Feeling Gu Lin's gaze, Gu Cheng's body stiffened involuntarily.

But he soon regained his composure and explained righteously: "You are still young, it is not suitable for you to drink too much."

I was thinking that with such wonderful wine, I should close the door and share this beauty with my wife.

At night, there were bursts of noise coming from Gu Cheng and Wang's room, but fortunately the children lived far away, otherwise Wang would be ashamed to face them.

The next morning, Gu Qingzhi felt that her mother was a little strange today, but she looked at Wang's face and said, "Mother, you look good today!"

After hearing this, Wang touched her face in confusion. The scene of Gu Lang tormenting her for most of the night last night came to her mind. Her cheeks suddenly turned red like the sunset. She asked hesitantly, "Really?"

Gu Qingzhi nodded seriously and replied, "Really, mother does look very good today."

I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t observed her carefully before, but Gu Qingzhi always feels that Wang’s complexion is very good today. Her fair face is flushed, just like a ripe peach, fresh and juicy.

Gu Qingzhi said seriously, "By the way, mother, I heard that wine has the effect of beautifying the skin. Remember to drink a glass every night before going to bed."

"Is it really so?" Wang stared at her daughter with suspicion.

"Yeah, yes, that's what the book says." Gu Qingzhi responded vaguely.

In fact, this was something she heard from the ladies when they were chatting in the palace in her previous life. Now that she saw her mother like this, she began to believe it.

However, Wang suddenly frowned and said: "But I heard from your father that wine seems to be very expensive..." "Well... maybe it's true.

But mother, what's the harm? We brewed these ourselves.

As long as there are wild grapes on the mountain, you can have as much wine as you want, right?

But if this wine can keep my mother beautiful and healthy forever, then it will all be worth it!" Wang was amused by Gu Qingzhi and said with a smile, "You are so sweet!"

Gu Cheng walked in from outside with a smile on his face, looked at his beautiful wife, and said with fiery eyes,

"Yun Niang, just drink it without worry. At worst, I can go up the mountain to pick more grapes and ask Qing'er to make more wine."

Wang couldn't avoid his gaze and couldn't help but glare at him, cursing in her heart, this man is so frivolous, she shouted last night that she didn't want it anymore, but he kept coaxing her and said it would be over soon, and as a result, her waist is still sore until now!

Gu Qingzhi inexplicably felt very full. Why did she suddenly feel that there was a sticky atmosphere between her parents?

No, she is redundant and needs to leave quickly!

However, she still reminded Gu Cheng: "Dad, don't forget that you still have to go to the mountain goods store office today." After saying that, Gu Qingzhi quickly left the kitchen, fearing that if she stayed for another second she would be looked down upon by her father.

The temporary office of the Mountain Goods Store’s standing committee was set up at the Gu Family Ancestral Hall.

The Gu Family Ancestral Hall was just renovated and expanded a few years ago. The place and yard are large enough and quite suitable for holding business.

Gu Qingzhi came to the yard in a hurry.

At this moment, everyone in the yard was packing up their tools and preparing to go up the mountain.

During this period of time, Gu Yan has been busy with the affairs of the mountain goods store and the construction of the pharmacy. He can only go up the mountain once every other day to see if there are any prey caught in the traps so that he can catch them back in time.

Gu Qingzhi devoted herself to the work of processing medicinal materials and had not gone up the mountain for several days.

"Qingqing, the people from the mountain goods store asked me yesterday to go up the mountain with them today to take a look. Do you want to go up the mountain?"

Since the herbs were brought home, Qingqing has been concentrating on processing them at home. Until yesterday, she went out with everyone to join in the fun at the ancestral hall. She was so well-behaved and sensible that it made people feel distressed.

Gu Yan thought that since there was nothing special to do today, he might as well take his sister up the mountain to play.

In addition, there were several types of missing medicinal herbs, so he had asked Gu Qingzhi to draw a diagram and distribute it to everyone in the family.

If you are lucky enough to come across these medicinal herbs in the mountains, you can dig them up and bring them back.

Even though there is little hope.

The same is true.

So far, there has been no harvest.

However, for some reason today, he suddenly wanted to take his sister up the mountain. Perhaps he thought that with his sister's luck, they might be able to gain something.

"Brother, is this convenient?" Gu Qingzhi actually wanted to go up the mountain to look for medicinal herbs.

Her brother had been busy these past few days, so she hadn't made the request.

She was too embarrassed to say it out loud, as she felt that this matter should not interfere with her brother's work.

From what she said, it sounded like she wanted to go together?

"Today is not busy. I am mainly taking Aunt Zeng, Uncle He and others to the mountain to familiarize them with the environment and teach them some skills in picking and finding mountain products."

"Ah, do you have to teach me this?" Gu Qingzhi looked at Gu Yan in surprise. These were rare experiences. Gu Yan gently stroked her little head and explained with a smile: "This is nothing special. Since the Shanhuo Store has decided to do it, it must do its best."

Hearing this, Gu Qingzhi's admiration for Gu Yan instantly deepened. Today's brother is truly selfless!

“Well, I have already discussed with my eldest brother that we should go up the mountain to cut more wood today.

From now on, we won’t have to go up the mountain to pick fruits and mountain products every day.

This way, there will be more time.

By then, the pharmacy can be completed as soon as possible."

They had already discussed it yesterday, and now that the mountain goods store has been successfully opened, they have been able to free up a lot of work on hand.

After Gu Qingzhi's pharmacy is built, Gu Yan will be able to focus on returning to school. After all, he has been away from the academy for two years. If he wants to take part in the imperial examination next year, it may still be a bit difficult.

As for the matters on the other side of the fence, they were left to Gu Lin to handle.

The group walked towards Dongfeng Mountain. Gu Hao looked up at his brother who was walking in front of him and asked, "Brother, should we wait for them at the foot of the mountain?"

Gu Yan shook his head and answered directly: "No, we will go directly to the mountain, and we will naturally see them on the mountain.

I already told them yesterday that we can just meet up at one of the places."

A group of five people and a donkey were walking slowly on the mountain path.
