"We have a table of dishes today and we need you to cook them. Let's not have a menu of three dishes a month. How about I advance you the menu for the next six months?" Manager Feng said anxiously.

"That's not impossible."

Seeing that she had agreed, Shopkeeper Feng said to the other cooks, "Today, you will obey Madam Mu's orders."

Everyone knew the importance of distinguished guests in a restaurant, so naturally no one objected.

Bei Yutang entered the kitchen and began to cook, with the other chefs helping her. During this time, Bei Yutang asked them questions indirectly, but the information she got was very limited.

I was busy all day and didn't stop until the lights came on.

Bei Yutang was in no hurry to leave. Manager Feng had just finished his work and came over to thank her.

"Shopkeeper Feng, who is this?" Bei Yutang asked with her fat, pockmarked face.

Perhaps because Bei Yutang's face was too harmless, and coupled with her help today, Shopkeeper Feng quietly revealed some information, "It's the Gu family from Southern Tang."

"Gu family? Are they very famous? They are from the Southern Tang Kingdom. How come they can make such a big show when they come to our Great Zhou?" Bei Yutang asked curiously.

Shopkeeper Feng was a little surprised to see that she didn't even know about the Gu family, but then he thought it was normal. After all, she was a peasant woman living in a remote area, so it was natural that she didn't know much about the Gu family.

He didn't know about it at first, but only after hearing his boss talk about it did he realize how powerful the Gu family was.

"You don't know this. The current head of the Gu family is a good friend of the eldest prince of our Great Zhou. The Gu family has many businesses in our Great Zhou. There are Gu family stores in every county and prefecture in the Great Zhou."

"Our Fengyang County is too small, so naturally there aren't any. It's normal that you don't know about them. Speaking of the Gu family, ten years ago they were an unknown, impoverished aristocratic family. But ever since a talented young woman emerged from the Gu family, who is now the head of the family, the Gu family's business has flourished. I heard that no one, whether from the imperial court or the underworld, dares to offend the Gu family."

"This Miss Gu is a legendary figure. She and our Crown Prince are said to be very close, and there are even rumors that the future Crown Prince's consort will be none other than Gu Pianran. However, I heard that the Prince of Jin in Southern Tang is also deeply in love with Miss Gu."

Bei Yutang poured wine for Manager Feng. After he drank glass after glass, he started talking more.

Hearing the familiar names from his mouth, her heart ached and she wanted to grind those people to dust, but she was still too weak now and could only endure it.

"Is Miss Gu engaged now?" Bei Yutang asked.

She really wanted to know who Gu Pianran had chosen as her husband among so many men. Was it Gu Fanzhi, the fourth prince of the Southern Tang Kingdom, Xue Qian, the heir of the Divine Doctor Valley, Qin Yuxuan, the leader of the martial arts world, Youming, the leader of the evil cult, or An Ye, the number one assassin in the martial arts world?

"They haven't been engaged yet." Shopkeeper Feng's mouth was a little knotted. "The eldest daughter of the Gu family wants to marry Prince Jin. But because his princess passed away just a year ago, she's afraid of being criticized, so she's been putting it off."

"What did you say?!" Bei Yutang stood up from her seat in shock, staring at Manager Feng with her eyes fixed.

Shopkeeper Feng was a little drunk, frowning and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"How long did you say the Princess of Jin of Southern Tang had been gone?" Bei Yutang's hands were shaking. She was afraid that she had heard it, and she was even more afraid that he had remembered the time wrong.

Shopkeeper Feng stuck out his tongue and said, "One, one year."
