Liang Yan thought about it for a long time, and then replied: "Little is willing to follow the young master to take care of the house."

Gu Yunjiao said, "The Duke's Mansion definitely has a brighter future than the Gu family, why are you willing to follow?"

Liang Yan replied: "I was in the government's mansion, and I did some odd jobs in the past, and no one looked down on me. After I followed the young master, I was taken seriously."

"I've heard a saying, I'd rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow. I'm afraid I'll never have a chance to make a name for myself in the government's mansion. I can only do insignificant things all my life. But the young master is only me. Servant, I'd rather follow the young master, as I get older in the future, if I can be a steward for the young master, I will be able to make it through."

Gu Yunjiao listened to what he said so well, and seemed to have thought it over carefully.

She asked Mrs. Wu for a sales contract with Liang Yan, and asked him to go to school with Gu Chuan every day.

Gu Yunjiao herself didn't dare to move in. Although Yan Beichen had lost a lot of manpower, he didn't dare to start in the capital during the day, but it was still easy to send a few people to capture her in the middle of the night.

Even if she has two female bodyguards, Lei Ying and Leixia, it is not safe.

A few days later, there was a rumor circulating in the capital that an official who had resigned and returned home was ordered to be robbed and killed on the official road.

The husband and wife and a maid are dead, the child is missing, and all the property has been taken away.

Gu Yunjiao deliberately asked someone to inquire, and heard that this case was taken over by someone from the Ministry of Justice, because the criminals only stole money, and the luggage of several people did not move, so the Ministry of Justice immediately knew the identities of these people.

The Ministry of Punishment sent an official document asking Chen Song's family to come to Beijing to recognize the body.

Chen Song's hometown is near Xiangcheng, and by the time the letter is delivered, it will be almost 20 days later.

Chen Song's family got the news, like a bolt from the blue, Chen Song's two younger brothers hurriedly packed up and went to Beijing.

By the time they arrived in the capital, almost forty days had passed since the Ministry of Justice found the body.

The days have entered May, the weather is gradually getting hot, and several corpses have already begun to rot.

Especially Chen Song, who was slashed twice in the face, and could not recognize his appearance for a long time.

Chen Song's two younger brothers didn't dare to look at them. They recognized the corpse indiscriminately, and they set fire to ashes outside the city. There was no way to do this.

Chen Song's colleagues and colleagues in the same year also learned the news long ago, and they sighed for a while. When Chen Song's two younger brothers left, they gathered some silver taels to send over, which was considered a sign of their affection.

Since then, Chen Song has completely disappeared from the world.

Gu Yuheng hid at home for a while, and the beard on his jaw slowly grew out.

In the past, Mrs. Niu did not allow him to grow a beard, saying it was showing his age.

Now, he has a beard and looks several years older, and the age gap with Chen Song is getting bigger and bigger.

It's just that Gu Yunjiao still doesn't allow him to go out, saying that he will have to wait a few months until the beard grows longer.

The weather is hot, and the workshop is the busiest time, not only to make perfume, but also to make toilet water. Gu Yunjiao goes out early every day and returns late.

And in the Guogong's mansion, Mrs. Wu was also busy, because Jiang Han was about to get married.

The date of marriage was already optimistic about last year. Mrs. Wu didn't want to care about it, but she didn't care. If she really wanted to leave this matter to Auntie Su, wouldn't it make people think that Auntie Su was the mistress of the Duke's Mansion.
