Thinking

"But I'm not angry anymore." The more Su Xiaomu thought about it, the more funny she felt. She shook her head in relief, "It doesn't matter to me whether I'm sorry or not. In fact, I also know that you can't help but take more of it.

For now, that's it for the two of us. It's getting late, so you can leave as soon as possible, I won't keep you for dinner."

Su Xiaomu walked to the table and poured him a cup of tea. The tea filled the cup and soaked out: "When the tea is full, you will see off the guests. Mr. Gu is a scholar and should know this better than me."

Gu Jingcheng was staring at Su Xiaomu's face very seriously at this time. He tried hard to discern every microexpression on her face. He originally thought that Su Xiaomu was joking with him, but when he saw her unpretentious look, he staggered.

He took two steps back.

At this moment, he felt that his heart had hit rock bottom.

When Su Xiaomu was angry, he could still tell himself that Su Xiaomu had him in his heart and cared about him, so he got angry because of his deception.

But he didn't expect that she would have such an indifferent attitude now, so could he think that he no longer even had a place in Su Xiaomu's heart?

"Why are you just not willing to listen to me? Since you also think I have difficulties, why are you unwilling to forgive me? In fact, as long as you are willing to take a step forward, I can make up for you in any way I want."

Gu Jingcheng stretched out his hand shrinkingly to grab Su Xiaomu's sleeve, but he couldn't grasp it between her sides.

A tear slipped from his eye, and the ends of his eyes turned red. He asked Su Xiaomu again and again: "Just give me another chance, okay?"

"Actually, I feel very strange. Why do you keep asking for my forgiveness when you have done something wrong that has nothing to do with me? And now you act like it's all my fault if I don't forgive you."

For the first time, Su Xiaomu hated Gu Jingcheng so much, and the more she listened to him speak, the more disgusted she became: "Isn't it enough that I can understand you?"

She didn't want to continue talking to him and turned around to leave.

Su Xiaomu returned to the study and continued drawing. Under the flickering candlelight, she couldn't tell clearly when Gu Jingcheng left, but she could vaguely hear the sound of someone closing the door.

I could no longer draw the picture, and Su Xiaomu was no longer in the mood to have a midnight snack.

Although she went into the city with Zhao Mu this time, Shi Zhu was responsible for collecting the bills of the dessert shop and had arrived in Fucheng two days earlier.

Shi Zhu was still asleep at this time, so Su Xiaomu went out and asked her to keep the wooden box left by Gu Jingcheng, thinking that she would return it to him later if she had a chance.

She raised her hand to touch the hairpins in her bun, and along with them, she returned the gifts he gave her.

Since we want to clear up the relationship, of course we have to clear everything away.

"Did the lady and the gentleman have a quarrel?"

Shizhu was not in the hot spring courtyard these two days, so he didn't know what happened between the two of them.

"It's not a quarrel, it's just that I found out some things he hid from me before. Shi Zhu, do you think Gu Jingcheng and I look like a couple?"

Su Xiaomu looked at the night in the courtyard, his mood couldn't be described as melancholy, but he really wanted to say a few words of emotion.

Shi Zhu didn't know why she asked this, but he thought about it seriously, and then scratched his head in embarrassment: "Let's say they are a couple. The wife and the son don't seem to be as close as ordinary couples, but they feel more distant than friends.

It should be closer. Speaking of which, the wife and the young master have been married for less than a year."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter anymore." Su Xiaomu sighed, "You go to bed first, I have something to tell you tomorrow morning."

"Okay, then, madam, please pay attention to your health and go to bed early."

Shi Zhu was a smart girl. Although she was curious about the gossip of her master's family, she didn't say anything about it, and she definitely wouldn't talk too much.

In the next few days, Su Xiaomu devoted himself wholeheartedly to the business of making balm.

She made balm during the day and designed the boxes for the balm at night. She was always imagining how to decorate her new store.

She kept adjusting various recipes. She first made a flower-flavored balm, and then tried to make a melon-flavored one after success.

Most of the balms on the market are made from lard, which doesn't smell as good as beeswax.

So in the end, the balm she made was much better than the ordinary balms on the market, both in taste and style. It not only had a strong fragrance, but also had a long-lasting fragrance.

Zhao Mu also asked her about the shop. It was about a hundred or two hundred meters away from the dessert shop. There was also a small courtyard behind it, but the space was not enough for people to live in. At most, it was just enough to pile some sundries.

After settling the matter at the shop, Su Xiaomu bought a few girls and boys from Ren Yazi and sent them to Zhumeng Xiaozhu to ask Shi Lan to help her train them.

Su Xiaomu didn't put the finished product in the shop for sale yet, and the delivery time agreed with Lou Qi hadn't come yet, so she generously distributed the prepared ointment to Shi Lan and the others, and also asked someone to give it to Luo Yi.

Chen Anning also sent a lot of them.

She even put some high-end private rooms in Zhumeng Xiaozhu so that ladies and ladies who stay here can try them out for free.

After this, Su Xiaomu's balm became popular even before it was sold. Almost all the ladies in Fucheng knew that she was going to open a rouge and gouache shop, and they all came to her to make reservations in advance.

Su Xiaomu's powder shop can be said to be booming before it even opens.

In addition to Lou Qi's orders and reservations from many ladies, there are also girls from other restaurants and shops making reservations with her.

The quantity they wanted was larger than Lou Qi's, and their requirements were less than Lou Qi's. Even though Su Xiaomu was not so satisfied with the unit price, the balm business was already hugely profitable, and she could make a lot of money from it.

few.

Su Xiaomu was busy doing business and hadn't heard anything about Gu Jingcheng for a long time, but if she didn't ask, Zhao Mu and Zhao Mu would always come to her with some idle news about Gu Jingcheng.

Su Xiaomu had met Wan Shiniang several times in the past few days. She knew that the two of them were probably having a conflict, so she didn't say much. She just mentioned in passing that Gu Jingcheng had been living in Wanfu recently.

Her words were somewhat suggestive, and Su Xiaomu didn't know whether Wan Shiniang was here to be a lobbyist for Gu Jingcheng, or if she just wanted to meddle in other people's business.

She just pretended that she couldn't understand what Wan Shiniang meant, and used other topics to talk to her.

The days passed by, and soon it was the day when Su Xiaomu handed Lou Qi the ointment.

She packed all the balms and handed them over to Lou Qi at once.

"Ms. Su is Mrs. Su. What you make is not even comparable to the best ointment masters in the capital. We in the Western Region have people with skills similar to yours, but they are still slightly inferior in maintaining the fragrance."

Lou Qi smelled the ointment, took out a little and put it on his hands, using a fan motion to smell the fragrance.

"It's a matter of loyalty to others when you take their money. As long as you are satisfied with the goods."

Su Xiaomu was already used to Lou Qi's unserious look. Although his face was more handsome than ordinary men, which would put people in a good mood easily, the beauty was more than greasy.
