Chapter 66
The news that the shopkeeper of Jinxiu Pavilion came to see Gu Zhian in person soon spread to the various rooms and courtyards of the Gu family. At this time, Gu Qingfeng was having dinner in the old lady's courtyard, and the delicate and gentle Zeng Zhuer was sitting beside him, giving Gu Qingfeng cloths from time to time. The food, the eye contact, the witty remarks, praised Gu Qingfeng so that he didn't know the east, west, north, south, and east, and it was very useful.

At this time, a servant came to report the matter, and talked about the fact that the treasurer of Jinxiu Pavilion came to ask Gu Zhian to see him in person.

The old lady frowned, and asked the servant: "The shopkeeper of Jinxiu Pavilion asked to see that girl from Anlan Yuan? Did you make a mistake?"

The servant said: "The shopkeeper bluntly asked to see the eldest lady, and even gave her name and surname clearly."

Due to Jin Chunniang's deliberate neglect, most people outside only know that the Gu family has Gu Zhinian, a lady with both talents and looks. Only a few people who know the details of the Gu family know that there are actually two young ladies in the Gu family. The second young lady from the second wife, and the eldest young lady from the first wife.

So no matter who came to the mansion to mention Miss Gu's family, the Gu family would naturally think of Gu Zhinian instead of contacting Gu Zhi'an.

"Do you know what happened?" the old lady asked.

The servant shook his head, "I asked the steward, but the shopkeeper refused to tell. He seemed to have brought a lot of gifts, and when he met the maids in the eldest lady's courtyard, he was very respectful."

Gu Qingfeng frowned, not as confused as the old lady, but just waved at the servant lightly, "Understood, you go down first."

Zeng Zhu'er is very good at winking, seeing the master's appearance, she should know some inside information, so she asked softly: "Master, how about Zhu'er step down first."

Gu Qingfeng waved his hand, "No, it's not something that can't be said." Then he turned to look at the old lady, "Jinxiu Pavilion is the Jiangnan He family's property in the capital, and so is Huichun Hall."

"What?" The old lady was shocked, and almost knocked over the teacup in her hand.

No wonder the old lady was so shocked, whether it was Huichun Hall or Jinxiu Pavilion, they were all famous industry leaders in the capital, even the clothes she wore, and the supplements and medicines she usually ate and drank were mostly from Jinxiu Pavilion and Jinxiu Pavilion. After so many years, Huichun Hall was discovered to be the property of the Jiangnan He family.

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I wasted so much money." If I had known earlier that it was He's property, wouldn't she have saved the money she spent on buying medicine and clothes over the years.

Gu Qingfeng said: "I also inadvertently learned in the past two years that the fact that He's is the big boss behind the scenes has not been put on the table. On the surface, the owners of these two shops are other people, and they don't plan to make it public. , even if we ask, people won’t admit it, and it’s useless to say more.”

The old lady was very upset when she heard this, "What does He's mean? With such a big shop in the capital city, how could they not know us? Who are they defending against?"

Gu Qingfeng didn't answer the words, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

The old lady thought for a while, and then asked: "Since they have kept it a secret for so many years, why are they showing up again now, with such a big fanfare, giving gifts and visiting the door to ask for an interview, what are they trying to do?"

Gu Qingfeng thought of the astonishing changes in his eldest daughter these days, and had a bad premonition in his heart.

At this time, the old lady also thought about this, her eyebrows and eyes sharpened, her voice raised a bit, "It can't be that damn girl from Anlan Courtyard who did it?"

Gu Qingfeng couldn't sit still anymore, he remembered what Gu Zhian said before, when she asked him when he planned to return the dowry that He left behind after his death.

"Mother, my son still has some important things to deal with, so you should rest earlier."

After Gu Qingfeng finished speaking, he didn't care what the old lady's expression was, he didn't even glance at the soft and fragrant Meijiao Niang beside him, and left in a hurry.

Zeng Zhu'er was not dissatisfied at all, seeing the master had gone, she moved to the old lady's side, smiling flatteringly, "Madam, since the Jinxiu Pavilion is our own property, why don't I go to the Jinxiu Pavilion tomorrow to pick out two yuan for you?" Material, how about cutting autumn clothes for you? Zhuer has heard that Jinxiu Pavilion has recently brought a batch of Bayue material, which is a good material that we have never had in the capital city."
