Chapter 132 Someone is causing trouble
The two secretly competing forces left. In the Southern Study, the Emperor sat on the Dragon Throne with a gloomy feeling. How could he not have imagined that Gu Rongyu would return alive from the army and even achieve such military feats!
He didn't expect it, and the prime minister didn't expect it either.
Gu Rongyu once again returned to the mansion. He sat in the main seat in the main hall, a cup of steaming tea in his hand, his face full of worry. "If either my wife or the deputy general were here, it wouldn't be so monotonous."
Qingnan stood aside and didn't dare to say a word.
Young Master, isn't this your own fault?
With the level of the young lady, she can make a group of scholars happy and obedient, let alone in this court? She must be like a fish in water.
With the support of the young lady, I have nothing to fear! Unfortunately, the young master doesn't like the young lady to take risks with him. This is what they call love that can make people lose their minds.
"Let those servants go down."
Gu Rongyu felt that there were too many servants, and every pair of eyes was staring at him. Although he knew that these people were his own people, he still felt inexplicably irritated.
If the emperor is happy and thinks that the young man has great potential, wouldn't he... give the princess to him?
Let the three parties fight over this hot potato! He doesn't want anyone else except his wife... He doesn't want anyone else.
This obsession quickly dissipated from the corner of his mouth, and Qingnan quickly asked the servants around to leave quickly and not to hang around Gu Rongyu.
…
It is said that those legends and the portrait of the princess had long since spread to Ruzhou City. When those talented men learned that the princess was coming to propose marriage, they all became eager to act.
I thought, if I could become a prince consort, wouldn't that instantly make me a member of the royal family? I could also represent the Southern Dynasty in negotiations with the Zhu Kingdom, which would be like sacrificing my life for my country.
Chang Xixi was holding the little girl and buying her a candied haws with a hint of sarcasm on her face.
These people, with nothing to do after eating all day, have time to chat. They might as well go back and practice calligraphy. If they get down and out in the future, they can still make a living with it.
"Mom, that looks good, I want it."
Chang Xixi looked in the direction that Xiaotuanzi pointed, "That's a purse, do you want it? I want to give it to the girl I like, but do you have someone close to you?"
"No, it's for my mother."
Chang Xixi found it funny, so she reached out and took the purse down, and asked, "Why are you giving it to mother?"
The people who accompanied the two of them out on the street today were Xiaohong and Li Da. Liang Ming was left at home to look after the house again. Renwen went to the teahouse to monitor the business, but in fact he went to work as a thug to avoid anyone finding fault because the business was booming.
The little girl used her funny little hands to flirt and said, "Because my mother is always unhappy and never tells me who my father is. I, I don't want to be without a father."
Chang Xixi looked at the two people following behind her, "Who told the child this? Didn't I tell you not to tell the child these nonsense?"
Xiaohong muttered, "I said it. Miss, it's not good for the child to be so old and not know anything. Every time you go out, people on the street say nasty things."
"I know what they said was harsh...but the child is too young. He doesn't need to know these things. Now he just needs to grow up happily. I won't force him to do anything, nor do I need him to become a successful person. Don't say too much in the future, okay? If you do it again, I'll deduct your monthly salary."
"oh."
Xiaohong grumbled in dissatisfaction and didn't dare to say anything else.
Chang Xixi gave birth to a child without telling anyone, secretly raising the child here and keeping him by her side. Isn't it because she is afraid of what people say? She still doesn't know!
I married Gu Rongyu because of the gossips from the villagers, and now I still have to endure those rumors.
However, she had long been numb to those words.
Moreover, Gu Rongyu is no longer with us, so why should we impose this kind of pain on the child? She didn't bring the child out for the past two years just to protect him.
"Oh no, oh no..." The waiter in the teahouse came running over breathlessly, "Second shopkeeper, oh no, someone is causing trouble, the head shopkeeper wants you to go back and seek justice."
Chang Xixi raised her eyebrows and thought, Wow, there are still people who want to argue with her. This is really interesting.
"Can you go home and wait for mother?"
Chang Xixi threw the child directly to Xiaohong and asked her to take the child back. She hurried to the front of the teahouse and saw the man making a scene.
He was a scholar in a long gown. Chang Xixi walked up to him and said, "Hey, what's going on? Someone is causing trouble here in broad daylight."
"Who are you."
"It doesn't matter who I am, but I'm a problem solver... So, why are you throwing a tantrum here? Why are you yelling in the street? Are you not satisfied with the books in the teahouse, or do you think the tea price here is too high? Or is it that the waiter's service is inconsiderate? Or did my people bully you?"
As she said, "My people," Chang Xixi pulled Renwen over and pointed at him.
The man got angry when he saw Ren Wen and said, "I don't know what kind of bastard he is. He knocked over my plate and didn't apologize, and now he wants me to get out. Didn't I pay?"
Chang Xixi asked, "Tell me what happened." She didn't believe that her people would drive people away for no reason, nor did she believe that Renwen would lie.
Renwen spoke with a very aggrieved tone, "He was the one who said there was a bug in the snack. I knew he put it there the moment I looked over. The bug was the size of my little finger. I was the one who served the snacks to his table... When I brought them over, I saw there was nothing on them. He was just deliberately looking for trouble."
"Oh?" Just as Chang Xixi was trying to understand the whole story, the shopkeeper came over with the plate. Next to the mung bean cake was a fat cockroach that was really big and impossible not to see.
Everyone saw the cockroach. Chang Xixi took the plate and said, "I bought this pastry from the pastry shop in front. And I picked it up right there. If there's a problem, you shouldn't come to me, but to the pastry maker. Why are you making a fuss here?"
"What the hell are you!"
"I'm the boss here... But if you say that to me, then who are you? Or maybe you're nothing at all?" As soon as Chang Xixi finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter.
The man blushed with shame and continued, "I was eating in your restaurant and found this. I just want a tael of silver as compensation, what's wrong with that?"
"Oh? You want money?"
"Give it to him, however much it is!"
The shopkeeper felt a little embarrassed when he saw Chang Xixi was so generous, but he still took out a tael of silver from his sleeve.
