The fake young lady, who was mistakenly swapped at birth into the Changping Marquisate, insisted on leaving the Marquisate to return home and become a village girl. The entire capital waited to see...
Only by relying on the people can this store survive. She can't keep doing business at a loss.
"No, some people are always on edge. They might just be small matters. They just want me to take a look. Don't worry."
Sheng Mingyu had no choice but to agree to Gu Yunni's request. After all, they had already made a pact. "Okay, but you have to remember that when it's time to eat, you must go back to eat. No matter how busy you are, you must not forget. Otherwise, I will not let you enter this shop. It's for your own good."
Gu Yunni nodded and sat obediently in the shop, dealing with things for the whole morning.
"Uncle, this isn't a big deal. Just take the talisman and go back to sleep. Remember to put it under your pillow every day."
"Auntie! Stop letting your daughter-in-law drink those things made of plant ash. It's bad for her health and will drive her crazy. Put down your greed and you will get what you deserve."
"Auntie..."
Originally, Gu Yunni thought there was something where she could shine, but after dealing with these things, she felt a headache.
Why do you have to solve all the trivial family matters by yourself?
It doesn't even have anything to do with the mystical arts, but they still insist on asking me to solve it. It's really frustrating.
"Yun Ni, that's enough. Who have you been looking at all morning? Are there any useful people? Come over and have dinner first. The kitchen in the mansion has already prepared the food. After dinner, you can look at whatever you want."
Sheng Mingyu stayed with Gu Yunni all morning.
He felt helpless as he looked at those old men and women, and also watched Gu Yunni's smile fade away.
If there is a chance, I should popularize to ordinary people what the mysterious arts are used for.
They can exorcise ghosts, but they cannot solve the problem of whether their daughter-in-law can get pregnant or not.
"Ah, there must be something serious going on. This morning isn't all about little things, there are some serious things too."
Although Gu Yunni was annoyed, she was unwilling to put all the pressure on Sheng Mingyu, so she said a few nice words.
In fact, what she said was not wrong. There were indeed serious matters, but they were very small matters and could basically be solved with a talisman.
Sheng Mingyu felt sorry for her, but he had no way to help her, so he could only comfort her, "Let's wait and see in the afternoon. If it keeps going like this, I'll have someone watch over you in the store so you don't have to waste time here every day."
Anyway, he has a lot of subordinates and many people available, who can help her a lot.
Gu Yunni had just taken her first bite of food when a scream came from outside, attracting the attention of the entire street.
"Princess, please save me! There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"
The man kept calling Gu Yunni.
Gu Yunni was frightened. She put the bowl on the table and ran out.
Sheng Mingyu followed behind him, frowning tightly.
Don’t you see what time it is now? Why are you not letting people eat?
As soon as Gu Yunni went out, she saw an old man rushing towards the store like a madman.
He was talking incoherently and no one else could understand him.
The pedestrians around avoided it and didn't dare to get close.
Looking at this old man is like looking at a madman.
As soon as Gu Yunni saw him, her face darkened and she threw out a talisman, "Immobilize!"
The old man was pinned to the street and didn't move.
"Princess, please take a quick look at this person. What's going on? Has he been possessed by a ghost?"
"Yeah! Why are you yelling all the time?"
"I just saw a carriage coming and it almost hit him. It was lucky that he didn't get killed."
…
Seeing that the old man was completely immobilized, the people around him breathed a sigh of relief and asked their own questions.
Looking at Gu Yunni, it was like seeing a savior. They were not very panicked. They believed that as long as Gu Yunni was there, there would be no accidents.
"Everyone, don't panic. Go do your own thing. This old man was just possessed by a little ghost. I've dealt with it now. I'll take him back to the store first and won't delay you any longer."
Gu Yunni politely comforted the people, and did not forget to wink at Sheng Mingyu, and brought the people back to the shop.
What she just said was completely fabricated. The old man was not possessed by a ghost, but was simply scared into this state.
She was very surprised, wondering what on earth this old man had seen that frightened him so much that his whole soul was trembling.
"What is this?" Sheng Mingyu was also very curious and wanted to know what had happened to this old man.
He didn't know much about this aspect, so naturally he didn't know what this old man was involved in.
Gu Yunni's face was very serious. She felt that this matter should not be ordinary, and she also specifically reminded Sheng Mingyu.
"It's okay. Eat your meal first. Don't be surprised by anything you hear later. Don't scare the people outside."
There were still many people outside looking in, and they couldn't behave too abnormally, otherwise once the news got out, who knows what would happen next.
"Okay." Sheng Mingyu was quite brave. Even if he was not told, he would not do anything outrageous.
"uncle?"
Gu Yunni helped the old man sit down on the chair and spoke in a gentle tone, fearing that her voice would be too loud and scare people.
The old man is very fragile now. If I do anything wrong, I'm afraid he will get emotional.
Gu Yunni said many soothing words, and finally asked, "Tell me what happened? I can help you solve it. Don't worry, this is my shop, it's very safe. I promise you won't be attacked by any evil spirits again."
The old man's eyes were a little scattered, and the moment he saw Gu Yunni, the light in his eyes was barely gathered.
Seeing Gu Yunni's face, he was completely relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Crown Princess? I'm finally here with you. I'm saved. Crown Princess, I beg you, please save me. I haven't done anything wrong. I'm innocent. I'm a good person. Can you please stop pestering me?"
At this point, the old man collapsed and knelt in front of Gu Yunni, holding her legs tightly and muttering to himself, "I haven't done anything wrong, why are they holding me?"
In his eyes, the outside world is dangerous and he is only safe in front of Gu Yunni.
Even if she said an insignificant word, he felt it would be the words that saved his life.
Seeing that the old man finally spoke normal words, Gu Yunni breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as we can communicate, it's fine. If we can't communicate, no matter how capable we are, we won't be able to know the cause and effect of things.
