Chapter 272 This is a full-scale show
After breakfast, Gu Xiaoxi gave Lai Yifeng an acupuncture injection and handed him over to Xia Yu. She took Qiu Shuang, Dashun and her two daughters out.
Zhang Shun was walking anxiously in the yard. When he saw them passing by, he walked out quickly.
"Where are you going?" he asked.
"The New Year is coming soon, so let's go buy some things to add a bit of the New Year feel." Gu Xiaoxi replied.
"I'll go too!" Zhang Shun said, and asked his men to prepare the car.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't bother to pay attention to this guy. Not only his uncle and his family were out today, but Ying San and Zhang Shu were also out.
As the twelfth lunar month approaches, although there is no temple fair yet, the city is gradually becoming lively.
After the carriage entered the city for a while, it became difficult to move forward. There were people everywhere. Some streets were so crowded that carriages were prohibited from entering.
Gu Xiaoxi and her friends could only find an inn, give the waiter some silver, park the carriage there, and then take the two children to go shopping.
Without a carriage, although it was a bit crowded, at least we could still walk.
Gu Xiaoxi took her two daughters to a jewelry store and bought two pairs of small gold bracelets for them, and also showed her mother a pair of large gold bracelets.
She had made a lot of money this year, so she couldn't let her family down. She bought a few more gold hairpins and gave them to the other elders in the family.
As for the two maids, she gave each of them a pair of earrings.
After leaving the silver shop, they went to the cloth shop.
After a while, Zhang Shun, who had followed, got separated from Gu Xiaoxi and the others.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't know when she walked behind Zhang Shun, and she inadvertently discovered that Zhang Shun was being followed.
She didn't want everyone to miss out on a good New Year, so she decided to go over and take a look. She ordered, "Dashun, Qiushuang, take them for a walk and go back first. I have something to take care of."
"Okay, miss." Qiu Shuang nodded in agreement.
Gu Xiaoxi gave her two daughters some more instructions before squeezing through the crowd.
Zhang Shun was upset and let his men go free while he wandered around the street absentmindedly.
If the thing he was playing with had not fallen to the ground, he would not have known that he was being followed.
He couldn't figure out who the other person was for a moment, so he pretended not to notice, walked around the street casually, and then walked out of the street.
Gu Xiaoxi followed carefully behind, and when he walked out of the street, he found that there was more than one person following Zhang Shun, and there were more than a dozen people following him.
Zhang Shun realized that there were so many people following him, and he broke out in a cold sweat. After all, although his cultivation had recovered a lot now, Gu Xiaoxi had told him not to use it if possible.
When he reached the corner ahead, he was suddenly pulled in by a strong hand.
"Shh!" Gu Xiaoxi made a gesture to keep quiet, and then asked him to follow her.
The two of them quickly left the street. Gu Xiaoxi grabbed him and jumped onto the wall, then found a place to squat and hide.
Soon, more than a dozen people ran in from that street. Zhang Shun recognized one of them and roughly knew who sent them.
After waiting for these people to leave, Gu Xiaoxi whispered, "It seems you can't live in my place like this anymore, otherwise it will definitely cause me trouble."
"You've taken the money, and now you're kicking me out?" Zhang Shun said nervously.
Gu Xiaoxi looked at Zhang Shun, then shook his head: "Let's go and find an inn."
After she said that, she jumped down from the wall, went over to make sure that those people had left, and then let Zhang Shun jump down from above.
They walked around two streets and found a street with fewer people. They found an inn on the street. Zhang Shun asked for a room and went upstairs first.
Gu Xiaoxi went to the cloth shop, bought another set of clothes, and then went to her room.
In less than half an hour, Gu Xiaoxi came downstairs.
After waiting downstairs for a while, Zhang Shun, disguised as an uncle, came out of the inn.
Zhang Shun took Gu Xiaoxi to find Baganzi and the others, and then drove the carriage back to the farm.
When they heard that their master was in danger, they were terrified. After returning to the manor, they began to persuade their master to leave.
Gu Xiaoxi returned to the farm and found that her daughter and the others had not returned, so she drove the carriage out again.
Zhang Shun didn't expect those people to find this place. He ordered Ba Ganzi to disguise himself when going out in the future, and try not to go out if possible. Everything should be discussed after the New Year.
In the afternoon, everyone returned to the village one after another, and everyone bought some things they liked.
Gu Xiaoxi and her group were the last ones to come back. They had driven out a carriage before, and she came back and drove out another carriage.
When they came back, the carriages were full of things.
The sun gradually set and there was little smoke from cooking in the village. Because we had bought gifts for everyone, several families had dinner together in the evening.
However, after what happened today, Zhang Shun never went out before the New Year. If there was nothing special, he would rather pay Yingsan and Dashun to make a trip.
Time passed day by day, and finally it was New Year's Eve.
That morning, Gu Xiaoxi led a group of people to the mountains to hunt.
Lai Yifeng went to Gu Xiaoxi for an acupuncture early in the morning and hurried back to celebrate the New Year with his brothers.
In the afternoon, he ordered his brothers to deliver some prey.
When Gu Xiaoxi came back, he found that his parents were busy packing up the prey. After asking, he found out that it was Lai Yifeng who sent it.
"I didn't expect this kid to be such a good person." Gu Xiaoxi was also happy looking at the prey.
There are many people in the village, including many children. They are all growing up, so naturally many of them eat meat.
However, before they could start eating, Ying San came back from outside with someone.
"Girl, come over here and talk." Ying San called Gu Xiaoxi aside to talk.
Gu Xiaoxi walked to the side and looked up and down at the middle-aged man in front of him. The man looked gentle and refined. Could he be a teacher?
"Miss, you said before that you wanted to buy a tutor for Master Afeng and his family. I went out for a look today and found a good one.
His name was Zhuang Zhixian, a son of a wealthy family. He was a scholar because of his academic ability, but the family suddenly fell into poverty, and all the other children were sold off, including him. Ying San whispered this man's story to Miss Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Ying San, obviously not believing this statement.
This person is most likely Ye Lixuan's man. Ying San came up with this idea because he was worried that the person Zhang Shun bought was not safe.
That’s all!
Anyway, he is just a teacher. Since they don't want to reveal his identity, if he teaches well, he will keep him. If he doesn't, he will find a better one later.
"You are so thoughtful. Please arrange for him to stay here!" she said lightly.
"Miss, this is his indenture contract." Ying San took out Master Zhuang's indenture contract from his body and handed it to Gu Xiaoxi.
Why……
This is a full-scale show!
Gu Xiaoxi also took the indenture contract as a gesture of gratitude.
