A strong farm girl is busy getting rich
Chapter 84: Mr. Gu's Hopes Failed
Elder Meng snorted coldly and said, “It seems that Lord Yao has finally figured out who is the villain and who is the victim!
Now that the matter is clear, I will take the girl away. It is freezing cold, and the little girl has been kneeling here for so long. I have to go back and check if her legs are okay!"
"Yes, yes, what Lord Meng said is right! I will arrange a carriage right away to take Lord Meng and Miss Shen back home."
Shen Qingqian didn't hesitate and agreed immediately.
When Shen Qingfeng and Mr. Meng came, they took the carriage of the Meng Mansion, which was waiting outside, so Mr. Meng refused County Magistrate Yao and said that he would take his own carriage back.
After leaving the gate of the county government office, Shen Qingqian asked, "Mr. Meng, why are you here? Where is my teacher?"
Elder Meng said, "It was your second brother who came to my house."
Shen Qingfeng said: "It's like this, Master Zhou went out today and is not at home.
I was worried about you, so I had to ask the servant of Zhou Mansion to take me to Mr. Meng's house and ask Mr. Meng for help. "
Shen Qingqian didn't expect that she and Mr. Meng had only met twice, but Mr. Meng gave her face and personally came forward to help her!
"Qing Qian will remember Mr. Meng's kindness in her heart!"
Shen Qingqian bowed to Mr. Meng and spoke sincerely.
Meng Lao said, "Girl, you don't have to be polite. First, I, an old man, don't like County Magistrate Yao's behavior. Second, you are Master Zhou's student. He likes you very much. You also suit my taste, so I should help you."
It was cold outside, so the few of them exchanged a few words, said goodbye to each other, and got on their respective carriages.
In the hot pot restaurant, Shen Qinglan and Shen Qingping had been looking forward to it!
The two of them went out to check every once in a while. If they didn't need to watch the shop, they would have run to the government office to inquire about the situation!
When Shen Qingqian and Shen Qingfeng returned, it was already noon.
Shen Qinglan was entertaining guests, Shen Qingping was doing the accounting. Ah Fu and Shen Xiuxiu were busy in the kitchen. Wang Keer and Yingzi were watching over at the inn.
"The girl is back!"
The first person to see Shen Qingqian was Yingzi. She couldn't sit still in the inn and came out to check every once in a while.
When she came out for the Nth time, she happened to see Shen Qingqian getting off the carriage, and she started shouting and rushed forward to hug Shen Qingqian!
Shen Qingqian pushed her away with disdain and said, "You are already such a grown-up girl, but you are still so reckless. How can you get married in the future?
"Girl! Who said I was getting married? I was worried about you, but you made fun of me as soon as I came back!"
Yingzi blushed and said angrily.
"Okay, that's enough teasing. Let's go in first. It's cold outside."
When the others heard Yingzi's cry, they came out one after another. When they saw Shen Qingqian, they asked all kinds of questions and showed no interest in her.
Shen Qingqian kept saying that it was okay and was surrounded by everyone and entered the hot pot restaurant.
The hot pot restaurant was busy at that time, so Shen Qingqian asked everyone to go about their business first. She went back to the backyard and changed her clothes.
While they were eating, Daqiang and his friends came back from the village. Seeing that Shen Qingqian had returned safely, the four of them were very happy.
Daqiang said, "Miss, you are okay, that's great! The greenhouse has been built according to the blueprint. If you have time, you can go and have a look."
"Okay, I'll go out and buy some vegetable seeds this afternoon. We'll go back to the village together tomorrow and I'll teach you how to plant the vegetables." Shen Qingqian said.
On the other side, as soon as Shen Qingqian and others left the county government office, County Magistrate Yao quickly sent someone to call Mr. Gu over.
Mr. Gu was waiting for news at home. When he saw someone from the government coming to invite him over, he thought the matter was settled.
When going to the yamen, he also asked Mrs. Gu to go along.
When the couple arrived at the county government office, County Magistrate Yao had already returned to the inner courtyard and was talking to Madam Yao. You should know that County Magistrate Yao was able to be transferred to the capital to serve as an official this time, all thanks to Madam Yao's family.
So, he informed his wife about this matter as soon as possible.
"How's it going? Did you get the hot pot restaurant?"
As soon as Mr. Gu came in, he couldn't wait to ask.
"Ugh!"
County Magistrate Yao sighed and told the two men what had happened that day.
He added: "Brother-in-law, you didn't even know the real background of the other party, and you asked me to help you, but you almost hurt me!"
"what?"
Mr. Gu was confused. "This, this is impossible. I sent someone to investigate. The sisters in the hot pot restaurant are just ordinary people from Shenjia Village!"
County Magistrate Yao said, "How is that impossible? Lord Meng came to pick someone up in person, how could I lie to you?"
Mr. Gu naturally knew that his brother-in-law would never say such things. This time, he made a mistake!
He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but he didn't show it on his face. He said to County Magistrate Yao, "In this case, we have to give up on this matter."
He then said to Madam Gu, "Let Gu Nan go over there and appease that family. His uncle will be going to Beijing to report on his work next year, and it will not be good to offend the officials in Beijing."
After the matter was settled, Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu did not stay long and said goodbye and left.
As soon as the two left, Yao Ning came over.
"Dad, Mom, I heard that my aunt and uncle are here. Is cousin Gu Nan here?"
Madam Yao was a little unhappy and said, "Ning'er, your cousin didn't come! Your aunt and uncle have already left. Tell me, what's so good about Gu Nan? Why did you choose him so carefully?"
Next year, when your father goes to the capital to take up a post, there will be plenty of opportunities for him to meet some outstanding men. You can choose any of them at that time! After all, the Gu family is a family of merchants. I don’t think they are a good match for you!"
"Mom, how many times have you said this? But my daughter just likes cousin Gu Nan!"
Yao Ning tugged at Madam Yao's sleeve and acted coquettishly.
Mrs. Yao was helpless and sighed, hoping to move to the capital as soon as possible so that her daughter could put her mind at ease.
Liu Yuyao came to the town early in the morning and went to Gu Mansion to find Gu Ru first.
Gu Ru was not a very principled person. She had already felt a little guilty for rejecting Liu Yuyao yesterday. When she heard that Liu Yuyao was looking for her again today, she immediately invited her in.
Liu Yuyao explained her purpose, and Gu Ru opened her eyes wide and asked, "Yuyao, did you really meet the person that Brother Peiwen was looking for?"
Liu Yuyao nodded and said, "Yes, it should be her, the daughter of Wang Liu. I want you to take me to the Qiao family and tell Mr. Qiao about this, so that he won't be looking for someone else everywhere."
As for Qiao Peiwen's matter, Gu Ru naturally felt obliged to do so and agreed immediately.
The two arrived at Qiao's house, and the gatekeeper said that Qiao Peiwen was not there, so the two went to look for Qiao Peiqing.
After explaining her purpose, Qiao Peiqing said, "But my eldest brother is not at home. My father took him to the capital to see a doctor. It will take several days for him to come back!"
"what!"
Liu Yuyao was a little disappointed. How could it be such a coincidence!
Qiao Peiqing said: "How about we take some people over there and capture the person first?"
Liu Yuyao was somewhat reluctant. She wanted to use this opportunity to get close to Qiao Peiwen! If Qiao Peiqing caught the man, what would she have to do?
