It rained all day on Sunday. The latest

raindrops are thin and thin, just like wandering and foggy everywhere. On the courtyard wall of Gu mansion, those green vines also shed broad and green leaves. They are bare and cling to the wall. They are lifeless.

The raindrops that fall on the milky white railings add up to a lot. 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 has finished all her school work. It's her main business. She can't neglect the boat.

Her homework is not so easy. She sat for six hours, motionless, and finished all of them carefully.

After finishing his homework, Gu Qingzhou stretched out and turned out a fragrant and colorful cotton blouse with oblique lapel and long dark green skirt in the wardrobe.

Afraid of wetting her shoes, she changed them specially.

Leather shoes are also dark green. They are connected with her skirt and hidden in it. They are not abrupt at all.

After getting dressed, Gu went to knock on the door of aunt Eryi.

"... 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.

Second aunt is reading a magazine in her room. Hearing this, she says, "can I accompany you?"

"No, it's raining outside. It's so wet. It's hard." Gu Qingzhou road.

The second aunt is too lazy and doesn't want to move, so she says, "OK, go ahead."

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?"

There are two cars in Gu's family. Except for the one where Gu Guizhang goes to work, the other one is to send his children to school and Qin Zheng out.

The driver is going to see his wife and children off.

"OK." Second aunt is too happy.

Gu Qingzhou went downstairs, went to the inverted seat where the servant lived first, and asked Lao sun to prepare for driving.

"Miss canoe, do you want to go out on such a rainy day?" Servant sister-in-law Chen chats with Gu Qingzhou.

"Yes, go and buy some books. Gu Qingzhou road.

Sister Chen said that girls should study more now than before.

Gu Qingzhou has no shelf to talk to them. Lao sun stops at the door.

Gu Qingzhou gets on the car.

When he was seated, he asked Gu, "Miss canoe, where are you going?"

Gu Qingzhou is silent.

"Go to the book store south of Notre Dame road first." Gu Qingzhou road.

Notre Dame road is just next to the Gu mansion. It's two blocks away. It's less than 15 minutes' walk.

I don't want to give it to you at such a close distance.

Waste oil!

But the other side is Miss Gu Qingzhou, who will marry to the governor's office in the future. The servant would also observe his words and feelings, and Lao sun was the most intelligent and prudent. Without saying a word, he drove his car to the book store south of Notre Dame road.

I drive slowly, but it's only five minutes.

The bookstore is not big. There are few guests in rainy days. Behind the glass door, the electric light is on. Orange light, warm, there is a kind of mild warmth.

You can smell the ink in the bookstore.

"Here you are, Miss canoe." Lao sun Dao.

Gu Qingzhou doesn't get off.

She sat in the back, motionless.

Lao sun is a little strange. He is a driver who cares for his family. He has a small salary. He dare not offend the ladies, so he dare not look back.

The carriage is quiet, with the fragrance of rose. It can't be separated.

Lao sun was in a state of confusion.

What does that mean?

After about two minutes, Sun said, "here you are, Miss canoe."

He's very talented, but he doesn't look back. I glanced at my eyes in the rearview mirror and sat in the light boat with arms in my arms. My face was quiet and I seemed to be looking at my grandson.

Old sun clucked.

"... I've always been aboveboard, and I'm not afraid to be checked by my wife and girls." Old sun comforted himself.

This kind of psychological warfare lasted for five minutes. At this time, he was full of doubts and even tense in spirit. The defense line in his heart was the easiest to step over, and he only started after taking care of the boat.

"Lao sun, you always drive your wife out of the house. Has your wife stopped you somewhere recently, and then she left in a rickshaw?" Asked Gu Qingzhou.

Old sun's scalp is numb.

Several times.

But can we say that? The driver is the one who knows the owner's direction when he drives him out. If he is not reliable, he will be dismissed.

Lao sun is very clear about what can be said and what can't be said. He has to rely on this salary to support his family.

"No, Miss canoe." Old sun wants to say firmly, but his voice can't help shivering.

"Old sun, you are not honest!" Gu Qingzhou's thin and delicate hands gently brushed her thick covered bangs, revealing her forehead as bright as jade, and her eyes as bright and cold as ice.

Eyes over the car seat, nailed to sun.

"... now when the master resigns, he will not say that he does not like servants, but that they are not clean, so as not to lose a reputation of being mean and not to recruit servants in the future." Gu Qingzhou reclined on the back of his chair and said quietly.

This is the truth.

Servants have a low status. People who can afford to hire servants have a good reputation. If they quit, they will have a reputation of being mean and hard to bear. They simply say that the servants are not clean, which is just right.

Servants all know, but this bowl of rice is still to eat.

The servants who have been dismissed will not dare to ask for them in the future.

Lao sun is just a driver, and the driver tests his character even more. If he is dismissed by his family, it will be difficult to find something to do in the future, unless he goes to the wharf to do coolie.

But the money for coolie at the wharf can't support the whole family.

Old sun was scared to death. I didn't know how to offend this young lady.

"Miss Qingzhou, your Bodhisattva is kind-hearted. Don't be a servant of mine." The old sun was so worried that he almost cried.

What should he do if he is dismissed? Did you watch the whole family starve to death?

"I'm not going to be stuck with you unless I'm taking me to my wife's car park." Gu Qingzhou said, "grandson, you are so smart. I will not treat you badly if you are my ears and eyes in the future."

Old sun pondered.

Gu Qingzhou has been home for less than a year. She is smart and capable. The master likes her very much.

In this year, a lot of things happened. On the surface, Gu mansion is still those people, but secretly, it has already changed the world.

Compared with Miss canoe, my wife is really out of shape now.

If the old lady had not come, she would not have been qualified to eat at the table.

And miss canoe will marry to the governor's office in the future. Maybe she will take her used servant with her.

Drivers are very important. They usually need to be trusted. In case she gets the favor of Miss Gu Qingzhou, she regards old sun as a confidant, and old sun can work in the governor's office.

He didn't have any big dream. He just wanted to have a higher salary and be able to support all six children.

I dare not offend you.

"Miss canoe, I'm just a servant." Old sun is still frowning, nervous way, "I took you today, some day will also take others to your past place. If you do this, you will be immoral. "

"I know you are careful, grandson. Don't worry. I will never doubt you when you are my eyes and ears. I've always been able to use people and do what I say. " Gu Qingzhou road.

For this reason, I can't help it.

Gu Qingzhou intimidates and lures people. The old sun weighs it over and over again, and says, "Miss Qingzhou, you have a stable seat."

Lao Sun took Gu Qingzhou to the south of the city.

This generation in the south of the city is the old urban area. The old houses, wooden doors and windows, and the people who pass by by by by chance are all wearing long coats. It's not as cold as returning to the previous dynasty.

Lao Sun said to Gu Qingzhou, "my wife gets off at this intersection every time, so I don't have to pick it up. Then she takes a rickshaw and goes southeast."

Where to go, I don't know.

Gu Qingzhou nods.

"Well, it's hard for you, grandson. Let's go back." Gu said.

When returning to Notre Dame Road, Gu Qingzhou went to the clock shop and made a phone call to the other hall of Si Xingqi.

The person who answered the phone was the deputy of Si Xingfu.

"... help me find out." Gu Qingzhou road.

She told the adjutant that in the old downtown area in the south of the city, there was a baby hidden in the complex residential building, about one and a half years old, a baby girl, who had only come in the last six months.

"The neighborhood is full of old neighbors. Suddenly, someone comes and brings a one-and-a-half-year-old child. There will be movement. After all, the child will cry." Gu Qingzhou said, "can you find out the news for me in a day and ask sister-in-law Zhu to call me?"

"Yes, Miss Gu." The Deputy road.

Gu Qingzhou hangs up.

Then she went to the bookshop and bought two English books.

When she came back, there was no one in the living room, and naturally no one asked where she had gone.

On the eve of dinner, Gu received a call.

It's sister Zhu.

"Miss Gu, there is an address. Please take it down." Said Sister Zhu with a smile.

"So fast?" Gu Qingzhou was surprised, less than two hours before and after.

Nancheng district is so large and has a large population...

"OK, you say." Gu Qingzhou road.

Sister Zhu gave an address.

At the same time, sister-in-law Zhu 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 he wants to take people away?"

"No, I'll see it tomorrow." Gu Qingzhou road.

When she answered the phone, second aunt was too downstairs.

Second aunt didn't ask whose phone it was, so Gu didn't explain.

At dinner, aunt Si suddenly said, "is there any chicken soup left yesterday?"

"Half a bowl is left." The Cook said.

"Back to my room for the night." Fourth aunt said too.

The Cook said yes.

"If you want to eat, ask them to make fresh ones. It's not difficult to have a chicken a day. Don't leave the rest. It's not good for children."

"It's OK. It's cold now. It won't be bad for a day." Four aunts too smile way.

They actually said this in front of the whole family.

Qin Zheng is gentle in speech, kind in attitude, and very concerned about the appearance of aunt Si.

Second aunt looked too much in the eyes, inexplicably a little worried: "are they playing tricks? Recently, why are they all so strange? "

But the second aunt was too confused. Her eyes rolled in the faces of all the people. She had no clue, so she had to leave them.
