My name is Chang An, your name is Gu Li

Chapter 377: Chang An bullies a good lady?

"Then let's arrange it now. I'm afraid I'll sleep too late tomorrow and won't be able to arrange it." Gu Li sat up from Chang An's arms, raised his head slightly and shouted:

"Sister Qi! Sister Qi!"

After hearing this shout, Chang Qi and Chang Qi came directly in from the door.

"During this period of time, I'm worried that something might happen to Chang Lang, so could I ask you to follow Chang Lang for a few days?" Gu Li asked at this time.

Chang Qi and Chang Qi looked at each other and nodded, and the elder sister said, "Let me follow the young master, and my sister will be fine at home."

"It's good to have someone to follow." Gu Li felt relieved at this moment, and then said: "Sister Qi, you only need to follow Chang Lang when he is on duty every day. The rest of the time, you can do whatever you want. Just put the money you spend on my account."

Chang Qi bowed slightly: "Thank you, Sanniang."

At this time, two pairs of big eyes also noticed Chang Qi (hmm Chang Qi) who suddenly appeared in the room, and then called out sweetly: "Auntie Da, Auntie Er!"

The two maids turned around and smiled at them. Erguai was holding a doll in his hand and waved it at the two of them: "Play with the eldest and second aunts, and play with my father and mother."

Gu Li also smiled and said, "Go ahead. If you are tired, you can rest together."

"Thank you, Sanniang."

Afterwards, the two of them acted as playmates.

......

The next day, Chang An went to work as usual, and Chang Qi also set out early to explore the way. In the morning, everything was normal, and after sending Chang An to the gate of the imperial city, Chang Qi sat down in front of the nearest bookstall, put down a dozen copper coins, and started reading.

The book stall owner also carefully looked at the woman in front of him. She looked clean, but she was dressed like a maid. He didn't think that ordinary maids would have the leisure time to come here to read books. He couldn't help but start a conversation:

"I wonder which master's house this lady serves in?"

Chang Qi raised her eyes slightly, her white eyelids lifted, and also looked at the bookstall owner for a few times, then replied indifferently:

"Duke Kang's Mansion."

The book stall owner was a little surprised at this time, and said enthusiastically: "The Kangguo Mansion is indeed good, and the Kangguo Duke is also a very good person."

"That's natural."

The book stall owner also saw that the other party didn't want to talk much, so he smiled and said, "Then you read it first, I won't bother you any more."

Halfway through the book, Chang Qi took out a copper coin from her pocket again, intending to extend the time. When she raised her neck to relax, she suddenly saw a sneaky head. She frowned slightly and squinted her eyes.

But the head quickly retracted, obviously observing something. She slapped the copper coin on the bookshelf and said, "Leave the book here, I'll be back soon."

Then, before the bookstall owner could react, Chang Qi disappeared.

After a while, the female customer was seen frowning and sitting back in front of the bookstall. The bookstore owner took out the book that Chang Qi had just read and put it in front of her.

Chang Qi took the book and wanted to read it for a while, but she felt that she couldn't read it anymore. She closed the book and asked, "Boss, how long have you been setting up a stall here?"

The bookstore owner was stunned and said, "It's been a long time, at least eight years if not ten. I'm familiar with the people and shops here, even the adults can recognize one or two."

"I'm asking you a question." As he said that, Chang Qi took out a dozen copper coins from his pocket and put them on the table.

The shopkeeper immediately laughed even more happily. He was a businessman, selling books and words were the same, so he was not embarrassed: "Ask."

......

When Chang An came out of the Imperial City, Chang Qi was already waiting by the carriage outside the gate, holding the book she had just been reading. Chang An looked at her book and asked, "How much did you buy this book for?"

"My lord, two hundred and thirty coins."

Chang An felt around his body and finally pulled out a piece of silver, then put it in her hand. Then he pretended nothing had happened and said:

"This is my private money. I'll reimburse you. Don't tell Madam Gu."

Chang Qi had long been accustomed to the silver in Chang An's pockets, and would occasionally give half a tael of silver to Chang An and his wife. Not only herself, but also the servants below. She just put the silver into her pocket and said, "Something's going on."

"Tell me in the car."

Chang An yawned, then turned around and got on the carriage, followed closely by Chang Qi.

The carriage was halfway back when it suddenly stopped. The driver's voice came from outside: "Sir, there is an old woman who has fallen outside and is blocking the road."

Chang An and Chang Qi looked at each other, and then they came out together. After coming down, they saw an old woman lying on the ground. The old woman was still holding a basket, but the vegetables in it were scattered on the side.

The driver got off the carriage and bent down with Chang An. He squinted his eyes and looked at her for a few breaths. Then he stretched out his finger and asked, "Madam, are you okay?"

"Um... who are you?" the old woman asked, reluctantly opening her eyes.

"My name is Chang'an, and my courtesy name is Yonghe." Chang'an replied, "I wonder how you are now, my lady? Were you hit by my driver?"

At this moment, Chang Qi suddenly moved, stood opposite Chang An, and said calmly: "Young Master, don't get caught in the sun."

Chang An didn't say anything, just listened to the old woman's answer: "No, I was halfway through the journey and fainted due to exhaustion."

"Okay, then, shall we take you to the clinic?" Chang An asked the servant to help the old woman up and then help her to the car.

When the old woman found out that Chang An was trying to help her get into the car, she waved her hands and said, "I just fell to the ground and my body is dirty. I dare not dirty your car."

Chang An's main point was to follow the will of the people, so he nodded and stopped forcing it, and got into the carriage with Chang Qi. Sitting in the carriage, there was a curtain between him and the old woman outside, so they obviously couldn't see each other's situation.

At this time, Chang An and Chang Qi were biting each other's ears, and the latter asked, "Sir, do you have any ideas?"

"Of course there are, but for now, keep your eyes outside. After the matter is over, we will take action." Chang An nodded slightly, "Just cooperate with me in the future."

Chang Qi nodded and asked, "Do you want to die or live?"

"Is there any difference?" Chang An was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Hmm..." Chang Qi thought about it seriously, and then said, "Yes, if you want to die, let A Mei do it, but if you want to live, only I can do it."

Chang An's eyebrows twitched, and he said, "I want it alive. I'll use it if it's alive."

"understood."

.......

Gu Li was sitting in the room at this time, playing with toys on the couch with Xiaoguai and Erguai. At this time, Zhener ran in hurriedly. The two little ones didn't realize what was happening at all, so they raised their hands and waved, shouting softly:

"Aunt Zhen'er!"

"Sister Sanniang, something's wrong!" Zhen'er nodded slightly to the young master and young lady, and then said nervously:

"The young master has been taken to the government office! The people in the government office are calling us over now."

Gu Li's pupils shrank, and she quickly looked at the two little ones beside her. Fortunately, they didn't pay attention to what Zhen'er said. She regained her composure and said to Xiaoguai and Erguai:

"Little cutie, second cutie, grandpa is missing and grandma wants to go look for him. Can you guys wait for grandma at home?"

After hearing this, the two kids quickly got up and said, "I'll go too!"

"I am coming too!"

Gu Li shook his head and said, "No, mother is going to look for father-in-law. It's very important. Please wait for mother at home."

"Ah."

"Zhen'er, you and Huaiqin take care of Xiaoguai and Erguai. I'll take Qi Amei out."

After Gu Li gave all the instructions, he went out directly. Chang Qi also came out from the corner and followed Gu Li, supporting her.

When they arrived at the gate, Chang'an's carriage was parked at the gate, but it was surrounded by soldiers from the government office. At this time, the head of the police bowed and said, "Greetings, Madam."

"I wonder, my dear gentlemen, what crime has my beloved committed that has brought him to the government office?" Gu Li asked anxiously at this time.

"Insulting a good lady." The officer replied. Since they were family members, he had to save face: "An old lady sued the Duke of Kangguo for insulting her daughter."

"Impossible!" Gu Li blurted out at this moment, and his pair of eyebrows suddenly changed from wrinkled to upright, and his whole aura underwent a qualitative change.

"I'm getting in the carriage now. I want to see who dares to slander my husband and insult a decent woman!" She got in the carriage and threw a piece of silver to the doorman, saying, "Get in and drive."

"Okay... okay ma'am."

The doorman felt a little weak in the knees at this time. After Chang Qi got in the car, the doorman drove directly to the yamen.

On the way to the county government office, the constables beside him began to discuss quietly: "Didn't we hear that Duke Kangguo only favors his wife? Even those who wanted to take concubines were driven out by him."

"I don't know. Don't discuss things that shouldn't be discussed. The lady is in the car now."

Not long after, the carriage stopped and the doorman said, "Madam, we have arrived at the government office."

Gu Li got off the carriage and walked into the government office with the help of Chang Qi. In the court, Chang An had already sat down, and the one kneeling on the ground was their driver.

When Chang An saw Gu Li coming, he smiled and said, "Mother Gu, come and sit down."

"What's going on?" Gu Li sat down and asked in a low voice. But her raised eyebrows told Chang An how angry she was.

"Just wait and listen to what the county magistrate says."

Then, the gavel slammed, and the county magistrate said to the three people kneeling on the ground: "Since the county lady is here, why don't you three repeat what you just said."
