Chapter 121: A Treat
In the next few days, Yun Youzhai was indeed as Su Qin expected, and there were frequent strange guests who wanted to sneak into the kitchen.
But Lao Li was very vigilant, and sent more people to guard the kitchen, and once he found something suspicious, he immediately took action without mercy.
After such a repetition, the shopkeeper Xu, who had nothing to gain for a few days, was a little unable to sit still. Isn't it just stealing a teacher? Why is it so hard! It must be those people who are too useless!
He paced back and forth in his study, and finally made him think of a way to teach Su Qin a lesson.
In the afternoon of the same day, the shopkeeper Xu came to the governor's residence with a generous gift, and the governor smiled from ear to ear.
"Shopkeeper Xu is too polite. Has Shopkeeper Xu encountered any difficulties, maybe this official can help?"
Shopkeeper Xu went straight to the point and talked about the matter with Su Qin.
I thought that with the identity and status of the governor, it would be a matter of one sentence to deal with Su Qin, but I didn't want the governor on the other side to change his face, so he pushed back the generous gift of the shopkeeper Xu, shook his head and said, "Shopkeeper Xu, it's not that the official doesn't help you, but that Gu Niangzi has nobles behind him, and I can't help it."
Shopkeeper Xu was surprised: "She is just a rural woman from the village, she has no power and powerless, how can she have a noble person as a backer?"
The governor didn't dare to make a difference, but smiled bitterly, "Anyway, don't provoke her before that person leaves."
"But ......"
Shopkeeper Xu wanted to say something, but when he saw the governor waving his hand, he turned his back and turned away, looking unwilling to say more. He had no choice but to be full of unwillingness, and planned to go back and find a way.
But just as he stepped one foot, a subordinate passed by him and hurried in.
"Lord Governor, Lord Xu has returned to Beijing, and I will tell the villain to tell you."
The governor was surprised, "When?"
"Just now." The subordinate recounted the scene he had just seen, "Lord Xu suddenly received a letter, and after reading it, his face changed greatly, and he simply packed it up and left in a hurry."
The governor's eyes lit up slightly, and he finally sent the big Buddha away!
Suddenly, I remembered the generous gift of the shopkeeper Xu just now.
He immediately raised his voice to call the shopkeeper Xu outside the door: "Brother Xu, please stay!"
Xu Huan is gone, this place is his world, is he afraid that a weak woman will not succeed?
Winery.
Su Qin was making wine, and she was obsessed with cultivating herb seedlings some time ago, so much so that many important things were left behind, and winemaking was one of them. She tapped the amount of wine she had left, and decided that it was not enough for the restaurant, so she bought the ingredients to make it. was doing it energetically, and Lao Li came in a hurry. new
Su Qin's face was puzzled: "Shopkeeper Xu's people have gone to the restaurant to make trouble again?"
Lao Li panted and shook his head: "No, there is no trouble, it's just that just now a guy bumped into Shopkeeper Xu and went to the governor with a lot of things, Gu Niangzi, I think he is fighting such a big battle, nine times out of ten, it is to target you!"
This is not the first time this has been done.
When the restaurant changed hands, it was Shopkeeper Xu who used his connections in the government to force Shopkeeper Wu to hand it over!
Lao Li is afraid that he will repeat his old tricks, after all, Su Qin is a woman, and her husband is not in the family, where can he withstand it?
Su Qin didn't mess up when he heard this, and smiled slightly: "Don't be so nervous, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, as long as we don't do anything wrong, it's useless for him to find the Heavenly King Laozi."
Lao Li: "......"
It seems that his worries are unnecessary!
Thinking of Su Qin's ability, Lao Li's hanging heart relaxed slightly, but he still advised, "I know that Gu Niangzi is a person with ideas, but the stakes are very high, so don't take it lightly. Gu Niangzi, if you encounter any danger, don't hold on to yourself, learn to find someone to help!"
Su Qin narrowed her eyes slightly, Lao Li's words reminded her that there was indeed someone here who could help.
Sending Lao Li away, Su Qin thought of what he said and went to the village to find Xu Huan, but learned the news that Xu Huan had returned to Beijing.
Su Qin returned in vain.
Xu Huan also relied on
If she can't do it, then she can only rely on herself.
"Brother and daughter-in-law, why don't we go back to the village and hide? Wait for Ah Ci to come back and then open the door for business."
Gu Nianlan probably heard the news from Lao Li, and as soon as she returned to the winery, she hurriedly found Su Qin.
Su Qin shook his head: "That's not it."
Gu Nianlan was like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth, with an anxious face: "This is not enough? Lord Xu has returned to Beijing, and now the highest status of our here is the governor, and the shopkeeper Xu has given him so many gifts, they must have already negotiated, and when the time comes, the people on both sides will join forces to make things difficult for us?"
The more Gu Nianlan thought about it, the more panicked she became, and even her eyes turned red.
Su Qin was taken aback, and hurriedly found a handkerchief to wipe her tears, and then held her hand to comfort: "Sister, have you forgotten? Xiang Gong and Brother Xunfeng also have quite a status in the military camp, if someone dares to embarrass me without long eyes, let's send a letter to Xiang Gong, and Xiang Gong will definitely come back to help us both of us."
Gu Nianlan was puzzled: "Ah Ci has such a great ability?"
Su Qin nodded: "Xianggong's position in the army is not low."
Thinking that Su Qin had gone to the military camp to find Gu Ci before, Gu Nianlan's hanging heart was slightly relieved.
"Yes...... We can still find Ah Ci."
Early the next morning, Gu Nianlan set off early to go to work in Yunyouzhai, and Su Qin slept at home for a short while before getting up from the bed. She cleaned herself up briefly, and was about to go out, but saw a few people outside the door of the winery, and the winery had not yet opened, so it was not a guest.
She looked at the middle-aged man in the lead suspiciously, "Who are you?"
The middle-aged man made a salute and declared his identity.
It turned out that he was the governor's person, and he was ordered by his master to invite Su Qin to the mansion as a guest.
Hongmen Feast!
Su Qin narrowed his eyes.
She glanced at the sky, "It's not appropriate to be a guest at this point, right?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "The governor admires Gu Niangzi very much, specially invites him, and asks Gu Niangzi not to shirk. As our adults, inviting you has already given you enough face."
Su Qin: "......"
The lover invited her to a Hongmen banquet, and she still has to be grateful to others, right?
"Gu Niangzi, please."
The middle-aged man had a clear smile on his face, but he was in a posture that if you don't go with me, I will help you go.
Su Qin couldn't, so he had to agree.
As soon as she left with the governor's men on the front foot, a guy from Yunyouzhai ran back to the restaurant in a hurry: "Oh no, Gu Niangzi was taken away by the governor's people!"
"Too much deception!" Gu Nianlan was shocked, threw down the dish she was cutting, and walked out with a kitchen knife, "I'm going to save people!"
