Gu Yunxi also knew that the eldest uncle of the He family wanted to buy a house, so he smiled and said, "Okay, we will pass by the county town anyway, I will go and take a look at the iron bars."

Tiepi and Tiegan still live in the house next to the bun shop. The two of them help He Jiaxing make buns and they are very diligent.

Hu Zi and Monkey followed their family to the capital, and now they came back with them. I guess Hu Zi and Monkey missed their previous friends very much.

On the fifth day of the New Year, the family had breakfast, packed enough food and drinks, and hitched up the carriage to set off.

The village chief's family all came and personally sent them off. Zhongsheng hid behind the village chief's wife. Seeing that the Lu family was about to leave, he blushed and imitated the village chief's wife, waving to Gu Yunxi: "Aunt Yunxi, have a safe journey."

Gu Yunxi smiled and replied: "Middle school student, study hard and become a useful person in the future."

Although Zhongsheng didn't quite understand what a "useful" person meant, he roughly knew that Aunt Yunxi meant for him to study hard and be a good person!

Zhongsheng nodded vigorously, watching the carriage gradually disappear on the village road, the consciousness of learning penetrated deep into his soul.

When Gu Yunxi and his family arrived in the town, they first went to pick up Wang Jiaozhen and Wenwen, and then went out to Yang County to look for iron sheets and iron rods.

He Jiaxing and Xiao Wei were busy tidying up the shop. They were going to reopen for business on the sixth day of the New Year. They came here today to wash all the steamers, pots, bowls, and basins.

He Jiaxing and Xiao Wei were very happy to see Gu Yunxi and his family.

"Aunt, uncle, are you going to the capital?" He Jiaxing couldn't help but ask when he saw several carriages following behind.

He Feng smiled and nodded: "Yes, we are going to Beijing. Achuan doesn't have much vacation time, so we have to rush back to Beijing as soon as possible."

"Jiaxing, have you seen the house your father mentioned years ago? Have you found a suitable one?"

He Jiaxing smiled and nodded: "Yesterday, my father and I went to see a few houses and found a suitable one. The price is also within our budget. After discussing it at home, it might be that small house."

The house is not big, just a few rooms, but it has a good location and is not far from the steamed bun shop. He Jiaxing is very satisfied with it and his eyes light up when he mentions the house.

Seeing that they had a plan for doing things, He Feng smiled and nodded, "That's good, but when you join, I probably won't be able to come back, so write to us in advance and let us know."

Although she, as an aunt, cannot come back, the gift has already been delivered.

He Jiaxing nodded hurriedly after hearing this: "Okay, okay, after we buy the house, I'll have someone calculate an auspicious date for moving in, and I'll have someone write a letter to my aunt as soon as possible."

While the few people were talking, Hu Zi and Hou Zi were also talking to Tie Pi and Tie Gang, chatting about recent events.

Gu Yunxi also walked over and asked more questions with a smile. She said that the iron rod was brought to the bun shop by her, so she had to take care of him.

"Iron Sheet, Iron Rod, this is the New Year's red envelope I prepared for you, take it."

"If you have any questions while working here, you can always find Butler He, or ask Butler He to write to me."

During the year that Tiepi Tiegan worked in the bun shop, he grew rapidly in height and is now a half-grown boy, as tall as Gu Yunxi's shoulders, and speaks with a slightly hoarse voice.

Seeing Gu Yunxi handing them a red seal, Tiepi Tiegan couldn't help but tear up: "Young Madam, it's been a long time since anyone gave us a red seal."

Hu Zi and Monkey also wiped their tears. They were orphans and had no home. How could anyone give them a red envelope?

In other words, the young lady is kind-hearted and treats them as family members.

Gu Yunxi comforted them softly: "Work hard, learn something, and when you grow up, you will get married and have children, and you will live a happy life."

Seeing that it was getting late, the Gao family's servants came to report that the Gao family's masters were ready. The Lu family then set off again and headed for the capital with the Gao family.

After two days, on the sixth night of the New Year, they finally arrived in the capital.

Mo San had already instructed his servants to clean the masters' houses spotlessly, and the kitchen was also stocked with hot meals, so Gu Yunxi and the others could eat hot meals as soon as they returned home.

After dinner, he returned to the house and took a comfortable hot bath. Gu Yunxi watched the children fall asleep before he went to bed.

When he woke up the next morning, Lu Jianchuan had already gone on duty.

The shop opened on the seventh day of the first lunar month and Wang Jiaozhen was already busy. She had nothing to do, so she simply called Mo San over and asked him about what happened in the mansion while she was not in the capital.

Mo San answered one by one, and Gu Yunxi listened and nodded from time to time.

"Well, Mo San, you are getting better and better now!"

"We were all in our hometown during the New Year, so we didn't give you any red envelopes. You can take these silver coins and distribute them to them." Gu Yunxi pointed to the small change and strings of copper coins placed aside.

"Oh, yes, and the farmers in the farm will also be rich."

Mo San suppressed his excitement and nodded quickly to agree.

"Go out and call Xiao Cui to come in and find me." Gu Yunxi waved his hand and Mo San retreated.

After a while, Xiao Cui came in. As soon as she entered the room, she smiled and said to Gu Yunxi, "Madam, you are really a prophet. I just came back and heard a great news."

On the way back to Beijing yesterday, the young lady asked her to go out and find out if there was any gossip in the capital recently.

After having breakfast in the morning, she immediately went to the busiest vegetable market in the capital, and then went to the most crowded teahouse to listen to stories. Wow, she really heard a lot of gossip.

Gu Yunxi looked at Xiao Cui's sly smile and couldn't help but smile. He asked, "Xiao Cui, what did you hear? Tell me about it."

Xiao Cui lowered her voice and said, "Madam, I heard that the one who bullied Marquis Qin's wife before was severely reprimanded by the emperor on New Year's Eve and ordered to go to Fangling!"

Gu Yunxi took a deep breath and exclaimed, "Are you talking about...Princess Pingyang?"

Xiao Cui nodded: "I heard about it in the teahouse, and I secretly took a detour to pass by the Princess's mansion. I saw that the door was closed, which was completely different from the bustling people coming in and out in the past."

In the past, the eldest princess loved the hustle and bustle of the city and often invited noble ladies from the capital to visit her mansion. Therefore, the door of the mansion was often open and there was a lot of noise from sedan chairs coming in and out.

Now, Xiao Cui looked for a long time but didn't see a single person. She absolutely didn't believe that there was no ghost!

Gu Yunxi narrowed her eyes, she was really curious. What on earth did the eldest princess do to make the emperor directly order her to go to Fangling?

"Xiao Cui, please help me prepare the sedan chair. We are going to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion to find Granny Dong today." Gu Yunxi suddenly ordered with a smile.

Xiao Cui bowed and hurried to prepare gifts.
