The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Three hundred and twenty-four progress

Chapter 324 Progress (two more)

After all, Gu Jiao is not a real man. There is no such thing as a man or a woman. It's just that Gu Jiao is not used to being so close to people. When Mo Qianxue wiped her forehead and was about to wipe her neck, she grabbed her wrist.

Mo Qianxue glanced at Gu Jiao angrily, then raised her other hand to take off Gu Jiao's mask, but Gu Jiao also grabbed her wrist.

Mo Qianxue herself has martial arts skills, but unfortunately she wasn't as good as Gu Jiao. She couldn't move.

Gu Jiao let go.

Mo Qianxue rolled her eyes, snorted, and threw the towel to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao wiped the sweat from her neck.

The weather was really hot, it would be even hotter if you put on a mask, but fortunately, Mo Qianxue's house was facing the right way, it was warm in winter and cool in summer, and an ice basin was installed, otherwise Gu Jiao might have suffered from heat stroke in situ. .

Gu Jiao put the towel back in the copper basin, and her own little maid came in and took it out.

"Xiao Wu, do you still have the lychees that arrived this morning?" Mo Qianxue asked.

The little maid, who was called Xiao Wu, said: "There are some, some slaves will bring them to the girl!"

Not long after, Xiao Wu brought a plate of iced lychees into it. The lychees were big and plump, with a bright red color, as if they had just been plucked from the tree.

Beijing does not produce lychees, and they are all sent from the south with fast horses and whips. Not only must the horses be fast enough, but also the ice cubes must be replaced along the way. A little accidentally sent to the capital will be broken.

This is a very extravagant fruit. Gu Jiao has only eaten it at Renshou Palace. According to Yao Shi, it was difficult for even the Hou Mansion to get this kind of fruit in previous years.

Who would have thought that a small brothel could eat such extravagant fruits?

Gu Jiao looked at Lizhi, and did not move for a while in deep thought.

"If you don't eat it yourself, are you waiting for me to peel it for you?" Mo Qianxue hummed, but her slender fingers picked up the largest and reddest lychee, peeled the shell and fed it to Gu Jiao's mouth.

The shelled lychee is big, round, white, and bouncy. It is very tender and juicy at first glance.

Eat it yourself, Gu Jiao said with her eyes.

"Humph!" Mo Qianxue rolled her eyes, "I don't take anything back even if I give it away!"

Alas, what's more, and the fruit can't get along?

Gu Jiao reluctantly brought it over, fed it into her mouth and ate it.

She has been a little angry recently and can't eat more lychees.

Seeing her eating, Mo Qianxue's eyes regained a smile, her right elbow rested on the table, her index finger knuckles against her delicate chin, she smiled and looked at Gu Jiao: "Why did you suddenly come to me? Yes? Miss me?"

Gu Jiao took out a small notebook,

Swish wrote: "I didn't come to you."

Mo Qianxue's face sank, snatched away her small notebook, crossed out the word with one stroke, wrote one word at the top, and added a sentence at the end - I miss you very much.

Then he threw the notebook back to Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao: ... is this okay?

Mo Qianxue raised her eyebrows and said, "Did you use your fringe last time? Has the murderer been found?"

Gu Jiao nodded, then shook her head again.

Mo Qianxue frowned slightly: "What do you mean? Is it found or not found?"

Gu Jiao swishly wrote: "Half of the investigation."

It was Yuan Tang who did it, but it was difficult for Yuan Tang to facilitate this, and Gu Jiao felt more and more that he had a helper.

"Then there's nothing I can do." Mo Qianxue spread her hands, "I also accidentally overheard their conversation and picked up one of them's tassels."

Therefore, the place where Yuan Tang communicated with that person was in Xianleju. Not anyone could come in at Xianleju. The other party was either a guest of Xianleju or someone inside Xianleju.

Even, it is not ruled out that the other party is the owner of Xianleju.

Gu Jiao swishly wrote, "Who is the owner of Xianleju?"

"Ask the master?" Mo Qianxue approached Gu Jiao and looked at Gu Jiao with a half-smile, with a playful look in her eyes, but also a hint of vigilance, "Why are you asking about this?"

Gu Jiao wrote: "Curious, just ask, if it's inconvenient to say, forget it."

What is meant by retreating as advancing, that's all.

Mo Qianxue pouted and said dullly, "Actually, I don't know either. I've only met the inhabitant twice, or through the screen. I don't even know what the inhabitant looks like."

The dignified oiran did not even know the true face of the owner of Mount Lu, and the other party hid it too deeply.

Gu Jiao thought of what Mo Qianxue said when he taught the woman in yellow just now—for the sake of the master, I will spare you once!

She wrote: "What is the relationship between Hua Xiyao and the owner?"

"You still remember the name of that little bitch!" Mo Qianxue was blown away!

Gu Jiao: ... um, how can she take it?

Mo Qianxue said angrily, "Did you like that little bitch?"

Gu Jiao wrote full of desire to survive: She is so ugly, it's hard to forget her.

Seeing that Gu Jiao said she was ugly, Mo Qianxue burst out laughing, her anger disappeared instantly, she said proudly, "She doesn't have a great relationship with the owner, but she served by the owner for a few days. That's all. The owner saw that she had some good looks, so he asked me to train her. Don't worry, she won't dare to pester you in the future."

Gu Jiao nodded.

She had one last question: "Is the host a man or a woman?"

Mo Qianxue said, "Of course the owner of Xianleju is a woman, could it be you stinky men? I won't work for a stinky man!"

Woman, work hard.

Gu Jiao remembered these two important clues.

Mo Qianxue couldn't ask more information here, Gu Jiao excused it was late and got up and left.

Mo Qianxue pouted, and her eyes were full of unfinished thoughts, but she probably had other arrangements at night, so she did not keep Gu Jiao.

She escorted Gu Jiao downstairs.

Walking to the corner of the stairs, she suddenly pulled Gu Jiao's sleeve: "Anyway, tell me what your surname is."

Gu Jiao wrote: "Gu."

"Young Master Gu." Mo Qianxue murmured this address and smiled, "Not bad."

When she and Gu Jiao were passing by the stairs on the second floor, they met Hua Xiyao by accident.

Hua Xiyao was obviously a little jealous of Mo Qianxue, lowered her head, stepped aside, and bowed slightly.

Mo Qianxue snorted coldly, and without giving her a straight eye, sent Gu Jiao downstairs.

Hua Xiyao touched her still aching face, resentment in her eyes: "Mo Qianxue, wait and see, you won't be so lucky all the time!"

The little maid stepped forward and said to Hua Xiyao, "Miss Hua, the news has just arrived from the shadow guard, and the host is back."

Hua Xiyao's eyes lit up: "I'll pick up the host!"

The little maid said embarrassingly, "No, the Shadow Guard said, let Miss Qianxue pick it up."

Hua Xiyao clenched her fingers and looked at Mo Qianxue smilingly saying goodbye to Gu Jiao at the entrance of Xianleju, she stomped her foot in anger!

Mo Qianxue, Mo Qianxue, anything good is Mo Qianxue!

-

After Gu Jiao came out of Xianleju, she went straight back to Bishui Hutong.

It was getting late at this time, all the doors in the hutong were closed, lanterns were hung under the porch, and the faint candlelight illuminated the long trail in dim yellow.

When Gu Jiao came to the door of the house, she found a small group of people sitting pitifully on the threshold, her small body that could feel even without speaking was enveloped by a huge grievance.

Gu Jiao stepped forward and said softly, "Clear space?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Xiao Jingkong suddenly raised his head and ran towards Gu Jiao: "Jiaojiao!"

Gu Jiao bent down so that the little guy could plunge into her arms.

Xiao Jingkong threw herself into her arms and grabbed her by the front of her clothes, pouting her lips in grievance: "Jiaojiao..."

"What's wrong?" Gu Jiao hugged the little guy.

Xiao Jingkong's small mouth deflated: "Auntie doesn't like me anymore."

Gu Jiao asked amusingly, "Why doesn't my aunt like you anymore? Who did you listen to?"

Xiao Jingkong hummed, "Brother-in-law."

Gu Jiao said, "He said my aunt doesn't like you anymore?"

Xiao Qingkong shook his head.

Gu Jiao said again: "Then how do you know that aunt doesn't like you?"

Xiao Jingkong said aggrievedly: "My aunt gave my brother-in-law a lot of things, but not so much for me. Am I still my aunt's favorite little man?"

He emphasized the little man because he took Gu Jiao out. In his heart, auntie can treat Jiao Jiao the best, and he is not jealous of Jiao Jiao.

Gu Jiao smiled: "But when my aunt gave you something, my brother-in-law didn't either."

Xiao Jingkong thought about it seriously, and thought it was right.

So the aunt did not deliberately give more things to the brother-in-law, but just made up the one-time payment that was not given before?

Thinking of this, his heart was balanced.

But he still wanted to take this opportunity to ask for a kiss. He lowered his head: "But I'm still hurt a little bit."

Where did such an adult learn from?

The newly learned vocabulary came out of his mouth again, making Gu Jiao feel novel and cute.

Gu Jiao planted a kiss for him.

Xiao Qingkong was completely satisfied. He covered his face and quickly ran back to the house to find the scarf.

Gu Jiao walked through the front yard and entered the main room. She was about to go back to the West Room, but when she looked up, she saw that the door of the study was open, and an oil lamp was lit inside. Xiao Liulang was studying hard under the oil lamp.

The door of the study is usually not so open, especially when Xiao Liulang is reading.

At this time, from the door frame to the threshold, every inch of the place seemed to silently reveal an aura of "come in, come in quickly".

Gu Jiao really stepped into the house.

The study is as neat and tidy as ever, and facing the door is Xiao Liulang's desk, which is often used because of the small clearance, and half of the space above is occupied by books and ink, paper, ink, and ink in the small clearance.

On the other half of the site belonging to Xiao Liulang, an exquisite wooden brocade box was placed in the most conspicuous position.

Xiao Liulang's chair was facing the door, he didn't look up, as if he was immersed in the sea of ​​arithmetic.

Since he got the Yan Kingdom high math book, he has taken time to study and research every night. Gu Jiao is not surprised.

Still weird.

The atmosphere is a little weird.

The chair opposite him was also set up.

As if waiting for someone to sit down.

Gu Jiao came to the chair opposite the desk and sat down: "I heard that you entered the palace today?"

Xiao Liulang said solemnly: "Well, I went to see my aunt."

The box was also placed just right, and Gu Jiao could reach it with her hand. She ordered the box: "Is this from my aunt?"

"Yeah." Xiao Liulang nodded solemnly.

You can have a look.

His eyes said silently.

This time, it's not about showing off, it's about sharing, sharing your own gains and pleasures.

He wanted to do this on the way back. He didn't know what kind of emotion it was, but he just... wanted to tell her about it.

"I'll see," she said.

Xiao Liulang nodded solemnly.

Gu Jiao opened the box.

She looked at the things in the brocade box, but Xiao Liulang was looking at her.

This reminded him of when he was a child, when his article was praised by the master, he would go to the Princess Mansion with the article and couldn't wait to tell Princess Xinyang.

When Princess Xinyang looked at his article and the Master's comments, he would be both excited and nervous.

Like now.

Is it because of what?

care?

"It's more than I thought." Gu Jiao thought that her aunt really just made up for the gifts she didn't give before, but unexpectedly there were many more. No wonder Xiao Jingkong was so jealous.

But there are other reasons for this.

My aunt had a misunderstanding with him.

Now it seems that the misunderstanding has been resolved.

Gu Jiao bent the corners of her lips, looked at him and said, "Auntie loves you very much."

Xiao Liulang pressed down the corners of his lips, and said lightly, "Give it to you."

"Which one is for me?" Gu Jiao asked while looking at a box of valuables.

"All for you." Xiao Liulang said.

Gu Jiao's eyes widened: "So many?"

Xiao Liulang saw the surprise in her eyes, and the corner of his lips twitched again. He took out a money bag from his arms and handed it to her: "And this month's household."

Wow, she's getting rich!

Gu Jiao blinked, looked at the money bag, and then looked at the items in the box, she couldn't believe it for a while.

Xiao Liulang took a deep look at her, the small face with his mouth open and confused, hooked his eyes and attracted him to approach her involuntarily.

He looked at the cheeks that were slowly enlarging in front of his eyes, and his heart thumped.

The world seemed to be silent, only the sound of my heart beating drums remained.

"Sister! You are here!"

Gu Xiaoshun suddenly ran in.

Mainly because the door was open, he didn't expect Xiao Liulang to steal his sister at this time.

Of course, he came fast enough, Xiao Liulang didn't come in person, he sat back on the chair and opened a distance of 108,000 miles from Gu Jiao!

Gu Xiaoshun scratched his head: I seem to have seen something, but I don't seem to have seen anything!

do not care!

business matters!

"Brother-in-law." He greeted Xiao Liulang.

Xiao Liulang's eyes were filled with resentment.

Gu Xiaoshun: "..."

Gu Xiaoshun came to Gu Jiao to help him repair the knife. He had a small knife with a handle that came off, and he couldn't pick it up by himself.

"Okay, I'll go take a look." Gu Jiao nodded, put the household into the brocade box, and walked out of the study with Gu Xiaoshun holding the brocade box.

Xiao Liulang leaned back in the chair feebly.

He was a little lost.

But I don't know what I'm missing.

At night, when the whole family fell asleep, Xiao Liulang rubbed his sore eyes, closed the book, and put it back on the bookshelf, planning to rest.

When he came to the main room, he found a figure enjoying the coolness on the newly built swing in the front yard.

Gu Jiao's own mosquito coils were smoked on the edge of the swing frame.

Seeing Xiao Liulang coming out, the little figure on the swing suddenly stopped, stepped off the swing, and came to Xiao Liulang: "Are you done?"

Xiao Liulang looked at her in astonishment: "You haven't slept yet?" After a pause, he asked, "Wait for me?"

"Yeah." Gu Jiao nodded and looked at him with wide eyes as clear as water.

He has seen how cold these eyes are towards others, but at this time they are well-behaved and clear. The candlelight under the corridor is reflected in her pupils, and his dazed appearance is also reflected in her pupils.

"You..." He opened his mouth, the distance between the two was a bit close, and his heart beat violently again.

Gu Jiao stood on tiptoe.

Got taller.

You have to stand on tiptoe to get there.

Xiao Liulang looked at her face that was suddenly approaching him, his eyes moved, a heart almost jumped out of his chest, he covered his heart and tried to calm down: "You..."

Gu Jiao maintained her tiptoe posture and looked at him obediently: "Didn't you just think about it?"

Think... what?

Xiao Liulang's blood rushed to the top of his head.

She's not really a fool, how could she not understand what she's saying?

She found out... how did she find out? He also acted so casually, so Gu Xiaoshun didn't notice anything strange.

Gu Jiao tilted her head: "If you don't want it, I'll go."

As she spoke, she put down her tiptoes and turned back to her east room.

But before taking a step, Xiao Liulang grabbed his wrist.

His palms were hot, and he brought her to him with undeniable strength, clasping her wrist with one hand and wrapping her slender and soft waist with the other.

He was out of breath.

He raised his hand to cover her eyes and lowered his head gently.

The moonlight is shy, drunk and gentle.

When the sky was dawn, Xiao Jingkong woke up as usual, the first thing he did was to remove the veil wrapped around his face and head, and then went to the bronze mirror to look at his little face that actually had nothing: "I My dear has sprouted!"

He ran out, came to the backyard, scooped up half a scoop of water on the stone bench, grabbed a few drops of water with his fingers and sprinkled it lightly on his little face.

"Wash your face, clear space?" Mommy Fang asked with a smile.

Xiao Jingkong corrected: "I'm not washing my face, I'm watering my kiss!"

The housemammy laughed.

Xiao Liulang came out of the stove with a basin of water in his hand. He placed the basin on the stone table, grabbed the water and splashed it on his face, not even letting go of his mouth.

Xiao Jingkong hummed, "You also wash your face?"

Xiao Liulang raised his eyebrows and said, "No, I'll water it."

Xiao Jingkong: "...!!"

Today is another day when the bad brother-in-law owes 23333
