Chapter 242 The girl’s surname
Mr. Xu turned his head as if he suddenly realized it, with an apologetic expression on his face, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry -"
“I don’t know why, but I see this girl is very friendly, as if I’ve seen her before somewhere.”
Gu Fei curled her lips slightly, wasn't this a common trick used by scumbags in previous lives?
Mr. Xu smiled and asked Gu Fei, "Is this girl Gu's sister? She doesn't look much like her."
Gu Fei’s facial features are wide open and closed, and her appearance is more gorgeous.
Langhi has soft eyebrows and looks demure and beautiful.
Gu Fei said calmly: "It's my distant cousin."
Although Lanzhi was embroidering with her head down at the counter, several people were sitting in the lobby, and Lanzhi heard their words clearly, and Lanzhi's face became even redder.
Gu Fei turned to Su Chen, "By the way, I haven't thanked Mr. Su enough for the congratulatory gift that Mr. Su sent that day. It's too expensive."
Su Chen waved his hand, "It's nothing."
He leaned forward slightly, "Now, is the girl taking care of this inn by herself?"
Gu Fei nodded, "I heard from Brother Zhang that Mr. Su is studying in the academy now?"
Su Chen smiled and said, "Studying at Qinglian Academy."
Gu Fei raised his eyebrows slightly, Qinglian Academy was very famous even in later generations.
This academy has gone through ups and downs for thousands of years, and has produced many great scholars, great Confucians, and high-ranking officials.
Gu Fei smiled and said, "Then you must be very knowledgeable."
Mr. Xu waved his fan and glanced at Su Chen with a smile, "That's natural. Zi Xiu is an expert at writing splendid articles. He ranked first in the academy this month in the monthly examination."
“Master has said that there will be a place for Zi Xiu in the end of this autumn.”
After hearing this, Gu Fei thought to himself, Qiu Wei is the provincial examination, which is the examination of candidates. It seems that Mr. Su has already gained the reputation of being a scholar.
Su Chen blushed slightly and waved his hand, "It's just a fluke."
Gu Fei said with a smile: "Then I would like to congratulate the young master on high school in advance. If the young master wins, send someone a message so that I can send him a congratulatory gift."
It's also a good way to repay the favor of the green jade cabbage.
She stood up and said, "You two gentlemen, please sit down for a moment while I go change my clothes."
Gu Fei got up and went to the backyard.
As soon as Gu Fei left, Mr. Xu also stood up, walked to the counter, smiled at Lanzhi who was lowering her head to embroider, and said, "What's your surname, girl?"
Lanzhi was already tense when she saw him coming, but when she heard his question, her face became redder and redder. She didn't say anything, just lowered her head and embroidered.
Mr. Xu added: "The girl has such skillful hands. I have never seen such exquisite embroidery work before."
Lanzhi vaguely understood what the young man meant, bit her lip, and regardless of the fact that no one was looking after her at the counter, she put down her embroidery bag and went to the backyard.
Mr. Xu looked at Lanzhi's back disappearing through the back door and felt a sense of loss.
Su Chen looked at Mr. Xu and frowned slightly. In the past, when he looked at Mr. Xu in the academy, he was okay, but today, he behaved quite frivolously.
Qinglian Academy, where he is currently studying, is a day's drive from Ping'an City. He finally took three days' rest and only got home last night. This morning, he just wanted to come and see Gu Fei.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Xu came to the door early in the morning. Su Chen had no choice but to see Gu Fei today and go to the academy early tomorrow morning, so he had to bring him with him.
Who would have known that he would stare at this little lady without any scruples.
Not long after, Gu Fei came out, still wearing a moon-white fine cotton undershirt, but she changed into a clean one.
Su Chen saw that Mr. Xu was still craning his neck to look at the back door, and was worried that he might cause something. He stood up and bowed to Gu Fei, "Miss Gu, Brother Xu and I have to go to the bookstore, so I won't disturb you."
