Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 162 Lively
Xi Xi thinks that she has a generous personality, and she doesn't really care what others think of her, whether they hate her or praise her.

Anyway, she still drinks wine, dances and lives.

But now she feels that if there are a few people who treat her as usual, just treat her as a friend they meet on the road and can talk to each other, that would be great.

Xixi is a little envious of Qiuli and the others.

"Hey, Qiuli is here for you. I'll let Cherry go out too. You should hire her too. It's more fulfilling to raise the two sisters together, and it's boring to share."

Gu Xiang: "..."

I stared at Qiuli for a few times. Qiuli looks good, with red lips and white teeth. She cried a lot today, her eyes were red, and her face turned pale when she was scared, but she could still see her healthy pink and white skin.

When she first came, although the original owner's facial features were beautiful, she was far from having such a good complexion. It was after she supplemented her life with a lot of delicious food that she had such a pair of icy skin and jade skin that made people envious at first sight.

The original owner was very much loved by her father and mother at home, Gu Laoshi didn't eat or drink by himself, and would make some meat snacks for the original owner every now and then as a tooth sacrifice.

Just pampered and raised like this, the original owner's foundation is very poor.

Raising Qiuli so beautifully and teaching her how to read and write, and looking at her attire, the materials are all high-quality, the rouge and gouache are also high-end, and the beads on her head are simple, but the beads are bright because of the workmanship. It is obvious that Miss Xixi is in her favor The two maids put a lot of effort into it.

Gu Xiang could feel Miss Xixi's regret right away.

The Li family bullied people like this just now, I'm afraid Miss Xixi wanted to kill her.

If she has worked so hard and earnestly raised a girl for more than ten years, and spent an untold amount of painstaking efforts to raise her, but she is taken to be a concubine for a young man who doesn't know how to count, and let someone like Mrs. Cai torment her, she will definitely be angry It's worth killing.

Miss Xixi gritted her teeth resentfully: "The one surnamed Cai should live next door with the stupid grandson tonight, and I will burn down their building tonight..."

"Don't, be careful to accidentally injure the innocent. A foreigner surnamed Cai still wants to install a strong dragon on our territory? Just wait, I have a hundred ways to make her regret it."

Gu Xiang: "..."

After thinking about it for a while, she decided to take advantage of her and planned to take over the two sisters, Qiuli and Cherry.

These days, ordinary people's families don't know how to use maids. Most of the maids of aristocratic families are born at home. It costs a lot of money to raise a good girl who can do things from a young age.

Qiuli and Cherry have been trained in Xihuan Pavilion until now. Hiring them now is equivalent to avoiding the biggest investment in training. How cost-effective?

Moreover, these two maids are indeed inactive. If they don’t want to sell themselves to be maids in a rich family, then the only way is to marry in a hurry. If so, it’s better to go back to Zhuang with her. After the house is built according to her plan, it will be necessary to employ people.

Gu Xiang thought for a while and asked Qiu Li: "Are you really thinking about it? My family can't be compared with Xihuan Pavilion, nor can it be compared with other wealthy households. If you just don't want to sign a death contract, then it's not too difficult. Many maidservants in Shouling now only sign for five or eight years."

In the village, according to her seniority, she wanted to be called a daughter of her cousin's family, so she sold herself to a rich family in the county to be a maid.

I only signed a three-year contract, and when the day comes, I won't delay my marriage when I come out, and the market is still good.

Not to mention that the maids of rich families are doing well, even the concubines released by those families are more popular than the daughters of ordinary people in marriage.

When Gu Xiangcai heard the news from Mrs. Jiang, he was also very surprised. Later, he even encountered a situation where a newly married daughter-in-law was pawned to someone as a concubine, and after giving birth to a child, she took it home and continued to be a husband and wife. Afterwards, she felt that no matter what strange things she encountered in the future, she would not be surprised.

Qiu Li blinked, the bewilderment on her face dissipated a bit, she said with a light smile: "If it wasn't for the little lady, Qiu Li would have died..."

"Sister Qiuli, if you want to repay your kindness, you are welcome to give me money. I am also a woman, so I will definitely avoid it with my body."

Gu Xiang frowned.

"puff--"

Qiu Li laughed, and endured it for a long time before she could bear it.

Gu Xiang glanced at her, and said helplessly, "Okay...Although I still want to hire some smarter maids."

Cherry turned her head when she heard that, "Don't worry, little lady, I'm definitely smarter than my sister."

She mumbled when she spoke.

The people at Miss Xixi's table had dug out another jar of meat sauce from a corner, filled it with noodles again, and ate until their foreheads were sweating and their faces were flushed.

Only her sister was still talking stupidly.

Cherry nodded earnestly: "Little lady has sharp eyes and is accurate in seeing things. My sister is not active in eating, so she is not a bit stupid."

Qiu Li: "..."

She turned her head to look, and it was obvious that the jar of meat sauce had been divided up.

Gu Xiang couldn't laugh or cry, this is just a jar of meat sauce, and it's not delicacies from mountains and seas, so what's wrong with it?

She admitted that the meat sauce is delicious and goes well with rice, and it is as versatile as an old godmother, but after all, it is just meat sauce, an emergency food.

However, with such excitement, Qiuli seemed to have forgotten what happened just now.

She is young and thin-skinned. If something happens in public, if she doesn't resolve it properly, she may be left with a heartache. Now that everyone is making noise, it has diverted Qiu Li's attention, which is a good thing.

A table of beauties was having a lively meal, but Gu Xiang couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"This capital city is probably a place of right and wrong."

Gu Xiang quickly made a list in her mind. If she wanted to go to the capital, she would definitely have to make some preparations in advance, so as not to rush and make some unpleasant things happen.

From the perspective of the people of the Li family, the Li family is somewhat different from what she imagined, and the people in that family may not be easy to get along with.

Gu Xiang never thought of pretending nothing happened, hiding in Gu Zhuang and not showing up.

Her life experience since she was a child is that if something is bound to happen, then don't avoid it, the sooner you deal with it, the more calm you behave, and the less you take things seriously, the better.

If she refuses to go to the capital, there is a possibility that the other party doesn't take her seriously and just thinks she is not there. But thinking of those killers and troubles, Gu Xiang feels that the other possibility is bigger, and she may have to usher in Boom after wave can kill a person's trouble.

That being the case, then let's go generously, and the soldiers come to cover the water and soil, if you are not afraid of death, there is nothing to fear.

Besides, she is actually very curious about the bustling Tokyo city.

But there is no need to worry, the Cai family next door was beaten to the last breath by the yamen. The so-called injury for a hundred days, even if it is not worth wasting time for the Cai family, but the siege of the rebellious soldiers outside Shouling City is very dangerous, so we have to leave. Always consider safety issues.

Gu Xiang pondered for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, he temporarily put these things behind him, and took Miss Xixi to discuss business.

Her second life experience, don't get entangled when encountering things, and focus on the present first.
