Chapter 196 Could it be that he didn’t rely on his father?



Gu Beiheng had a barely perceptible smile on his lips. Yue Jiushao saw the corner of his mouth slightly raised as he frowned.

There were ten thousand words in his mind that he wanted to say, if only he knew he could use grass instead.

Yue Qinggang got off the carriage, and Gu Beiheng had already come to greet him. Xie Yi, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, stepped down from the carriage and bowed, saying, "Master Gu, Madam Gu. We are sorry to bother you again."

Su Qi saw the carriage behind and thought, is this another New Year gift?

Gu Beiheng clasped his fists in return and said in a clear voice, "Welcome to our hospitality. If you are not in a hurry to return to Jiangnan, why not stay here for a few more days?"

Gu Beiheng also wanted to use Yue Qinggang's resources to cooperate on some things.

Nowadays, a lot of Hulushan's meat sauce and dried meat are sold to Jiangnan through Yue Qinggang's shop, and are very popular among people in Jiangnan.

Yue Jiushao felt a little jealous.

They all have the surname Yue, why is there such a big difference in their treatment?

Could it be that he didn't rely on his father?

Yue Jiushao made up his mind that next time he would say that he was Yue Jiushao, the son of Yue Zhennan, the imperial merchant of Dongqi.

Yue Jiushao moved to Su Qi's side and asked Su Qi in a low voice:

"This guy has a sly smile on his face, and he wants to cooperate with you?"

Su Qi's lips curled slightly, "Yue Qinggang's smile was sincere. So, you two were a family five hundred years ago?"

Two hundred years ago, the world was unified.

There is no distinction between Dashun and Dongqi at all, the two countries are one country.

Yue Jiushao curled his lips. This kid is smooth-talking and good at speaking.

Yue Qinggang didn't show any displeasure when he saw Yue Jiushao. When he heard that it was Yue Jiushao from Dongqi, he naturally exchanged pleasantries with him again.

After a while.

Yue Jiushao and Yue Qinggang became close friends. How could there be any dislike at all?

The two began to discuss whether there was any business they could collaborate on.

Su Qi sighed, Yue Qinggang is indeed a social hero.

When Yue Qinggang heard that Yue Jiushao was going to stay in Mengjiazhuang for the Spring Festival, how could he leave here in disgrace?

I immediately decided to stay in Mengjiazhuang to celebrate the Spring Festival.

Yue Qinggang, Yue Jiushao and Xie Yi lived in the front yard.

He happened to live opposite Su Tianze and Su Tianci.

There are guests at home.

Su Qi directed Xiao Liuzi, Xianghe, Baizhi and others to put the things into the warehouse.

The meat was taken to the kitchen warehouse.

Since so many things have been delivered, I might as well give everyone a snack in the evening.

Meanwhile, Monkey, Xie Xiaodan, and others from the Northwest Army Camp had to enter Hulu Mountain to investigate. Gu Beiheng sent Shadow Five, Shadow Four, and Shadow Three out.

Su Qi prepared a lot of medicine and instant noodles for them to take with them, and the instant noodles had their outer packaging removed.

I also gave them some candy and compressed biscuits.

Several people knew that the lady had something good in her hands, so they would not have any doubts even if they did not recognize her.

There are so many things in the world that we don’t know.

Gu Beiheng gave them two clairvoyants and two flashlights.

"Ying San, when you arrive at Hulu Mountain, meet up with Xie Xiaodan and the others. Bring plenty of food with you. You must come back alive no matter what." Gu Beiheng warned Ying San and the others earnestly.

It's hard to find food in the winter forest. Even the animals stay indoors.

Shadow Three, Shadow Four, and Shadow Five saluted together.

"Master, I will definitely come back alive."

Ke Suanzi walked in from outside, muttering, and raised his half-drooped eyelids.

He looked at Ying San and the others and handed them the bundle. "Boys, here are all kinds of poisons, and there is a Hundred Poison Pill that can cure all kinds of poisons."

After a pause, Ke Suanzi saw Ying San and the others' eyes light up. He then spoke again, "It's not true that it can cure all poisons, but it can cure some special poisons. Some special poisons can also have a suppressive effect."

"Thank you, Mr. Ke." Ying San and the others knew that Ke Suanzi was Su Qi's master, and they respected him very much.

Ke Suanzi narrowed his eyes and waved his hand, saying, "You still have to work during the New Year, so I have to give you some benefits."

After saying that, he smacked his lips, looked at Su Qi, and said with a flattering smile, "Girl. Master is a good person, right? Can you give me one of that black candy?"

Su Qi was stunned. "What black candy?"

Ke Suanzi's eyebrows drooped. "That's what you prepared for Ying San and the others. I haven't tasted it yet, so how does it taste?"

Su Qi chuckled silently.

He took a piece of chocolate out of his pocket and handed it to Ke Suanzi. "Master, eat it sparingly."

Ke Suanzi took it with a smile and took away a bag of fruit candy on the table.

Su Qi pretended not to see it and gave Ying San and the others another bag of fruit candy.

Watching Ying San and the others leave, Su Qi was like a worried parent. She wanted to stuff their luggage full, just in case they needed medicine and went hungry.

"Madam, we are here for sightseeing." Ying Sanyi was confused.

I always feel that Su Qi is going in the wrong direction.

These bags of stuff were nothing like the essential medicines and daggers they usually brought with them on missions.

At most, I would bring three or five steamed buns or pancakes with me when I go out.

"We know you're not just here for sightseeing, so we've prepared everything. When you get to Hulu Mountain, there are brothers going with you. Bei Heng is right, safety is paramount. We don't want you to make fearless sacrifices. As long as there's green mountains, there's no shortage of firewood."

Ying San's throat felt a little sore and his eyes became moist.

He clasped his fists and said, "I obey your command."

Cao Wei and Lu Hanshan heard that Ying San and the other two were going to Hulu Mountain, so they applied to go with them. Gu Beiheng thought for a while and let them leave with them.

The five of them packed their bags and left.

Yingyi and a few others went out to warn them.

Su Qi returned to the backyard.

Xia He was arranging meat dishes and various snacks.

Seeing Su Qi coming over, he bowed and said, "Madam, there are quite a few snack boxes, and the packaging is very exquisite."

"Can you do these?"

Xia He smiled and said, "Most of them can make it. But I have never made this rose water. I think it tastes good.

I decided to stay here to test it out, and also to give it to my wife to drink early in the morning."

"Okay. Pick out some snacks and prepare two kinds of meat for Fifth Uncle and Aunt Gu." The Aunt Gu that Su Qi was referring to was naturally Gu Xiuming's mother.

"Another box of snacks and a pound of meat. Prepare five portions to give to the clan leader of Mengjia Village and the new village chief. The village chief of Baijia Village, as well as the clan leader and village chief of Tangjia Village."

"Yes. I'll remember that." Xia He agreed in a crisp voice.

Gu Xiuming's wife and Gu Xiuting's wife came over to help pack the snacks and pork.

She kept on saying in amazement, "Madam, please keep it and give it to others. Forget about it for my mother. We will also learn to make some snacks for her every day."

"That's right. Besides, she often eats snacks at home." Gu Xiuting's wife also persuaded.

Gu Xiuming's mother took on the job of entertaining several nearby farms at Su Qi's mansion, and she often hung around the Gu mansion on weekdays.

Xia He would always leave two pieces of snacks for her.

Su Qi smiled and said, "Auntie also needs nice snacks to show her favor, so just do as I say."

Su Qi picked out a few excellent snacks and bought five pounds of beef, one ox hoof, and a pig's butt. She also asked Xiao Liuzi to pick some vegetables from the fields and pack a pound of strawberries into boxes.

These gifts were to be delivered by Xiao Liuzi to Qian Daru.

Although Qian Daru's sons and grandsons all worked for Gu Beiheng, Qian Daru was the teacher of the scholars in the family after all, and Su Qi naturally treated him well.

Xiao Liuzi, Han Dazhuang, and Mao Xiaodao began to sort out the gifts and took them to the front yard for Lai Guowei, Li Xiaoshan, and the others to deliver to Baijia Village, Tangjiazhuang, and Mengjiazhuang first.

The gift for Qian Daru's family was delivered personally by Xiao Liuzi.

Taking advantage of the year-end gift-giving period, Su Qi simply instructed Han Dazhuang to go to the vegetable shed and ask Meng Gou to pick more vegetables.

I also picked a lot of strawberries.

They were all sent to the homes of County Magistrate Zhou Hua'an, Chief Secretary Yao, County Magistrate Lin, and Director Lu in the county town.

However, these people's homes mainly consisted of vegetables, with a few boxes of dried meat and a few cans of meat sauce, two kinds of snacks per family, and a small basket of strawberries.

Let Mu Guang and Han Dazhuang go and deliver it personally.
