Quick Wear: The bad female supporting role, the male protagonist prefers

"Thank you for your kindness, Miss Gu. I choose the second one."

If she hadn't considered her parents, with her personality she would definitely have chosen the first one, but unfortunately there is no if.

It's not worth it to make her parents sick again just to punish a scumbag.

"it is good."

Gu Shutang smiled at her and quickly agreed, then extended his hand to her: "Would you like to come and learn from me, and help me manage a few shops in the future?"

Ma Xiuman's heart was pounding, but she couldn't believe her own guess. She asked tentatively, "Miss Gu, I didn't sign the slave contract."

Shouldn't a wealthy family like them entrust such important matters as running the shop to the servants who hold the indentures?

"Who said I want someone who has signed a slave contract? I see some cleverness in your words. If I train you well, maybe you can become a female shopkeeper."

There are plenty of servants who have signed indentures to sell themselves.

What she wanted were the good modern ideas that Ma Xiuman had in mind.

Gu Shutang glanced at her slowly, and just as he was about to pull his hand back, Ma Xiuman grabbed it tightly as if it were a life-saving straw.

"I am willing. Thank you for your kindness, Miss Gu. Xiuman will learn from you and serve you wholeheartedly in the future."

Ma Xiuman felt a strong excitement in her heart. A female shopkeeper! In this backward era, she became an unprecedented female shopkeeper.

Ma Xiuman's heart warmed up at the thought, and she looked at Gu Shutang with stars in her eyes.

Wang Xiangshao on the side was feeling jealous. His wife treated him far less warmly than the woman in front of her. She was indifferent every time she looked at him. The love they had now was all thanks to his efforts.

Fortunately, the person in front of him whom Gu Shutang valued was not a man, otherwise Wang Xiangshao would have taught him a lesson sooner or later and would not dare to appear in front of Gu Shutang.

"Madam, it's getting late. The restaurant is ready. Let's get going quickly. This girl's family must be waiting for her for lunch."

Wang Xiangshao couldn't help it after all and wanted to pull Gu Shutang back to his side. He put his hands across his abdomen and pretended to be serious.

"My husband is right. It's getting late. Miss Ma should return home as soon as possible. You can come to the Gu Mansion to find me at any time. As for the man on the ground, Miss Ma will know his fate in a few days."

After saying that, Gu Shutang put her hand on Wang Xiangshao's palm, and Wang Xiangshao took her hand and walked away slowly.

Ma Xiuman stayed at home with her parents for a few days. She was also afraid that Zhang Jialiang had a trick up his sleeve and would instigate his friends to tell nonsense to her parents. Seeing that everything was calm these days, she gradually felt relieved.

Zhang Jialiang had been missing for several days, and there was no commotion in the slum. Although Zhang Jialiang considered himself a scholar, he ultimately did not take the imperial examination and had no achievements, so naturally no one cared.

Even Zhang Jialiang's father, who depended on him for everything, didn't care much about his son. He was so focused on gambling all day that he didn't even realize that his son hadn't returned home.

Just when Ma Xiuman thought everything was over, Zhang Jialiang was thrown back without a single scar on his body, but with an extremely tired face and spirit, and was even afraid to see the light.

As soon as he was thrown to the ground in the slum, he cowered and covered his eyes with his hands, crawled to the gap in the compartment where miscellaneous items were placed, and stood close to the firewood inside, even pressing his head tightly against the firewood.

It's obvious that he's been tortured.

Ma Xiuman felt a little relieved.
