Chapter 44: Fiancées meet for the first time
In the backyard of He's Pharmacy, there is a tall locust tree whose green leaves have fallen in winter.
The scorching sun fell, and the ground was soft and golden.
Simu cuts medicine in the yard.
Traditional Chinese medicine has a special fragrance, which enters the spleen and lungs, soothing the heart.
He has been in He's house for more than four months, and the small dilapidated houses and courtyards, with a faint medicinal fragrance, give him peace.
Simu wanted to live for a long time.
The male owner of the He's pharmacy is called He Mengde, and the female owner is Mu Sanniang. There are five innocent and innocent children. Although Si Mu is a buddy, the owner never scolds him.
They treat him equally.
This is an equality that is hard to come across in Simu's life. He was tired of being held on a high platform, surrounded by subordinate adjutants.
A relative came to the He family. It was a young girl. Mu Sanniang called her Qingzhou.
Simu knew that her name was Gu Qingzhou.
Because of her young age, Simu couldn't judge whether Gu Qingzhou was ugly or beautiful. In general, she only thought that she was very small, so young that she was similar to the host's thirteen-year-old daughter, He Wei, and she couldn't be called a "woman".
Gu Qingzhou has been here several times, and Simu was a little wary of her at first, afraid that she was found by the Si family, and then he relaxed his vigilance.
The more familiar people are, the more they will ignore her existence.
When Gu Qingzhou came back, Simu couldn't see her at all, and his eyes wouldn't stay on people who didn't matter.
And Gu Qingzhou often looks at Sim. Just like a few days ago, after Gu Qingzhou came, he peeked at Si Mu from behind the window, Si Mu knew it.
There are really too many girls who like Simu, so much that Simu is numb, neither happy nor disgusted, it is a very common thing.
Gu Qingzhou is air to Simu, and he will never see her existence.
But this afternoon, in the light medicinal fragrance, he saw his mother and Gu Qingzhou behind his mother.
Si Mu was stunned, hugged tightly by his mother, crying and shouting "Mu'er", but he was lost in thought, his eyes went over his mother's thin shoulder and fell on Gu Qingzhou.
This girl, she betrayed him!
What benefits did the Si family give her to make her a traitor?
Simu remembered that before Gu Qingzhou hid behind the window to look at Simu, there was indeed a flash of the spotlight.
He thought at the time that Gu Qingzhou looked very poor, it was impossible to have a camera, and the He family didn't have it, it was his own illusion.
Now it seems that Gu Qingzhou did secretly photograph him.
For the first time, Simu saw Gu Qingzhou's eyebrows clearly. Those big and bright eyes seemed to be full of philistines and calculations. It turns out that such a small child should be clean and pure, but she is a vulgar fan!
He smiled coldly and looked at her.
Gu Qingzhou smiled, as if he didn't see his sneer and didn't seem to care.
Simu's eyes became colder.
Mrs. Si gave the He family twenty dollars, thanked them for taking care of Si Mu, and took Si Mu away.
The He family was grateful to Dade and escorted Sim out of the house.
He Mengde, the master of the He family, also bowed and apologized: "I don't know if it's the young marshal. If you offend you, don't blame the madam, don't blame the young marshal!"
The air is very cold, and Simu's heart is even colder. Even if he returns to the He family again, the He family will not treat him as before.
His peaceful place was broken by Gu Qingzhou.
Simu rode home in the car, looking at the gradually falling night outside the car window. In the darkness, the lights were lit up in rows, but his heart sank little by little.
With helplessness and unwillingness, he returned to the Overseer's Mansion, where he had been away for five years.
"Second brother!" Si Qiongzhi was surprised and delighted, and threw himself on top of him.
Simu, who was expressionless all the way, smiled faintly at this time and hugged his sister.
After not seeing him for five years, Si Qiongzhi has grown from a little girl to the slim and beautiful girl she is today.
When the brothers and sisters met, Si Qiongzhi took Si Mu's hand and asked questions, almost always answering questions by himself, because Si Mu was speechless.
Mrs. Si had tears in her eyes.
Si Xingpei is not at home, and Si Xingpei has another restaurant. Except for important events, he hardly shows up in the governor's mansion. Mrs. Si arranged a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust, and there were only their mother and son.
Gu Qingzhou doesn't know how the Si family is, nor is he interested.
Today, the young marshal hates her to death, and it will be sooner or later that she will retire.
Gu Qingzhou doesn't care.
After getting to know Gu Guizhang and the Gu family slowly, Gu Qingzhou became more confident and less reliant on the commander-in-chief.
Besides, Gu Qingzhou is Mrs. Si's benefactor. If Mrs. Si quits her relatives, Mrs. Si will feel sorry for Gu Qingzhou and hurt her even more.
With Mrs. Si as the backing, Gu Qingzhou also has a solid backer.
"Young Marshal, are you worth two gold bars, are you noble or cheap?" Gu Qingzhou murmured, thinking it was funny.
She should have sold Sim for a higher price, but it happened suddenly. Now that two gold bars have been sold to him, Gu Qingzhou has no regrets.
It's not a long-term plan for Sim to hide in He's house.
On the same day, Si Xingpei told Gu Qingzhou that Simu was dumb due to illness, and Gu Qingzhou thought of Amu, the guy in He's pharmacy.
When Gu Qingzhou saw Amu for the first time, he felt a lot like a commander. His eyes and temperament are exactly the same as those of the commander-in-chief.
He and Si Xingpei are not the same mother, with thin lips and high nose, but they are similar to their father.
Knowing this situation, Gu Qingzhou thought to himself, "If the second son of the Yuecheng warden, if a gang member or a hostile force finds him in advance, Si Mu may be able to escape, but the He family is afraid that it will be doomed."
If they are found by the Si family, the chief inspector or Mrs. Si will reward the He family when they are in a good mood.
If it is very unfortunate and is found by the enemies of the Si family, everyone in the He family will only be killed.
After thinking about it, Gu Qingzhou felt that Simu couldn't stay in He's house. He may like the He family, but he will bring danger to the He family invisibly.
It's not that Simu didn't think about it, it's just that he was conceited that he could protect the He family, so he didn't worry and lived with peace of mind.
Gu Qingzhou had to worry.
The He family is more important to Gu Qingzhou. She doesn't have the confidence of Si Mu, so she can't watch Si Mu pull the He family into the abyss.
So, Gu Qingzhou has been thinking about what price to sell Si Mu's news to Mrs. Si.
Now the price is not too good, but the opportunity is good, Gu Qingzhou shot.
Taking the documents Mrs. Si gave her, Gu Qingzhou returned to Gu's mansion.
"So soon?" Gu Guizhang was surprised and delighted, and at the same time sighed in his heart, it's great to have the right!
It's a pity that I'm not a soldier, otherwise, it would be better than now to go to the military government to do some errands.
"Yeah, this is the Madam who went out in person and went to the church school. It was done." Gu Qingzhou smiled. "The two are relatives. We took the money again, and Madam Si was embarrassed to delay."
Gu Guizhang breathed a sigh of relief, although the two gold bars hurt, but things went so smoothly, Gu Guizhang's reluctance finally eased.
"Dad, take a look, can I go to school?" Gu Qingzhou asked.
"You haven't seen it yet?" Gu Guizhang smiled.
"Daddy didn't look, I dare not look." Gu Qingzhou said.
Gu Guizhang nodded in satisfaction.
Gu Qingzhou respected his father in small details, which made Gu Guizhang like her inexplicably, but for some reason, Gu Qingzhou was silent like a drizzle.
Gu Guizhang opened the file bag, and after a few glances, his expression changed again.
