Chapter 172 Apology
Gu Yuanniang held the stick like a female general. She put the stick behind her and looked at Xu Miaomiao and said, "Miaomiao, if there is anyone like this again, just use the stick to beat him out."
Xu Miaomiao was about to advise Gu Yuanniang to be careful, but after looking at the woman's appearance, she didn't say it out loud.
"A man came to the store today and said he was your colleague." Xu Miaomiao said while looking at Song Wushao.
Song Wushao paused while writing, and looked at Xu Miaomiao in confusion: "Did you inform me of your name?"
"I said it." Xu Miaomiao nodded, and while busying herself with tidying up her clothes, she looked at Song Wushao and said, "It just so happens that you have the same last name as me, Xu Qingshan."
Hearing this name, Song Wushao's frown suddenly relaxed, and he looked at Xu Miaomiao and slowly said, "Did he cause any trouble for you?"
“No.” Xu Miaomiao shook her head. “She said she came to persuade us not to do business anymore, but before she could say a few words, she was beaten out by Liu Niang.”
When Song Wu Shao heard this, he curled his lips unconsciously: "He is the simplest one in our academy. He tends to stutter when he sees strangers. If you don't like him, just kick him out next time."
"How can that be possible?" Xu Miaomiao stopped what she was doing and looked at Song Wushao and said solemnly: "After all, he is your colleague, so you should still be polite to him."
When Song Wu Shao heard this, he smiled without saying anything: "He is a simple man, but a little pedantic. He can't figure out many things. I'm afraid that's why he came to you. I'll tell him to apologize to you tomorrow."
“No, no.” Xu Miaomiao waved her hand quickly. She was not good at speaking to begin with, and if she did it a few more times, she was afraid that she would be taken away. “No need to apologize. On the contrary, we were a little reckless today. I hope he won’t mind.”
Song Wu Shao smiled slightly and said nothing.
Early in the morning, Gu Yuanniang drove the carriage and waited for everyone. As the sun slowly moved up into the sky, the carriage went farther and farther away on the street.
In the originally quiet mansion, the man walking hurriedly inside seemed a little out of place.
"Brother Wu Shao!"
Xu Qingshan had not yet put down the book in his hand, and hurriedly walked towards Song Wushao: "Brother Wushao!"
Song Wu Shao looked at him running towards him and raised his head from the book: "Brother Xu, what's wrong?"
The calm and powerful greeting formed a sharp contrast with the other party's anxious look: "Brother Wu Shao, your wife is really fierce. I went to persuade her, but she had someone beat me out."
Song Wu Shao raised his eyebrows and said in disbelief: "Oh? There is such a thing."
"Yes." Xu Qingshan sighed and pretended to be angry: "You said such a fierce woman, isn't it insulting to be civilized? As a scholar, you must have suffered a lot."
"Brother Xu, this is wrong."
Song Wushao raised his head and looked at Xu Qingshan solemnly, with a serious expression on his face: "My wife is usually gentle and considerate, as obedient as a kitten. Brother Xu must have said something wrong."
"Impossible." Xu Qingshan said firmly, "I was being polite. Besides, I am a scholar, how could I do such a disgraceful thing? It's not decent for your wife to show her face outside all day long. I am doing this for your own good."
Song Wu Shao looked at him with a frown, "Brother Xu, you don't know that I am on the list thanks to my wife's money. Now every stitch and thread used in this mansion is earned by my wife. Brother Xu is wrongly blaming her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Qingshan looked at Song Wushao with some disbelief, as if he had not expected that he was the gigolo: "Are you serious, Brother Song?"
"Of course it's true." Song Wushao said with great force: "Brother Xu, you should go and apologize to my wife, otherwise she will get angry and divorce me. How will I live in the future?"
Hearing this, Xu Qingshan's hand holding the cup trembled, and he looked at Song Wushao and chuckled twice.
Originally he wanted to help his brother, but who would have thought that his brother was the one who was the gigolo, and he was doing so well. Xu Qingshan was a little embarrassed, thinking that he had really wronged Xu Miaomiao.
Xu Qingshan said goodbye to Song Wushao in a hurry and ran towards the department store. He would feel unhappy until this matter was not resolved, as if there was a thorn stuck in his throat that he could not get out.
On the other side, in the department store, everyone was having fun.
"Sixth Lady, I'm going out for a while."
Xu Miaomiao waved her hand, looked at Gu Yuannian and spoke.
When Song Weiwei heard this, she immediately came forward and said, "What are you doing? I want to go too."
"Here we are in the capital, but he forgot to bring many of Xuguo's books with him. I will go and buy some for him."
Xu Miaomiao started to explain, but Song Weiwei suddenly became interested: "Books? I love reading the most. I want to go with you."
Hearing this, Gu Yuanniang raised her head and looked at Song Weiwei and laughed: "Our Weiwei loves to read folk storybooks the most, you can take her with you."
Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao could only shake her head: "Okay."
As soon as the two men left, Xu Qingshan came into the store.
"You again!"
As soon as Gu Yuanniang looked up, she saw him looking furtively inside. He looked like he wanted to go in but didn't dare to, which made her feel annoyed. She immediately took out the stick from yesterday and pointed it at Xu Qingshan.
"You, you, what are you doing!?"
When Xu Qingshan saw the stick, he quickly raised his hands to block it in front of himself, fearing that Gu Yuanniang would beat him out like she did yesterday.
The bump on his head hasn't gone away yet, and he doesn't want it to happen again.
"I was just about to ask you, what are you doing sneaking around the door?"
Gu Yuanniang held the stick, put her hands on her waist, looked at the man in front of her and spoke.
Xu Qingshan was so scared of her that he didn't even dare to put down his hands that were covering his head: "I, I'm looking for, Madam Xu!"
"Oh." Gu Yuanniang snorted coldly and looked at him unhappily: "You didn't succeed in persuading me yesterday, so you thought you could come again today, right?"
"No, no!" Xu Qingshan wanted to explain, but he couldn't change his habit of stuttering when he saw a woman.
Gu Yuanniang was a little annoyed listening to his intermittent speech, and immediately raised the stick: "What do you mean nothing? I think you just didn't get enough of the beating you received yesterday."
As he said this, he was about to hit the man with a stick.
Seeing her like this, Xu Qingshan said as he fled: "You, you, you, a shrew!"
As soon as these two words came out, Gu Yuanniang's rage grew even stronger. She held the stick harder and harder, and chased the man faster and faster.
Looking from a distance, I saw a woman chasing a man with a stick running around the department store.
"Stop right there!"
Gu Yuanniang spoke breathlessly.
