Chapter 356: Lychees are expensive
After leaving the Langya Palace, Su Xiaomu still had a feeling that was not very real.
The two of them said a few days ago that life and death will live up to each other, and today they have become good friends again.
Although Lu Nianyou paid a great price, Su Xiaomu felt that it should be worth it in her heart.
The marriage with the Marquis of Wuding tormented Lu Nianyou for many years.
The reason why she wants to have a child so much is also to stabilize her position in the Hou Mansion.
Because I knew that my sister's path would not work, I wanted to have a good relationship with my husband.
But now that the sisters' relationship has recovered, Xiao Yiyi is willing to take care of Lu Nianyou, both emotionally and status, how can Lu Nianyou still care about Wu Dinghou and the relationship between the two of them that has not existed for long?
Even if Lu Nianyou liked Marquis Wuding so much at first, the young general's demeanor was enough to attract the attention of every woman in the capital.
But the general has become a gentleman, and his feelings are worn out day after day, and the love like the sea cannot withstand such evaporation.
When did Lu Nianyou dislike Wu Dinghou?
Is it the cold face of Marquis Wuding when the two of them got married, or is it the concubine he took to the mansion one after another?
Knowing that he was an unworthy person, Lu Nianyou still tried to send his feelings out again and again.
The concubines and concubines who were born were all slapping her in the face.
The glimpse of the youth can't match the true face of human nature that slowly gets along in life.
Su Xiaomu went home with a heavy heart, Gu Jingcheng had already come back from work to teach Gu Ruonan to read and write.
He came back early these days, after Gu Ruonan's last incident in the martial arts hall, Su Xiaomu would ask the subordinates who served Gu Ruonan to go to the martial arts hall almost every day to ask Master Gu Ruonan how he studied today?
It's not that she deliberately wants to spy on her, but the little girl's behavior needs to be restrained, and Gu Ruonan is still easy to get emotional.
Someone taught Gu Ruonan to learn martial arts, and Gu Jingcheng taught her to read and write when she was free.
If Su Xiaomu came back early at night, he would also sleep with Gu Ruonan, and then tell her a bedtime story that she was interested in.
Such a day was originally very peaceful, but Su Xiaomu looked at Gu Jingcheng this time, and his eyes thought of the indifferent face of Marquis Wuding when he was late today.
Those eyes were not worried about his wife at all, but were full of fear of the blame of the Langya Palace.
Su Xiaomu didn't know what Xiao Yiyi felt when she saw Wu Dinghou's appearance?
The general she was young was no longer what she remembered.
Gu Jingcheng saw Su Xiaomu who came back, he put down the book he read to Gu Ruonan in his hand, beckoned Gu Ruonan to the side to read, he stretched out his hand and patted the empty seat next to him and said to Su Xiaomu: "Come back so early today?" I thought you'd spend more time in the palace. ”
"Looks like you know, but there's nothing to do, and I can't help there, so I can't tell if I'm going to cause trouble for others."
After Su Xiaomu sat down, he sighed again and again: "It's really hard to say, I didn't expect things to develop like this, I originally thought that Mrs. Hou and the princess would not get along, and I didn't need to adjust the relationship between the two of them in the future, but I didn't expect the assassin to come so coincidentally, if it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Hou paid too much price, I would have to wonder if it was designed by herself." ”
Bitter meat tricks are always the best to use, and in the face of life and death crises, nothing irritates people's eyes more than blood.
Lu Nianyou is no longer the daughter of the boudoir, and she must know these things herself.
"It's not her calculation, although the killer was corrected on the spot, but there is a saying that the person sent from the Western Regions wanted to assassinate Princess Langya because King Langya was deeply loved by His Majesty, and the Western Regions wanted to use this to make His Majesty hurt, and it was also to weaken the power of my Dachen royal family."
Gu Jingcheng shook his head to deny Su Xiaomu's speculation: "Mrs. Hou is a little miserable, but she is not a loss today, she always gets some of what she wants." ”
"I can only comfort myself like this, but I have one more thing to tell you, didn't lychees sell very well a few days ago? I opened the way to the first batch of lychees from Jiangnan, because there was ice on the way to help keep them fresh, and I built an ice room after sending them over, the loss of lychees is not very large, you say that if I freeze all the lychees, and then take them out and sell them in September and October, and then make some desserts, this business may work? ”
Xiao Yiyi and Lu Nianyou's incident is very sad to think about, and Su Xiaomu doesn't really want to continue to recall today's tragic situation.
I opened my mouth and changed the subject.
Speaking of this lychee, it was also good luck at that time to meet a caravan from Jiangnan, Su Xiaomu did business with their leader, although the price of the first trip was more, but they were able to ensure that the loss of lychees would be reduced to a minimum with the help of ice.
Of course, in order to keep the secret of his ice-making, Su Xiaomu specially wrote to Huifu City and sent Shi Lan to Jiangnan.
The caravan came too fast, and Su Xiaomu's henchmen had not yet been cultivated, but he was reluctant to miss this opportunity, so in desperation, he could only trouble Shi Lan to suffer this.
Natural lychee, Gu Jingcheng also knows the story behind this.
As soon as the concubine smiled on the red dust, they all came to the south of the Yangtze River to come to lychee.
Now up and down the capital, no one knows who doesn't know, His Majesty spent a lot of money to send lychees from Jiangnan for the sake of the newly acquired concubine.
In just over a month, the lychee has been sold for a hundred taels of silver a catty, so that ordinary people don't dare to look at it.
Gu Jingcheng has only heard of the name of lychee, but he has not had the opportunity to eat it, but now it seems that the business opportunities in this must be unimaginable, otherwise Su Xiaomo would not have spent so much effort, and he must earn this money from Jiangnan Yun lychee.
So Gu Jingcheng said: "It's feasible, but now the lychee sells well, and it won't necessarily be at this price after half a year, maybe you can take out some of it first to collect some funds, and then store the rest temporarily, and wait until half a year later to do business." ”
"That's what I thought, I just brought some back this time for you to taste?"
Su Xiaomu had already counted it in her heart, she got up and went to the kitchen to take out the lychees, and gave a few to Gu Ruonan, who was reading next to her, so that she could go back to the room to rest for a while, and then take the rest to Gu Jingcheng.
"You taste? I think the taste is still very sweet. ”
"It's just that I've never eaten it, whether I swallow this thing directly in one bite, or do I have to take this ...... outside"
Gu Jingcheng picked up a lychee and looked at it carefully in his hand, he stared at the red raised shell on it seriously, and didn't know how to start for a long time.
Seeing him like this, Su Xiaomu smiled and helped.
