On the wedding night, the sick prince stood up!

Chapter 123 Beggar
Chun Yu and Su Qing have a good relationship, so they won't be angry with each other, but Su Qing's ears are soft and her heart is more sensitive.

On weekdays, Chunyu brainwashed her ears, which made her go down firmly.

But recently, because of Su Tao's absence, Chun Yu has been busier, so she also ignored Su Qing and did not brainwash Su Qing in time.

This gave some gossip women an opportunity, but what Su Qing believed most was Chun Yu.

It only takes a few words from Chun Yu, and she will be back to normal again.

Gu Xiyue noticed the interaction between Chun Yu and Su Qing early in the morning, so she naturally heard how Chun Yu brainwashed Su Qing.

When the food was delivered, Gu Xiyue asked all the women to sit down and eat together.

This was the first time Gu Xiyue asked them to have dinner together, Su Qing and the others looked at each other, obviously no one dared to sit down.

Reluctantly, Gu Xiyue could only put up the airs of the princess and said, "One and two of you are so bold that you don't even listen to my princess, and you sit down when you are told."

Facing Gu Xiyue's majestic order, the six girls could only sit down one after another, and then Gu Xiyue smiled again.

She looked at these girls and said with a smile, "You have all worked hard these days, my concubine naturally saw your efforts, since we have time today, we will have dinner together."

In ancient times, there was no rule for masters and servants to sit at the same table, so when Gu Xiyue suggested that they eat together, the girls panicked.

But being treated like this by Gu Xiyue, they were still very moved.

Gu Xiyue continued, "You are not a princess at all, so you will not treat you badly. If I want to open a branch in the future, all of you will have the opportunity to be the store manager."

She set her eyes on Su Qing, "But now the manager of our beauty face rouge shop is Su Qing. Even if we open a branch in the future, Su Qing will still be the manager."

"My princess will tailor new clothes for you every month. If you have a favorite style, you can tell me. I will also give you jewelry every month. It is natural for girls to like to dress up."

"If you follow my concubine well, if you have someone you like in the future, this concubine will also give you a generous dowry."

Hearing what Gu Xiyue said, the girls in front of her were surprised.

There is food and drink here, and Gu Xiyue also sent servants to serve them. Apart from being a bit tired from work, they live like Miss Qianjin on weekdays.

Now Gu Xiyue still wants to ask Yueyue to help them tailor new clothes and add jewelry, what better place than here?

These girls were originally born in poor families, and they already thought it was heaven to have flesh, but now they are treated so favorably by Gu Xiyue.

Some of them even hugged each other and shed tears, looking at Gu Xiyue as if they were looking at the merciful and compassionate Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.

Su Qing was their representative, so she was naturally the first to stand up and speak.

"My lord, the daughter of the people kneels down to the princess on behalf of them."

After she finished speaking, she knelt down and said, "If it weren't for the grace of the princess to rebuild, we sisters don't know what to do. The princess can bear the kneeling of a civilian girl."

As soon as Su Qing finished speaking here, except for Chun Yu, the other four women knelt and kowtowed.

They said in unison, "Minister, I would like to thank the princess for her kindness in rebuilding."

Gu Xiyue looked at Chun Yu and said, "Let them get up quickly, the weak kneeling down like this, the princess doesn't have to eat anymore, the food won't taste good when it's cold."

With Gu Xiyue's instruction, Chun Yu quickly helped them up one by one.

While supporting her, she said, "Since you know the good intentions of the concubine, you must do things well, and you must not disappoint the concubine, do you understand?"

"If you have anything to do on weekdays, you must tell Su Qing. If Su Qing is busy, she can tell me if she sees me."

Gu Xiyue nodded, "Yes, my princess cares about your affairs."

It is not easy for a woman in this era. If she is born in a wealthy family, she will have more than ten years of happy time.

If you are born in a poor family, and your parents are patriarchal, then you will have a hard time.

In ancient times, after a woman married, she had to serve her parents-in-law, serve her husband, and have children.

Few can live for themselves, they live for others all their lives.

Obey the father at home, obey the husband when married, and obey the son when the husband dies.

Therefore, Gu Xiyue wanted them to live a more comfortable life, at least to leave some carefree memories before they got married.

Gu Xiyue can't control their thoughts and make them not marry in this life.

"You all sit down and eat quickly. After this meal, you will work hard, and you can't be lazy anymore."

The five girls quickly sat down and nodded, and then waited for Gu Xiyue to move their chopsticks first, and they didn't move until Gu Xiyue took the first chopsticks.

Gu Xiyue left without eating much, leaving only the six girls to eat and chat together.

She went upstairs and looked out of the window. The beauty face rouge shop was located near Wuhu Restaurant, and outside the window was the street with people coming and going.

There were the sounds of vendors hawking outside, and the sounds of some people chatting.

At this time, Gu Xiyue noticed the beggars in the crowd, she frowned slightly and counted them carefully.

Beggars seem to have increased recently.

At this time, there was a scolding voice from the steamed bun seller, "What the hell? You dare to steal my steamed stuffed bun. It must be those stinky beggars who don't know where they came from."

An old man on the side shook his head, "It's not easy, and I don't know what happened recently, there seem to be a lot of beggars in the capital."

The bun seller packed up his things and said, "That's right, these beggars are as if they haven't eaten for hundreds of years. My buns have been stolen several times, and I really paid for it."

The old man smiled, "Oh, you are so sweet, don't say that beggars like it, my grandson likes to eat your steamed stuffed buns, good craftsmanship."

Hearing someone praise his craftsmanship, the steamed stuffed bun seller scratched the back of his head and said embarrassedly, "What's the matter, sir, the craftsmanship passed down from your ancestors, if you like it, come and patronize my business more."

Gu Xiyue directed to the servants at the side, "Go and buy some steamed buns, and by the way, ask if there are many more beggars in the capital recently, and what are the characteristics of these beggars."

The servant replied, "Yes, the slave will go now."

Upstairs, Gu Xiyue watched the servant go to buy buns, and also watched him talk to the bun seller, and then came back with the buns in his hands.

"My lord, there are indeed a lot of beggars in the capital recently, but these beggars look different from the other beggars. They steal and grab things, and they don't even beg for food."

"And I heard that beggars are still increasing, and there are only a small number of them now."

Gu Xiyue frowned and asked, "Did you ask where these beggars came from?"

"There are both in the south and the north. Look at the soles of the shoes are worn out."

These people don't look like beggars, but rather refugees. They wear out the soles of their shoes after traveling for a long time. After traveling so far to the capital, Gu Xiyue has a bad feeling in his heart.

She hurriedly asked her servants to inquire further, because she always felt that this matter was not easy.

So many beggars suddenly appeared in the capital, ordinary beggars were begging for food, and few dared to steal or grab things.
