been raining in Jinan.

For several days in a row, it rained cats and dogs, and the sky was overcast like it was always dark.

The news that He Anshi met bandits in the outskirts of Ping'an County, was killed and died, came during the heavy rain.

It was already expected, but when I first heard it, I still felt depressed.

Zheng Xuan really did everything right, in order to kill people and silence them, he didn't even wait a day.He died just like that before he had completely walked out of Jinan Mansion.

"The gangsters in this world are really arrogant. No matter what officials they are, as long as they leave office, they will be robbed and killed..."

How useful is such an excuse?No matter who they are, as long as they must die, there must be "robbers" on the road ahead.

Knowing that Gu Sixiao thought of General Li who died that year, Su Jingchun didn't speak, but gently hugged Gu Sixiao into his arms.

Leaning her head in his arms, Gu Sixiao took a deep breath, and suddenly said with a smile: "Mr. Su, you are not afraid of being seen like this, and won't treat you as a gentleman anymore?"

"Who says I'm an honest gentleman?" Su Jingchun smiled, and said lightly: "If I am really an honest gentleman, can I still be hooked by you, a vixen?!"

Gu Sixiao's face became hot, she straightened up, and pushed him coquettishly.

This is a recent rumor that the illegitimate daughter of the Xue family is a vixen, and she did not know how to seduce the young master of the Su family.

At first, Gu Sixiao felt that Zheng Xuan had people spread this kind of rumor, but after a long time, Zheng Xuan also left, and the news still didn't dissipate, but spread more and more intensely.

Xue Wanhua wanted to report to the officials for a thorough investigation, but Gu Sixiao stopped her.

Apart from Zheng Xuan, the only people who would spread such rumors were Xue Wanying and Li Chongyang.

If the reporter finds out, it will only make Xue's family a joke in Jinan Prefecture.

It's just these words, but you can't tell Xue Wanhua Ming.Xue Wanhua is shrewd, but she has never doubted Xue Wanying.Even if this younger sister did too much, she would just think that Xue Wanying was playing petty temper again.

Always say, "Your third sister has a bad temper, but she's not a bad person."

Because of this, even though Gu Sixiao had already guessed the truth, she still didn't tell Xue Wanhua.

I just found Xue Wanying behind my back, "I don't know if the third sister asked someone to release those words, or the third brother-in-law. But no matter which one, stop it!"

"Are you afraid of being ugly too?!" Xue Wanying sneered, looking at Gu Sixiao with a bit of complacency, "Now you know, come and beg me!"

"I'm not begging you, but I want to tell you that those rumors ultimately hurt not me, but the Xue family."

Gu Sixiao was very calm, "As grandma said, you are from the Xue family, the Xue family should be the first thing you think of, not like now, because of a moment of anger, it will destroy the reputation of the Xue family."

Staring at Xue Wanying, Gu Sixiao said flatly: "You have thought about it clearly, are you doing this right?"

After saying this, Gu Sixiao turned around and left. When she walked out the door, she heard Xue Wanying yelling angrily: "When is it your turn to teach me a lesson, Gu Hua'er, what are you!"

Without looking back, Gu Sixiao met Li Chongyang head-on, but just pretended not to see him.

It was Li Chongyang who suddenly stopped her, "Little sister, your third sister has a bad temper and has a quick temper. You also know that she is pregnant with the flesh and blood of Xue's family, so don't be angry with her all the time!"

The ability to fight back is really high.

Gu Sixiao raised his eyes to look at him, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, I think the third sister is in good health, even if our sisters quarrel, it will only make her angry. But you, don't make any messes , that would really make Third Sister mad. Ah, and, I forgot to mention, Xiaoyu was fired yesterday!"

Li Chongyang's complexion did not change, and he didn't even make a sound. He just looked at Gu Sixiao and said softly: "I never knew why my little sister hated me. In fact, you are also engaged now, and you are going to get married soon. Xue It's not your turn to inherit the family business, so what else do you have to fight for?"

Laughing out loud, Gu Sixiao looked at Li Chongyang and said lightly: "I've never fought before, it's brother-in-law, you have always treated a gentleman's belly with a villain's heart. Also, if you want to fight yourself, you always put Others want to be enemies first, to prevent others from fighting. If you ask me, why bother! Naturally, I will not inherit the family business of the Xue family, and it is impossible for you, a visiting son-in-law, to inherit it. Did you spend all your time thinking about the delusions around you?!"

"Delusion!" Li Chongyang smiled, "You are wrong, I have never had delusions. I just want to help make the Xue family better, and I have always been a person who knows how to repay her kindness."

Who would believe such words? !
If he really didn't want to take over the Xue family's property, why would he secretly hook up with Xiaoyu and make Xiaoyu his eyeliner?

Take Li Chongyang's words as wind on your ears, just listen to them.

Gu Sixiao focused on the store that was about to open.It's autumn, and the fan festival is over.

Moreover, the new shop does not have any old customers, so it is inevitable that the business will be bleak.

Fortunately, Gu Sixiao didn't lose any of the skills she learned in Xue's golden building.

As soon as the shop opened, apart from a few high-quality fans, all kinds of small, beautiful and exquisite jewelry were launched.

It's just that her jewelry doesn't sell gold and silver, but all kinds of jade, agate, gemstones, coral and so on.

Generally speaking, these things are just embellishments inlaid on gold and silver jewelry, and few jewelry are specially made of these materials.

But Gu Sixiao did the opposite, the materials used for the jewelry in the store were completely different from those of the Xue family.

In addition to all kinds of precious stones, there are also various exquisitely carved wooden and bamboo hairpins.

The most different thing is that the things in her shop are all unique.

In less than half a month, this shop named "Yazhi" has become a well-known shop that is often mentioned by ladies and gentlemen in Jinan Mansion.

I don't even know when, there is such a saying that wearing gold and silver is tacky, and only "elegant" and unique jewelry is the most elegant.

There are many young girls who like elegant and beautiful accessories. It is not surprising that "elegance" has become the favorite of girls.

In fact, Lin Mo Niang's contribution here is the greatest.

Earlier, Lin Mo Niang had an elegant name in Jinan's boudoir, and now she is about to marry into the Beijing Zhonghou's Mansion, which naturally has more appeal.

Even Lin Mo Niang admires and loves it, so it is naturally good.

Because of this, Gu Sixiao made a special trip to the Lin Mansion to thank her.

Lin Mo Niang only laughed at her for being "too outsider".

"Not to mention that we are good sisters in the boudoir, that is, Mr. Su and the eldest son, they are also close friends, and they are not far or near, and they have relatives in-law. Why are you being polite to me?!"

Facing Gu Sixiao, Lin Mo Niang was still so gentle and kind, but Gu Sixiao vaguely felt that something was different.

The kindness in the past was really knowing each other and cherishing each other, without mixing anything else.But now, Lin Mo Niang has already started to prepare for marrying into the Hou Mansion.

More than half of the love for her was because she felt that Zheng Xuan and Su Jingchun had a good relationship, so she wanted to win her over.

This is really a big misunderstanding.But Gu Sixiao naturally wouldn't remind Lin Moniang of this misunderstanding, not only didn't wake up, but took this opportunity to get closer to Lin Moniang.

She also persuaded her, but Lin Mo Niang really only regards Zheng Xuan as a good person, and only looks forward to a bright future, so what can she do?

You can't tell the truth to Lin Mo Niang. If you tell the truth, I'm afraid that Lin Mo Niang will not rein in the precipice, but will only treat her as a lunatic, and even talk about it with Zheng Xuan.

Helpless, she is not a fairy, and she can't save anyone.Just like He Yue, she also thought about saving her and Mrs. He, but in the end she couldn't.

That day when He Anshi died, He Yue fell in panic and broke a leg. Although she survived later, she became lame.

Mrs. He sold her concubine, sent her servants, and sold all the things that could be sold in Jinan, and most of the money and jewelry she got in exchange were also taken away.

Heartbroken, he took He Yue back to his hometown in Anhui.It's been a long way, and I don't know where they are now, or if they are doing well.

But it is conceivable that even if the criminal officials' wives and daughters return to their hometowns, they will not be as beautiful as before.

As for He Yue, who has a lame foot and bears the reputation of being the daughter of a criminal minister, it is even more unknown what will happen to her marriage in the future.

Sometimes thinking of these, Gu Sixiao also feels very emotional.

What should come will always come, and no one can save anyone.Just like she can't persuade Lin Mo Niang now.
