Gu Xiyan suppressed the chaotic emotions in her heart, "I've heard of it." ”

She didn't dare to look at Zhou Dui, for fear that Zhou Dui would see that she was weak-hearted.

"This person disrupts the price of the charcoal market and alarms the government and the opposition, but he is bold and ambitious."

Every time Zhou Duan said a word, Gu Xiyan's heartbeat sped up by a point.

She really didn't know it would be like this. Inadvertently, she remembered that there was such a thing in her previous life, it was Soho who spread rumors, this year was a cold winter, and it happened to happen in August of the eleventh year of Chengde.

She remembered this and struck ahead of Soho. She thought that she might make money, and planned to take this opportunity to try her skills and let Soho go home empty-handed, not wanting to cause such a big sensation and alarm the imperial court.

Obviously, there was not such a big battle in his previous life, and Soho didn't make that much. Whether it was because Su Mei bought too much silver frost charcoal, or because she temporarily added a condition of "not selling more than 100 catties", which caused the price to skyrocket, it is unknown.

"Maybe the man was just right?" Gu Xiyan answered weakly.

Zhou Du lightly hooked the corners of his lips when he heard this: "If you can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver in just ten days, then this person's financial luck is too good, does the girl think it is possible?" ”

Gu Xiyan was silent, this question was too dangerous, she didn't dare to answer randomly.

She couldn't sit still, and she was still thinking about making an appointment to meet Su Mei.

Zhou Du and Hubu intervened in this matter, Mo said that she was panicking, and Su Mei must also be panicking. Although she thinks that she is a leak and has not committed a crime, she is always weak in the face of Zhou Dui.

At this time, she also wanted to understand why Zhou Du came to Jixianglou for dinner, it was nothing more than that there was a dense flow of people here, and the powerful liked to come to Jixianglou to eat and drink spicy food.

And this time they mainly sold silver frost charcoal, and most of the customers were powerful families, so Zhou Du picked it in Jixiang Building, and there was no need for him to specifically inquire about the news, and some people spit out the news they knew like pouring beans.

She had a hard time eating this meal.

"Is the girl so little to eat?" Zhou Du observed Gu Xiyan for a while, and found that she ate like eating cat food, which was pitiful, no wonder she was so thin.

Gu Xiyan really had no appetite, so he casually made an excuse: "I ate too much breakfast, and I'm not hungry yet." Childe, I'm full. ”

Zhou Du glanced at her lightly, "Eat more." ”

Under Zhou Dui's gaze, Gu Xiyan ate some more.

She put down the dishes and chopsticks and said, "I've been out for too long, Childe, I want to go back." ”

"Zhiyuan, you go and send Miss Gu." Zhou Du didn't keep it anymore.

Gu Xiyan breathed a sigh of relief, put on his hat, and left the private room.

Qi Zhiyuan sent Gu Xiyan downstairs, saw her get into the carriage, and then returned to Zhou Du to resume her life.

Zhou Du was watching the carriage that Gu Xiyan was riding in downstairs start. She said she wanted to go back, why did she go in the opposite direction to Wanqinghou Mansion?

When I talked to Gu Xiyan before, I always felt that she seemed to have something on her mind, and it was not good for him to ask too much.

Seeing Gu Xiyan's carriage go away, Zhou Du pondered whether to arrange Gu Xiyan's appearance as soon as possible.

Half an hour later, in the northern suburbs of the capital, Gu Xiyan saw Su Mei.

As soon as Su Mei saw her, he pulled her to the small hill.

It was autumn, when everything was depressed, and the weeds on the hillside were wilting and lifeless.

Only a few scattered wildflowers, struggling to bloom their buds.

Su Mei and Gu Xiyan picked a position with a good angle and sat down, and the two were silent for a long time.

Then they looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

In the end, Su Mei smiled on Gu Xiyan's shoulder, and the laughter gradually stopped, and she asked with a straight face: "Did you release the news that this year is a cold winter?" ”

Gu Xiyan shook his head: "It's not me, it's Soho." I learned about Soho's plan by chance, so I got ahead of her. ”

In fact, although Soho also implemented this plan in the previous life, it did not make much waves.

It's a pity that this time it alarmed the household department, and the one who is really investigating this matter is a son surnamed Zhou Mingdu. Just now I met Zhou Gongzi in Jixiang Building, speaking of which, I have some friendship with him, if I let him know that I am calculating behind it......" Gu Xiyan's voice faded away.

"We haven't done anything hurtful, what are we afraid of? Besides, it's all me who is out there, and no one knows that you're behind me. Besides, we didn't force us to buy and sell, so you can't be afraid of that Zhou Gongzi. Su Mei patted Gu Xiyan's shoulder.

"I'm either afraid, I just don't want him to know that I did this, I don't want to be hated by him." Gu Xiyan said.

Su Mei looked sideways when he heard this: "Xiyan, do you like that Zhou Gongzi?" ”

Gu Xiyan glared at her angrily: "It's not what you think." I have a relationship with Zhou Gongzi, and I regard him as a benefactor, confidant, and friend. By the way, Zhou Gongzi still wants to be a matchmaker with me. ”

Su Mei listened carefully, and said after a while: "Then I know, whether you have Zhou Gongzi in your heart or not, Zhou Gongzi definitely doesn't have you in your heart." ”

"Originally, he only had his family and country in his heart, how could he pretend to be a woman?" After a pause, Gu Xiyan added: "Now, his political career is about to begin, and soon he will be on duty in the household department, right?" ”

Su Mei felt that Gu Xiyan's tone was so different when she mentioned Zhou Dui, but she said that she was not a man and a woman for Zhou Dui.

That Zhou Twilight was also strange, in the face of such a good-looking Xiyan, he was not moved, but found a man for Xiyan.
