Before leaving the Jiaku Department, Qin Xiao replaced his official uniform with civilian clothes.

Qin Xiao only felt that civilian clothes were much more comfortable to wear than official uniforms. He thought about asking Qiuniang to help him buy a house. He didn't know how things went. He happened to go there to have a meal and bought a few sets of clothes on the way.

I went to the pastry shop to buy pastries, and then rode to Kushui Lane.

The courtyard door of the Gu family was closed. Qin Xiao knocked on the door, but no one answered. At this time in the past, both Qiuniang and Qin Xiao had gone home. Through the crack in the door, they found that the door inside was also closed. When they were curious, they heard

The sound of the door opening behind me was heard, and Qiuniang's voice said: "This way, this way."

Qin Xiao turned around and saw Qiuniang standing behind the door waving to him. She was a little surprised. She led the horse over and Qiuniang opened the courtyard door. This was the courtyard of the fat woman before. She immediately understood and said with a smile: "Qiu Niang."

Sister, did she agree?"

"I found her early in the morning. She asked for fifteen taels of silver. I paid back one tael of silver, but the talkative woman was so happy that she found someone to clean up the house in the morning. There were not many things in the house.

, and moved away after lunch." Qiuniang said quickly: "She is looking for a place to stay temporarily. Fourteen taels of silver can easily buy a larger yard in Wuyifang. In the afternoon, I spent two coins to find it.

I asked a few neighbors to help clean up the house. I know you don’t like those old things, so I cleaned out some unused things."

Qin Xiao walked into the room and saw that it was very empty. There was a small table, two chairs, and a few pony stools in the main hall. The room on the left was empty, and there was a wooden bed on the right, but there was a wooden bed on it.

Brand new cotton batting for the bed.

This house is larger than the Gu family, but the style is similar. The inside and outside of the house are clean.

Qin Xiao thought that Qiuniang had handled this matter neatly and neatly.

"I don't know what you want, but you always need a quilt when you sleep at night." Qiuniang followed Qin Xiao and explained, "So I took it upon myself to buy a quilt for you, and I will lay it down for you later."

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "I knew that Qiu Niang would definitely handle this matter properly."

Qiuniang smiled sweetly. Qin Xiao gave her a cruise ship. It was a loan in name, but Qiuniang knew that it was actually a gift. She was always thinking about doing something for Qin Xiao. This time Qin Xiao asked her to help buy a house. She naturally

He is trying his best. As the saying goes, money can make the world go round. With a hundred taels of silver in hand, this matter will naturally be done smoothly.

"This is the remaining silver." Qiuniang handed the money bag to Qin Xiao and said carefully: "I cashed your one hundred taels of silver notes into cash. I spent fourteen taels on buying a house. Please ask someone to help pack the flowers."

It’s...!”

Before he finished speaking, Qin Xiao had already returned the money bag and said: "There is no need to settle accounts for the time being. There are still many things that I need your help with. Sister Qiu Niang, you and Wu Yifang, look at what is missing in the house and help."

I bought back wardrobes, desks, and pots and pans to make this house really feel like a home. Also, if you help me with errands and delay the departure of the ship, the wages will be deducted from this."

"No wages." Qiuniang smiled, with small dimples on her cheeks, she was pretty and charming: "But you are right, you are a man, you really don't understand what you need at home." Eyeballs

She turned around and said with a smile: "Okay, sister will help you think about these things, but if the things are expensive then, don't blame me."

"You know I'm not that kind of person." Qin Xiao chuckled, and Qiu Niang also smiled and said, "I'm joking with you. You just got off duty, so rest first while I help you lay out the bedding."

Qiuniang walked over, laid out the mattress first, knelt on the bed, and smoothed the sheets. Qin Xiao stood behind and watched, feeling that this scene was really warm and unusual. As long as she could remember, no one had ever helped her make her bed.

mattress.

When he lived with the old man, he did everything in life himself, and Old Man Zhong did not help. When he was in Turtle City, he lived alone.

Seeing Qiuniang's nimble appearance, Qin Xiao's heart felt warm.

But he was quickly frightened and turned away.

It turned out that when Qiuniang knelt on the bed and smoothed the sheets, the skirt covering her beautiful round buttocks immediately tightened, forming a full and round outline. Qin Xiao stood behind and could naturally see it clearly, and his heart beat rapidly.

Don't dare to look more.

When Qiuniang laid down the sheets and turned around, she saw Qin Xiao already standing at the window looking outside. Naturally, she didn't know that Qin Xiao had seen her beautiful scene just now and came over and asked: "Can you cook by yourself?"

Their iron pots can still be used, but you need to buy some oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, which are sold nearby."

"You have to learn how to do it even if you can't." Qin Xiao sighed: "I can't go to your place every day to make a living."

Qiuniang smiled sweetly and joked: "You are a rich man, you can buy a maid to wash and cook for you."

"I am a young official, how can I dare to buy a girl?" Qin Xiao said with a smile: "I can only wait for a girl to fall in love with me in the future. If she is willing to marry in, I can ask her to help me wash and cook.

"

Qiuniang blinked her eyes and said: "I also know some families of girls in Wuyifang who have not left the government. If you were not an official, my sister could really act as a matchmaker for you, but now you are a seventh-rank official and a girl of ordinary people.

Of course I'm not worthy of you."

"That doesn't matter." Qin Xiao looked at Qiuniang's charming face and couldn't help but said: "Sister Qiuniang, do you really want to help me be a matchmaker?"

Qiuniang suddenly became interested and said: "Then what kind of girl do you like? I will help you search for her. Kyoto is such a big city, you can always find the right girl."

"This...!" Qin Xiao hesitated and said cautiously: "I can say it, but if I say it, don't scold me."

"Why are you scolding you?" Qiuniang asked puzzledly: "Actually, at your age, you can really get married. How many times have I told Bai Yi, our family, to get him married as soon as possible. As long as he is willing, I will help him find it.

A suitable girl, but nothing else matters. When he mentioned this, he said that he couldn't even support himself, so how could he marry a wife? Anyway, I didn't care about him. In a few years, I think there will be more

Which girl is willing to marry him?"

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Sister Qiu Niang, you are really worried. Mr. Gu is the best among people in terms of appearance, character and knowledge. If such a person wants to get married, girls all over the capital city will have to queue up.

Let him choose."

"You are the only one who can talk." Qiuniang smiled broadly. Qin Xiao praised Gu Baiyi. As a sister, she was naturally happy.

"By the way, why hasn't Brother Gu come back today?"

"There must be something unexpected in the yamen." Qiuniang said: "Don't worry, he is such an adult and knows how to take care of himself. Come on, tell me what kind of girl you like. I will remember it for you and I will help you find a suitable one.

explain."

Qin Xiao looked at Qiuniang's beautiful big eyes and finally asked: "Is there any hard-working and virtuous girl like Sister Qiuniang?"

"You don't have to worry about this. There are no girls from ordinary families who are not hard-working." Qiuniang said with a smile: "You just said what kind of appearance you like, whether it is a long face or a round face, petite or slender?"

Qin Xiao took two steps back and looked Qiuniang up and down. Qiuniang was a little confused, looked down and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Just like Sister Qiuniang." Qin Xiao held his chin with his left hand and said, "If I could find someone with a figure like Sister Qiuniang, similar appearance to you, and the same personality as you, that would be perfect."

Qiuniang was stunned, then her cheeks turned red, and she glared at Qin Xiao. She had seen the world after all, and was not like the little girl who was at a loss. She scolded in a low voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? If you continue to talk nonsense like this, I will forgive you."

I can’t help you.”

"I told you not to scold me. If I had known better, I wouldn't have said it." Qin Xiao sighed: "You asked me to say it again. I can't lie to you. I can only say what's in my heart. It turns out that sometimes you can't just say what's in your heart.

Said."

Qiuniang said angrily: "Of course you can't talk nonsense like this. Just rest yourself, I'm going back." When she walked past Qin Xiao, she glared at him again.

Before she even walked out of the door, Qin Xiao had already called out: "By the way, Sister Qiuniang, have you forgotten what I said last time?"

Qiuniang turned around and asked doubtfully: "What's the matter?"

"It's about Sister Hui." Qin Xiao walked over and said, "Didn't you say that Sister Hui's house is haunted? How is she doing now?"

Qiuniang said "Oops" and said: "Yesterday I planned to go over there today, but I was so busy with your business that I forgot about it, wasn't it? It's already late and I can't go today. I'll go over tomorrow and have a look." Blink.

Blinking his eyes, he asked softly: "Qin Xiao, can you really catch ghosts?"

"Sister Qiu Niang, can you change your name?" Qin Xiao said with a bitter face.

"Do you want me to call you Your Majesty?" Qiuniang and Qin Xiao are already very familiar with each other, and they know that Qin Xiao is easy-going and has no official pretensions at all: "Well, I will call you Your Majesty from now on."

Qin Xiao hurriedly said: "If you want to call me like this, you should just call me Qin Xiao. I think I may go to your place often to have dinner in the future. We are also a family, so just call me little brother. You

With Brother Gu as a younger brother, I, as a younger brother, is not too much."

"There are still people who take the initiative to recognize their elder sisters." Qiuniang chuckled: "I can tell you, if you want to have a meal in the future, you can, but you must remember to pay the food fee every month. Our family is very poor, and you, a rich man, can have a meal

, you can’t just eat for free.”

Qin Xiao smiled and said: "Don't worry, I want to have a meal, and I'll pay for the food."

"That's good." Qiuniang smiled, and then sighed: "I'll go see Sister Hui tomorrow and tell her that I can find someone to help her catch ghosts. If she agrees, you can go and have a look."

.If I have nothing else to do, I’ll leave first.”

Qin Xiaodao: "Does the matter of finding a wife still count? Looking for someone like you...1"

"Get out!" Qiuniang cursed in a low voice without saying much, twisted her waist and left. Qin Xiao looked at her beautiful back, swaying, but there was a ripple in his heart, but he knew he was joking with Qiuniang.
