It rained all day on Sunday.
The rain is thin, like gossamer, and foggy everywhere. On the wall of Gu's courtyard, the green vines also lost their broad green leaves. They cling to the wall and have no vitality.
The raindrops that fall on the milky white railings add up. With a breeze, the crystal clear raindrops roll down and fall on the bluestone path, splashing a crystal like flower.
Gu Qingzhou sat in front of the window, writing and calculating carefully.
She finished all her school work. This is her main business. Gu Qingzhou can't be abandoned.
Homework is not so easy, she sat for six hours, motionless, all seriously finished.
After finishing his homework, Gu Qingzhou stretched out and turned out an Aquilaria multicolored cotton shirt and dark green skirt in the wardrobe.
For fear of getting her shoes wet, she changed a pair of shoes.
Shoes are dark green, and her skirt into a line, hidden in the skirt inside, not abrupt.
After dressing up, Gu Qingzhou knocked on the second aunt's door.
"... second wife, I'm going to the bookstore. The school asked me to buy two English novels. I'm going to do appreciation next month. I just remember now." Gu Qingzhou road.
The second aunt was reading a magazine in her room. She said, "can I accompany you?"
"No, it's raining outside. It's all wet. It's very uncomfortable." Gu Qingzhou road.
Second aunt is too lazy, do not want to move, said: "well, you go."
After that, she got up and took two yuan to Gu Qingzhou.
Gu Qingzhou said, "can I have the driver's grandson see me off?"
Gu's family has two cars. In addition to Gu Guizhang's one for work, the other one is to send his children to school and Qin Zheng to go out.
The driver, Lao sun, is going to see his wife and children off.
"All right." Second aunt too happy way.
Gu Qingzhou went downstairs and first went to the inverted seat where he lived. He asked Lao sun to get ready to drive.
"Miss Qingzhou, are you going out on such a rainy day?" The servant sister-in-law Chen chats with Gu Qingzhou.
"Yes, go and buy some books." Gu Qingzhou road.
Mrs. Chen said that girls need to read more. Now it's no more than before.
Gu Qingzhou talks to them without any airs. Lao sun stops his car at the door.
Gu Qingzhou got into the car.
After sitting down, sun asked Gu Qingzhou, "Miss Qingzhou, where are you going?"
Gu Qingzhou was silent.
"Go to the bookstore south of Notre Dame road first." Gu Qingzhou road.
Notre Dame road is just next to Gu's residence. It's two blocks away. It's less than 15 minutes' walk.
It's not prominent to take care of the family. At such a close distance, the master is not allowed to give it away.
Waste oil!
But the other party is Miss Gu Qingzhou, who will marry to the governor's mansion in the future. The servants would observe what they said, and Lao sun was the most intelligent and prudent. Without saying a word, he drove to the bookstore on the south side of Notre Dame road.
Lao sun is driving slowly, and it's only five minutes away.
The bookstore is not big. On rainy days, there are few guests. Behind the glass door, the lights are on. The lights are orange, warm, with a kind of insipid warmth.
You can vaguely smell the ink in the bookstore.
"Here we are, Miss Qingzhou." Lao Sun said.
Gu Qingzhou didn't get off.
She sat in the back, motionless.
Lao sun is a bit strange. He is a family driver with a meager salary. He dares not offend the ladies, so he dares not look back.
The carriage was quiet, with the faint fragrance of roses.
Lao sun's heart is full of ups and downs.
What does that mean?
About two minutes later, Lao Sun said, "here we are, Miss Qingzhou."
He's very responsible, but he doesn't look back. Glancing in the rearview mirror, Gu Qingzhou sat with his arms in his arms. He looked quiet and seemed to be looking at Lao sun.
Lao Sun Ke Deng.
"... I've always been open and aboveboard, and I'm not afraid of the ladies." Lao sun comforted himself.
This kind of psychological warfare lasted for five minutes. At this moment, Lao sun was full of doubts and even nervous. The defense line in his heart was the easiest to step on. Gu Qingzhou opened his mouth.
"Lao sun, you always take your wife out. Recently, has your wife stopped you somewhere, and then she left in a rickshaw?" Gu Qingzhou asked.
Lao sun's scalp is numb.
A few times.
But can we say such a thing? If the driver is not reliable, he will be dismissed long ago.
Lao sun is very clear about what he can say and what he can't say. He has to rely on this salary to support his family.
"No, Miss Qingzhou." Old sun wants to say very firmly, but his voice can't help trembling.
"Old sun, you are not honest!" Gu Qingzhou's thin and tender hands gently lifted her thick bangs, revealing her forehead as bright as jade and her eyes as bright and cool as ice.Eyes over the car seat, nailed to the old sun.
"... now when the master resigns, he doesn't say that he doesn't like servants. He just says that the servants are not clean, so that he won't get a bad reputation and won't be able to recruit any servants in the future." Gu Qingzhou leaned against the back of his chair and said quietly.
That's the truth.
Servants are in a low position. Those who can afford to hire a servant are all respectable. Quitting a job will give them a reputation of being mean and intolerable. They simply say that the servant is not clean. That's right.
Servants all know, but this bowl of rice still needs to be eaten.
Basically, no one dares to take the dismissed servants.
Lao sun is just a driver. The driver tests his character even more. If he is dismissed by his family, it will be hard for him to find a job in the future, unless he goes to the wharf to work as a coolie.
But the money from working as a coolie at the wharf can't support the whole family.
Lao sun was scared to death. He didn't know how to offend the young lady.
"Miss Qingzhou, you are a Bodhisattva. Don't be a servant to me." Lao sun was so worried that he almost cried.
If he is dismissed, what will his family do? Watching the whole family starve to death?
"I'm not going to have a hard time with you, unless I'm taking my wife to the parking lot." Gu Qingzhou said, "Lao sun, you are so smart. I will not treat you badly if you are my eyes and ears in the future."
Lao sun thought about it.
Gu Qingzhou has been home for less than a year. She is smart and capable, and the master likes her very much.
In this year, a lot of things have happened. On the surface, Gu's residence is still those people, but on the surface, it has already changed the world.
Compared with Miss Qingzhou, madam is really out of date now.
If it were not for the old lady, she would not be qualified to eat at the table.
And miss Qingzhou will marry to the governor's mansion in the future. Maybe she will take her used servant with her.
It's very important for drivers to use trusted people. In case of being favored by Miss Gu Qingzhou, she will treat Lao sun as a confidant, and Lao sun will be able to work in the governor's office.
Lao sun doesn't have a big ideal. He just wants a higher salary to support his six children.
Lao sun did not dare to offend Gu Qingzhou.
"Miss Qingzhou, I'm just a servant." Old sun is still frowning, nervous way, "I took you today, another day will also take others to your past place.". In doing so, Lao sun is also immoral. "
"Old sun, I know you are cautious. You can rest assured that I will never doubt you when you are my eyes and ears in the future. I always have no doubt about employing people. I do what I say. " Gu Qingzhou road.
For the sake of that, Lao sun can't help it.
Gu Qingzhou threatened and lured, and Lao sun measured it again and again and said, "Miss Qingzhou, you have a firm seat."
Lao Sun took Gu Qingzhou to the south of the city.
The generation in the south of the city is the old city. Old style houses, wooden doors and windows, and people who pass by by by by chance are all wearing long coats. It seems that they have returned to the former dynasty.
Lao Sun said to Gu Qingzhou, "my wife gets off at this intersection every time, so I don't have to pick her up. Then she takes a rickshaw and goes southeast."
I don't know where to go.
Gu Qingzhou nodded.
"Well, it's hard for you, old sun. Let's go back." Gu Qingzhou said.
Back on Notre Dame Road, Gu Qingzhou went to the clock shop and made a call to Si Xingkai's other house.
It's the adjutant of Si Xinghe who answers the phone.
"... check for me." Gu Qingzhou road.
She told the adjutant that Qin Zheng had hidden a baby, about one and a half years old, in the complicated residential buildings in the old city area in the south of the city. She had only come in the last six months.
"The neighborhood is full of old neighbors. All of a sudden, someone comes with a one-and-a-half-year-old child. There will be some movement. After all, the child will cry." Gu Qingzhou said, "can you help me find out the information in one day, and then ask sister-in-law Zhu to call me?"
"Yes, Miss Gu." Vice official road.
Gu Qingzhou hung up.
Then she went to the bookstore and bought two English books.
When she came back, no one in the living room asked where she had gone.
On the eve of dinner, Gu Qingzhou received a phone call.
It's sister-in-law Zhu.
"Miss Gu, I have an address. Please write it down." Zhu said with a smile.
"So fast?" Gu Qingzhou was surprised. It was less than two hours.
Nancheng district is so big and has a large population...
"OK, you say." Gu Qingzhou road.
Zhu Sao gave an address.
At the same time, Zhu Sao told Gu Qingzhou, "it's a woman with a child. A man came by chance to deliver food. The adjutant has entered the door, but should he take the person away?"
"No, I'll see it tomorrow." Gu Qingzhou road.
When she answered the phone, the second aunt went downstairs.
Second aunt too did not ask whose phone, Gu Qingzhou also did not explain.Dinner time, four aunt too suddenly said: "yesterday's chicken soup is still left?"
"Half a bowl left." Said the cook.
"Go back to my room for supper." Fourth aunt said.
Yes, said the cook.
Qin Zheng said with concern: "if you want to eat, ask them to make fresh. It's not difficult to make one chicken a day. Don't leave the rest. It's not good for children."
"Well, it's cool now. It won't go bad for a day." The fourth aunt said with a smile.
They said this in front of the whole family.
Qin Zheng's words are gentle and her attitude is kind. She is very concerned about her appearance.
Second aunt too see in the eye, inexplicably a little worried: "they are not in the ghost ah? How come they all seem strange recently? "
But the second aunt couldn't figure it out. Her eyes turned around on the faces of the people. She had no idea, so she had to leave.
