Chapter 198 (2/2)
”Don't be nervous. I just came to have a look.”
Gu Jiu looks around, and the decoration of the shop is also very distinctive. The bead flowers and various trinkets placed at the door can attract the young girls and daughter-in-law at a glance.
Two Zhuang said: ”girl, go to the backyard and make tea for you.”
Gu Jiu nodded and asked, ”is business OK?”
”Not bad. This is a running account. Would you like to have a look at it, girl Er Zhuang took out his account book.
Gu Jiu took over the account book and flipped through it at will. The account is very clear, every expense, every income, is recorded in it.
She nods secretly, er Zhuang is still very down-to-earth.
When a guest comes to visit, er Zhuang lets the waiter serve him.
Jumeizhai has invited two assistants, so that Er Zhuang can spare time and keep an eye on the production situation.
Gu Jiu follows Er Zhuang to the backyard.
The backyard is not big, but the environment is quiet.
In such weather, a reclining chair is put under the eaves, and a leaf fan is held in hand to sit on the chair. Listening to the cicadas' chirp, the long day has passed.
Two Zhuang led Gu Jiu several people to take a seat in the wing room, and hurried to make tea.
Green bamboo stopped him, ”you tell me the place, I'll go. I brought tea. ”
With a simple smile, er Zhuang pointed to the kitchen and said, ”it's over there.”
Gu Jiu asked Er Zhuang, ”is the cloth shop next door? When I came just now, I passed by the next door and saw that the business was good. ”
Er Zhuang brought the dim sum again. ”Miss, try the dim sum made by the neighbors. It tastes good. Next door is indeed a cloth shop. The shopkeeper's surname is Hu, but it's not clear what the owner's surname is. It is said that the owner is ill and is recuperating in the backyard of Buzhuang
Gu Jiu picked up a snack and tasted it. There is no delicacy in the snacks made in the mansion, and the taste is quite good.She said casually: ”their host is ill, and they are neighbors. If you can help, you should be good neighbors.”
”What the girl said is that I have a good relationship with manager Hu. Usually they help each other. ”
Qingzhu made a pot of tea and sent it to Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu ate a snack and drank tea, and felt that his stomach was at least five times full.
She said to ER Zhuang, ”go and be busy. You don't have to watch here. I'll leave in a moment
Er Zhuang nodded, ”I'd like to show you all the account books of the past few months. I heard that the girl is very quick at accounting. ”
Gu Jiu laughed, ”if you are not afraid that I am tired, just send the account book.”
Er Zhuang grinned, ”I'm not tired. Small business, limited account books. ”
Two Zhuang out of the wing room, not a moment later with a pile of accounts to Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu also does not affectation, pick up abacus to settle accounts. Er Zhuang went to the front shop to greet the guests.
Er Zhuang's account is very clear, do not waste what strength, Gu Jiu on a pile of books to calculate clearly.
She said: ”jumeizhai is busy in business, and the two Zhuang people are also hard-working. I'm going to find a chance to raise the salary of Er Zhuang. ”
Green plum nods, ”still the girl thinks thoughtful.”
It's not early. Gu Jiu plans to leave for home.
Back at the shop, he said with ER Zhuang. Gu Jiu's one foot has already crossed the threshold, but he stops abruptly.
She even saw Xie Mao in the ten mile alley.
Xie Mao with a group of east palace guards, ferocious to the next door cloth shop, a wave of his hand, ”search for me.”
The east palace guard rushed into the cloth shop like a wolf.
Man and manager Hu tried to stop him, but they were knocked down by the guards. I could only watch the guards rush into the backyard.
Xie Mao has a sinister smile on his mouth.
Xiuyiwei and the Yamen of the capital city didn't know Fang Shaojian's background, so they couldn't find anyone.
However, he is different. He has many ways to pry Fang Shao Jian's old man out of the mouth of some people.
Knowing that Fang Shaojian might be hiding in this humble little cloth shop, Xie Mao couldn't help it. He rushed over with people, afraid that Fang Shaojian would run away.
His face is full of contentment. If he catches Fang Shaojian, he will surely kill the dead eunuch himself.
He returned the humiliation that Fang Shao Jian had inflicted on him.
Gu Jiu quickly returned to jumeizhai.
There are guests in the shop, not a place to talk.
So she went back to the backyard.
She asked Er Zhuang, ”how could Xie Mao do this again? What is the origin of the cloth shop next door. ”
er Zhuang was also confused and said,” it is the first time for me to see Mr. Xie in Shili Hutong. As for the cloth shop next door, it is only a very ordinary cloth shop. ”
Ordinary fart.
Xie Maodu personally brought people over. The cloth shop next door is obviously not an ordinary cloth shop.
That is to say, er Zhuang did not see through.
Bang Bang Bang Bang
In the backyard of the cloth shop next door, there was a sound of utensils falling on the ground. The guards were swearing and murderous, which made people scared.
At the moment of Gu Jiu's hesitation, a cry of surprise came from the cloth shop next door.
”There are assassins! Be careful, everyone... ”
When Xiaocui heard the murder, she screamed out.
Gu Jiu's eyes were sharp, and he made a decision. He ordered Er Zhuang: ”send someone to inform the nearest Yamen and ask Yamen to send someone over. Whether it's xiuyiwei or the government of the capital, the sooner the better. ”
”Yes, little one.”
The next door is killing people. Obviously, it can't be good.
Gu Jiu is afraid of Xie Mao outside. Although she is dressed in men's clothes, Xie Mao can definitely recognize her.
In case Xie Mao finds out that she sneaks out of the mansion, I don't know how much trouble Xie Mao will make.
Now, Gu Jiu can't go out.
But there is no guarantee of safety.
I can only hope that the Yamen can come as soon as possible to stop this sudden chaos.
”Ah
Xiaocui points to the wall, and a man turns over from the wall.
”Fang Shao Jian!”
Gu Jiu recognized the man who turned over the wall.
Fang Shaojian's face is pale. He also recognizes Gu Jiu. He is stunned. It seems that Gu Jiu will appear in the backyard of jumeizhai.
Then Fang Shaojian grinned at Gu Jiu, looking very happy.
Gu Jiu gritted his teeth, ”Wang Yi, you...”
Fang Shaojian has already jumped into the courtyard and landed successfully.
Wang Yi took up his sleeve and waited for Gu Jiu to order him to throw Fang Shaojian out.
Fang Shaojian covered his abdomen. His abdomen was injured and blood flowed out.
He took the lead in saying, ”I didn't expect to see Miss Gu here. I'm glad to meet you. Xie Mao outside, if I see you and I are talking here, how would he guess the relationship between us? Will you think that you are on behalf of Prince Ning's house to meet us here.”Nonsense!”
Xiaocui is excited. It's a total set-up.
Fang Shaojian ignores Xiaocui. He is staring at Gu Jiu all the time.
Gu Jiu's face was gloomy, ”Fang Shaojian is threatening me?”
”No. We just remind Miss Gu not to do things that are harmful to others and not beneficial to yourself. It's not good for everyone. ”
Gu Jiu sneered, ”you are the wanted criminal in the whole city. Do you believe that I shout a voice, and Xie Mao has to thank me.”
Fang Shaojian laughs. ”Miss Gu, are you sure Xie Mao will thank you instead of killing you?”
Gu Jiu narrowed her eyes, and she wanted to cheat Fang Shao Jian, so that she could hear more truth from his mouth.
Fang Shaojian is on the road.
His wound hurt and he leaned against the post.
He held out a hand and pointed to the next door. ”Do you hear anything? They're here to kill me. You're with me, and they'll kill you. ”
Gu Jiu's face was livid, ”then you should get out of here.”
Fang Shaojian laughed, ”I can't get out. If you want to get out of here, we'll be gone. But Miss Gu, don't worry. You saved me this time. As long as I don't die, I will pay back in the future. ”
”You can't protect yourself. Can you repay me?”
Fang Shaojian raised his eyebrows and laughed, ”some people want me to die, but more people want me to live. Do you hear the sound from the next room? It's hitting hard. I didn't call those people to protect themselves. They followed Xie Mao to find them, and then they fought on both sides. It's just a pity that this cloth shop will not be able to do business in the future. ”
There was movement at the top of the wall, and someone turned it over.
