Gong Xingchen settled the accounts and the business of the cloth shop has steadily increased.

Many people in Shangzhi’s skin beauty restaurant are interested in cooperation and hope to join.

Gong Xingchen collected their information and information to ensure that they were honest, then circled them with a pen, made a new list, and then wrote to someone and asked them to come over to discuss.

After the busy schedule, it was already the end of the year. Gong Xingchen stretched his waist and felt his hungry stomach. He saw food boxes placed on the table.

He walked over and uncovered the lid, saw the snack inside, frowned, closed the lid, carried it back to the kitchen, and found some food to cushion your belly.

When the servant saw Gong Xingchen come out of the house, he quickly took the food box from him, "Second Master, are you going to see Miss Shang?"

"Is Zhizhi coming?" Gong Xingchen immediately moved to the front yard.

The servant called out, "Second Young Master, Miss Shang and Lord Xue live in the yard next to Miss Gu."

"Did they live here?" Gong Xingchen turned his pace, went to Shangzhi's yard, stepped into the yard, and said loudly: "Zhizhi, my second brother is hungry, you can make a bowl of noodles for my second brother."

After taking a shower, Shang Zhi heard Gong Xingchen's very penetrating voice, and stood at the door with his hair wrapped around him. Gong Xingchen stood in front of Shang Zhi, looking at her long dripping hair, and palsy in the chair with a weak head and a wave of his hand: "Just forget it after taking a shower."

Shang Zhi raised his eyebrows and said, "Ms. Gu sent you a midnight snack, isn't it enough for you to eat?"

"How dare I eat her things?" Gong Xingchen pursed his mouth and raised his hand to pour water on the teapot. The teapot was empty, and his eyes became increasingly resentful, "Zhizhi, don't you mind taking an extra bath?"

When Shang Zhi saw Gong Xingchen looking at her with a gaze, he thought that he had not eaten the snacks made by Gu Yingying, and went to the kitchen to make a bowl of noodles.

"Wait."

Gong Xingchen's eyes lit up and suddenly became lively. He followed Shang Zhi to the kitchen, "Zhizhi, do you want to make me spring noodles? I miss this taste. You make spring noodles for your second brother, and I will give you a surprise."

"Are you scared?" Shang Zhi glanced at him.

Gong Xingchen opened his eyes wide, "Is the second brother such a person?"

Shangzhi didn't comment, "The process of Yangchun noodle is complicated and there is no fresh soup. I'll make you a bowl of plain noodles."

"Lying an egg."

"good."

"Add two more vegetables."

"Do you still want to stir-fry a plate of peanuts?"

"Is that OK?" Gong Xingchen looked at Shang Zhi expectantly.

"Can't!"

Gong Xingchen held a bowl of fragrant noodles, lying on two eggs, covered with green vegetables, and felt very satisfied.

Shang Zhi finally stir-fry a bowl of salt-baked peanuts for Gong Xingchen.

Gong Xingchen squatted in the kitchen, drank a bowl of noodles with a few bites, and returned to the yard with a plate of peanuts and ate them as snacks.

"Shen Qiu is in the palace." Shang Zhi suddenly said something, which made Gong Xingchen, who looked leisurely and contented, almost choked by peanuts, "What did you say? Who is in the palace?"

Shang Zhi looked at Gong Xingchen's frowning brows and raised his eyebrows and said, "Did I say anything?"

"Didn't you say Shen Qiu is in the palace?" Gong Xingchen asked, "She goes to the palace to run errands for you?"

"You care about her?" Shang Zhi asked back.

Gong Xingchen said incredibly: "Isn't it right for me to care about her? Don't you regard her as a part of the family?"

"You don't care about her because you like her?" Shang Zhi decided to spread the word and explain it clearly.

"I like her. I don't have to worry about wasting my chicken legs." Gong Xingchen said endlessly: "Zhizhi, you don't know how big her appetite is. She can share two of her six big chicken legs on a plate. I think she seems to be not full yet. She has a good appetite when she is with her."

Shang Zhi's face was dark and admired Gu Feiyan, who was blinded and blind. It was really not easy for her to open up her head and understand the relationship between men and women.

"Gu Feiyan bought you with food, right?"

"Do I look like this?"

Shangzhi feels very similar.

Gong Xingchen was a little embarrassed, "We were enlightened together, and her homework was very good and she was often praised by the teacher. I asked her to help copy homework."

"She copied homework for you every day? The teacher didn't find that your handwriting was the same?" Shang Zhi was intrigued and wanted to know how Gu Feiyan took him down.

Gong Xingchen mentioned this past event with a gentle expression and said with emotion: "She is very powerful. She will copy my handwriting with a glance at my handwriting, but the teacher did not notice it. Later, Gu Yingying instructed a classmate to complain, and was revealed that the teacher used a ruler to hit our handboard."

"Why did you get engaged to her later?" Shang Zhi was very curious.

Gong Xingchen was silent for a while and said, "She and Gu Yingying are twins, and the sisters are not in good relationship. Gu Yingying often bullies her. In front of Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu, she pretended to be in deep sisterhood. She was not favored at home. I often saw Gu Yingying's mistakes, but Aunt Gu accused her. She hid and cried alone. She was a very tough woman. I felt uncomfortable when I saw her tears. I wanted to protect her and prevent her from crying again."

Shang Zhi was silent, unable to imagine Shen Qiu's tears.

For a moment, the two of them were speechless all the way.

Standing in front of the yard, Shang Zhi asked, "Will you marry Gu Yingying?"

"No." Gong Xingchen did not hesitate.

"I think she wants to marry you, so be careful and keep her words." Gu Yingying gave people a feeling, as if she had regarded herself as the hostess of the Gong Mansion.

Gong Xingchen was not stupid, just because he was afraid that Gu Yingying would design it.

"I understand." Gong Xingchen made up his mind and returned home in the future.

Shang Zhi entered the house and saw Gong Xingchen standing at the gate of the yard, watching her enter the house. After the question tonight, Gong Xingchen had some feelings for Shen Qiu, but it was not strong. He had never noticed that he treated Shen Qiu as his sister to take care of him.

She felt that it would take an opportunity for Gong Xingchen to discover her feelings.

Shang Zhi returned to the house, Xue Shenzhi was waiting for her.

The two were lying on the bed, Shang Zhi was sleepless and worried about the Ninth Lady, "Will she be angry with Emperor Jin of Yuan? I am worried that she will implicate her."

Xue Shenzhi said slowly: "She will be implicated. Fortunately, she was summoned by the Queen Mother for a while. What is even more suspicious is that the Queen Mother, Emperor Jin of Yuan would not kill the Ninth Lady."

Worried that Shang Zhi would not sleep well tonight, Xue Shenzhi did not tell Shang Zhi about Emperor Jin of Yuan Dynasty's bloody pillage of Ci'an Palace.

Shang Zhi felt that she owed Jiu Niang a favor.

If it weren't for the Ninth Lady, she might not have been able to proceed so smoothly.

"I hope the Queen Mother will not reveal her whereabouts." Shang Zhi couldn't help but worry, and only then did she know the situation in the palace after dawn.

"No." Xue Shenzhi was sure, hugged Shang Zhi from behind and fell into his arms, "Go to sleep."

Shang Zhi let out a 'hmm' and found a comfortable place in his arms to brew sleepiness.

Early the next morning, the maid next to Gu Yingying went out to inquire about the news.

After returning, I hurried back to the yard and reported to Gu Yingying, "I saw the soldier holding a portrait in his hand and walked away from him. It looked like a woman. I followed your instructions and went around the Xue Mansion and found someone staring at the Xue Mansion."

Gu Yingying showed a look that was indeed like this, "Are you sure you are pursuing a woman?"

"It's true!"

Gu Yingying frowned slightly, not knowing what the woman had to do with Shangzhi.

She always feels that there is a lot of stuff here.

"Please pay attention to Shangzhi." Gu Yingying reminded the maid.

"yes."

After Gu Yingying finished her breakfast, she learned that Gong Xingchen had left the beauty shop. Her eyes flashed slightly and she ordered her maid to prepare a carriage and planned to find Gong Xingchen at the beauty shop.

The maid came back soon and told Gu Yingying, "Mrs. Gong will use the carriage later. If you are not in a hurry, wait for the carriage to see off Mrs. Gong back, and then make arrangements for you."

Gu Yingying originally wanted to say no need to wait, but she left the house with Mrs. Gong. After another thought, she smelled a little unusual.

Mrs. Gong's daily routine is very regular. At this time, she should take care of her skin at home. If there is no important thing, she will not leave the house easily.

After Shang Zhi suddenly came to Gong's mansion last night, Mrs. Gong went out early in the morning.

Gu Yingying keenly thought of the news that the maid came in this morning, and her expression was slightly restrained, "You go and hire a carriage."

The maid went to do it immediately.

After Gu Yingying and Mrs. Gong left the house, she rode in a carriage and followed Mrs. Gong's carriage far behind.

Two quarters of an hour later, Mrs. Gong's carriage was parked in a restaurant.

Gu Yingying lifted the curtain and looked at Mrs. Gong entering Tongfu Restaurant with empty hands. After a while, she was carrying something in her hand and boarded the carriage. About a quarter of an hour later, she stopped at a newly opened Mobaozhai.

After waiting for a while, Gu Yingying got off the carriage and walked into Mobaozhai, she could not see Mrs. Gong.

Gu Yingying frowned and picked up two calligraphy and paintings to pay the bill. After returning to the carriage, Mrs. Gong walked out of Mobaozhai for about half an hour.

"Miss, we went in before and didn't see Mrs. Gong. Could it be that she is on the second floor and is very familiar with the boss?" The maid asked in confusion.

In Gu Yingying's soft eyes, a dark and unclear mood flashed, "Maybe."

After observing Mrs. Gong for several days, she would come out from time to time every day, and stay for half an hour before leaving.

After discovering that Mrs. Gong came to Mobaozhai that day, Gu Yingying no longer followed Mrs. Gong out, but left her first, then sat down at a teahouse, stared at Mrs. Gong's whereabouts, and found clues.

When Gu Yingying saw Mrs. Gong delivering things to Mo Baozhai, she felt confident and sent her maid to find ways to get a portrait of a soldier searching.

The maid brought a portrait for Gu Yingying. She stared at it for a while and did not find anything suspicious about it.

Gu Yingying put it in her sleeve. She carefully planned and met Mrs. Gong at the door of the mansion. The two people collided accidentally. The portrait in Gu Yingying's sleeve fell down. When the wind blew, the portrait unfolded, revealing a elegant face.
