Drive a RV and go farming in ancient times.

In the simple tent, Li Yunting sat cross-legged on a straw mat, with murderous intent still in his eyes.

Xu Huaiyi was surprised and puzzled, "Is the letter to your father? I thought you would write a letter to remind your mother to be more careful."

Li Yunting said self-deprecatingly, "It's useless to remind her. Even if she believes it, she can't defend herself."

The most ridiculous thing is that she probably won't believe it. She naively thinks that with Marquis Dingyuan around, no one would dare to attack them. How pathetic and pitiful is that? After so many years, she still can't see through that man's lies and indifference!

Xu Huaiyi asked curiously, "What did you write? Remind him to protect your mother?"

Li Yunting said fiercely, "It's not a reminder, it's a threat!"

Xu Huaiyi took a breath.

Li Yunting continued, "I threatened him that if anything happened to my mother, no matter who did it, I would hold Li Yunzhao responsible. Even if it cost me my life, I would take Li Yunzhao with me. Before I die, I would expose all the dirty deeds in the mansion, so that Lord Dingyuan would never be able to hold his head up high in his life!"

Hearing this, Xu Huaiyi gave a thumbs up with admiration, "Good guy, you hit the snake at its weakest part, very good."

This is indeed much more effective than a reminder. As long as Marquis Dingyuan does not want to give up Li Yunzhao as the heir, does not want to cause chaos in the family and quarrels among brothers, and does not want to bear the risk of ruining the reputation of the Marquis's mansion, he will definitely keep this matter in mind and dare not turn a blind eye to it anymore.

Li Yunting calmed down and reminded him, "You should also remind your family, right? Li Yunzhao might be so cruel that he would dare to attack your family."

Xu Huaiyi said slowly, "I'm fine here. I'll write a letter later and have someone send it back to let them know."

Li Yunting raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you anxious or afraid?"

Xu Huaiyi said proudly, "I've made all the arrangements when I go out. If something really happens, Mr. Jiang and the Sun family will help to solve it. Besides, my wife is very smart. I can't even plot against her, let alone others.

Li Yunting, "..."

Having a capable daughter-in-law to take care of the house can indeed save you a lot of worries.

However, having said that, Xu Huaiyi still found an opportunity, slipped into the RV, left a note, explained the matter briefly, and reminded her to be on guard against Li Yunzhao's revenge at all times.

After reading it, Gu Huanxi reviewed the servants in the house again, using both kindness and severity. He also told Han Jun to pay more attention in the near future to prevent someone from secretly plotting against the Gu family.

Han Jun was responsible for protecting the Gu family's safety, so he naturally responded to all requests. When Xu Huaiyi was not at home, he would protect the Gu family tightly even for the sake of his nephew. He had no ability to manage the business outside, but if anyone dared to break into his house, he would ensure that they would never come back.

Two shifts of guards take turns on duty at home, twelve hours a day, to guard the house strictly. No villain can find any loopholes. Most of the servants are in unimportant positions and cannot even enter the main courtyard. Even if they are bribed or threatened, they have no chance to harm anyone.

From Gu Huanxi to the children, there were always people following them, never leaving their side. They chose experts who could fight ten people at once, so they were not afraid of being attacked.

With all the details in place, Gu Huanxi calmly waited for the revenge of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

For several days in a row, there was no movement over there.

On the contrary, the club that Su Zhe reorganized caused quite a stir.

First, they mysteriously launched several dishes, claiming that they were the first of their kind in Beijing. They were only served to one table of guests every day, and they packaged them to be the best on earth. They also confidently made a promise that if guests were not satisfied or impressed after eating them, they would get a tenfold refund. This gimmick whetted everyone's appetite.

There is no shortage of idle and bored people in the capital, as well as those who are curious or real foodies. When they hear about such a new thing, how can they not go and check it out?

I went there expecting to be slapped in the face, but after eating it, I was really impressed by how delicious it was.

It's more than amazing and satisfying, it's simply irresistible and enchanting.

After the meal, they all asked what the hot pot base with a layer of red oil floating on it was, which was so spicy that it made people feel hot but the more they ate, the more they became addicted to it, and what the sour and sweet thing that looked so appetizing was, and why they had never seen it before?

Su Zhe kept his mouth shut and only revealed that this was their club's signature dish, one of a kind. No other place could replicate it for at least the next year. Even if they knew the recipe, they didn't have the raw materials.

Unable to get any information out of him, they turned to other ways to ask around, but no one knew the answer. Those who were more knowledgeable did guess that it might be an alien species from a foreign country, but they had no idea what it was.

Just this one delicacy made the quiet club popular again. Everyone is curious, and those who are not short of money have their servants line up every day. The less they can eat, the more they miss it, and everyone is itching to eat it.

With more customers waiting, they would naturally get upset, so Su Zhe used his second trick, placing the prepared cards on the table to attract people's attention.

As soon as Werewolf was launched, it quickly became popular in Beijing. It was all about intrigue and deception. Who among the children of wealthy families was stupid? This game was made for them. It would be strange if they didn't like it!

In fact, the more you play, the more you become addicted to it and cannot extricate yourself.

Just these two moves saved the club from its decline and dealt a heavy slap to the face of Xiangya Pavilion. The more high-profile and lively it was before, the more miserable its ending was afterwards.

Su Rui was so angry that he almost vomited blood. At the beginning, he snatched the business of Wangyouxuan and slapped Su Zhe in the face. He was praised by everyone in the Su family. He was happier than marrying the daughter of a third-rank official. He wanted to set off firecrackers to tell the world that he, Su Rui, was no worse than Su Zhe. Who would have thought that the good times would not last long. In less than half a month, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, catching him off guard.

Su Zhe would find a way to fight back, he was prepared, but who knew that the fight back would be so beautiful and thorough!

He wanted to go to the second prince to ask for an explanation, but was stopped by Su Jian.

Su Jian said it very bluntly, "Xiangya Pavilion has a good stake in the Second Prince, but he will not blindly favor you for that little bit of money. In his eyes, the Seventh Prince is also his subordinate. In fact, the Seventh Prince's own value and weight are higher than yours. How could he suppress the Seventh Prince for you? Going to him will only show your incompetence and will be of no use."

After hearing this, Su Rui felt so bitter that he was about to wring water out of his heart. He was filled with hatred and panic, "What should I do? Should I just watch Xiangya Pavilion being squeezed out by him?"

Su Jian said, "Don't you always want to prove to others that you are better than him? Then defeat him openly in the business world. Only in this way can you secure your position as the head of the family."

Su Rui actually listened to it. He first learned how to play Werewolf. Not long after, he launched this game in his own club. At this time, he didn't care about the loss of face caused by copying and plagiarizing. Retaining customers was the most important thing.

But when asking about the spicy hot pot base, there was no way. Even the chef was asked, but he had no idea at all, because the hot pot base was sent to the kitchen after it was boiled, and none of them handled it.

After further inquiries, Su Rui found out that the cause was the Gu family. He gave up completely and had to look around for a skilled chef. He spent a large sum of money to hire the successor of the imperial chef to take charge. After a few days of hard work, he finally saw some results.

However, just when he had just caught his breath, Su Zhe started another auction. The items being auctioned were mysterious, strange and peculiar, and soon attracted a large group of people to show their support. Even the second prince came out, and the lively scene became a legend for a while.

When Su Rui found out, he really couldn't hold it in anymore and was so angry that he vomited blood.

The Su family secretly invited several doctors to see the family and prescribed a lot of medicine, but it was of little use because the disease was in the heart and the patient was emotionally upset. If the patient couldn't get over it, no panacea would be of any use.

After Su Zhe heard about it, he happily drank for half the night to celebrate, and then sent a car full of rare things to the Gu family to show his gratitude. Without Gu Huanxi's good ideas, how could he have taken revenge so happily?

Gu Huanxi didn't beat around the bush and accepted the money as soon as it was delivered to her. She selected a portion and distributed it to Mr. Jiang and Doctor Jiao, and also gave some to the Sun family. She knew very well that the reason why Su Zhe could compete openly with Su Rui outside instead of resorting to despicable means to win or lose was entirely because of these big banners. Without their deterrence, even if he had good ideas, they would not be able to play such a big role.

However, just as this matter came to a temporary end, Mr. Jiang was about to leave.

It all started when he received a letter from his hometown. Mr. Jiang has an older brother, who is the head of the Jiang family. He has never been an official and has always stayed in his ancestral home in Jeju to manage the land and family schools. Although the two brothers do not meet often, they exchange a lot of letters and have a deep relationship. Now, his brother has suddenly fallen ill, and the doctor has implicitly expressed that he can prepare for his funeral. In this case, how can Mr. Jiang not go back to see him?

No matter how worried he was about the Gu family, he could not hesitate since human lives were at stake.

Gu Huanxi did not make things difficult for him and quickly prepared all the necessary arrangements for the journey. Uncle Zhong was there to ensure his safety, and he also assigned two honest and hardworking servants to drive the carriage and serve. He packed a large bag with food and drinks, several sets of clothes and bedding, and some silver bills, as a poor family can get rich on the road, so he gave them a thick stack of money.

Jiang Yi had to go back with him. If he unfortunately passed away, it would be unreasonable for him not to be present at the funeral.

Finally, we also brought Dr. Jiao along. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we have to give it a try, right?

This was a suggestion that Gu Huanxi took the initiative to propose, because she had a hunch that Mr. Jiang's brother's illness was a setup, and the purpose was naturally to get rid of both Mr. Jiang and Doctor Jiao. But knowing that this was a trick, she had no choice but to cooperate. After all, that was a life and she couldn't afford to gamble with it.

Although Jiang Yong decided to leave, he also made all the arrangements he could. Even when he was away, there were still four disciples. The Dali Temple Minister was a powerful person, so if anyone really dared to take action, they would have to think twice.

Before setting off, Jiang Yong called all his disciples and instructed them one by one, asking them to help him take care of the Gu family and not let anyone bully them.

The four disciples naturally agreed readily. To show their sincerity and also to show it to those who had ulterior motives, after Jiang Yong left, since it was not convenient for them to visit the Gu family, they asked their wives to visit the Gu family in a high-profile manner.

In addition to them, Sun Yu's wife Zeng, and Sun Yu's sister, Sun Tao, the daughter-in-law of the grandson of Duke Anguo, also came to visit Gu Huanxi under the pretext of appreciating the flowers. This was undoubtedly to support her and tell certain people that they were behind the Gu family.

Gu Huanxi appreciated the kindness and organized a flower-viewing banquet in the plum garden, with food, drinks, and entertainment. This really opened the eyes of the ladies of the house who came and surprised them. At the same time, they also looked at Gu Huanxi differently, and their original support and protection became much more sincere.

However, there are always some people who are arrogant and do not take these things seriously and insist on seeking death.

When the rumor spread, Gu Huanxi and the children were just returning from the hot spring resort. The second batch of tomatoes could finally be picked, and the peppers were gradually turning red. After being dried and collected for seeds, they could be supplied to the club, and the family no longer had to scrimp and save the fruits when cooking.

My good mood turned to ashes after I got home and listened to the hesitant words of the personal servant sent by Su Zhe.

Gu Huanxi was not particularly angry, she just felt that the knife hanging over her head had finally fallen. Ever since she received the reminder from Xu Huaiyi, she had been waiting for Dingyuan Marquis Mansion or the Meng family to take action, but there had been no movement. She was still wondering, could it be that the two families felt it was too risky and pulled back?

My goodness, it turns out he is waiting until Mr. Jiang and Dr. Jiao leave Beijing before he explodes!

It was really hard for them to endure for so long! They had to watch helplessly as they fought a great turnaround on the club issue.

Su Zhe's servant was called Yinshan. He was loyal and clever, and was highly valued. He usually stayed by Su Zhe's side. This time, Su Zhe sent him to deliver the message, which showed that he was really anxious and thought that the matter was very serious and he dared not take it lightly.

When Yinshan came, he was anxious and a little scared, for fear that after he finished speaking, Gu Huanxi would not be able to bear the rumors and would have a breakdown. He would not know how to respond then. But his master now wanted to avoid suspicion and did not dare to visit him, so he had to come forward.

who knew...

"Mrs. Gu, do you understand?"

Maybe he was too subtle and she didn't react? But if he was too blunt, wouldn't it be offensive to her ears?

Gu Huanxi nodded calmly, "Isn't it just that there are rumors about your young master and I? They think that we have been having an affair while Huaiyi is not at home, that I am cheating on my husband and your young master is cheating on his friend and is ungrateful..."

Yinshan was sweating profusely after hearing this. If he knew everything, why didn't he react? "Then you..."

Gu Huanxi smiled, "Whatever the truth is, everyone who should know it knows it. It's fine as long as our own people don't misunderstand us. As for how outsiders spread rumors, just treat it as a joke. If you get angry and distressed about it, and disturb the peace of your family, then that's what the other party wants, making your loved ones sad and your enemies happy."

Yinshan was dumbfounded. Just, it was that simple? A woman's reputation was tarnished. To prove her innocence, many people would cut off their hair and burn incense, or simply end their lives with a white silk ribbon. At worst, they would try to commit suicide. How could they just ignore it so lightly?

"Are you not afraid of Master Xu..."

Gu Huanxi said confidently, "Don't worry, he won't think too much. Go back and tell your young master and tell him not to be nervous. Huaiyi will definitely believe him and will not question my innocence."

"What about your family?"

"Oh, I'm the only one in the Gu family, so no one can tell me what to do. As for the Xu family, we've severed ties with them a long time ago, so they can't interfere in the affairs of my Gu family."

"That, that..."

Gu Huanxi was calm and composed, and he didn't mind at all. He couldn't mess with Yinshan.

"Tell your young master to hold his ground and not do anything for the time being. Rushing to clarify things now would only make him look guilty. Just do what needs to be done. It's a trumped-up charge anyway, so just be frank. If you must do something, then let someone investigate which family first spread these dirty rumors, and who is fanning the flames behind the scenes. Only after the truth is found out can the injustice be cleared."

"Yes……"
