After the disillusionment of the hope of "Si Xingfu's wife", Gu Qingzhou lost his obsession with cycling.

She doesn't care.

She doesn't need to explain anything to anyone. She is not the wife of anyone, so she has no obligation to anyone.

Her future path is more clear but firm.

Si Xingfu helped her to deal with Qin Zheng, but he saved him twice by himself, and it's the grace of saving life. How can he repay it.

Gu Qingzhou owes him nothing.

Thanks for saving life twice, he should do more for Gu Qingzhou, and Gu Qingzhou deserves it. She doesn't have to worry about it.

After all this pressure is gone, Gu's mood improves.

"What to eat at night?" The Secretary asked her.

"Fried shrimps with tarragon." Gu said.

She was in a good mood when she could think of eating a certain dish. After a careful look, Si Xingfu saw that she was really OK, and didn't go deep into it.

Si xingxu is very concerned about her, but unfortunately he is too busy recently to worry about her. He is planning a big event, which takes all his energy.

Gu Qingzhou was really tired. She sat in front of the fireplace, dried her hair, dozed off on a sand chair, and almost dropped the cashmere blanket around her into the fireplace.

Her hair was completely dry, and she was carried up to the second floor by Si Xingfu.

She woke up in the middle, smiled at Si Xingfu, and went on sleeping.

There was a relief smile on her face. It was sweet.

She also knew to smile in her sleep. She laughed so sweetly that she was sure that she was OK and put her on the bed.

In the afternoon, he had to meet a very important person, so he went out first and told sister-in-law Zhu to cook for Gu in the boat: "shrimp should be fresh, and the mouth of the boat is the most poisonous. She can eat all the shrimp that is a little bit worse."

"I see, young commander. Hurry up." Sister Zhu said with a smile, thinking that young marshal was hurting people. She was really careful everywhere.

When Gu Qingzhou woke up, it was dusk, and the street light in the yard was on.

Lying at the window, I saw that the rain had already stopped, the courtyard was washed clean, the leaves of the low holly trees were bright, and it was a plant of emerald.

The path's rain flower stone, exudes the colorful awn.

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 hesitation, and it took her a long time to recover.

She changed and combed her hair, ready to go home.

When she went downstairs, sister-in-law Zhu was busy in the kitchen with smoke curling up from the kitchen. She had half a hot meal.

"Miss Gu, are you awake?" When sister-in-law Zhu turned around, she saw Gu Qingzhou and greeted her warmly. "Sit fast, and the meal will be better."

Gu Qingzhou sat at the dinner table, saw the fresh shrimp fried with Penghao, and her appetite came up. She wanted to eat and then went back.

Soon, sister-in-law Zhu served up the pork ribs soup, and the dishes were all ready.

Gu Qingzhou invites sister-in-law Zhu to have some food together. She can't eat all by herself.

Zhu sat down at the bottom of Gu Qingzhou and had dinner while chatting with him.

Gu Qingzhou had a good time.

"Miss Gu is in a good mood today and has a good meal." Zhu Saodao.

The problem that bothered Gu Qingzhou for more than a month has finally been solved. Of course, she is in a good mood.

"It's shrimp." Gu Qingzhou road.

"You're ready, young commander," said sister-in-law Zhu

After Gu Qingzhou went home, Si Xingfu didn't come to see 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's better to be an old newspaper with little news."

Gu Shaowei was surprised.

"A little." Gu Shaodao.

Gu Shao likes to collect books. Even if the old newspapers are in his hands, they should be neatly arranged and put in the cabinet on the shelf.

He opened the cupboard and found a lot of old newspapers.

"... this is nonsense. It's only about the scandal of celebrities and senior officials. It's not credible." Gu shaodao, "it was the year before last year. Last year, my family didn't subscribe to this newspaper. Dad didn't like it very much."

Gu Qingzhou nods.

She took it all.

"Zhouzhou, how do you want to read the old newspaper?" Gu Shao is curious.

Gu Qingzhou perfunctorily said, "I'm looking for something."

"What are you looking for?" Gu Shao asked, "do you want me to help you find it?"

Gu Qingzhou shakes his head and says, "don't worry about elder brother, I'll go back first."

She didn't care to eat, and she was lying in the pile of old newspapers from morning till night.

When Gu Shao came in, she had a notebook in her hand and copied a lot of things.

The old newspaper of the previous year has been turned over by Gu Qingzhou.

She's got something, she's got a name.

Gu remembers the name, takes a rickshaw ride and goes to a newspaper called "the floating world Evening News".

Before she came here, Gu Qingzhou specially dressed up. She wore a royal blue cheongsam, with a mink coat on the outside and a British lady hat. The edge of the hat was very wide, with a black silk mesh, which was inlaid with several small rubies.

She had a large red lip, and the ruby sparkled against her delicate jaw.

As soon as she entered the newspaper office, a small compiler came up and said warmly, "this lady, who are you looking for?"

Gu Qingzhou is dressed like this, and half of his face is covered by a net. He looks mature in his teens.

She lowered her voice deliberately and asked, "is Jin man there?"

Jinman is the main writer of the floating world evening news. His story supports 80% of the sales volume of the evening news.

Look at this lady. I'm afraid she's here to provide some gossip. She wants to board.

"In." Small compiler, and then rushed inside the office shouting, "master, someone is looking for you."

Jinman is a pseudonym.

The man who came out was a man in his thirties or seventies. He was a little old, with a slovenly beard. He was wearing a very old long shirt and his sleeves were half worn.

His hair is in a mess.

Suddenly I saw this fashionable lady looking for him. Jin Man rubbed his messy hair and asked, "madam, what do you want to do with me?"

"Master Jin, I appreciate your literary talent very much. I have a little story. I wonder if it can come into your eyes?" Gu Qingzhou's voice became even louder, "it's all my family's business."

Looking after the light boat should be a new upstart.

There are so many absurd things in new families. Sometimes you can't think of breaking the sky.

It's a good thing that some people provide materials. The Faust evening news is a kind of entertainment, not a serious newspaper. The more pompous and novel the story, the more selling points it has.

"Of course, this lady, please come in." Jin man said that he was not enthusiastic.

But Gu Qingzhou said, "find a teahouse and talk slowly, will you?"

When they arrived at the elegant room of the teahouse, Gu Qingzhou found a place by the window, so that her face was against the light, and Jin man could not see her expression clearly.

When the boy brought tea, Gu began to tell her story.

Her story is very absurd, saying that her stepmother came to her house and had a head and tail with her husband. Now her husband is going to drive her out and marry her stepmother.

Her stepmother first seduced her husband with her 14-year-old stepsister.

"Really?" Jinman was also stunned, deeply impressed by the story.

"Madam, can you give me some details? In this way, it will be more evidence-based, increase credibility, and perhaps give you an opinion. " Jin Man Dao.

Gu Qingzhou looks depressed.

She lowered her head in silence and turned the tea cup in her hand: "I don't want to fight anymore. This world woman can get along even if she is divorced. I want to go to Nanyang to try my luck. Maybe I can marry an indigenous rich man.

I remember you once wrote a story about the famous lady in Hong Kong who was sold to the British inspector by her father. She didn't like the old man, escaped from Hong Kong to Yuecheng, and then went to the mainland. "

Jinman remembers the story.

It was also an accident that he met the woman. At that time, he paid her a fee for the journey.

The story is very good. He wrote it in three installments. The sales volume of the last issue of the newspaper increased by three times. The boss was very happy and gave him half a year's salary as a bonus.

"Is that story true?" Gu Qingzhou raised his eyes and asked.

Her voice is soft and her breath is blue. Behind the black silk net, a pair of eyes are particularly bright, like a leopard in the dark, inexplicably frightening.

"... of course it is!" Jin Man Dao.

"I don't believe it!" "Her father is an official in Hong Kong, and her marriage to her family is also an inspector in the streets. She left the dock and could not be found," Gu said

Jinman's story, 70% is true.

He hates to be questioned.

"Madam, the hole in the wharf is too big. It's too easy for a man to escape from the wharf." Jin Man Dao.

"It's like Yuecheng. It's hard to walk alone on the wharf. Isn't Hong Kong better than Yuecheng?" Gu Qingzhou is curious.

Jinman knew that this lady was a housewife with little experience.

Today, I want to give her more insight.

"Ma'am, do you know what kind of boat to take? It's not easy to be checked?" Jinman lowered his voice.

Gu Qingzhou shakes his head.

"Silk." Jin Man Dao.

Gu Qingzhou deliberately exaggerates and laughs: "is silk very precious? Why can't silk be checked? "

"It's a self-evident rule on the sea route. Generally, the whole ship is made of silk, which means that opium paste is hidden in it. Those who dare to smuggle opium are all saying hello to the top, and the people at the wharf won't look into it. " Jinman's voice is lower.

"You know everything?" As soon as Gu Qingzhou picked the corner of his lip, he was inexplicably obsequious.

She said this, is to the man biggest affirmation.

Jin man was elated and said, "nature."

"The most convenient way for Yuecheng to go by water is by boat Tangjia?" Gu Qingzhou asked him.

"No, it's the Chen family." Jin man said, "Chen's family is related to the British people. Every time they go on a boat, they go to India. Opium paste, arms, etc. the military government and the Green Gang dare not interfere in Chen's boat."

Gu chuckled, "I still don't believe it."

Jin man suddenly realized that he was too showy, said something he shouldn't have said, and stopped in a hurry.

As newspaper people, they know a lot of secret information, which can't be said.

But opposite is a woman, and is a very beautiful woman, Jinman also has the bad nature of men, like to show off 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 the boat, he sat in the rickshaw and carefully rubbed the lipstick on his lips, with a faint smile on his lips.

Ship Chen home!

Yuecheng is really a place of hiding dragon and crouching tiger!
