Song Mingzhi swallowed the fruit in his mouth hard and tried not to laugh.

What a loss...

Isn't that just an old White Rabbit toffee box? The paper inside is some kind of wrapping paper cut into small pieces. It's pretty.

Song Xinghe took the box and turned it over in his hands: "This is good! But what's the use of it?"

"Don't you understand this? Do women's things have to be useful? Besides, who said this is useless?"

Gu Yunyao twisted a piece of paper between her fingers: "Su Wanning is Tanhua Lang's sister. Although this kind of paper cannot be used for writing, it is still paper, which just shows her brother's identity.

It also has fragrance, beautiful color, and is not afraid of water. Isn’t this enough?”

"The pattern on this box is a lifelike rabbit. Can the capital find a second one?"

"That's right, that's right," Song Xinghe was a born businessman, and he knew it right away, "That's true. Okay, that's it!"

"This thing is so good, how should I charge it?"

Gu Yunyao tapped her fingers on the table: "You said, the prince wants to send it away?"

"Exactly."

"Prince, Crown Prince, if you give me something worth one hundred and eighty taels, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the Crown Prince? Let me tell you, it must be this amount."

Gu Yunyao stretched out two fingers.

Song Xinghe probed: "Two thousand? That's not much for you..."

"That's two thousand," Gu Yunyao blew the wrapping paper, "two thousand taels per piece."

Song Mingzhi coughed several times.

Song Xinghe shook the box: "What's inside is..."

"Perfect, ten pictures in total."

"That box is 20,000 taels?" Song Xinghe's mind made a calculation.

"Yes, 20,000 taels. When it's done, we can share half of it each. How about that?"

Song Xinghe was startled. Originally, he was thinking of thirty-seven or twenty-eight, so he could just take a small one. Unexpectedly, Gu Yunyao went straight to five-five.

"This...this is inappropriate, too much."

"What's more? I only produce things. No matter how you negotiate or sell them, you have to come forward. You deserve it. Okay, that's it."

Gu Yunyao was so proud.

Song Mingzhi took a bite of the fruit silently.

After the matter was settled, Song Xinghe took Song Mingzhi to leave.

After getting on the carriage, Song Mingzhi quietly unfolded the small words in his palm: We will gather in the courtyard tonight.

After sending the two of them off, before Gu Yunyao returned to the house, the servant came running out of breath.

"County Lord, it's bad, the third lady is going to take the little red horse away!"

Gu Yunyao immediately went to the stables.

There's already a commotion here.

The groom pulled the reins of the little red horse, but the little red horse didn't move at all, its hooves kept moving, and it just refused to move.

The little maid next to her was shouting loudly: "Quick, quick! Why can't you even control the horse? The third lady is still waiting."

There was a sudden whistle, and the little red horse raised its neck, dragged the groom down, and ran towards Gu Yunyao.

Gu Yunyao gently pulled it and patted its neck: "Who wants to snatch the county owner's horse?"

The groom got up and grinned at the fall: "Second... County Master, this horse turns out to be the third lady's. I have raised it for so long, how can I still not know it?"

"That's right, now the third lady is going to marry to the Duke's mansion, and she needs to take this horse with her," the maid said, "the county master should stop meddling in other people's business."

"Oh," Gu Yunyao glanced at the two of them, "I think it is enough for Gu Qingxue to take you two dogs, and there is no need to take the horse."

"Go back and tell her that this horse now belongs to the county owner. She can take it if she wants it. Where does the honor come from?"

"You..." The groom still wanted to say, Gu Yunyao ordered the servant, "Tell the housekeeper to follow Gu Qingxue to the Duke's Mansion. If he doesn't do it, I don't mind, and the housekeeper will find someone else to do it."

"yes."

Everyone present was silent. Who didn't know that Gu Yunyao's status was now rising, and Gu Qingxue was going to the Duke's Mansion soon, and she was still a concubine. She might come back at some time in the future.

The maid had a pale face, didn't dare to say anything more, and walked away in despair.

Gu Yunyao patted the little red horse: "Well done, don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one will dare to bully you again."

Returning to the courtyard, I unexpectedly saw Gu Qingwen at the entrance of the courtyard.

Compared to Gu Qingxue, Gu Yunyao felt that Gu Qingwen was the one who really bit people but never barked.

"Is something wrong?"

Gu Qingwen smiled slightly: "Second sister, third sister will be carried to the Duke's Mansion today. She did not do this well. However, the deal is done, and I hope you don't hold a grudge against her too much."

"I know, it's easier said than done," Gu Qingwen opened her palm and held an exquisite ivory-carved ball.

"I went to the temple to ask for this little thing before and had it consecrated by the abbot. I will give it to you as compensation for you."

"In the future, the third sister will marry as a wife. When the wedding date between you and the King of Qin is set, we three sisters will be able to resolve the past feud as always."

That's really nice to say.

Gu Yunyao guessed that it was not a good thing.

Gu Qingwen would not be willing to give good things to her.

But inexplicably, Gu Yunyao reached out and took it, feeling a vague numbness flowing through his fingertips.

"Second sister, have a good rest, I'll leave first."

Gu Qingwen turned and left.

Looking at her back, the headmaster whispered: "This woman is calm and quiet. She is not a good bird. What did she give you?"

Gu Yunyao tossed the things in his hands: "I don't know yet, but it looks interesting."

He handed the carved tooth ball to Da Dangzhen, who shook it and looked at the sun again.

"Why do you feel... so gloomy? Ayao, be careful."

"I know," Gu Yunyao pinched the tooth-carved ball, and the numbness she felt when she first encountered it did not reappear.

But the Chaos Ring didn't warn either.

After bringing the thing into the Chaos Ring, Gu Yunyao put it under the microscope and observed it carefully. He couldn't help but marvel at how delicately the thing was made.

It doesn't look big, but there are three layers of tooth carvings on the outside, with interlaced hollows, and a bead swinging back and forth inside.

This bead is neither gold nor silver nor jade, it just looks like it has pupils. No wonder the boss said he felt gloomy.

After looking at it for a long time, I couldn't find out anything, but I'm sure it won't do any harm.

That was strange. Why did Gu Qingwen give this to her for no reason? She didn't believe it. It was just to show goodwill.

If she couldn't think of it, she might as well not think about it. As soon as she came out of the Chaos Ring, Yang came into the room and grabbed her.

"Ayao, it's so lively outside."

Looking at the time, he should be here to pick up Gu Qingxue.

"Let's go and have a look."

The three of them went to see it together, and when they got closer, they discovered that despite the excitement, a pink sedan chair had arrived from the Duke's Mansion, and even the music player was found by the second room himself.

Gu Qingxue was wearing a peach-pink dress, without even a hijab, her face was pale, her eyes were sad, and she didn't look happy at all.

Lu Chuanlin didn't show up at all.

The contempt for her was to the extreme.

The second lady kept wiping her tears aside and whispered something to her, but she didn't respond at all.

Gu Qingwen was also there, but didn't say a word.

Gu Qingxue bent down to get on the sedan chair, and the sound of the suona made her feel not festive, but a little desolate.

After the sedan chair was carried away and the team left, Gu Yunyao suddenly felt that the Chaos Ring was shaking slightly.

Returning to the courtyard, Gu Yunyao entered the Chaos Ring to check and found that the fog that was originally shrouded in fog had dispersed and became more stable.

It seems that Gu Qingxue's marriage made Chaos Ring very happy.

Gu Yunyao was also happy. When it got dark, she spoke to the head master and quietly went to Prince Su's Mansion.

This time she came alone because she had made an appointment with Song Mingzhi in advance and Song Mingzhi was there to take care of her, so it went much smoother.

"How's your injury? Are you feeling better? I heard you went to the palace again? Did something happen?"

After several questions in a row, Gu Yunyao sat down and looked around to answer them one by one.

"Did you have meal?"

"What should I eat?" Song Mingzhi sighed, "I've been looking forward to knowing you were coming, so how can I still think about eating?"

"That's great," Gu Yunyao took out the hot pot, "Let's chat while eating."

When Song Mingzhi saw it, he was so moved that he almost cried.
