After dressing up as the wife of the hero of the imperial examination, I ran away

Time passed day by day, Su Xiaomu asked Gu Jingcheng to visit Shangguan Rui, it was really the right thing to do.

Gu Jingcheng has a lot of knowledge, he is both talented and humble in reading, so he is very appreciated by Shangguan Rui.

Gu Jingcheng would be called by Shangguan Rui to study in Shangguan's mansion three out of five days, and he would often go out early and return late at night.

Gu Jingcheng was busy, and Su Xiaomu was not idle in the inn either.

She continued to fiddle with her business, both grocery stores and beauty salons opened branches in the capital.

However, Su Xiaomu's everything in the capital has just started, she has no contacts and only a little money, so she still has some difficulties in expanding her business territory.

After all, the capital is the wealthiest place in the country and the place where the most money gathers. After visiting all the markets, Su Xiaomu has a rough idea of ​​the price of the branch she wants to open.

It's just that no matter how many rare things there are in the capital, and no matter how complete the items are, she still hasn't found the porcelain she wants to buy.

And if she wanted to find a kiln here to burn porcelain by herself, not only would the cost be high, but it would also be difficult to find a suitable kiln.

In desperation, Su Xiaomu had no choice but to continue to sign a contract with the porcelain factory in Fucheng, and send the porcelain pictures she wanted to Fucheng, and let the manager burn them and send them to her. Although this would cost more money in transportation, But at least the quantity and quality are guaranteed.

The matter of opening a branch was carried out in an orderly manner under Su Xiaomu's busy work.

She goes out early and returns late every day to work hard for her career, and takes care of everything carefully.

Whether it was a grocery store or a beauty salon, Su Xiaomu would personally watch over the decoration.

Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng were busy with their own affairs.

When Su Xiaomu woke up in the morning, he would prepare breakfast for him, and told him to study hard, but not to hurt himself too much.

After Gu Jingcheng came back from Shangguan Mansion in the evening, he would deliberately take a detour to pick Su Xiaomu back to the inn.

The two of them held hands and walked on the way home under the setting sun. In front of them was the snuggling person, and behind them was their little shadow.

Su Xiaomu is very satisfied with their peaceful life at the moment. Both of them are working hard for their respective bright futures. Everyone is working hard in the direction they want to use. They will no longer aim sharp thorns at each other like before, let each other not happy.

At the dinner table, Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng serve each other's dishes. When they sit and eat, Gu Jingcheng will praise Su Xiaomu's cooking skills, and he loves every dish she cooks.

Su Xiaomu would also drink some wine with him, and actively ask him how his studies were today and if he learned anything new.

The two respect each other as guests, one is gentle and considerate, and the other is small and gratifying.

At night, Su Xiaomu was lying on the bed, and Gu Jingcheng, who had already fallen asleep, was lying next to her across the screen.

The moonlight entered the house, and a faint white light shone in from the dark night. Through the hazy veil of the screen, Su Xiaomu could vaguely see Gu Jingcheng's peaceful sleeping face.

There was no sound in the middle of the night, she deliberately slowed down her breathing, listening to Gu Jingcheng's breathing very seriously.

She watched the ups and downs of his chest, and sketched his handsome face in her mind. At this moment, Su Xiaomu felt as if something was trying to get out of her heart, and kept growing.

She put her hand over her heart uneasily, feeling her heart beating non-stop.

Su Xiaomu's grocery store and beauty salon opened one after the other.

She is a person who knows how to choose names, the grocery store is called "Nan Lai Bei Qu", and the beauty salon still uses the name of Xiyue Pavilion.

Zhumeng Xiaozhu is also good, but Su Xiaomu in the capital did not find a natural hot spring.

But even if there is, it should have been circled by dignitaries for their own use.

The wives and ladies in the capital all have full wallets, and they like to try new things. As soon as Su Xiaomu's two shops opened, they didn't even spend much money on publicity, and the business was already extremely hot.

A lot of money flowed into Su Xiaomu's pocket, which made her carry so much money for the first time, and gave birth to an unreal feeling.

It's just that the big tree attracts the wind, and Su Xiaomu hasn't made money for a few days, and the troublemakers came.

A burly man with seven or eight sleazy men started smashing things as soon as he entered the shop.

After all, they are afraid that some of the wives and young ladies in Xiyue Pavilion have identities that they can't afford to mess with, so the main thing they hit is the people who are next to them.

"I said you are a beautiful little lady, but your brain is not very good. Who allows you to do business here? It's also a grocery store. You can choose a name, but you can't."

The big man was playing with the wooden stick in his hand with a grinning grin, and threatened Su Xiaomu with his mouth.

His younger brother drove away all the customers who came to buy things, leaving only Su Xiaomu and the servants she bought in this shop.

"What do you mean? Who told you to come."

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, she really can't hide from these troublemakers anywhere.

The last time it was the big guy who came to trouble her, this time it was the big guy who came to trouble her.

It seems that next time she will also raise some thugs, she can't be bullied by others every time.

Su Xiaomu made a secret decision in her heart, she stretched out her hand and hugged the trembling frightened man behind her, and faced the troublemaker directly.

To be honest, Su Xiaomu was also a little scared, but under this clear sky, no matter how daring these people are, they might not dare to provoke trouble in public, at least her life is not in danger.

The big man didn't pay much attention to the delicate little lady in front of him. He was entrusted with loyalty, and he only came to smash things to fulfill his employer's orders.

But I didn't expect this little lady to be a bit bloody.

His face turned pale because he was afraid of them, and he even protected his servants behind him.

With their small stature, he can easily punch a single one.

"Little lady, you don't need to care who we are looking for, as long as you know that you have offended someone you can't afford to offend, I won't embarrass you when you are a little girl, and you will close your shop immediately. Do some other business, I think you are a smart person, little lady, and you don’t need us to remind you of what you can do in the future.”

The wooden stick in the big man's hand smashed into his own palm again and again, he looked at Su Xiaomu's pale and blue, blue and red face, and sighed: "It's nothing to tell you, the person who hired me is like you." It is related to the Hou Mansion, you say you are only white, how can you offend such high-ranking officials and dignitaries."

"The matter of closing the shop will be over?"

Su Xiaomu sneered, she didn't believe that the Hou's mansion specially found someone to threaten her just to make her close the shop.

Although she has earned a lot of money because of these two shops, such a count is only a few copper coins for the Hou Mansion. They will not make a big market just because of this little money. There must be something deeper in it. .
