After the hope of "Si Xingyu's wife" was dashed, Gu Qingzhou lost his obsession with cycling.
She doesn't care.
She doesn't need to explain anything to anyone. She is not anyone's wife and has no obligation to anyone.
Her future path is more clear but firm.
Si Xingpei helped her and dealt with Qin Zheng, but he saved him twice, both of which were saving lives. He should repay her.
Gu Qingzhou owes him nothing.
The grace of saving lives twice. He should do more for Gu Qingzhou, and Gu Qingzhou deserves it. She doesn't have to worry.
After all this pressure was gone, Gu Qingzhou's mood improved.
"What do you have for dinner?" The Secretary asked her.
"Sauteed Artemisia annua with shrimps." Gu Qingzhou said.
She was in a good mood when she could think of eating a certain dish. Si Xingpei looked carefully and saw that she was really all right, so she didn't go deep into it.
Si Xingpei is very concerned about her, but unfortunately he has been too busy recently to worry about her. He was planning a big event, which occupied all his energy.
Gu Qingzhou was really tired. She sat in front of the fireplace, dried her hair, took a nap against the sand chair, and almost dropped the cashmere blanket around her into the fireplace.
When her hair was completely dry, Si Xingyu carried her to the second floor.
She woke up, smiled at the Secretary and continued to fall asleep.
There is a kind of relieved smile on her face, which is very sweet.
She also knew to smile in her sleep. She smiled so sweetly that Si Xingyu made sure she was okay and put her on the bed.
He had to meet a very important person in the afternoon, so he went out first and told sister-in-law Zhu to cook for Gu Qingzhou: "the shrimp should be fresh. The Qingzhou mouth is the most poisonous. She can eat anything that is a little worse."
"I see, Young Marshal, go and be busy." Sister-in-law Zhu smiled and thought that Young Marshal hurt people. She was really careful everywhere.
When Gu Qingzhou woke up, it was already dusk and the street lights in the yard were on.
Lying on the window, the rain had already stopped, the courtyard was washed clean, and the short holly leaves were burning with emeralds.
The path with colorful flowers and stones.
Gu Qingzhou stood in front of the window, stunned for a moment, as if he had lost his sense of direction.
She had a kind of top heavy hesitation, and it took her a long time to come back.
She dressed and combed her hair and was ready to go home.
When she went downstairs, sister-in-law Zhu was busy in the kitchen. The smoke curled up and there were already half a table of hot meals.
"Miss Gu, are you awake?" When sister-in-law Zhu turned around, she saw Gu Qingzhou and warmly greeted her, "sit down quickly and the meal will be better."
Gu Qingzhou sat at the table and saw Fresh Shrimps fried with Penghao. Her appetite came up. She wanted to eat and then go back.
Soon, sister-in-law Zhu brought up the spare ribs soup and the table was ready.
Gu Qingzhou invited sister-in-law Zhu to eat together. She couldn't finish it alone.
Sister-in-law Zhu sat next to Gu Qingzhou and had dinner while chatting with Gu Qingzhou.
Gu Qingzhou ate happily.
"Miss Gu is in a good mood today and has a delicious meal." Sister-in-law Zhu said.
The problem that has plagued Gu Qingzhou for more than a month has finally been put down. Of course, she is in a good mood.
"It's shrimp. It's delicious." Gu Qingzhou road.
Sister-in-law Zhu said, "Young Marshal asked me to prepare."
After Gu Qingzhou came home, Si Xingpeng didn't come to her again.
Gu Qingzhou is also busy.
She has her own plan.
"Brother, do you have any old newspapers over there?" Gu Qingzhou asked, "it'd better be an old newspaper with gossip."
Gu Shaowei was surprised.
"A little." Gu shaodao.
Gu Shao likes to collect books. Even old newspapers should be neatly sorted out in his hands and put in the cabinet of the bookshelf.
He opened the cupboard and found a pile of old newspapers.
"... this is nonsense, specifically about the gossip of celebrities and senior officials. It has no credibility." Gu Shao said, "it was the year before last. My family didn't subscribe to this newspaper last year. My father doesn't like it very much."
Gu Qingzhou nodded.
She brought them all.
"Zhouzhou, why do you want to read the old newspaper?" Gu Shao is curious.
Gu Qingzhou said perfunctorily, "I'll find something."
"What are you looking for?" Gu Shao asked, "shall I help you find it?"
Gu Qingzhou shook his head: "leave it alone, brother. I'll go back first."
She didn't care about food and lay in the pile of old newspapers from morning to night.
When Gu Shao came in, she saw a book at hand and copied a lot of things.
The old newspaper of the previous year had been turned over by Gu Qingzhou.
She was fruitful and got a name.
Gu Qingzhou remembered the name firmly, went out and took a rickshaw to a newspaper called the Faust evening news.
Before coming, Gu Qingzhou specially dressed up. She was wearing a royal blue cheongsam, a mink coat and an English lady hat. The edge of the hat was very wide, decorated with black silk mesh, which was inlaid with several small ruby.
She painted a big red lip, and the ruby light shone against her slender jaw.
As soon as she entered the newspaper office, a small compiler came up and greeted warmly, "who are you looking for, madam?"
Gu Qingzhou is dressed like this, and his face is covered by a net. He looks to be mature for more than ten years.
She deliberately lowered her voice and asked, "is Jin man there?"
Jin man is the lead writer of the "Faust Evening News", and his story supports 80% of the sales of the evening news.
Look at this lady, I'm afraid she came to provide grapevine information and wanted to go out.
"Yes, yes." The little compiler said, and then shouted to the office inside, "lead writer, someone is looking for you."
Jin man is a pseudonym.
What came out was a man in his thirties and seventies. He looked a little old and had a sloppy beard. He was wearing an old long shirt and half of his sleeve was worn out.
His hair is in a mess.
Suddenly, seeing the fashionable wife looking for him, Jinman rubbed his messy hair and asked, "madam, what are you looking for?"
"Jin Zhubi, I appreciate your literary talent very much. I have a little story. I wonder if it can enter your eyes?" Gu Qingzhou's voice became deeper. "It's all my family's business."
Taking care of the boat should be a new upstart.
There are so many absurd things in the new style family. Sometimes you can't think of it if you want to break the sky.
It's a good thing that someone provides materials. The Faust evening news is for entertainment, not a serious newspaper. The more boastful and novel the story is, the more selling points it has.
"Of course, this lady, please come in." Jin man said, but he didn't see how enthusiastic he was.
Gu Qingzhou said, "find a teahouse and talk slowly, will you?"
When they got to the elegant room of the teahouse, Gu Qingzhou found a position by the window, so that her face was against the light, and Jin man couldn't see her expression clearly.
The boy brought tea and Gu Qingzhou began to tell her story.
Her story is absurd. It says that her stepmother came to her house and had a head and tail with her husband. Now her husband wants to drive her out and marry her stepmother.
Her stepmother first seduced her husband with her 14-year-old stepsister.
"Really?" Jin man is also stunned and feels that the story is very hot.
"Madam, can you give me some details? It will be more reliable and more reliable. Maybe it can also give you a public opinion." Jinman road.
Gu Qingzhou looks very depressed.
She lowered her head in silence and turned the tea cup in her hand: "I don't want to fight anymore. A woman in this world can get along even if she gets divorced. I want to take a chance in Nanyang and maybe marry an indigenous rich man.
I remember you once wrote a story about a famous lady in Hong Kong who was sold to the British inspector by her father. She didn't like the old man. She fled from Hong Kong to Yuecheng and then went to the mainland. "
Kim man remembers the story.
He met the woman by chance. At that time, he gave her a toll.
The story was very good. He wrote it in three installments. The sales volume of the last issue of the newspaper increased greatly, which was three times that of the previous one. The boss was very happy and gave him half a year's salary as a bonus.
"Is that story true?" Gu Qingzhou suddenly raised his eyes and asked.
Her voice was soft and her breath was blue. Behind the black silk net, a pair of eyes are particularly bright, like a leopard dormant in the dark, inexplicably palpitating.
"... of course it's true!" Jinman road.
"I don't believe it!" Gu Qingzhou said, "her father is an official in Hong Kong, married to her family and supervised the streets. She left the dock and couldn't find her."
Jin Man's story is 70% true.
He hates people questioning him most.
"Madam, the loophole in the dock is too big. It's too easy for a person to escape from the dock." Jinman road.
"Just like Yuecheng, it is extremely difficult for the wharf to walk alone. Is Hong Kong not as good as Yuecheng?" Gu Qingzhou is curious.
Jinman knew that the wife was a housewife with little insight.
Today, I'm going to give her some insight.
"Madam, do you know what kind of boat to take, which is not easy to be checked?" Jinman lowered his voice.
Gu Qingzhou shook his head.
"Silk." Jinman road.
Gu Qingzhou deliberately exaggerated and laughed: "is silk very fine and expensive? Why won't silk be checked?"
"This is a self-evident rule of the sea route. Generally, the whole ship is made of silk, which means that opium paste is hidden inside. Those who dare to smuggle opium are greeted by the top, and the people at the dock will not check it carefully." Jinman's voice is lower.
"You know everything?" As soon as Gu Qingzhou's lips were picked, he became obsequious for no reason.
Her words are the greatest affirmation of men.
Jin man was elated and said, "nature."
"The most convenient place for Yuecheng to go by water is the ship Tang family?" Gu Qingzhou asked him.
"No, it's the Chen family." Jin man said, "the Chen family has a relationship with the British. Every time they take a boat, they go to India. Opium paste, arms, etc. the military government and the Green Gang dare not interfere in the Chen family's boat."
Gu Qingzhou laughed: "I still don't believe it."
Jin man suddenly realized that he was too showy. He said what he shouldn't say and stopped in a hurry.
As newspaper people, they know a lot of secret news, which can't be said.
But the opposite is a woman, and a very beautiful woman. Jin Man also has a man's bad nature and likes to show off himself in front of women.
He said something he shouldn't have said, covered up his smile and said, "I heard it, too."
On the way back to Gu's boat, he sat in the rickshaw and carefully rubbed the lipstick on his lips, with a faint smile on his lips.
Ship Chen family!
Yuecheng is really a place with hidden dragons and crouching tigers!
