Chapter 67

"Then I'll go and see him!" Tian Xiaomeng said, and ran out.

Murong Yu shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "This girl is really a big girl."

Gu Qingmei had some doubts in her heart, but because there was a maid in the room, she didn't ask, she just picked up a new teacup brought by the maid from the kang table, picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea.

Murong Yu took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and handed it to her, then glanced at Yun Shen who was standing beside him with lowered brows, and said, "This is the girl's contract of sale, you take it away."

Gu Qingmei took the deed of sale into her hands, opened it for a look, and decided to let the girl go free, but she was also worried that if her uncle knew that she was free, and then came to ask for someone else, she would fall into the fire pit So I folded the deed of sale and put it in my handbag.

Then he looked at Murong Yu and said, "I heard you spent 500 taels to redeem this girl?"

"En!" Murong Yu nodded, looking at her with a hint of evil in his eyes.

Lu Qingmei took out her purse with heartache, took out the ingot of gold and the 100 taels of silver note that he gave herself from inside, and put them in front of him, "I only have these now, and I still owe you 160 taels. When I get the money, I'll return it to you."

"When did I say I wanted you to pay back the money?" He angrily pushed the ingot back to her, then looked at her straight in the eyes, and smiled with his lips pursed. "Didn't I say that? You embroider a handkerchief for me, and it's a thank you gift!"

"But I..." Lu Qingmei almost said that she actually doesn't know how to embroider, she just knows how to draw flowers, but she swallowed the words again, feeling very dangerous.

If this matter is revealed, and my family members know about it later, I am afraid that it will cause an uproar. The former owner of this body relied on exquisite embroidery to earn money for Fifth Brother to study.

"But what?" Seeing that she seemed to be rejecting him, he glared, stretched out his hand to grab her purse, grabbed the gold ingot on the table and stuffed it in, saying with a straight face. "If you don't agree, I'll ask someone to send her back to Yicui Pavilion?"

Hearing what he said, Yun Shen was so frightened that he quickly knelt down on the ground and begged, "My lord, I beg you, please don't send your slave to that kind of place again. If you want a handkerchief, this slave can embroider it. If you want How much, the servants will embroider for you..."

But Murong Yu shouted in a cold voice with bored face: "Get out!"

It's not easy for him to want a handkerchief, there are enough needleworkers in the family who can embroider it for him, and this girl is needed to be courteous, he just wants Gu Qingmei to embroider it.

Yun Shen was frightened by his cold drink, he never imagined that this man didn't have the slightest feeling of pity and pity, and with his appearance, he couldn't get the slightest pity from him, his heart felt a little cold and embarrassed, so he knelt down There, a little overwhelmed.

Gu Qingmei can't stand it anymore. After all, she is a modern person who has lived in modern times for 30 years. She has received an equal education and pays attention to the equality of everyone. After traveling here, she will naturally feel various discomforts, especially because she can't see that these people have nothing to do. He knelt down to others, and said: "She is a poor person, what are you doing to her? Don't you just want a handkerchief? I'll embroider it for you, but I can say first, I If the workmanship is not good, then don’t feel ugly.”

When Murong Yu saw that she agreed to give him the handkerchief, he smiled triumphantly, then stared at her delicate face, and said, "I want tricks that others don't have!"

"Yes, yes, my young master!" Gu Qingmei glared at him angrily, with a coquettish expression on the corners of her eyes and brows, which immediately made his heart flutter. heartbeat.

Gu Qingmei turned her face to see that Yun Shen was still kneeling below, no one told her to get up, and she didn't dare to get up, fearing that she would be restrained in front of Murong Yu, so she said, "Yun Shen, don't kneel down, hurry up!" Get up, go out and sit on the porch for a while, and I will remember to call you when I get home."

Only then did Yun Shen stand up, bow his head and back out.

The room was suddenly quiet, only the sound of quiet breathing.

Murong Yu took off his shoes, sat down inside, leaned comfortably against the pillow, closed his eyes, and looked very at ease.

Gu Qingmei called a little maid, "What's your name?"

The little servant girl quickly saluted and said, "Slave servant Chun'er."

"Chun'er, do you miss any books here?"

"Books?" The little maid stared wide-eyed, showing an amused expression, and shook her head. "Our young lady gets a headache when she sees a book, why are there books in the room?"

"It doesn't matter what it is, whether it's a book or an illustrated book, as long as it has pictures and words on it, it's fine. Bring me a book to relieve boredom."

The little maid thought about it seriously, and said with a smile: "This is really there, just wait, I'll get it for you!"

The little servant girl walked out of the bedroom on the east side, and after a while, she took out a book and put it on the kang table, "Miss Gu, can you read this?"

Gu Qingmei picked up the book and looked at the words "Tian Family Sword Manual" on it. She was a little dumbfounded. It was clearly a sword manual, but she didn't understand martial arts at all. She also couldn't understand the villain in human form, so she had to put it back on the table in frustration, "I can't understand this sword manual, so let your lady put it back in its original place."

The little maid took the sword manual, went into the bedroom in the east room, and put it back.

Murong Yu closed his eyes and said, "Bored?"

Gu Qingmei gave a soft "hmm", "It's just that I'm not used to being idle."

Murong Yu opened his eyes and said: "Chun'er, go and prepare pens, ink, paper and inkstones. The paper should be familiar with Xuan paper, and the pen should be thinner."

"Ah?" Chun'er raised her hand and scratched her head. "Where does our lady have a pen, ink, paper and inkstone here? The lady has already smashed it!"

Murong Yu said impatiently: "I said, why are you so stupid? Your lady doesn't have it here, so go get it from your wife!"

"Oh!" Chun'er only remembered after he reminded her that her wife is good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so she hurried out, found Jiang's yard, asked Jiang's maids for pens, ink, paper and inkstone, and took them. return.

Murong Yu hooked his chin, and said to Gu Qingmei: "Draw and play."

Gu Qingmei raised her eyes and glanced at him with a smile, "You know how to pass the time for me."

Murong Yu poured some tea into the inkstone, then picked up the ink stick to help her sharpen the ink, "If you draw more patterns, the business of my embroidery shop will be better."

Hearing him mention the embroidery business, Gu Qingmei couldn't help asking: "How much money did you earn from those fancy shapes that were sold to you?"

"The patterns of those flowers are too complicated. Now the embroiderers in the embroidery shop embroider one piece, and they only embroider two pieces of the rich and noble flowers and the tranquil lotus. They are all made into glazed table screens. One was sold to Prince Rui's Palace, all for 2000 taels of silver."
