When Qi Qingxi was taken for a walk in the back garden by Mrs. Chen, County Magistrate Zhou immediately dragged him into the study on the grounds that he had to consult Gu Yu on official business.

But not long after, reprimands came from the study.

"You have to ask me about such a simple issue of land tax and taxation. Master Zhou has served as the county magistrate of Xichuan for so long. It seems that he has been in vain." Gu Yu threw the book in his hand on the table heavily, and looked at the magistrate Zhou with a sullen face. .

At this time, Magistrate Zhou was also sweating coldly on his forehead. He just found a random excuse to lure Gu Yu to the study, but he didn't expect to cause trouble for himself.

He handed over the matter of land tax to the county magistrate, he really didn't understand, if Mr. Gu came to ask two more questions, he might not be able to keep his black hat.

Wen Yu's girl said she was going back to change clothes, why didn't she come over, she was really going to kill her father.

At this moment, Zhou Wenyu, who the county magistrate was thinking about, walked into the study with tea and snacks.

"Father and Mr. Gu, this is a snack made by Wen Yu, you two sit down and have some tea and snacks."

In fact, Zhou Wenyu had been waiting at the door of the study early in the morning, and the reason why she was not in a hurry to come in was just waiting for the most appropriate time to show her gentleness without any trace.

Waiting until Lord Gu opened his mouth to reprimand her father, Zhou Wenyu knew that it was time for her to appear.

Now that she enters the study, firstly, she can help her father out of trouble, and secondly, her appearance will make Mr. Gu feel that there is finally something that can make him feel comfortable in this mess of things, so that he can win Mr. Gu's favor .

Sure enough, she only said these two words when she went in, Master Gu immediately relaxed his brows, and picked up a cup of tea she made to drink.

Zhou Wenyu was secretly happy, and she immediately brought a plate of dim sum to Gu Yu: "This is a dim sum made by my little girl, please taste it."

Gu Yu didn't take the dessert, but glanced at her and said, "Are you the girl who played the pipa just now?"

Zhou Wenyu was overjoyed again, Mr. Gu really remembered her.

She looked at Gu Yu shyly with a blushing face, put down the snack in her hand, and saluted sideways: "The little girl's name is Zhou Wen..."

Before Zhou Wenyu finished speaking, Gu Yu interrupted: "I don't play the pipa very well."

Gu Yu glanced at the dim sum at hand again, picked up a piece of dim sum, and said, "The dim sum is not very good either."

As the youngest daughter of the county magistrate's family, Zhou Wenyu was doted on by her parents since she was a child, and she was also praised and respected by the people around her when she grew up. She also thinks that she is indeed outstanding in everything and can afford all kinds of troubles from others. praise.

It was the first time she was belittled like this, and she was extremely unconvinced.

Zhou Wenyu immediately asked Gu Yu with tears in his eyes, "Why did Mr. Gu humiliate me like this?"

Gu Yu looked at her and sneered: "I just told the truth, why is it humiliating to tell the truth now?" He turned to look at County Magistrate Zhou again.

Zhou Wenyu is the only child among the many sons and daughters of County Magistrate Zhou who has been brought up by his side since childhood. County Magistrate Zhou has spent a lot of effort on her, and naturally hopes that she will marry into a noble family one day, even with him as a father. benefit together.

But he is just a small seven-rank county magistrate, and he doesn't have a very capable family background, so how can he help his daughter marry into a noble family.

Originally, he also changed his route, intending to personally find out those young talents who have the opportunity to go to high school in the future, and also come to the list to catch a son-in-law.

But before he had time to catch his son-in-law, he asked him to run into the magistrate Gu who was in distress, and he wondered if the Bodhisattva heard the wishes he made at the temple every now and then to add incense and money.

This lord of the magistrate is amazing, he will already be a fourth-rank member in less than [-] years, and it is only a matter of time before he enters the cabinet to pay homage to the prime minister, but it is a pity that this lord of the prefect already has his wife by his side.

But it doesn't matter, for such a young, promising and promising magistrate, even his family's Wenyu as a concubine is a hundred times better than marrying those scholars whose future is uncertain like his eldest son-in-law.

After having this plan, Zhou County Magistrate immediately called Zhou Wenyu to come over and express this idea to her.

Zhou Wenyu has been arrogant since she was a child, so naturally she would not agree to be a concubine.

But Zhou County Magistrate praised Gu Yu in front of Zhou Wenyu, dragged Zhou Wenyu to the rockery in the back garden, handed her a Western telescope, and asked her to secretly look into the courtyard to see if Mr. Gu is Not really as good as he said.

Zhou Wenyu saw that her father even took out a Western telescope that was given to him by others, which he regarded as a family heirloom, so she had no choice but to observe Mr. Gu's courtyard as her father wished, and happened to see Mr. Gu sitting on a rocking chair in the yard taking a nap .

Zhou Wenyu always thought that anyone who could become such a big official as the magistrate must be at least 50 or [-] years old.

Unexpectedly, the magistrate was so young and handsome, he was better looking than any man she had ever seen before.

Zhou Wenyu put down the binoculars to stabilize her beating heart, then raised the binoculars again, and she happened to see this scene.

Gu Yu in the yard was holding a piece of snack and feeding it to a woman next to her. The woman stood with her back and couldn't see her face clearly. Presumably, it was Mrs. Gu's wife.

I didn't expect Mr. Gu to be so gentle that he would personally feed his wife some snacks.

Zhou Wenyu was even more moved, and even began to imagine how wonderful that woman would be if she was her, so she immediately agreed with her father's idea, and she was willing to be Master Gu's concubine.

County Magistrate Zhou was overjoyed, and immediately planned the luncheon and the study meeting.

Unexpectedly, it was fine at this moment, why suddenly Mr. Gu began to dislike Wen Yu.

But County Magistrate Zhou was the most skilled at examining Duodu, so naturally he would not allow Zhou Wenyu to confront Gu Yu, he immediately scolded Zhou Wenyu to back down, and then apologized to Gu Yu: "The little girl is ignorant, and she contradicted the adults, and I hope the adults will forgive me. "

But the concubine's room was not completed, and he, the county magistrate, was also troubled.

Zhou Wenyu was belittled by Gu Yu, reprimanded by his father, and immediately ran out of the study crying.

Seeing this, County Magistrate Zhou immediately bent his waist even lower: "My lord, forgive me." It's also because he usually spoils this child too much, and he really dares to shake his face in front of anyone.

Gu Yu pulled away the chair behind the desk in County Magistrate Zhou's study, casually flipped through a few pages of documents on the desk, and said coldly, "These are the documents from Xichuan County, right? If you put all kinds of messy thoughts on me, you should really ask me to forgive you."

County magistrate Zhou stood trembling in the study, thinking that this time it was over, until Gu Yu went through the books on his desk one by one and left, he didn't come back to his senses.

Qi Qingxi couldn't help laughing when she heard the words, she didn't expect such an interesting thing to happen in the study.

She had been fortunate to see Gu Yu's poisonous tongue towards Xu Nianfei before, but she never thought that this time it would be worse than it is.
