Chapter 261 Gu Xiao Targets Mr. Xu
Chapter 261 Gu Xiao Targets Mr. Xu
"Master Xu, please sit down." Wen Jiu didn't want the two to continue arguing. After all, their status was too different. Master Xu was just a businessman with some money, while Gu Xiao was the supervisor of the East Factory. It was as easy as playing to take someone's life in a moment.
She can't afford to offend him now. After all, half of her family are officials in the court. Gu Xiao can stand firm in two dynasties because of his means, power, and even many people following him!
Upon hearing this, Master Xu sat down, and instantly he was like a dog wagging its tail, with red eyes, making Su Jinmu want to kick him to death.
Gu Xiao looked at him and saw how obedient he was, and how he behaved. He used the same tricks again, maybe he learned them in the brothels!
"Mr. Xu is really obedient." Gu Xiao once again ignited Mr. Xu's anger.
"Sir Governor, Master Xu and I are good friends who we met here. He contributed money and effort, and he has all the credit and hard work. I did have a headache the next day after drinking." Wen Jiu's explanation was completely in favor of him. Gu Xiao looked at him with his tail wagging to the sky at this time. He turned his head to look at Su Jinyu. He looked indifferent, which made Gu Xiao feel that his three views were shattered!
What does this mean? Let Wenjiu be like this? Wouldn't he have to take a concubine back home?
Gu Xiao straightened his face and said, "Aren't you afraid that it will be bad for your reputation if the prince finds out?"
"Since I came back to the capital, my reputation has never been good. I know every time those ladies laughed at me. What's wrong with the prince knowing that? I just made a friend. I don't care about the women around him. Why should he care about me? Don't you think so, Governor? Besides, we are just friends. Here, Fengyang can testify." Wen Jiu threw the question to Fengyang who was watching the show on the side.
Feng Yang was confused, and then said, "That's right, Governor, there is no need for me to lie to you. Wen Jiu looks delicate and weak, but she is indeed tenacious. She must follow through on what she does. Good is good, bad is bad. She will probably get tired of that kind of life in the capital. She is straightforward. Have you ever seen someone of a lower class than you who comes up and calls you by your name? She is that person."
"We always eat together. Oh, no, this is like proving that I'm not having an affair... Ah, that's not what I meant. Anyway, we are really good friends. Mr. Xu and I are also good friends. Zhao An also knows about it."
"Yes, I know," said the county horse, shaking his head.
"I just want Mr. Xu to stay away from the county lady, to prevent someone from spreading rumors that would be bad for the county lady." Gu Xiao laughed. Did he think he was making a big deal out of nothing?
"No problem. Many of us in Ganzhou County know that distributing porridge and food is done together. We are too busy to handle it. But I still want to thank the governor for reminding us. It is not necessary in Ganzhou County." Wen Jiu smiled and responded
This little girl's curved eyes are so cute, how could she be related to Biluo Villa? Maybe the information is wrong!
"It seems that this governor has done too much. Since the two of you have proved it, I don't need to care about it. After all, it's a family affair." Gu Xiao laughed
Wenjiu saw that he didn't look drunk, so she was about to say goodbye. She stood up and prepared to go downstairs. Xu Gongzi also stood up. He couldn't stand his behavior, so he immediately took Wenjiu's hand and hooked his index finger at her. Wenjiu sat down, and he hooked his finger again. Wenjiu moved closer.
"Something happened to Wen Xi, and something happened to Zhao Keke too" These words were like thunderclaps
She pretended to be calm, put down her hand and pinched her thigh to force herself to calm down, and asked in a low voice, "What happened to my brother and Coco? Can you please tell me?"
"There are a lot of people here now." Gu Xiao looked around at the people in the private room, and Wen Jiu also took a look. Master Xu stood up and watched Wen Jiu sit down and whisper with the supervisor again. She was in a bad mood, and Su Jinyu also noticed this. What happened?
"That's all for today. I'm tired and ready to rest." Gu Xiao sat there with his legs apart and his arms resting on the chair, and it was obvious that he was trying to get rid of him.
In fact, everyone present could see that Gu Xiao had something to say to Wen Jiu. The princess left first with the drunken prince. Su Jinyu and Su Jinmu did not move, and neither did Master Xu.
Gu Xiao didn't move either.
"Mr. Xu, please go back. I have some private matters to discuss with the three brothers and sisters. It's not good for you to stay here!" Gu Xiao sat on the chair and stretched out his left hand to make a gesture of invitation.
Master Xu looked at Wen Jiu, who nodded and said, "Go slowly, I'll treat you today, you don't have to pay."
"I have already paid the bill when I came here. Don't worry, I will ask for it when I return to Beijing." Gu Xiao interrupted
"Okay, then you should go back and rest as soon as possible. You've worked all day, don't get tired again." The voice was a little loud, as if it was deliberately spoken for Gu Xiao to hear.
"Superintendent, Lord Su, Mr. Su, I will take my leave first." After Mr. Xu left, Wen Jiu sat down and said calmly, "I hope you can tell me the whole story."
"What's the matter?" Su Jinyu sat up straight, and Su Jinmu quickly pushed him forward. The four of them sat at a table nearby and drank tea.
"The Zhao family was detained by the court for unknown crimes. Miss Zhao left the capital and eloped with her childhood sweetheart before being detained in the Zhao family. Master Wen also fell ill and could not get up." Gu Xiao's words were enough for them to think over again and again.
"Have you found out what caused the disease? How is my brother? Coco eloped without anyone?" Wen Jiu felt that these two things seemed to be related, but he could not find any evidence.
"It is said that Master Wen was just drunk, but it is really scary that he could not wake up for several days. Later, Master Su asked a little doctor to see him and prescribed medicine. It is said that he is fine, but he is more sleepy," Gu Xiao replied
"As for the Zhao Mansion, Miss Zhao has already left, so there is no wanted order. Since there is no wanted order, it should not be treason. It's just that Young Master Su San came to me for help, and I just happened to know about this matter. This time I came to the south to investigate the salt mine of Zhao's father and son."
"Originally, I told him that he would pass by here and didn't want to tell you because he repeatedly emphasized that he couldn't tell you, but I think you still have the right to know. By the way, before I came here, Prince Xiao also asked me to bring a letter." He took it out and handed it to Wen Jiu.
I saw the words "Qinqi" and I was too lazy to write the two names. It was Xiao Jue's handwriting.
"What about Jin Xiu..." Su Jinyu didn't know how to ask. That was Jin Xiu's uncle's house. He was probably like an ant on a hot pan, running around in Beijing at the moment. It must be that his father and third uncle failed to find out anything, so he had no choice but to go to the East Factory!
"Everything is fine in the General's Mansion, but the Third Madam is a little angry and is asking around for information." Gu Xiao was telling the truth.
"Aunt, brother, I want to..." Su Jinyu knew what Wen Jiu was going to say without him saying anything.
"no"
"no"
Su Jinyu and Gu Xiao's voices sounded at the same time, and the two looked at each other tacitly.
"You can't go back, at least not now," Gu Xiao said seriously.
