Chapter 82: The Evil Stepmother in the Republic of China (Seventeen)
"Do you like the heroine Han Qiuyu very much?"
Gu Qingcheng doesn’t care about “The Legend of the Condor Heroes”, she only cares about Huoshui’s attitude.
She was such a perceptive person, how could she not notice the difference between Huoshui's attitude towards her and Han Qiuyu? "I don't like him either!"
Huoshui was a little uncomfortable with Gu Qingcheng's straightforward way of speaking.
It seemed to feel the aggressiveness of this executor who was suspected to be a villain and had extremely low character.
"Oh, I see. You like the so-called heroine?"
Gu Qingcheng asked again, pressing forward.
“No!”
Huoshui felt even more uncomfortable.
The whole system was twisted into a ball.
Okay, it admitted that it deliberately mentioned Han Qiuyu just now, just to force a comparison.
It also felt a little bit gloating over the fact that Gu Qingcheng was unable to charm everyone like a Mary Sue heroine.
But it really wasn't that it had any prejudice against Gu Qingcheng. It was just that this person had dragged the Li family into a lawsuit as soon as she came here, which scared the troublemaker.
This is not the future. To file a lawsuit, you just need to hire a lawyer, spend some money and time.
In this chaotic world, deliberately provoking a lawsuit may cause the other party to be destroyed.
The source of disaster is by no means an exaggeration, but there are many bloody examples right before our eyes.
Why was there a saying in ancient times: "A prefect who wipes out an entire family, and a county magistrate who ruins a family"?
Isn't it because those corrupt officials are too arrogant, exploiting the people to the point of sucking their blood out of them?
Gu Qingcheng wanted to sue Li Jiye right from the start. It was obvious that she knew the nature of the government, so—
Although Huoshui is a mentally retarded person, oh no, it is an intelligent assistant, but it also has basic values.
It did not quite agree with Gu Qingcheng's approach, so it deliberately paid more attention to the heroine, and wanted to stimulate and stimulate Gu Qingcheng whenever it had the chance.
Huoshui had no other idea but to make Gu Qingcheng be a good person and not rush down the road of no return to become a villain.
Hearing the guilty conscience of some idiot from the mechanical voice, Gu Qingcheng did not continue to ask.
She replied calmly, "That's good! Whether Han Qiuyu is the heroine or not, and how she is doing now, has nothing to do with me!"
So, don't waste my time with her.
As for what excitement?
Haha, as a person who was a winner in life in her previous life and didn't even want to experience rebirth, her mentality has already become so strong that Huoshui could not imagine.
She won't have any emotional fluctuations because of someone! Huoshui: ...Woo, this person is too sensitive and too sharp.
No wonder he is in charge of government affairs, his aura is so powerful.
The CPU, which was causing trouble, cried and quickly rolled into the corner, not daring to show its head again.
As for Han Qiuyu, his own executor didn't pay any attention to him, so he could only watch silently.
He easily defeated the source of trouble, but Gu Qingcheng showed no sign on her face.
She made an appointment with Mr. Bayer to go to the horse farm and said goodbye to him.
Gu Qingcheng took Li Yaozong's hand and walked around the campus of the university.
The buildings in the University Hall are not new and have a relatively traditional architectural style.
If you just look at the campus, Gu Qingcheng really can't tell that it is a foreign school run by foreigners.
At least compared with the magnificent, gorgeous and exotic train station, this campus does not have much "Western style".
The troublemaker endured it again and again, and he really wanted to explain to Gu Qingcheng: Although this medical university was run by foreigners, the old site of the school was indeed a school during the Qing Dynasty.
Since it was supervised by officials from the Qing Dynasty, it naturally adopts a traditional architectural style.
However, having been frightened by Gu Qingcheng's aura just now, Huoshui did not dare to speak casually again.
Well, it’s not important knowledge anyway. It doesn’t matter whether you know it or not.
Huoshui underestimated Gu Qingcheng. Even without his popular science lecture, Gu Qingcheng saw the school motto, school history and other introductions in the teaching building.
Thus, Gu Qingcheng had a general understanding of the origin of this university hall.
“This university is really great!”
After getting a general understanding, Gu Qingcheng made a decision in his mind.
She strolled out of the campus, and when she passed the gatekeeper, she stopped to greet the old man.
"Looking for a house?"
The old man looked to be in his fifties or sixties, and he spoke in the local dialect.
Hearing the old man's accent, Gu Qingcheng felt relieved: This is a local elder, a local resident. He may not be rich or powerful, but he knows everything about the nearby things!
"Yes. I just came from the countryside and thought the university was good, so I wanted to rent a house nearby."
Gu Qingcheng smiled. She was wearing a veil, but her eyes were curved, showing a smile.
The old man's slightly cloudy eyes swept over Gu Qingcheng's traditional and conservative clothes, as well as the fat boy she was holding in her hand.
He also had some time working at the university.
I have seen many scenes of the original wives from the countryside finding their way to the city.
What an ungrateful man! Haha, compared with those men who claim to be great talents and good teachers, he is really nothing.
The old man was a gossipy person. Just by looking at the appearance of Gu Qingcheng, an "orphan and a widow", he had already imagined several melodramatic scenes.
Tsk tsk, is she running to the provincial capital to find her husband?
As a result, her husband didn't like her, but she was unwilling to go back, so she wanted to rent a house outside her husband's school and stay with him? Fortunately, Gu Qingcheng didn't know what the old man was thinking, otherwise, she would have said in a very funny way: Uncle, with your brain, it would be a pity if you don't go to the opera troupe to write jokes for others.
Although she didn't know what was in the old man's mind, Gu Qingcheng still saw the strange look in his eyes.
She didn't think much about it, just thinking that the old man saw her chatting with Mr. Bayer just now.
Gu Qingcheng was not wrong in her guess. The old man did see her chatting with Mr. Bayer.
But the old man had already imagined one melodramatic drama after another in his mind, and he didn't think about how Gu Qingcheng could chat and laugh so happily with a foreigner.
The old man thought that Gu Qingcheng was worthy of being a big-footed woman from the country. She was very brave. She asked for directions and people, and even dared to look for those foreigners.
"Master, I see that you work at the university, so I think you know this area very well, so I would like to ask you to help me think about whether there is a suitable house nearby."
Gu Qingcheng temporarily ignored the old man's strange expression and continued talking with a smile.
"Oh, you asked the right person!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
After the old man imagined the bloody drama in his mind, he turned his attention back.
He slapped his thigh and said with a smile, "What a coincidence! I have a small courtyard for rent, right in the alley opposite the University Hall."
"But my house has its own entrance and yard, three main rooms, and a utility room, so there are four rooms in total."
"The price is a bit higher. I see you're an orphan and a widow, and life is hard, so I won't ask for more. It's one dollar a month, at least for three months, and there's a two-dollar deposit."
After the old man finished this conversation, he secretly glanced at Gu Qingcheng's expression.
He was afraid that his price would be too high and would scare away the country woman who had just arrived in the city.
Although his yard is really nice, the rent of one dollar a month is really a lot.
It is said that he was the gatekeeper at the university and only earned two dollars a month.
Those rickshaw pullers on the street may not earn two dollars even if they work very hard for a month.
"Uncle, can I go and see the yard first?"
Gu Qingcheng was not in a hurry to negotiate the price, but wanted to see the house first.
If the yard is nice, this price is not unacceptable.
"Sure! Of course!"
When the old man heard that Gu Qingcheng was not of high rank, he felt that there was a possibility.
He quickly said something to the handyman on duty at the school gate and led Gu Qingcheng to the opposite side of the school.
The two soldiers were still squatting in the corner.
At this moment, they saw Gu Qingcheng coming out with an old man. They looked at each other at first, then quickly stood up.
"Ms. Gu, what are you doing?"
Gu Qingcheng smiled and said to the two men, "My two military lords, I think this place is great and I want to rent a house nearby."
"It just so happened that this old man had an unused yard at home, so I wanted to go take a look."
Rent a house? Here? The two soldiers exchanged glances.
"Ms. Gu is quite decisive. She made the decision to rent a house very easily."
"I guess she wants to live near the school. This Medical University is run by foreigners. There are many foreigners around, so it should be safer."
"Oh, so this Ms. Gu is quite smart."
"He must be smart, otherwise our commander wouldn't be so concerned about it."
The two soldiers exchanged words in silence, then said eagerly, "We brothers will go with you."
After saying this, they looked at the old man again, "Old man, don't bully the newbies!"
Don't think that Ms. Gu is an easy-to-bully country woman just because she comes from another place and wears conservative clothes.
Ms. Gu did come from the countryside, but she still has Commander Ma standing behind her.
Old man: ...You still bring soldiers with you when you go out? Haha, I wouldn't dare to cheat you even if I had the guts.
However, he had no intention of cheating anyone, and even felt sorry for Gu Qingcheng, an "orphan and a widow".
The appearance of the two soldiers simply turned the old man's "pity" into "awe".
"Don't worry! Don't worry, sir! Hehe. I'm an old resident here, I won't do anything rash!"
My family business and relatives are all here. If I cheat others and cause trouble, it would be shameful enough.
As the old man spoke, he led Gu Qingcheng and others to his own courtyard.
It’s not far from the University Hall, just about ten minutes’ walk.
The courtyard is a bit old, but the roof and windows are still in good condition.
The yard was kept fairly clean, with no weeds in the corners or cracks in the ground.
The three main rooms face north and south, and the house is very bright.
The utility room should have been added later. It is located in the corner of the wall and can be used as a firewood room or a kitchen.
"We are not far from Baotu Spring and Daming Lake. There are springs underground. If you lift up the floor tiles, spring water will come out!"
The old man introduced it very proudly.
Although he couldn't tell from Gu Qingcheng's eyes whether she was satisfied, his yard was definitely nice.
If this country woman doesn't like it, she either has no vision or no money!
