The villain is cute and cute: I am not a male god

Chapter 398 Chapter 398: Villain 9 Concubine (4)

The Gu family's breakfast has a fixed hour. On weekdays, everyone will arrive at the dining room early, and then wait for the master and the eldest wife to have dinner together.

Now that Gu Yuanzhang is not at home, the highest status in the family is naturally the eldest wife Yao Nuanshu.

It's just strange that Yao Nuanshu is here today, but Su Jiuxi hasn't come yet.

Although Su Jiuxi was very favored in Gu's mansion and was the envy and envy of most people, she was actually very good at being a human being, and she treated Yao Nuanshu with even more respect on weekdays, making it impossible to find any faults.

"Sister, why hasn't Xiaojiu come yet?"

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, the second concubine Fang Lan who was sitting next to Yao Nuanshu couldn't help but approached her and asked in a low voice.

"Jiuyi is always busy with the nobles, maybe she overslept?"

Hearing Fang Lan's words, the woman in the red cheongsam sitting outside the dining table couldn't help but whispered coldly.

The person who spoke was none other than Eighth Aunt Taiqu Yunxuan.

"Jiuxi is not a person without propriety."

Yao Nuanshu took a look at Qu Yunxuan, said something softly, and then she turned to look at the maid beside her: "Chunmei, go to the yard of Mrs. Jiu to see if something happened to her. ?”

"It's the eldest lady."

After listening to Yao Nuanshu's instructions, the maid Chunmei was about to go out when she saw Xia Beibei in a light green cheongsam walking in gracefully.

"Sister, I'm sorry, all sisters have been waiting for a long time!"

Xia Beibei smiled at Yao Nuanshu, then walked slowly to the seat beside her and sat down.

"Jiu Yiniang, your face?"

Today, Xia Beibei's wavy hair was not coiled up, but scattered lazily on her face, half-covered, barely able to cover a smear of blood on her face.

Gu Zijin is the eldest son of Gu, and he usually sits on the other side of Yao Nuanshu. From his angle, he can see the scars on Xia Beibei's face.

That's why he was the first to take the initiative to ask.

"Jiuxi, what did you do?"

Yao Nuanshu also saw the blood on Xia Beibei's face at this time, and she just raised her hand to touch it.

Xia Beibei quickly hid for a while: "Sister, I'm fine. Last night...uh, I didn't sleep well. I kept everyone waiting for a long time. Let's eat quickly!"

"Tsk tsk."

Hearing Xia Beibei's words, the others didn't say anything. Qu Yunxuan couldn't help curling her lips, and gave Xia Beibei a cold look: "Jiumei, don't you usually care about your face the most? Don't make any mistakes, if you accidentally disfigure your face, what should you do if the old man comes back and sees it?"

"Thank you eighth sister for your concern."

Xia Beibei smiled at Qu Yunxuan with complicated eyes.

Qu Yunxuan is only three years older than Su Jiuxi, and the two started at about the same time.

The Qu family is considered a big family in the provincial capital. Although Qu Yunxuan is a concubine in the Qu family, she has been educated and reasonable since she was a child. She was originally fascinated by Gu Yuanzhang's demeanor, and fell in love with him, thinking that she would become his best friend. A special one, who knows...

Not long after she married into the Gu family, Gu Yuanzhang brought Su Jiuxi back from Shencheng.

Su Jiuxi is a girl who has one thing on the surface and one thing on the other. She is especially good at pretending to be pitiful in front of the uncle and the eldest wife, and even coaxing all the young ladies and young masters around. She is also very good at pleasing people. Gu Yuanzhang depends on her for everything. Everyone in the provincial capital knew that Gu Yuanzhang's Ninth Aunt was a capable and beautiful beauty, but who knew about her Eighth Aunt?

For this reason, Qu Yunxuan has always held a grudge against Su Jiuxi, and even always wanted to kill her.

The tit-for-tat confrontation between the two has not been for a day or two. The other sisters in the mansion act as if they have not seen the smell of gunpowder between the two, so what should they do...

Yao Nuanshu was very enthusiastic and continued to bring food to Xia Beibei, and even ordered the maid to invite a doctor for her early.

Xia Beibei took into account the faces of all the people at the banquet and remained calm.

After eating and returning to her house, Lixiang was still kneeling in the yard, while Yunhui was watching her.

"Aunt Jiu, you're back!"

Seeing Xia Beibei's figure, Yun Hui immediately called out loudly.

"Ah."

Xia Beibei nodded, then slowly took out a silk handkerchief from her arms, and wiped it on her cheeks, most of the dried blood was wiped away by her.

Naturally, there would be no wounds on her face, because the blood belonged to Lixiang.

"Nine aunts! Nine aunts!"

At this moment, a figure ran over in a hurry.

As soon as Xia Beibei turned his head, he saw the handsome Gu Zijin in a white shirt and dress.

"Zijin, what's wrong?"

Xia Beibei turned around and asked.

"your face……"

Gu Zijin took a bottle of medicine powder, and then looked at Xia Beibei's face blankly.

"Oh, it's okay, it's actually Lixiang's blood, this girl dared to steal my things, I cut her face when I got angry in the morning, and the blood splashed on my face, I didn't notice it, After all, this is a scandal in my yard, so I dare not publicize it."

Speaking of this, Xia Beibei looked at the medicine bottle in Gu Zijin's hand with a smile: "Is this for me? Western medicine? It's very expensive!"

"Ah."

Hearing Xia Beibei's words, Gu Zijin smiled faintly: "Jiu Yiniang, you are the best to me, and I should be nice to you."

"Really?"

Xia Beibei took the medicine bottle from Gu Zijin's hand and played with it for a while: "You kid, do you have something to ask of me? Or did you cause trouble in the shop?"

"No, no, it's actually..."

Seeing that Xia Beibei understood his intentions, Gu Zijin couldn't help but smile awkwardly: "Jiu Yiniang, I have a friend, she... Her shop is having some difficulties for the time being, I know the accountant's husband is the most obedient Jiu Yiniang said what you said, can you tell them to collect the rent later?"

"Oh? Your friend? Which store?"

Hearing Gu Zijin's words, Xia Beibei couldn't help but focus his eyes slightly, and asked curiously.

"It's the Ningjia Teahouse on Xiangshun Street."

Ningjia Teahouse!

Upon hearing this, Xia Beibei immediately searched Su Jiuxi's memory for information about this store.

That teahouse...is a very ordinary small teahouse on Xiangshun Street. Because many shops on this street are owned by the Gu family, Su Jiuxi often takes people there to inspect. She probably remembers that the shop that rented this shop was a For father and daughter, the two depend on each other for a living by running teahouses.

Well, yes!Boss Ning's daughter was very beautiful, but in Su Jiuxi's memory, that girl was very rude and uneducated, she didn't like it.

Is it...

"Zijin!"

Xia Beibei raised his head and glanced at Gu Zijin: "I happen to be fine today, why don't you take me to that teahouse to have a look? If business is not good, you can't survive just by delaying paying the rent. If you want to help others, you have to Help to the end—teaching a man to fish is worse than giving him a fish!"

Hearing Xia Beibei's words, Gu Zijin's eyes lit up: "Thank you Jiu Yiniang, Jiu Yiniang will wait for you, let's go together, you must have a way, right?"

"Well, wait for me!"

Xia Beibei smiled faintly, then turned his head, and gave Lixiang a cold look: "Damn girl, I'll spare you this time, don't come in and help me comb my hair!"

"Thank you Mrs. Jiu! Thank you Mrs. Jiu!"

Hearing Xia Beibei's words, Lixiang immediately struggled to stand up. Although her legs were already numb, she still limped and tried her best to follow behind Xia Beibei.

The two returned to the bedroom and closed the door. Xia Beibei, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around, raised his hand and strangled Lixiang's neck: "I'm going out in a while, and you have to do something for me before I come back." , if you can't do it well, I'll send you to... Huangquan Road today!"

"Yes Yes!"

Lixiang felt Xia Beibei's cold and ruthless gaze, and she immediately agreed in a panic: "Aunt Jiu, please tell me, this slave will do her best to make up for it!"

"I hope you can."

Xia Beibei let go of his hand, leaned against Li Xiang's ear and whispered a few words, Li Xiang immediately nodded hurriedly: "I know, I know! This servant will definitely do it properly!"
