I'll be a nanny for the lord

Chapter 219 Gossip Can Kill

Not long after Yan Sanlang left, Song Jinyan arrived with a few lambs.

"Sister and brother-in-law, it's a good thing you didn't fall for this guy! Do you know? This Yan Sanlang, when he came here to invite you, he already let the word out, saying that he finally found Gu Ji's descendants left behind by the people! He I'm going to take you back!"

"Because of his words, the provincial capital was stirred up. How many people are waiting to see who he brings back!"

really!

Xia Ying's face darkened. "Why didn't you come and tell us about such an important matter?"

"Is this necessary? You didn't intend to follow him!" Song Jinyan said with a smile.

"This person spread the news that he found you so wantonly, just waiting for you to meet pressure from all sides when you arrive in the provincial capital! Your family is so smart, you will definitely not be fooled by him. So I just said Just continue to be busy with my own affairs, I will come to inquire about the situation when I am done, and I will tell you the news I have heard."

This guy really trusted them a lot.

Xia Ying twitched the corner of her mouth. "Then how did he behave after he returned?"

"Isn't it just crying and crying, struggling to get up countless times to say that he still wants to come to you? But because he was too sick, he always collapsed as soon as he reached the door, and then was dragged back by his family. After a long time, everyone knew what he was thinking, and praised him as a kind and righteous man!"

While Song Jinyan was talking, he pouted at them again. "This guy has made a lot of money this time! If you go back with him, he will be a great contributor to supporting Gu Ji. Regardless of whether Gu Ji can successfully restore his former glory, he will gain both fame and fortune; if you don't go back, his performance It is also enough to attract everyone's favor to him, and he is still famous and rich."

"Oh, sister and brother-in-law, what should we do? You have met a difficult opponent this time!"

"But, we have never seen him as an opponent!" Xia Ying said.

Song Jinyan choked. "Really do not have?"

"Of course not." Xia Ying shook her head, "How he likes to act and how to earn himself a reputation is his own business. Now it's the end of the year, and after the new year, there will be a boy trial in the county, and Brother Long has decided to end at that time. Our whole family is busy with this now, who cares about the affairs of the provincial capital?"

Song Jinyan was so speechless.

"Are you sure that brother Long's success as a scholar can be compared with the fame and fortune in the provincial capital?"

"Of course they can't be compared. Obviously, Brother Long's matter is more important, okay?" Xia Ying said immediately.

Gu Tuo also nodded. "Those money and fame, Yan San can take it if he wants it! We don't care."

"You guys are really generous." Song Jinyan shook his head helplessly.

"Speak as if you are really happy for us to go to the provincial capital!" Xia Ying glared at him angrily, "These days, who is desperately picking up jobs for us? Don't you want to keep us going all the time? Do you mean to stay here?"

Song Jinyan grinned. "Really, I was seen through by you again!"

"Well, actually, I also think that now is not the best time to go to the provincial capital. This Yan Sanlang is so eager to get you back, and he definitely has an ulterior motive! You are not willing to let him get what he wants, and neither am I. With this time, we might as well lay the foundation here first.”

"Otherwise, I'm too greedy and aggressive. Once there is any mistake, it will be completely defeated. I have worked so hard to plan for you for so long, but I didn't intend to see you end up like this!"

"By the way... it will be my big day soon. I am still waiting for my sister to help me take care of my wife! As long as he is half as smart as you, my life will be very nourishing!"

Look, this guy also clearly planned their use!
Xia Ying hummed lightly. "I knew it, you wouldn't let me go so easily!"

"Of course. I finally found a sister who is strong and loves me, so of course I will use you thoroughly." Song Jinyan nodded unceremoniously.

He made his purpose clear!

Xia Ying stretched out her hand angrily. "What about your list? Is it ready?"

"It's been listed a long time ago, I'll just wait for you to have a look at it!" Song Jinyan nodded quickly, and he took out the list and handed it to her.

In the following days, Xia Ying was also busy preparing the family's autumn and winter clothes, and by the way, helping Song Jinyan manage his marriage.

During this period, Yan Sanlang did not appear again, but his apprentices appeared every now and then.

Every time people come over, they will bring some fashionable good things and put them at their doorstep.

They didn't cry and shout to enter the door, but after putting down their things, they kowtowed to the door of Gu Tuo's house and shouted: "Master Ninth, the filial piety that Master gave you has been delivered!"

After the ceremony, the people left.

They came here every so often, and after a long time, not only everyone in the Gu family village knew about Gu Ji's heirs besides Gu Tuo, but also people in nearby villages and towns.

As a result, the people in Gujia Village listened to the words of the patriarch and stopped coming to persuade them to recognize this relative, but everyone whispered more and more in private.

People in other villages were even more rude, and some people even opened their mouths and grinned: "Why don't you agree? It must be because this Gu Tuo is not good at craftsmanship, and the masters in the provincial capital don't like the things he made, so he just said yes to it." He refuses to go with Yan San for life or death. He is afraid of revealing his secrets!"

At the beginning, the words were said like this, and then gradually after countless people added oil and vinegar, the taste gradually changed.

The rumors outside began to turn into - Gu Tuo was actually just a child of a slave in Gu Ji, and he had never received the orthodox training of the Gu family since he was a child.So the carpentry work he did was not on the table, and he was not considered an orthodox descendant of Gu Ji at all!
Even more vicious, they directly spread rumors that the children Gu Tuo brought back to the village were also said to be born by his mother who did not know who fooled around, and then he all pretended to be the children of Gu's family.Anyway, even if he was sure that Gu Ji was down, no one came to beat him up!
Rumors continued, and even the villagers looked at them with something strange in their eyes.

Seeing this, the Seventh Aunt next door started jumping up and down again.She didn't talk about it in the village, but ran out to speak ill of Xia Ying in other villages, and cried and told Gu Tuo and his son that they all looked decent, but they were actually not good things!

Then she made it up again, anyway, she can say whatever is bizarre and caters to other people's tastes.

When Xia Ying heard the news, she rolled up her sleeves. "I think she's getting impatient! It just so happens that my fist hasn't seen blood for a long time, so I'm going to have some fun today!"

"Mother, mother, I'll go with you!" Gu Yuanhao hurriedly shouted.

Xia Ying nodded immediately.

The mother and son were about to go to Seventh Aunt's house to find something, but they saw that Seventh Aunt had come back with a bruised nose and a swollen face!
