She lay on the table and called out twice, rubbing her sore shoulders. Just as she was about to sleep, a little girl came in. "Miss, Young Master asked me to come over and take care of you for the time being. If you need anything, you can tell me.”
Gu Ci leaned against her head and smiled at the little girl. "What's your name?"
"My name is Wan Cui." The little girl was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and her watery eyes were rolling around.
"My name is Gu Ci. Just call me Gu Ci in the future. There's no need to be so formal.”Gu Ci said as she stretched. "If you don't mind, can you get me some water? I want to take a bath.”
Wan Cui agreed and went out. In the blink of an eye, her figure disappeared from the courtyard. Gu Ci looked at the interior of the room. It was very simple but elegant. There was a green gauze curtain and a screen in front of the inner room. When she was walking out, she pushed open the window and saw a lake of lotus leaves. There were even some lotus flowers standing in the thick green. She looked even more charming under the sunlight. She placed her porcelain hands on the window, and the wind blew against her face, blowing away the hot air. It felt comfortable when it blew on her face.
"I didn't expect the Chen family's residence to be so good.”
After she washed up, Wan Cui brought in new clothes. The young ladies in the Republic of China wore similar dresses with a few lotus flowers embroidered on them. The large flowers were embroidered in a unique way. Wan Cui said while she was putting on her clothes behind the screen. "Young Lady, Old Master is holding a banquet tonight and said that he wants to see Young Lady.”
Gu Ci pursed her lips behind the screen. There are many things to do. "Got it. Remember to inform me when the time comes.”
Wan Cui told Gu Ci some things about the Chen family." Master has seven wives. First Madam passed away three years ago. Second Madam passed away early. The first six wives of the seventh wife passed away early. Only First Madam kept Eldest Young Master, and Second Madam kept Second Young Master. Fourth Madam had left Eldest Miss behind. Now that Eldest Miss was married, the Chen family's bloodline was weak. That was why Old Master had married Seventh Aunt.”
Wan Cui helped Gu Ci dry her hair and combed it into a simple girl's bun. Gu Ci was originally handsome, so she couldn't bear to dress up like this. "Young lady, you look really good."
Gu Ci held her hand and smiled. "Let's go over."
Old Master Chen was holding a banquet in the waterside pavilion. When Gu Ci arrived, Chen He was already standing inside. Beside him, an older person was instructing the maids to pack up. There were a few pots of flowers and plants inside. The surroundings were clear and comfortable. When Wan Cui followed her in, a bright and cheerful voice came from behind." Brother, I heard that a spirit exorcist master came to our house today. She's a woman."”
Chen He was still standing upright with his hands behind his back, watching the servants come in and out to serve the dishes. Gu Ci turned her head and saw the person who had just spoken. The man was still laughing loudly as he strode over to Gu Ci. He sized her up. "I didn't expect it to be a woman. She's quite beautiful.”
Gu Ci raised her head and looked at him, but Chen He walked over and said. "My brother, Chen Chuan."
Gu Ci nodded as a greeting." Gu Ci.”
When Old Master Chen arrived, the first thing he heard was a sweet and delicate woman's voice. She was wearing colorful clothes and helped Old Master Chen in. When she walked to the door, she paid special attention to Gu Ci for a while. After helping Old Master Chen sit down, she walked over with her hips swaying. he said. "I didn't expect such a beauty to exist in this world.”As he spoke, he walked back and sat beside Old Master Chen. "Master, look. This new spirit exorcist is worthy of being our Eldest Young Master's wife.”
"You." Old Master Chen doted on this Seventh Aunt very much, and his eyes were filled with smiles. He said to everyone. "Today is a simple family banquet. Miss, you can sit anywhere you want.”
The few of them sat down one after another. Although Old Master Chen was already over fifty years old, he was still young and energetic, and his tone was calm. "Miss, the safety of the Chen family will depend on you this time.”
Gu Ci said hurriedly. "You can call me Gu Ci."
Chen Chuan sat beside Gu Ci and said. "Miss Gu Ci, don't be modest. The things in this house are amazing. Previously, it had caused everyone to panic. If you help our Chen family solve this problem, the Chen family will not treat you unfairly.”
After Chen Chuan finished speaking, Gu Ci turned around and saw him smiling in confusion. It was somewhat mysterious.
Gu Ci felt that although this person spoke in a friendly manner, she faintly felt that this person was too meticulous. There was a hidden meaning in his words. It was like a drug that made people want to avoid this person.
Gu Ci replied in such a tone after so many years of experience. "Gu Ci will do her job well. Second Young Master, please rest assured that I will solve the problems in this house. I, Gu Ci, have my own principles in doing things.”
The entire dining table was very quiet. Other than the occasional coquettish voice of Aunt Qi, there was nothing else. As a guest, Gu Ci could not leave first. After Old Master Chen and Aunt Qi left, she asked Wan Cui to bring her back to the room. After Wan Cui fetched water for her to wash up, a servant girl came in with something and placed it on the table. She said to Gu Ci respectfully. "Young lady, the eldest young master said that you didn't eat much at night, so he asked the kitchen to make some desserts.”
