Chapter 310 How did they appear in my store?
It's a ghost!
How did they end up in their own store?
Gu Xiaoxi told herself to stay calm, then got off the carriage and, together with Shaoyao, led the horses into the farm through the side door.
Scarface and his friends were a little tired from traveling, and they ate their food in a daze, and did not see Gu Xiaoxi.
After Gu Xiaoxi drove the carriage inside, he asked Xia Yu, "Who are those people in the store?"
"I don't know, they just sat down." Xia Yu shook his head.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't dare to say too much, lest it easily reveal any flaws, and told Xia Yu: "Go out and help, don't worry about me."
"Okay, miss." Xia Yu said and hurried back to help.
After Gu Xiaoxi came back, she parked the carriage and asked Ershun who was busy in the yard. She felt a little relieved when she learned that Yingsan and Yingsi had both returned and were all helping with Cha Liao outside.
Go back to the room to sort out some things, boil some water, take a shower and change into clean clothes.
In order not to show up in front of Scarface, she did not go out.
After waiting for about half an hour, there was a knock on Zhuangzi's door. Ershun opened the yard door and Gu He and his wife came back.
After they came back, others also came back one after another.
Everyone was very happy to see Gu Xiaoxi come back, and the children were talking and laughing happily.
Let’s have dinner together tonight and talk about these roadside businesses.
Halfway through the meal, Gu Xiaoxi instructed everyone: "Brother, sister-in-law, and third brother, from now on, the tea stall must be closed before dark."
"Why? Sometimes business is better after dark." Gu Dongming said excitedly.
"Because this is on the roadside, there aren't soldiers or runners walking around like in the city, so it's not too chaotic even at night.
The people coming and going in this place are very complicated. If you encounter a robber, do you think you will make more money or lose more? "Gu Xiaoxi reminded everyone that money can be made, but you can't do business at a loss.
Gu He thought of the bandits before. Although they moved some of them here, those bandits would still move around. They might be robbed by the bandits before the robbers on the road appeared.
"Xiaoxi is right. We are blinded by the good business. If the city gates are closed at night and we really run into bandits, we will lose more than we gain." He agreed with his daughter's opinion.
After hearing this, the old patriarch Gu nodded in agreement: "Xiaoxi is right. Think about it, there are so many manors nearby. Why don't they open teahouses at the door? There must be a reason."
"Those farms are all run by big bosses. How could they be interested in such a trivial business?" Gu Nanming said.
"Third brother, if you don't believe what I said, you can go ask Tan Dahe tomorrow to see if what I said is right?" Gu Xiaoxi knew that his third brother and the others wanted to make money, but there were many ways to make money, and there was no need to do something too risky.
Ying San and Ying Si listened while eating, but did not say anything.
Since Miss Xiaoxi said this, she probably discovered that there was something very wrong with the last group of guests who came today. They believed that after dinner, Miss Xiaoxi would definitely call them in for questioning.
After dinner, some were happy and some were worried.
Gu Feng could see what his two uncles were thinking, but he agreed with what his mother said. It was really dangerous on the roadside at night.
Gu Bingxue and Gu Ruixue seemed to understand but not quite, and they didn't dare to speak while eating.
After dinner, Gu Xiaoxi called Ying San and Ying Si into the house to talk.
"Girl, is there something wrong with the group of people tonight?" After closing the door, Ying San spoke first.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded and said to them, "I don't know who ordered this group of people to rob the tomb, and I ran into them on my way back.
They act suspiciously and don’t seem like good people.”
Ying Si was thinking seriously about the appearance of those people, and suddenly thought of something, then whispered: "I remember, I have seen that scarred face before.
That time I saw him coming out of the Grand Prince's Palace, accompanied by the Grand Prince's confidants."
"They are most likely the eldest prince's men. If that's the case, we have to be more careful. If they are looking for tombs nearby, they may be moving back and forth." Gu Xiaoxi didn't know what orders they had received, and there was no guarantee they would come back.
After hearing this, Ying San and Ying Si understood why Miss Xiaoxi was unwilling to do business at night.
Gu Xiaoxi asked Ying San some more questions about someone.
"After the master asked you to come back, don't go out again. Just rest at home and wait for him to come back." Ying Si told the girl the master's original words.
After listening to this, Gu Xiaoxi nodded and told them to go about their own business.
She took three gifts from space and gave them to the three children.
It’s a bit late now, so I’ll give the other children’s gifts tomorrow.
"Mom, you've been gone for a long time this time. Can you take us with you next time you go out?" Gu Ruixue wanted to go out and have a look. It seemed a bit boring to stay in the farm every day.
It's different here than in the village. There is a river here and you can go fishing sometimes.
"Yes, Mom, I also want to go out for a walk." Gu Bingxue also spoke.
Gu Feng comforted his sisters: "Sisters, mother goes out to do business and earn money. If we go with her, it will cause trouble for her.
When we are almost done waiting for Mom, can we let her take us out to play?"
Gu Xiaoxi looked at Afeng with satisfaction. This child was so sensible.
"Yes, Afeng is right. In a few days, when I have checked the medicinal seedlings and there are no problems, I will take you to other cities for a walk. Do you think it's okay?" she asked the two children.
Bang bang bang!
The young sisters applauded repeatedly to show their strong approval.
Gu Feng's lips curled up into a smile, which seemed to convince his two younger sisters, so that their mother could focus on her work.
"Afeng, I brought you some books. If you don't understand something, you can ask me or ask Qiu Shuang and the others." After saying this, Gu Xiaoxi stuffed a few books into Afeng's hands.
"Thank you, Mom!" Gu Feng's favorite gift is books.
In his opinion, he needs to absorb a lot of different knowledge. Only when he becomes strong inside can he be truly strong.
"Afeng, it's a good thing that you like to learn skills, but you also need to know how to balance work and rest. Otherwise, not only will you not make fast progress, but you will also get sick from overwork." Gu Xiaoxi persuaded Afeng seriously.
"Mom, I know. I won't do it again." Gu Feng knew that he must have often studied late into the night, and someone must have told his mother about it.
"Don't worry, you are still young and have plenty of time to learn skills." Gu Xiaoxi patted Gu Feng's shoulder.
At this moment, the door to the courtyard outside was knocked.
Bang bang bang!
Ershun walked over to open the door, but was stopped by Yingsan.
"Let's see who it is first?" Ying San was worried that those people would come back in the afternoon.
Ershun looked through the small hole in the door and saw the scarred man, so scared that he took a few steps back.
