Chapter 695 Coincidence (1)
When her eyes swept over Xiaoyu and Xiaohuan, Aunt Jian's gaze was fixed.She looked at Xiaoyu and Xiaohuan a few more times, and felt that among the maids standing in the room, these two were the best dressed, and they were probably the big maids in the mansion.She withdrew her gaze, covered her lips with the handkerchief, and asked Mother Su softly, "I have heard that Miss Gu is capable, not to mention kind-hearted, and she is also a very pretty noble lady. The second young master can win Miss Gu in times of crisis." Rescue each other, I really don't know if it is a blessing from several lifetimes of cultivation."

The mother-in-law behind Aunt Jian immediately echoed, "That's not true! After this incident, the servant feels that Miss Gu is just like the rumors, she is really a fairy-like figure."

Mother Su frowned, why did she feel that this sounded wrong!
Steward Gu didn't let Madam Su speak, and said to Master Zhu expressionlessly, "It's getting late, everyone is probably tired from the journey, please go back to the house early and rest." Then he ordered someone to guide them.

Master Zhu thanked him and took Aunt Jian away.Those who followed were led away and settled down.

Xiaojuan and Xiaohuan returned to Qingshu's side.Xiaojuan said unhappily, "Miss, this servant thinks that Aunt Jian is just putting on airs, she's so pretentious, she looks annoying."

Xiao Huan said, "The eyes are not very quiet. She didn't miss every corner in the side hall, so she looked carefully."

Qing Shu nodded, indicating that he understood. "You guys go to eat! The food will be cold at night." She, her brothers, and Mr. Lu had already eaten.After the master had dinner, it was natural for the maids to eat later.

In the guest room, when the Second Young Master Xiao heard that Aunt Jian was coming, he frowned tightly, but didn't say anything.Zhu Zhiheng in the next room naturally also got the letter, and his face became gloomy instantly.

In another guest room, three dishes and one soup were served, and Master Zhu and Aunt Jian sat down to eat together.After dinner, the servant girl removed the table, leaving the two of them talking in the room.

Aunt Jian stood behind Master Zhu, thumped Master Zhu's back and asked softly, "Master, what kind of person is Miss Gu?"

Master Zhu replied with his eyes closed in enjoyment, "It's hard to say without seeing it in person."

Aunt Jian was startled, "Master has lived in the Hou Mansion for two days, how can you say that you haven't seen him in person?"

Master Zhu rolled his eyes, "Stupid, Miss Gu is a housewife in the Hou Mansion, how can Master see her?"

"My lord, this is the truth, but the Hou's Mansion is different from other houses. There are no elders in this Hou's Mansion, and everything is decided by Miss Gu herself. Besides, who doesn't know about Miss Gu's public affairs? You are a guest from afar. , as the host, Miss Gu, how can she not entertain her?"

Regarding this point, Master Zhu actually cared a lot before.Just thinking that Miss Gu is his son's savior, he endured it.Now when his aunt mentioned it, the unhappiness he had buried in his heart suddenly came out.However, he didn't answer his aunt's words.

"Master, did you mention the sauerkraut business? If you can't see the master, it's okay to let the ancient butler pass on the message."

Master Zhu frowned, "Don't interfere with business matters." He was very interested in the sauerkraut business, and once asked Butler Gu to help pass the message to Miss Gu.Looking back, Steward Gu told him that Miss Gu refused.Although this matter cannot be forced, he really hopes that Miss Gu can provide him with sauerkraut.

"Yes, yes, I am a concubine who cares about it, and forgets taboos. Don't be angry, master." Aunt Jian's eyes flashed contempt, but her voice was gentle.She continued to beat Master Zhu's back with moderate force.

At Xu time, Master Zhu and his aunt lay down to sleep, and the oil lamp was blown out.Suddenly, Master Zhu ordered, "Before you leave tomorrow, you have to meet Miss Gu, and you must meet Miss Gu's people."

Aunt Jian didn't ask why, and immediately said yes.

There was nothing to say all night, and it was dawn on the second day in a blink of an eye.

Qing Shu was washing up when someone came from the front yard to deliver a message.Second Young Master Xiao took Young Master Zhu and left first, instead of leaving with Master Zhu.Qingshu combed her hair for a moment, with a look of disbelief, "What?"

Xiaoyu repeated, "The steward asked my younger sister to pass on the message. Second Young Master Xiao took Young Master Zhu and left first, and the coachman and only four people accompanied him."

Qing Shu asked thoughtfully, "Does Master Zhu know?"

Xiaoyu replied, "This sister didn't mention it, so I will ask this servant."

Qing Shu hummed and continued to comb her hair.

Not long after, the little fish came back. "Miss, Master Zhu didn't know what the Second Young Master Xiao had done first. After getting the letter, Master Zhu was in a hurry. He was tying up a carriage and going to chase Second Young Master Xiao and his party."

Qing Shu didn't say anything, but said in his heart: It's better to go, so that she doesn't have to chase people away.

After more than a quarter of an hour, there was another message from the front.Master Zhu took people to chase Mr. Xiao and his party, but Aunt Jian was left behind.

Qingshu heard the news, her eyes flashed, and she ordered, "Send a message to the housekeeper to let the kitchen cook Aunt Jian's breakfast first. Half a day's journey is not short, and if she eats earlier, she can go on the road earlier to meet Master Zhu." .”

Xiaoyu went out to spread the word.

Xiaojuan said with an unconvinced face, "Miss, everyone around Aunt Jian is not worry-free. Last night and this morning, they tried their best to find out about the affairs of the mansion and the young lady and master. An is kind. Let her just leave without giving her a lesson, which is too cheap for her. "

Qingshu glanced at Xiaojuan, "Silly girl, I don't know what her purpose is now, so how can I teach someone for no reason? Besides, when the situation is unknown, teaching someone on my own territory will hurt people. Keep a handle on it. Let her jump around for now, we just watch, and we will always know what she is going to do. When the matter is clear, it will not be too late to take action to teach her."

Xiaojuan scratched her head, "Miss, this servant feels so aggrieved. She knows that the other party has malicious intentions, but there is no proof, so she can only do nothing like this." Finally, she frowned and sighed.

Qing Shu didn't answer.

Xiao Huan just came in and said with a smile, "How do you know we didn't do anything? Aren't we monitoring their every move?"

Xiaojuan still had a bitter face, "I like to be straightforward, just go up and beat up. I don't like the current situation. I can't do anything, I can only wait for the other party to play tricks."

Xiao Huan shook her head, "Stop with stillness, Miss taught you this idiom a few days ago, don't tell me you forgot. Miss's countermeasure is to stop with silence."

Xiaojuan frowned and thought about it, then shook her head vigorously, "Forget it, forget it, anyway, I'm just a fool, I don't want to, I don't want to. I just need to follow the orders of the young lady."

Qing Shu smiled without saying a word.She just likes Xiaojuan's loyal and straightforward personality.

At this time, the little fish who went to pass the message came back.She also came back with a message, "Miss, then Aunt Jian is coming to see you. The housekeeper asked Miss, will you see me or not?"
