Chapter 626: Short-sighted



Shangguan Yurou stood there and shook her head helplessly. Before dawn the next day, Xiaoyu came to Huajianlou. Seeing Ping'er and Cai'er busy in the kitchen, she walked over and yawned lazily.

Ping'er looked at the two dark circles under her eyes and asked depressedly, "What's wrong with you? Did you not sleep well last night?"

"That's about right. Is Madam awake? What are you doing?"

"We are making nourishing soup for Madam. Madam, you slept well last night and said you want to have a big meal today. You also asked us to prepare hot pot!"

"What is hotpot?" Xiaoyu scratched her head. She always heard some words she had never heard before from the lady's mouth. It turned out that she came from a wealthy family and had more experience than her.

"Madam said to put all the vegetarian dishes and meat dishes, such as beef balls, in place, and then make the seasoning according to this list." Ping'er looked at her with a smile. At this time, Shu'er came over and saw that Xiaoyu had finally come. She took her hand and said warmly, "Madam is awake and wants to see you. Come in with me quickly."

Before Xiaoyu had time to get ready, she was hurriedly taken into the room. Gu Yunru had just finished drinking the garden soup when she saw Xiaoyu. She smiled with relief and said, "Xiaoyu, come here quickly. I haven't thanked you properly for what happened that day.

I heard that you are even better than a midwife, I have to thank you very much. "Xiaoyu smiled awkwardly, pulling the corner of his clothes and said: "It's nothing, I helped Dr. Ma deliver his foal before, so I learned some prescriptions..."

Shu'er didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she heard this. The fact that Xiniang came to serve at this time showed that she had been conquered by Gu Yunru. This whole family would work hard for her.

"There are a few empty houses in Xiniang's backyard. You can pack up and move in. Don't hide in the cave anymore. The environment there is not good. As for Qiao Er, I will ask a doctor to see him. We can't go on like this."

“Thank you, ma’am, thank you, ma’am…” The matchmaker looked at her with gratitude. She finally met a good person this time.

Watching the figure of the matchmaker walking away, Gu Yunru waved at Xiaoyu and asked her to sit on the bed. Xiaoyu stood aside like a piece of wood, not daring to take a step. Shu'er couldn't help laughing and pulled her aside, pressing her shoulders and asking her to sit down.

"Don't be so reserved. What Madam hates most is people being cautious in front of her. Besides, Madam said she would reward you well. What do you want?" Shu'er spoke directly for Gu Yunru. However, Xiaoyu seemed to be a selfless girl with clear and bright eyes. She was not the kind of greedy person.

"Xiaoyu doesn't want anything. I'm already very happy to get this job. And Sister Shu'er gave me a big red envelope yesterday, with more than 500 taels of silver notes in total. This amount of silver notes is enough for me to spend for a while."

Xiaoyu had never seen so much money before. The generosity of this rich family was different.

"By the way, Xiaoyu, I heard that you have an older sister and a older brother. I plan to gather everyone to eat hotpot together tonight. Why don't you call your older sister and brother over as well? It will be more lively with more people." Gu Yunru invited Xiaoyu, but Xiaoyu looked embarrassed.

Shu'er nodded and agreed, "Yes, yes, it's so lively here. We haven't eaten hotpot together for a long time. We ate it once when we were in the city." Shu'er couldn't help drooling at the thought of the taste of the hotpot.

But Xiaoyu seemed absent-minded, and no one knew what she was thinking about. Shuer stretched out her hand and waved it in front of her, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you? You always look absent-minded."

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I'll go call them, but I don't know if they are willing to come." Shu'er and Gu Yunru looked at each other, and Xiaoyu went back to the house to ask the two people what they thought.

Rong Zhen didn't have any objection. He looked at Shangguan Yurou and said, "I've been in Qizhou City for so many days, but I haven't made many formal friends. Since the owner of Xiaoyu is so generous, why don't we go together to take a look, and by the way, buy a small gift for the child or something." Shangguan Yurou nodded.

"Azhen, you are so thoughtful." The exchange of glances between the two really broke Xiaoyu's heart. Xiaoyu couldn't see anything through the dress and silently changed the subject.

That night, Rong Zhen and Shangguan Yurou bought a small gadget together, intending to give it as a gift to the child.

Ji Heng was busy putting several tables together. Xiaoyu and several cooks were busy heating up dishes in the kitchen. When they saw two new guests coming in, they walked forward to greet them.

When he saw Rong Zhen, he froze in his tracks. "Hello, we are Xiaoyu's friends. We came here to congratulate the shopkeeper. I heard that she gave birth to a little girl."

Shangguan Yurou was holding Rong Zhen's arm, and the two looked very close. Seeing this scene, Ji Heng could no longer remain calm and quickly called Shu'er. Shu'er thought something big had happened, but when she came out, she saw Rong Zhen who had been missing for a long time.

But when she saw that this woman was actually holding his arm, looking like an old couple, she separated the two of them unhappily and said to Rong Zhen: "Why did you come back only now? Do you know that everyone has been looking for you for a long time!" Shangguan Yurou looked at everyone in confusion.

Ji Heng winked at Shangguan Yurou, pulled her to a corner, and asked, "Do you know who the man next to you is? How did you get together with him?" Shangguan Yurou turned her eyes and looked at him in confusion.

"Azhen and I are together because we are in love. Why do you look so horrified? Could it be that you know Azhen?" Ji Heng nodded and whispered a few words in her ear. Shangguan Yurou suddenly realized.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the long-missing Prince Zhao. Shu'er held his hand and kept asking him questions, but Rong Zhen showed impatience.
