Gu Zhang pondered for a long time, hesitating whether to agree or not, when he suddenly saw Gu Fei coming out of the pharmacy.
He said to Zhang Ze, "I'll discuss it with my daughter."
He pulled Gu Fei aside and talked about the matter.
Gu Fei blinked his eyes, "Dad, I think it's okay."
"Do you know who this young man is? He is most likely the young
master from the county guard's family." "Didn't you want to go to the escort agency to hire someone a few days ago? The guards of the governor's family must be very skilled, and we know their origins. Besides, they are certainly not short of money and will not be jealous of our little food. If they go with us, wouldn't it mean that we have two more free guards? "
Gu Zhang was a little surprised, "Is he really the governor's son?"
Gu Fei nodded, "I saw the lady who was with them that day. She was the governor's wife."
"But, Dad, since they didn't identify themselves, I guess. We'd better pretend we don't know."
Gu Zhang nodded slightly, "If they don't tell me, I won't ask. It's best to pretend that I don't know."
"The Sheriff is also a rare good official, let's just deal with this. You should protect this young master."
Su Chen lay on Chen Hu's back, watching Gu Zhang and his daughter muttering to each other.
He couldn't understand what a grown man had to discuss with a little girl.
Just as they were thinking about it, the two of them turned around and walked over. Gu Zhang said with a smile: "It's okay to go together. There will be someone to take care of you on the way. The few people we came out with agreed to meet at the East City Gate at noon. If you want to leave, don't leave." It's okay if it's late."
Zhang Ze felt happy, "Thank you very much, uncle. Let's go buy a carriage and meet him at noon."
The Gu family went shopping in Tongcheng again and bought some expensive vegetables. When the door opened, Gu Fei said "Hey", "Dad, there is a bodyguard agency here."
Gu Zhang looked up and saw a plaque hanging on the door with the words "Zhenwei Bodyguard Agency" written on it.
Gu Zhang couldn't help but ask the old man guarding the door, "Old man, are you here to pick up the escorts going to Donghai County?"
The old man waved his hand, "We won't pick up the escorts. We don't have the manpower. All the masters in the escort agency have been sent out."
This time Gu Zhang completely ran out of ideas.
At this time, in a room in the backyard of the escort agency, Uncle Ma had just finished writing a secret letter. He basically wrote everything Gu Fei did during this period in it, trying not to mix personal emotions, so that it would be easier for the prince to make a decision. Accurate judgment.
After writing the secret letter, Uncle Ma sealed it with fire paint and gave it to the steward of the escort agency. The steward had his own channels to deliver the secret letter to the prince.
The Gu family never expected that Uncle Ma was in the escort agency. After asking a few questions, they left. It was almost noon. It was not easy to cook with a fire in this city, so the family found an inexpensive-looking restaurant. Ordered a bowl of noodles.
Lian'er originally refused to eat, saying that she could just eat steamed buns, but Gu Feifei ordered a bowl for her.
Several brothers from the Gu family were not full after one bowl, so another one asked for another bowl.
Gu Zhang finally settled the bill, one hundred coins for a bowl of noodles, a total of one, two or three coins.
When the old lady heard one, two or three coins, her body shook a few times, as if she was about to faint.
Before she even walked out of the store, she cursed: "This store is too evil. A bowl of noodles costs a hundred cents. I have never seen anything like this in my decades of life!"
The store owner glared at the old lady and said, "No. Don't eat it if you don't care. What's the price of white flour now?"
"If you keep shouting, believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"
