MTL - On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law-Chapter 19 Mr. Zhou must not have you in his heart

  Chapter 19 Mr. Zhou must not have you in his heart

  Gu Xiyan suppressed the chaotic emotions in her heart, "I heard something."

  She didn't dare to look at Zhou Mu, because she was afraid that Zhou Mu would find out that she was guilty.

   "This person disrupts the price of the coal market and alarms the government and the public. He is bold and ambitious."

  Every time Zhou Mu said a word, Gu Xiyan's heart beat faster.

  She really didn't know this would happen. Inadvertently, she remembered that such a thing happened in her previous life. It was Su Ho who spread the rumors. This year was a severe winter, which coincided with what happened in August of the eleventh year of Chengde.

  Remembering this, she rushed to attack Su Ho. She had thought that she might make money, and planned to take this opportunity to try her hand and let Su Ho return empty-handed. She didn't want to cause such a big commotion and alarmed the court.

   Obviously there was not such a big fight in the previous life, and Su Ho didn't earn that much. It is not known whether Su Mei bought too much silver frost charcoal, or because she temporarily added a condition of "not selling more than a hundred catties" that caused the price to skyrocket.

   "Maybe that person just hit the right shot?" Gu Xiyan answered weakly.

   Zhou Mu curled his lips lightly when he heard the words: "If you can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver in just ten days, then this person's fortune is really good. Do you think it's possible?"

  Gu Xiyan was silent, this question was too dangerous, she didn't dare to answer indiscriminately.

  She was restless, and still thinking about meeting Su Mei.

   Zhou Mu and the household department intervened in this matter, not to mention she panicked, Su Mei must have panicked too. Although she thought she was picking on the omissions and did not commit a crime, she always felt guilty facing Zhou Mu.

  At this time, she also wanted to understand why Zhou Mu came to Jixianglou for dinner. It was nothing more than the dense crowd here, and the rich and powerful like to come to Jixianglou to eat and drink spicy food.

  And this time they mainly sell silver frost charcoal, and most of the customers are rich and powerful families, so Zhou Mu chooses to be in Jixianglou, and he doesn't need to ask for information, some people will spit out the news they know like beans.

   She had a hard time eating this meal.

   "Do girls eat so little?" Zhou Mu observed Gu Xiyan for a while, and found that she ate like cat food, pitifully small, no wonder she was so thin.

  Gu Xiyan really had no appetite, so she made up an excuse: "I ate too much breakfast, and I'm not hungry yet. Son, I'm full."

   Zhou Mu glanced at her indifferently, "Eat more."

  Under Zhou Mu's gaze, Gu Xiyan bit the bullet and ate some more.

  She put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, "I've been out for too long, son, I want to go back."

   "Zhiyuan, go see Miss Gu off." Zhou Mu didn't want to keep her anymore.

  Gu Xiyan breathed a sigh of relief, put on the veiled hat, and left the private room.

  Qi Zhiyuan sent Gu Xiyan downstairs, saw her getting into the carriage, and returned to Zhou Mu to report.

  Zhou Mu was watching the carriage that Gu Xiyan was riding downstairs starting. She said she wanted to go back, why did she go in the opposite direction to Wanqinghou's mansion?

  When I was talking to Gu Xiyan before, I always felt that she seemed to have something on her mind, but he didn't want to ask more.

  Watching Gu Xiyan's carriage go away, Zhou Mu pondered whether to arrange Gu Xiyan's meeting as soon as possible.

   Half an hour later, in the northern suburbs of the capital, Gu Xiyan saw Su Mei.

  As soon as Su Mei saw her, she dragged her to the hillside.

  It is autumn, the season when everything is sluggish, and the weeds on the hillside are withered and lifeless.

  There are only a few wildflowers that are sparsely blooming.

  Su Mei and Gu Xiyan chose a seat with a good view and sat down, and they didn't speak for a long time.

   Later they looked at each other and couldn't help laughing out loud.

  Finally, Su Mei smiled and fell on Gu Xiyan's shoulder, the laughter gradually died down, and she asked seriously: "Did you release the news that this year is a severe winter?"

   Gu Xiyan shook her head: "It's not me, it's Su Ho. I learned of Su Ho's plan by chance, so I rushed ahead of her."

  In fact, although Suho also implemented this plan in his previous life, it didn't cause much trouble.

"It's a pity that this time the Ministry of Household Affairs was alarmed, and the person who is actually investigating this matter is a young master surnamed Zhou. I just ran into Mr. Zhou in Jixiang Tower. Speaking of which, I have some friendship with him. If he knows what is behind it I'm scheming..." Gu Xiyan's voice faded away.

"We didn't do anything harmful to nature, so what are we afraid of? Besides, I was the one who dealt with the outside world, and no one knew that you were behind me. Besides, we didn't buy or sell by force, so you don't have to be afraid of that Mr. Zhou." Su Mei patted Gu Xiyan's shoulder lightly.

   "I'm either afraid, or I just don't want him to know that I did this, and I don't want to be hated by him." Gu Xiyan said dully.

  Su Mei looked sideways when she heard the words: "Xi Yan, do you like that Mr. Zhou?"

  Gu Xiyan glared at her angrily: "It's not what you think. I have a relationship with Mr. Zhou, and I regard him as a benefactor, confidant and friend. By the way, Mr. Zhou still wants to be my matchmaker."

  Su Mei listened carefully, and after a while she said: "Then I know, whether you have Mr. Zhou in your heart or not, Mr. Zhou definitely doesn't have you in his heart."

"Originally, he only has family and country in his heart, so how can he pretend to be a woman?" After a pause, Gu Xiyan added: "Now, his political career is about to start, and soon he will enter the household Is it on duty?"

  Su Mei felt that Gu Xiyan's tone was so different when she mentioned Zhou Mu, but she also said that she didn't have a relationship with Zhou Mu.

  That Zhou Mu was also strange, facing such a good-looking Xiyan, he was not tempted, and instead found a man for Xiyan.
