MTL - On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law-Chapter 169 Shocked
Chapter 169 Surprised by Heaven
"The girl is a noble daughter of the Hou family, and now she is valued by the Marquis Wan Qing, and she has made an appointment with the young master, but she went out early in the morning. Before going out, she lied that she was looking for the second girl Su, and she didn't return home until this hour. Doing something shady." Qi Zhiyuan expressed his conjecture.
Zhou Mu patted Qi Zhiyuan on the shoulder forcefully: "What else, finish it at once."
His palm almost crushed Qi Zhiyuan's body.
Young master probably thinks that Miss Gu is innocent and kind, and doesn't like to hear him say that Miss Gu's words are not good, but he really thinks that Miss Gu behaves suspiciously.
"If there is no ghost in her heart, why would Ms. Gu lie? Ms. Gu just came home at this time. Could it be that she was meeting a man outside..."
Receiving Zhou Mu's cold eyes, he immediately shut up: "This subordinate is just talking casually."
Forget it, the young master has been fascinated by Miss Gu, and there is obviously something wrong with Miss Gu, but the young master is unwilling to admit this fact.
He is not afraid of anything else, but he is afraid that Miss Gu will have wild men outside. If he puts a green hat on the young master, what should he do if he has green hair on his head?
Zhou Mu, the master and the servant, walked to the Chuihua Gate, and saw Wan Qinghou waiting there for a while.
Marquis Wan Qing saluted Zhou Mu first, and then asked: "I also just learned that sister Xi goes out early and returns home at night. If you want sister Xi to go out less..."
"Don't lock her up, let her do what she wants. She is a smart girl who knows what she can and can't do. I hope Lord Hou also remembers one thing, she doesn't need to be locked up all day long like other noble girls. In the boudoir." Zhou Mu knew what Wan Qinghou wanted to express, so he interrupted him in time.
Although he only found out today that Xiyan is not as simple as he thought, he doesn't think it's a bad thing.
Who stipulates that women have to leave the door and not step in the second door?
Even if the laws of the Jin Dynasty required this, Xi Yan did not need to obey it.
Wan Qinghou saw Zhou Mu's words about this matter, and agreed with kindness.
Zhou Mu and Wan Qinghou said a few more words before returning to their home.
Qi Zhiyuan followed behind Zhou Mu and asked, "My lord, should we send someone to secretly protect Miss Gu from tomorrow?"
By the way, take a peek at what Miss Gu is doing outside and who she's interacting with.
Zhou Mu turned his eyes to look at Qi Zhiyuan, his eyes were obviously not sharp, but Qi Zhiyuan's scalp felt numb.
"You protect her in the name of protecting her, but in reality you secretly monitor her every move. Is this your intention?" Zhou Mu opened his lips indifferently.
Qi Zhiyuan bowed his head and replied, "This subordinate is also doing it for the sake of the young master."
He was afraid that Miss Gu would hurt the young master one day, so it's better to be cautious.
"She is my unmarried wife. In the future, we will be one husband and wife. No matter what she does or what troubles she causes, I will help her. Besides, I can trust her character. She can't be with me. On the premise of getting married, go out to have private meetings with other men." Zhou Mu simply said all of Qi Zhiyuan's concerns.
Although he was also curious about what Gu Xiyan did when she was away for a day today, he couldn't send someone to monitor her actions.
Qi Zhiyuan was speechless for a moment, unable to refute his master's words.
"Don't you wonder what Miss Gu did outside?"
Qi Zhiyuan received Zhou Mu's cold eyes, so he had to shut up.
Gu Xiyan saw off Zhou Mu and continued to be busy.
She sat down with Hu Die and asked, "What do you think is the best price for our dim sum?"
"How about five hundred words?" Hu Die thought for a while and replied.
Gu Xiyan laughed when she heard the words: "I plan to set a price of fifty taels of silver."
Everyone was stunned, thinking they had heard it wrong.
"Are you joking?" Hu Die couldn't believe it.
"You also tasted today's pastry, isn't it delicious?" Gu Xiyan said, took out the food box, and asked Chunhua to taste it too.
Chunhua's eyes lit up after eating: "It's delicious, it has a faint fragrance, and it's crispy and soft."
"It's delicious, but it's too outrageous." Hu Die barely said that she wouldn't spend so much money on a box of pastries.
"This is a secret cake made by the palace. It has a taste that has never been tasted before, even His Majesty has never tried it." Gu Xiyan said seriously.
Hu Die leaned forward and asked: "Are you really planning to sell a box for fifty taels? With such a high price, who do you think would spend this unjustly?" Hu Die wanted to persuade Gu Xiyan to turn around.
Gu Xiyan smiled: "Didn't I ask you to deliver a letter to Su Mei today? She will help me. And I have four good sisters, and they will also help me at that time."
Several people looked at each other, thinking that Gu Xiyan was crazy about money.
The four girls of the Liu family wished to trample Gu Xiyan to death, how could they help Gu Xiyan sell the pastries?
Fifty taels a box of dim sum, I don’t even have the desire to touch it even if I think about it, it’s outrageous anyway.
"Try it, I only prepared a few hundred boxes anyway. Even if you can't sell it, it's decent to give as a gift. So it's decided, fifty taels a box. If it sells well, the price will increase!" Gu Xiyan yawned : "Tomorrow I have to get up early, I'm going to take a bath and rest."
Hu Die also knew that she was tired.
At first, she was making dim sum, but later she had to write the menu for the dish auction, and she had to teach the steps to the cook herself. When she watched from the sidelines, she felt tired for Gu Xiyan, not to mention Gu Xiyan herself.
"If you work so hard, you will surely succeed in the future." Hu Die was rarely sensational.
She has lived a dull life these years, and always thinks that most of the women in the boudoir are like her.
It was only when I met Gu Xiyan that I realized that women can also live such a wonderful life and live such a hard life.
Gu Xiyan smiled.
This life will always be better than the previous life, at least she still has a chance to work hard, no matter whether she succeeds or not.
She was indeed physically and mentally exhausted. After taking a bath, she collapsed on the bed and fell asleep.
The next day, Gu Xiyan got up early in the morning. She deliberately changed into a red short jacket embroidered with dark flowers on her eyebrows, and matched it with a horse-face skirt of the same color. Tassel hairpin.
Today, her makeup is also more refined and thicker than in the past, depicting a bright lip balm.
Her complexion is fairer than snow, and she wears plain clothes on weekdays, but today she is dressed in red for the first time, which complements her delicate face and is shocking.
As soon as she came out with this outfit, everyone gave a "wow" in unison.
"It's a good thing you're already famous, otherwise if the men outside see it, everyone will want to marry you back home." Hu Die circled around Gu Xiyan, being overwhelmed by her good looks.
"Will it be too gorgeous?" Gu Xiyan was not sure.
She wants to show off a little today, and she also needs to force out the anger of the four sisters of the Liu family, so she has to spend some effort in dressing.
It's just that she is so big, she rarely wears such brightly colored clothes, and today's outfit is really eye-catching.
"No, no, you look good, so you should dress like this." Hu Die looked away at Gu Xiyan.
"Xiaodie, you are ready to prepare. I will go to Zaohui Hall first to say hello. I may go out with my four younger sisters." Gu Xiyan talked about the business.
Since you want to sell the cakes for a price, you must take the four sisters of the Liu family to Jixianglou.
