Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

After listening to the conversation between the father and daughter, Su was so shocked that her eyes widened.

Hearing Gu Xunwei say this, she was the first to speak, "Wei'er, for such a shameless villain, you should drive him out and let him freeze to death or starve to death, hum..."

She was thinking of what Xie Cheng'an and the others had done to her daughter and the Gu family. Such a vicious villain could definitely do what Wei'er described in her dream.

After hearing what Su said, Gu Xunwei quickly turned back to touch her belly, "Mother, you are the kindest person. If you saw him like this, you would not be able to bear it. What's more, now that my little brother is about to be born, it can be considered as a blessing for him."

Su thought of the baby in her belly, and Gu Xunwei had been reminding her every day not to let her emotions change too quickly, as it would affect the baby's personality, so she had no choice but to nod.

"Okay, you are right." After saying this, Su scratched Gu Xunwei's nose.

Gu Ziyu felt relieved after hearing this. Now when he had nothing to do, he would go to Wangyu Tower to drink tea. Seeing that Wangyu Tower was doing a booming business, his heart felt sweeter than drinking honey.

After the last incident, many people already knew that the owner behind Wangyu Tower was actually the Gu family. In order to protect Gu Xunwei, Gu Ziyu had to come forward himself to confirm this rumor.

The Gu family’s incense-making tradition has lasted for hundreds of years, so the Wangyulou brand has been given a layer of reliability.

"Weier, since you think it's nothing, that's fine. But if that guy dares to come again, you must tell father and let him handle it."

While he was relieved, he did not forget to give another reminder. He looked at his wife and daughter lovingly, feeling extremely satisfied.

If the second child is born in two months, the family will be even more lively and my life will have a purpose.

Gu Xunwei nodded, "The Imperial Observatory said that this year may be a cold winter. It's not certain whether Xie Chengan can survive it."

Her words were not groundless. In her previous life, she had a particularly deep impression that the entire winter was covered with snow. There was a small snowfall every three days and a large snowfall every five days, and it snowed for half the winter.

If he really had no place to live, who knows what the consequences would be.

It was because of these things that she asked Bai Zhi to give him some silver.

"What's the matter, Miss Gu, do you still have feelings for Xie Chengan?" A voice suddenly came from outside the door, startling everyone in the room.

Then the door was pushed open, and it was Li Junhao who walked in with Sang Mo, followed by Xiao Fuzi, who was holding a tray in his hands.

It seems that he came to deliver something.

After not seeing him for a few days, Gu Xunwei's eyes immediately lit up when she saw him, and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

"What are you talking about, Second Prince? Wei'er and Xie Cheng'an no longer have any relationship, you can't joke like that."

When Su heard what Li Junhao said, he was the first to disagree and refuted it without caring about the other party's identity.

Gu Xunwei naturally knew that he was just joking, but hearing Su say this, her heart was warmed. Her mother always puts her first, so how could she not be moved?

"That's right, Auntie. I just made a slip of the tongue. Please forgive me, Uncle, Auntie, and Miss Gu."

Li Junhao was not arrogant at all, and this time he seemed to give people a completely different impression than before.

Although he had never been arrogant before, he still had a kind of superior calmness and aura, but today he was completely relaxed.

After hearing Li Junhao's apology, Gu Ziyu waved his hands and said, "Second Prince, you are too polite. Your aunt meant..."

When he said this, he suddenly found something wrong. How could the Second Prince call his wife aunt? This was not allowed. There was a difference between the monarch and his subjects, not to mention that he was just a merchant.

So he quickly changed his words and said, "My wife didn't mean to blame Your Highness."

After he finished speaking, he quickly looked at Gu Xunwei, hoping that he could say a few words to explain for the Su family.

Li Junhao also glanced at Gu Xunwei, but still said to Gu Ziyu, "Uncle, I have now handed over my military power and completely moved out of the palace. I didn't bring anything else with me, only this."

After he finished speaking, he waved to Xiao Fuzi to take two steps forward and reached out to lift the red cloth covering the tray.

I saw several twisted, yellowish, unidentified objects placed on the red velvet cloth on the tray.

Su took a puzzled look at it, then immediately looked at Gu Ziyu, guessing that it was probably a spice ingredient.

But Gu Ziyu also had a look of confusion on his face. He stared at the objects on the tray very seriously. Then he frowned and picked up a small piece and put it to his nose to smell it.

After sniffing it several times, I was still confused and didn't understand what it was, so I had to ask,

"Your Highness, what is this?"

There is a faint fragrance on it, which seems to be some orchid scent, but it is different, and it seems to be the root of some plant.

Li Junhao did not answer immediately, but looked at Gu Xunwei to see if he could know this.

"Iris root is spicy, warm in nature, and somewhat toxic."

Gu Xunwei only took a few quick glances and identified it based on the shape and taste.

"Doctors use it to eliminate stagnation and kill insects, break up blood stasis and promote water circulation, and detoxify. These effects make iris root very effective in treating a variety of diseases such as food stagnation, abdominal pain caused by roundworms, sore throat, and swelling caused by injuries."

"However, irises are planted in autumn and will only grow and bloom after a three-year dormancy period. They must be manually picked, peeled, sliced, and dried before they can be used as medicine. After about another three years, the main aromatic components of iris roots will be formed."

This is also the reason why so many perfume-making families in the Great Chu Kingdom have never used iris root as the raw material for making perfume. This spice is really too precious and rare.

Not only the planting and preservation process, but also the growing environment has many requirements. If the requirements are not met, the medicinal efficacy will be lost by half, and as for the aroma, it is even more impossible.

The pieces that Li Junhao brought were the best of iris roots. Not only were they large in size, but they were also well preserved, with a golden color tinged throughout the brown-yellow color.

But think about it, how could something coming out of the palace be an ordinary item?

Li Junhao nodded, "Miss Gu is really amazing. A few years ago, Imperial Physician Zhang used it as medicine to treat throat problems for me and my eleventh brother. Father then found a few pieces from the owner of the Medicine Valley.

I didn’t expect that when I entered the warehouse a few days ago, I found a faint fragrance that seemed different from what I smelled before, so I brought it out.”
