Yao Yulan looked at the two in disbelief.

"Are you mistaken, sir? This Qi Qingxi is the adopted daughter of the former magistrate, a country girl, how could she be your fiancée?"

Gu Yu frowned displeasedly: "Do you think I don't have eyes and I don't even know my fiancée?"

At this moment, Gu Liang walked in, and said with a smile: "The young master is back, Miss Qingxi's luggage has been put in the room." After speaking, he found the atmosphere in the main hall a bit strange.

Yao Tongzhi's daughter was held up by two servants with a blank expression on her face. His young master looked at Miss Yao with a cold face, while Miss Qingxi was smiling.

Seeing that Gu Yu's personal entourage seemed to be very familiar with Qi Qingxi, Yao Yulan not only called her Miss Qingxi, but even moved her luggage into the mansion, she was even more astonished.

Yao Yulan even thought that she had identified the wrong person, but Qi Qingxi admitted that she was the original Qi Qingxi, so how could she become a relative of Mr. Gu from the capital, and even her fiancée.

Gu Yu was out of patience at this moment, he looked sharply at the two servants: "What are you waiting for?"

The two immediately dragged Yao Yulan out of the main hall in a panic, while Gu Yu ordered Gu Liang to pass the meal up.

At this time, only Qi Qingxi and Gu Yu were left in the main hall.

"I did a good job, Mr. Gu." Qi Qingxi said with a smile.

Gu Yu paused.

Seeing Gu Yu's bewildered face, Qi Qingxi was embarrassed, "Didn't Master Gu want me to pretend to be your fiancée and chase away those unpleasant suitors?" Could it be that she was wrong?

Thinking about it carefully, no matter whether Gu Yu has a fiancée or not, even if he is married and has a wife, there are probably not a few women who want to pounce on her. It doesn't make much sense to use her as an excuse to stop her.

Qi Qingxi smiled awkwardly: "No, I'm talking nonsense."

Gu Yu understood.

It turned out that she had misunderstood herself and used her as an excuse to dissuade other girls. In fact, what he said was literal, but it was fine.

Xi'er looks like a talkative girl, but in fact, she has never opened her heart to anyone. He feels that she doesn't care about many things, and it always makes him feel that one day she will leave everything behind and leave. .

Even if she was with him once, or later promised to be engaged to Guo Zezheng or even withdraw from the engagement, it seemed to her that it was just a dispensable thing.

If he said what was in his heart immediately now, she would either agree immediately or refuse immediately.

Although he wanted her to agree to marry him, he hoped that she had seriously confirmed her heart and made a decision after careful consideration.

The future will be long, let him figure it out slowly.

"No, that's what I mean. In the days to come... I will also wrong Miss Qi to continue pretending to be my fiancée and avoid unnecessary troubles for me. Gu is very grateful. Of course, if Xi'er wants me to do something Just tell me." Gu Yu got up and walked in front of her and cupped his fists.

Only then did Qi Qingxi breathe a sigh of relief. After all, she should still have a lot of troubles for Gu Yu in the future. It doesn't look bad for the two of them to help each other in this way.

So she also imitated Gu Yu's way and got up and clasped her fists: "It's easy to say."

After lunch, Gu Yu was called away again by the officials in the government office. Before leaving, he left Gu Liang behind, and told Qi Qingxi that he could tell Gu Liang to do anything, and he hurried out after finishing speaking. .

Qi Qingxi couldn't help sighing, sure enough Master Gu is still as busy as when he was in the county government, but Gu Yu is now the magistrate, maybe even busier.

How old is Gu Yu this year?

He is already a fourth-rank magistrate before he reaches the age of thirties, no wonder he can become a powerful minister in the future.

She suddenly remembered that she had something to ask Gu Yu.

Forget it, don't be in a hurry, she'd better go back to the yard to pack her things.

As expected, the yard was the same as when she left. It seems that Qi Qingqing never moved in after she left, but all the tables, chairs, benches and even the beds in the house were replaced.

She took another look at the furnishings in the house, the rosewood furniture, the mother-of-pearl flower and bird pattern wardrobe and dressing table, which were very suitable for her.

Seeing Qi Qingxi's satisfied expression, Gu Liang said as if asking for credit: "The young master deliberately replaced all the original furniture with new ones, just because he was afraid that you would not be used to other people's things."

Qi Qingxi smiled and said: "Your young master has a heart." In fact, she won't be uncomfortable with using it, after all, she has lived in this house before.

Next, it was time to pack the clothes and luggage she had brought, but she was a little worried looking at the large wooden boxes in the hall.

When she went to the capital from Ansui, all her belongings were nothing more than a few clothes and a few pairs of shoes, not even two pieces of jewelry.

But now that she came back from the capital, Guo was afraid that she would not be enough for this or that, except for the clothes and jewelry she had made in the capital for the past two years, before she left, she found a master to make two more for spring, summer, autumn and winter. set of clothes.

There are several large wooden boxes, half of which are filled with her clothes and jewelry.

The other boxes contained the gifts she wanted to give to everyone, some she prepared to give away, and others asked her to bring them back as gifts.

But she is not in a hurry to go back to Ansui now, so let's leave these boxes alone.

Qi Qingxi asked Gu Liang to help her move these boxes to the ear room first.

And she went back and forth in the room to pack her clothes.

Until sunset, when Gu Yu went down to the backyard, Gu Liang helped him change his regular clothes.

"What is Miss Qi doing?" Gu Yu was thinking about Qi Qingxi all afternoon.

Gu Liang put the clothes that his young master had changed on Mu Shi: "Miss Qingxi should still be packing things right now."

Packing all afternoon?When he saw her, he just brought a few boxes over and handed them over to a few maids and servants, and they could be packed in less than an hour.

Could it be that those servant girls are disrespectful to her like noon again?But with Gu Liang present, there shouldn't be such a bold servant girl.

Gu Yu frowned and said, "What's going on?"

"I originally sent a few maids to serve in Miss Qingxi's courtyard, but Miss Qingxi said that she was not used to having so many people around her. I thought about not being around and helping to clean up. Luggage is also fine, but Miss Qingxi said she can come by herself without bothering others." This is very similar to his young master, and it is worthy of being a couple.

It turned out to be the case.

Gu Yu remembered that even if she went to live in her uncle's house in the capital, she was not like those young ladies who served with a large group of maids and servants.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for someone to help prepare a piece of dry clothes in the Zhuangzi outside Beijing that time.

Xi'er is obviously the daughter of the magistrate's parents, but after living in Ansui for two years, she is not used to being served by her side.

It suddenly occurred to him that this was the place where she had lived for more than ten years. Later, when she found out that she was not the biological daughter of the magistrate, she left the government office and suffered a lot after returning to Ansui. What mood again.

Gu Yu decided to go to the courtyard next door to see her.
