Chapter 474 Chase
Qing Shu was laying down to rest, when Xiaoer notified that the young master and young lady from Xiao Zhi County's family had arrived, Qing Shu hurriedly got up to tidy up her appearance, and then walked out of the guest room to greet her.

At this time, a beautiful lady with an oval face about sixteen or seventeen came forward with a smile, "This is sister Qingshu! My sister's surname is Xiao Mingzhi, and my father is the magistrate of this county. My sister came to pick up Qingshu at the order of her parents." Sister Shu is in the house."

Qing Shu hurriedly saluted, "Qing Shu met Sister Zhi."

The eleven or twelve-year-old girl standing next to Xiao Zhi spoke, "My name is Xiao Lan, and Sister Shu can call me Lan'er or Sixth Sister."

Qing Shu smiled and called her Lan Er, and greeted them and invited them into the guest room.Qingshu took Xiaojuan and Xiaoya with her when she went out this time. She invited the sisters Xiao Zhi and Xiaolan to sit down while urging Xiaojuan to serve tea quickly.

Xiao Zhi stopped her and said, "Little sister, don't be too busy. I quickly took my things and went back with my sister. Knowing that my sister came to the county seat, I even handed over the greeting card. My parents were very happy, saying that living in an inn is not as comfortable as their own, so we sent our brother and sister A few people have been sent over to pick up my sister."

Qing Shu smiled, "I'm sorry to bother Sister Zhi and Sister Lan, but my sister has already settled down, so there's no need to worry about it anymore. My sister will come to visit tomorrow, so there's no rush right now."

Xiao Lan hugged Qing Shu's arm in a coquettish manner, "No, no, Lan'er wants Sister Shu to live in the mansion right now. Lan'er has a lot of fun things, give them all to Shu My sister is playing."

Because of the persistence of the sisters Xiao Zhi and Xiao Lan, and the fact that there were three brothers from the Xiao family waiting outside, Qing Shu couldn't refute people's wishes, so she retired from the inn room and moved into Xiao's mansion with her entourage.To be honest, Qing Shu was a little flattered by the enthusiasm shown by the Xiao family.That night, when she went to bed to rest, she still thought about how she was so popular with the Xiao family?
In the blink of an eye the next day, after Qing Shu washed up, she followed Xiao Zhi and Xiao Lan to greet Xiao Zhixian and Mrs. Xiao before having breakfast.After that, she was invited by Xiao Zhi to talk in the room.There are many topics that two young ladies of the same age can talk about when they meet.But the two of them just met yesterday, they don't know each other, they don't know each other's preferences, so they can only talk about relatively safe topics: female celebrities.

When it was almost Chen's time, Xiaojuan entered the door and whispered something to Qingshu.

Qing Shu looked at Xiao Zhi with an apologetic face, "Sister Zhi, my sister has to come out of the house."

Xiao Zhi raised her head when she heard the words, and put down the half-embroidered purse in her hand, "My sister is not an ignorant person, my sister's situation is different from my sister's. My sister has the protection of her elders, and she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing. She only needs to embroider, grow grass, and play with calligraphy and painting every day. But my sister can't do this, the burden on my sister's shoulders is heavy, and my sister has to travel around to make ends meet for the whole house, and it's very hard work. So, my sister doesn't have to feel sorry, just get busy if you have something to do."

Qing Shuwan didn't expect Xiao Zhi to say such a thing.She thought to herself: Xiao Zhiding is a smart and sensible girl.An ordinary lady from a wealthy family would not think highly of Gu Qingshu so much, she would only despise her behavior of running around in public for her livelihood.At this moment, the smile in her eyes was a little more sincere, she and Xiao Zhi made an appointment to come back and continue to be female celebrities together, and then she came out of Xiao Zhi's residence, and took her entourage out of Xiao's residence.

The carriage stopped in front of the vermilion lacquer gate engraved with the words "Li's House" on the door plaque of West Street in the county seat.

The butler Gu, wearing dark blue silk clothes, stood respectfully on the side of the carriage and reported, "Miss, we're here."

Qing Shu, who was sitting in the car, hummed in a moderate voice, expressing that he knew.

The butler Gu gestured to the people next to him, and a servant immediately stepped forward to knock on the door.

A man's impatient voice came from inside the door, "What are you knocking for? What are you knocking for? The master doesn't see any guests, so hurry up and leave."

At this time, Gu Butler made a gesture of invitation to the middle-aged official next to him.This official was temporarily borrowed by Qing Shu from Xiaozhi County.

The middle-aged official officer understood, went up and slapped the door, "The yamen handles the case, open the door quickly, open the door, do you hear me? If you don't open the door again, just smash it open."

At this time, a crack appeared between the left and right halves of the vermilion lacquer gate.The servant inside looked out through the crack of the door, and saw the official messenger immediately.Immediately, the famous servant shouted from the left to the right, and opened the door to the width that one person could enter and exit, then squeezed out by himself, nodded and bowed and asked the official what the case was, and the case was related to him. What is the relationship with the family and so on.

The middle-aged official didn't even look at him, and pushed hard with his left and right hands over him, and the vermilion lacquered door was opened wide.Seeing the exquisite scenery in the courtyard that was different from the county town, he asked loudly with surprise on his face, "When did Master Li's house be built like this?"

The servant put a smile on his face, "Master Hui, the one that was repaired recently is the one that was repaired recently."

The middle-aged official inspected the servant, "Why hasn't this servant seen you?"

The servant hurriedly explained, "The young one is a newcomer, a newcomer."

"Ask your masters to come out and agree to invite me to drink at the end of last month. Now it's almost the middle of early May. He dares not to fart. It's unreasonable for me to wait!" He said, Step inside.

The waiter hurriedly ran to the front of the official messenger to stop him, "Master, sir, it's not that the master broke his promise, it's because the master is sick and can't get out of bed. The master will never forget what he promised to the servant. When the master recovers, the wine Naturally, I invited you." While speaking, he stuffed a piece of broken silver into the officer's hand.

The official guard put the broken silver in his sleeves and looked around inside the gate of Li's house.Suddenly he let out a huff, pointed to a rockery on the left and asked, "What are you doing with the rockery here?"

There was sweat on the servant's forehead, "Return to the messenger, the master said that this is good Fengshui." Out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone put down silently and the other two gatekeepers were swaggering in. .He was startled, and hurriedly ran to stop the officer, "Get out, get out, what do you want to do? Get out quickly." He then shouted inside, "Come on, come on, someone is breaking in. ..." With a sound of cave, he fell to the ground before he could figure out what happened.

Yingwei, who stretched out his legs and swept the man to the ground, continued to open the way for Qingshu without any change.Behind him was the butler Gu and another Yingwei, followed by Qingshu with Xiaojuan, and finally a Gufu servant and an Yingwei queen.The seven of them walked around Li's house in a familiar way as if they were in their own home.When servants or servant girls tried to stop them on the road, the Eagle Guards would take them down neatly, but they would not kill them.

Suddenly there were three cannon blasts from behind.Immediately, Qingshu was escorted by her subordinates and went straight to the back door of Li's residence.At this time, the back door of Li's house was wide open, and when Qingshu led someone out, there were two beggars squatting against the wall in the back alley.On the ground there were debris from the explosion of a firecracker, and one of the beggars was holding a flint and steel in his hand.
