There was a muffled thunder outside the house.

    Zhou Gaolang didn't speak. After Gu Jiusi asked, he was surprised by his boldness. No matter if Fan Xuan's health is good or not, at the beginning of this new dynasty, he must be in good health.

    He hurriedly left his seat, knelt down, and said in a hurry: "Xiaguan is talking nonsense, and I hope you forgive me."

    "What is this?" Zhou Gaolang smiled bitterly, turned his head to look at the sky outside, his expression flat, "Get up. It's going to rain outside, you go back first."

    Gu Jiusi hurriedly responded, kowtowed and saluted, then withdrew from Zhou Gaolang's room.

    What Zhou Gaolang said today, apart from Fan Xuan's body, was mostly what he expected. Ye stood on the corridor with his hands behind his back. Seeing him come out, Zhou Ye turned to look at him and said with a smile, "Your sister-in-law left you to eat, and I'll be here waiting for you to come out."

    Gu Jiusi heard this, looked up at the sky, shook his head and said, "No, when I came out today, I told Yuru that I was going home, so I said goodbye."

     Zhou Ye didn't feel embarrassed when he heard this, he just said: "You just arrived in Dongdu, you don't have many colleagues, take advantage of this opportunity to eat more with Yuru, I'm afraid that in the future Not so much time."

    Gu Jiusi smiled, shook his head and said, "I used to drink enough when I went out. In the future, if it is not necessary, I still have to go home for dinner."

    Speaking, Gu Jiusi seemed to think of Liu Yuru, and said a little embarrassedly: "Home has to be like a home, I want to have dinner with her every day."

    Zhou Ye nodded, sent Gu Jiusi out, smiled and said, "I want to learn more from you."

    Gu Jiusi didn't say much, he glanced at Zhou Ye.

      Therefore, Zhou Ye went out to do business when he was a teenager. Later, when he grew up, he also dealt with money and silk in Youzhou. For example, Zhou Ye first came to Yangzhou to purchase military supplies.

     

    If you want to stay with Gu Jiusi for dinner, you will always wait outside. Gu Jiusi wants to go back, and there is no sullenness. Taking Gu Jiusi to the door, Zhou Ye instructed: "I'm afraid there will be heavy rain soon, so be careful on the road."

    Gu Jiusi smiled: "Don't worry."

    After he finished speaking, he thought about it and said, "Brother Zhou, I'm really sorry today, I made you wait for me in vain."

    "It's okay," Zhou Ye said with a smile, "Wanzhi hasn't let anyone cook yet, so there's no waste."

    Gu Jiusi knew he was joking, smiled and saluted with Zhou Ye, then lowered the curtain and let Mu Nan drive away. After walking a few steps, Gu Jiusi suddenly lifted the curtain and asked, "Where is Madam now?"

    "I knew you would ask."

    Mu Nan said with a smile: "I just sent someone to ask, the young lady should drink tea along Jiufang Street."

    Mu Nan spent the night memorizing the map of Dongdu, and Gu Jiusi also memorized a few main streets. Jiufang Street is the most prosperous main road in Dongdu, and he knows it.

    "We'll pick her up."

    Gu Jiusi spoke happily, Mu Nan was a little helpless, but still answered.

    When Gu Jiusi went in the direction of Liu Yuru with great interest, Liu Yuru was drinking tea in the teahouse with Yinhong. The storyteller was sitting in the lobby, telling stories that were rare in Yangzhou, mostly from some Eastern capitals time to talk.

    Liu Yuru ran for a day today, inquired about the house prices and rents in various districts of Dongdu, and looked at a few houses.

    The housing price of Dongdu is twice that of Yangzhou, and the rent is even more expensive, mainly because the people in Dongdu are densely populated, and the people who come to Dongdu are local rich people from all over the world. It doesn't matter if you spend some money to live for a while.

    After walking around, Liu Yuru found out that in fact, they live in this place, except that the decoration is not very good, the rest is good, especially the location, it is very close to Miyagi, and it is not easy to walk. In a quarter of an hour, Gu Jiusi will be able to sleep more at home in the future.

    He used to be a lazy person, getting up every day would kill him, especially in winter, it was even more difficult. He used to be in Wangdu, and he was the largest in the county government office, so he announced that he would start working at the end of the morning every day. Now that he came to Dongdu, he would go to court every day at 90. On the first day, he had just entered Dongdu, and he still had some. Excited, I'm afraid it will be torture in the future.

    Liu Yuru thought about it for a day, and decided to buy the house. Although this amount is not small, the income of Huarong in the past six months plus the remuneration for the trip to collect the grain, bought it There is a house in Dongdu, and half of the remaining money is left.

    Liu Yuru was also a little tired after settling this matter, so she went into a teahouse at will, planning to rest for a day or two, and then went home.

    The people around were chatting, and what they said was nothing more than a matter of the new dynasty. Now the new dynasty has changed the country's name to Hua, and the era name is Yongfu. Everyone is talking about Fan Xuan and the courtiers in private. , not too dissatisfied.

    The first thing Fan Xuan did after he became emperor was to announce the reduction of taxes, and the people were extremely happy. But Liu Yuru thought about it, Fan Xuan reduced the tax, where did the money in the imperial court come from? It must have come from somewhere else.

    Liu Yuru sat for a while, and saw that the sky was getting a little dark, she turned her head and glanced outside, and instructed Yin Hong: "Is it going to rain soon?"

    Yin Hong poured tea for her, looked up at the outside, and replied, "Come on, why don't we go back?"

    Liu Yuru nodded and instructed Yinhong to call for a carriage. Their carriage was parked three streets away, and it would take a while for Yinhong to go.

    Liu Yuru took a sip of tea slowly, stood up, greeted the person to settle the bill, and then walked downstairs.

      , Liu Yuru stood at the door, thinking in her heart that Yinhong should not be able to reach the carriage at this time, for fear that she would be blocked on the road by the rain, and under which roof would she take shelter from the rain.

    Liu Yuru was not in a hurry, she stood at the door and looked at the rain curtain outside.

    She stood quietly at the door, and in the restaurant opposite the tea house, a young man in luxurious clothes was leaning on a chair, quietly watching the passers-by running around on the street to avoid the rain.

    He was extremely handsome, with hyacinth eyes and thin lips. But this can't stop the naturally good-looking facial features, and looking at it, it is beautiful with a bit of evil.

    He sat in front of the restaurant window, turned the emerald green wrench on his finger, and said slowly, "I didn't expect that there would be such heavy rain in Dongdu."

    The attendant behind him did not speak, the room was extremely silent, Luo Zishang picked up the wine glass next to him, took a sip, and looked through the rain curtain, and then fell to the woman at the door of the restaurant opposite body.

    The woman was wearing a light gauze cloak, a white blouse, and a woman's bun, standing at the door of the teahouse, like a weeping willow in Yangzhou in March, soft and beautiful.

    Luo Zishang looked around quietly for a moment, then suddenly said, "Did Gu Jiusi come to Dongdu?"

    The attendant standing behind him finally spoke, and said very briefly: "It should be."

    Luo Zishang raised his head and muttered to himself, "The letter I sent a few years ago is now over three months, and it should be here."

    He smiled and suddenly said, "Yu Nan, go get me an umbrella."

    The attendant called Yu Nan did not speak, and walked out. Luo Zishang stood up, brushed his sleeves, glanced left and right, saw that the accessories were neat and there were no wrinkles on the clothes, so he went downstairs.

    Yu Nan had already settled the bill and stood at the door with an umbrella. Luo Zishang took the umbrella from Yu Nan and instructed, "Wait here."

    After finishing speaking, Luo Zishang opened his umbrella and stepped into the rain curtain.

    At this moment, Gu Jiusi was in the carriage, leaning against the wall of the carriage.

      Overwhelming, he did not notice.

     After walking for an unknown time, the carriage stopped suddenly, and he vaguely heard the sound of conversation outside. came in.

    She was a little wet, but it was okay, Gu Jiusi suddenly woke up, and hurriedly said: "Why are you alone, young lady?"

    "The madam asked the slaves to call for the carriage. She was waiting in the teahouse, but it suddenly rained heavily, and the slaves were blocked on the road, just happened to meet the uncle."

    Yin Hong hurriedly explained, Gu Jiusi rolled the blinds to look outside, saw the heavy rain, turned her back to Yin Hong and said, "She is waiting for you alone?"

    "Yes." Yin Hong was also a little anxious, "Only me and the young lady came out today."

    Gu Jiusi frowned, originally thinking that it would be too much for Mu Nan to drive a carriage outside in such a heavy rain, but when he read Liu Yuru alone, he felt a little worried and said: "You Did Tong Munan tell you about the location of the teahouse?"

    "Said," Yinhong returned, "It's very close, it will be there soon."

    When Gu Jiusi met Yinhong, Liu Yuru was a little bored waiting.

      It was raining heavily on the broken bridge, and Xu Xian came with an umbrella. It was an oil-paper umbrella with eighty-four bones and a purple bamboo handle. Magnolia in full bloom was painted on it.

    Liu Yuru had nothing to do, stretched out her hand to catch the drizzle, and then saw a figure suddenly appear in this empty street.

    At the beginning of the period, she couldn't see clearly, and she didn't care, but when the other party walked in the middle of the road, she suddenly saw the other party's face clearly.

    Liu Yuru retracted her hand, involuntarily tightened her body, and her face was calm and calm.

    When the other party saw her action, he smiled lightly. He came calmly, stood in front of Liu Yuru with an umbrella, and said with a smile, "Boss Liu."

    Liu Yuru laughed, as if she didn't know anything, and replied respectfully, "Young Master Luo."

      Dongdu?"

    "It's normal for me to come to the East," Liu Yuru said calmly, "but I don't want to, Luo Gongzi is in Yangzhou dealing with all kinds of things, and he also came to the East?"

    "The prosperous places in the East are all yearning for, and Luo is no exception."

    Luo Zishang glanced around and said, "Where is Boss Liu going, Luo will give you a ride?"

    "No need," Liu Yuru turned to look at the rain screen: "I'll wait here for a while, and my family will come soon. If Young Master Luo has something to do, the concubine will not disturb him."

    "It's fine."

    Luo Zishang walked to Liu Yuru's side, put away the umbrella, and said in a calm voice: "When I first came to Dongdu, I met an old friend, and I was overjoyed, so I accompanied Boss Liu and waited for his family. , let's have a few words."

    "Young Master Luo and I don't seem to have much to talk about."

    Liu Yuru put away her smile and looked at the rain curtain quietly: "Young Master Luo, why don't you go into the house and drink two cups of tea, and see that it's raining heavily here, and Bi Gan is standing here, accompany me as a woman. Good people."

    "Why is there nothing to talk about?"

    Luo Zishang chuckled lightly, his voice was extremely low, with an indescribable deepness: "Let's talk about how Boss Liu avoided my ban in Yangzhou to drive up the price of food, so that OK."

    Hearing this, Liu Yuru didn't say anything, she turned to look at Luo Zishang, looked at him calmly, Luo Zishang smiled, but there was no trace of anger in the smile, and continued: "Sincerely Ask for advice, no accountability."

      And asked me what to do."

    "After all, it's not me, there are many details, I'm afraid those people are not very clear."

    Luo Zishang looked down at the umbrella in his hand, the orchid still had water droplets on the umbrella, he raised his hand and took a silk handkerchief from his sleeve, brushed the orchid lightly, and said, "But Boss Liu doesn't want to talk about it, so that's fine. Let's talk about something else, I heard that Boss Liu is looking for the Liu family?"

    "No." Hearing Luo Zishang mentioning his family, Liu Yuru suddenly froze, Luo Zishang laughed softly, "Don't be nervous, I just ask casually, if Boss Liu If you need it, maybe I can help you?"

    "No need."

    Liu Yuru said coldly, "I don't get along with my family, and I have nothing to look for. I'm going to trouble you, Mr. Luo."

    "That's all." Luo Zishang's voice seemed to be regretful.

    As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Jiusi's carriage came from a distance. Liu Yuru saw the carriage from a long time ago, and when she saw the patterns on the carriage, she recognized it as the Gu family's carriage, and her face suddenly became happy. Luo Zishang glanced at her without a trace, and said slowly: "Speaking of which, the fate with Boss Liu is not too shallow. I have seen Boss Liu so many times, but I still don't know Boss Liu's name. How dare you ask Boss Liu's name?"

    "I don't know Luo Gongzi very well, and Luo Gongzi doesn't need to know the name of the boudoir."

    While speaking, the carriage stopped at the door, Gu Jiusi took the umbrella from the carriage, lifted the curtain and jumped from the carriage, hurried to Liu Yuru, held the umbrella in front of Liu Yuru, happy Said: "Yuru, it's raining heavily today. Fortunately, I'll pick you up, otherwise I don't know what to do with you. Let's go, I'll take you home."

    Liu Yuru smiled and listened to him taking credit for herself, but did not speak. Gu Jiusi saw that Liu Yuru's eyes were all clear, and he was not too embarrassed. He coughed lightly, then held an umbrella for Liu Yuru, raised his hand on Liu Yuru's shoulder, covered Liu Yuru with his sleeves from the rain, and walked to the carriage to protect her. .

    Gu Jiusi didn't notice Luo Zishang, and Liu Yuru deliberately didn't say goodbye to Luo Zishang. Luo Zishang looked at their backs and squinted. Zishang suddenly said, "Liu Yuru!"

    Everyone stopped, Gu Jiusi noticed the existence of Luo Zishang, he turned around and looked at Luo Zishang with some doubts.

    Luo Zishang's eyes were on Liu Yuru, Liu Yuru frowned and looked at him, Luo Zishang smiled, he held an umbrella and walked in front of the two of them, and then put it away, he was soaked all over In the rain, he didn't care at all, just handed the umbrella to Liu Yuru and said with a smile, "The gift of giving the umbrella is unforgettable."

    Liu Yuru didn't say anything, Luo Zishang saw that she didn't answer, so he calmly raised his hand, put the umbrella on the carriage, then bowed and saluted, as if it was the first time they met, respectfully said: "Miss Liu , in the next Luozishang."

    Gu Jiusi's expression suddenly froze, Luo Zishang turned around and walked into the restaurant.

    "Young Master..." Mu Nan said worriedly.

    Gu Jiusi did not speak, he turned around, held an umbrella for Liu Yuru, and said peacefully: "Don't stand in the rain, get into the carriage."

    Liu Yuru knew that Gu Jiusi was unhappy, so she didn't dare to say more, she could only nodded in response, and followed Gu Jiusi's words and got into the carriage.

    Gu Jiusi held an umbrella and let her into the carriage, followed by standing up.

    When he stood on the carriage, he felt that his feet had stepped on something. He lowered his head and saw the umbrella under his feet. The orchids on it were vividly painted, and they bloomed just right in the rain.

    Gu Jiusi was silent for a moment, he suddenly bent down, picked up the umbrella, and threw the umbrella in the direction of Luo Zishang before everyone was caught off guard!

    The umbrella was thrown off guard by him, and it hit Luo Zishang's head with a "bang". Jiusi stood on the carriage, holding an umbrella, and said with a smile: "Master Luo, next time we meet, please call Mrs. Gu."

    Luo Zishang didn't speak, his expression was cold, Gu Jiusi's face sank, and he suddenly drank: "Next time I'll give my wife something messy, I'll fight it once I see it!"

    After finishing speaking, Gu Jiusi put away his umbrella, lowered his head and lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.

    Yin Hong and Liu Yuru were both sitting inside, Liu Yuru and the others heard the movement just now, they pursed their lips and suppressed a smile.

    Gu Jiusi sat in with a look of anger, turned her head away and said nothing.

    The carriage started to move, Gu Jiusi seemed to think that smashing it was not enough. After thinking about it, he grabbed his umbrella and lifted the curtain to throw it away.

    Liu Yuru hurriedly raised her hand to hold Gu Jiusi's hand, persuading: "Okay, smash it, it won't make sense if you smash it again. You just became an official, don't become an official today, Tomorrow, I'll get a quote from someone who says you beat people in the street."

    Speaking, Liu Yuru took the umbrella from Gu Jiusi's hand, handed it to Yinhong, and continued: "What's more, it's okay to smash his umbrella, this umbrella is our own, it's a good umbrella , it's expensive."

    "Look at his little white face!" Gu Jiusi thought more and more angrily, "I'm still here, he dares to do this, he thinks I'm a soft persimmon? You don't know his name Luo Zishang? Do you still need him to introduce himself like this? I think he has bad intentions and bad intentions, taking advantage of you in front of me!"

    Liu Yuru was amused by Gu Jiusi, she took the handkerchief from the side, wiped the water on Gu Jiusi's hands, and persuaded: "I have met him twice, including the third one today, I If he is married, what can he see?"

    Liu Yuru lowered her head and said gently: "He's here for you, do you think he doesn't know you? Even if he doesn't know you, he will definitely know that my husband is you, as soon as you appear , he knew it right away. He was mad at you on purpose."

      I see what else he is doing here!"

    Yinhong next to her couldn't hold back any longer, she suppressed her voice and laughed out loud, Liu Yuru glanced at Yinhong with a bit of complaint, Yinhong hurriedly lowered her head to pour tea, Gu Jiusi raised her head and glared at her: "What are you laughing at? Is it funny?! You left your young lady there alone, and you are ashamed to laugh when you meet such a prodigal son?"

    "Sorry, uncle, I was wrong."

    Yin Hong hurriedly admitted her mistake, Liu Yuru saw that Gu Jiusi was going to set fire on Yin Hong, and hurriedly said: "How about facing up today? How does Your Majesty treat you?"

    Speaking of this, Gu Jiusi's anger finally calmed down, he took a sip of tea and said with some unstoppable pride: "Your Majesty is very good to me, Wang Hong, the great **** beside him He also came to congratulate me on purpose, I am also considered a favorite of the emperor."

    Liu Yuru looked at Gu Jiusi, raised her hand and poked his head: "Don't be too proud, it's just a small achievement, there is still a long way to go in the future."

    "Where is this small achievement?" Gu Jiusi was dissatisfied, "Have you ever seen such a young servant as me? My achievement," Gu Jiusi stretched out his hand and gestured, "It's a big one. Great achievement!"

    Liu Yuru was a little helpless, she glanced at Yinhong who lowered her head frantically and suppressed a smile, but it was not easy to reprimand Gu Jiusi in front of others, the rain outside was quiet, Yinhong quickly said: "Master , Madam, I'll go out first, and you can talk."

    Speaking, Yinhong got out of the carriage, and when only Liu Yuru and Gu Jiusi were left in the carriage, Liu Yuru said, "Don't be too arrogant, there are many powerful people in this world."

    "I know I know," Gu Jiusi sighed, "I'm not just chatting with you, do you want you to praise me?"

    Liu Yuru heard the words, she paused, reflected for a moment, and felt that Gu Jiusi was right, and he was always measured when he was out. So she smiled and said: "That's mine, isn't it, I was just afraid that you were too proud and complacent, if you know what to do, then I should praise you, a person like you is indeed a dragon and a phoenix among people. already."

    "Really?" Gu Jiusi raised her eyebrows, as if she didn't believe it. Liu Yuru took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "I said you weren't, and you weren't happy. I praised you, but you didn't believe it, you How?"

    "I just want to know, it's so good now," Gu Jiusi leaned over and leaned in front of Liu Yuru, "Do you still think it's a pity to marry me?"

    Liu Yuru heard this, looked up at him, he was very close to her, his young face seemed to be joking, but his eyes were full of seriousness.

    Liu Yuru stared at him quietly, after a while, Liu Yuru smiled slowly: "Even if you are not as good as you are now, I don't think it's a pity."

    "This marriage," Liu Yuru held the cup and thought about it seriously, "It seems that not long after marrying you, I don't think it's any regret."

    "So you liked me so early!"

    Gu Jiusi suddenly realized, Liu Yuru didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You put gold on your face again."

    Gu Jiusi looked at her and smiled. Seeing her appearance, she suddenly leaned forward and kissed her. Liu Yuru was used to this kind of sneak attack. He said, "I feel a lot more relieved after hearing what you said."

    "What's wrong with you?"

    Liu Yuru was a little surprised by his unease, but in her heart, she became a pro, where is there anything else left over?

     Not to mention that others would not like her, even if she did, how could she possibly respond?

    Gu Jiusi saw that Liu Yuru was ignorant, and sighed: "Actually, I shouldn't tell you this, I should tell you that you are not good, then you will definitely not leave me, But come to think of it, I still have to tell you the truth."

    Gu Jiusi's words were serious, but Liu Yuru was a little nervous. Gu Jiusi reached out and took her hand, looked at her, and said seriously: "There will be many people who like you."

    Liu Yuru was stunned for a while, she looked at Gu Jiusi, there was no flattery in Gu Jiusi's eyes, he quietly watched her: "You are such a good girl, you are beautiful, have a good personality, and can make money , have their own ideas, whoever sees it, can't help but look sideways, no matter whether anyone liked you in the past, or whether anyone has told you, but I know that there will be many people who will like you in the future."

    Liu Yuru was a little sad and a little happy when she heard Gu Jiusi's words.

    Since she was a child, it was the first time that someone had praised her so seriously, told her that she liked her so frankly, that she couldn't help but feel a little sore.

    "Where can I say that you are so good?"

    Liu Yuru lowered her head and smiled: "That is, your lover's eyes are full of Xishi."

    Gu Jiusi smiled, he held her hand, bowed his head and kissed the back of her hand, and said softly: "You don't understand now, you will understand later."

    "Speak as if you're much older than me."

    Liu Yuru glanced at him angrily, Gu Jiusi smiled and sat beside her, took her into his arms, hugged her and teased: "Two years old is also old, come, call me brother Jiusi. "

    Liu Yuru blushed and ignored him, Gu Jiusi lifted her chin. Liu Yuru reached out to push him, Gu Jiusi simply grabbed her hand, wrapped her waist, pressed her against the wall of the car, and lowered her head to kiss her.

    He licked her lips lightly and said hoarsely: "Be good, call me brother, eh?"
