Chapter 543: Mother and son had a falling out?

Chapter 543: Mother and son have a falling out?

 Mrs. Qi from the Qi family in Fucheng sent her a message?

But she didn’t know Mrs. Qi at all. Even if she sold the spices to Mr. Qi, the two families were only in a cooperative relationship. There was also a Li family who had harmed Gu Daya’s family, and the Li family’s biggest backer was this person. Mrs. Qi.

She thanked the concierge, took the post and asked, "When did the Qi family send the post?"

The concierge replied: "Not long ago, just two-quarters of an hour ago, a woman came. Judging from her behavior, she should be someone close to Mrs. Qi."

 The servants of the concierge who greet and **** people have developed a pair of sharp eyes. From their words and deeds, they can tell whether the person is walking in the outer courtyard or working as an errand in the inner house.

 Gu Jinli nodded and said, "I understand, thank you for your hard work."

After saying this, he gave the porter a piece of silver.

 The concierge did not refuse and took it with a smile, feeling very satisfied with the Gu family. Although the Gu family is from the countryside, they are not stingy in their actions and will give them some rewards as compensation for their hard work.

 Old Uncle Cheng saw me at the side and said again: "Miss Gu, you don't need to give me any more reward. If the master and madam find out, the old slave will be blamed."

This girl from the Gu family is the savior of their cousin. The master and his wife have specifically told her that no matter how long the Gu family and his family will stay, they must take good care of her and cannot neglect it.

Gu Jinli smiled and said, "You should get paid for your work."

The Jiang family allowed them to stay here out of affection. They could not regard themselves as their masters. When they used other people's servants, they had to give them some money.

"Is this the villa of Wei's family in Jiang County, Tianfu County?" A servant in gray shorts and brown asked standing at the doorstep of Jiang's house. Seeing so many people talking around the door, he murmured in his heart. , wondering if I’m looking in the wrong place?

After the concierge bowed his hand to Gu Jinli, he turned around and took a few steps towards the man and said, "This is the villa of the Wei family in Jiang County, Tianfu County. Are you an errand at that house? What are you doing at Jiang's house?"

The servant smiled and said: "The younger one is a servant of the Qi Mansion. On the orders of the second master of the family, he came to post a post for Mr. Gu and the girl of the Gu family in Jiang's house."

He then explained: "The second master of the family was very happy when he learned that the Gu family had come to Fucheng. He wanted to be a host and treat the Gu family to a banquet."

 After saying that, he went up the steps and handed the post over.

Gu Jinli smiled, what's going on with the Qi family? Not long after Mrs. Qi's post arrived, Mr. Qi's post came again. What happened? Did the mother and son break up or separate?

The concierge was a seasoned person. He did not say that the group of people in front of the door included the Gu family. Instead, he took the post and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will definitely forward the post to the old man of the Gu family."

After hearing this, the servants of the Qi family thanked the concierge of the Jiang family, gave him a red envelope as usual, and turned around and left.

 The concierge gave the post to Gu Jinli.

After Gu Jinli accepted it, he said to Old Uncle Cheng, "Can you please take Ah Piao and the others down to stay? Sister Li and Lianzi are still sick. We need to make a place for them to rest, recuperate, and prepare medicine."

Uncle Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Miss Gu, I will take them to resettle them right now."

 Old Uncle Cheng is a prudent and experienced man. As early as in the morning when Gu Jinli and others went out to pick up people, he had already asked the servants in the house to clean the two side courtyards. Now that everything was packed, he took the people there directly. There was a courtyard for boys and a courtyard for girls, and everything was settled.

Grandpa San looked at the two posts in Gu Jinli's hand and asked, "Xiaoyu, what's written on the posts?"

Gu Jinli opened the post, looked at it, and said: "Mrs. Qi asked us to come over to the house for a chat in the afternoon. Mr. Qi said that he had learned that we were coming and asked us to come over tomorrow. He wanted to make something and treat us to a meal. Thank you to our workshop Sell ​​him spices." The third grandfather heard this anxiously: "Hey, it's almost noon now, and it will be afternoon in a few hours. You have to go and pack quickly, otherwise you will be late."

Gu Jinli didn’t want to go: “I won’t go.”

"Why?" Third Grandpa said: "The Qi family is a wealthy family in the city, and Mrs. Qi is an old lady with a royal title. She is a noble person. She invites us to come over because she thinks highly of us. Wouldn't it be ugly if we don't go?"

 They are farmers, it is disrespectful to shame Mrs. Gaoming.

Gu Jinli said: "Third Grandpa, Mrs. Qi sent us this post. It is clear that she looks down on us. Why should we accept the anger?"

The third grandfather was shocked: "What, what did you say?"

Gu Daya's expression turned ugly ever since he learned that Mrs. Qi had invited them to come over for a chat. Hearing this, he explained: "Third uncle, big families always treat guests, and they send them at least one day in advance. They don't just post them." If you ask someone to go to a banquet in an hour, you are not inviting someone to a banquet, you are ordering someone."

Third Grandpa is a farmer. Although he has been to Fucheng to do odd jobs, he has never eaten at a rich family's table in his life. He doesn't understand the twists and turns inside. Hearing this, his beard trembled with anger. He patted the table and said, "Then don't go, it's not like our family has nothing to eat!"

He wanted Xiaoyu to go to the banquet, but he thought that if the child could marry a royal wife, he would be favored by others and find a good family. Unexpectedly, this old lady of the Qi family had a very dark heart. On the surface, she was inviting them to a feast, but in fact, she was bullying them.

Gu Jinli smiled and comforted the third grandfather: "Don't be angry. We don't rely on the Qi family now. We have the Zheng family to keep up with the official family. Moreover, the eldest brother will take the imperial examination in the future. There will be a day when he will get ahead. We will not be looked down upon by others all our lives." "

After hearing this, Third Grandpa finally felt better. He pointed to Mr. Qi’s post and asked, “Shall we go to Mr. Qi’s appointment tomorrow?”

"No." Gu Jinli said simply: "The Qi family is just a cooperative relationship with us, just doing business. There is no need to make it so complicated. And we can not sell spices to the Qi family at any time. We don't lack the Qi family as a customer. .”

The Zheng family and the Guan family must have wanted to buy her spices.

 And she also wanted to take the opportunity to warn Mrs. Qi not to use the quarrel in the back house to deal with her. She doesn't like the women in the back house. If she sells spices, is she responsible for playing with them in the house fight? But pull it down.

Grandpa San knew that Gu Jinli had an idea. Hearing this, he said nothing more. He only said: "If you encounter anything, just tell us, or tell Sanlang, he can help you."

Qin Sanlang said: "Don't worry, Third Grandpa, I will protect Xiaoyu."

The Third Grandpa nodded when he heard this. Among the people who came to Fucheng, the one he felt most at ease with was Sanlang.

After Gu Jinli put down the post, he stood up and said to Qin Sanlang: "Brother Qin, let's go to Guanya and ask Aunt Lu to help get the slave registration for Ah Piao and the others."

"Okay." Qin Sanlang nodded, called Ah Piao, Ah Duo, Qiu Lang, Danian and Ah Shi, and went out to Guanya together.

The third grandpa was frightened by what happened last night and no longer worried about Gu Jinli going out, so he asked Gu Daya to follow him.

When Aunt Lu saw them coming again, she hurriedly came up to them with a smile and asked, "Little guest, you are here, are you here to buy someone else?"

He then asked cautiously: "Is there something wrong with the person who bought it back?"

 Are you here to return the goods?
