Mu's affairs were controlled within a certain range and did not cause uproar in the city.
Gu Fenglin came to see Mu Yunhan, held her hand and smiled: "Often when I don't see you, you will cause trouble."
Mu Yunhan asked him: "Am I doing well in this matter?"
Although Gu Fenglin did not show up, he knew these things well and immediately smiled and said: "It was done very well."
Just thinking about Gu Yilan getting in the way, she felt a little unhappy, but she didn't mention it and only told her about the palace's gossip.
"There are no more cats in the palace. It is said that you are a destined person and are protected by divine beasts, which is why you have survived many disasters."
Mu Yunhan was surprised: "Did you let people spread these words?"
Gu Fenglin said: "I thought you were the one who told people to spread the news?"
The two looked at each other and both smiled: "Then who spread the news? If you find it, you have to treat him to a drink."
It saves them a lot of trouble. After all, things like body-protecting beasts are not easy to come by. If you want to cause trouble, you have to think carefully.
The emperor was sitting in the palace and suddenly sneezed.
He never dreamed that such a word would be spread after he said it casually in Concubine Jiang's palace.
Mu Yunhan finally couldn't hold back: "Why did Gu Yilan go to see Ruyi off? Didn't Concubine Jiang ask him to exorcise evil spirits? Did the palace know something?"
"Maybe it's a coincidence." Gu Fenglin also frowned: "The palace shouldn't know anything. Not many people in the clan know this, let alone talk nonsense."
Mrs. Gu's skills are much more ruthless than Mrs. Mu's.
The clan is not allowed to spread rumors to outsiders. If anyone dares to spread the news outside, he can guarantee that that person's life will be worse than death.
Therefore, even if the Gu clan members knew about something shocking, they would only dare to do it covertly within a limited scope.
The next few days were calm.
Apart from the fact that a few people on Gu Fenglin's list came to Mu Yunhan's shop to get goods, there was nothing commendable.
The Mu family selected two more clan elders. One was on Mu Yunhan's side, and the other was on Mu Er's side. They were equally divided.
Mother and daughter Mu Yao and Mrs. Mu lived in seclusion. No news about them was heard outside, and the world had almost forgotten their existence.
It was the New Year's Eve and everyone wanted to buy New Year's goods. Mu Yunhan's business was booming.
When the first batch of vegetables came out of the hot spring village, she packed them into gift boxes in the same way as the herbal medicine restaurant started, and sent a portion to the Meng Mansion, Wu Mansion and other good families, which became a fashionable thing in Beijing.
Many people wanted it, but she apologized and said no. Then she turned around and went to the house with Gu Fenglin and Mu Ying to cook a hot meal in a copper pot over a fire. It was very pleasant.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Huanhualou branch opened.
It snowed heavily the day before, and the streets were glazed with ice the next day.
Due to the curfew in central Beijing, bidding meetings in Huanhua Tower can no longer be held late at night like in other places.
It can only start at 4:00 a.m. (five o'clock) in the afternoon and continue until 4:00 a.m. (eight o'clock).
Mu Yunhan's driver is from the south and is not good at traveling on ice and winter roads.
Gu Fenglin was afraid that her car would skid and cause an accident, so he came to pick up her and Mu Ying early.
As the carriage was walking, it suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves, and a horse came galloping, causing everyone who was walking cautiously on the street to curse.
Mu Ying was curious and opened the car curtain to look out. She couldn't help but said: "Look, that man is so powerful. He can actually ride a horse on such a slippery ground!" (To be continued)
