After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Chapter 382 I'm Not Afraid

"Their names are Shunyi and Shunde. If you think the names are hard to remember, you can choose a new one for them."

Gu Jingcheng fixed his eyes on the maids, and said to them: "Just listen to Madam here, and follow her no matter where she goes. If there is any accident, you must put Madam's safety as the first priority. Otherwise, if Madam has an accident, I will definitely blame you."

Although the two maids were in contact with Gu Jingcheng for the first time, they had heard Gu Jingcheng's name from their master before, and they knew that this lord looked different from him.

Although this Mr. Gu looks kind and friendly, he doesn't look like he will embarrass these maids, but in fact he is extremely difficult to get along with.

As long as you didn't do anything wrong in front of him, that's all. If you accidentally do something wrong, Mr. Gu can kill you with his eyes, not to mention you may be punished.

So when Gu Jingcheng spoke now and ordered them to be given tasks, they didn't dare to say a word, but lowered their heads to show that they understood.

At this moment, the atmosphere was a little quiet again, Su Xiaomu felt strange, why did the two maids seem so afraid of Gu Jingcheng?

Although Gu Jingcheng usually treats others coldly, it is not like today. What makes them afraid is that Su Xiaomu thinks that Gu Jingcheng is some kind of man-eating beast that wants to eat them all.

This class is a bit exaggerated.

Gu Jingcheng still had something to go out, so the two maids stood with Su Xiaomu in the yard.

"Shunde Shunyi, since you are by my side, you should also know the rules by my side. I don't seem to have any other requirements for my opponents, only being loyal twice is what you must do. If you are unfaithful a hundred times, you can be stupid, but you must never be half-hearted, understand?"

Gu Jingcheng arranged these two maids by his side to let them protect his safety.

Since they are girls who protect safety, the word loyalty is even more important to them.

After all, they are equivalent to the patron saint of Su Xiaomu's life.

If something goes wrong with them, Su Xiaomu won't be able to breathe in this world anymore.

The maids naturally knew the stakes in this, and they didn't dare to offend Gu Jingcheng at all, let alone being dissatisfied with what Gu Jingcheng ordered.

So Shunde bowed to Su Xiaomu, and she said to Su Xiaomu respectfully: "Madam, don't worry, we know the reason for this. Since we are already guarding Madam, we will definitely protect Madam's safety and never let Madam do anything. If there is someone who dares to harm Madam, we will make him pay the price and make him die."

Shunde Shunyi seems to have a soft temper, but when he said this sentence, he was extremely imposing.

It made Su Xiaomu feel a sense of trust in vain.

Maybe it's because they believe in their oath at this moment, or maybe it's because they believe that no matter what, Gu Jingcheng does everything for his own good.

Su Xiaomu was not a person who could easily trust others, but in getting along day after day, she truly trusted Gu Jingcheng, and her whole heart was for her own good.

It has nothing to do with the love between them, Su Xiaomu thinks this way, it's more about the two years of getting along, the sense of security that Gu Jingcheng gave her.

"Then thank you both for protecting me."

In the end, Su Xiaomu didn't put on airs for his wife, she thanked the two maids gratefully.

However, although Su Xiaomu was happy and grateful that Gu Jingcheng arranged a maid who knew martial arts by her side, he didn't take them two very seriously.

Still the same sentence, now that Gu Jingcheng has not gained a firm foothold in the court, how can he have the extra time and ability to cultivate his confidants?

As for these two... Su Xiaomu thought about using them for the time being, and she still had to choose some people who could learn martial arts to accompany them.

Of course, after this crisis is resolved, Su Xiaomu will formally accept these two people by his side.

Anyway, she is short of people now, if she has the habit of using it, she doesn't need to spend any more time cultivating it.

Su Xiaomu rushed to Ren Yazi's place, because he knew Ren Yazi well, after Su Xiaomu told Ren Yazi about her needs, Ren Yazi immediately found a lot of innocent women who were good at martial arts.

Because Su Xiaomu asked for a large amount, Ren Yazi finally gave a discount, and signed a death contract for Su Xiaomu for ten taels of silver per person.

"That's the price I get from Mrs. Su. These are all girls from a family of generals. His Majesty cleared out a group of officials a few days ago, and their parents made mistakes there. No, they are all martial arts from elementary school. They are much better than those in the martial arts hall."

What Ren Yazi said was sincere, Su Xiaomu looked up at these women, all of them looked stronger than ordinary women, but most of them had no light in their eyes, the only few who dared to look at Su Xiaomu were the younger ones.

That's all, after all, they know martial arts, they are by my side, and if I am in any danger, they will not be able to run away together.

Thinking about it this way, Su Xiaomu felt a little more secure for nothing.

Strike while the iron is hot, Su Xiaomu took these newly bought maids to Xiyue Pavilion to check the business.

She is so busy these days that she almost doesn't even have time to look at the account books of Xiyue Pavilion, let alone this specific business.

At this time, Xiyue Pavilion is full of people, and many rich ladies and wives are trying the products inside.

Su Xiaomu took a closer look, and there were many familiar faces inside.

Su Xiaomu wandered around inside for a few times, and greeted the wives he knew well one by one. He was really satisfied with the business situation.

Not bad, not bad, although life is often not going well recently, it is very good to be able to make money.

There is nothing that can soothe people's hearts more than money. If there is, it must be that all the golden gold is piled up in front of Su Xiaomu's eyes.

It's rare for Su Xiaomu to be in a better mood today, so she took the initiative to sell some of her newly developed rouge powder to the guests.

There are also some makeup powders for skin care, Su Xiaomu introduced them to the ladies who came one by one.

The business is booming now, and Su Xiaomu has never stopped promoting her rouge and gouache.

At noon, when the crowd was a little less, it was time for the maids to eat, Su Xiaomu waved his big hand with great pride, and asked someone to go to Fanlou to order food, just as a gift to the girls in the shop today.

She also happens to have something good to eat, should I say it or not, Su Xiaomu is really thinking about Fanlou's assorted duck at the moment.

So Su Xiaomu and the maids waited eagerly for Fanlou to deliver the meal, but she didn't expect that instead of the meal, there was one, not good news.
