The Queen's Guide to Wealth

Chapter 118
After Xiaosi yelled like this, the people who came to buy things in the store turned their attention to these people again.

The shopkeeper's face was ugly, as long as the few people present were not blind, they could tell that the shopkeeper was in a bad mood now, Gu Lian cupped his fists to express his apology.

Dongyang walked forward with a brisk step, grabbed Xiao Si's wrist firmly, gritted his teeth and whispered in her ear.

"You are really vicious, and you really ran out to ruin our reputation. Don't think I don't know what you're up to, Tianlu has said it all. You'd better be honest, and you can still see growing up together For the sake of finding a good place for you, if you make trouble again, don't blame me for being cruel."

Xiaosi's face was a little pale, and it was a public place, so Dongyang would not dare to treat him like this.

It's just that the opportunity is right in front of you, so it's a pity to give up like this. Just as I was about to open my mouth to shout "Shopkeeper", I felt severe pain in my wrist.

It's just a matter of gasping, thinking that this plan will not work out, so I can only go back with them first.

He didn't dare to use the previous trick again, he was afraid that he would offend Gu Lian, and he would not be able to stabilize him after returning, so he could only shut up.

Dong Yang pulled Xiao Si out of the shop, Gu Lian stepped forward to apologize to the shopkeeper, the shopkeeper was smiling, but he had put them in the blacklist in his heart.

After they left, they said to the store clerk: "In the future, if there are odd jobs, I'd rather go to the wharf and spend a few more dollars than find these beggars wandering around in the city. Last time, it was because of the money. I came to make trouble once, and saw that they were pitiful and didn't care about it. Only a few days later, I came to make trouble again."

A guy who had a fairly good relationship with Gu Lian and the others whispered in a low voice.

"The ones who don't obey the rules are just a few. The people of Gu Lian are still good. Besides, don't they have a kindness with the head of the family? Wouldn't it be too good not to give them jobs in the future?"

The shopkeeper snorted coldly: "What do you know? It's not up to you to decide whether it's good or not. If it's not convenient, you won't let it go. At the beginning, the owner said, otherwise, let them sign the deed and enter the door of Xie's house." , it’s better than begging for life on the street. They’re all half-grown kids, it’s a pity to see them. Who knows they’re not happy about it.”

The guy whispered: "It's me, and I don't want to. You are a good family, why sell it to others as a slave."

"What are you talking about? The Xie family didn't pay you, or did you lose your food, what's wrong with selling it to the Xie family. Be content with it, and look at how the people in the capital are living now."

The clerk quickly put on a professional smile, and said flatteringly: "What the shopkeeper said is that those boys are ignorant, wild boars can't eat chaff, and it's their loss that they don't want to sell themselves."

The shopkeeper snorted, and flicked the brocade gown on his body: "It's good that you know. Don't be immaculate like them. It's the most real thing to have a full stomach these years. Who cares whether you are a good citizen or a slave."

The man didn't dare to answer any more, and silently apologized to Gu Lian and the others in his heart.

The shopkeeper turned his head and said to the accountant on the cash drawer: "In the future, I will give [-]% more orders to the Li family's bamboo shop in the east, and the receiving price will be [-]% lower. They all come to ask for me, and I can't refuse. "

The accountant nodded and agreed: "Is it an old acquaintance of the shopkeeper?" Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't answer, he didn't ask any more.

He also said: "I won't ask Gu Lian and the others to do casual work in the future, so should I pay them the previous wages?"

As soon as he heard that the wages were due, the shopkeeper raised his voice: "Idiot, do you still need me to say this? It would be good if they didn't ask them to compensate for today's loss, and pay the wages. If someone over there comes to ask for it, try to delay it for a while." drag."

The cashier agreed, but he looked down on the shopkeeper in his heart, and also withheld a few small change from the child, which was really a trick.

After the shopkeeper finished explaining the matter, he went around the shop again, chatted affectionately with the customers in the shop for a while, and then went upstairs with square steps.

Dongyang held Xiaosi's hand tightly all the way, even if Xiaosi cried out for pain, he would not let go at all, and didn't take care that she was invisible, so he dragged her back like that.

Pedestrians on the road that pulled Jianyin all looked sideways, but Gu Lian didn't speak, obviously extremely disappointed in Xiaosi.

A few people walked to the bridge, Xiaosi suddenly sat on the ground and refused to leave, looking like a rascal, causing more people to come forward to watch.

Everyone saw a few half-grown boys bullying a girl, and pointed and said some nasty words.

Xia Zhi is a big kid, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Oh, my sister hurts from a fall, brother, hurry up and carry her back, just don't get hurt."

Dongyang lifted the small four-arm on his shoulders, and ran towards the small courtyard with brisk steps, regardless of her screams and exclamations.

When they got home, Xiao Si became more honest and sat down obediently without crying or fussing.

She didn't seem to hear what Gu Lian asked her, she either didn't answer or said she didn't know.

Gu Lian also lost his temper, and he didn't want to spend any more time with her, so he ordered Dongyang to take Xia Zhi and his younger siblings back first, and asked Baiquan to stay and watch Xiao Si, lest she go out to mess around again.

Before leaving, he said to her: "You don't have to wait for Tianlu, he has already been sent to Yongning Prefecture by me, Mr. has property there, he can learn the rules when he goes there, and you don't have to worry about his life If he doesn’t like it, someone will teach him to be a man.”

Hearing this, Xiaosi's face changed: "He is my only relative, why did you send him away without discussing with me, he is not a slave who sold himself to you, even if he did something wrong, What right do you have to deal with him?"

Gu Lian's footsteps paused, and he turned his back to Xiaosi and said: "Is that so, he is your only relative. I always thought that all of us who ate in the same pot in the ruined temple in the capital are relatives. It seems that it is not in your heart."

Xiaosi realized that he had said the wrong thing, stood up and hurriedly explained: "I didn't mean that, of course you are also my relatives."

Gu Lian still didn't look back: "You don't need to explain to me, I know you always blamed me for stopping you from signing the Xie family's body contract and cutting off your chance to enter the wealthy family. Zhizhi thinks clearly for himself. It seems that I overestimated you."

Then he stepped out of the room step by step: "Since you said that Tianlu is your only relative, I can't tell you to separate. If you value him so much, I will send you to find him."

Xiaosi was a little panicked, she couldn't leave Kaiyue Town yet, she hadn't met Master Xie's family yet, and she hadn't told him Jinbo's hiding place yet.

But Gu Lian had already made up his mind, and closed the door heavily, even though Xiao Si shouted, no one paid any attention to her.

Not long after, a carriage stopped in front of the small courtyard, the driver was Gu Lian, the carriage came to a complete stop, a girl in Tsing Yi jumped off from it, went into the house and led Xiao Si into the carriage.

Following the afterglow of the setting sun, we drove away from Qiyue Town.
