Chapter 258
"There are so many people here that you can almost catch up with the vegetable market, why don't you just move to my General's Mansion." On this day, Murong Yu came again.

In recent days, Murong Yu didn't do anything except go to the fourth prince's mansion, even when he came to her, he just sat and talked to her, or stood beside her, watching her do some weird things. matter.

He didn't know what the girl was doing, so he set up a wooden platform in the backyard, with a grinding wheel on it, sat in front of the platform, and polished a piece of white crystal stone back and forth.

Gu Qingmei was wearing coarse work clothes, sleeves on her arms, and homemade gloves on her hands. She carefully polished the crystal lens. Hearing his words, she raised her eyes from the workbench and stared at him angrily, " What nonsense are you talking about? Who am I? Just live in your general's mansion?"

Murong Yu walked over with a funny face, hooked her chin and put his mouth close to steal the fragrance, "You don't know who you are to me? You still need to ask me?"

"Damn it!" Gu Qingmei's hands were covered with crystal debris. This thing is very powerful, like a knife. If it accidentally gets into the eyes, it will blind the eyes, so she didn't dare to move around, just Cursed angrily. "There are so many people in the family, let people see, what does it look like?"

"Cousin, how do you see my painting of peony flowers?" Liu Ruoqiao excitedly ran over with a painting of peony flowers that she drew herself, and wanted Gu Qingmei to give her advice. Shi Shi stood at the door and was stunned, with a red face, neither coming in nor leaving.

Murong Yu smiled and straightened up.

Gu Qingmei gave him a hard look, and then said: "Come in!"

Only then did Liu Ruoqiao stick out her little tongue playfully, ran in with her neck curled up, and showed Gu Qingmei the picture she drew.

It turned out that Gu Qingmei felt that she was very smart and could be made, so she decided to teach her to draw so that she could take over part of her work.

Murong Yu resentfully went to sit on the chair beside him, seeing her pointing at his niece in high spirits, he couldn't help but feel a little depressed, this woman really didn't see anyone in her eyes, he took it out of his busy schedule to look at her , unexpectedly so blank.

He was depressed, but saw Yun Shen came in with tea, silently put the teacup on the table beside him, then raised his eyes and smiled softly at him, "Mr. Murong, please have some tea."

"Yeah!" Murong Yu casually picked up the teacup and drank the tea ceremony. "Does your lady eat anything to replenish your body?"

Yun Shen originally wanted to retreat, but he stopped when he heard the words, and replied softly: "Sister-in-law Su will occasionally stew angelica chicken soup for Miss."

Murong Yu frowned, "Why don't you buy her some bird's nest?"

Seeing his reproachful expression, Yun Shen lowered his head timidly, and said softly: "Miss didn't give orders, slaves dare not make decisions on their own."

"Then I'm ordering now, and I will cook a bowl of bird's nest for her every afternoon from now on."

Yun Shen said aggrievedly: "Now that there is an accountant at home, the servants don't care about the expenses of the business, nor the purchases. This matter...Mr. Murong is afraid that he will have to talk to Mrs. Su and the accountant."

Murong Yu couldn't help feeling a little annoyed when she saw her evasion, "I'll get someone to bring it over later, you just ordered the kitchen to stew it on time, and serve it to her. You are the big maid next to Miss, and you don't hesitate to make food for her." , do you want her to let her worry about everything?"

"Yes!" Yun Shen finally agreed.

"Go down!" Murong Yu hurried her away impatiently.

Here, Gu Qingmei pointed out her cousin's niece's painting, sent Liu Ruoqiao off, and said, "Speaking of which, Yun Shen is not young anymore, and he is also at the age of marriage. Do you have a suitable one?"

Murong Yu said with a half-smile: "Such a beautiful daughter-in-law, my subordinates dare not want it! According to me, you'd better leave her alone, and just worry about yourself. Look at your skinny face. Not as big as my hand."

He looked at her slap-sized face with distress, and the sharp little chin had no flesh at all.

"Ah? I've lost weight again?" He never thought that hearing these words in Gu Qingmei's ears would make her ecstatic.

He looked helplessly at her jumping up and down, and couldn't help laughing: "You girl, you're so happy to say you've lost weight."

"You look good if you are thin!" She glanced at him angrily. "Don't touch me in the future, people will see it as a joke. I was bumped into by my fourth brother last time, so I feel uncomfortable seeing my fourth brother now."

"You girl, let's say you are timid. You can speak out astonishingly when you have nothing to do. You dare to say anything about husband and wife Dunlun. Say you are bold, and you are timid. Kissing you will scare you to death. .”

"How can saying and doing be the same? I'm not your wife now, so why do I always let you take advantage of it for nothing? Thank you!" She glared at him with a blushing face, then lowered her head and continued with her work.

Suifeng walked in from the outside, "Master, Uncle Li is back from the border!"

"Call him in." Murong Yu said casually.

He spends here every day during these days, and when there is news from the border, people will be sent here directly.

After a while, a dusty soldier came in with the wind. This soldier was about 40 years old and still wearing armor. When he saw Murong Yu, he folded his fists and bowed, "Master, Dazeguan, Shangyuanguan, Yuanyuan The four gates of Chengguan and Jiuyuanguan have already been negotiated. According to the old rules, at each gate, the general guarding the city was given 1000 taels of cash, borrowed [-] soldiers, and recruited [-] refugees. Come to work as a corvee, transported [-] shi of grain at each pass, and started work. We opened wine shops, cloth shops, money shops, rice shops, and clothing shops in the local area. We also bought [-] mu of wasteland in your own name. The deed is here."

As he spoke, he took out a brown paper envelope from his pocket and handed it to Murong Yu with both hands.

Murong Yu took out a few land deeds inside and looked at them, nodded and said, "Very good! I see, Meier, meet Uncle Li, this is an old man who has been with my grandmother all his life, and the 30 mu of land to the south is his. I helped my grandmother set it up. This time I specially transferred him from the south to manage the border business."

Gu Qingmei stood up gracefully, and bowed respectfully, "Uncle Li, little girl Gu Qingmei, you're being polite."

Uncle Li cupped his fists at her, and said calmly, "Miss Gu!"

Murong Yu said: "Uncle Li, you will tell her all the business at the border gate in the future, and hand over all the accounts to her."

"Hey!" Gu Qingmei couldn't help crying and laughing, "Now I help you manage the business of the cloth shop, embroidery shop, and garment shop, and you want me to manage the border business for you, do you think I'm a superman?"
