"It's the restaurant that my mother left for me, I used to be young, so I could only hand over Jixiang Building to Wu's shopkeeper to take care of." Gu Xiyan was concise and to the point.

"Whose idea is the new dishes that Jixianglou comes out of every month?" Su Mei was very curious.

"When I have nothing to do in the house, I will study some dishes, and if I think it is good, I will tell the shopkeeper Wu." Gu Xiyan poured a cup of tea for Su Mei: "Ah Mei, I came to you today, I want to cooperate with you." ”

Su Mei was also immersed in the fact that the behind-the-scenes shopkeeper of Jixiang Building was Gu Xiyan. She never thought that the owner of Jixiang Building, who was famous in the capital, was actually an unknown Gu girl in Wanqinghou Mansion.

It took a while for her to come back and ask, "What kind of cooperation?" ”

"The Hou Mansion has a large population, and the Hou Ye is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and I am fostered under the name of the Hou Ye, so there are many things that are inconvenient to come forward. You are different, the Su family is a business family, you have been exposed to it since you were a child, there are many things that I can't do, you can do it......"

Hearing this, Su Mei smiled bitterly: "Xiyan, you think too highly of me, I don't have the ability you said." ”

Just say Soho, she can't compare.

Although she dislikes Soho very much, and thinks Soho is both hypocritical and vicious, it is undeniable that Soho is a woman with brains.

"You don't think you're as good as Soho?" Gu Xiyan saw through the confusion in Su Mei's heart at a glance.

"What am I like her? My father used to think highly of me, but now he always takes Soho with him. Half a month ago, my father told me that if Soho is a man, the Su family will definitely be able to carry forward. To be able to get such a compliment from my father shows Soho's ability. Su Mei lowered his eyebrows.

Gu Xiyan remembered the expansion of Soho's business territory in her previous life, she did not deny that Soho was powerful, and she even had the mind to win over Soho.

But in the end, she followed her heart and chose Su Mei.

"You don't have to be presumptuous. Soho is good, and you're not bad either. Besides, if you weren't a threat to Soho, would she have drugged you and wanted to ruin your innocence in that way? ”

Su Mei was facing Gu Xiyan's firm and warm gaze.

"You don't have to deny yourself entirely. Even if you and I are not as good as Soho, should we admit defeat and ask you willingly? "Gu Xiyan knows Su Mei's love and hate too well.

Because of everything she has experienced, Su Mei has also experienced.

Their biological mothers were all squeezed down by their aunts, and their biological mothers died young. Su Mei at least has Su Jing's father's love, since her mother passed away, she has become nothing.

"I'm unwilling!" Su Mei lasted for a long time before he spit out these three words firmly.

Gu Xiyan deliberately diverted the previous heavy topic and quipped: "That's right." I came to you today to discuss with you to build a business kingdom with all-round clothing, food, housing and transportation......"

Su Mei was drinking tea, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but squirt out a sip of tea: "Wouldn't this be too ambitious?" ”

It is also a full range of clothing, food, housing and transportation, and it would be good to be able to do a good job in one of the industries.

Gu Xiyan is afraid that she has forgotten, they are just women, and women have constraints in doing anything, it is easy to say, but it is difficult to implement.

"It's not illegal to think about it, is it? I'm just joking, don't you rush ......."

Su Mei breathed a sigh of relief, she was really shocked by Gu Xiyan's words.

"Food, clothing, housing and transportation, I think 'food' comes first. Among them, firewood, rice, oil and salt are necessities, and rice and salt are the top priorities. If we can become the largest grain merchant in the country, we can make a big impact on food......"

Gu Xiyan talked endlessly, Su Mei listened carefully, and was also a little in a trance.

When I saw Gu Xiyan at the birthday banquet the day before yesterday, I only said that she was very quiet and said very little, but today Gu Xiyan looked radiant, like two completely different people.

"If nothing else, there will be a food famine in the next three years, when the price of rice will continue to rise. If the price of rice rises, it will affect the fortunes of the Great Jin Dynasty. If we can become a grain merchant with the right to speak, we may be able to stop this food crisis......" Gu Xiyan's voice faded away.

The saddest thing is that the initiator of the food famine is Zhou Xing, who deliberately created this food crisis because of his own selfishness.

The two talked while eating and exchanged a lot of opinions. In the end, Su Mei also thought that Gu Xiyan could make suggestions behind her back, and she would do what she would do to show her face.

But they are women, and there are many things that are not suitable for showing up, so they still have to recruit errand boys.

Seeing the rapid passage of time, the discussion between the two came to an end for the time being.

Before Gu Xiyan left, he thought of Xu Yongqian's character: "Do you have any intersection with the prince of Qi An?" ”

Su Mei was stunned, and a suspicious flush appeared on his face.

Gu Xiyan secretly screamed when he saw this, looking at Su Mei's expression, Xu Yongqian and Su Mei may have had a relationship for a long time.

"I've seen it a few times, why did you suddenly mention Xu Shizi?" Su Mei was facing Gu Xiyan's eyes as if he had seen through everything, and his heart sank slightly.

"Then do you know that Xu Shizi and Soho have already secretly communicated with each other? Ah Mei, if you like Xu Shizi, I advise you to stop, Xu Shizi is happy with Soho, he is not your lover. ”

As soon as Gu Xiyan finished speaking, he saw Su Mei's face turn pale.

"But, but Soho's innocence has been ruined by His Royal Highness the King of Qin, and there is no possibility between them." Su Mei endured the discomfort in her heart, but she still had a glimmer of hope.

Gu Xiyan sighed lightly, and asked after a while: "So you still want to like a man who hides another woman in his heart?" Even if you marry Xu Shizi one day, but he can't let go of Soho, when he talks to you, he thinks about Soho, and when he sleeps with you, he still thinks about Soho, and one day you give birth to a child, he thinks in his heart how good it would be if this was Soho's child......"

"Don't talk about it!" Su Mei's eyes turned red.

Gu Xiyan's apricot eyes were as gentle as water: "Look, I just said that you can't stand it, if you really live such a day one day, you will die." ”

In her previous life, Su Mei did end up depressed, just for a man who was not worthy.

Su Mei didn't want to continue this topic, but Gu Xiyan still continued cruelly: "As far as I know, Xu Shizi has a deep affection for Soho, and such a man is not worthy of your affection. If I were you, I would stop the loss in time. ”

"To put it mildly, I've liked him for three years, and you're telling me how to wipe him out of my heart? He is obviously gentle with me, and when he looks at me, he is obviously affectionate......"

"Do you think he went to Su Mansion to see you? No, the person he really wants to see is Soho. It's just that Soho is good at controlling people's hearts, and he wants to welcome and reject this trick, which makes him perfect, so that Xu Shizi is fascinated. Xu Shizi obviously likes Soho in his heart, but he gives you hope, what do you think he thinks? In my opinion, he is trying to use you to get Soho's attention. Gu Xiyan's words broke through the mystery.

In her previous life, she thought that Su Mei was in love with Xu Yongqian at first sight, but it turned out that she was also wrong.

Su Mei's face was as pale as paper, and she looked at Gu Xiyan in disbelief.

"I still say the same thing, Xu Yongqian is definitely not your lover. We women should not be trapped in the love between men and women, you should come out, in the future, your horizons will be broadened, and the love between men and women can be seen more openly. Gu Xiyan persuaded bitterly: "Look at me, wasn't I also divorced by His Royal Highness King Qin?" His Royal Highness the King of Qin withdrew from my family affairs, and three days later proposed to Liu Chaoyan. Do you know what His Royal Highness King Qin said to me on the day of my grandmother's birthday banquet? He told me in a tone of pity that he could take me as a side concubine. ”

"Ridiculous!!" Su Mei was extremely angry when he heard this.

"I also think it's ridiculous. But what can I do, he is the King of Qin, the beloved son of His Majesty today, with the ability and skill, and the powerful, how can I, an orphan girl, compete with a figure like His Royal Highness the King of Qin? Then am I just sitting and waiting for him to come and spoil me? ”

"Of course you can't sit still!" Su Mei was indignant and had long forgotten about his stubble.

Gu Xiyan smiled when he heard this, "So I want to find a way out on my own, even if I hit a stone with an egg and hit my head and broke the bloodstream, I have to give it a try." What about you, are you willing to be the shadow of Soho and the choice of Xu Shizi to retreat? ”

Su Mei was silent for a long time before shaking his head: "I don't want to." ”

"Ah Mei, let's work hard, it doesn't matter if we fail. If there is no place for us in this place, we will not be able to leave this city. ”

Su Mei didn't hesitate this time, and nodded vigorously: "I'll listen to you." ”

It's just that she knows that it is not so easy to really let go of Xu Yongqian.

Gu Xiyan stepped forward and hugged Su Mei.

This is the first friend she has made in her two lives, and they can trust each other and support each other to go on.

Two quarters of an hour after Su Mei left, Gu Xiyan got up and left.

When she walked out of Jixiang Building, it was drizzling, there were few pedestrians on the street, and the shops were almost closed, which was the opposite of the bustle when she came.

The slanting wind mixed with the drizzle is blowing in the face, as if bringing an autumn chill.

Qiu Shi held an oil-paper umbrella and accompanied Gu Xiyan in the foggy autumn rain.

The sky and the earth were gray, and only Gu Xiyan's master and servant were bright in color, which became the most eye-catching scene in the rain.

Zhou Du was riding in a carriage and had just returned from the Fallen Immortal Temple.

He was reading a book, when the autumn breeze rose, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and with a quick glance, he saw a girl walking in the rain.

Even if he didn't see her face, he recognized it as Gu Xiyan at a glance.

Speechless, I actually forgot the chapter in the early morning, and my memory is getting worse and worse.

Everyone votes after reading it, leave some footprints, and run away after reading the table.
