Farm Gate Business Tycoon

Chapter 46
Gu Liushi was left speechless by her words, and knew that the slap he just had was a little unreasonable, and those words were too hurtful.

She was not capable of supporting her family. Over the years, it took a lot of effort just to bring up a few children.

Now the fourth son’s marriage has not been settled, and the youngest daughter’s dowry has also not been settled, and her hands are always tight. That is, the youngest daughter’s money earned by selling flowers has subsidized her by dozens of taels in recent days. Risong is a little faster, and life is no longer so sad.

Thinking of this, she sighed faintly, "I'm also worried about you. It's not good for a girl who hasn't left the court to do business in public. When something like this happened again, I was confused for a while, so I hit you."

"Mother, there is no overnight feud between mother and daughter. I don't blame you for hitting me. I just want you to know why I did this?" Gu Qingmei also knew that Gu Liushi was worried about her, so she was not angry, and still Speak softly.

"Since ancient times, they have laughed at the poor and not at the prostitutes. Although those people may laugh at my daughter for a while, but in the future, when our family's life is better, they should change their faces and say New Year's greetings. So mother , you don’t have to worry about your daughter’s reputation, the daughter’s shougong sand is still there, and her reputation is not damaged, so don’t be afraid of them talking about those gossips.”

"Okay, okay." Gu Sun hurriedly smoothed things over and pulled her up from the ground. "The injury on your head is better. Your body is weak, and you have been frightened again. Don't kneel down. Go wash up and go back to your room to rest."

Gu Qingmei followed her advice and left the Dongli Room, and went to the clean room to wash.

As for Gu Qingyang and Gu Qinglei, the pair of troubled brothers, they were blocked by people in the courtyard, and their horses and carriages were snatched from the hands of the people who went to the market. Naturally, these people refused to let it go and surrounded the two of them Scold endlessly.

After taking a bath, Gu Qingmei heard the noise outside, and knew that the two elder brothers had robbed the horse and the carriage to save her. She couldn't help blaming herself, so she hurried out with a few taels of silver and said a lot of good things. Soothe people away.

Gu Qinglei scratched his scalp with his hands, and said with a silly smile: "It seems that money is the best thing to do!"

Gu Qingmei said: "Now, I have saved some money in my hand, you two can go out and buy some horses later."

Gu Qingyang frowned slightly, "You should save the money as a dowry, it was just an accident, there is a donkey cart at home, it is enough."

"That's not to say, fourth brother, second cousin, the two of you will take part in the government examination this year. If you are lucky enough to pass, you will go to the capital to take part in the general test. Then you can't drive our donkey cart Go to the capital city? You still have the third brother. It will be convenient for you to buy a horse for each of you. If you want to do something in the future, our family’s conditions are not very good, and I can’t buy you a good horse. Let’s buy a few stupid horses first. Just ride a horse."

Hearing what she said, both of them thought it was reasonable, so they didn't say any more objections.

Seeing that the two of them were moved, Gu Qingmei smiled and said, "Second cousin, how much does a horse cost?"

Gu Qinglei smiled naively, feeling a little embarrassed to ask his cousin to buy a horse for him, but he still said: "If it's an ordinary stupid horse, it's only a dozen taels."

Gu Qingmei was taken aback for a moment, she thought a horse was very expensive, but she didn't expect it to be only a dozen taels of silver.

But she calculated carefully, and according to the consumption level here, a dozen taels is actually quite a lot.

She still remembered that when she had just crossed over, her sister-in-law wanted to sell her to marry a yin relative, so she said that 20 taels would be enough for the farmer to eat grain for a year.

Thinking of this, she smiled and said, "Second cousin, come in with me."

As she spoke, she entered the house, took out the key to the suitcase from under the kang mat, opened the suitcase, took out 100 taels of silver from inside, wrapped it in fur skin, and handed it to Gu Qinglei, "Second cousin, here is 100 taels. Take it, and go to the city with my father tomorrow morning, and then pick up three horses and bring back saddles, and buy them together."

"Okay!" Gu Qinglei didn't try to be hypocritical with her, he agreed to her request straight away, took the money, and then left and went back to his home.

Gu Qingmei felt thirsty, so she poured herself a cup of cold tea, sat at the table, and sipped it in small sips.

Can't help but think of that domineering and cold-looking man.

She fell in love with him at first sight!
In her previous life, she had seen all kinds of men, and she had seen quite a few men who were domineering, but she fell in love with this man named Murong Yu alone.

Although his age looks younger than his actual age, as the saying goes, age is not a problem, height is not a distance.

And now, her appearance is only 15 years old.

As long as he has no wife in his family, he will have a chance.

However, speaking of it, she was quite strange. The man seemed to be at least in his 20s, how could he not have married yet?You know, this is ancient times. It is said that the law stipulates that women can start a family when they are fourteen and men are fifteen.

If you have a chance, you have to inquire about it.

Early the next morning, Gu Qinglei took a ride with Gu Yunbai and went into the city with Gu Qingyang. At noon, he brought back three horses.

The horses have good teeth and mouths, and they are all three or four-year-old horses, which are the age for service.

When Gu Qingyong heard that she had bought a horse for herself, she was overjoyed.

Gu Qingmei asked Gu Qinglei to take care of the three horses. As for her, she still started to draw her fancy looks.

She likes that man named Murong Yu, but she also knows the gap between herself and him.

If she wanted to marry him, she could only work hard to have an identity that matched him.

In this case, she still has a chance, otherwise, she doesn't even have a chance.

However, she didn't have a complete plan in her mind on how to have an identity that was enough to match him, but she had a goal.

The fourth brother and the second cousin will both become pawns for her to achieve this goal.

The atmosphere in Murong Villa was solemn. In the study room in the front yard, an old man was sitting. This old man was wearing a ochre-red flower robe, and his gray hair was tied high on the top of his head with a silver crown.

He is none other than the current head of the Murong family, Murong Ning, king of Mu County.

Murong Yu stood aside respectfully, holding a memorial in his hand, and was reading aloud, "The secret report from the Northwest, the prince of the vassal state died suddenly, and the other sixteen princes fought fiercely. Now, the most powerful is the Ninth Prince Yixiong, There are [-] elite soldiers under his command. The thirteenth prince is a bit weaker, and the eighth prince, Tong Xi, is already dead. I don't know who did it."

Murong Ning's face sank like water, he twisted the white beard under his jaw with his hands, his old eyes narrowed slightly, just like an old fox.
