Chapter 113: The first night in the capital

Gu Xiaoyou returned to the room and felt happy when she saw the furnishings in the room.

I simply took out my mobile phone from my purse and took pictures of the room.

She called up the photo editing software and put together the photos she had taken before and the current room photos.

"It looks like a couple's room." Gu Xiaoyou murmured.

After saying that, I was startled by my own thoughts, and turned off my phone with a blush and a heartbeat.

He patted his forehead and said angrily: "Don't think so wildly, maybe it was his original room that was changed."

Gu Xiaoyou said this, looking at the furnishings in the room, he still showed a slightly shy smile.

She walked around the room and touched the jade carvings: "This one is the same."

Touched the bookshelf again: "The bookshelf is the same, but there are not many books."

Gu Xiaoyou walked around to the screen again and reached out to touch the pattern embroidered on the screen: "The pattern is really beautiful."

While admiring the furnishings in the room, Zhixia walked in with several servants and several buckets of hot water.

"Miss Gu, I will pour some hot water for you right now. It will be ready soon."

"Okay, thank you." Gu Xiaoyou moved to the side and watched Zhixia direct her subordinates to pour the hot water.

The servants moved in an orderly manner, and the hot water was poured in less than a cup of tea.

He bowed to Gu Xiaoyou respectfully and stepped back quietly.

"The service is really excellent." Gu Xiaoyou said with emotion.

He walked around behind the screen and was about to unbutton his clothes when he noticed that Zhixia was still waiting aside. Gu Xiaoyou said uncomfortably: "Zhixia, I don't need you here for the time being. You can leave."

"Don't you need a slave to wipe your body?" Zhixia asked puzzledly.

Zhixia thought she had done something wrong. She was a little frightened when she was repeatedly rejected by Gu Xiaoyou, and asked anxiously: "Did you do something wrong?"

Seeing Zhixia's pitiful look, Gu Xiaoyou suddenly remembered how cautious she was when she was a nurse for the first time, fearing that she would do something wrong, and quickly comforted her: "No, it's just that I'm not used to being taken care of. Let's do this, you're outside.

Wait, I'll call you when I need you."

"Okay, I'll be guarding you at the door. If you need anything, call me." Zhixia then smiled and turned around to wait at the door.

Gu Xiaoyou breathed a sigh of relief and complained while unbuttoning his clothes: "The habits of these ancient people are really hard to adapt to."

After taking off her clothes three times, Gu Xiaoyou tested the water temperature and sat in the tub.

"It's so comfortable." I've been on the road all the way. I haven't had a good shower for a long time.

Gu Xiaoyou poured water on her body, rested her chin lazily on the edge of the tub, and hummed a tune happily.

After humming a few pop songs randomly, Gu Xiaoyou sighed with a little regret: "If Zhixia hadn't been outside, I really wanted to put my phone on and listen to the music and take a bath."

I can only think about it casually. Although it is good to have someone to take care of me, it is better to be alone and free.

After applying soap on the loofah and rubbing it into lather, Gu Xiaoyou quickly wiped her body. Just as she was about to stretch her arms to her back, she remembered what she just said and called out, "Zhixia, can you please help me wipe my back?"

"

"Slave, come here right now." Zhixia happily walked behind the screen, took the loofah from Gu Xiaoyou's hand, and gently rubbed it on her back.

"How is Miss Gu's strength?"

"Very good, thank you."

"You are too polite." Zhixia said with a smile.

She kept moving her hands, and after wiping her back, she asked actively: "Miss Gu, do you need help with anything else?"

"Uh, no, please pass me the handkerchief." Gu Xiaoyou said uncomfortably as he hid his body in the water.

"Okay, slave, bring it here." Zhixia turned around and brought the towel on the stand.

She unfolded the towel and said respectfully: "My servant is here to serve you."

Gu Xiaoyou stretched out the towel and said shyly: "No, no, no, turn around."

Zhixia turned around without knowing why, and heard the sound of rushing water. After a few rustling sounds, Gu Xiaoyou appeared in front of her with her clothes on and her hair wet.

Zhixia quickly picked up another handkerchief and said, "I will help you wring your hair."

Gu Xiaoyou sighed: "Okay, thank you."

Zhixia smiled, dried Gu Xiaoyou's hair lightly and quickly, then picked up the wooden comb on the dressing table and combed her hair.

While combing it, I praised: "Your hair is really nice."

Gu Xiaoyou touched the ends of her hair: "Drink black sesame seeds."

"Black sesame?" Zhixia asked doubtfully.

"Well, black sesame seeds can nourish your hair and clear your stomach."

"Miss Gu knows so much." Zhixia said with admiration.

Gu Xiaoyou said modestly: "I just read a lot of medical books. By the way, how long have you been working at Mu Wuchen's place?"

"Looking back, Miss, I have served my master for four years."

"Four years... Then you must know what kind of official he is, and is his position high?" Gu Xiaoyou asked curiously.

"I don't know much about this, I just do some chores." Zhixia replied cautiously.

"Then tell me everything you know."

"This slave only knows that the master is very busy, and doesn't know much about anything else." Zhixia said vaguely.

Gu Xiaoyou curled her lips, this Zhixia's answer was really impeccable and refused to disclose any useful information.

Suddenly a wave of tiredness came over her, and Gu Xiaoyou yawned loudly.

Zhixia said with a wink: "The bed has been made, my servant will wait for you to sleep."

"Hmm, okay." Gu Xiaoyou responded in confusion, picked up the purse on the dressing table, and was supported by Zhi Xia as she walked back to the bed.

She stuffed her purse under the pillow, kicked off her embroidered shoes, and lay down on the bed.

Zhixia considerately covered Gu Xiaoyou with the quilt, blew out the candle, and left the room softly.

The first night in the capital passed peacefully.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly and the wind was gentle.

Gu Xiaoyou and Mr. Zhou had a simple breakfast and took a carriage to Anyang Street in Lutan.

The carriage stopped at the street corner, and Gu Xiaoyou and Mrs. Zhou stepped out of the carriage.

"Sister Zhou, this street is the shop Mu Wuchen arranged for us. I plan to open another paper shop." Gu Xiaoyou said as he walked.

Zhou looked at the whole street and said in surprise: "Did Mr. Mu arrange this street?"

"Yeah, do you think it's better to open the paper shop at the corner of the street, or in the middle?" Gu Xiaoyou was surprised yesterday, but today she can face this street calmly.

Zhou, on the other hand, looked at the street in surprise, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
