On the day the scumbag got married, I lay flat and became his sister-in-law

Chapter 19
Gu Xiyan suppressed the chaotic emotions in her heart, "I heard something."

She didn't dare to look at Zhou Mu, for fear that Zhou Mu would find out that she was guilty.

"This person disrupts the price of the coal market and alarms the government and the public. He is bold and ambitious."

Every time Zhou Mu said a word, Gu Xiyan's heart beat faster.

She really didn't know it would turn out like this.Inadvertently, she remembered that such a thing happened in her previous life. It was Su Ho who spread the rumors.

Remembering this, she rushed to strike ahead of Su Ho.She had thought that she might make money, and planned to take this opportunity to try her hand and let Su Ho return empty-handed. She didn't want to cause such a big commotion and alarmed the court.

Obviously there wasn't such a big battle in the previous life, and Su Ho didn't earn that much either.It is not known whether Su Mei bought too much silver frost charcoal, or because she temporarily added a condition of "not selling more than a hundred catties" that caused the price to skyrocket.

"Maybe that person just hit the right one?" Gu Xiyan answered weakly.

Zhou Mu curled his lips lightly when he heard the words: "If you can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver in just ten days, then this person's fortune is really good. Miss, do you think it's possible?"

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

She was restless and still thinking about meeting Su Mei.

Zhou Mu and the household department intervened in this matter, don't say she panicked, Su Mei must have panicked too.Although she thought she was picking on the omissions and did not commit a crime, she always felt guilty facing Zhou Mu.

At this time, she also wanted to understand why Zhou Mu came to Jixianglou for dinner. It was nothing more than the fact that there were a lot of people here, and the rich and powerful liked to come to Jixianglou for delicious food and spicy food.

But this time they mainly sell silver frost charcoal, and most of the customers are rich and powerful families, so Zhou Mu chose Jixianglou, and he didn't need to inquire about the news, some people would spit out the news they knew like beans.

She had a hard time eating this meal.

"Do girls eat so little?" Zhou Mu observed Gu Xiyan for a while, and found that she was eating like cat food, pitifully small, no wonder she was so thin.

Gu Xiyan really had no appetite, so she made up an excuse: "I ate too much breakfast, and I'm not hungry yet. Young master, I'm full."

Zhou Mu glanced at her indifferently, "Eat more."

Under Zhou Mu's gaze, Gu Xiyan bit the bullet and ate some more.

She put down the bowl and chopsticks and said: "I've been out for too long, young master, I want to go back."

"Zhiyuan, you go see Miss Gu off." Zhou Mu didn't want to keep her anymore.

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

Qi Zhiyuan sent Gu Xiyan downstairs, saw her getting into the carriage, and returned to Zhou Mu to report.

Zhou Mu was watching the carriage that Gu Xiyan was riding downstairs starting.She said she wanted to go back, why did she go in the opposite direction to Wanqinghou's mansion?

When I talked to Gu Xiyan before, I always felt that she seemed to have something on her mind, but he didn't want to ask more.

Watching Gu Xiyan's carriage go away, Zhou Mu pondered whether to arrange Gu Xiyan's meeting 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, she dragged her to the hillside.

It was autumn, the season when everything was sluggish, and the weeds on the hillside were limp and lifeless.

Only a few wildflowers are scattered and hard to bloom.

Su Mei and Gu Xiyan chose a seat with a good view and sat down, they didn't speak for a long time.

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

In the end, Su Mei laughed and fell on Gu Xiyan's shoulder, the laughter gradually died down, and she asked seriously: "Did you release the news that this year is a severe winter?"

Gu Xiyan shook her head: "It's not me, it's Su Ho. I learned of Su Ho's plan by chance, so I rushed ahead of her."

In fact, although Su Ho also implemented this plan in his previous life, it didn't cause much trouble.

"It's a pity that this time the Ministry of Household Affairs was alarmed, and the person who is actually investigating this matter is a young master surnamed Zhou. I just ran into Mr. Zhou in Jixiang Tower. Speaking of which, I have some friendship with him. If he knows what is behind it I'm scheming..." Gu Xiyan's voice faded away.

"We didn't do anything outrageous, so what are we afraid of? Besides, I'm the one who's out there, and no one knows that you're behind me. Besides, we didn't buy or sell by force, so you don't have to be afraid of that Mr. Zhou." Su Mei patted Gu Xiyan's shoulder lightly.

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

Su Mei looked sideways at the words: "Xiyan, do you like that Mr. Zhou?"

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

Su Mei listened carefully, and after a while she said: "Then I know, whether you have Mr. Zhou in your heart or not, Mr. Zhou definitely does not have you in his heart."

"Originally, he only has family and country in his heart, so how can he pretend to be a woman?" After a pause, Gu Xiyan added: "Now, his political career is about to start, and soon he will enter the household Is it on duty?"

Su Mei felt that Gu Xiyan's tone of voice was so different when she mentioned Zhou Mu, but she also said that she was not in love with Zhou Mu.

That Zhou Mu was also strange, facing such a good-looking Xi Yan, he was not tempted, and instead found a man for Xi Yan.
