delicious little cook

Chapter 822
"Actually, to put it bluntly, this matter is essentially the same as letting Ms. Tong take risks during the Chinese New Year. In order for Ms. Tong to send out all the evidence smoothly, the preliminary preparations are all true. She wants to burn incense and make a wish, and she needs to prepare offerings , contacting friends, she is just carrying some things in the process of busying these things. Now this plan is also the same, all the foreshadowing on the surface is true, the prince will seriously provide disaster relief, and will be angry and helpless with the interests of Dacheng Mansion Conflicts broke out in the group. The manpower sent to buy men and women as slaves will carefully select the men and women who can work and ensure their safety along the way. My uncle Tang Lin did indeed go to buy beautiful girls and bring them back to the capital. Tune in, give the wealthy men in the capital something new. All parties are doing their own things, seemingly irrelevant to each other, just waiting for King Yu to arrive." Bai Kou said with a slight shrug.

"The most dangerous thing is probably Tang Lin. How he sent a sick prostitute to King Yu's bed is really curious, and judging from the latest layout, he is the only one who is alone and helpless. The man who bought Liang as a servant was sent out by the Dacheng Mansion, and it was too late for the Dacheng Mansion to cooperate. With a little effort, someone will cooperate with them. Only Tang Lin, what can he do to win the trust of the government and the rich gentry?" Gong Chang continued His eyes swept over Bai Kou and Gu Yun, hoping that one of them could answer his question.

"I don't know, my uncle said he has his own way, so I don't need to worry about it." Bai Kou spread his hands, "He probably doesn't want to tell me too many secrets in this industry."

"You're a girl, your uncle, a big man, tells you what to do, since he's sure, he can only trust him." Gu Yun raised his hand and patted Bai Kou's head.

"Then I wish you all the best."

Gong Changji raised his wine glass, Bai Kou and Gu Yun followed, and the three wine glasses collided crisply above the table.

The three of them had dinner, and after the feast was over, Gu Yun and Bai Kou returned to the Zhongming Courtyard, and heard Aunt Su talking about the latest gossip about the quarrel between Uncle Xu and Grandma Xu. They looked at each other, guessing that it might be related to that note, Shaking his head, he wondered how long Gan could last.

Gu Yun went back to his room to change clothes, then went to say goodnight to his elders, confessed to them honestly in his parents' room, asked his father for help, and mobilized the guards in the mansion to go on this long errand. No, as for who the Princess' Mansion will send to accompany her, that's Shi Tianmin's business, Gu Yun doesn't care.

After the Duke and Madam heard this, their noses were crooked. They were startled and angry. They almost asked a monk to clean up their son. The wings were really hard. Every time there was a big event, the parents were the last to know.

Gu Yun moved out of His Royal Highness in time to save his ass. Seeing that His Highness agreed to this plan, the Duke and his wife no longer pursued his son's own opinions, and the family of three sat down to discuss. Kou called to listen.

In front of the Eldest Master and the Eldest Madam, Bai Kou still strictly abides by her duties as a servant. She asked Mama Pang for a bill to sit alone, put a thick stack of papers on it, and listened to the various discussions between the Elder Madam and the Crown Prince. For the details, take notes on paper, draw a mind map, and draw all the relationships between the parties. She only raises her head to say a few words when she is asked to speak.

Mother Pang stood beside Bai Kou and helped her organize the waste papers. At first, she couldn't understand the pictures she drew, but as the details of the big masters discussed became more and more specific, the pattern of the pictures was also settled. Who is related to whom? , Whose task is what, what to do when the plan goes well, what is the way to delay the time when it fails, how to lay out the retreat route, how many people are needed to respond, what are the responsibilities of each division, etc. It's clear on this piece of paper.

This discussion lasted until the third watch, and no one could stop the topic once it was opened. Bai Kou did not expect that the Duke and his wife knew the geographical environment around Dacheng Mansion very well. Obviously, they paid much attention to that area on weekdays.

The three of them said they were tired, and Bai Kou also put down his pen, and laid out the drawn picture in front of them.

Seeing the densely drawn master plan, the Duke and Madam were naturally amazed. Gu Yun smiled and asked Bai Kou to put the picture away. It happened that tomorrow was the first match of their polo team. It was already said at dinner that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would come to watch the match, and this was also convenient for the few of them to have a break at noon to discuss in secret.

Jicheng hall broke up, everyone rested, the atmosphere in the second room was still not right, the uncle and the grandmother quarreled, the servants who served them did not send a message to the second wife, the husband and wife finished their argument, and they didn't sit down all night. Together, Gu Xu spent the night in the study.

Gan shi cried for half the night, and wrote a note to Princess Cheng the next morning to discuss matters with her.

Ning Peilan happened to be bored at home. She is now in the third trimester of pregnancy and can only stay at home. She can't even go out to watch a polo match. She is afraid that the crowd will hurt her. As soon as she received Gan's note, she immediately replied to welcome her to the door.

Gan could hardly sit still at home, the girl brought back Wang Hao's reply, she immediately dressed and changed, and went to the house with her daughter in her arms.

The two women played with the child for a while, Ning Peilan called the girl and led the nurse and the child to the garden to enjoy the scenery and enjoy the shade.

"This early in the morning, Grandma Gan is not at home doing housework, why come here to chat when she is free?"

"It's really helpless. After thinking about it, I can only confide some things to the princess."

"Oh? Are you in trouble? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be. Your family, Gu Xu, is in the limelight now. Both the government and the opposition say that he will be a person who will keep his wife and son in the future. Even if you have some difficulties during the Chinese New Year, it should be over now. "

"It would be great if it really passed." Gan sighed, showing frustration.

"Let's talk about the difficulties first. You come to me because you think I can solve your difficulties. So it has nothing to do with housework? Is it something outside?"

"The princess is wise."

Gan glanced at the servants standing in the room, Ning Peilan saw it, and waved them away.

"Speak now."

"I want to sell my stake in the farm."

"What?! Sell farm shares? Should I sell a little bit or quit completely?!"

"Quit, quit completely, sell everything."

"What's wrong with you?"

"I'm short of money, it's nothing else, so I really can't support it anymore, so let's quit cashing out."

"Didn't you hear that Gu Xu has been earning a lot of money since he was valued? I see people giving gifts to you Gu Xu all day long. Why did you suddenly ask you to sell your shares? What about the money? Has he got into a bad habit?"

"Where is there any money? The mother-in-law took away all the money and stuff, saying that it was brother and sister-in-law who added makeup to my sister."

"What?! What kind of words is this?! Ask her to take away all the money and stuff and not leave any for you?!"

"I kept a little, and she was afraid of being said behind her back that she was too greedy, but what was left to me was the change for daily expenses, most of which was in her hands, and she asked me to pay Gu Chan a few days ago. It's a gift from my sister-in-law to my sister-in-law, but last night I received a note from my third uncle, saying that the farm is about to usher in a new wave of investment, and I really have no money and can't keep going."

As Gan said, thinking about the quarrel last night, he couldn't help feeling sad, bowed his head and began to cry.
