"Jiuyue, since you are our Cheng'er's friend, when you come to our house, it is like coming to your own home. If you need anything, just ask."

Lin Jiuyue was a little embarrassed.

"Then why are you so embarrassed? Madam, I just arrived in the capital, and I didn't have time to prepare any gifts. I came to the door empty-handed. This..."

Mrs. Gu waved her hand.

"It's September. You don't know this. My Cheng'er is away from the capital all year round and doesn't have many friends. When I go home on weekdays, I rarely bring friends to my house. I'm not happy that you can come to my house to play. Well, how can you dislike it?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

Mr. Gu, Gu Chengyan's grandfather, was a man who fought with the late emperor. The emperor was able to sit in that position back then, and it was thanks to Mr. Gu.

Although Mr. Gu has now withdrawn, Mrs. Gu said that she didn't believe it when Gu Chengyan didn't have many friends.

There is a saying that goes, "If you are poor in the busy city, no one cares about you; if you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives." ’ With the Gu family’s status, even if Gu Chengyan has not been in the capital all year round, it is impossible for him to have no ‘friends’. As for whether this friend is a real friend, I don't know.

"Mom, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it later. Let Yue Yue and his brother and sister go wash up first."

Mrs. Gu heard what Gu Chengyan said. He patted his forehead.

"Oh, look at me, I almost forgot about the main thing. September, you go wash up first, and then tell me what you have experienced along the way after you have cleaned up. I am very curious. "

When Mrs. Gu said before that Gu Chengyan didn't have many friends, she was being modest, but she had never seen her son bring any female friends back home.

This suddenly brought a woman back, couldn't Mrs. Gu be curious?

Lin Jiuyue nodded. No welcome.

On the way to escape, I basically didn't take care of myself.

Even after washing in the space, the exposed skin will be deliberately dirty, just to reduce the sense of presence.

Now that he could take care of things, Lin Jiuyue naturally couldn't let go of this opportunity.

"That's annoying."

"Come here! Take Miss Lin and Mr. Lin down to wash up."

"Mom, Qiye doesn't need to make arrangements. Just go directly to your son's place."

If he hadn't been in the capital now, Gu Chengyan would have wanted to put Lin Jiuyue in his courtyard, fearing that word would spread and damage Lin Jiuyue's reputation.

Mrs. Gu didn't expect that her son would take people directly to her courtyard. She was stunned and nodded in agreement.

"This is your friend, you can arrange whatever you want."

in the room.

Lin Jiuyue looked at the full bucket of water, then looked at the servant standing aside, and frowned.

"You guys should go out first, I don't like people waiting around."

Lin Jiuyue always felt weird when someone was watching him when taking a shower or something.

I had seen this scene while watching TV before, and I was still thinking that it would be too embarrassing to be watched taking a shower like this! I didn’t expect that I would also encounter it!

Servant, look at me and I'll look at you.

"Miss Lin, this..."

Lin Jiuyue waved his hand.

"You go out first. If you need anything, I will naturally call you."

The servant hesitated for a moment, then walked out slowly.

After the person left, Lin Jiuyue instantly felt much more relaxed.

I am not an aborigine, so my habits are naturally different from theirs. Normally, those things can only be done by servants, but when it comes to washing and sleeping, I am still not used to having people watching. I always feel awkwardly tight.

After Lin Jiuyue finished washing and came out, the servants took Lin Jiuyue to the main hall.

I thought there would only be Gu Chengyan and Lin Qiye, and at most one more, Gu Chengyan's beautiful mother-in-law. Unexpectedly, when Lin Jiuyue arrived, he saw a lot of people sitting in the main hall.

Lin Jiuyue was stunned for a moment.

Lin Jiuyue was not the only one who was dumbfounded. Everyone else in the room was also stunned!

Especially Gu Chengyan’s beautiful mother.

"Oh, is this really September? When you first came to the house, your face looked dirty. I didn't expect that after dressing up like this, you will be more beautiful than all the ladies."

At this time, Gu Chengyan was also stunned.

When they were escaping from famine with Lin Jiuyue, everyone was dirty on the road. Even if they were not dirty, they would make themselves dirty, and they didn't pay attention to appearance at all.

With this outfit, Gu Chengyan felt that Lin Jiuyue was more beautiful than the ladies in the capital.

Lin Jiuyue felt a little embarrassed after being praised by Gu Chengyan's beautiful mother.

"Mrs. Gu is joking, how can a country girl in September compare to those ladies in the capital?"

"Why can't they be compared? I think they're pretty good."

Mrs. Gu stood up, walked to Lin Jiuyue, took Lin Jiuyue's hand, and pulled Lin Jiuyue to sit next to her.

"What are you doing standing here? There are no outsiders here, sit down and talk."

Lin Jiuyue:......

Isn’t it said that wealthy families have many rules? Why does it feel like the Gu family doesn't seem like a family with many rules?

Is it because the Gu family was a military general?

Just when Lin Jiuyue was confused, Mrs. Gu spoke.

"Our Gu family is a military general, and the population in the mansion is simple. There are not so many rules. In September, you can be more casual and don't be nervous."

Lin Jiuyue smiled and nodded.

It's better to have fewer rules. I really don't like people with too many rules.

Not to mention that too many rules are tiring, the population alone is enough for me to recognize.

Besides, I am an ‘outsider’. I don't understand the rules of this dynasty. I don't know where I have made others unhappy or broken other people's rules.

Mrs. Gu took a sneak peek at her son and saw that her son was still staring at Lin Jiuyue blankly. There are more smiles on the face.

"September, when you didn't come here just now, Cheng'er already told us about the situation of you two siblings. I'm sorry, are you scared to escape from the famine all the way?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled and shook his head.

"We walked on mountainous roads most of the time, so we weren't scared at all."

Mrs. Gu gently patted the back of Lin Jiuyue's hand.

"It's good that you're not scared. By the way, I heard Cheng'er say that you haven't had time to apply for a new household registration. If you need help, just ask. You're welcome."

Lin Jiuyue glanced at Gu Chengyan.

Unexpectedly, Gu Chengyan explained these things to his family so quickly.

I don’t know how much he said. He probably didn’t reveal his abnormality, right?

Lin Jiuyue thought of this and looked at his brother again.

Lin Qiye saw her sister looking at her, as if she knew what Lin Jiuyue was going to ask. Chao Lin Jiuyue shook his head gently.

Seeing Lin Qiye shaking his head towards him, Lin Jiuyue breathed a sigh of relief.
