Xu Yanqing thought Zhou Mu was going to give him a pastry to taste, and just as he was about to reach out, Zhou Mu threw the pastry into his mouth, blatantly showing off: "Xi Yan specially made it for me early in the morning, and here it bears her love for me."
Love and admiration cannot be given to Mr. Xu."
Only then did Xu Yanqing realize that Zhou Mu was waiting for him here.
He said how could Zhou Mu take out the cakes and eat them in front of him for no reason? It was intentional.
He was jealous to death in his heart, but on the surface he was calm and calm, "I'll ask Xi Yan to make some for me next time!"
Zhou Mu sneered: "You'd better wait for the next life."
Xu San can never expect to eat cakes made by Xi Yan herself in her next life.
"Does Xiyan know that Mr. Zhou is so naive?" Xu Yanqing glanced at the cakes with greedy eyes and gritted her teeth.
"Xi Yan likes everything about me." Zhou Mu slowly ate another piece of pastry: "It's a pity that there's less. I'll ask her to make more for me next time."
Xu Yanqing's face was a little distorted because of jealousy. It must be said that although Zhou Mu's move was a bit childish, he was very good at killing people and breaking people's hearts.
Xu Yanqing stopped looking at Zhou Mu's proud face and walked away with heavy steps.
After Zhou Mu achieved his goal, he was reluctant to continue eating and planned to save a few pieces to eat in the afternoon.
On the other side, Su Zhai.
Su Mei looked at the pouring rain outside the window, and suddenly remembered a date mentioned by Gu Xiyan, which was the eighth day of October.
Today is not the eighth day of the Lunar New Year
Is it just a coincidence? But she clearly remembered that Xi Yan said that she should let Rong Song get things done before the eighth day of October. It was raining so heavily in the capital, but she didn't know if it was raining in Mocheng as well.
And she doubted whether Xi Yan could predict the future, otherwise why would she designate the eighth day of October?
Just when she was thinking wildly, Su Ho suddenly came to her and asked: "You have taken over the Bafang Hutong street."
Su Mei glanced at Su Ho: "So what?"
This matter cannot be hidden. Rong Song went to Mocheng, and she was taking care of the affairs of Bafang Hutong.
Su Ho bit his lower lip: "Where did you get so much money to buy an entire street!"
After a long investigation, she determined that the terrain in Bafang Hutong was most suitable for building a granary. If you want to open a grain warehouse in the capital, Bafang Hutong is undoubtedly the most suitable.
As a result, she was a step too late, and the entire Bafang Hutong was occupied by someone first, and this person was Su Mei, whom she had always looked down upon.
How can she believe this fact?
When did Su Mei actually have the ability to buy an entire street?
Although the Su family is engaged in business, it is impossible for Su Jing to spend so much money to help Su Mei.
Since it’s not the Su family helping Su Mei, then who can it be?
She suddenly thought of someone, that was Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan extorted more than 100,000 taels from Princess Yongjia alone by raising the price at the food festival. She sent the anonymous letter to Princess Yongjia just because she was jealous of Gu Xiyan.<
/p>
Su Mei and Gu Xiyan are close, so it is not normal for Gu Xiyan to help Su Mei
"Gu Xiyan is helping you," Su Ho asked, looking at Su Mei with burning eyes.
"You are overthinking." Of course Su Mei would not admit this easily. She was too lazy to talk nonsense to Su Ho: "Yunjin, see you off."
It can't be said that both she and Rong Song are helping Xiyan
But Su Ho thought to himself: "It must be Gu Xiyan, she is helping you behind the scenes. Don't get too complacent too soon, sooner or later I will win you."
After saying this, she walked away.
Yun Jin watched Su Ho walk away and asked in a low voice: "The third girl guessed it was Miss Gu, will this have any impact?"
"So what if we know that Bafang Hutong has been captured by us. If things go well in Mocheng, next spring plowing will not be a problem. Not only do we need to open the grain warehouse quickly, but we will not be left behind in grain planting. Soho is already a few steps behind us.
Step, she can't make a big wave at the moment." Su Mei looked at the pouring rain outside the window: "I just don't know when the rain will stop."
Not to mention that Su Mei didn’t know, even Qin Tianjian misjudged the intensity of the rain this time.
It rained non-stop day and night for half a month. There was water in the streets and alleys of Beijing, and many people's homes were flooded.
When the rain stopped, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
It has been raining for half a month, and everything in the city or the suburbs is in a mess. As the right minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Zhou Mu naturally has to take care of disaster relief matters.
He leaves early and returns late every day. By the time the disaster relief matters are completed, it is already November.
Gu Xiyan knew that he was busy and did not bother him, so she was unable to see Zhou Mu in person some days. However, she made some snacks and sent them to the next door every now and then, so that Zhou Mu would not be hungry while running around.
On this day, it was rare for Xu Yanqing to be with Zhou Mu, and she saw Zhou Mu slowly take out a piece of pastry and then throw it into his mouth in slow motion.
When Xu Yanqing smelled this familiar fragrance, his eyebrows jumped slightly. The man named Zhou was playing this trick in front of him again. Is he tired of it?
"What snacks Mr. Zhou is eating smells so good." The colleague on the side is Ambassador Guang Yingku, surnamed Huang. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw the pastries that Zhou Mu brought out.
Zhou Mu was waiting for someone to ask, and replied calmly: "My fiancée specially made the pastry early in the morning. She is an excellent cook and considerate. It is my blessing that I can get engaged to her."
Points."
Xu Yanqing sneered from the side. Don't think he couldn't hear it. Zhou Mu was deliberately showing off his wife. No, he was showing off his fiancée.
We haven’t gotten married yet, who knows if things will change? Maybe Zhou Mu showed off too early
"She is the eldest daughter of Wanqing Hou Mansion, right? I heard that Miss Gu is as beautiful as a flower, virtuous and kind. Mr. Zhou is indeed very blessed." Mr. Huang has no doubt about it and echoes Zhou Mu's words.
Xu Yanqing couldn't help it at this moment, and said sarcastically: "Isn't this just an engagement? As long as we don't get married for one day, the marriage may change."
Although he didn't want to admit it, he was jealous of Zhou Mu.
Damn it, Zhou Mu shows off in front of him all day long, which is basically killing his heart.
Zhou Mu shows off to outsiders every day that these are snacks made by his fiancée. The entire government knows that Zhou Mu has a fiancée who is beautiful and skillful.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, our marriage will definitely come true. When Xiyan and I get married, I will definitely invite Mr. Xu over for a wedding banquet!" Zhou Mu said, putting another piece of pastry into his mouth.
Xu Yanqing got angry when she saw him like this, so she simply got up and walked away, out of sight and out of mind.
Angry, Zhou kept showing off to him all day long, showing off how good his relationship with Gu Xiyan was, even though he had the chance to marry Gu Xiyan.
Originally, he had the opportunity to eat pastries made by Gu Xiyan himself, but now it was Zhou Mu showing off in front of him.
The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt, and he suddenly had an evil thought, wanting to snatch Gu Xiyan away from Zhou Mu.
Only Zhou Mu's identity may be that of a relative of the emperor, and Gu Xiyan chose Zhou Mu again, so what would he take unless Zhou Mu voluntarily gave up on Gu Xiyan.
