Chapter 14 Insufficient people

 Gu Xiyan didn't want to stay long. She got up and walked to the door, then looked back at Liu Junyan: "Whether my sister believes it or not, I have never thought about robbing my mother from my sister."

She calls Little Gu her mother now because Little Gu is indeed kind to her. But she knows that no matter how little Gu pities her, when there is a conflict of interest between her and Liu Junyan, Little Gu protects her.

It must be Liu Junyan.

"Anyway, I don't like my sister. Even if my sister gives me all the tribute fruits given by the royal family, I don't like it. Please don't bribe me with these small favors. Zijuan, see you off." Liu Junyan never looked at Gu Xiyan.<

/p>

Qiushi walked silently with Gu Xiyan for a while, "After all these years, isn't the girl sad?"

Why use your hot face to stick to the cold ass of the third girl?

Even the little Gu family who adopted the girl is not very sincere towards her.

The girl grew up in loveless discrimination. Even though the King of Qin broke off the engagement and Liu Chaoyan robbed her of the marriage, the people in the Hou family thought it was just ordinary.

"The third sister said she didn't like me, but she was one of the few people in the family who was gentle to me. I used to be so in need of love." That's why I would regard a little warmth as a life-saving rope.
When Gu Xiyan saw Qiushi suddenly wiping away her tears, she knew that this girl was feeling sorry for her.

"It's all over, why are you crying? People would think I was bullying you, girl." Gu Xiyan gently wiped away Qiushi's tears.

Qiushi hurriedly wiped away her tears, "I'm just too happy. The girl will get better and better in the future."

The girl is such a gentle and tenacious person. It was only when she lost herself in the past that she could not find her way. In the future, the girl will definitely not be lost again.

After dinner, the fourth girl Liu Huiyan and the fifth girl Liu Meiyan came to Xiyuan.

Liu Huiyan is fourteen this year and is the daughter of Aunt He of Wanqinghou. Liu Meiyan is half a year younger than Liu Huiyan and is the daughter of Aunt Zhao of Wanqinghou.

They usually disdain to deal with Gu Xiyan, but today they saw that Gu Xiyan received the tribute fruit given by the emperor, and they couldn't sit still. They just wanted to taste the tribute fruit given by the emperor.

Chunhua and Qiushi couldn't put on a good face when they saw these two common girls. They usually sneered at their own girls, but today they came over eagerly because they just wanted to taste the delicious tribute fruit?

Gu Xiyan was a generous person. She asked Shen's mother to wash some tribute fruits, and Liu Huiyan and Liu Meiyan started eating them without ceremony.

What made Qiushi most angry was that the two of them didn't even say "thank you" after eating, and planned to leave after eating.

Liu Huiyan was very indulgent on weekdays. After eating the fruit, she smiled and said, "Big sister can't finish it anyway. Why don't you let me and fifth sister help big sister and bring some tribute fruits back?"

Gu Xiyan smiled good-naturedly: "Fourth sister is polite."

She turned to Chunhua and said, "It's dark and the road is hard to walk. You go and see the two girls off."

Liu Meiyan saw that Gu Xiyan was not on the road, so she said sarcastically: "Big sister, please don't know what is good and what is wrong. My fourth sister and I are willing to help you. That is your blessing. If you miss this village, you will not have this store!"
Qiushi's face turned red with anger. How could there be such a shameless person in this world?

Gu Xiyan looked at Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan steadily, the smile on her face was still there, but her beautiful eyes were as calm as a thousand-year-old deep pool.

Under Gu Xiyan's gaze, Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan's arrogance gradually subsided, and they actually did not dare to look directly at Gu Xiyan.

"I am willing to give my two sisters a taste of the imperial fruit because I am in a good mood. If I am not willing to give my two sisters a try, will the two sisters have to go to the palace and file a lawsuit?" Gu Xiyan put the tea cup on the coffee table.

on, making a dull sound.

The whole living room suddenly became quiet, without any sound.

"Being a human being should not only have one's duty, but one should also be satisfied. What do the two sisters think?"

The lights flickered dimly, blurring Gu Xiyan's facial features, revealing a bit of coldness, which sent shivers down the spines of Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan.

They didn't dare to say another word. You pushed me, and I pushed you to leave Xiyuan.

As soon as these two people left, Qiushi said angrily: "Girls shouldn't feed dogs to those two!"

She was so angry that she had never seen such a shameless and vile person.

"Are unworthy people and trivial things worthy of your anger?" Gu Xiyan shook her head.

She just wanted to get rid of the two common girls quickly, so she took some tribute fruits to send them away.

She just got back the dowry her mother left her today. She has to go out of the house tomorrow and has to read the account books tonight. It looks like she will stay up late.

That night, Gu Xiyan was busy until midnight and still couldn't read the account books of several shops. Later, even Shen's mother couldn't stand it anymore and tried to persuade her, so she went to bed and fell asleep on the pillow.

Early the next morning, after Gu Xiyan went to Zaohui Hall to say hello, she returned to Xiyuan and started busy again.

At nearly noon, Gu Xiyan left the Hou Mansion.

In the Jin Dynasty, folk customs were open, men and women could sit at the same table, and women were not restricted from going out.

However, both Chunhua and Qiushi knew that their girl was beautiful, and that she had no status in the prince's mansion and had no carriage to ride on, so they specially put on a curtain hat for Gu Xiyan and went out.

Gu Xiyan hadn't left the Marquis Mansion for a long time, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances at the bustle on the street. Later, she remembered that she had something important to do today, so she hurried to Jixiang Tower.

The manager of Jixiang Tower, whose surname is Wu and named Tong, received news early in the morning that Gu Xiyan was coming, so he was waiting at the door to greet her early.

When Gu Xiyan saw that Wu Tong didn't say hello, she walked to the third floor without squinting.

She had told Wu Tong and Mo Laixu before that she didn't want outsiders to know that she was the boss behind Jixiang Tower, but Wu Tong refused to listen.

When Wu Tong followed up to the east wing on the third floor, she repeated it again, and Wu Tong responded again and again.

"Second Miss Su will be here later. Bring me to this wing, and you can go and do your work." Gu Xiyan ordered.

Wu Tong secretly marveled that the last time he saw Miss Gu was half a year ago. Although the girl was quite business-minded, she seemed lackluster.

When I saw him today, he felt as if he had been reborn. He looked very gentle, but his aura was so strong, which was strange.

Two quarters of an hour later, Su Mei came to the third floor and met Gu Xiyan.

Seeing how respectful Wu Tong was to Gu Xiyan, she secretly marveled: "Is this girl the mastermind behind Jixiang Tower?"
