The Epic Revenge Chapter 219: Ransom money

After Gu Qingzhou got up, he went to a cafe in the city instead of going directly to Yan's house.

She calls from the cafe to the Overseer's House.

The lieutenant answered the phone.

Soon, Sim's voice appeared on the other end of the phone: "Hello, Miss Gu?"

"Young Marshal, you don't need to go to Yan's house, just come over, I'm already there." Gu Qingzhou said. Then, she told Sim the address of the cafe.

On the 19th day of the first month, the weather in Yuecheng is sunny. A sycamore tree in the cafe is sending out crisp and tender new shoots. From a distance, it is a dark brown horned branch. When you get closer, you can see the gauze-like green leaves. .

There were no people in the coffee shop in the morning. Gu Qingzhou chose a seat by the window, asked for a cup of coffee and a piece of cake, and took out a book to read.

She is studying the Bible and is about to start school. Gu Qingzhou wants to enter the state of study, so that she will not get a diploma if her grades are not good when she graduates.

The environment of the cafe is very good, the leather seats are soft, full of the aroma of coffee and cakes; in the glass vase on the table, there is a daffodil flower, the petals are crystal clear like snow, the golden sun shines through the glass window According to it, there is a little bit of golden light in the bottle.

Si Mu first saw Gu Qingzhou after he stopped the car.

Gu Qingzhou's profile is very beautiful, her thick green hair is lightly shiny, gentle and elegant, her skin is like cream, her wrists are frosty and snowy, and the moment she gently twists her eyebrows, she also has the look of layers of brocade.

She is a very beautiful little girl. She seems to be more mature and more charming and beautiful than last year.

Simus knocked on the glass window.

Gu Qingzhou raised his head and saw clearly that he was standing outside the window. He nodded slightly, and his expression was just right.

"Wait for a long time?" Simu came in, sat across from her, and asked.

"No, I just sat for a while." Gu Qingzhou closed the book and put it in the bag.

The coffee in front of her was cold, so she ordered another one.

Simu also wants a cup of coffee.

Gu Qingzhou was eating the cake. When a piece of cake was about to bottom out, Sim finally spoke.

"Qingzhou, I'm very grateful to you for treating me." Si Mu said.

Gu Qingzhou raised her eyes.

The sunlight shining in from the window, golden and warm, all melted into her eyes, giving her eyes the power to reflect people's hearts.

She said, "You don't need to thank me, you gave me the money! Do you treat the doctor as a benefactor when you go to the hospital? I sold you the craft, and you paid for it!"

Si Mu was taken aback.

Having said that, he felt a lot better, and the rest of his words were smoother.

"Before you treated me, I said that I have a beloved girl. Her name is Wei Qingjia." Simu gently turned the coffee cup and rubbed the bone china on the coffee cup with his fingertips. Rose, her voice was steady.

"Yeah." Gu Qingzhou responded, picked up the coffee and drank slowly, "I know what you said at the time. I said that I don't mind this matter, so I treated you."

After taking a sip, she put down the added sugar, causing ripples in the coffee cup.

Si Mu felt that Gu Qingzhou was very reasonable.

"...Qingzhou, I didn't see you when I was a kid. I only learned about this marriage recently. Qingzhou, times have changed. Some people revolutionized the old dynasty to overthrow the old dynasty, so that the younger generations can live on. A new day." Simu said again, "How many people swallowed the blind and dumb marriages in the past, should we do the same?"

Si Mu can't believe a marriage without love.

Si Mu couldn't believe the previous family marriage. He is a student of the new era. He doesn't think about marrying a concubine, so he has very high requirements on his wife. His love is only for her.

Gu Qingzhou could not meet this requirement.

Gu Qingzhou shook her head happily: "It's better not to do this, I don't agree with blind marriages either."

Si Mu knew that Gu Qingzhou was good at talking, but he didn't expect her to be so good. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and he was completely relaxed.

"Qingzhou, I want to quit this marriage. You are very good, but love between men and women often requires fate. I regard you as a good friend, but I have no love for you, and I am also very Sorry." Sim said.

"I have nothing to you either." Gu Qingzhou said, blinking her big eyes.

Simus smiled.

Gu Qingzhou's words completely relieved Simu.

"Do you agree?" He asked Gu Qingzhou, "Do you agree with the withdrawal of relatives?"

"Agree." Gu Qingzhou said.

"Okay, let's go talk to my parents together." Simu said.

Gu Qingzhou shook her head: "Young Marshal, I have no love for you, and I don't want to marry you, but whoever proposes to withdraw from the family will be held responsible."

Si Mu was taken aback.

"...You can mention it, I have no objection here." Gu Qingzhou said, "But I won't be with you. If the elder asks, I will even say that I don't want to. In this way, they will do me a favor."

Si Mu's eyes flickered with cold light.

He went from happy to disappointed in just a short moment. In an instant, the good impression on Gu Qingzhou vanished.

So, she's such a philistine!

Can't say she's a philistine either. If she is really greedy for small profits, she will not be willing to quit her relatives, after all, being the daughter-in-law of the Si family has more benefits.

Si Mu thought about it for a while and finally came to the conclusion: She is very selfish and indifferent, and will not pay for someone who doesn't matter.

Even if she paid, she had to ask for something in return.

It's not good for her to quit, and she doesn't care, so she won't mention it.

Si Mu would be under too much pressure to mention it alone, and his father would probably disagree.

At this time, Sim needs to offer a condition, one that can make Gu Qingzhou's heart move and is worth her effort.

"Can you help me?" After Simu wanted to understand, his voice was warm, "I can pay."

Gu Qingzhou's eyes lit up.

No one doesn't like money, especially Gu Qingzhou!

"How much did you bid?" Gu Qingzhou asked. Her slender eyelashes were raised slightly, and there were greedy and calm broken awns in her eyes, which were full of flutter, making her look particularly vulgar.

Women are really strange species. Once they stand on earth, they lose their fairy spirit.

Only Wei Qingjia is the only woman that Simu has contacted with.

"Ten small yellow croakers." Sima said.

Gu Qingzhou smiled. Under the sun, her smile was as beautiful as a peach blossom: "Young Commander, where are you sending the beggars?"

"......I only have so much money for the time being!" said Si Mu.

"Then go back and think of a way. I want five large yellow croakers." Gu Qingzhou said.

Five large yellow croakers are 50 small yellow croakers, enough for an ordinary person to live a life without food and clothing.

Si Mu doesn't have so much money on him.

Like Si Xingpei said, Si Xingpei has his own military exploits and territory, and Si Mu has nothing. He is just a young marshal who is attached to the family and is a government official.

"I will think of a way!" said Simu, "You will go to the Overseer's Mansion with me when you get the money, right?"

"Of course!" Gu Qingzhou said.

Si Mu hates Gu Qingzhou's style, but he can understand that, after all, everyone has to eat whole grains, and money is essential.

Not every woman has the fate of Wei Qingjia.

Wei Qingjia seems to be a woman who does not touch the dust, she is beautiful and immortal.

After finishing speaking, Gu Qingzhou said to Simu, "Why don't you go back first? I also want to sit for a while and read the book for a while."

Si Mu nodded, and when he got up and left, he paid the bill first, and gave him an extra sum to prevent Gu Qingzhou from ordering food later.

The matter is almost clear, Simu returned to the Overseer's Mansion. Along the way, he was thinking: Am I taking money to redeem myself? Thinking of this, Simu felt a chill.

When passing by the gate, I met his brother Si Xingpei going out.

Si Xingpei was driving a car and deliberately stopped the car when passing by him. No one got off. He just stuck his head out of the window and asked him, "What did you do?"

"A little private matter." Sim said.

Si Xingpei is half-smiling, his eyes are sharp and swirls around Si Mu, making Si Mu horrified.

The brothers never got along.

Si Mu also tried to get close to Si Xingpei when he was a child. After suffering a few losses, Si Mu never did stupid things again.

"The military governor just asked you." Si Xingpei said lazily and drove out.

He looked at Sim in the rearview mirror, his eyes were cold.

Si Mu didn't think much, turned around and entered the backyard.

As soon as he stepped into the arch, he met his mother.

"Mom." Sime said.

Mrs. Si asked him, "I went to see Qingzhou early in the morning, what's the matter?"

Gu Qingzhou called the governor's mansion, and Mrs. Si knew it.

Mrs. Si is not shy about meeting Gu Qingzhou and Si Mu, and even wished they had more contact, which completely broke Si Mu's thoughts about Wei Qingjia.

"It's nothing, just say a few words." Simu lifted his foot and walked in.

In the afternoon, Simu went out.

Mrs. Si called the adjutant who followed Si Mu and asked why Si Mu went.

"....The young marshal went to the Qing Gang to ask Jiuye to borrow money. He said that he would borrow five large yellow croakers for 30% of the profit." The adjutant said.

Mrs. Si was slightly surprised.

Five large yellow croakers are nothing to the Overseer's Mansion, but they are a lot of money to ordinary people. What does Simu need so much money for?

"He went to see Miss Gu in the morning, what did he say?" Mrs. Si asked again.

The adjutant said: "I don't know, it seems that the money is for Miss Gu."

Mrs. Si immediately guessed that Si Mu wanted to retire, and Gu Qingzhou took the opportunity to blackmail.

This **** Gu Qingzhou, she knows that the two-year appointment is coming, and she needs to retire after all. Before leaving the family, she needs to get a bad sum of money.

But this money, Simu gave it willingly.

"You can't let them mess around!" Mrs. Si asked the adjutant to go out. She sat quietly for a long time, with a sharp and penetrating light in her eyes.

As a mother, Mrs. Si's idea is simple: a divorced woman can't be a daughter-in-law, and a woman her son loves deeply can't be a daughter-in-law.

Unfortunately, Wei Qingjia has both.

Once Si Mu and Wei Qingjia get married, he likes her so much that he has a daughter-in-law and forgets his mother. Where is the status of Madam Si?

Of course, Mrs. Si would not agree that Gu Qingzhou really married Si Mu.

The Si family doesn't want to touch the dirty things of the Gu family.

Just this moment, she needs Gu Qingzhou to stand firm as Simu's fiancée, so that Wei Qingjia has nowhere to intervene.

"Gu Qingzhou, it seems that you will be cheaper!" Mrs. Si thought about it again and again, and had an idea in her heart, one that his son would not suffer, and he would not dare to retire from his relatives.
