My spirit appeared on the road to exile, and I was treated as an ancestor.

Chapter 139 The Lu Family Faces Another Trouble
Holding the remaining half-bottle, Mrs. Xu was delighted and thought to herself: If this drink could be sold in a wine shop under the Xu family's name, how good the business would be!

Pity.
Knowing what Xu was thinking, Gu Xingzhao couldn't help but sigh, "No wonder she's surnamed Xu; the first thing she thinks of is making money."

At this moment, Lu Xingyao finally reacted, stumbled over, and squeezed into the tent with difficulty, only to find a pile of empty bottles.

Inside the tent, everyone was drinking and laughing heartily.

Lu Xingyao was heartbroken. It turned out that the Immortal Wine wasn't something he had all along. Waaah!

When Gu Xingzhao saw him rush in, his hurt little eyes were quite endearing, but looking at him made her feel inexplicably guilty, so she simply stopped looking.

Lu Qing wanted another bite of Maotai, but the people around him tried to dissuade him. When they couldn't persuade him, they simply took it away and wouldn't let him touch it again.

This wine is really too strong. The old man is getting on in years, so he has to take it easy.

Gu Xingzhao was very satisfied with the feedback he received from the Lu family, and immediately took a bag of samples to discuss with He Zhen.

"You want to open a beverage shop?" He Zhen asked in surprise.

Gu Xingzhao placed the items on the table. "To be precise, since you're opening a beverage shop, I brought these items. You can try them."

Looking at the table full of drinks, He Zhen hesitated for a moment, then picked up the blue cup and brought it to her lips. The wine had a sweet aroma and was not as spicy as ordinary wine. Many ladies and young women from wealthy families in the capital loved wine. If this beverage shop could open, it would surely attract many distinguished customers.

She immediately tried the others, each with its own unique characteristics, all of which suited the tastes of people in the capital. She had never seen any beverage shop sell these before; this was unique in the capital, and the business would definitely be good once the shop opened!

He Zhen's interest was immediately piqued by Gu Xingzhao, "I'll go look at shops tomorrow, and if there's a suitable one, I'll buy it directly!"

The previous fireworks shop was supported by the Xu family, who also provided the shop's staff. However, this time, she has to run the beverage shop herself, which will require a lot of effort.

Gu Xingzhao smiled and said, "Take your time, there's no rush."

He Zhen added, "The items and account books have been brought into the house. Please take a look."

She commissioned a full set of gold-inlaid jade headdresses to be made, which were very exquisite. She just didn't know if the gods would like them, and thinking about this made her a little nervous.

Gu Xingzhao went next door and took a look. He found that there were significantly more items this time than last time. There were two large boxes, mostly filled with gold jewelry and jade artifacts. They were dazzling and looked very valuable!

To her surprise, there was a red and white dress and a complete set of gold and jade headdress on the dressing table. The workmanship was exquisite and the jade was of very good quality, which must have taken a lot of effort.

Clearly, this was prepared for himself.

It has to be said that He Zhen has a really good eye. Just looking at this outfit, no girl would dislike it. At least, she was very tempted and couldn't help but want to try it on.

The moment that thought crossed her mind, a flash of white light appeared, and the clothes and headdress on the bed were gone!
Gu Xingzhao was startled and turned to look around, only to find that her head had become much heavier. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch her head and was surprised to find that her sleeves had become larger. She paused for a moment and looked at the bronze mirror on the dressing table.

In the bronze mirror, a woman with her hair styled in a cloud-like bun and wearing a red and white dress was seen.
Gu Xingzhao: "Holy crap!"

The system never mentioned that its remote object retrieval function could automatically change clothes!
The key question is: where did my original clothes go? Why are they gone?
[Reply to host: Your control over your willpower is not yet mature enough, causing your clothes to return to their original positions. Please rest assured.]

Gu Xingzhao: "What do you mean by 'original position'?"

[Your modern wardrobe.]

Gu Xingzhao: "...You bring it back to me."

We're sorry, due to space limitations, we are unable to execute this instruction for you.

Gu Xingzhao gave a forced smile. "Then how am I supposed to go back? Wear this?"

The system fell silent. Gu Xingzhao cursed under his breath. That damn system was playing dead again. By the time he got back to the modern world, his clothes would probably be tattered to shreds!

At this moment, He Zhen's voice came, her tone restrained and uneasy, "God, have you seen the things in the room? Do you like them?"

Gu Xingzhao looked at himself in the bronze mirror, not thinking about what would happen after returning to the modern world. Just looking at it this way, the red and white combination was very nice, and the fabric was also very comfortable against his skin.

Before this, she had never worn Hanfu. Although she had tried draping a bed sheet over herself when she was little, the feeling of wearing this kind of clothing was completely different from draping a bed sheet over herself.

I got to experience it for myself today.

She took a few photos with her phone to remember the occasion, and said with a smile, "The clothes are very nice, I like them very much, thank you for your trouble."

He Zhen was pleasantly surprised, "I'm glad you like it."

She was initially worried that the gods would scold her for meddling, but she also wanted to thank them, so she took money from her 30% and went to the best goldsmiths and clothing shops in the capital to buy this outfit.

It was a pity she couldn't see what the deity looked like, but she thought the deity must be extremely beautiful, and this dress would suit her perfectly.

Gu Xingzhao glanced at herself in the mirror a few more times. The thought of returning to the modern world and having her clothes turned into a pile of rags pained her. However, no matter how painful it was, she couldn't go back naked. Although no one could see her, she just couldn't get over the mental hurdle.

She tidied up the two boxes, preparing to take them back to the modern world, when she heard Lu Qing call out to her, "Ancestor, are you still alive?"

Judging from his tone, he was very anxious, and it wasn't hard to guess that something must have happened.

Gu Xingzhao: "I'm here. What happened?"

Lu Qing: "Prince Su has captured You Tang and Ming Yuan, and left a letter asking to see me. I need to go there now."

"Okay, I'll be there shortly."

Gu Xingzhao dared not delay and hurriedly returned to Ji County.

I thought the Lu family must be in chaos right now, but to my surprise, everyone was very calm. Although Xu and Lu Yang were anxious and guilty, they regretted that they shouldn't have been so greedy and lost their daughter.

At this moment, the couple dared not utter a sound, afraid of causing trouble, and waited for the old man to speak.

Lu Zhou read the letter and frowned. "Father, Prince Su is a wolf in sheep's clothing. If we go, I'm afraid we won't be able to escape. Why don't you let your son go in your place?"

Lu Qing shook his head. "He wants to see me. If you go, Tang'er might not be able to come back."

Lu Zhou: "Then my son will go with you!"

Lu Qing: "That's not appropriate. You stay here and keep an eye on the others."

Lu Yang opened his mouth, wanting to say he would go himself, but Xu grabbed his arm.

Madam Xu was anxious, but her mind remained clear. "Father has his own plans. Don't cause trouble."

Lu Qing originally wanted to go by himself, but he was worried that his old bones wouldn't be able to handle it alone. After thinking for a while, he looked at his youngest son.

As everyone knows, the youngest son is sickly, so Prince Su probably won't be too wary of him.

"Xingyan, come with your father."

Lu Xingyan was somewhat surprised, but replied, "Yes."

Lu Zhou and the others were taken aback. Why did the old man bring his third brother along for such a dangerous trip to see Prince Su?
