Cheng Yue is very strong and ordinary people cannot subdue her, but what if Xu Yingying and the others find someone who is not an ordinary person?
Shanshui really wanted to kill those three people directly.
However, these three people are not bandits. He is about to marry Cheng Yue and will not commit a crime at this juncture.
"Hey, Ayue, Shanshui, are you guys arguing about this?"
At this time, Gu Xuelan and Xue Hanyu walked out of the inner courtyard. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Gu Xuelan asked.
"Nonsense! How could I possibly quarrel with Shanshui? Sister-in-law, Hanyu, are you guys done talking?"
Cheng Yue replied.
"Almost done. I was just about to come out to see if you guys are here. The food is warming up in the kitchen. It's perfect, we can eat when you're here."
Xue Hanyu replied.
So the four of them went into the dining room.
At the dinner table, Gu Xuelan talked about her plan to meet with the shopkeepers of various Ruyi Manor and asked Cheng Yue if she wanted to come.
"I won't come. Sister-in-law, I believe you can handle it. We agreed that I will only be responsible for drawing the pictures. I still have things to do at the tavern and the dessert shop!"
Cheng Yue shook her head.
"Then Shanshui, come on! Even without saying a word, Shanshui can still be very intimidating. Shanshui, are you willing?"
Gu Xuelan didn't force Cheng Yue, but looked at Shanshui and asked.
"when?"
Shanshui frowned and asked.
"Probably the day after tomorrow, on the morning of the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. Manager He of the county embroidery shop has just confirmed the time. All the shopkeepers can come tomorrow night, so the time is set for the morning of the day after tomorrow. It will be at the Shen family's house."
Xue Hanyu answered in a low voice.
"Well, good. Then we can ask Master Shangji and Awu to come over together. That way, those old shopkeepers won't make things too difficult for you, Miss Xue, in public."
Shanshui thought about it and nodded in agreement.
He knew that Gu Xuelan wanted him or Cheng Yue to be present as well. From now on, Ruyi Manor would have three bosses, so one of him and Cheng Yue had to be present.
"Well, tell Master Shangji and Second Brother to tell those shopkeepers who have ideas in their minds to either say it out loud or keep it to themselves!"
Cheng Yue nodded repeatedly, thinking that Shanshui was right.
She really didn't have time to come over, and she really didn't intend to take care of Ruyi Zhuang's business. She believed in Gu Xuelan's ability.
"Okay, then go back and tell Ah Wu tonight. Hanyu, you should also send someone to tell Lord Ji a message."
Gu Xuelan said.
"Sister-in-law, Ayue, Brother Mingxuan comes over to spend some time with me every night. I'll tell him tonight."
Xue Hanyu nodded and said.
"Huh? Every night?"
Cheng Yue was a little surprised.
Gu Xuelan also looked at Xue Hanyu in surprise.
"Yes. Sometimes Brother Mingxuan will stay with me after dinner, and sometimes after he finishes his work, he will come and sit with me for a while before going back. I know he is worried that I will do something stupid."
Whenever Xue Hanyu noticed something was wrong with Cheng Yue and Gu Xuelan's surprise, he would explain it in a way that seemed natural.
"Hanyu, is Master Ji married?"
Gu Xuelan and Cheng Yue exchanged a glance, then looked at Xue Hanyu and asked curiously.
"Brother Mingxuan is engaged to a girl from the Anyuan Earl family. They were supposed to get married two years ago, but Miss Cheng's mother passed away, and she had to observe a three-year mourning period. Brother Mingxuan has been waiting for Miss Cheng, so they should be able to get married next year!"
Xue Hanyu said.
"Miss Cheng? Master Ji's fiancée also has the surname Cheng? Is it the same as mine?"
Cheng Yue asked curiously.
