MTL - Ci Jinzhi-Chapter 121 Aunt Gui
Xin You learned of Deputy Commander Han's dismissal from He Qingxiao.
"Kong Yushi impeached Deputy Commander Han for disturbing the people, and the victim lost his life."
People like Deputy Commander Han are used to domineering, if you really want to find out his mistakes, you don't need to bring Qingsong Bookstore into it.
"Kong Yushi?" Xin You immediately thought of Kong Rui brothers and sisters, "Could it be related to the Princess Palace?"
Compared to the turmoil caused by Mr. Ping An's murder, Deputy Commander Han's trouble finding Qingsong Bookstore is just a small wave, and there are no traces. Except for the princess mansion who has been favored by her, Xin You can't think of anyone else who would grab Deputy Commander Han's braid at this time.
There was a smile in He Qingxiao's eyes: "Yes, Kong Yushi is the nephew of Princess Zhaoyang and the cousin of the Marquis of Jing'an."
Many people should know by now how much Princess Zhaoyang cares about her daughter's savior, Miss Kou.
Xinyou's heart is also warm.
Although she doesn't ask for anything in return for helping others, but the other party's desire to repay makes her feel that she has helped the wrong person.
"The Yaxin Bookstore was seized—" Xin You thought that he would be able to see He Qingxiao on the day the opposite bookstore was seized.
But I don’t know that Mr. He came here yesterday, and he was scared away by Mr. Kong who bought a hundred sets of "Painted Skin".
"Today I heard about Yaxin Bookstore spreading rumors, and I am very annoyed."
Xin You nodded slightly.
Sure enough, otherwise Yaxin Bookstore would not have struggled.
"I would also like to thank Mr. He for speaking for Qingsong Bookstore. If Mr. He is free today, I will treat you to dinner."
He Qingxiao immediately thought of the meal that Fengweilou spent more than 20 taels of silver.
"Hey, I have something to do today, Miss Kou don't have to be so polite."
He Qingxiao left in a hurry, quite a bit like running away.
The next few days were calm, and Xin You spent most of her time in the house writing books. When she was tired, she went to the front bookstore to have a look.
There are no new books for sale at the bookstore, and there is no longer a long queue. However, because the bookstore opposite is down, people will buy other books one after another, and the sales have entered a stable state.
A beautiful middle-aged woman came to the bookstore this day.
Shopkeeper Hu was closing his eyes to rest his mind, when he heard a gentle voice: "Excuse me, is this a bookstore?"
The old shopkeeper opened his eyes, saw the well-dressed woman, and secretly thought it was a pity.
Looking at the decent woman, my brain doesn't seem to be very bright.
Liu Zhou also twitched the corner of his mouth and greeted him: "We are a bookstore here, what books do you want to buy?"
Not to mention the signboard outside the door, just the rows of bookshelves, isn’t it a bookstore? Could it be a cosmetic shop?
"Are there any travel notes?" The woman asked when she thought of the book He Qingxiao brought back to the Hou Mansion.
The woman is Aunt Gui who took care of He Qingxiao from childhood to adulthood.
She had already thought about coming to Qingsong Bookstore to take a look. I heard that the owner of Qingsong Bookstore is a young girl who is quite famous in the capital, and people call her Miss Kou.
Would Ms. Kou be the reason why the child behaved differently?
"Please, our bookstore's travel notes are on the bookshelves here." Liu Zhou led the woman to the row of bookshelves where He Qingxiao often stayed.
Aunt Gui scanned through the books and confirmed that she was not interested, but because she didn't see Miss Kou, she picked out a random book to read.
Liu Zhou stood next to him, because Mr. He reads books first from time to time, so he doesn’t feel disgusted by this kind of behavior of only reading but not buying. The only thing I don’t understand is why these people love to read only travel notes?
Aunt Gui bit the bullet and endured for a while, silently picked up the travel notes and went to pay the bill.
She is really not good at delaying time like this, it seems that today is going to return in vain.
Aunt Gui was walking towards the counter when she suddenly heard the boy shout: "Master."
She immediately turned her head to look, and saw a girl in a green dress walking in from behind.
The girl with Qiong nose and cherry lips is very beautiful, and a pair of clear and black eyes add a bit of elegance to this complexion.
Aunt Gui immediately thought of Princess Zhaoyang.
This girl Kou really looks like Princess Zhaoyang.
This discovery made Aunt Gui quite conflicted.
She likes Princess Zhaoyang, but she doesn’t like that—
Of course, whether she likes it or not is not worth mentioning, the key is Lord Hou.
It was Miss Kou who enlightened Master Hou?
Xin You was slightly taken aback when she saw Aunt Gui.
The woman in front of her looks familiar.
Because of this feeling of deja vu, Xin You smiled at Aunt Gui: "Do you want to pay the bill?"
"Oh—" Aunt Gui glanced at the travel notes in her hand, and hurriedly put the book on the counter, "Check out."
"Certificate of one tael of silver." Liu Zhou quoted the price from the side.
Aunt Gui's pupils startled.
Really expensive!
Thinking of He Qingxiao's recent trips to buy one after another at home, she can be sure: that child is absolutely in love with Miss Kou.
I just don’t know if this liking has been made known to other girls.
Aunt Gui was curious and worried at the same time, she looked at Xin You with kindness in her eyes.
Xin You thought Aunt Gui's eyes were familiar, but she couldn't remember where she saw her.
Because of her pair of different pupils, sometimes she may see a stranger who is going to be unlucky if she just takes a casual look while walking on the street.
She pretended not to notice such innocuous troubles. If it was a matter of life and death, she would inevitably look at that person a few more times and give a few reminders.
Because of this, it is not surprising that some strangers left an impression in her mind.
But when Aunt Gui looked at her with the eyes of an elder looking at a younger generation, Xin You suddenly thought of it.
The woman in front of me looks like Aunt Xia!
She grew up eating the meals cooked by Aunt Xia. For her, no one cooks better than Aunt Xia.
But since that day, she has never had the chance to eat the meals cooked by Aunt Xia.
Tears welled up and she suppressed them again, but facing a woman who was similar to Aunt Xia, she still couldn't be calm.
"Guests like to read travel notes? I have a friend who also likes to read travel notes." Seeing that Liu Zhou had already collected the money, Xin You blurted out.
She couldn't help but say something, so that the woman in front of her could stay for a while.
Aunt Gui thought so too.
She doesn't want to leave yet, but the guys have already collected the money.
Xin You's words immediately gave her a chance.
"Yes, I really like reading travel notes." Aunt Gui picked up the newly bought travel notes, and asked with a smile, "I heard that the owner of your bookstore is Miss Kou, is it a girl?"
Shopkeeper Hu secretly shook his head.
This woman is really confused, Liu Zhou called her boss just now.
"It's me. What's your name?"
"Miss Kou, don't be so polite. If you don't mind, just call me Aunt Gui."
Aunt Gui?
Xin You was shocked, and lightning and thunder set off a stormy sea in her heart.
At that time, she was still young, and her memory was obviously blurred, but now it suddenly became clear.
She likes to eat a kind of dim sum called Su Huang Du made by Aunt Xia very much.
Aunt Xia smiled and said that she also has an older sister who makes more delicious dim sum than her.
She pestered Aunt Xia to ask questions, and Aunt Xia said that her sister had the word "Gui" in her name, and if she saw her, she would call her Aunt Gui.
Could the woman in front of me be Aunt Xia's sister?
Normal or single change. There are not many things to catch up with in real life. When I am in a good state, I will write as much as possible, and random drops will be added. Yes, today is another day of sudden drop and change. I hope that the book friends who see it will be happy.
