Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 132
Chapter 132 Borrow
For all of this, She had nothing to hide. Everyone in Jincheng knew that, although they did not understand why the other party would ask this, in order not to cause any trouble for the young miss, Huang Qi said, “Young Master Gu, everyone in the Qiao family knows that the four rooms of the Qiao family occupy four courtyards in the north, south, east and west. The matriarch lives in the middle courtyard. The layout of each courtyard is arranged by each room.” The backyard of the Qiao Family is no different from the backyard of an ordinary aristocratic family. ”
“The Eastern Campus belongs to eldest branch?”
“Yes,” Huang Qi nodded. “The Eastern Campus has always been a long-term residence. Does Young Master Gu find it inappropriate to lead the East Campus?”
Huang Qi’s running out of patience.
Why was this person like this?
Don’t think that she doesn’t know that this lackey is having an affair with Qiao’s Third Son!
Although it wasn’t on the surface, this person had done a lot of things against the young miss. Wasn’t his goal to protect Qiao San?
After asking so many questions about the Qiao Clan, he wanted to secretly inquire if Qiao San had been bullied by the young miss.
Qiao’s Third Son deserves it?
Young miss simply disdained to look at her head-on!
“Why don’t you stay in the Northern Courtyard?”
Gu Jinzhen asked innocently, and Huang Qi smiled. “This servant is unable to answer Young Master’s question. Ever since this servant entered the Qiao Clan, she has been living in the east courtyard. After the Qiao Clan’s courtyard was repaired, it has always been like this.”
Gu Jinzhen fell into deep thought.
In the end, Huang Qi did not want the embroidered handkerchief that was said to be Qiao Yunxi’s practice. He returned to his room and secretly called Nanny Shen aside to explain the matter in detail, including Gu Jinzhen’s few strange questions.
Nanny Shen pondered for a few seconds, “Are you sure it’s Miss’s embroidered handkerchief?”
Seeing Huang Qi nod, she thought for a moment, “Anyway, it’s not Miss’s name. It was used to practice a few years ago. Outsiders don’t know, and they can’t tell. There’s no need to tell Miss about this. However, if the other side asks you anything else, you won’t know anything about it.”
“Yes, Nanny.”
With this, Nanny Shen and the others became more vigilant. After resting for a while, the next day, the group of people set off early in the morning.
Seeing the people waiting at the door, Qiao Yunxi didn’t feel anything wrong. Instead, Nanny Shen became alert.
“Let’s go together. It’s easy to take care of on the way.”
If he could enter the city before noon, what else would he need to take care of?
However, because it was true that Gu Jinzhen was injured, she could not pretend that she did not recognize him after she had used him up.
He looked up at Gu Jinzhen.
The latter had already turned his face awkwardly, and expressionlessly mounted his horse, as if someone owed him money, and dragged him away.
What’s wrong!
Gu Jinzhen’s uncertain attitude instantly made Qiao Yunxi angry.
Who isn’t a little public announcement?
Who needs to see their faces?
Ao Jiao got on the carriage while Qiao Yunxi sat on the side angrily.
Gu Jinzhen’s back had been tense, so he naturally noticed Qiao Yunxi’s emotions and sighed depressingly.
He didn’t have the face to appear in front of Qiao Yunxi again, much less face the evil he had committed!
His mind is very complicated now.
There were secretly happy after knowing the truth, but there were also guilt after knowing the truth. After a night of self-examination, Gu Jinzhen believed that his previous life’s trust in others had caused the tragedy for him and Qiao Yunxi, and that he had done a lot of things in his life against Qiao Yunxi.
While rejoicing in how to make up for it, he was thinking about how to secretly help Qiao Xi.
He was shameless and had no reason to stay with Qiao Yunxi. He became gentle and amiable, and Qiao Yunxi was more prepared for him.
Qiao Yunxi had saved his life for two lifetimes. In his previous life, he had even personally killed his savior. Gu Jinzhen was the first to not forgive him.
“How should I repay you for saving my life?” Gu Jinzhen blurted out, and the dumplings and rice cakes behind him were stunned, unable to figure out what their master was up to.
“Saving my life? That’s a big deal,” Tang Yuan thought of the passage on the book and said to himself. “I should agree to it with my body.”
“Promise me with your body?” Thinking of something, Gu Jinzhen blushed.
The unnoticed dumpling said in a serious tone, “Isn’t it reasonable for you to compensate someone for saving you?”
…
Qiao Yunxi didn’t ask anyone to send a letter in advance. He wanted to give Qiao Xingbang and Gu Jingshu a pleasant surprise, so after the carriage entered the city, it directly headed towards the courtyard rented by Qiao Xingbang. It didn’t care about Gu Jinzhen, who was traveling with him.
Someone had already announced it, so when Qiao Yunxi got off the carriage, he saw Qiao Xingbang standing outside the door and Gu Jingshu with red eyes.
“Daddy, mother.” Qiao Xi ran towards them with her short legs.
“Pa.”
He suffered a heavy blow on his butt.
Qiao Xi wrapped her arms around Qiao Xingbang’s back and covered her little butt. She looked at Qiao Xingbang vigilantly.
“You’re too bold. You can leave as soon as you say. You won’t bring any more people or send us a message. You’re relying on the courage your grandmother gave you, right? Do you believe that I’ll bring back the sub-chapter?”
“You didn’t keep your word. Mother, daddy bullied me!” Qiao Yunxi would judge the situation and know that he could not fight Qiao Xingbang at this time, so he could only seek reinforcements.
As usual, Gu Jingshu had already stabbed Qiao Xingbang with an eye knife. But she was even more worried about her daughter. She didn’t care about her timid expression. She hardened her heart and stepped on Qiao Xi’s butt. “She will sue again. Your father is right. Girls don’t bring more people with them when they go out, let alone send us messages. If something happens to you on the way, what will happen to your mother in the future?”
Gu Jingshu was originally angry, but as she spoke, her emotions came and she choked up.
Qiao Yunxi was shocked. He ignored the pain in his butt and hurriedly comforted Gu Jingshu, “Mother, don’t be angry. It’s Qiao Qiao’s fault. Qiao Qiao promises that it won’t be like this in the future.”
Only then did Gu Jingshu calm down.
“Uncle Qiao, Aunt Qiao.” Finally, he found an opportunity and Gu Jinzhen went on stage.
Qiao Yunxi gritted his teeth.
This fellow saw the embarrassing thing just now. Haha, the beam has grown big!
“Young Master Gu.” Qiao Xingbang did not have a good expression towards Gu Jinzhen, not only towards Gu Jinzhen, but also towards the entire Marquis Manor of Zhen Yuan.
“Uncle Qiao, this junior went to the north of Sichuan to do some business. We happened to meet Qiao Qiao on the way, so we came together as companions.”
“Thank you, Young Master Gu, for your righteousness. My Qiao Qiao’s work is not important. If it weren’t for Young Master Gu taking care of her along the way, this child would have suffered a lot.”
“Uncle Qiao’s words are too heavy. It’s just a passing through.”
Qiao Xingbang had no intention of inviting Gu Jinzhen into the courtyard, but Gu Jinzhen stood there and looked at him with a smile. The two of them were stuck in a stalemate.
“Thank you, Young Master Gu. I won’t waste your time.” As a considerate little cotton-padded jacket, Qiao Xi took the initiative to send her guests off.
“Qiao Qiao, have you forgotten?” Gu Jinzhen looked at Qiao Yunxi in surprise.
The two words that came out of his mouth were as clear as sake, and his tail trembled as his heart.
This was the first time he had said these two words, and it was even more beautiful than he had imagined.
Before he could recall, Gu Jinzhen stared at Qiao Yunxi without blinking.
“What?” Qiao Yunxi was confused.
“That’s what I’m borrowing. Previously, you said that I could stay at your house temporarily. Daily accommodation and meals will be provided according to the standard of the inn.”
“I…”
“Little miss, you did say that you forgot.” Mammy Shen confirmed Gu Jinzhen’s words.
Gu Jinzhen lived in the courtyard rented by Qiao Xingbang as he wished. Fortunately, Qiao Xingbang rented a two-way courtyard and the outer courtyard was big enough.
Gu Jingshu brought Qiao Yunxi to her bedroom. Before the mother and daughter could talk properly, Gu Jingshu had something to do.
Nanny Shen knelt down in front of Qiao Xi and said, “Little Miss, this old servant has made the decision without permission. Please punish me, Little Miss.”
“Mammy, get up. I understand what you mean.”
If Gu Jinzhen wanted to stay here, there was nothing she could do. She really wanted to fight with Gu Jinzhen. There were so many people outside, and even if she won in the end, her reputation would be affected.
“Little miss, it’s best if you understand.” Nanny Shen was now relieved. The young miss was able to see the situation clearly, so she did not focus solely on herself.
“Gu Jinzhen doesn’t need to worry about him. He’s used to being a whirlwind and can’t see me well. Anyway, he’s here to do business in northern Sichuan. He won’t be entangled for long.” He didn’t know if Qiao Yunxi was speaking to Huang Qi and the others, or if he was comforting himself.
Dinner was naturally for Gu Jinzhen.
Gu Jinzhen was also familiar with it, and he spoke to Qiao Xingbang at the dining table. He was so shocked that the rice cake was dumbfounded.
His master knew that even in front of the old duke and general, he couldn’t fart for a long time, let alone outsiders. Why was he so … approachable in front of Qiao Xingbang?
Is it because Qiao Xingbang is Qiao Yunxi’s father?
He already knew that Qiao Yunxi was the poisonous woman in his master’s mouth. No matter how stupid he was, he could still feel that his master’s mouth was extremely vicious towards Qiao Yunxi, but his actions were filled with care. This was obviously a difference of heart, it was simply not too obvious.
Getting accustomed to his master’s new urinary habits, the rice cake showed no surprise. Although he did not think much further, he could still reluctantly accept it.
The next morning, Gu Jinzhen took Tang Yuan and Rice Cake out to work. Qiao Yunxi slept until noon and had lunch with Gu Jingshu and Qiao Xingbang. He left the servants outside the house, leaving only Mammy Shen by his side.
“Qiao Qiao has something to say?” At first, Qiao Xingbang didn’t care much about it.
Qiao Yunxi first told him about his situation at the Chamber of Commerce. After learning that his daughter was currently the president of the Jincheng Chamber of Commerce, Qiao Xingbang’s tail curled into the sky.
“Oh, Qiao Qiao is more powerful than Daddy now. She is the Guild Leader.”
“The Guild Leader is Daddy’s, not Qiao Qiao’s.” Qiao Yunxi would not fall for the trap and let Qiao Xingbang throw the pot to him. “After Daddy returns, he has to fulfill the Guild Leader’s responsibilities and obligations. Right now, Qiao Qiao is only helping Daddy watch for the time being.”
Qiao Xingbang laughed and shook his head, “Your uncles didn’t make things difficult for you?”
He did not believe that Qiao Yunxi would run smoothly.
Qiao Yunxi did not conceal this point. “Naturally, she was unwilling. Earlier, Grandmother had used the excuse that something had happened so suddenly, and Father might not be able to rush back. She wanted Fourth Uncle to represent Qiao Family in the election. Qiao Qiao used the vice chapter to squeeze Fourth Uncle away.”
“Your fourth uncle didn’t make things difficult for you?” What he teased was Gu Jingshu.
Qiao Yunxi smiled. “Grandmother and Fourth Uncle are against each other. However, Second Brother said a few words and Grandmother let me go.”
