Value peace

Chapter 7 Intricacies
Wake up the next day, another day.

Gu Xiyan looked at herself in the mirror.Lake-green half arms, white pleated skirt, white butterfly shoes, black hair combed into two buns, as soon as she walks around, Xue'e in the shape of a butterfly the size of a thumb inserted into the two buns trembles, completely Dressed like a rich lady.

This is my new image.Gu Xiyan sighed in her heart, why did she feel like she was acting as a painted skin.Thinking of this, a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Hengyue, who was waiting for her to comb her hair, immediately asked with concern: "Young lady doesn't like this hairstyle, why don't you change it."

She slept late yesterday, and now it's high in the sun, Gu Xiyan still remembers what she told Duan Niang yesterday, so how could she be entangled in such a small issue as hairstyle.She shook her head and said, "Very good!"

When Hengyue heard this, she pursed her lips and smiled slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in her smile.

After all, she was still a little girl, and she was happy when she was praised a few times.Gu Xiyan thought to herself, and asked Hengyue: "Where is Duan Niang?"

Hengyue tidied up the toilet utensils at the side, and said, "I went out early in the morning, I didn't tell you what to do!"

Before Gu Xiyan could speak, there was a commotion outside.

Hengyue frowned and said, "Second Miss, I'll go out and have a look."

Gu Xiyan nodded, and Hengyue walked out the door, muttering: "Who is so ignorant of the rules..."

Before Hengyue left for a minute, she ran in with a pale face: "Second Miss, Deacon Ding, please see me!"

Gu Xiyan was silent for a while, and said, "Let him in!"

When Hengyue heard this, her face turned even paler, and she murmured, "Second girl, here, here, Duanniang is not here..."

Gu Xiyan smiled at Hengyue reassuringly, and said: "He came to see me, not Duanniang! It doesn't matter, you just let him in." After speaking, she felt that something was wrong, but now In ancient times, of course we couldn't meet in the bedroom, and I don't know if we could meet in the hall.Gu Xiyan added: "Where do you think I can meet him?"

Hengyue "this, this, this" for a long time, before saying: "Or, as usual, let him answer outside the bamboo curtain."

Gu Xiyan smiled and said: "You are very considerate, let him answer outside the bamboo curtain!"

When Hengyue heard it, her face blushed, she smiled sweetly, and happily went out to spread the word.

Gu Xiyan sat down in the main room, and Hengyue stood behind her with a wary look.Gu Xiyan smiled, from the looks of it, the relationship between Duanniang and Deacon Ding is not usually tense!

After a while, a tall and thin young man appeared outside the bamboo curtain, wearing a sky-blue gown, a dark-blue belt, and looking neat and tidy.He saluted Gu Xiyan very respectfully, and said in a gentle voice with a bit of flattery: "The second girl told me to leave early the next morning to go back to Shengjing, who would have expected to arrive at the next day?" But my mother told me to wait another two days, because there has been no news of the second girl, and I don't know what happened, but it really made me anxious."

"I'm bothering you." Gu Xiyan smiled lightly, "The last time you came to see me, I happened to fall asleep, and Duan Niang told me the next day, what's the matter with you and me?"

Deacon Ding looked around and said hesitantly, "This, this..."

Gu Xiyan said kindly, "Just tell me what you have to do, and there are no outsiders here?"

Deacon Ding thought for a while, and said, "Last time, Miss asked me to find you a nanny in the house... Do you think about this?"

Hearing what he said, Gu Xiyan remembered that little Gu Xiyan wanted to change the occupants.She is young, if Deacon Ding hadn't been cowardly, how could she have such thoughts, if she wanted to change, she would change if she wanted Shuzhou, and she would have to wait until now.It's no wonder that the relationship between Deacon Ding and Duanniang is so stiff.Gu Xiyan has stayed in the mall for a long time, and knows that everyone will try their best to provide some employment opportunities for their relatives and friends in order to survive.Judging from the voice, the dispute between Deacon Ding and Duanniang may also be related to this.With my current state, it is good to be able to change people, but it is really wrong to change people rashly.It's like when Gu Xiyan changed departments for the first time, she rashly changed a few subordinates who didn't cooperate with her work, and as a result, other colleagues said that she wanted to run a "family world"... Finally, it took the boss's hard work to let her go. All the work was formalized, and later Gu Xiyan changed departments, so she understood the method and means of step-by-step.

"Please keep it in your heart!" Gu Xiyan said politely, "That's not a ignorant remark. I can't decide if someone needs to be changed in this room. It's better for my mother and father to decide when I go back. Righteousness, what you say is true!"

Deacon Ding was stunned, and said with a smile, "That's right, that's right. The second girl is no doubt from a wealthy family, she thinks about everything properly and makes sense."

Gu Xiyan felt that the words were a bit catchy, so she remembered them in her heart, exchanged pleasantries with Deacon Ding, and after sending Deacon Ding away, Gu Xiyan asked Hengyue: "Is Deacon Ding's background very low?"

In the past, Gu Xiyan had a bad temper and liked to tease them, but she never said that she wanted to change the people in the house. It was this time when she went to Shengjing, that Deacon Ding gave the girl a box of gouache, and she had a conversation with the girl. With the idea of ​​substitution.They all knew that Deacon Ding had instigated him, seeing him was like seeing an enemy.Just now when Gu Xiyan defended them, Hengyue suddenly felt that the girl seemed to have opened up, and suddenly understood the truth, maybe it was just like what Duanniang said, when you get old, you will naturally become sensible.So Gu Xiyan's questioning didn't make her feel that there was anything wrong with it, she just felt that the girl was sensible, unlike before, she only knew how to tease people, she only knew how to play.When Hengyue thought about it, she answered with joy in her voice: "Young lady asked. That deacon is from Mrs. Liu's natal family, and Mrs. Liu's natal family can also be called a rich family, but compared to the second girl's biological mother For the Lian family, there is one heaven and one underground."

Gu Xiyan listened to it in her ears, kept it in her heart, and collected as much information as possible.

She took the opportunity to ask: "What kind of method is there?"

Hengyue smiled and replied: "The Lian family has been handed down for 600 years. In the Xizhao Dynasty, they got a special shipping camp. In the entire Xia Kingdom, there are only a handful of scholar families, even the Gu family. It’s not as good as Lianjia.”

Xia Guo?
Gu Xiyan had a lot of doubts, but she couldn't ask directly, so she could only politely say: "To be honest with you, is there anyone who can compare to Lian Jia?"

Hengyue said: "The Lei family who opened the salt field in Hainan County, the Qin family who planted tea, the Wu family who weaved cloth in Jiangnan County, the Tu family who opened a bank, and even Mrs. Liu's natal family have no less money than Lian's family, but who is like them?" The Lian family is a gentry family! They are also a gentry family and have money. I really can’t find another family in this Xia Kingdom besides the Lian family!”

Gu Xiyan smiled and said, "What day is it today!"

Hengyue thought for a while, and replied, "Today is the year 2114 of the Xia calendar, and June 299 is the year 6 of the Xizhao calendar."

Xizhao calendar 299 years?
Gu Xiyan smiled wryly.I studied Chinese at university. As the saying goes: Literature and history are not separated. If you have traveled to ancient times, you may still have some advantages. Now you have traveled to a strange time and space. How is this different from living in the 21st century? I am also worried about war. I'm also worried about riots...but so what?My own body is gone, even if I find the "way home", it is difficult to possess someone else... Such a troublesome and terrifying event, it is better not to go through it again!Gu Xiyan thought a little Ah Q.

She heaved a long sigh.

Duan Niang didn't know what to do that day, and she didn't disappear until lunch, and the girls in the room started to panic, not knowing what to do.

Talang is a girl with dark skin, big eyes and thick lips, about the same age as Hengyue, and looks very dull.She actually came up with an idea: "Why don't you ask Deacon Ding?"

Xing Hong is about the same age as Mo Ju, with almond eyes and peach cheeks, gentle and graceful brows, a peerless beauty, the best-looking among these little girls.She immediately objected: "He's a weasel giving chicken New Year's greetings. Ask him. He will definitely say that Auntie Duan is not doing her job well, and she is encouraging Second Miss to sell us..." Before she could say anything, Mo Ju and Heng Yue coughed loudly respectively.Xing Hong immediately knew that she had slipped her tongue, and looked at Gu Xiyan with a blushing face, muttering silently.

Mo Ju immediately changed the topic: "Second Miss, Qixia Temple is in Fuchun County, only half a day away from Shengjing, so we don't need to hurry. You have been traveling hard during this period, so why don't you take advantage of this opportunity?" Take a good rest and go to see the master with a radiant face, what do you think?"

Gu Xiyan listened to their discussion with a smile all the time.See Weizhi's works.Among the four little girls, Hengyue and Moju are quite wealthy, but Hengyue is more tactful than Moju, Xinghong's wrong words are just a proper reminder, Moju may have a better relationship with Xinghong, It may also be more righteous, so not only to remind, but also to help.Xinghong is straightforward and smart enough, but she is relatively young and does not know how to hide herself; Tidelang is relatively slow... Gu Xiyan heard Mo Ju ask her, and nodded with a smile: "You have also worked hard these days Let’s take advantage of this opportunity to fix things up!”

Ta Lang murmured: "If Deacon Ding asks, what shall we say?"

Gu Xiyan cast her eyes on Hengyue, and everyone followed Gu Xiyan's gaze towards Hengyue.

Surprise flashed across Hengyue's face, she didn't expect that the second girl would let her make up her mind, is this a faint admission that she will be the big girl in this room from now on?A trace of joy flashed in Hengyue's heart, but she suppressed the joy as soon as it reached her throat.The second girl is sweet when she is kind to others, and like a knife when she hurts you. She has tasted it a long time ago, and now she is asked to make up her mind. I don't know if it is sincere or to test her?Hengyue couldn't make up her mind for a while, but everyone's eyes were on her, and she couldn't be stage fright at this moment, otherwise, no one in this room would convince her in the future.Hengyue gathered herself together, and said unhurriedly: "He is a servant, the girl will see you when she says she sees her, and she won't see her if she doesn't see her. Tell him anything. We just listen to the girl's orders."

Gu Xiyan didn't expect that Hengyue's words would really fit the hierarchy of this feudal society!However, judging from the current situation, such a disposal is the best.She thought for a while, and said in a deep voice to the little girls: "That's it! If there's anything wrong, you go back to Hengyue. Hengyue, if you can't make up your mind, come talk to me again."

Hengyue could no longer contain the joy on her face.
