my grandmother

Chapter 158

Before Li Xiaonan could react, the bag of fresh meat mooncakes was pinched by Gu Yan's two fingers, lifted high up, and held it above her head.

Li Xiaonan drooped her shoulders, lowered her head slightly, and looked carefully at Wan Qing.

Wan Qing's shoulders tightened, her head couldn't be lowered any more.

Gu Yan squeezed the moon cake bag and shook it twice, and threw it to Shi Gun from the air, pulled out the folding fan and hit Li Xiaonan's shoulder, pushing her to turn around.

"Go in and tell me what's going on."

After taking two steps, Gu Yan turned to look at Shi Gun, and nodded Wan Qing, Shi Gun hurriedly bowed and nodded.

Li Xiaonan was pushed all the way by Gu Yan's folding fan, and entered a warm pavilion located in the middle of the hill.

The Nuan Pavilion was fully furnished, and the woman on duty saw Gu Yan coming in, and immediately started to get busy.It seems that this is a place that Gu Yan often comes to.

Li Xiaonan entered the Nuan Pavilion, found a chair in the corner and sat down, looked at Gu Yan, and prepared that a dead pig would not be afraid of boiling water.

"Tell me, what's that big bag? What's going on?" Gu Yan sat next to Li Xiaonan, shook out the folding fan, and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Your kitchen makes fresh meat mooncakes, the smell wafts away, it's so fragrant..."

"The smell of the kitchen can't go away no matter what, let's put it another way." Gu Yan leaned on the back of the chair and raised Erlang's legs.

"It smelled from the person who delivered the lunch at noon."

"Well, that's a good statement, let's continue." Gu Yan praised exaggeratedly.

"I just asked Wan Qing to bring me some, that's all." Li Xiaonan finished her sentence.

"Stone roll!" Gu Yan shouted.

Stone Rolled in response.

"What did Wanqing say?"

"Wan Qing said: Ms. Li didn't eat much for lunch. She thought that there were very few snacks in the car. She was afraid that Ms. Li would get hungry on the way, so she took some fresh meat mooncakes." Shi Gun answered with his hands down.

"It's because I'm hungry, I didn't eat enough at noon, and when guests come to the door, I have to make them full, right, the most basic way of hospitality." Li Xiaonan answered immediately.

"You know that you are a guest, and you know how to treat guests. Just now, in the second door, you were holding the bag of things, you should thank me generously, this is the way of a guest and a host.

"What did you look like just now? You don't look like a guest at all, you are obviously a thief!" Gu Yan pointed at Li Xiaonan with his folding fan, and taught him a lesson.

Li Xiaonan choked on what he said.

"You are my guest, a distinguished guest of this other industry, what do you want to eat, what do you want, just tell me generously.

"It's not your fault. Wan Qing!" Gu Yan patted the folding fan.

Wan Qing followed the sound, lowered her head and lowered her eyes.

"She doesn't understand the rules, don't you? I asked you to treat guests for me. Is this how you treat guests? Are you partnering with guests to become a thief?

"How to treat guests and give gifts in the mansion, you have never seen or handled it before, why don't you ask the steward for advice?"

Gu Yan snorted, "Send the word, two months' money will be deducted."

Li Xiaonan raised her hand to cover her face.

As expected, Wan Qing's monthly payment was not guaranteed.

Gu Yan glanced sideways at Li Xiaonan who was looking sad, then at Wan Qing who was downcast, and snorted.

These two stupid girls are as stupid as ever!

"How is the book?" Gu Yan patted the folding fan on the high table next to Li Xiaonan.

"It's okay." Li Xiaonan stood up dejectedly, pressing the armrest of the chair, "I should go back."

"It's late, let's go after dinner, I'll take you back." Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan, and sighed, "Wan Qing doesn't care about the little monthly money, she is not short of money."

"She cares a lot! Who doesn't care about the monthly money?" Li Xiaonan looked at Gu Yan speechlessly.

"She was indeed at fault in this matter. The crown prince will come over in a few days, and the whole property will give reward money, and Shi Gun will give her a credit." Gu Yan wanted to sigh again.

"What do you want to eat?" Seeing that Li Xiaonan's complexion improved obviously, Gu Yan asked.

"Didn't you say that I like to eat anything delicious?" Li Xiaonan sat back.

"Am I wrong?" Gu Yan leaned forward and asked.

"Then I want to eat delicious food." Li Xiaonan replied.

Gu Yan tilted his head slightly, looked at Li Xiaonan who was all awkward, raised his hand and screened all the servants away.

"I just came back from Linhai Town, something happened in Linhai Town."

"What's the matter?" Li Xiaonan raised her head and asked.

"Master Zou of the Chengzi Gang died, and he said it was Ma Feng, do you know Ma Ma Feng?" Gu Yan looked at Li Xiaonan.

Li Xiaonan nodded, "The way to die in a romantic way, is it really instant?"

"Smart! I have already had people watching the important figures of the gang on the pier."

Gu Yan leaned over, and Li Xiaonan also leaned forward, and the two almost touched their heads.

"The murderer has been caught, but now is not the time to throw it out." Gu Yan said happily.

"He was really killed! Who is it?" Li Xiaonan sighed.

"What do you think?" Gu Yan smiled.

"Marine tax department?"

"Jiangnan Silk Head Office." Gu Yan laughed.

"I read those files, and it said that when Taizong first established the country, the silk industry was just evaluating the grade of raw silk. There were no big ones, and there were small ones everywhere. Later, they were connected bit by bit.

"Well, I have inquired about the current silk industry. It is said that if each weaving workshop wants to add a loom, it must first obtain a quota from the industry."

Li Xiaonan sighed.

"Now, the grain store is still the rule of Taizong's time." Gu Yan's expression was a little gloomy.

These guilds are just details, and the entire empire, compared with the Qingming of Taizong's time, is too turbid. Every time he and the prince talk about it, they are extremely sad and resentful.

"It's all like this. When the country was first founded, everything was smashed and rebuilt. Slowly, it went back to the past. It was like a vase that was smashed, piece by piece, and then stuck together to return to its original appearance. Shatter it again."

Li Xiaonan paused, and laughed dryly, "I mean, although it looks the same as before, there are actually changes. Every time it gets better, the mouth of the bottle gets bigger, and the people in the bottle feel better."

"Where there is founding, there will be decline. There is nothing to say. The crown prince and I just want to do some things." Gu Yan laughed.

"That Mr. Zou is going to investigate the murder case?" Li Xiaonan lowered her voice and changed the topic.

"Well, it's useless to make any arrangements. The head wife of Zou's family reported to the officials, saying that the concubine murdered the head of Zou. I handed it over to Huang Xianzhou, who is very good at judging cases." Gu Yan laughed.

"Will people still die in the future?" Li Xiaonan asked in a low voice.

"Yes, there will be more and more similar killings." Gu Yan glanced at Li Xiaonan sideways.

Li Xiaonan sighed.

Gu Yan leaned towards Li Xiaonan, and said slowly, "I thought you would say that human life is at stake."

"Human life is at stake, but." Li Xiaonan paused, looked at Gu Yan, and then said slowly, "There is no way, right? Xiaoci and Daci."

Gu Yan stared at Li Xiaonan intently, and then laughed for a moment.
