my grandmother

When Li Xiaonan woke up, Wan Qing had already woken up. Seeing that she was awake, she hurriedly pointed to the outside, "My son is here, hurry up!"

Li Xiaonan scrambled to her feet, hurriedly washed and came out.

The lobby has been emptied, except for a table in front of the window near the inner courtyard.

Gu Yan was sitting at the table, looking at a long book, when he heard the movement, he looked up to see Li Xiaonan, closed the long book, and signaled Shi Gun to put away the pile of documents on the table.

"I heard that you were in danger last night. I invited a doctor to come with you. It seems..." Gu Yan looked Li Xiaonan up and down.

"I'm fine."

"I heard that you ate a lot for dinner last night and slept until now. You are indeed fine. I was overwhelmed and sent the doctor back." Gu Yan nodded the chair next to him.

"Where did you come from? Just passing by?" Li Xiaonan sat down and took a few sips of tea.

"I came here on a special trip from Pingjiang City." Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan carefully again from top to bottom.

"They caught someone alive, have you tried it? What's going on?" Li Xiaonan put down her glass and asked.

"Eat first." Gu Yan gestured to the boy who put breakfast on the table.

The breakfast was very rich, but Li Xiaonan was not in the mood. She buried her head in her breakfast and endured until the servant took away the dishes and served tea again. Li Xiaonan asked again, "Have you passed the trial?"

"Well, they are all scoundrels in Changzhou City. They make a living by blackmailing gangsters. The three leaders are known as the three brothers who are sworn brothers in Liuyuan. The second and third rushed to the front yesterday. They are already dead. The boss is called Shi Datou. , Said it was because you had a lot of horses, and thought it must be rich people who robbed wealth." Gu Yan sneered.

"Nonsense!" Li Xiaonan raised her eyebrows.

"Well, this Shi Datou is very loyal, too stupid."

"Then you asked?"

"He bit off his tongue. However, his brothers said that he often said that the old man Zhu of Xiangyun Zhu's family was so kind to him. Before he robbed and killed you, Shi Datou went to Pingjiang City. Mrs. Zhu has been living in the Zhu's courtyard in Pingjiang City."

"Because I bought weavers? Because the Li family harvested silkworm cocoons?" Li Xiaonan frowned.

"Maybe it's because you're too close to me." Gu Yan said with a serious face while leaning forward.

"Me and you? Too close? When did I get close to you? Close! Did you say this word, or someone else?" Li Xiaonan leaned back against the back of the chair with a look of disgust.

"Why aren't you getting close? How many people are there in the world who can eat with me, drink tea together, and sit and talk together like this? You are the only one among women!" Gu Yan stretched out his arms, curled his fingers, and stood in front of Li Xiaonan. There was a knock on the table.

Li Xiaonan stared at Gu Yan, blinked several times, but couldn't dismiss it.

It seems so.

But this can't be called intimacy, can it?
"How old are you this year? Did no one come to propose marriage to you?" Gu Yan stretched out his head and asked.

"No one proposes marriage to me because my second elder sister is still in her boudoir, and no one proposes marriage to my second elder sister. What's wrong with no one? Do you think that everyone is like you, and the people who propose marriage break through the threshold ?” Li Xiaonan dismissed it bluntly.

"All right, all right, you're right." Gu Yan leaned back in his chair and let out a heck of a laugh.

"You said that Ah Wu's kung fu is very good. Yesterday I saw that the four followers of your family, including the coachman, were all similar to Ah Wu. Are all your servants so good?" Li Xiaonan changed the subject.

This is something to ask carefully.

Gu Yan didn't answer, but laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Xiaonan stared at Gu Yan.

"Laugh at your cleverness." Gu Yan simply laughed out loud.

Li Xiaonan wanted to roll her eyes, but held back, moved away, and picked up the cup to drink tea.

"The entourage following you is not the entourage of the mansion, and the coachman is not the mansion's coachman, those are my personal guards.

"Awu's brute force is comparable to theirs. When it comes to predicting the enemy's attack and deploying troops, Ah Wu can also compare with Wan Qing." Gu Yan laughed.

"The one who came to meet you yesterday? Also your personal guard?" Li Xiaonan glanced at Gu Yan.

"No. They are using my call for help gun. The cannon is launched into the air. Anyone who sees it, regardless of their affiliation, must rush to help immediately.

"The Changzhou army was the first to rush over yesterday. I have rewarded them for you." Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan with a smile.

Li Xiaonan frowned a little bit, looking at Gu Yan.

"What are you looking at?" Gu Yan met Li Xiaonan's gaze.

"Have you seen the legend of the engagement shop in the past?" Li Xiaonan asked vaguely.

Gu Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and hummed speciously.

"I don't like stories like engagement shops. No matter whether reincarnation is true or not, the past and future lives are too illusory. I just need to concentrate on living the present. My life is here to enjoy and live well, not to pay off debts." Li Xiaonan Looking at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan with a serious face, and smiled for a moment, "Even if you have debts, you are still the creditor."

"Then repeat the last sentence: I'm not here to collect debts." Li Xiaonan answered immediately.

Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan, for a moment, laughed, and after laughing for a while, Gu Yan stretched his head forward, "What's wrong with me?"

"You're a tiger, I'm a quail, it's not suitable." Li Xiaonan leaned back against the back of the chair.

Gu Yan was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Look, you're scared, it's just a joke. The business you want to do is of great benefit to me, and it's my duty to protect you.

"Since Huang Xianzhou took over the case from the Customs Department, I let him live in Yang Wu's barracks. He must be accompanied when he goes out. Zhou Shennian is traveling around, and there are guards around him."

Li Xiaonan breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Yan slanted her sideways, stretched out his fingers and knocked hard in front of her a few times, "I'm just reminding you, you and I don't have such thoughts, it's hard to guarantee that others don't, you have to be careful."

"It's fine if you don't have it, and it doesn't matter to anyone else." Li Xiaonan nodded quickly.

"If I'm really an unreasonable bully and rob you, what are you going to do?" Gu Yan asked suddenly.

"I haven't thought about it, but I think I can definitely figure out a way."

"What are your plans for tomorrow? Then go to your weaver school?" Gu Yan asked.

"Ok!"

"I have to go. From now on, you will go late and rest early, don't rush at night." Gu Yan stood up.

"Okay." Li Xiaonan simply agreed, stood up and followed Gu Yan to the yard.

Seeing Gu Yan leave the inn, Wan Qing ran to Li Xiaonan's side and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Have you been reprimanded? Has the monthly payment been deducted?" Li Xiaonan looked at Wan Qing.

"Neither. The Master said that Ah Wu and Yu Ting were good guards, and each of them was rewarded with 100 taels of silver." Wan Qing clicked her tongue enviously.

"Didn't reward you?"

"I'm so scared, why should I be rewarded?" Wan Qing rolled her eyes at Li Xiaonan.

"Well, logically speaking, Ah Wu and Yu Ting did it for me, and those long-term attendants, logically speaking, I should thank them with money." Li Xiaonan sighed.

"Do you have money?" Wan Qing asked bluntly.

"Isn't it just not?" Li Xiaonan sighed again, "But, it shouldn't be like this."

He rewarded and thanked her for her, how could this not make others think so much!
