After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

Chapter 177 Business is booming but stumbling blocks continue

Because of Zhou's words, Song Yunxi stayed in Lian'er's yard and never questioned her about the small treasury again.

Zhou was happy to be free, but now she was really strapped for money because of Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing's scheme.

There might have been some pretense before, after all, he brought a lot of dowry from the Zhou family.

I had no hope for the Hou Mansion, so I was keeping a cautious eye to protect myself.

But now that she has nothing because of Tan Zhixu, she is naturally angry and cannot accept it.

After staying at the house for several days, Zhou kept sending people to keep an eye on the shop in the western suburbs.

Knowing that Tan Zhixu's side had already tidied up, the Gu family also sent a distant relative to guard the shop.

I heard that one of the shops specializes in escorting escorts, and the other shop sells small items for foreign circulation.

That's right. As the canal admiral, Gu Huaijing needs to travel to various state capitals from time to time. He naturally knows what the specialties of each place are.

As long as Gu Huaijing really opens his business, I think the business will definitely be good.

But the more he thought about this, the more complicated Zhou's mood became.

She was so dazed that she didn't hear Lianxiang calling her. When she called out an unknown number of times, Zhou came to her senses and was frightened.

Seeing Lianxiang bared her teeth at him, Zhou raised his hand and slapped her.

"You bastard, who allowed you to scare this lady like this?"

Zhou looked at Lianxiang fiercely.

Lianxiang, who originally had a smile on her face, knelt on the ground in an instant, and her expression softened, "Madam, please forgive me, it's all your fault. It's my fault. I hope Madam won't be angry."

Lianxiang shrank her neck, Zhou's chest felt tight with anger, "What's the matter?"

"Madam, please ask your servant to look at the shop in the western suburbs. I saw that everyone there has left. There is no one on duty in the shop now."

"Unattended?"

The gloomy Zhou's expression changed instantly, and a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.

"Yes, this slave can see clearly that there is no one around."

Lianxiang knew that such a report would bring a smile to her face, so she answered quickly.

nobody?
Tan Zhixu, you really are not worried at all! ! !

Thinking of this, the smile in Zhou's eyes grew stronger.

After a while, Mrs. Zhou smiled and helped Lianxiang up, "Lianxiang, come here."

Looking at the suddenly gentle lady, Lianxiang was even timid.

The moment their eyes met, Lianxiang tried her best to remain calm. It wasn't until Zhou pulled her into the house that her heart calmed down a little.

"Lianxiang, my wife has asked you to do something, can you do it well?"

"Ma'am, tell me."

Lianxiang naturally knew that Zhou would not arrange a good job for her, but she also knew that she could not refuse.

Mrs. Zhou was quite satisfied with Lian Xiang's straightforward answer. He held her hand and said, "Lian Xiang, you must know that this lady can only rely on you this time."

After saying this, Lianxiang straightened up instantly. She knew that what Madam meant was that this matter must be done, otherwise...

Lianxiang didn't dare to think about the consequences. She just nodded with a smile, "Madam, just tell me, I will definitely do it."

Ever since, Mrs. Zhou smiled and whispered.

When Mrs. Zhou said, Lianxiang's expression was still normal, but the corners of her mouth were twitching, indicating that what Mr. Zhou told her made her very scared.

After a while, Lianxiang felt blessed and asked, "Madam, are you going to do it now?"

"Go ahead and wait for your good news."

Mrs. Zhou smiled and waved to Lianxiang.

Lianxiang nodded without thinking, turned around and went directly to the western suburbs.

Not long after, the people from Lianxiang had arrived outside the shop in the western suburbs.

After looking around to make sure there was really no one, Lianxiang ran over and climbed over the wall from the backyard into the shop. Looking at the shop that was completely different from before, something was beating faintly in Lianxiang's heart, but she didn't have much time to think about it.

After adjusting her emotions, Lianxiang placed everything in the right place according to Zhou's instructions.

After a lot of busy work, half an hour has passed.

Look at Lianxiang, who is already sweating profusely.

As the sky darkened, Lianxiang ran away again.

She ran so fast that she didn't notice anyone following her.

Seeing Lian Xiang enter the Hou Mansion, the man also left quietly.

A quarter of an hour later, this person arrived at Gu Mansion.

Gu Huaijing had just planned to ask Teng Xi to find Tan Zhixu, but he saw the spy coming in.

So fast?
He had placed this person near his shop in the western suburbs. If he appeared at this moment, it could only mean that Tan Zhixu's prediction was right again.

This Zhou family really can't sit still for a moment.

Sure enough, as soon as the spy stepped forward, he said in a cold voice: "Master, the maid of the Hou Mansion has placed a lot of herbs that can cause diarrhea in the shop, and the quantity is very large."

"Diarrhea herbs?"

Teng Xi thought he heard wrongly, so he rubbed his ears and continued to look at the spy.

The spy nodded, and Teng Xi suddenly laughed, "Isn't this Zhou crazy? Can you do such a vulgar thing?"

As soon as he said this, Teng Xi thought of Tan Zhixu.

She is usually in the Hou Mansion, and this time Mrs. Zhou dislikes her everywhere, so how much more will she suffer?

Thinking of this, Tengxi frowned and said, "Master, do you think Miss Tan is more miserable in the Hou Mansion than we thought?"

"Ah."

Gu Huaijing lowered his head and responded. After a while, he looked at the spy, "Go and put everything away, and then replace it with plants that calm the mind and calm the mind."

"Yes."

The spy hurried back.

After sending the spy away, Teng Xi came to Gu Huaijing angrily, "Master, what should I do?"

"Tell Xu Xu about this and follow her instructions."

Teng Xi had wanted to do this for a long time, but after receiving Gu Huaijing's instructions, he disappeared in a flash.

Gu Huaijing looked at Teng Xi, who was coming in a hurry. He paused for a moment before getting up. He went directly to the government office.

When Gu Huaijing arrived at the government office, Teng Xi also arrived at the restaurant.

"Miss Tan, Miss Tan, you are really good at predicting things."

Teng Xi was breathing heavily, putting his hands on his legs to support his upper body, and he was talking word by word.

Tan Zhixu had just finished settling the accounts. Seeing Teng Xi like this, she couldn't help but laugh, "Commander Teng, what's wrong with you? What happened to make you so anxious?"

"It's Mrs. Zhou. That shrew actually put laxatives in the shop..."

Tengxi quickly told Tan Zhixu what happened.

He said excitedly, but Tan Zhixu acted very calmly.

"That's it?"

"Are you not worried at all?"

When Teng Xi saw Tan Zhixu being so calm, he thought of his master. It seemed that his master was also so upset when he heard about this.

Say it or not, they are quite similar to each other.

"Mr. Zhou, if she didn't do anything, then I would be worried. Now that she has acted, it is normal. Moreover, Mrs. Zhou only has so many methods. I have long been used to it."
