Chapter 102: Decided to go to the capital

"I don't know if Mu Wuchen has arrived in the capital." Gu Xiaoyou muttered, thinking about something absentmindedly.

It wasn't until the mung bean soup hit the pot that she came back to her senses.

Gu Xiaoyou hurriedly put out the fire, and took a rag to clean the stove.

There was a knock on the door. Gu Xiaoyou heard it and shouted towards the door: "Wait a moment, I'll be here right away."

She hurriedly threw away the rag and walked towards the door.

"Who is it?"

"It's me." A gentle male voice came.

Gu Xiaoyou recognized the person's voice, opened the door, and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Chen, you are such a rare visitor, please come inside."

"Doctor Gu is so polite." Mr. Chen said politely.

Gu Xiaoyou turned sideways to let Mr. Chen in, and asked curiously: "Did Mr. Chen come here for something?"

"It's true, I'm here specifically to congratulate Doctor Gu." Mr. Chen said with a smile on his face.

"Congratulations?" Gu Xiaoyou asked without knowing why.

She hasn't done much recently. Could it be that Mr. Chen is here to congratulate her on the reconstruction of her house?

"Yes, congratulations on becoming the richest man in Qingcheng County." Mr. Chen said cheerfully.

"The richest man?" Gu Xiaoyou opened his eyes wide in surprise and pointed to his nose in disbelief.

"Yes, doesn't Doctor Gu know it yet?" Mr. Chen showed an expression even more surprised than Gu Xiaoyou's.

"Your shop already sells paper products and medicines from Qingcheng County, and the express delivery station is the only one in the country. The tax items reported to the yamen by the Chamber of Commerce, Gu Shenyi's shop pays the most."

"Really?" Gu Xiaoyou blinked. Unexpectedly, in a few months, she would become the richest man in Qingcheng County.

Mr. Chen nodded and said affirmatively: "I have been the magistrate of Qingcheng County for so many years, and this is the first time I have seen such a large amount of tax items."

"Hehe, I'm still far behind the real rich people." Gu Xiaoyou's eyes widened with laughter, and she felt happy in her heart.

If there had been a Forbes list in ancient times, maybe her name would have been in the top twenty.

"Qingcheng County is indeed not as good as the big cities." Mr. Chen said in agreement. Suddenly he seemed to think of something and said with a smile: "Why don't you go to the capital to show off your skills? Maybe you can break into a new world."

.”

"Beijing..." Gu Xiaoyou suddenly showed a heart-beating expression after hearing Master Chen's words.

Master Chen observed Gu Xiaoyou's expression and saw that his goal had been achieved. He saluted Gu Xiaoyou and said, "Mr. Gu, think about it carefully. I'll take my leave."

"Thank you, Master Chen. Let's go slowly." Gu Xiaoyou sent Master Chen out and thought thoughtfully.

In the evening, Mrs. Zhou saw that Gu Xiaoyou had not returned yet, so she went to the house next door in person. She saw that the house was completely dark. She felt panicked and called anxiously: "Xiaoyou, Xiaoyou, are you there?"

?”

After a while, a gentle female voice came from the kitchen: "I'm here."

Zhou looked around and saw the lights on in the kitchen, so she walked over boldly.

Gu Xiaoyou lit the candle and smiled at her.

"Why are you staying here so late at night?" Mrs. Zhou patted her chest and said angrily.

"I was thinking about something and forgot about time." Gu Xiaoyou scratched his head in embarrassment and walked out of the kitchen holding a candle.

Zhou asked curiously: "What should you think about in the kitchen?"

Gu Xiaoyou paused while holding the candle, and said hesitantly: "I'm wondering whether to go to the capital."

"Capital?" Zhou said in surprise.

"Well, Master Chen came today to congratulate me on becoming the richest man in Qingcheng County, and suggested that I go to the capital to develop..." Gu Xiaoyou briefly explained the day's events to Zhou, and expressed her hesitation.

"I'm a little excited, but I don't know if I can be like here when I get to the capital. Sister Zhou, do you think I should go?"

Zhou was silent for a moment and said softly: "I can't say for others, but if it's Xiaoyou, I believe you can develop well wherever you go."

"It turns out that I am so powerful in Sister Zhou's heart."

Gu Xiaoyou smiled sheepishly and suddenly felt a surge of strength in her heart.

"Well, I'll go to the capital to try my luck." Gu Xiaoyou smiled.

"Okay, I support you." Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "I will take care of the shop for you, so you can go without worries."

"Who said I have to go by myself? I have to take you and Liang'er with me to the capital." Gu Xiaoyou was stunned and said in surprise: "Or do you want to stay here and don't want to go to the capital with me?

"

Zhou's eyes lit up and she said happily: "Really? You are willing to take Liang'er and me with you."

"Of course, I said that we are a family, and a family must be neat and orderly." Gu Xiaoyou said matter-of-factly.

Mrs. Zhou hugged Gu Xiaoyou and said happily: "That's great, I will still cook for you when I get to the capital."

"Hey, sister Zhou, stop hugging me, I'm going to be strangled to death by you."

Mrs. Zhou quickly let go of Gu Xiaoyou and said dotingly: "Okay, okay, I won't hug you anymore, let's go home."

"Well, okay." Gu Xiaoyou carried the candlestick and returned to the next door side by side with Mrs. Zhou.

"Sister Zhou, since we have decided to leave, we must arrange our affairs in Qingcheng County before leaving. You will be responsible for packing, and I will arrange all the business."

"Okay, leave it to me." Zhou responded: "I'll tell Liang'er the news."

"Well, I'll go back to my room first."

As the sky darkened, the two sisters took action separately...

The next morning, Gu Xiaoyou had a simple breakfast and walked towards Youlian Paper Shop.

In the paper shop.

Yang He was cleaning the floor. When he looked up and saw a familiar figure, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Ever since the fire broke out in the house, Yang He had not seen Gu Xiaoyou. The few times he went there, there were only workers building the house.

I asked Mr. Zhou about it, and it was said that he was recovering from his injuries elsewhere, but he refused to reveal more.

Now seeing Gu Xiaoyou again, Yang He forgot his shyness and greeted him happily: "Boss Gu, you are here, how is your health?"

"Thank you for your concern, I'm fine." Gu Xiaoyou smiled.

Yang He looked at Gu Xiaoyou for a few times and saw her rosy complexion. He felt relieved: "It's good that you're fine. I know that when something happens to you, I... no, all of us will be worried."

"I'm fine." Gu Xiaoyou smiled and patted Yang He on the shoulder.

As soon as the familiar action was performed, Yang He felt a little sour in his heart: "Well, as long as you're fine."

Gu Xiaoyou smiled and said seriously: "By the way, I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Yang He asked seriously.

Gu Xiaoyou took out a few pieces of paper from his sleeve pocket: "I wrote this, please read it."
