After the rebirth of Madam Hou Clan, her heart was sealed with cement

The next morning.

There was a lot of excitement in front of Zhiweixuan, and the people were talking a lot, full of expectations for yesterday's farce and today's fair review.

Gu Huaijing and Tan Zhixu stood in front of the store, facing everyone with a magnanimous attitude.

"Dear fellow villagers, we know that Weixuan has always adhered to honest management and will never allow anything that damages food safety to happen."

Tan Zhixu announced loudly, drawing a chorus of approval.

Although many people supported them yesterday, she knew that there were still many people who didn't know what was going on and were murmuring in their hearts. What she had to do was to let everyone know that Zhiweixuan was definitely a serious business.

"Today, we will invite representatives from all parties to form a tasting group to supervise the source of our ingredients and the cooking process throughout the entire process, thoroughly find out the truth, and know that Wei Xuan is innocent."

Some people in the crowd were indignant: "The people behind the scenes have gone too far. They actually used such despicable methods to deal with Zhiweixuan, whom we trust."

Another lady patted her chest and assured: "I watched Zhiweixuan make it step by step. I have been eating their food for decades and have never had any problems!"

While the tasting team was working intensively, things were not going well in the capital.

Originally, Nanny Huang told the old lady that Song Ling'er still wanted to understand, but she didn't expect that after just one night, Song Ling'er changed her mind.

The old lady was very angry with Song Ling'er. She had been in Jing'an Hall for the past few days and saw no one.

After a day of testing, Zhiweixuan was confirmed to be genuine, and Tan Zhixu's reputation also spread.

There was nothing wrong with the shop, but the investigation made Tan Zhixu feel a little flustered.

As the investigation deepens, more and more facts emerge.

After nightfall, everyone else in the shop left one after another, leaving only Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing.

At that time, Guyu and Tengxi were in the carriage outside.

Guyu and Tengxi faced each other. They couldn't hear the movement in the shop and didn't know what their master was plotting. However, they always felt that northern Shaanxi was not safe recently.

"Miss Gu Yu, you must be careful when you come in with Miss Tan."

It was Teng Xi who spoke first. Faced with Teng Xi's concern, Gu Yu was also very moved and nodded to him, "Don't worry, I won't let my master get hurt."

Their eyes met, and everything was unspoken.

But at this time, in Zhiweixuan, Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing started to quarrel.

"I said, this matter is very dangerous. You just need to run your shop well. Don't get involved in strange things and dock matters." Gu Huaijing frowned and looked at the challenge.

As soon as these words came out, Tan Zhixu's eyebrows were filled with stubbornness, "I can't just sit idly by and ignore it. Gu Huaijing, don't forget, this is not just your business. The incident at the dock now also affects the Hou Mansion's business. Besides, This time the shop was framed, and it was not just Song Ling'er who did it."

After saying such a rebuttal, Tan Zhixu saw that Gu Huaijing did not answer, and then said: "If someone wants to use this method to deal with Zhiweixuan, then I must stand up and find out the truth."

"You, a woman, are involved in such complicated matters. If something goes wrong..." Gu Huaijing's words were full of worry for Tan Zhixu.

"Gu Huaijing, I am not a flower in the greenhouse."

Tan Zhixu interrupted him with a firm look in his eyes, "I am also capable of protecting myself and the people around me. Furthermore, if this matter is not investigated to the bottom of the matter, will it only affect the capital?"

The atmosphere in the shop was tense and delicate. Gu Huaijing looked at Tan Zhixu's determined eyes and finally had no choice but to compromise: "That's all, but you have to promise me that if there is any danger, you must withdraw immediately and don't fight forcefully."

"Okay, I promise you." Tan Zhixu agreed. After the two reached a consensus, they decided to conduct an in-depth investigation together.

As the night got darker, Gu Yu and Teng Xi waited outside. They felt a little relieved when they heard that there was no movement inside.

But what they didn't know was that Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing were in the secret room, carefully studying the clues collected from the dock.

"Look here, the markings of this batch of goods are consistent with the spices in yesterday's farce." Tan Zhixu pointed to the records in the account book, his eyes shining with wisdom.

Gu Huaijing took the account book with a solemn expression: "It seems that things are more complicated than I thought. We must find the mastermind as soon as possible."

In the following days, Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing began a secret investigation. They disguised themselves and mingled among various people at the dock, collecting clues.

At the same time, in a teahouse in the east of the city, several seemingly ordinary guests were whispering: "Aren't these two afraid of stirring up a hornet's nest and getting burned?"

"You mean Mr. Gu and Miss Tan?"

"That's right. They turn around at the pier all day long. Everyone can see that there is something wrong. Can't those people see it?"

Several people looked at each other and said nothing.

But they didn't see Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing sitting not far behind them.

The two heard the people's comments, but they did not shrink back.

By chance, they learned an important clue from a dock coolie.

This batch of problematic spices is suspected to be related to a mysterious businessman in a remote mountainous area in northern Shaanxi.

So the two decided to go deep into the mountains to find out the truth.

On the eve of their departure, Gu Yu and Teng Xi looked at their master's firm eyes. Although they were worried, they could only support him fully.

"Mr. Gu, girls, you must be careful and send a message back immediately if anything happens." Gu Yu had tears in her eyes and held Tan Zhixu's hand tightly.

Gu Huaijing patted Teng Xi on the shoulder, his eyes full of trust and determination: "I will take good care of Xu Xu's shop and Guyu."

"Don't worry, Master, even if your subordinate dies, nothing will happen to the shop or Miss Guyu."

Teng Xi vowed to promise Gu Huaijing, but Gu Yu gave him a cold look, "Who asked you to die?"

"I……"

Teng Xi was glared at by Gu Yu, and suddenly he didn't know what to say, so he quickly lowered his head.

Seeing this, Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing couldn't help laughing.

As the two went deeper into the mountains, they found more and more clues.

But deep in the mountains and forests, some people couldn't help it.

"It seems that we really encountered hard problems this time."

A hunter in the mountains looked at the two figures retreating and muttered to himself, "I hope they can return safely."

At this time, Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing were in the dense forest.

Here they found some farmers, who told them that the spices actually go to other places for relaxation, and these spices can be used to make smoke.

Tan Zhixu and Gu Huaijing, who went deep into the mountainous area, followed the clues provided by the farmers and walked non-stop on the rugged mountain road.

They discover a hidden warehouse in a dense forest filled with the same spices as in the farce.
