After traveling through time, she still led the villagers to make money as a county magistrate

Gu Niannian slept for another half an hour before slowly getting up and washing up.

During this period, Gu Bole's servant came to urge him several times, but he only replied with two words, "Wait."

By the time Gu Niannian arrived at the main hall, it was almost noon.

"Greetings to all the uncles. I am sorry for keeping you waiting. I want to apologize to you all."

Gu Niannian bowed to everyone

No matter how procrastinating she may be, she will still put in enough effort to show her worth.

Seeing his originally angry expression, Gu Bole turned to joy and pretended to be angry and said, "You know you are being rude, but you didn't come earlier, making you uncles wait for so long."

"Oh, that's not right. My nephew Rujun is now the magistrate of Lin'an County and is very busy with official duties. As elders, we can understand, we understand."

Gu Niannian looked up and quietly looked at the person who was speaking. The man was wearing ink-colored clothes and sitting in the middle of the lobby. He was about forty years old and looked very healthy.

Behind him stood a man dressed as a servant, with red lips and white teeth, very handsome, and almost as good-looking as Gu Niannian.

Needless to say, the person sitting in the main seat must be the most prestigious among these people. However, Gu Niannian had never seen such a person before in her original memory, and she didn't know which elder it was.

"Uncle San, please don't speak for him. He made the elders wait for him for so long. He should apologize."

Gu Bole took over

"Gu Bole's third uncle, that's his third grandfather"

“Third Grandpa!!”

Gu Niannian's pupils suddenly dilated

"Could it be that Third Grandpa, who made his fortune by robbing tombs when he was young, then turned over a new leaf and started a business in the capital, where he opened the 'Moon Shadow Tower,' one of the only two brothels in the capital that can be ranked highly?"

You have to know that people who can afford to open brothels in the capital are not just rich. They open such a big shop under the feet of the emperor, and the people coming in and out are mostly officials.

It goes without saying how powerful this third uncle is.

"But he actually condescended to serve a mere county magistrate like me. No matter how you think about it, it's impossible for someone like him to do this.

Could it be that they are not even remotely related to the Gu family? That is even more impossible, otherwise Yuansheng would not have only heard of them but never seen them.

Gu Niannian decided not to think about it for the time being. With the limited memory in her mind, she really couldn't piece together the whole story.

He played the role of a well-behaved and obedient son, Gu Niannian wrote to his third grandfather, "Third grandfather, your grandson is here to apologize to you."

Then Gu Niannian met all the elders present one by one.

Gu Niannian had never experienced this kind of scene in modern times, and as a woman herself, she had never experienced it before.

Now he just sits aside, and when someone mentions her, he answers obediently, and his answers are all polite words to praise each other.

What he didn't notice was that there was a pair of dark and beautiful pupils observing his every move from time to time.

"It's noon now, would you all like to have a quick meal here?"

Gu Bole said he was asking them, but in fact they all knew each other tacitly. They had been waiting here for so long, so there was no reason to let them leave with an empty stomach.

The food here in Lin'an is relatively light, and those who eat together are all around Gu Bole's age.

Gu Niannian maintained a standard smile of a junior throughout the meal. The food was not to his liking anyway, so he simply took a few symbolic bites and didn't move his chopsticks.

Just as he was thinking about going back to the yard and asking the small kitchen to make something delicious, he reached into his bowl with a pair of chopsticks and asked, "Why, your own food is not to your liking?"

“Try this”

A piece of chicken fell into Gu Niannian's bowl

The person who picked up the food for him was his third uncle. Everyone present put down their chopsticks and looked at Gu Niannian.

This is Master Gu San, the one who can make the entire Gu family tremble with just a stomp of his feet. Master Gu San usually doesn't even look at these poor relatives. But now he comes here and waits with them for more than an hour to see this kid, and now he is picking up food for this kid.

They wanted to see what was so special about this kid from the Gu family. After looking at him, it seemed that he was just good-looking and delicate. As for other things... "Because he is the county magistrate?" That shouldn't be the case!

All of Mr. Gu Sanye's descendants were either rich or noble, or had some official positions, some even being officials in the imperial court.

It is really inappropriate to condescend like this for a small Lin'an County Magistrate.

Gu Niannian was already feeling uneasy while eating this meal, and now that he was being stared at by so many people, Mr. Gu Sanye was a big shot, so he had to eat the chicken.

Fortunately, this place is quite civilized. People use public spoons and chopsticks to pick up food when eating. Gu Niannian is not picky about food and has no aversion to chicken. She gave Uncle Gu a sweet smile and said, "Thank you, Uncle San. How did you know your grandson likes to eat chicken?"

After saying that, Gu Niannian put the chicken in the bowl into her mouth. Her mouth was stuffed full, looking a bit funny and cute, without any trace of her arrogance and rudeness at the beginning.

Just a good and sensible child

"Haha...haha...eat more if you like it."

Mr. Gu San continued to put several pieces of chicken into Gu Nian Nian's bowl.

Which elder doesn't like children to listen to him/her and eat well? Even someone as powerful as Mr. Gu San is considered an old man in this era and is at the age of enjoying his grandchildren. How can he not like children, especially such a beautiful, obedient and promising child?

So he picked up these pieces of chicken very sincerely.

It also put an end to Gu Niannian's original plan to set up a new kitchen.

During the dinner, the person who laughed the happiest was Gu Bole, and he couldn't suppress the smile even if he wanted to.

This time he was really disappointed. He had never thought of inviting Mr. Gu San to come over. Not to mention that Mr. Gu had a big business and was very busy, how could he have the time to come to his place for dinner.

Besides, the relationship between Mr. Gu Sanye and his family is already beyond the fifth degree of kinship. At best, they have the same surname, Gu, so they are somewhat related.

Gu Bole hadn't expected him to actually come, and he had waited patiently for over an hour. He couldn't believe that the man who had only lived in legends was actually sitting in his own home, not only eating at his own home, but also picking up food for his "son," and not just once...

He can brag about this for the rest of his life.

As the person involved, Gu Niannian was as usual and did not seem flattered or anything.

He calmly endured the surprised looks of the people around him.

"Rujun, are you engaged?"

Mr. Gu San suddenly asked, and his words made everyone present stop moving.

Gu Niannian also stopped chewing. She wasn't surprised, but was just thinking about how to answer.

Before Gu Niannian could make a move, Gu Bole answered first, "My son has known how to study since he was young. He passed the imperial examination at the age of seventeen. He is nineteen this year and still unmarried."

After saying that, Gu Bole waited for Master Gu San to say the next thing. If it were according to common sense, Master Gu San would definitely say that there was someone in his family, and the two of them were a perfect match, and they were going to get married. But Master Gu San was not a normal person.

He just smiled and said, "It's better to be unmarried, it's better to be unmarried..."

There was no further news

Gu Bole waited blankly for a long time. Mr. Gu San had already started eating by himself. He then sighed and continued to eat his meal.

Gu Bole really wanted to ask what was the best way to find a partner before getting married, but he didn't dare to ask!

Kicked Gu Niannian, wanting her to ask
