Chapter 692 Compensation

"Too...the Queen Mother?"

Several people looked at each other.

Gu Xiang only looked at Gu Laoshi's robe, sighed, and did not give much explanation.

Gu Laoshi's mouth sagged and he immediately wanted to cry. Jiang grabbed his ears and walked out with big strides.

Mrs. Cui was obviously at a loss.

Obviously, she rarely has such a thing as not knowing what to say or do, but she hasn't said a word for a moment.

The wind blows the bamboo forest and the leaves sing softly.

Gu Xiang said helplessly: "It's not that I'm talking nonsense. Madam Cui may not know it. I'm afraid everyone in the village knows it. Although our Gu family is just an ordinary villager in Guzhuang, I have the honor to have a good time with Anguo Bus that day. The robe on my father was given by Anguo Duke and the Queen Mother."

Madam Cui: "..."

"This matter is quite big, but Miss Cui did not mean it. Those who don't know it will not blame him. The Empress Dowager has always been kind and will not pursue it. But we are not careful not to worry about it, so we seem to be not respectful to the Empress Dowager."

Gu Xiang thought for a while, "The Empress Dowager often said that we should be pragmatic in our lives, but we are not allowed to be simplified. Why not just ask Mrs. Cui to do something real to compensate? How about washing and shattered clothes and slurry from all the people in our village, and making them look fresh? I think if the Empress Dowager knew that she was thousands of miles away, because such a story happened to the robe she gave, she would be happy."

Even the title of the empress dowager was so simple that Gu Xiang's mouth was twitching, and Madam Cui's mouth twitched, but she didn't dare to say anything to refuse.

Gu Xiang's expression was still casual. After saying that, he smiled at Gu Laoshi and Jiang and said, "Dad, please come back quickly. I just opened a jar of fruit wine. From now on, my dad will take our own wine to find a drinker. It will be more mellow and drink some good or harmless."

"He still drinks, let's drink the northwest wind."

Jiang sneered.

Mrs. Cui looked at Gu Xiang's back for a long time, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Only the identity she is now using, she has lived in Shouling County for many years, so it should be that there should be no flaws.

After a moment of silence, when she thought that she might have to clean up the ragged clothes in this village and sewed them, Madam Cui felt her brain thrust and hurt. Even if she remembered her master, it would be difficult to calm down.

Alas, this mission is really annoying every time, when will it end?

Mrs. Zhang... Can there really be such a fairyland on earth described by Gao Ruyu? If she had done so many bad things, she would not have a good end in such a fairyland. However, if her son, her mother, sister, and those most important people in her life could enjoy such a fairyland, she would be satisfied. As for her own failure, she would have been rotten in the mud, so how could she be considered alive?

It is indeed as Gu Xiang thought, this Miss Cui is indeed not an ordinary person.

As soon as she showed up, Lao Gou and the others followed the clues to check the two women and the people around them clearly.

I couldn't find any clues about the imperial envoy named Hua.

It’s true that Mrs. Cui’s whereabouts are a bit complicated. Although she said she was helping her son do some miscellaneous work, she actually had to deal with many people, from major families in Shouling County to peddlers and pawns, and also showed up to interact with cloth merchants from all over the country.

The old dog was simply amazed: "It's even wider than me."

This lady is a bit powerful.

Her shop is quite famous in Shouling, not like what she said, but the shop is very small. Although it is not large in scale, it is in a prosperous business. It is not bad for neighbors to buy some ordinary needles and threads on weekdays. Some of them take the path of small profits but quick turnover, while the other takes the path of medium and high-end.

Everyone says that the Yiran Pavilion of the Xiang family always produces some fresh clothes. The whole life is basically the fresh clothes of her family, which can be compared with the prosperous areas such as Jiangnan and Beijing.

The major families of Shouling County, Wang Magistrate and Zhou County Wei didn't know about it. If you go back to ask the female family at home, you probably have heard of the name of "Yiran Pavilion".

Of course, a place like Shouling cannot be done with a truly high-end business.

Even local grain merchants, the most serious salt merchants who took salt intake, sold poor grains such as old grains and broken grains.

As for salt, I sell coarse salt all year round.

Mrs. Cui and her son run shops every day, with many visitors and many people coming into contact with each other. Not to mention Shouling County, the surrounding county towns, and even the capital city, there are often people coming and going. Lao Gou was stunned when facing this situation: "If you have to keep an eye on it for ten days and half a month, you may be able to achieve something, but for a moment, you can't find the whereabouts of the imperial envoy."

This is too slow.

Hua Mantao has been missing for nearly a month. Now I don’t know whether he is dead or alive. If he delays any more, he will have less hope of survival.

Eunuch Liu was dead, and Zhang Ming, "Kaicheng Bo", was still locked in a cave and waiting for his follow-up. However, the imperial envoy was alive and could not see anyone but the corpse.

The old dog couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Gu Xiang was not unworried, but this matter was progressing smoothly, but he left his fate to the destiny. If the flowers and Tao people arrived at the mirror of evil, just waiting for reincarnation, it would be useless to do anything else.

After the meal, it was quieter. Only the idle old people in the village gathered in the garden to play chess, tea and chat.

When the Gu family built a house, Xueying took a lot of time to choose a location. Because it was not only a restaurant, but also a living room, it was quite laborious in terms of comfort. Those elderly people who had only had to spend their days were bored at home, so they naturally loved to join in the fun.

Gu Xiang took peach wine.

Gu Laoshi's taste is as simple as ever. He likes it as long as it is big meat and oil. He is very helpful. Gu Xiang gave Gu Laoshi a sauce elbow that he stewed into the mouth, and then made a fried soybean for her mother, and then served as a dish.

The family of three sat around a table, drinking and eating vegetables. Gu Xiang silently organized the words and said that he had walked over and pinched Jiang's shoulders before: "I haven't pinched my mother for a long time."

Jiang was coaxed and lost half of his thoughts for a while: "You girl, you always show your kindness when you have something to do. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Gu Xiang: "Dad, mom, I became a princess."

Jiang: “…”

Gu Laoshi hurriedly said, "Okay, my third lady is the little princess."

However, Jiang gradually showed a little solemnity on her face. She was different from Gu Laoshi, who had a bad brain. She only listened to Gu Xiang's words and knew that she was saying this was not a joke.

After a while of silence, Jiang lowered his head, pursed the corners of his eyes with a veil, and then looked up, but a bright smile appeared on his face.
