nd once again wore an expression of panic."This lowly official has been disrespectful. Please forgive me, Your Highness."Fu Shangyuan was afraid his son would catch a cold, so he had already taken one...Zong Yu paused for a moment before continuing, Fang Jinxiu felt a knot in her chest. He really was his usual self.

I've never noticed Zong Yu being so hesitant and stammering before.

I don't know when it started, but his thoughts seemed to be getting heavier and heavier. Fang Jinshu could feel it, A Yu had always had something on his mind, but he never planned on telling her about it.

Fang Jinshu's lips twitched downward, and her mood was slightly dampened when she thought of this.

Just then, Fu Ming's voice came from the door.

"Sister Jinxiu, are you awake I heard your voices."

"I'm here."

Fu Ming, that fellow, just symbolically knocked on the door. As soon as he finished speaking, her bedroom door was pushed open.

Fang Jinxiu hadn't even had time to pull her hand away from Zong Yu's neck. When they saw someone else arrive, the two quickly separated, but Fu Ming still caught a glimpse of them acting so close.

Fu Ming hurriedly turned his head awkwardly.

"Uh, I, I didn't know you two were...you know..."

"Sorry."

Fan Jinshi's mood wasn't that good right now, and her tone of voice was also rather impolite.

"Since you know it's embarrassing, why don't you go out."

Does he seem a bit embarrassed

Besides, Zongyu is her openly acknowledged husband. What's wrong with them getting intimate in their own room Is that illegal

Fu Ming didn't leave, and Shen Li walked to the courtyard on her own accord to stand guard.

"Well, I'm not here just because nothing is going on, right"

"I'm really not trying to bother you."

"How about I come back later" The sarcasm in his voice was obvious.

Zong Yu, with his thin skin, had already stood up to give Fang Jinxiu a cloak. Although she was dressed warmly and there was a man present, Zong Yu, being careful as ever, still draped a cloak over her.

Fang Jinshu because Zongyu was always unwilling to be honest with her about his true feelings, her attitude towards him slightly cooled down.

I can't help but care.

She took the cloak's belt, saying, "I'll do it myself."

There was nothing wrong with the words, but the atmosphere changed suddenly.

Zone's hand stopped, then retracted.

"I'll go get you something to eat."

He turned and walked out of the room, Fu Ming still puzzled called him, "Hey Zong Gege, you, you just rest assured let me and Jinxiu sister share a room ah."

Isn't he usually very possessive Did he eat something wrong today

"Mr. Fu, why don't you just tell me what you came to see me about" Fang Jinshi didn't want Fu Ming to continue gossiping about her and Zong Yu, so she steered the conversation back on track.

Fu Ming didn't press further. He turned and sat on the stool, pouring himself a cup of tea and sipping it as he spoke.

"Sister Jinxiu, I came to you because I have a big business deal and want to work with you."

It's said that the once-every-ten-years auction in Muxiu City is happening these days. The auction has all sorts of rare and precious treasures, and those who can't afford to pay can also barter items.

As long as the auction house thinks what you offer is relatively equal in value to the auction item, you can get what you want without spending any money.

"This is so interesting, why don't we team up and auction the recipe for rou jia mo Maybe we can get something even better in return."

An auction I never thought there were auctions in ancient times.

Fang Jinxiu was naturally interested, her eyes lit up.

However, she looked at Fu Ming and frowned.

"As a wealthy young master, is that all you have to offer, just a recipe for snacks"

And she's the one who sold it to him. To this day, Fu Ming hasn't settled the three thousand taels of silver with her yet.

This is an attempt to get something for nothing, swindling her into going to the auction to sell the recipe. It would save him the trouble of opening a shop and making money himself, and it would also save him from having to give her that sum of silver.

So you're making half of it directly

He's really good at calculating.

It's a shame.

Fang Jinshu pulled out the deed for the steamed bun recipe from her bosom and, right before Fu Ming, tore it to shreds.

"You! What do you mean by this" Fu Ming questioned in surprise.

She smirked and replied, "Didn't Young Master Fu say that as soon as I entered Muchu City, he would immediately settle the three thousand taels of silver with me"

"But it seems like you're not really serious about giving me money."

"If you don't pay, this contract is invalid."

"I've decided, I'm not selling it."

Fu Mingqi's eyes widened in shock, and he jumped to his feet, sending the teacup in his hand crashing to the floor.

"Fang Jinxiu, how can you be so two-faced!"

I didn't say I wouldn't give you money, you weren't awake the whole time before.s were indeed very strange. Logically, he was the person who spent the most time in that room and the one who inhaled the most medicine.Fang Jinshu grabbed his wrist and felt his pulse, carefully exam...
