Chapter 313 The girl I like is so amazing that she doesn’t seem to need a man at all
Everyone present turned their attention back to Jiang Heci and Gu Sangsang.
Gu Sangsang subconsciously looked at the black cloth in front of Jiang Heci.
The speed of weaving depends on the quality of the loom, the material, and the skill of the weaver.
According to the skilled weavers in the Gu family weaving workshop, they can basically weave a three to five foot long piece of cloth in the time it takes to stick an incense stick. She is considered to be one of the more skilled ones, as she can weave a six foot long piece of cloth.
This Jiang guy can't be faster than her, right?
Jiang Heci slowly lifted the black cloth.
"How is that possible?"
"Wow, this is amazing."
The onlookers exclaimed in amazement.
There is no need to measure, anyone with eyes can see that the cloth woven by Jiang Heci is much thicker than that woven by Gu Sangsang.
"No, it's impossible. This is not something that can be achieved by human power." Gu Sangsang was shocked.
She was so surprised that she bit her lips until they bled.
"Miss Gu calls herself a goddess, how come you are not as good as a mere mortal like me?" Jiang Heci's eyes were burning.
Gu Sangsang was confused by this look.
What now?
"Yes, didn't they say that the weaving girl came down to earth? How come she only wove so little?"
"That's already a lot. I've seen my wife weaving cloth, and she can only weave half as much as Miss Gu at most."
"What's up with that young man? How can he weave so much?"
"Could it be that he is the weaving girl who has descended to earth?"
"Wow, has the weaving girl been reincarnated as a man?"
The people were talking about it.
Lu Yanshi's mouth twitched when he heard this.
I have to say that the people have a very rich imagination.
No wonder the rumors that were initially spread by the guards became more and more outrageous.
"Are you really a weaver girl? You are deceiving the emperor and your whole family will be beheaded." Chujiu asked the question at the right time.
Gu Sangsang was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say. She looked at her father in panic.
This idea came from my father.
Gu Zhi never expected that these people who came to watch would become sharp blades to stab them.
He originally wanted to use the people to gain fame, but he ended up shooting himself in the foot.
"Sister, say something! You are the weaver girl. You still remember everything about your previous life in heaven. Tell them!" Gu Sangsang's younger brother Gu Yu shouted excitedly.
He was still young, so Gu Zhi did not let him know when he discussed the matter with his daughter.
After all, for things like this, the more people know about it, the greater the risk.
Therefore, Guyu firmly believed that his sister was the goddess.
Chujiu received Lu Yanshi's hint and said in a stern voice: "I will only give you one chance. If you tell the truth, you can be spared the death penalty. If you don't tell the truth, your whole family will be executed."
When Gu Zhi heard this, his legs went weak and he fell to his knees on the ground.
"Your Majesty, spare my life."
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers were outraged.
So it seems that the Gu family is lying?
Gu Sangsang also knelt down on the ground tremblingly.
Guyu looked confused, but was still pulled down to his knees by his father.
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I was afraid that someone would steal the fireproof cloth developed by our Gu family, so I resorted to this desperate measure and let my daughter dress up as a weaver to attract your attention."
"It is only with your favor that our Gu family can keep this foundation. Please have mercy on me, Your Majesty! I admit my mistakes."
Gu Zhi burst into tears and cried as he confessed.
He was afraid that if he took out this good thing, someone would steal it, and he wouldn't be able to protect his family.
The man is innocent unless he possesses the jade.
"So the eldest princess is the reincarnation of the daughter of the God of Grain, and it was you who spread it?" Chujiu loudly questioned the key information.
The emperor told him to take this opportunity to clarify things for the eldest princess so as to avoid causing unnecessary suspicion and misunderstanding among the people in the future.
When Gu Zhi heard this, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. Admitting it at this time would be really terrible.
Fortunately, he thought quickly and came up with an explanation.
"It's unfair. I only praised the eldest princess a few times. I thought she was kind-hearted and must be a fairy who came to earth to save the people. I never said she was the reincarnation of the daughter of the God of Grain."
"Your Majesty, please look into this matter!"
"Your Majesty, please look into this carefully." Gu Sangsang also kowtowed.
Guyu, whose head was in a mess, turned pale after hearing his father's plea for mercy, and then he reacted.
How dare my father and elder sister bully you!
"It turns out that the eldest princess is not the reincarnation of the daughter of the God of Grain. I thought it was real." The onlookers murmured to themselves.
"It doesn't matter whether it's related or not. What she does is good for the people."
The person Lu Yanshi had arranged in advance took the opportunity to reply.
"This brother is right." Everyone agreed.
The excitement was almost over, and the follow-up would be handled on the ninth day of the ninth month, so Lu Yanshi left with his daughter.
"I don't know if Lu Xuan has had enough fun. I want to play too!"
Lu Li looked at her father expectantly.
Lu Yanshi planned to go and take a look at the fireproof fabric, so he handed Lu Li to Lu Qi and asked the two of them to go find the crazy Wang Xiang.
"Don't worry, father. I will take good care of my ninth sister." Lu Qi agreed.
The two of them set out with their secret guards.
…
By the Qing River, Jin Yulu and Meng Shanchuan stood side by side.
Ever since Wang Xiang jumped into the river to play in the water, the two of them just stood there stupidly waiting for him.
"Miss Jin, you've worked hard in taking care of Master Xuan." Meng Shanchuan didn't know what topic to start with, so he could only speak dryly.
"It's not hard. Life like this is much easier than when we had to hide from place to place before." Jin Yulu smiled.
Hearing this, a trace of heartache flashed across Meng Shanchuan's eyes.
Miss Jin was only nineteen years old, but she had experienced so much suffering.
He was tongue-tied and couldn't think of how to comfort Jin Yulu for a moment.
But Jin Yulu did not need comfort. She had avenged her great hatred and killed her enemy with her own hands. The rest of the Shen family members were sentenced to death. She had no regrets.
After saying this, the two had nothing to say.
Meng Shanchuan was a little anxious, wondering how to find a new topic to continue the conversation.
At this moment, Jin Yulu suddenly exclaimed: "There's a fish!"
She saw a fish leaping up and immediately rushed over excitedly.
"I'll catch it for you!" Meng Shanchuan finally found an opportunity to show off, and followed excitedly, wanting to show off his fishing skills.
Unexpectedly, Jin Yulu swiftly pulled out a dagger from her arms and stabbed the fish right in the middle.
"I caught it! Let's have grilled fish tonight!" Jin Yulu held up the fish and turned back happily to show off to Meng Shanchuan.
Meng Shanchuan's smile froze on his face.
"By the way, Brother Meng, the wind was too strong and I couldn't hear clearly what you said." Jin Yulu looked at him in confusion.
"Nothing, I just said this fish is really fat." Meng Shanchuan said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Yes, I'm quite fat." Jin Yulu smiled happily with her eyebrows curved.
She learned a lot of skills when she was hiding from the Shen family.
Catching fish with bare hands is one of them.
"Let me hold it for you. It must be tiring to hold the fish yourself." Meng Shanchuan walked towards her quickly.
"No need." Jin Yulu shook her head and ran towards the weeds on the shore.
She plucked up two strands of grass, twisted them into a rope, and passed it through the fish's gills.
"This way I can take it home as a snack!" Jin Yulu held up the fish with a bright smile.
And Meng Shanchuan's smile suddenly turned bitter.
The girl I like is so amazing. It seems like she doesn't need a man at all.
This left him with no idea what to do.
