Chapter 201 The Stingy Old Aunt (5)
Liu Xinyi squinted at her clothes, and asked in surprise, "Are you rich? Are you wearing gold and silver?"

Gu Liu said with a smile: "Where did you get rich? It was Meizi who opened a shop and earned some money. She was filial to me, and even bought land to build a house for the fourth child and marry a wife. I don't care about anything now. Now, let her toss about."

Liu Xinyi's cold eyes shot at Gu Qingmei, causing goosebumps to rise on Gu Qingmei's body, and instinctively sensed that this aunt was a very calculating and unaggressive master.

"Meizi is promising! But no matter how promising this girl is, she will belong to someone else in the future!" Liu Xinyi smiled dryly, she couldn't tell whether it was envy or jealousy, and then looked at her son. "What are you doing here? Didn't you see the family members in this room? Why don't you go out and talk to your aunt and cousin!"

Li Jinzhong blushed, saluted everyone in a pedantic manner, then turned around and left.

Gu Qingmei also went out, Zhang Luo dug out a pack of pine nut candy from the gifts she was waiting for, took it into the house, opened it, grabbed a handful for each of the children, then sat aside and listened quietly. Watching my aunt and mother gossip, and keenly aware that my old aunt seems to be absent, presumably he is reluctant to close the grocery store, so he went to support the business.

After a while, Gu Qingmei's uncle also came. Gu Qingmei's uncle's name was Liu Haichao, who was also a scholar. After repeated trials, he gave up and found a job in an academy in the city.Because Gu Qingyang studied in that academy, he could see him often.

Contrary to Liu Hai's super thin and tall figure, Gu Qingmei's eldest aunt Liu Hushi is a fat man, but it can be vaguely seen from her eyebrows and eyes that she was also a great beauty back then, but she is just blessed now.

Everyone saluted again, and after saying a few words, Liu Haichao turned around and left. He is a sour literati who thinks that men and women are different. This promised to speak, but he went out to find two nephews and asked them about their homework.

Gu Qingmei's eldest aunt, Liu Hushi, was a person who couldn't understand what she said, but only knew how to grin and laugh, she looked a bit silly.

Liu Hushi was accompanied by a little girl about thirteen or fourteen years old, she was not tall, she was wearing a cherry red short jacket, and the silk ribbon on her chest was tied with a big bow.She wore a double-snail bun on her head, a goose-yellow hair tie, and long tassels hanging down from the side of her face.The appearance is also very beautiful, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, small nose and small mouth, but it is a pity that the skin is a little dark.

She walked to Gu Qingmei's side, took out a pink purse from her sleeve and handed it to her, "Third Cousin, this is the purse I embroidered by myself, and it's for you."

"Thank you!" Gu Qingmei was not polite, and reached out to take it.

Gu Qingyun at the side saw it and deliberately teased her, "Sister Qiao, why did you only give your third cousin a purse, neither your first cousin nor I have one?"

Liu Ruoqiao is the daughter of Gu Qingmei's cousin Liu Wanqing, she smiled shyly when she heard this, "Because my third cousin taught me to embroider the purse, so I heard that my second aunt was here today, so I just took one. I didn't know that the first cousin and the second cousin were here too, so don't be offended by the second cousin, I'll go home and get two more later."

Gu Qingyun was just teasing her, so he couldn't help laughing and said: "You don't need to take it anymore, it's better to keep this purse for your dowry in the future."

Liu Ruoqiao blushed immediately, twisted her body and said, "Second Cousin is so annoying, she just makes fun of her."

Seeing that she spoke and behaved very gracefully, Gu Qingmei couldn't help liking her very much, so she took her hand and asked her what her name was and how old she was.

Liu Ruoqiao said in surprise: "I heard that my third cousin got hurt on her head and no longer recognizes her. Could it be true?"

Lu Qingmei nodded, "Of course it's true!"

Liu Ruoqiao couldn't help asking with concern: "Is that all right? Does the head still hurt?"

Gu Qingmei smiled and said, "Of course it's already healed, otherwise how could it be possible to come here for a visit?"

Only then did Liu Ruoqiao introduce her identity, then put her mouth next to Gu Qingmei's ear, and whispered: "Since my third cousin taught me how to embroider, I have secretly saved more than twenty taels of money from my private house in the past two years. It's over."

As he said that, he couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Although she is Liu Wanqing's daughter, Liu Wanqing is not a big family after all, but a small businessman. There are several wives and concubines in the family, and the housework is extremely chaotic. Just give the wives and concubines a few pocket money.

As for his daughter, he has always felt that anyway, since her daughter doesn't leave the house, she doesn't need to spend money if she doesn't leave home, so the only daughter usually doesn't have any private money.

But this girl is a scheming girl, worried that one day in the future, she will meet someone who is not good, and when she meets a man like her father, she will become like her mother and aunts. It is better to be self-reliant than to live on a monthly basis of money.

But her mother was a vulgar woman, and her grandmother was only proficient in needlework, and knew nothing about the delicate work of embroidery, so during the festivals, when Gu Qingmei followed Gu Liushi back to her mother's house, she begged Gu Qingmei to teach her how to embroider.

The original owner of this body was a gentle and kind person. He not only taught her, but also bought her needlework and silk satin materials with money.

She didn't embroider other things, she just concentrated on embroidering the purse, and when she embroidered some, she sent the little maid to secretly take it out and sell it to Xipu.

Because the bride gets married, in addition to the wedding dress, red hijab and handkerchief, the most commonly used is the auspicious purse, especially the rich family, usually buy dozens of purses in one go, filled with money , so that the bride can give the younger generation a meeting gift when she recognizes her relatives.

In the past two years, little by little, he has actually accumulated a little wealth.

"You girl is really capable!" Gu Qingmei looked at her and said softly. "I'm going to the capital to open a shop after the new year, and I intend to take you to be my helper, but I don't know if you are reluctant to leave home?"

Hearing this, Liu Ruoqiao's eyes widened in surprise, and a bright light appeared on her slightly dark face, "Third Cousin really wants to take me to the capital?"

"Of course it's true. I don't have many people around me. If I have more people, I can have more helpers. If you want, I'll tell your father later."

Liu Ruoqiao nodded hurriedly, "I am willing!"

"In that case, then I'll talk to your father when I turn around." Gu Qingmei really likes this child, he behaves generously, and has a good reason for advancing and retreating. If he can find a good family for her, he must be the best candidate to be the mistress.

But I saw Liu Haiyuan went to the grocery store, found Mrs. Wang and said, "The elder sister and the second sister are here today, so let the shop rest for a day, hurry up and cook!"
