Marry a concubine? Reborn to move out of the mansion and marry a general

On the second day after arriving in Qingshan City, the shopkeepers of the Gu family in Xishu came to pay their respects.

Xishu is thousands of miles away from the capital, and it is not easy to meet the boss once. Everyone has brought out their lifelong skills in order to show off in front of the next leader.

All kinds of businesses, rice and grain shops, medicine shops, clinics, cloth shops, ready-made clothes shops, inns, restaurants, carriage and horse shops...

There were fifty or sixty people who came. Those who were not from Qingshan City had been waiting in the inn for four or five days.

This inn belongs to the Gu family. It has been closed to visitors these days and is only busy receiving its own people.

Gu Feiwan was so busy that he had to calculate the time even for his meals. Ah Li was bored watching from the side and wanted to jump up the tree to rob the bird's nest several times.

Seeing that she was really not interested in the Gu family's business, Gu Feiwan had no choice but to let her go, and sent four maids and four guards to follow.

He warned me: "You are not a child anymore, so you can't make trouble anymore. But if you are bullied by others, don't suffer any loss. The general and I will support you in everything!"

Ali happily went out with the banknotes in his pocket. Gu Feiwan saw him off to the door. Looking at the endless stream of people on the street, he said with emotion:

"It's so nice to be like Ahri, carefree!"

Qingshuang also had a look of envy on her face. She also wanted to go out and play. She felt listless after facing those shopkeepers for half a day!

Nanny Zhu advised: "The more capable you are, the more work you should do. If there were no capable people like you, how could Miss Ali be free from worries?"

Gu Feiwan's lips curled up: "Mammy is always able to comfort people!"

Nanny Zhu followed with a smile and said, "It's not that I can comfort the young lady, it's that the young lady has great ambitions, why does she need me to say more?"

In fact, Gu Feiwan was indeed tired, but after meeting so many shopkeepers, listening to them talk about Xishu's business strategies and results, and then looking through the account books, what was recorded in black and white was the wisdom and hard work of two generations of the Gu family, as well as the contributions of the shopkeepers in front of him.

All these made Gu Feiwan feel infinite energy in his heart!

She stands on the shoulders of the giant Gu family and is determined to make the Gu family more prosperous!

"Master, if you have enough time, can I take you around Qingshan City?"

The person who was speaking was Cheng Sen, the head manager of the Gu family in Xishu. He was over forty years old, and if he was not dressed in silk and satin, people would regard him as a vagrant!

Cheng Sen is from Qingshan City. His ancestors have lived in Qingshan City for generations. His ancestors were woodcutters in the mountains, and gradually became hunters.

A few generations ago, by chance, a man from the underworld was saved in the mountains. The man from the underworld taught the ancestor of the Cheng family a set of boxing techniques, saying that it could be used for both self-defense and as a skill.

If there is no firewood to chop or animals to hunt in the mountains, you can go down the mountain and work as a security guard.

Cheng Sen's ancestor was a simple and honest man, and he thought what the Jianghu guest said made a lot of sense.

As a human being, it is always good to have more ways to survive in this world!

Therefore, he advised his descendants to practice boxing well, which not only could help them strengthen their bodies but also change their way of life when necessary.

By the time of Cheng Sen's father's generation, he had mastered the boxing skills to perfection, but he no longer chopped wood, hunted animals, or worked as a security guard. Instead, he became a groceries seller who went from street to street.

With his kung fu skills and his honesty, Cheng Sen's father was very successful in selling goods in the mixed area of ​​Western Shu.

But probably because of the frequent migrations, the Cheng family never bought a shop. Cheng Sen’s father said that if you have a skill, you can make a living anywhere. If you buy a shop, you have to take root in one place. If the land is ruined, you can’t survive!

Later, Gu Yechen made friends with Cheng Sen's father, and the two got to know each other through fighting. Cheng Sen's father managed the business in Xishu for the Gu family. Later, when he was old, this position was handed over to Cheng Sen.

Cheng Sen, the head of the Gu family, has been in office for more than 20 years.

Cheng Sen was not as lenient as his father. He was ruthless and clearly distinguished between rewards and punishments. When he was ruthless, he would severely punish even the people around him who made small mistakes.

Therefore, the shop owners in Western Shu were completely submissive under Cheng Sen's rule, and none of them dared to act presumptuously!

But at this moment, he stood behind Gu Feiwan with his back bowed, looking very respectful.

Gu Feiwan nodded: "Then let's do it tomorrow. With Master Cheng leading the way, it will save me a lot of trouble."

Cheng Sen bent his back even lower: "It's my honor!"

The two smiled at each other, and when they returned to the lobby of the inn, the shop owners standing there had a little more fear in their eyes.

At dusk, the inn prepared a sumptuous feast and wine, and all the shopkeepers came forward to toast, naturally speaking auspicious and joyful words.

"I haven't congratulated the master on the birth of twins yet. This is a small gift I prepared for the young masters. I hope the master won't despise it!"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people showed annoyance in their eyes!

They also used this as an excuse to prepare gifts, but they didn't expect that someone else got there first!

"Master, I have a gift for you too!"

"Boss, this is what I prepared carefully, please take a look!"

There was a lot of noise and before Gu Feiwan could say anything, Cheng Sen coughed first, and the place immediately fell silent!

The shopkeepers looked at each other in bewilderment. Some were silent, some took two steps back, and some had expectations in their eyes.

Gu Feiwan seemed unaware, still smiling, and raised his hand to let Qingshuang accept the gift:

"I can't hold my liquor, so I'll just take a sip and thank all the uncles and aunts for their kindness on behalf of the children!"

Qingshuang brought the two little girls around and kept thanking them, and the scene became lively again.

The moon was already high in the sky when the banquet ended. Some shopkeepers who lived near Qingshan City said goodbye and went back home that night.

After all, the account books have been handed in and the gifts have been given. If I continue to refuse to leave, am I going to have to look at Cheng Sen's face even more?

The inn was almost half empty. When Ning Weizhou came back, he saw Gu Feiwan propping up her head, flipping through a book under the lamp, with a faint blush on her cheeks.

"Have you been drinking?" Ning Weizhou went over and touched her face; "Have you drunk the hangover soup?"

Gu Feiwan put down the book and stretched: "I've drunk a lot earlier, but the wine here is much more overbearing than in Jiangnan. I only took a sip and almost got drunk!"

Ning Weizhou pinched her face with amusement: "Do you still think this is the fruit wine brewed by Madam Chen? This is a real strong liquor. An ordinary man can get drunk and lose his ability to touch anything after drinking a pot of it. Do you dare to try it?"

Gu Feiwan leaned over and said with a sweet smile, "Fortunately, Cheng Sen has good eyesight and blocked those toasts for me."

"Of course. I told him that no matter who got you drunk, I will settle the score with him!"

Gu Feiwan blinked her eyes, looking surprised: "My husband has been hooking up with my chief shopkeeper for a long time? What does he want to do? Is he trying to seize power?"

Seeing that she was enjoying her performance, Ning Weizhou also said, "Yes, I want to seize power. When I return to Beijing, I will resign from my position as general and take over the Gu family's business!"

Gu Feiwan glanced over, her eyes moving and charming: "My husband wants to seize power, and I am his shortcut!"

Ning Weizhou was full of vigor and vitality. The two of them had no misunderstandings and agreed to stay together for life. At that time, their love was deep, so how could they withstand such teasing!

"My wife is right. I will take this shortcut for you!"
