Chapter 20: What kind of official is he?
Gu Qingyu said in surprise: "It wasn't a dream! Was it really you, my cousin, who fed me the medicine last night?"
Qi Yue: "It wasn't me, it was the medicine that grew legs and ran into your mouth."
Gu Qingyu: "Cousin, you have me in your heart, right?"
Qi Yue touched his forehead and wondered, "You don't have a fever anymore, why are you still talking nonsense?"
After pondering for a while, he suddenly found the reason and slammed his hand, "I know it! He must have been starving for too long and became stupid!"
He Xiang: "Princess, what you said makes sense!"
Qi Yue said seriously: "He Xiang, you must remind Murong Heli and Shao Siyan to eat well in the future. Don't let them get stupid because of hunger. I don't want a man who is too stupid. Stupidity is contagious."
He Xiang: "Princess, I've made note of this!"
Gu Qingyu: ...
She looked so heartless as if she didn't care about his life or death, and even mentioned other men in front of him.
Gu Qingyu felt depressed and sad, and felt that the food on the table had become boring.
Qi Yue walked away on his own while explaining things to He Xiang.
Gu Yi asked cautiously, "Young Marquis, why don't we go have dinner first..."
Gu Qingyu hummed dejectedly, and when he arrived at the main hall, Qi Yue had already sat down and started eating.
By this time, Old Madam Gu had already eaten. Only because Qi Yue loved to sleep in wherever he went, she happened to be able to have dinner with the sick Gu Qingyu.
During the meal, neither of them spoke again, and Gu Qingyu looked listless.
Qi Yue put down her chopsticks and said to him, "I don't know if you are trying to kill yourself because of what I said the other day, but I never buy into this and I don't like it."
Gu Qingyu's heart tightened: "Cousin, it's not because..."
Qi Yue interrupted him and continued, "If you have any problem, please take the initiative to find me and explain it clearly. Don't fight with others, or mess with yourself. If not for yourself, then think about the old lady."
"Also, don't keep calling me your cousin. It doesn't make sense."
Although I don't understand why the title is inappropriate, the princess must have her reasons.
Gu Qingyu: "Yes, Princess, I understand."
Qi Yue stood up and said, "I'm full now. I'll go back to the palace first. As long as you can be more generous and don't fight with others, you can come to the Moon Palace to find me whenever you have something to do."
Gu Qingyu's originally dim eyes brightened again, "Cousin... Princess, do you mean to forgive me?"
Qi Yue waved and left with He Xiang.
"Princess, wait for me, I'll take you there..." Gu Qingyu put down his chopsticks, stood up and chased after Qi Yue.
Gu Yi behind him glanced at the almost untouched meal and sighed helplessly.
The young marquis' life is over, he has completely fallen for the eldest princess.
Old Madam Gu, supported by Zhuxiu, came to the front yard. She wanted to see if Gu Qingyu was feeling better. As soon as she reached the gate, she saw her grandson running after the eldest princess as if nothing had happened.
Zhuxiu, who was watching from the side, could not help but joked: "The princess is really a miracle drug. Just this night, the young marquis is full of energy again!"
Madam Gu smiled and shook her head, saying, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I am old and can no longer take care of him. Let him go..."
Zhu Xiu: "Old Madam, you are talking nonsense. When the young marquis marries the eldest princess, he will still need you to take care of his great-grandson!"
Madam Gu touched the back of her hand and said, "If we can really wait until that time, I will have the face to go down and see the old marquis..."
Zhu Xiu: "Madam, let's not say anything unlucky. The old marquis will surely bless you in heaven. You will definitely live a long life!"
Gu Qingyu accompanied the person all the way to the gate and personally helped him onto the carriage. He did not leave until the shadow of the carriage completely disappeared from his sight. Only then did he reluctantly go back.
Qi Yue thought that since he had already left the palace, he might as well go for a walk on the street while it was still early.
Thinking of the dark red headband on Gu Qingyu's hair, he told the coachman to go to Jin Yumantang. It was a pity for him to still be using the headband that was given to him four years ago.
Choose a hair crown for him, and also buy hairpins for Murong Heli and Shao Siyan.
Before getting off the car, He Xiang considerately put a veil on Qi Yue.
Jin Yu Man Tang is the largest gold and silver jewelry store in Beijing. Almost all the wealthy families in Beijing love to come here to shop.
The building is divided into three floors in total. The consumption on the first floor is lower, the second floor is mostly occupied by businessmen and wealthy people, and the third floor can be said to be a VIP room.
There were mostly silver jewelry on the first floor, and the styles were not particularly exquisite, but Qi Yue still found them very novel. After all, shopping is a pleasure, no matter how expensive the items are.
Thinking that I had to buy them anyway, I might as well pick out some jewelry for the little maids in my own palace. It wouldn’t cost much anyway.
Qi Yue: "He Xiang, take a look, if there is anything you like, I will give you one too, and you can pick a few more and choose one for each of the little girls at home."
He Xiangxi said happily: "Our young lady is so generous. I would like to thank her on behalf of the maids in my family!"
The waiter who was following nearby saw that this was probably an important customer, and he quickly flattered her, "Miss, you are really beautiful and kind-hearted. It's really hard to find a master as good as you among ten thousand!"
Then he praised He Xiang: "Miss, you are so lucky to have such a good master!"
Qi Yue: "You should make this money! I love to hear it, please tell me more!"
Seeing this, He Xiang took out two ingots of silver from her purse. The waiter was so happy to get the silver that he kept praising the waiter without repeating a single word.
Qi Yue was listening with great pleasure, but she heard a disappointing voice coming from behind her.
"I don't know where he crawled out of. He looks so poor and has never seen the world. He can only pretend to be rich on this floor. He even wears a veil. I'm afraid he has a sore on his face and doesn't want to scare others."
Qi Yue looked in the direction of the voice and saw a girl wearing light yellow clothes, about fourteen or fifteen years old. Her appearance could only be described as a pretty girl from a small family, but the words she said were extremely harsh, adding a hint of hostility to her.
Qi Yue: "Waiter, when did you start the livestock business?"
The waiter was a little embarrassed for a moment. Although he didn't know the identity of the lady in front of him, and although she was wearing a veil and plain clothes, she had an extraordinary demeanor. Who knows, she might be some rich lady traveling incognito.
Looking at the person who was provoking him, it turned out to be the daughter of the Minister of Honglu Temple. As a waiter, he couldn't afford to offend her!
It was really a fight between gods, and the little devil suffered. Since Qi Yue had just given him a reward, the waiter still kindly reminded her.
The waiter said, "Miss, that girl is from the Honglu Temple Minister's family. She is a high-ranking official of the fourth rank. We should just be patient with her..."
Qi Yue raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Fourth rank, is that a very high official position?"
"By the way, what kind of official position is this Honglu Temple Minister?"
