Lord Shang Shu is easy to bend down

Chapter 196 Troubled 9 (Hiding People)
Xie Yuanniang glanced at the shop he was in again, it was a shop selling white things, and the shopkeeper Lu's spirit was not very good, Xie Yuanniang guessed a little bit, but he didn't want to ask more.

"The second girl never came to the Zhuangyuan Building last time. I met you today. I wonder if the girl can help you?" Shopkeeper Lu said, "It's not counted as the champion of the Zhuangyuan Building."

He looked behind Xie Yuanniang.

Xie Yuanniang understood, she was grateful in her heart, and said with a smile on her face, "Then please trouble Shopkeeper Lu to see if there is any place for me to hide."

She didn't know who was following behind, and she didn't want to cause trouble to an innocent person.

Shopkeeper Lu smiled, made a gesture of invitation, and entered the shop by himself. Xie Yuanniang followed behind with Ling Mei, and entered the backyard of the shop through the small corner door next to the counter, and his sight widened. It looks like there are a lot of paper-made supplies outside, but it is very elegant, completely two worlds.

Even a careless girl like Ling Mei was slightly taken aback when she saw it.

"This shop is opened by a friend of mine. If you don't mind the second girl, let's drink some tea here first." As soon as the shopkeeper Lu's voice fell, a man who looked like a second child came out from inside, holding tea supplies in his hand. The shopkeeper personally brought it over to Xie Yuanniang.

Xie Yuanniang thanked, but shopkeeper Lu said, "Speaking of which, I still want to thank the second girl."

Xie Yuanniang looked at him inexplicably.

Shopkeeper Lu smiled warmly, "It is a great favor to Lu Mou that the second girl begged my younger brother. In the future, if the second girl has something to do, you can go to the Zhuangyuan Building to find Lu Mou."

"Your brother?" Xie Yuanniang really didn't know.

"Beyond the outskirts of the city." A clear voice sounded from behind, and Xie Yuanniang turned her head.

Uncle?
She widened her eyes.

Why is little uncle here?

With a smile on his face and a gentle expression, Gu Yuan stood behind his hands behind his back, wearing a white straight gown, slim and bright, with bright stars and moon eyes, "The person who gave you the account book is the younger brother of the shopkeeper Lu."

Confused and startled, Xie Yuanniang finally understood, and when she thought of Shopkeeper Lu appearing here, she suddenly realized, that's right, that person is dead, and Shopkeeper Lu is here, isn't it just helping his younger brother? Do something for nothing?

Facing Xie Yuanniang's gaze, shopkeeper Lu smiled, bowed to Gu Yuan again, and retreated politely.

"Sit down, there are no outsiders here." Gu Yuan poured a cup of tea on his own, and the hand protruding from the dark yellow tea cup became more and more slender and fair.

People can involuntarily notice and look more.

Jiang Yi, who was standing by the side, twitched the corners of his mouth, unable to watch it any longer, "Second Miss, please sit down."

Being reminded again, Xie Yuanniang realized later that she was too startled just now, and had already jumped up. Facing the gentle gaze of her little uncle, Xie Yuanniang was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground, her ears were hot sat down.

In the previous life, she was too mature in front of her little uncle. Although the little uncle didn't point it out, he also changed his direction to let her not worry too much. I don't know if it was because she was too mature in the previous life, but in this life she panicked like a child. messy.

For a while, no one spoke, and the courtyard was extremely quiet, which made Mei feel rough, but she also felt so quiet, making her whole body uncomfortable, and she couldn't tell exactly why, if Xie Yuanniang heard her heart, she would surely He would tell her that it was a matter of aura, and when he was with Gu Cifu, even if he didn't speak, the aura would press on him.

In fact, Xie Yuanniang felt that it was not good to say nothing like this, "Why is Mr. Gu here?"

Opening their mouths, both the master and the servant silently breathed a sigh of relief.

"On the day of Cuju, Zongren Mansion's first team was very good. It's just that they formed a team at the beginning and didn't get used to it, so they fell into success." After Gu Yuan explained, he also smiled inwardly.

He, Gu Er, has always been cold-hearted. If his mother hadn't cried and begged him to come back and support Gu's mansion, he would have gone away long ago.

But with such a cold heart, he sat here today, afraid that the little girl might think about Ren Xianhong, so he sat here to explain.

Gu Yuan smiled.

That's all, that day, he just didn't want to see the county prince's mansion go big, and the man in the little girl's heart fell down again. It was his fault, and she had to explain it for her.

Xie Yuanniang didn't understand Gu Yuan's thoughts at all. She didn't understand why the little uncle explained this. The little uncle is a person who always does things with a purpose. It is impossible to say this sentence for no reason, so what is the purpose?

Xie Yuanniang thought for a long time but didn't come up with a reason, so she just ignored those things and only asked what she cared about, "Little Uncle Cuju, aren't you afraid of being recognized?"

"Are you saying that in the eyes of outsiders, my informal smile will ruin my image?"

Xie Yuanniang nodded.

It's good to talk with the little uncle. You only need to ask the first half of the sentence, and he can guess the second half of the sentence if you are embarrassed to ask.

Gu Yuan looked into her sparkling eyes, and remembered the little milk cat he raised when he was young, so cute that people couldn't help but want to rub its head, his voice became softer, and he leaned slightly on the chair , the morbid laziness reveals a majesty that cannot be ignored, "Have you ever heard people talk about my cuju?"

Xie Yuanniang shook her head, "No."

"The world is so big, how few people are afraid of power? Jinling City's aristocratic families are intertwined, and they don't dare to act rashly. Those from the big aristocratic families know more about what can be said and what can't be said. This That’s the way to be an official.”

Xie Yuanniang nodded, "Little uncle is always right."

Uncle?
Ling Mei's face changed drastically.

Although she didn't know the identity of this Mr. Gu, she was scary just because he didn't speak there, and the attitude of the servants towards him, and she knew that his status was not low. Besides, there was only one Mr. Gu's family in Jinling City, so Mei made a guess. Seven seven eight eight, seeing the girl called little uncle at this time, how can I not change my face.

Jiang Yi had long been used to it, and stood respectfully with his head bowed.

What changed his expression greatly was the attitude of the master,

Gu Yuan didn't remind her that she called the wrong person again, and he felt inexplicably good about the inexplicable trust in the little girl and the admiration in her eyes, "The one following you outside is the young master, you no need to worry."

He asked again, "Did you come out today for something?"

Jiang Yi's expression was horrified, the always stern master would sit here calmly and chat with the little girl in his boudoir.

Xie Yuanniang likes to chat with her little uncle, "The old man's birthday is coming up, I heard that there is a shop here that sells very special jewelry, so I want to come and have a look."

Ling Mei abruptly raised her head and glanced at the master, when she came out, the girl only said to go, and didn't say anything about it.

She didn't hide her actions, and naturally she didn't escape Gu Yuan's gaze.
