The farmer has a mall

Chapter 78 Tianlei's First Appearance
After dinner, Gu Nanyan finally walked out of the guest room.

She pinched the bridge of her nose with tiredness on her face.

Asking Bai Zhi to stay and take care of Xu Shun, Gu Nanyan approached Gu Yao.

After listening to the cause and effect, Gu Nanyan was silent for a moment, then returned to Qifeng Pavilion without saying a word.

Lying on the bed, Gu Nanyan opened the mall and frowned as he looked at the prices above.

Gu Yao originally thought that with his granddaughter's current temper, there would be a big fuss. Anyway, they had torn faces with King Ning, and Gu Yao was not afraid of what his granddaughter would do.

But to everyone's surprise, Gu Nanyan hadn't been out of the house for several days since that day, except that she would appear in the front yard when changing Xu Shun's dressing, and stayed alone in the room the rest of the time.

During this period, I only found Zheng Tiesheng, gave him a blueprint, and locked myself up again.

Gu Yao felt that his granddaughter's reaction was wrong, and worried that something might happen to her, so he asked Zheng Tiesheng what Gu Nanyan had told him.

"Nan Yatou only asked me to help her build some things, and didn't say anything else."

After finishing speaking, Zheng Tiesheng took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

Gu Yao took a look and saw a fist-sized iron can was drawn on it, and the can was uneven.

On the top of the can is an elbow iron piece about one finger wide, and the iron piece and the can are connected together with a thin needle.

Gu Yao looked at it in a daze, unable to understand what his granddaughter wanted this thing for.

Zheng Tiesheng couldn't understand either, but he didn't ask any more questions, and just followed what Gu Nanyan described to him.

This thing is not difficult, Zheng Tiesheng only spent more than half a day to produce two samples.

After Gu Nanyan thanked him, he returned to the house with two tin cans.

Two quarters of an hour later, he left Prince Sheng's mansion alone and headed for the outskirts of the city.

That afternoon, a shocking rumor spread in the capital.

It is said that thunder fell from the wilderness on the outskirts of the city, splitting the ground into two deep pits half a person's height, and the sound was so loud that one could hear the movement five miles away.

Thinking of the day when the rumors spread, it happened to be the day when Gu Nanyan left the house.

Zheng Tiesheng always felt that the matter of Tianlei had nothing to do with her.

Xu Shun's injury is recovering well, and he can already eat some liquid food that is easy to swallow.

Gu Nanyan smeared a thick layer of plaster on his leg, and the stitches would be removed in half a month.

Dou Bi, who was brought back from the army by Li Yi to take care of Xu Shun, stared at his leg all day long, wishing to remove the plaster immediately to see how the wound healed.

It's just that he is an old bone, and he can't stand Gu Nanyan throwing it again, so even if he is very curious, he dare not make unnecessary movements.

With Dou Bi helping Xu Shun change his dressing, Gu Nanyan had more time.

After filling the twenty-odd tin cans that Zheng Tiesheng gave her with gunpowder and putting them in a special box, Gu Nanyan let out a breath.

The price of grenades in the shopping mall is too high, one cost more than 1 taels of silver, and the money in her hand is not enough.

Things like firing pins and small detonators are very cheap.

So she asked Zheng Tiesheng to help her make the shell, and asked Bai Shao to go to the pharmacy to buy some sulfur and saltpeter.

On the day the sample was ready, she went to the outskirts of the city to try it out. Although the power was weaker than modern times, it was an irresistible weapon in this era of cold weapons.

Since Mrs. Liu had a mother-in-law to take care of her, she felt uncomfortable all day long, so she learned how to grow flowers from Aunt Cui.

Li Mi was basking in the sun in the yard, and was quite surprised to see Gu Nanyan coming with Mrs. Liu.

This girl has been suffocating in the house for several days, and she doesn't know what she is doing. It is rare to see her show up today.

Aunt Cui told Mrs. Liu the secrets of planting flowers, and Mrs. Liu took Gu Nanyan to listen, but she was always impatient with these flowers and plants, so she fell asleep after listening to them for a while.

Li Mi was overjoyed to see her thinking little by little.

One couldn't hold back a chuckle.

When Gu Nanyan heard the movement, she turned her head in a daze.

I saw Li Mi sitting leisurely on the recliner, with a wine glass in his hand.

A look of schadenfreude.

Gu Nanyan squinted her eyes, suddenly felt that his virtue was a bit of an eyesore, so she got up and walked towards Li Mi.

Li Mi: "..."

Don't come here!
It's over, I've been living so well recently, so I let my guard down, forgetting that this girl never cares who the other party is when she beats someone.

Gu Nanyan crossed her arms and kicked the chair leg.

"Why don't you go back to the palace!"

Chirping, it's been a few days since I've been back, and I'm like an old man all day, either basking in the sun or walking the birds.

Gu Nanyan glanced at his leg.

It would be even more like adding a cane.

Does she want to help this guy?
Seeing her eyes glowing green, Li Mi's face trembled.

Hold on, hold on, you must not let this girl have a chance to do something, this is not in the countryside, the yard is full of maids and servants!
"It's not that I don't want to go back to the palace, it's that the current situation doesn't allow it."

Li Mi lowered his voice, and his brain, which he didn't use much at ordinary times, was running fast.

From Gu Nanyan's tone, it seemed that he really hoped that he would return to the palace.

But why?
Xiao Jiu had already redeemed the 2000 taels of IOU he signed for him.

Then it's not about money.

What does this girl care about most besides money?

Li Mi looked at Liu Shi.

Could it be family?
He paused, and looked at Gu Nanyan suspiciously.

"You knew already?"

Gu Nanyan:? ? ?

Although she didn't know what she should know, Gu Nanyan nodded seriously.

"Oh, I see!"

Li Mi laughed dryly when he heard the words, Gu Nanyan instinctively felt that this guy had something to hide from him.

So she picked up the empty jug on the side table and lifted it to Li Mi's head.

"Did you recruit it yourself, or did I force you to recruit it?"

Li Mi: "..."

Don't you know what to do? !

Also, can you speak up if you have something to say?

The jug in your hand is made of jade!
The poor and frightened Li Mi was worried about the jug at the first moment, not his brain that would open it at any time.

His lips moved, and then he sighed helplessly.

"Your grandfather was injured."

Injuried?

Gu Nanyan frowned, could it be because of Fang Tong?
Li Mi saw her complexion and thought he was worried about Gu Yao, so he hurriedly said, "It's just a mouthful of blood. In order not to worry you, I moved to the courtyard in the northwest corner to recuperate in the past few days."

Only then did Gu Nanyan vaguely remember that she hadn't seen Gu Yao for several days.

"Okay, how can you get hurt?"

The last time she saw Gu Yao seemed to be when she left the house.

"Gu Yunze was taken away by King Ning's men. Your grandfather went to stop him alone, but he didn't want to be besieged by a dozen hidden guards."

Li Mi paused: "Both Xiaojiu and I suspected that King Ning had expected that Old General Gu would be there, and arranged a manpower to wait for him in advance."

Gu Yunze is Gu Qing's youngest son. Unlike the rest of the Gu family, Gu Yunze liked to read since he was a child, and he has no interest in learning martial arts.

The first time he participated in the examination last year, he won the Hui Yuan.

It can be said that Gu Yunze is the only descendant of the Gu family who does not know martial arts.

In Gu Nanyan's memory, he has always looked like a handsome young man, and he loves the original owner very much.

"When did it happen?" Gu Nanyan frowned.

Seeing that the jade pot on top of his head hadn't been put down, Li Mi swallowed and said, "The day before yesterday, before dawn, General Gu rushed to the General's Mansion after receiving the news. Fortunately, Xiao Jiu asked Long San to follow him all the time."

If not, it might not be as simple as vomiting blood.

Although King Ning did not dare to kill Gu Yao blatantly, after all, the military talisman of the Zhenbei Army is still in Gu Yao's hands. If Gu's family is angered, Gu Shen may lead his troops to kill the palace directly.

But it's okay for Gu Yao to be injured so badly that he has no time to take care of him.

Hearing this, Gu Nanyan put down the jade pot in his hand, talked to Mrs. Liu, and went to Gu Yao's yard.

Li Mi, who thought he had escaped, heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this girl didn't go crazy. It seems that she is also very knowledgeable about current affairs. Knowing that the capital is his territory, she dared not offend him again.

Li Mi grinned triumphantly, reaching out to touch the jade pot.

He snatched this from Xiaojiu. He drank some wine while basking in the sun in the winter. How could he show his noble status without a valuable jug!
Li Mi was enjoying himself, as soon as his fingertips landed on the jade pot, he heard a click.

The jade pot shattered at the sound.

Li Mi: "..."
