The Rebirth of Space: the Lucky Girl From a Farm Family

Chapter 269 Communication

"Princess, the food is ready." Ling Dong came in and reported.

Mrs. Qian said: "It's getting late, Yanran goes to eat quickly. I'm going back. Where are you Yingzi? Are you going back or staying?"

Mrs. Ping looked at the hourglass and said, "It's already time. It's getting late, so I'm going back."

Gu Huayu said to Lu Ziqin: "Brother Ziqin, please go back with Mrs. Qian and see Aunt Ping off by the way."

 Brother Ziqin? Lu Ziqin looked at Gu Huayu, the little guy shouldn't change his face too quickly.

He originally wanted to leave later, but since the little guy had spoken, he fulfilled the little guy's wish, leaned forward and said, "Okay! Xiaoyu, please have something to eat and rest early."

 After speaking, Lu Ziqin raised his eyebrows at Gu Huayu.

Gu Huayu sent a few people to the door of the house, watched the carriage and horses go away, and then turned around and walked into the house.

Gu Huayu returned to her small courtyard after dinner and saw a few more maids in the yard. Asked: "What's going on?"

Ling Dong bent her knees and explained: "Back to the princess, they were sent by Shi Niang to serve the princess. Shi Niang said that from now on, the princess must take people with her wherever she goes."

 “Today was just an accident…”

“The princess’s accident alarmed people in several houses!”

When Gu Huayu heard the words, she turned back to look at the courtyard door and saw Shi Niang leaning against the door frame with her arms folded in front of her chest.

Gu Huayu knew that today's incident had offended Shi Niang, so she didn't dare to talk back to her. She asked with a smile: "Shi Niang is here, why didn't I see you just now?"

A trace of panic flashed across Shi Niang's eyes, and she pretended to be calm and said with a straight face: "Don't interrupt, they will serve the princess from now on. The princess needs to take them with her when she goes out."

Gu Huayu is used to being alone and doesn't like to be followed by maids and women who are shouting at each other. She wanted to refuse, but seeing Shi Niang's firmness, she had no choice but to nod in agreement, thinking about looking for an opportunity to send him away later.

Seeing that Gu Huayu agreed happily, Shi Niang's face softened a lot. Said: "It's getting late, let's take a rest early."

After Gu Huayu waited for Shi Niang to leave, she said to Lonicera: "Take them down to rest."

The maid bent her knees and said: "Shi Niang ordered that the servant must serve the princess."

Gu Huayu went crazy and said, "I am the master."

Several maids knelt down in unison, "The princess has mercy on you, please accept some slaves. Shi Niang has said that if the slaves don't serve the master well, Shi Niang will beat them up."

Gu Huayu said to Lonicera: "Go and call the Stinky Foot Immortal over."

"No need to call, I'm here." Shi Niang said standing at the door.

She knew that this girl was so happy that she must be moved. As expected, this happened.

Gu Huayu looked at Shi Niang and said: "I don't want people to wait close to me. Hurry up and ask them to retreat. Immortal Stinky Feet, allowing two people to follow you when you go out is my biggest concession. Don't challenge my bottom line."

　　"Isn't it good to take care of someone? You need to be cured of your stinky problem."

"Don't tell me this. Grandma needs her own space. She doesn't like people hanging around her when she returns to her own room. Where did they come from? Where do you send them?" Gu Hua said in a hurried tone.

"You are a dignified princess, what do you mean if you don't have someone to serve you?" Shi Niang argued with reason.

Gu Huayu retorted: "A noble princess can't make herself comfortable as she pleases. What do I want from this **** princess?"

 “You are the princess, watch your words!”

Gu Huayu clasped her hands on her chest and said nonchalantly: "I grew up in the mountains, so I am vulgar. You like people to serve you and take them all away, but I don't want them. The door is over there, so walk slowly and don't send them away." "

 After saying that, Gu Huayu walked up to the house.

Shi Niang said to Gu Huayu's back, "You little girl, you must keep your word. You must take two people with you when you go out."

The corners of Gu Huayu's mouth raised, and she immediately said with a straight face: "I know, teach them the rules, and when they come to me, they have to obey my orders. If you dare to contradict me again, I will send them out immediately."

Shi Niang said angrily: "I know. Liandong, you take them down. They are responsible for the princess's travels. You arrange a shift for them."

 Gu Huayu heard the footsteps and left the small courtyard, snorted and said: "Stinky feet fairy, housekeeper."

Gu Huayu leaned back on the soft couch, thinking about Lu Ziqin's words, and wondering whether to go to Panyuan tomorrow.

 If King Qi really has his thoughts on her, she would not be able to avoid him because of King Qi's character.

Since you can’t avoid it, face it calmly, take advantage of it as you see it, and remain unchanged in the face of all changes. By the way, let's settle the score between him and Lu Ziqin.

 Gu Huayu made up her mind and leaned on the soft couch to relax, going through today's events in her mind.

Although he was annoyed by Lu Ziqin's inexplicable mood before, his temper brought the two of them closer. Although the movement is a bit loud, the result is good.

Thinking of this, Gu Huayu suddenly thought of Lu Ziqin's hands at the wine lees meatball stall.

Sitting up straight, Gu Huayu took off Qingfeng and put it upright on the table. She asked in a deep voice, "What did you do to Ziqin's hand before?"

 Qingfeng lay down on the table pretending to be dead.

Gu Huayu stretched out her hand to straighten him up, "Stand still."

 Green Wind stood erect and motionless.

Gu Huayu said: "What's the matter if you fall? Do you dare to do it or not? What kind of a good man is that? Did you do Ziqin's hand? You did it. Turn around for me."

 Qingfeng turned around on the table.

 Hehe, it is indeed this guy who is causing trouble!

Gu Huayu said with a straight face: "Listen to me, Ziqin is the person I care about, and I don't allow you to attack him, do you understand? I understand, turn around."

  Qingfeng lay down directly.

 Gu Huayu became angry and bared her teeth at Qingfeng: "Stand still, I can't control you anymore? Believe it or not, I will throw you into the toilet."

Qingfeng stood motionless on the table, looking majestic and unyielding, not paying attention to Gu Huayu's words.

Gu Huayu tapped the table with her fingers and said in a lower voice: "Ziqin made me angry today. You stand up for me. I know you are doing it for my own good."

Qingfeng moved closer to Gu Huayu and rubbed her fingers.

 Gu Huayu's heart softened even more, and she reached out and touched it, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled at you just now. I apologize to you."

 Qingfeng rubbed Gu Huayu's fingers again.

Gu Huayu looked at Qingfeng and said: "Ziqin has no ill intentions towards me, he will not hurt me.

 We have a dispute because we look at the problem from different angles and do not reach a consensus, leading to misunderstandings. Disputes are just a way for two people to communicate, and it does not mean that he will hurt me.

 He is the person I care about, you can't attack him, do you understand? "

Qingfeng straightened up and spun around on the table.

 “Be good!” Gu Huayu put Qingfeng back on her index finger. "It's getting late, let's take a rest."

Perhaps she slept for a long time in the afternoon, but Gu Huayu didn't feel sleepy. Thinking of going to Panyuan to listen to a play tomorrow, Gu Huayu closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.

 The next day, Gu Huayu got up at 00:00, and just after washing up, Liandong came in and said, "Miss, Shi Niang wants to see you."

Gu Huayu said in surprise: "What is she doing here so early in the morning?"

 Landong shook his head, "I don't know."

 “Bring her in.”

Lonicera retreated, and after a while, Shi Niang came in and bowed her knees to Gu Huayu.

Gu Huayu looked at Shi Niang and asked, "Is something wrong?"

Shi Niang leaned forward and said, "Come down and ask the princess for a few days' leave."

Gu Huayu blurted out and asked: "How many days are you going to take leave? How many days? What are you going to do?"

Shi Niang said: "On the seventh day, two days later it will be the birthday of one of my benefactors. I want to perform rituals for her in the temple for a few days."

Gu Huayu asked: "Your benefactor is deceased?"

Shi Niang leaned forward and said, "Back to the princess, my benefactor has been gone for many years."

Gu Huayu nodded, "Go ahead. Go to the accountant's office to pay as much money as you need. The more money you need, the more places you need money. Leave the affairs of the house to Wang Qin."

 “Thank you, Princess, I understand.”

 Gu Huayu sat at the dressing table, "comb my hair, I'm going out soon."

Shi Niang picked up the comb and combed Gu Huayu's hair while asking: "Where do you want to go, Princess? What kind of headgear do you want to wear?"

Gu Huayu said casually: "I'm going to Panyuan to watch a play. I'll just put my hair in a normal bun and wear a normal headdress."

Shi Niang paused her hand and asked, "Pan Yuan? When did the princess book Pan Yuan's seat?"

Gu Huayu said: "I didn't make the decision, it was King Qi who decided to take the throne because of his love."

Shi Niang stopped combing her hair and looked at the mirror. Gu Huayu asked, "When did the princess become acquainted with the King of Qi? The King of Qi also invited the princess to watch a play in Pan Yuan?"

Gu Huayu looked at Shi Niang and asked: "Do you know King Qi? Also know Pan Yuan? You are very familiar with the capital!"

Facing Gu Huayu's questioning gaze, Shi Niang panicked. She lowered her head with evasive eyes and continued to comb Gu Huayu's hair, "I have been in the capital for more than two months, and I have heard a lot of anecdotes about the capital."

Gu Huayu revealed: "You have been in the house all day, and I have been walking around all day. I have only known Pan Yuan for these two days. Tell me, how did you know Pan Yuan?"

While combing Gu Huayu's hair, Shi Niang said, "Don't your second sister-in-law, Wang, like to go to the theater? In those days, she ran to the elephant shed all day long and listened to many interesting things in the theater troupe.

 Come back and show off to the servants in the house who is the best elephant actor, and who comes from the Panjiayuan house. I listened casually, and I knew that a Panjiayuan house was hard to find. "

Gu Huayu stared at Shi Niang in the mirror, thinking that Wang could indeed do such a thing, and believed her words.

Shi Niang took a string of beaded flowers from the sandalwood box and was about to put it on Gu Huayu, but Gu Huayu stopped her. "Change it. This one is too fancy and not suitable for me."

Shi Niang looked at Gu Huayu in the mirror, and then touched Gu Huayu's head with the pearl flower in her hand, "Is this fancy? Why do I think it's just right? The princess's skin is white, and this flower suits the princess very well." "

Shi Niang tried to persuade Gu Huayu.

Gu Huayu became anxious and took the beaded flower from Shi Niang's hand and put it back into the sandalwood box, "It's too fancy. If you don't need this, just tie it with a hair tie. I'm going to the theater today, and I'm just an audience member. It’s always best to be ordinary, no need to dress up.”

Shi Niang took out two hair ropes from the sandalwood box and tied them while asking: "Did the princess quarrel with Mr. Liu yesterday because of going to Pan Yuan to watch a play?"

Gu Huayu turned to look at Shi Niang.

Shi Niang hurriedly reminded: "Your hair is loose, sit still and don't move."

Gu Huayu's head was pulled painfully, so she quickly sat upright.

　　"Stinky Foot Immortal, you are so amazing! How do you know that this is the reason why Mr. Liu and I are at odds with each other?"

Shi Niang said: "I can tell! How could the princess accept King Qi's appointment?"

 Gu Huayu sighed and said: "I can't refuse the kindness!" As she said that, Gu Huayu briefly talked about the matter of the Immortal Tower.

After hearing this, Shi Niang said: "Since the princess has decided to go to the appointment, she should be more careful and protect herself. Remember to bring Begonia and Lihua."

“Who are Haitang and Lihua?”

Shi Niang said angrily: "Two of the maids you kicked out of the yard last night. These maids were given to me by Hua Da and asked me to teach them the rules.

 They have good skills. It is best to count crabapples and pear blossoms. "

Gu Huayu nodded, "I understand."

After Gu Huayu had finished packing, the concierge came to report, "Princess, Miss Shi San is here. Miss Shi said she was waiting for the Princess at the door and will not come in."

Gu Huayu nodded, "I understand, tell Miss Third that I will be there soon."

 The servants retreat.

Gu Huayu turned to Liao Dong and said, "You also come with me. You and Haitang Lihua sit in the same car."

Lonicera bowed her knees and said, "Okay, I understand."

Gu Huayu went to the door and saw Li Tao standing beside Shi Yamei's carriage, waving a folding fan, and asked, "When did you arrive?"

“We just arrived, are we ready to go? Shall we go?” Li Tao turned around and saw Gu Huayu, put away his folding fan and prepared to mount his horse.

Shi Yamei poked his head out and saw two cars behind Gu Huayu, and asked, "Xiaoyu is taking someone on a trip today?"

Gu Huayu spread her hands and said helplessly: "I can't help it. They won't let me go out alone."

"Okay, I'll sit in the same car with you." After saying that, Shi Yamei got out of the car.

Shi Yamei got into Gu Huayu's car, Li Tao followed on horseback, and the group headed towards Pan Yuan.

Shi Yamei had just sat firmly, staring at Gu Huayu with his eyes, and asked with a gossipy face: "I heard that Lu Liu was looking for you on the street for a long time yesterday? Where did you hide? Where did you find Lu Liu? your?"

After sending Aunt Ping away yesterday, Gu Huayu knew that she would inevitably be questioned by Shi Yamei today, so she was mentally prepared and asked calmly, "Why do you ask so clearly?"

"I'm curious! Yesterday I was talking to my elder sister-in-law at the Princess Mansion. I didn't leave the Princess Mansion until Youshi. When I returned to the mansion, I heard that the second sister-in-law said that people in the mansion were out to look for you.

 Xiaoyu, the only person on the street who can make Lu Liu get angry is you! In the whole capital, you are the best! It's a pity that I couldn't catch a glimpse of Lu Liu's anxious expression. If I had known better, I wouldn't have gone to the princess's house yesterday. I would have gone to the street to look for you. "

 Gu Huayu: “…”

"Xiaoyu, Lu Liu made you angry! Then why don't you come to me?" Li Tao asked.

Shi Yamei raised the curtains and glared at Li Tao, "Why did Xiaoyu come to you? Let you fight Lu Liu? If it's a fight, it's not like she can't win. She wants you to come and cause trouble."

“Where did you go yesterday? Where did Lu Liu finally find you?”

Seeing Shi Yamei's questioning, Gu Huayu said, "I didn't go anywhere, I just walked around. Is your wedding date set?"

Gu Huayu replied perfunctorily and immediately changed the topic.

Shi Yamei nodded and said, "It's settled. The wedding date is set for the sixteenth day of the winter lunar month."
