Fast through the cannon fodder of the mission to counterattack

Chapter 342
Meng Li glanced at Gu Hean, a 15-year-old boy.

The childishness on his face faded slightly, seeing Meng Li looking at him, he smiled faintly at Meng Li.

Meng Li also laughed.

Gu Yide looked like he was nearly fifty years old. After he got married, he had no children for many years before adopting three children.

Fat, with soft brows and eyes, no aggressiveness, good looks.

If you laugh, you will be more friendly, and beggars always like to beg in front of Gu's mansion, so he always asks his servants to give some.

The family really can't get rid of the pot, so if you ask him, he is willing to lend food to help people tide over the difficulties.

When food was in short supply, he was able to stick to the principle of not raising prices, because he also offended many businessmen who wanted to raise prices.

He was targeted by small local officials, but Gu Yide has a way to resolve these problems.

If it wasn't for such a dispersal of wealth, the Gu family's fortune would be stronger than it is now.

The breakfast was already placed on the table, Gu Yide started, and the rest started.

The breakfast is relatively simple, just porridge and buns, and a few side dishes.

After it was too early, Gu Yide hurried out with Gu Hean, and Gu Hean was learning how to do business with Gu Yide.

Meng Li and Gu Xianzhi stayed in the mansion with nothing to do.

Gu Xianzhi suggested to Meng Li:
"Let's go to the store for a stroll. I heard from Dad that there are beautiful fabrics in the store, so we can choose by ourselves."

Meng Li pondered for a moment:
"Which store is it?"

"The store on East Street."

Meng Li refused:
"I'm not in good health. I didn't sleep well last night. If I want to go back and lie down for a while, I won't go."

Gu Xianzhi didn't feel anything.

It's fine if you don't go.

He didn't force Meng Li anymore.

Meng Li walked towards his room, actually a little speechless, Gu Xianzhi is a very contradictory person, he hates the client and wants to take revenge on the client, but he feels really boring alone.

She wants someone to be with her, someone to talk with and avoid being bored.

But she doesn't really want to get in touch with Gu Xianzhi, it's not interesting.

When Meng Li returned to her room, Cai'er made the bed for her. She must have gone to eat, but there was no one there.

There are not many Gu family members, just a few maids, a few servants, two cooks, and a housekeeper.

Counting down to ten or twenty people, they did not employ people wantonly or buy slaves.

At noon, Gu Yide and Gu He'an didn't come back for dinner, only Gu Xianzhi ate with her.

The two were relatively silent, Meng Li ate dinner, took a nap, and took Cai'er out for a stroll.

It's really boring in the mansion.

This town is actually quite big, and it is also a rich place, which is about the same size as some county towns.

Meng Li deliberately went to the shop where Feng Yuanzhen was working. The Gu family had a wide range of businesses, including cloth, grain and oil, and even a pawn shop.

This store sells cloth, and women like to dress up, so Gu Xianzhi often goes to see if there are new designs and materials on the market, so he also had the opportunity to get to know Feng Yuanzhen.

The two are now in a relationship.

Meng Lixiao, Gu Xianzhi would find it difficult to get rid of Feng Yuanzhen.

I had sent Feng Yuanzhen a token earlier, and it was very difficult to get it back. If I didn't take it back, it would be a bomb.

Meng Li brought Cai'er into the shop. The client was not in good health and didn't come here often. The shop assistants saw her and didn't know her.

Come forward to greet you warmly:

"Miss, what do you want to buy?"

Cai'er looked at Meng Li and wanted to say something, but Meng Li waved his hand:
"just looking around."

The guy was cheerful and said:
"Good."

Meng Li took Cai'er to look at the cloth and found that the color was okay. Meng Li stretched out his hand to touch the material. The material was divided into good and bad. Some materials really felt very bad to the touch, but the price was relatively low.

Meng Li was also thinking about whether to make two pieces of clothes for himself to wear, because it would be boring if he couldn't practice.

After thinking about it, I gave up. I can buy some books later, and reading in the room can pass the day. Making clothes is more troublesome.

Thinking of this, Meng Li no longer reached out to touch the cloth.

I planned to leave, I originally planned to see if I could meet Feng Yuanzhen, although he was included in the plot reception, but Meng Li still wanted to see it with his own eyes.

Feng Yuanzhen is not unavailable.

Seeing Meng Li retracting his hand, the man couldn't help asking:

"Miss, don't you see anything you like?"

Meng Li smiled:
"I'll go back and think about it."

The man was a little disappointed, but he covered it up in an instant. He smiled at Meng Li, who turned around and was about to step out when a carriage stopped at the door of the shop.

The coachman yelled:
"The goods are ready."

When Meng Li went out, the coachman was an old man who had worked for the Gu family for many years. He knew Meng Li, saw Meng Li, and greeted him:
"Second Miss, you have come to the shop."

Meng Li nodded:
"Look at the cloth."

The coachman was a little embarrassed and said:
"Then... do you like it?"

"After unloading the goods, I can send them back to you."

Meng Li shook his head: "Don't worry, not for now."

The coachman smiled at Meng Li, the creases on his face squeezed together, he rubbed his hands, not knowing what to say.

Meng Li stepped forward and stood across the street. After a while, a few people came out, among them was Feng Yuanzhen. He was wearing a green shirt, with a bookish look, and he also helped with the delivery.

Move things in there.

In fact, Feng Yuanzhen was able to enter the cashier's office to help Mr. Accountant because he could know a few words. Otherwise, he could only do these rough jobs.

Wearing the green shirt all day is probably the most affordable outfit, and I don’t want to change it. Wearing it like this, I don’t look like a handyman. If I squeeze into the ranks of scholars, I don’t think I can be counted in the social class of laborers.

During the whole process, Feng Yuanzhen was more gentle and reluctant to part with his own strength. It was better to move less things than others every time.

Not knowing what the coachman said, Feng Yuanzhen looked towards Meng Li, met Meng Li's eyes, Meng Li immediately covered his heart and asked Cai'er to help her.

A look like I'm tired again.

Feng Yuanzhen couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the second young lady of the Gu family is as beautiful as she is beautiful, but her body is weak...

Only the Gu family can support such a charming lady, right?
It's better to be the eldest lady, lively and agile, with every frown and smile captivating, but I don't know why she doesn't want to talk to him these two days.

He also spent all the money given to him to buy books last time.

Feng Yuanzhen thought of Gu Xianzhi, and his whole body became energetic and energetic.

Fantasizing while working, even fantasizing about the wedding night in the bridal chamber.

Especially dare to think.

Cai'er asked Meng Li with concern:

"Miss, let's go back, I think you are tired again."

Meng Li glanced at Feng Yuanzhen again, nodded, and walked back slowly with Cai'er.

Normally, he was used to using force to solve problems, but this time without force, Meng Li still had a headache for this task.

Some things are more difficult to do without trace.

On the way back, Meng Li bought a lot of books. The client also knew how to read and asked Cai'er to bring them to her.
