Gu Dingyu was outside the door, scratching his head in embarrassment, preparing to wait outside for Jiang Xueyan to change clothes.

The face of the woman in red suddenly flashed in his mind, and he turned around and pushed open the door.

"Yanyan, wait a minute!"

Before he finished speaking, a coat carrying the fragrance of his daughter's home was placed on his head.

Jiang Xueyan quickly pulled up her middle coat to cover her shoulders, and rolled her eyes very gracefully.

This damn man!

She was just about to praise him for being quite romantic, but in the blink of an eye, he suddenly barged in. If she hadn't reacted quickly, he would have almost looked away.

"Say, what's wrong?"

Gu Dingyu was so frightened that he did not dare to move until Jiang Xueyan stepped forward and took off the coat covering his head.

In front of him, Jiang Xueyan put her coat back on and looked at her with beautiful eyes.

Only then did Gu Dingyu realize his rashness and quickly explained.

"Yanyan, forgive me. I'm really not being a hooligan. I suddenly remembered that the store I bought clothes from today was quite strange. I haven't had time to check the clothes I bought in her store. After I check and confirm that there is no problem, you can wear them again.

"

"The store that sells clothes is weird? Are you talking about Pinyi Pavilion?"

Jiang Xueyan remembered that she had seen this store in many places during her travels. The owner behind the store was indeed capable, and branches had opened in small towns in the south.

"Exactly, Yanyan also knows?"

Gu Dingyu was surprised by Jiang Xueyan's words, thinking that she often traveled around the world and was well-informed, which was normal.

"Well, I have heard about it a little bit, but I have never set foot in it. I heard that people who buy clothes in Pinyi Pavilion are very obsessed with shopping in her store, but in some places, young girls often disappear inexplicably. At first, people just

It was suspected that bandits were causing trouble, until later someone said that these girls had one thing in common, they were all guests of Pinyi Pavilion. Later, the bosses of Pinyi Pavilion refused to accept the slander and insisted on letting the officers and soldiers investigate, but nothing was found.

The rumors naturally stopped. Strangely enough, there has been no news of the girl disappearing in recent times. It is probably because the bandits knew about it and alerted the officers and soldiers, so it is time to stop."

Jiang Xueyan recalled the places she had traveled to, and she did not think that the disappearance of the girl was related to a store selling clothes. This was simply nonsense.

Most of the people who can afford to sell clothes in Pinyi Pavilion are girls from wealthy families. They are either rich or noble. How can they not have a few capable servants to protect them.

How dare a clothing store blatantly kidnap those young ladies from respectable families? Isn’t this because there is no silver in this place?

After listening to Jiang Xueyan's words, Gu Dingyu fell into deep thought.

Pinyige's business model is inherently strange, and it is not unreasonable for the public to be suspicious of it.

I'm just afraid that Pinyi Pavilion will shout "catch the thief" and confuse people's hearing.

After all, which clothing store would use incense from Miao territory? Is it really worth it just to sell clothes?

As for today’s plate of snacks, Fan Yatou deliberately said that she didn’t like salty food, but in fact, she was adding spices to her words.

Seeing Gu Dingyu immersed in thought, Jiang Xueyan tugged on his sleeve.

"What are you thinking about? Mother Afan is asking us to have dinner."

Gu Dingyu's thoughts were brought back, he smiled and shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I just think that for the sake of safety, you should wait for me to clean it before wearing it."

Jiang Xueyan stretched out her index finger and poked Gu Dingyu's head gently, saying coquettishly: "You also want to wash women's clothes? Your hands are for treating people!"

Gu Dingyu smiled naively and said: "The hands that treat people can also wash my wife's clothes and wash her feet. My hands are omnipotent in front of my wife. They can be used wherever they are needed."

Jiang Xueyan blushed and reached out to pat Gu Dingyu's face: "Who is your wife? Who said she wants to marry you?"

"Okay, okay, I won't marry you if I don't want to marry you. I'll marry you after I've saved enough money."

Jiang Xueyan rolled her eyes at him and looked at his innocent smile, which was particularly beautiful.

Mrs. Wang set up the dishes in the kitchen and invited everyone to come for dinner. However, she saw that Mr. Huaigu had been standing by a carriage and would not go in to eat or lead the carriage away.

Wang was curious and walked forward: "Why don't you go in to eat, young man? The cold wind blowing outside is not good for your health."

"Oh, third aunt, don't worry about me. There is a friend of mine in the carriage. He has difficulty moving and doesn't like being around people. I'll keep an eye on him here. Third aunt, you can go eat and don't worry about me."
