The evil first wife who wears a book, and the future first assistant wants to kill me every day

Having returned to Lin'an to settle down, Mengrao began to prepare medicine for Gu Changling to drink in advance to recuperate his body and make it easier to plant gu.

Yunwei gave Mr. Xu the moongrass soaked in medicine to study.

When Mengrao learned that the moongrass was poisonous, she scolded Lu Xingyi and gave all the moongrass to Mr. Xu to study.

Although Qingsi can swallow poison, if she uses too much moongrass, who can guarantee that she will always be fine.

Mr. Xu got a new poisonous species, just like a child getting a new toy, it was very novel anyway.

From time to time, he and Mengrao would study together, and sometimes he would even go over to watch Mengrao cultivate Gu worms, which he enjoyed endlessly.

In order to withstand the cold poison more easily, Yun Chao has been practicing kung fu hard recently to enhance his resistance.

Gu Changling also started to get busy.

It has been raining here in Lin'an a few days ago. I heard from the prefect Qian that there was a problem with the drainage channels in some places and the mulberry fields were flooded.

They must immediately take corresponding measures to clear the ditches and preserve the mulberry fields.

Yunwei also became busy, because Gu Changling said that Ruo Yu's marriage should not be postponed any longer, so he simply arranged it for her in the past few days.

So Yunwei has been busy these days buying a dowry for Ruoyu, choosing an auspicious day, buying a mansion.

After all, they only live in Lin'an temporarily, and there is no need to buy a large mansion.

So Mrs. Qian said very enthusiastically that she would get married in Qian's Mansion. Meiyuan was freed up for the young couple to live temporarily, and they would buy a mansion after they returned to Beijing.

As for getting married, she had already made arrangements for Ruoyu to find a godmother with her good friend Mrs. Hu. She would move there tonight and get married tomorrow at the Hu Mansion.

Yunwei was grateful to Mrs. Qian for her kindness and took her hand to thank her.

Mrs. Qian has a cheerful personality, "Between you and me, we always say thank you and then forget about it."

Yunwei stopped talking and silently remembered Mrs. Qian's favor.

The customs of getting married here in Lin'an are different. Mrs. Qian simplified the complex process, but some steps cannot be omitted.

Tomorrow is the auspicious day chosen, August [-]. The two of them were discussing the details of tomorrow's wedding banquet. Caixia came over with afternoon snacks and snow fungus and lotus seed soup to serve the mistress.

Caixia Shiqi, looks like Xiaojiabiyu. She is not particularly outstanding, but she is liked by Mr. Qian.

But she didn't disrespect her mistress or show off her power just because she was raised as a concubine.

On the contrary, as before, he performed his duties diligently and came to serve him every day at dawn and dusk, making it impossible for anyone to make a single mistake.

Mrs. Qian did not give her any hard time, and motioned for her to put down her things and said, "I'm busy here, I don't need you to wait on me. Go back and rest."

Caixia then respectfully resigned.

Yun Wei clearly felt that Mrs. Qian was indifferent to her.

She couldn't help but remember that a few days ago, she was afraid that Mrs. Qian would be depressed and wanted to comfort her.

Who knew that Mrs. Qian said: "It's just a concubine, I don't care about it. Since ancient times, I don't care about any man who doesn't have three wives and four concubines, as long as the mistress of the Qian Mansion is me."

Having said that, her husband is flirting with other women and staying out all night. No matter how generous Mrs. Qian is, she must feel uncomfortable.

This kind of thing is like drinking water. Yunwei, an outsider, didn't want to say more, so she changed the subject.

After taking a bite of the lotus seed soup, he praised: "This snow fungus and lotus seed soup is very good."

It's soft and sticky, with just the right amount of sweetness. It's even served cold, which shows Caixia's thoughtfulness.

Mrs. Qian heard her praise and said with a smile: "This is Tongjiang's snow fungus. It has a thick texture and tender meat, and is chewy. The sweet soup is even thicker."

"The princess doesn't know that Tongjiang has four distinct seasons, a short frost period, and many clouds and fog. The basswood and snow fungus there are outstanding."

Yunwei nodded. This snow fungus was good to eat. She suddenly wanted to have a dessert, "Then the house also needs snow fungus. I want to ask you for some and make some sweet soup for Mr. Gu to try."

Mrs. Qian agreed, "Of course I have it. I'll ask the kitchen to deliver it to you later."

I heard Mrs. Qian say that snow ears are rare, but Yunwei didn't take advantage of them and exchanged them for golden bird's nests.

Mrs. Qian knew her temper, so she accepted it happily.

After discussing the wedding banquet with Mrs. Qian, it was already sunset.

When Yunwei returned to Cuihe Garden, Caiyue brought soaked snow fungus. It was white and tender in color, with large and loose ear flowers and thick ear flesh. It was really good.

Caiyue also thoughtfully sent lotus seeds, red dates and the like.

But she wanted to make snow fungus and milk soup, so she asked Ruhua to go to the kitchen to get some fresh milk.

A wealthy family like the Qian Mansion naturally has no shortage of milk.

When Gu Changling returned to Cuihe Garden, the sky was dark and the moon had climbed up.

Because tomorrow is Ruoyu's wedding day, red silk is swaying in the corridor and red lights are hung high to illuminate the way home.

But in Gu Changling's eyes, the rows of lanterns were not as bright as the lamp in the east room.

That lamp was lit specifically for myself.

Opening the door, there was a beautiful woman sitting under the candlelight, wearing a moonlight autumn gown, with her black hair disheveled, as if she was holding a letter and reading it.

Seeing his figure, her charming eyebrows raised, her eyes brighter than the lights, "You're back."

Gu Changling wanted to hug her, but she was covered in moisture and was afraid of catching her cold, so he could only hold back, "Well, why haven't you rested yet?"

Yunwei put down the letter and actively helped him change his clothes, "I'm waiting for you. Ruoyu's wedding will be held tomorrow. I'll wait for you to come back to discuss it. Is there anything else I want to buy?"

Gu Changling took off his coat and handed it to her, "When you are away from home, keep everything simple. You can make up for it when you get back to the capital. Don't overwork yourself."

Yunwei hung up his clothes, "No matter how simple it is, Ruoyu cannot lack what others should have."

After all, he is his only relative alive.

Gu Changling held her hand and said, "You have worked hard these past few days."

"It's not hard, I'm happy doing this."

Yunwei pulled him to sit down, "Have you eaten yet? I'll ask Rushi to prepare some midnight snack for you."

"No, I ate with Magistrate Qian outside."

Gu Changling glanced at the pile of thick letters on the table and asked curiously: "Whose letter is it?"

Yun Wei immediately showed it to him happily, "It's a letter from Jin Yan. The courier sent it overnight. I just received it."

Gu Changling took the letter and said, "Jinyan?"

"Oh, she is Mr. Su's legitimate daughter and Sun Miao's former fiancée. She is a beautiful and smart woman, and she is a master of embroidery. Because of the Sun Miao incident, she was in trouble for a while, and she met me again."

"I have a very good relationship with her, and we even opened an embroidery shop together."

The letter was from Jinyan announcing the good news that Lan Xin Embroidery Village had been opened.

Not long after it opened, Gu Xiu's order has already been received three months later, and business is better than expected.

In the letter, Jinyan said that Fangru helped a lot, promoted her at various banquets, and took great care of them. Jinyan was very grateful.

Yunwei discovered that Jinyan called Sister Fangru "Fangru" in the letter, which shows that the two have a close relationship.

In the original work, Jin Yan and Sister Fangru have similar temperaments, and they are inseparable from officials and businessmen. They often gather to discuss their respective opinions and discuss together, just like a modern meeting.

Unexpectedly, the relationship is as good as ever.

With Jinyan's brains and the help of Fangru's circle of ladies, business will naturally be worry-free.

Yunwei always praised Jinyan as a natural business person, and she would definitely introduce her to him when she returned to the capital.

Gu Changling quickly scanned the letter. Except for some things about Xiuzhuang, the rest were the recent events in the capital and secret conversations between women and girls.

He folded the letter and said with a smile: "I think I should have met the smart Jinyan girl you mentioned."

Yunwei was confused: "Where did you meet me?"

"Wanchuan County."

“When did Jinyan go to Wanchuan County!!”

Gu Changling paused for a moment and said, "I went with His Highness King Qi."

"You forgot that I met King Qi once. At that time, there was a woman with him."
