Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

"Hmph, Your Highness only knows how to make fun of me." Gu Qiongsi took a handkerchief and helped Li Junze wipe the sweat from his forehead, but she said in a scolding tone.

"I'm not kidding. Ever since I've been with Si'er, I no longer think of any other woman. What should I do?" After Li Junze said this, he kissed Gu Qiongsi's exposed shoulder.

"Then, Your Highness, when will you come over? Si'er will let you experience a different feeling." After Gu Qiongsi finished speaking, he looked at Li Junze with a mysterious smile on his face.

"I don't know. I can't be sure. My grandfather is keeping a close watch on me now. He won't let me leave the house, so I can only wait and see."

"Oh, okay."

After Gu Qiongsi finished speaking, a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

Li Junze held her and comforted her for a while. Then he heard Jinzi coughing outside the window, so he had to get dressed and get up.

"Your Highness," Gu Qiongsi stopped Li Junze when he turned around and was about to open the door, and asked, "If one day your grandfather asked you to kill me, would you obey?"

Li Junze heard the anger in Gu Qiongsi's words, so he had to turn around and pinch her nose.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could my grandfather let me do such a thing? Oh, and you should stay at home recently. Don't go out. It might be unsafe."

Gu Qiongsi nodded helplessly. She had many complaints about Li Junze following Wang Zhuo's words, but she didn't want to reveal it too much. She just said that because she couldn't hold it back.

After seeing off Li Junze and Jin Zi, Nanny Bai came over tremblingly to apologize to Gu Qiongsi.

She really didn't know before that Madam Gu had such a relationship with Li Junze, otherwise, she would never dare to disrespect Gu Qiongsi even if she was beaten to death.

Gu Qiongsi didn't care and asked her to boil some hot water as she would take a bath soon.

This time, Nanny Bai was very eager to agree and quickly went to boil water.

Unfortunately, it was too late for her to apologize. Gu Qiongsi had just finished bathing when the matchmaker brought several little girls into Gu Qiongsi's courtyard.

It turned out that Gu Qiongsi had made an appointment with the matchmaker yesterday, asking her to bring someone over today for her to choose.

There were seven little girls in total. Since they all came from poor families, they were all pale and thin. They were not tall and had no flesh on their bodies.

"Matchmaker, do you have any other girls?" Gu Qiongsi looked up unhappily and asked the matchmaker who came over.

The matchmaker showed a hint of displeasure on her face. What kind of girl did such a small family want?

"Oh, Madam Gu, these are the best we have here. The others are even more unsightly." The matchmaker said with a wry smile.

Gu Qiong Sicong took out a purse from his sleeve, which was full of silver ingots, and threw it on the small table beside him with a "bang".

When the matchmaker saw this, she immediately changed her expression and said, "Yes, yes, we have whatever Madam Gu wants, hehe..."

After she finished speaking, she winked at the wretched man behind her, who immediately understood and went out with the seven little girls.

About a cup of tea later, the man brought five more women over.

Gu Qiongsi took a quick look and thought, well, this one is obviously much better than the previous one.

Not only did they have nice figures, but their faces were also pretty, so she quickly selected two maids to stay.

One is the beautiful Sanni'er, and the other is the timid but pretty Zhaodi.

Sanni'er and Zhaodi were delighted to see that they were chosen. After looking at each other, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to express their gratitude.

These women were either unwelcome at home or came from poor families. They were sold to matchmakers and lived an even more miserable life. They only had one meal a day, which was just plain porridge.

Now, although Gu Qiongsi lives in a small courtyard, he has a nanny by his side and can afford to buy a maid, so he must be living a good life.

When the matchmaker took the money and prepared to leave, Gu Qiongsi took out Nanny Bai's indenture contract and threw it to the matchmaker and the others.

Nanny Bai's face immediately turned pale, and she knelt on the ground with a plop, "Madam Gu, I am your Highness's servant, you can't do this..."

"I know I was wrong. I really know I was wrong. Please give me another chance, Madam Gu."

At this moment, Nanny Bai was extremely regretful. She wondered why she had been so blinded by greed and done such a treasonous thing.

What she didn't expect was that Li Junze actually asked Jinzi to deliver her indenture as well. She had always thought that she was borrowed here to help temporarily and would definitely go back after a while.

Now it seems that I really underestimated Gu Qiongsi.

Gu Qiongsi didn't even look at her. He waved his hand and asked the matchmaker to drag her out.

Gu Qiongsi listened to Nanny Bai's pig-slaughtering screams without a ripple in her heart. She even felt that it was all her own fault.

The two little girls she had just selected were completely frightened and had no idea what kind of master they had chosen.

Gu Qiongsi looked back and saw the two people with terrified faces. She showed a trace of fatigue and said,

"You two don't need to be nervous. Aunt Bai has made a big mistake. As long as you do your job well according to my instructions, I won't make things difficult for you."

After hearing this, the two of them nodded in agreement and expressed their loyalty to Gu Qiongsi.

Looking at the two of them being so submissive, Gu Qiongsi couldn't help but think of Chunxiu, the little maid who had been with him for many years. He didn't know where she was now or how she was doing.

"Since you two are following me, why don't you change your names? Sanni'er will be called Bitao, and Zhaodi will be called Baixing."

"Yes, thank you Madam Gu for the name."

Next, Gu Qiongsi not only assigned tasks to the two of them, but also reminded them to set aside two hours every day to practice sitting in the jar.

Gu Qiongsi had already placed two large vats in the west room where the two of them were going to live. The edges of the vats were very thin, and it would certainly be very difficult for them to sit on them in the early stages.

Naturally, the two of them didn't know why Gu Qiongsi asked them to do such exercises, but they didn't dare to ask more questions. They nodded and said that they would practice seriously.

"Half a month later, I will personally check your practice results. Whoever practices the best between the two of you will be rewarded by me."

Seeing them like this, Gu Qiongsi was worried that they would collude and discuss something behind their backs, so he told them to compete in half a month, directly putting the two of them in opposing positions.
