Chapter 262 Shocked
Hu Xueyan looked at the small courtyard in front of her with surprise in her eyes: "Xiaojie, do you live here? Yes, it looks good."

Shopkeeper Hu was a little dissatisfied: "In the future, there will definitely be more time to go in and out of Fucheng. This place is not close to Fucheng, so we spend too much time on the road."

"It's not far, a carriage can arrive in a quarter of an hour." Xiaojie explained: "This place is very close to the main street, not very far."

Who would have thought that there is such a quiet place not far from Fucheng.

A quarter of an hour is okay, it's not too far away.

A quarter of an hour in a carriage, and almost two quarters of an hour on foot, thinking about it this way, it's not close.

"Shopkeeper Hu, Xueyan, please stay here with me this time. After everything about the restaurant is finalized, you can find another place to live."

"The place we live in doesn't need to be too big, as long as it is close to the restaurant. In this case, if there is something wrong with the restaurant, we will arrive in time."

Hu Xueyan couldn't wait to go to the dessert shop: "Xiaojie, why don't we go there now."

"Let's go there after eating first." Shen Yuhua poked her head out.

As soon as she got off the carriage, she got into the kitchen. The dishes are almost ready now, and they will be cooking soon.

"Huahua's movements are neat. Huahua, why don't you live with me in the future, and we two sisters also have companions." Hu Xueyan joked.

"As long as Sister Hu doesn't dislike her, I have no objections. Huahua is a person without a home, so it doesn't matter where she lives." Shen Yuhua's home is in the Yang Mansion.

But Yang Fu thought she was dead and threw her out.

Without her in the Yang Mansion, it is impossible for her to return to the Yang Mansion.

"Don't worry, as long as you work hard, everything will be fine." Hu Xueyan also knew about Huahua's matter.

She is the concubine's daughter of Yang's mansion, she was not treated well when she was young, and she lived a life of beating and scolding, because she met Xiaojie, she was able to come out of Yang's mansion.

If she hadn't met Xiaojie, she might really have died.

Shen Yuhua's craftsmanship is still very good.Seeing her skill, Shopkeeper Hu decided to send her to the kitchen.

"Father, I want her to follow me, but you want her to follow you. This is not stealing from me."

"Then ask her herself." Of course shopkeeper Hu couldn't compete with his daughter.

After hearing what the two said, Shen Yuhua had a smile on her face: "Uncle Hu, can I learn how to cook from you?"

Shen Yuhua likes to cook, this is because she often helped in the kitchen when she was young.

Hearing Shen Yuhua's words, Hu Xueyan was a little sad: "Huahua, don't you want to come with me?"

"Sister, it's not that I don't want to follow you, it's that the dessert shop is easy to meet people from the Yang family, so I'm not too daring."

"It depends on your future." Hearing her words, Hu Xueyan felt a little distressed.She had felt this way before.

Because she was afraid that she would run into Chen Guangshi when she went out and cause unnecessary troubles, she did not leave home once for more than half a year.

"That's right, no one pays attention to places like the back kitchen. Even if people from the Yang family come to eat in the store, it is impossible to pay attention to the helpers in the back kitchen. The little girl is still very clear-headed."

Whether it's a restaurant or a dessert shop, the scale and area are several times that of a small county town.

Shopkeeper Hu looked at the shop in front of him, unable to move his eyes for a long time.

In the past, he was also a person with lofty aspirations, but he was smoothed out by the water chestnut of life.

Back then, his goal was to open the restaurant to Fucheng or the capital, and later on, he just wanted to spend his life with his family in peace.

"The recruitment notice has already been posted, whoever you want, you can choose carefully when you turn around to Shopkeeper Hu."

After going to the restaurant, the group went to the dessert shop.

As soon as they reached the river, the cool breeze blew their dresses.

Looking at the flat green water on the river, the floating boats, and the literati ladies passing by from time to time, it's like entering another world.

Hu Xueyan liked this place very much when she saw it: "Xiaojie, I like this place, it's so beautiful."

No wonder literati love to run to this place, it is indeed poetic and elegant enough.

"It's not the most lively place during the day, it's only lively at night. After dinner at night, let's come and have a look, and you'll find that it's completely different from the daytime."

It is quiet during the day, but it is undoubtedly lively at night.

All kinds of lanterns, drinking and composing poems, romantic and romantic.

"When you put it this way, I'm really looking forward to what it will look like at night."

"Has Ji Jingxian come to Fucheng yet?"

Speaking of Ji Jingxian, Hu Xueyan blushed: "He came over a few days ago. He said that when I come over, go to Wenhua College to find him."

"Oh, that's not far from here." Gu Yunjie had heard of this academy, the No. [-] academy in Fucheng, and ordinary people couldn't get in.Those who can enter are all excellent.

Jing Jingxian's ability to go in shows that there is no problem with his talent.

Gu Yunjie winked at her: "How about I accompany you to find him later."

"Okay."

After Ji Jingxian went to the house to propose marriage last time, her marriage contract with Ji Jingxian was finalized.She is now Ji Jingxian's fiancée, even if she goes to him openly, it is feasible.

"Okay, we'll go in a while."

Shopkeeper Hu didn't go with them, saying that he had to go back to the restaurant to have a look.As soon as he left, he called Shen Yuhua away too.

As for Chuchu, she naturally drove ahead.

Xiaojie hugged Lingbao, Lingbao was no longer curious about the street scene outside, and nestled quietly in her mother's arms.

"This is the Cultural Academy." After a while, the carriage stopped.

Gu Yunjie glanced out.

The gate of the academy looked quite impressive, and there was an old man watching from the side of the gate.

Hu Xueyan got out of the carriage and stood outside for a while before walking towards the old man.

"Hello, old man. I want to find Ji Jingxian, can you call me?"

The old man has gray hair, but his eyes are very energetic.

Just as he was about to say something, he saw a jug of wine and some biscuits in his arms: "Uncle, I am her fiancée, I have something to ask him, please pass it on."

The old man looked at the wine and biscuits, his eyes lit up, but he didn't show it on his face, he stood up slowly: "You wait here for a while, I'll go in and ask for you."

He put the wine and biscuits in his arms, and moved slowly.

Hu Xueyan watched him go in, and saw him come out after a while.

"Girl, just wait here for a quarter of an hour, and come out when he finishes class."

"Thank you, uncle." Hu Xueyan thanked the old man, turned and returned to the carriage.

Gu Yunjie kept watching from the carriage, watching her come over, and asked with a smile: "How is it?"

"The uncle at the gate helped pass the message, saying that it will come out in a quarter of an hour. Let's wait by the side for a while."

"How do you know about the old man's wedding wine and biscuits?"

"I didn't know, he said it all. He said that the old man guarding the gate is a nice man, but he likes to drink wine and eat some biscuits. If there is wine and biscuits, he will definitely pass it on to me."

"He's quite thoughtful. He even told you this in case you didn't come to him or couldn't find him."

Hu Xueyan lowered her head shyly.

After a quarter of an hour, a scholar in a silver gown came out.The scholar was gentle, with the academy's emblem embroidered on his cuffs, he greeted the old man shallowly, and the old man pointed to the carriage beside him.

The scholar walked towards the carriage.

Hu Xueyan watched him approaching, her heart pounding.

There is only one thought in my mind, he looks really good in hospital uniform.

Ji Jingxian walked to the carriage and chatted with Chu Chu first.

Hu Xueyan got off the carriage, blushed and called out, "Jingxian."

Ji Jingxian's eyes lit up when he saw Hu Xueyan, and saw Gu Yunjie and Lingbao behind Hu Xueyan, and made a song.

Gu Yunjie saw that the two of them had abnormal blushes on their faces, so she hurriedly dragged Chu Chushuo around to leave space for the two of them.

Lingbao glanced back and smiled at Gu Yunjie: "Aunt Hu's face is so red, is she shy?"

"Ghost spirit." Gu Yunjie listened to her words, a little funny.

"Mother, what are you doing here?"

"It is a place for scholars to study. In the future, they will obtain greater fame and serve the court."

"Are there any girls in there?"

Gu Yunjie shook her head.

Lingbao felt a little regretful: "Why don't women read it? Is it true that women can't read it as well as men?"

"Ask your father about this. Your father is more knowledgeable, so he can answer." She has received education such as equality between men and women, so it is really difficult for her to answer this question.

Is it possible to tell my daughter that men and women are destined to be unequal, and it can be seen from all sides.Because here, the requirements for women are particularly harsh, and it is impossible to participate in the imperial examination.

Chu Chu didn't answer directly, but just touched Lingbao's little grip: "If you want to know, follow Dad to read a few more words in the future, and when you know more words, you will naturally know the reason."

"Then I don't want to know." Lingbao tilted his head, no longer interested in this question.

Gu Yunjie couldn't laugh or cry.

Little rascal, she thought about this question for a long time.As a result, Lingbao didn't want an answer because of what his father said.

……

"Jingxian, Xiaojie said that the shop here is about to enter the process of opening, let me come and have a look."

"Xueyan, I'm very happy. We will be able to see each other often in the future." When Ji Jingxian heard the old man say that Xueyan came to look for him outside, his heart almost jumped out.

The last time Xueyan told him that she was going to live in Fucheng, he was not sure whether Xueyan's plan had changed.

Now that the plan has not changed, he is the happiest.

The two stood together and talked for a while. Knowing that Ji Jingxian still had classes for a while, they hurriedly pushed Ji Jingxian back: "You go back first, and I will come to see you when Dad and I stabilize."

Ji Jingxian didn't want to wait any longer, and whispered to Hu Xueyan: "I can rest for half a day in the afternoon, where do you live now, I will find you."

"Do you have time tonight?"

"Naturally there is."

"Don't ask for leave in the afternoon. In the evening, Xiaojie and I will go to the riverside to see the night scene. You should come with me."

"Okay." After receiving the approval letter, Ji Jingxian turned around and went back to the academy.

Hu Xueyan waved at him, watching his figure go in with tears in her eyes.

She once thought that if she followed Chen Guangshi, it would be fine, so that her father would not be worried, and she would not have to worry that her father would be embarrassed by Chen Guangshi.

But Dad said that she was not allowed to have such thoughts.A man like Chen Guangshi will not be contented. Marrying such a man will ruin his life.

Therefore, he listened to his father's words, and never stepped out of the gate, but unexpectedly, he waited for Jingxian.

Later, he met Xiaojie again and helped her resolve the matter of Chen Guangshi.

She thought, God still treats her kindly.

……

In the evening, Gu Yunjie and Hu Xueyan had already found a small restaurant by the river, and not long after they arrived, Chu Chu picked up Ji Jingxian.

Several people ordered a few side dishes.

After dinner, it was natural that Ji Jingxian and Hu Xueyan were in a group, and Chu Chu's family was playing by the river.

For Jiang Bian, Xiaojie has a shadow: "The experience of the previous two visits was not very good, and nothing will happen this time."

"Mother, I don't feel very good." As soon as Gu Yunjie finished speaking, she heard Lingbao say something.

Gu Yunjie and Chu Chu looked at each other, quickly hugged Lingbao to a corner, and asked softly, "Lingbao, what's the matter? What do you feel?"

Lingbao's feeling has never been wrong, as long as Lingbao's feeling is wrong, something big will happen.

So when the husband and wife heard Lingbao's words, they were shocked.

Lingbao frowned slightly, pressed his stomach with his small hands, and said in a low voice: "Mother, my stomach hurts a little, and I feel like I'm about to poop. Take me to poop."

Chu Chu's mouth twitched.

Gu Yunjie's face turned black.

Seeing that she was really uncomfortable, she carried Ling Bao to her own shop.Although the shop is not open yet, the decoration and so on are almost done.However, the lanterns at night have not been hung up yet, so it looks rather dark.

There were still people working inside, and when they saw that it was the boss coming, they didn't ask much.

Xiaojie was holding Lingbao to solve her internal emergency, and was about to come out, when she saw a figure through the window, staring at the place outside.

After Gu Yunjie took Lingbao out, she told Chu Chu about it.

After a while, I saw Chu Chu carrying that person to her front.

"Hero, spare me. I'm not a thief, nor a bad guy. You let me go first."

The man in front of him was wearing baggy clothes and had a small body. It looked like a child stealing an adult's clothes.

"Then tell me, what are you doing staring at that shop?" Chu Chu looked at him coldly.

"My name is Brother Ming." The child looked down and lowered his head: "I heard that this place is recruiting people, so come and have a look."

"Do you want to work inside?"

The boy nodded.

"If you want to find something to do, come during the day. If you come at night, who will use you." At night, there are not many people in the shop.

"Yes, then I'll come over tomorrow." The boy was about to leave when Chu Chuti brought him back: "Tell me, who made you stare here?"

The boy swallowed, not wanting to say what to do.

"Say." Chu Chu lost her patience.

The boy was terrified: "It was Shopkeeper Mo who asked me to come here."

Gu Yunjie and Chu Chu looked at each other: "Master Mo?"

Brother Ming nodded: "If I say so, will you let me go?"

"See what you said?"

The boy pointed to a small tavern with a good business in front: "The shopkeeper Mo is the Jiang family of that tavern. She said that this shop seems to have a strong background, let me keep an eye on it and see what we are selling. Shopkeeper Mo is a very nice person, she just wanted to know when your shop will open and what it sells, she has no other malicious intentions."

Gu Yunjie looked over and saw that the tavern was the one where she had dinner with Huang Mengrou last time. Later, she was forced to go home early because she met someone from the government to arrest the assassin.

"Then you go back and tell her that we sell desserts and snacks, as well as some wine. She can come and have a look on the opening day."

Colleagues are enemies.

It is normal for the other party to ask about them curiously.

Seeing that they let him go so easily, Brother Ming ran away quickly, not daring to stay longer.

"He has a problem." Seeing that Chu Chu was staring at her, Xiao Jie asked.

Chu Chu raised the corners of her lips shallowly, took the Lingbao, and walked forward holding Xiaojie with one hand: "It's hard to say now, maybe I'm thinking too much."

Zhu Da and Zhu San didn't arrange to live in the yard, but directly arranged to live in the backyard of the restaurant.

Hu Xueyan's father and daughter and Shen Yuhua lived with them in the small courtyard for the time being.

With more people, some things progress faster.

The opening time of both sides has also been set.

In the following time, the group was very busy, spending most of the day in the store until Mrs. Qi came to the door.

"Miss Gu, if I hadn't heard that you were back, I would have thought you were still in your hometown. You came here, and you didn't bring your doll to the house to play. I miss her even more." As for Lingbao, Mrs. Qi didn't care either. Strange, pinched Lingbao's chubby little face.

"It's not too much, and I didn't take care of it." Gu Yunjie was indeed too busy in the past few days, and had no time to think about other things: "I'll go back home with you in a while, and see if Mr. Qi has recovered."

"That's why I came here." Mrs. Qi looked around and whispered: "There is a distinguished guest in my house, and he was seriously injured. My general asked you to come over and invite you to come over. Look..."

Their family does not doubt Miss Gu's ability now.

The man was so seriously injured that ordinary people had no choice but to come over and ask Gu Yunjie to go after much deliberation.

Gu Yunjie didn't ask the person's identity, and nodded lightly: "Okay, I'll go with you."

Gu Yunjie followed Mrs. Qi to the Qi mansion.

Without saying too much, Mrs. Qi took Gu Yunjie directly to a small courtyard inside.

General Qi was inside, with a worried expression on his face. When he saw Gu Yunjie behind Mrs. Qi, the sadness on his face disappeared halfway in an instant: "Miss Gu, this is my righteous brother. He was killed by a villain and was seriously injured. Please take a look."

Lying on the bed was a middle-aged man with dark skin and a thick beard.

Gu Yunjie didn't have time to look at his appearance carefully, she only cared about where he was hurt.

There were stab wounds on the waist, chest, and back.

The most dangerous thing is the chest, with a sword stuck in it, which is very dangerous to use.

She took out a set of silver needles to seal the opponent's bleeding point, and then used ingenuity to pull out the sword from his chest.

Gu Yunjie immediately gave him another hemostatic medicine.

After all this was done, she began to clean the wound.

General Qi and his wife have been watching Gu Yunjie's movements from the sidelines, seeing her movements are almost flowing, without the slightest hesitation, and their eyes are full of shock.

They don't know how the medical sage heals diseases and saves people, but the girl Gu in front of them gives them a sense of seeing a god reborn.
