Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

Chapter 66 Who is Meng Jiangnu crying for? 17

Mr. Meng had the habit of going out to inspect the shop every day, even if it was just to sit in and take a look. This was a habit he had developed over the years.

Except for this unusually hot summer, he let Fan Xiliang go out to inspect the store instead of him. Now Fan Xiliang was arrested and no one knew where he was, so the task of inspection fell back on Meng Yuanwai.

Mrs. Meng felt that her daughter was still growing, so when there was nothing to do, she would let her daughter sleep until she woke up naturally every day. Breakfast would usually be kept warm in the kitchen and delivered directly to the girls' building when she woke up.

Huaping made a double bun for Gu Li, put two pearl flowers on her head, tied a beautiful bow headband at the back, and then hurried to the front yard.

Since so many plans for the future were discussed last night, Gu Li can’t just talk about it.

Everything is based only on her own imagination, which is unrealistic. She wants to go to the tavern today to observe it in person.

After breakfast, Gu Li informed Youshi and then took Huaping and Meng Yuanwai to go out.

Fortunately, this era does not restrict women from going out, which opened the first door for her to go out and do business.

Gu Li followed Mr. Meng with brisk steps.

This was her first time going out since she came to this world. In the past, she had been so busy with Fan Xiliang's affairs that she had no intention of going out. As long as things were not settled, she always felt like fate was strangling her throat.

Now, she can do what she is interested in and also prepare for the final blow to Fan Xiliang one year later.

I don't know if Fan Xiliang has arrived at the place where he will serve. I think the copper coins she gave in a cloth bag should be enough for the yamen runners to choose a place with the strictest discipline for Fan Xiliang to serve.

Gu Li did not feel any pleasure from revenge at all.

That was where Fan Xiliang should have gone.

And Cai Qing, the ultimate beneficiary who had never appeared in the world's mouth in the previous life, robbed the man of the lady, took the money taken by the man, and passed it on to others. There will be no such good thing in this life.

Gu Li was lost in thought and almost bumped into Mr. Meng's thick back. Fortunately, Hua Ping, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, caught her in time.

"Miss, be careful."

Gu Li looked up and saw Mr. Meng standing at the gate for some reason without taking a step. He turned his head to the east and made a clicking sound, "Why is this brat here? What does he want to do?"

Gu Li took two steps before she appeared from behind Mr. Meng, who was as solid as a hill.

The Jiang Mansion and the Meng Mansion are adjacent to each other, and a carriage is parked between the gates of the two mansions.

There was a person sitting at the door of the carriage.

He was seen leaning against the corner of the carriage, one arm resting on one of his bent legs, the other foot leisurely resting on the frame.

The angular face was sprinkled with tiny bright spots by the sunlight from the sky, and the grass root in his mouth trembled slightly with his small movements. He tilted his head nonchalantly and looked up at the sky, his deep eyes were long, and with the contrast of his sword-like eyebrows and straight nose, he looked like a general who was ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

The moment he heard the sound, Jiang Zhuo turned his head and saw Meng Yuanwai coming out. He quickly lowered his long legs and was about to get off the carriage to pay his respects.

Then Jiang Zhuo unexpectedly saw the little sister of the Meng family coming out from behind Mr. Meng.

Before the joy in his heart could even show on his face, his mind could not help but think of his outrageous behavior last night. Jiang Zhuo's throat tightened, and he only glanced at Gu Li before immediately looking away.

After stepping forward to greet Mr. Meng, the shame in his heart had been completely suppressed, "Ayao, where are you going today? I will take you both."

"Brother, are you going out for something?"

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just strolling around!" After listening to A Yao's plan last night, he thought that since he had nothing to do during the day, he would go to East-West Street to see if he could open a shop for A Yao to practice his skills.

He would be leaving home soon, so Ayao would have something to do at home to kill time. He could afford the loss or profit of the shop.

Gu Li looked at Mr. Meng. She would listen to her father on this matter.

When Mr. Meng saw Jiang Zhuo's anxious eyes, the corners of his mouth curled up and he said, "Okay, you drive!" Then he took the lead and walked towards Jiang Zhuo's carriage.

Jiang Zhuo followed Gu Li happily, and when getting into the carriage, he stretched out his arm in front of Gu Li like a little eunuch so that she could use his support to step into the carriage.

Gu Li took advantage of the fact that Mr. Meng had already entered the carriage and no one was watching to pinch Jiang Zhuo's not-so-thick cotton coat. Oh, the tight muscles under the coat.

Didn't move.

Just as Jiang Zhuo was puzzled by Gu Li's strange action, Gu Li's voice floated over softly in the winter wind: "Brother, you are wearing too thin clothes. You will freeze to death!"

"No, brother is not cold!"

Even after Gu Li entered the carriage, the heat on his face from Gu Li's touch had not yet subsided. He really didn't feel cold at all, and his heat was very strong.

It was so severe that I almost had a nosebleed again.

Although Jiang Zhuo was just sitting outside the car and driving, he was still very happy. This was the closest he and A-mei had ever been in broad daylight, with only a layer of door panel between them.

In his high spirits, Jiang Zhuo automatically ignored the huge Mr. Meng sitting inside.

Jiang Zhuo shook the reins in his hand and patted the horse's body twice. The horse snorted and started to run away.

The first stop was the Meng family’s tavern on West Street.

It was not yet time for the tavern to open, and the shop's front had just opened. Gu Li and Mr. Meng got off the carriage and went to the backyard of the shop.

This is a big house with a row of houses connected to the backyard. The yard is filled with wine jars of various sizes. The owner and the waiters live in the backyard.

Seeing the boss coming, the shopkeeper, who was in his forties, hurried out from a room on the east side to greet him.

Without the shopkeeper's request, the waiter quickly brewed a pot of tea and brought it to the reception room.

In the past, the boss came almost every day to check the account book from the previous day or to see what needed to be purchased.

But today, there was an additional young lady who came with the boss, and there was also a tall and mighty man standing next to the young lady.

Gu Li recognized the owner of her own shop, "Uncle Gao, long time no see. You seem to have gained some weight!"

Shopkeeper Gao's eyelids jumped. "Miss, what are you talking about? I'm just wearing too many clothes in the winter, so I'm not as well-proportioned as you saw me in the summer, hahahaha."

Manager Gao's smile was a little weak. He had indeed gained weight.

The business of this tavern was getting worse every year, and the work he needed to do was getting less and less. Anyway, the monthly salary given by the manager was the same, so he was happy to have some free time.

If I have so much free time, I will gain weight!

Mr. Meng also looked at Manager Gao. He saw Manager Gao every day and didn't notice anything, but after his daughter pointed it out, Mr. Meng actually felt that Manager Gao had gained a lot of weight.
