What made Gu Chan speechless was.

As soon as she said this, the six young ladies sitting at the table were surprised for a while, and then their faces changed.

The eldest daughter of the rice shop family apologized with a smile, "Brother, I am not feeling well, so I won't stay here to chat with you guys any longer. I will go back first, you guys enjoy yourself!"

"Ouch! I have something to do too. I have to go back first."

"I have to go to the temple to burn incense tomorrow, so I'm leaving first."

"I have a blind date tomorrow! You can't stay up too late tonight, you guys chat!"

As the eldest daughter of the rice shop family stood up, the other five daughters also found excuses to leave.

Gu Chan laughed and didn't care at all.

That's why she chose to hit a straight ball just now.

There is no need for her to make friends with timid people, let alone waste her time talking to them.

But once they left, Wan Feiyan was the one who felt embarrassed.

She also didn't expect that these five best sisters would choose not to give her face and abandon her.

So, she angrily slapped the table and said, "What a bunch of disloyal bastards, you're leaving just like that. I'm so pissed off."

"It's normal for women. You'll get used to it." Wan Peng said with a faint smile.

"Sister Feiyan, you don't have to be angry. They have their own difficulties. After all, I am the Ninth Prince's man. I came to Jiangnan with a mission. It is best not to have anything to do with me, so as to avoid getting into trouble. I also remind you two that if you want to make friends with me in the future, you must be mentally prepared to get into trouble." Gu Chan said frankly.

The brother and sister fell silent for a moment, secretly considering the matter in their minds.

Gu Chan stood up and said, "Then we'll go first. You two siblings can discuss this slowly!"

"Gu Chan..." Wan Feiyan opened her mouth to say something, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

Gu Chan smiled faintly, clasped her fists and bowed to the two of them, then said goodbye and left with Ma Zheng.

After they left, Wan Feiyan looked at her brother and said, "What do you think?"

"As the saying goes, wealth and honor are sought in danger. Everyone in Tiancang knows this. The Ninth Prince is both civil and military, and is the most outstanding of all the princes. Now he is stationed on the border. Once the border receives relief money and becomes rich in the future, the emperor will certainly grant him the border as a fiefdom, and then he will become the most favorable competitor for the throne." Wan Peng analyzed secretly with a grim face.

"So what you mean is that if our Wan family wants to become prosperous in the future, we need to choose sides now?" Wan Feiyan asked in surprise.

"Yes, in my opinion, choice is more important than hard work. If we make the right choice in this step, the future of Wan family will be bright." Wan Peng clenched his fist, slammed it on the table, and said in a firm tone,

Wan Feiyan was speechless, with cold sweat oozing out of her forehead.

There is no doubt that she did not deny what her brother said, but one thing is that if they made the wrong choice, the Wan family would be doomed in the future.

So what choice to make next is the most important thing.

It was difficult to make a decision for a while, Wan Feiyan said in a dilemma, "Then let's go back immediately and discuss it with mom! By the way, let's go to dad's spirit tablet to ask for a fortune and see what dad would let me choose in his afterlife."

"Okay, let's go!" Wan Peng nodded.

After saying this, the brother and sister did not linger any longer and immediately left Wanyue Tower and rushed back to the Wan family.

On the other side, on the main road of Jiangnan City.

At this time, Gu Chan was taking Ma Zheng shopping. They were shopping as they walked. Gu Chan was responsible for buying while Ma Zheng was responsible for carrying things. They were just like a pair of childhood sweethearts, looking the envy of others.

Ma Zheng was so tired that he was panting and said, "Don't buy it, Boss. I can hardly lift it anymore."

"I bought it for you, but you can't even lift it? Look at you, you're so sloppy all day long. Don't you know how to dress yourself up?" Gu Chan said unhappily.

Ma Zheng laughed as he listened. Although he was tired, he was happy in his heart. This was exactly what the saying goes: tired but happy.

Gu Chan really doted on him. She walked to a shoe shop in front and stopped. She went in and bought a pair of shoes made of very good material. She stuffed them into his arms and said, "If you go to a big event with me in the future, wear this pair of good shoes. If you go with me to be a beggar, you can still wear the pair of shoes you have now."

"Yes, boss." Ma Zheng said happily.

"Let me see if there's anything else to buy. Oh, by the way, you need to buy two sets of underwear. The underwear you're wearing now stinks. Change it for me when we get back. Throw away the one you're wearing now." Gu Chan said.

Ma Zheng was so moved that he said with tears in his eyes, "Boss, you are so kind. With you in my life, I will never find a wife again! I might as well not get married and just follow you for the rest of my life."

"Go to hell, I can't take care of you forever. You have to learn to grow up on your own in the future and can't always rely on me. What will you do if we are separated one day?" Gu Chan said angrily.

"No! Even if we break up, there will be a time when we will be together again! Besides, you take care of me now, and when I grow up and become capable, I will take care of you!" Ma Zheng said solemnly.

Gu Chan looked at his serious expression and felt warm in her heart, with an indescribable feeling.

But she couldn't explain what this feeling was exactly.

After that, she simply stopped talking and went to buy two new sets of underwear for Ma Zheng. Then they went back to the inn to rest, talking and laughing.

Early the next morning.

Gu Chan and Ma Zheng changed into yesterday's beggar clothes, quietly slipped out from the back door of Wanyuanfang, and continued to find a place to sit down and beg on East Street.

Noon.

Just when Gu Chan and Ma were on the street, performing crosstalk to earn money.

Di Lin and Yuan Jie, who had gone to the north of Jiangnan City to look for Wei Xing and others, finally returned safely.

But this time when they came back, they couldn't find Gu Chan and the others at all, which really made them anxious.

Fortunately, Wan Peng found the two in time and told them what happened to Gu Chan and the other two becoming beggars on the street.

After the two learned about this, Di Lin couldn't help but wonder, "What's going on with the shopkeeper? Why did you suddenly want to become a beggar?"

"I don't know either, I just heard from them that we can get useful information this way." Wan Peng said with his hands spread out.

"Then it seems we can only wait here for them to come back," said Dillin.

Wan Peng nodded without comment, "You have to keep this secret and not spread it to others. After all, not many people know that they have become beggars."

"Okay! Thank you, Young Master. Let's go back to our rooms and have some rest first." Di Lin clasped his fists and thanked him.

Wan Peng waved his hand indifferently.

Then the two of them stopped talking, and Di Lin and Yuan Jie went back to their rooms to rest.

Wan Peng also went to do his own thing.
