Chapter 1376 Beware
Ji was speechless. She pointed at her face and said to Aunt Tao: "You are the grandma of the Gu family, so you have to remind her. She can't be blind and don't know how ugly she is, and you don't know either." ah."
With a suitable smile on her face, Aunt Tao replied: "Don't worry, Mrs. Xie, my girl and my uncle have a very good relationship."
Ji was shocked and felt that the Gu family were all fools and had been deceived by Qin Ruofan!
Gu Jinli was too lazy to talk nonsense with Ji, so he moved a box to the low table, opened the box, and handed a sewing basket to Ji: "I have nothing to do when I'm free, help me make some masks and hand guards, and go further northwest." It will get colder, so masks and hand guards will come in handy."
Mrs. Ji got angry: "I'm here as a guest, why do you want me to work? I'm not your servant!"
She has always been pampered. She only made some underwear for Xie Cheng when she was newly married, but she didn't do it well and pricked her hand. Xie Cheng didn't let her do it when he saw it.
"Just because I am your savior." Gu Jinli glanced at her and grinned at her: "As your savior, it's good that I didn't ask you to kneel down and kowtow to say thank you, so I asked you to help me with something. Aren’t you happy with the mask and hand guards? Hurry up and do it. If you don’t do it, kneel down and kowtow to say thank you!”
"You, you, shrew!" Mrs. Ji cried angrily, but she was a shameless person. She felt that she was older than Gu Jinli and had a better background than Gu Jinli. She refused to kneel and kowtow to Gu Jinli, a daughter of a disaster victim who had fled famine, so she could only Crying and making a mask at the same time.
Gu Jinli also urged her: "Hurry up, why are you moving so slowly? Have you not eaten or are you terminally ill?"
Ji was so angry that she yelled, "Why bother? The road is uneven. If you put in the needle too fast, you will prick your hand."
In fact, the Gu family's carriage is very well made. It runs much more smoothly than her family's carriage and is warmer. I wonder how the Gu family makes their carriage?
But she wouldn't ask Gu Jinli. It would be embarrassing if she did.
But Gu Jinli was like a prison guard, constantly urging her to work. She never stopped for a day. She could only stop and rest after entering the post station in Luchang County.
Xie Cheng came to pick her up, and she cried when she saw Xie Cheng.
Xie Cheng felt distressed and asked hurriedly: "Why are you crying? Don't cry. Don't cry. Tell me how you have been wronged."
"Is it useful to tell you? Can you still go and beat Mrs. Gu?" Ji Zhenniang stretched out her hands to show him: "Look, what kind of pricks are there on my hands? Mrs. Gu has always asked me to do needlework. I haven’t done it in years.”
Xie Cheng looked at her hand and felt distressed. He held her hand and said, "It's okay. I'll give you some medicine for the wound when you get back. You'll be fine soon."
Ji was so angry that she was shaking: "I've been beaten into a sieve and you still say it's okay!"
Gu Jinli almost died laughing when he heard this in the carriage. Xie Cheng still hasn't learned how to get along with Mrs. Ji. He shouldn't talk like this. He should follow Mrs. Ji's words and say: It's really serious. I'll take you back right away and give you a lesson. Knife wound medicine.
"Hey, didn't you say you want to take these masks back to Xie Baihu for use? Take them." Gu Jinli handed her the four masks made by Ji, and then said with disgust: "It took a long time to sew four masks. You're such a waste, why do you still have the nerve to cry? Are you actually acting like a spoiled child?"
What she said was telling Xie Cheng that Mr. Ji had him in her heart.
After hearing this, Xie Cheng was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Ji: "Zhenniang, did you make these masks for me? They are really amazing. They are well done. I like them very much."
In fact, the work was very poor, the kind that even Mr. Ji disliked. However, Mr. Ji was very proud of being praised and said: "I didn't make it for you, so I can't take it easy, Gu Xiaoyu."
Gu Xiaoyu?
This is Gu's nickname.
It's true that after only being with Gu for a long time, he called her by her nickname, which shows that Gu is a powerful person.
"Thank you for taking care of Zhenniang, brother and sister." Xie Cheng glanced at Gu Jinli gratefully, then hurriedly turned to look at Ji, suppressing the nausea in his heart.
Mrs. Gu is so ugly, and Sanlang is so miserable.
Xie Cheng didn't stay long. After thanking Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang, he took Ji into the inn and went to their room to rest.
But before leaving, Gu Jinli called to Ji and reminded her: "Remember what I told you, stay away from that person."
The one she was talking about was Mr. Cen.
Ji snorted, ignored Gu Jinli, and followed Xie Cheng away.
However, Xie Cheng took it seriously. After returning, he told all his servants to stop Cen from using Sister Tang to get close to Zhenniang.
He then handed over to Nanny Xie and Xie Huaihua: "Take good care of Madam and don't let her get hurt. If you can't bear it, go to me and I will come right away."
After thinking about it, he added: "If I'm not here, you go to Mrs. Qin for help. Mrs. Qin is a capable person and can suppress her. If Mrs. Qin is not here either, you go to Mrs. Niu for help."
Although Mr. Kuang likes to take advantage, he is a righteous man and will definitely help Zhen Niang when he sees her in trouble.
Mother Xie and her daughter hurriedly responded: "Yes, old slave/slave, I obey."
Xie Cheng called Manager Xie again and handed him the antidote prescription written by Doctor Dai: "Uncle Xie, go to the drug store to get Madam's medicine. Grab a few more copies, so as not to be unable to buy them after eating on the way."
He also handed over the metabolism manager: "Bring more money to buy some coarse grains, medicinal materials, charcoal fire, cold protection and other items."
Sanlang told him that after leaving He'an Prefecture and going to Dachi Road, the soldiers from all the southern prefectures would gather together. By then, everyone would be buying supplies that even money could not buy. If the county buys it, buy more.
Xie Cheng was very grateful, so he asked Manager Xie to take a dozen servants to buy things immediately.
As for Aunt Ji and the others, they asked their trusted flag leader to send them to the inn, leaving two servants to watch and wait for the Ji family to pick them up.
He also left a letter to two servants. The letter was a warning to the Ji family. If he didn’t severely punish Aunt Ji, Ji’s concubines, and those nonsense-talking women of the Ji family, don’t blame him for being ruthless!
Niu Dabao, Liu Baihu, Shi Baihu, and Lu Chong also took people to the county town to purchase supplies.
Cao Baihu in Luchang County has a good location and has already bought things. He doesn't have to worry about these things. He can go home to stay for one night and have a meal with his family.
Qin Sanlang didn't have to worry about this. They asked Uncle Mu Tong to lead the way first. Uncle Mu Tong had already asked people to buy a lot of things at low prices. Feng Jin had already brought the empty mule cart into the city. He only needed to load the things. You can come back when you are full.
Erqing, Sanqing, and Xiaoji quickly cleaned the inn room, replaced all the mats, blankets, quilts, mosquito nets, etc., and put on the blankets and quilts that Gu Jinli was used to, so that Gu Jinli could live in a clean place. Be more comfortable.
Gu Jinli waited for Aunt Xiong to buy the bathtub and took a comfortable bath. After feeling comfortable all over, he urged Qin Sanlang to take a bath: "I bought hot water, go take a bath quickly."
All officials and soldiers can stay in the inn for free, but there are too many people now. If you don't pay, just wait. No one will care about you until you are frozen into ice.
