When Qi Zhiyuan came off duty from Zhou Mu, he found that his master's face was even more haggard. He did not leave the official office at noon, and he did not know if he had lunch.
In the past, if anything happened, they could just call Miss Gu to calm the young master's mood, but the young master had ordered them not to call on Miss Gu to save the situation.
After returning to the Zhou Mansion, Qi Zhiyuan said to Zhou Mu: "If you have something to do, you may want to talk to your subordinates. Maybe my subordinates can help you share your worries. If you really don't want to talk to your subordinates, you can try talking to Miss Gu..."
…”
"Don't mention her in front of me in the future." Zhou Mu interrupted Qi Zhiyuan.
Qi Zhiyuan's expression changed slightly: "Mr., Master, has your heart changed?"
No way, the young master doesn’t look like a fast-paced person, how could he change his mind in such a short period of time?
Obviously, I was happy to have a date with Miss Gu last night...
Zhou Mu glanced at Qi Zhiyuan coldly and left for the meditation room.
Qi Zhiyuan quickly followed him, but the door of the meditation room closed in front of him, easily blocking him out.
He felt that the matter was serious and hurriedly went to see Aunt Yin to discuss the matter. After hearing this, Aunt Yin said categorically: "Young master will definitely not change his mind. Something must have happened that we don't know about."
"I also feel that the young master does not look like a heartless person, but the young master just made it clear that he will never mention Miss Gu again." Qi Zhiyuan frowned: "Then what happened to the young master?"
It's only been a few days since we got engaged, so the young master won't want to take care of the girl again, right?
You must know that Miss Gu was married to the King of Qin just before. If her marriage to the young master falls through, how will Miss Gu face all kinds of rumors in the future?
"Let's not be anxious. Maybe Young Master will figure it out in two days." Aunt Yin looked up at the gloomy sky and murmured to herself: "The weather was sunny yesterday. It will change no matter what."
Qi Zhiyuan sighed softly, hesitating whether to report the news about the young master to His Majesty.
Maybe things aren't that bad, I guess we'll have to wait and see.
Don't panic, don't be confused.
The master likes Miss Gu so much, how can he not want to give up the girl? Besides, Miss Gu has some secrets, she is really a rare good girl, she is beautiful, and she is a perfect match for the master.
Even though he comforted himself in this way, Qi Zhiyuan still panicked.
He felt that if the young master missed Miss Gu, he would definitely become a loner.
Another person involved, Gu Xiyan, didn't know what happened next door. She left the Hou Mansion early in the morning, went to Jixiang Building, took 250,000 taels of silver notes and went to Su's house.
Su Mei saw the banknotes that Gu Xiyan took out and counted them carefully, then stepped forward and hugged Gu Xiyan tightly: "You are so awesome!"
Gu Xiyan smiled and shook her head: "I'm not as capable as you think."
It's not that she is great, it's that she has the advantage of being reborn and knows some unknown things, and she also takes advantage of Su Ho as her own.
"Don't be so modest. If you hadn't fooled the Liu sisters and Princess Yongjia, how could you have earned so much in just two days?" Su Mei continued to count the banknotes with a smile, grinning from ear to ear.
Gu Xiyan thought for a while and then said: "My luck is also good. His Royal Highness King Zhao made a lot of efforts this time. Not only did he spend a lot of money, he also brought two gods of wealth, Princess Baohe and Princess Yongjia. With these three
Only now can we earn so much this time."
Speaking of this, she said with a straight face: "Rong Song is here. Tell him that he really can't find anyone to go to Mocheng. He must handle this matter himself, and he must handle it before the eighth day of October."
!”
Su Mei was confused when she heard this: "Why should it be done before the eighth day of October?"
Is this some big day?
"After all, you let him do it. There are some things I can't say." Gu Xiyan avoided Su Mei's question.
The eighth day of October was the day when it started to rain heavily in the capital. She couldn't quite remember the exact day it started raining in Mocheng, but it was always around the eighth day.
If this matter can be done before it rains, a lot of money can be saved. Otherwise, when the tenants in Mocheng see the rain in Mocheng, they probably know that next year's spring plowing will not be a problem, and the money spent by then will not be so easy to negotiate.
"Since the matter in Mocheng is urgent, let Rong Song make the trip in person. The grain warehouses in Bafang Hutong have not yet been opened, and the warehouses are still under construction. I will personally supervise it, so don't worry." Speaking of business, Su
I don't dare to be careless.
Gu Xiyan and Su Mei discussed the details again, and had lunch at Su's house before returning to the Hou Mansion.
Previously, she was busy organizing the food festival, leaving other matters to Su Mei and Rong Song. The grain store hadn't opened yet, so she suddenly felt free.
After taking a light nap, she looked at the hourglass and knew that Zhou Mu was already on duty.
When Zhou Mu left last night, he said he wanted to see her today. I wonder if Min'er will be asked to come over and deliver the news?
Thinking of Zhou Mu, a smile appeared on her face.
Chunhua saw it and teased her a few times, saying that she was feeling young, and she gave her a few punches.
However, Zhou Mu did not send any news until the evening.
Early the next morning, Gu Xiyan received the news from Su Mei. Rong Song had found some powerful helpers, and the group had already set off for Mocheng. Before leaving, Rong Song issued a military order, saying that he would definitely arrive at ten
Get things done before the eighth day of the lunar month.
Gu Xiyan's worried heart was relieved, her days became more leisurely, and she spent more time thinking about Zhou Mu.
She didn't see Zhou Mu in the following period, nor did she have any news from Zhou Mu.
It was as if suddenly, Zhou Mu disappeared from her life.
On the day she and Zhou Mu agreed to go on a trip, she got up early in the morning to dress up and put on a rare set of intricately patterned, delicate and elegant Sichuan brocade dress, paired with simple, elegant and elegant hair accessories and earrings.
She had put on bright lipstick, but she felt it was too deliberate, so she wiped it off hurriedly.
After finishing dressing up, she felt that she was not so deliberate, so she sat in the hall and waited.
She looked for a book of stories and read them. She read the contents but never cared about them. She glanced outside from time to time and always felt that something was wrong.
After waiting absentmindedly for about half an hour, Qiushi ran in and said: "It's strange, it's already this hour, why didn't Mr. Zhou come to deliver the news? We don't know where or when we are scheduled to meet.
"
Gu Xiyan raised her head and looked at Qiushi, feeling that Qiushi's words made sense.
Zhou Mu has never been such a shaky person when doing things, but the time and place for this appointment have not been decided. Min'er is usually the most frequent visitor to Xiyuan, but she has not been to Xiyuan in the past few days.
"Have you seen Min'er in the past few days?" Gu Xiyan suddenly asked.
Qiushi was stunned, "If you didn't tell me, I didn't realize that I haven't seen Min'er for several days."
"Is something going to happen?" Gu Xiyan murmured to herself, unable to sit still.
"Why don't you bring Min'er over and ask?" Qiushi suggested.
"Go ahead."
Not long after, Min'er came and said hello to Gu Xiyan.
"How are you, young master, lately?" Gu Xiyan asked directly.
