Chapter 112: The industrious ancients

"Yeah." Mu Wuchen put the phone into Gu Xiaoyou's purse and tied the purse around her waist in a natural movement.

Gu Xiaoyou's cheeks were slightly red as she watched Mu Wuchen's well-jointed fingers on her waist, flexibly tying her purse.

"Let's go." Mu Wuchen straightened the tassel on his purse and said softly.

"Well, okay." Gu Xiaoyou put the key in his pocket and followed Mu Wuchen meekly.

The two of them returned to the carriage. Mu Wuchen waited for Gu Xiaoyou to sit firmly before saying in a deep voice: "Go back home."

"Yes, Master." Meng Yu raised his whip, and the carriage rumbled forward steadily on the stone road.

On the carriage, Liang'er was enjoying herself in Zhou's arms.

Gu Xiaoyou gently put Liang'er's legs on the car seat to make him sleep more comfortably.

She stood up and sat down next to Mu Wuchen lightly.

Mu Wuchen glanced at Liang'er lightly and asked softly, "Do you need me to help you recruit people?"

Gu Xiaoyou thought for a while and shook his head: "No need, isn't there a manager in the house? I can trouble him if I have something to do. I can't rely on you for everything. You have already provided a lot of help."

Mu Wuchen's eyes were a little gentle: "I'm not helping you in vain, don't forget, you have to give me half of the money you earn."

"I know, rich man." Gu Xiaoyou wrinkled her nose and snorted softly.

The word "rich" was used again. Mu Wuchen frowned. Why didn't it sound like a good word this time?

"What kind of rich man is..." Before Mu Wuchen could finish his words, Gu Xiaoyou raised his index finger, let out a "shhh" and pointed in the direction of Liang'er.

Mu Wuchen's face darkened, this bold woman dared to boo him.

He glared at her displeasedly, and for the sake of Liang'er sleeping, he spared her temporarily.

Gu Xiaoyou didn't know that he had escaped, so he lifted the car curtain and looked out the window.

The scenery of the capital is so beautiful, I can’t get enough of it.

At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the golden sunshine filled the corner of the sky. A few clouds floated over, just covering the sun.

The sun penetrated the thin clouds and illuminated a warm golden light.

The buildings in the capital were covered with this layer of light, giving this prosperous capital a golden rim.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at the scenery outside the window for a moment, not realizing that she had become the scenery in other people's eyes.

The breeze blew through Gu Xiaoyou's hair and blew it onto Mu Wuchen's face.

Mu Wuchen frowned displeased and stretched out his long fingers to brush away his hair. He was about to remind Gu Xiaoyou to put down the car curtain when he saw the sun shining on her face.

The sunlight outlined half of her face, and her curled eyelashes were clearly visible.

The other half of the face is hidden in the shadows and cannot be seen clearly, but it has a hazy beauty.

The fine hair was flying, and against her bright eyes, everything was quiet and beautiful.

The displeasure in Mu Wuchen's heart dissipated and he quietly stared at Gu Xiaoyou's face.

The carriage was extremely quiet, with only the clatter of horse hooves and the soft sound of the wheels grinding across the ground.

After about two cups of tea, the carriage stopped at the door of the house.

Gu Xiaoyou withdrew her gaze and stretched. Mu Wuchen watched quietly, and it was rare that he did not educate her.

"We're home, let's get off the car."

"Yeah." Mu Wuchen helped Gu Xiaoyou when she got out of the car.

Meng Yu helped Zhou carry Liang'er into the house. Zhou felt blessed and said, "I'll go back and take care of Liang'er first."

"Okay, I'll see you again tomorrow morning." Gu Xiaoyou waved her hand towards Mrs. Zhou, gesturing for her to go in first.

"Are you going home? Or are you going to sit in the house?" Gu Xiaoyou looked at Mu Wuchen and asked.

"I have something to do tomorrow, so I will go home first and come back to see you in a few days. If something happens, just tell Manager Zhang and send him to find me." Mu Wuchen warned carefully.

"Okay, I understand." Gu Xiaoyou nodded seriously.

While talking, Mu Wuchen lifted up his robe on the horse brought by the servant, straddled the horse with a graceful movement, shook the reins and said, "Drive!"

"Goodbye." Gu Xiaoyou waved to him.

Mu Wuchen nodded, took a deep look at Gu Xiaoyou, then turned around and left.

The followers also got on their horses and left behind Mu Wuchen.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at their departing figures. The most handsome and elegant figure among them was Mu Wuchen's. It wasn't until his figure disappeared into the dusk that Gu Xiaoyou looked away and returned to the house.

Manager Zhang immediately came in and asked respectfully: "Miss Gu, do you have any instructions?"

Gu Xiaoyou touched his chin: "It's really something. I want to open a few workshops and need to recruit workers. Do you know where to recruit people?"

"I know, if Miss Gu can trust me, just leave it to me." Manager Zhang said with a low eyebrow.

"Okay, you can help me recruit twenty or thirty people first. Once you've recruited enough people, send them there..." Gu Xiaoyou recalled it for a moment and said vaguely: "It seems to be Anyang Street?"

"You're talking about Lutan Anyang Street," Manager Zhang said smartly.

"Yes, this is the street. When you recruit people, they will gather them in the courtyard number A. This is the key."

Gu Xiaoyou took out the keychain from his pocket and gave one of the two keys numbered A to Manager Zhang.

Manager Zhang took it with both hands and placed it close to his body: "Don't worry, I will get it done as soon as possible."

"Don't worry. The most important thing is that you have some papermaking skills. If you don't know it, it'll be fine. Just be obedient and honest."

After Gu Xiaoyou explained her request, Butler Zhang had a general direction in his mind and said firmly: "I understand, don't worry."

"Well, I'll leave this matter to you." Gu Xiaoyou said cheerfully. Sure enough, he had someone on hand to help him.

Manager Zhang respectfully agreed, escorted Gu Xiaoyou back to the courtyard and then withdrew.

Zhixia was guarding the courtyard gate. When she saw Gu Xiaoyou coming back, she leaned down and said, "My slave, please pay your respects to Miss Gu."

"No need to be polite." Gu Xiaoyou stepped forward and helped her up: "You have been worshiping like this all day long, aren't you tired?"

"Not tired at all." Zhixia replied with a smile.

"Oh, it's better than kneeling down." Gu Xiaoyou shook his head helplessly and strode towards the room.

Zhixia followed behind with small steps and asked softly: "Miss Gu, are you hungry and do you want to eat, or are you tired, can I help you pat your shoulders?"

Gu Xiaoyou stopped speechlessly, this Zhixia was even more nagging than Zhou.

"Stop, stop, stop, I'm not hungry and I'm not tired."

"What can I do for you, slave?" Zhixia asked actively.

Gu Xiaoyou looked at Shang Zhixia with a somewhat longing look, and said helplessly: "Then please get me some hot water, I want to take a bath."

"Okay, just wait a moment, my slave will prepare it for you right away." Zhixia's eyes lit up and she ran to get ready happily.
