t he had crossed into ancient times."Why did it have to become Wu Dalang, of all things!"Oh my God, are you trying to kill me!Wu Chao cursed at the heavens with a string of insults, and after showerin..."That's right, from now on you're my housekeeper."

Gao Jinlian stared fixedly as Wu Chao walked toward the backyard. For some reason, at this moment, her heart felt like it had been hit by something!

A indescribable wonder, rippling through my heart like waves...

Shortly after, Bai Sheng arrived at Wu Chao's backyard with several of his men, carrying things and looking very hurried.

Soon, Wu Chao set up equipment for distilling liquor in his backyard. Although distillation was already known during the Tang Dynasty, it didn't become widespread until the Song Dynasty. Many wine shops had these distilling tools.

Bai Sheng and a few others thought that Wu Chao was just craving alcohol and wanted to brew some for himself, so they didn't think much of it. They took the money and left happily.

After they left, Gao Jinhua came down from the second floor. She discovered that her husband was not making wine, but adding some herbs and flowers to it.

Although she had many questions in her heart, Gao Jinlian didn't open her mouth to ask. She just stood quietly behind Wu Chao, watching him.

In Gao Jinlian's eyes, the men she usually looked down upon had become particularly charming for some reason, always making her want to get closer.

In no time, a very rich aroma filled the air! It was a blend of floral sweetness and the refreshing scent of herbs.

Gao Jinlian is becoming more and more curious about Wu Chao.

Under her watchful gaze, Wu Chao finally distilled a liquid as clear as water. Although the amount was small, it smelled exceptionally fragrant.

Wu Chao divided this transparent liquid into two small porcelain bottles, and he handed one of the small porcelain bottles to Gao Jinlian.

"My lady, this bottle contains Yaochi Jade Dew, something your kind loves the most. On a daily basis, you can apply a drop or two to yourself and ensure an intoxicating fragrance."

Actually, what Wuchou was holding wasn't anything special, just distilled plant essence liquid, which is basically just ordinary perfume.

Although the workmanship is a bit rough, things that are rare are valuable. Once the perfume is released, it will surely be a huge success and bring in a lot of profits.

"My lord, are you giving such a precious thing to me"

Looking at Gao Jinlian's astonished expression, Wu Chao said naturally: "Of course, good things should be left to my own wife."

Gao Jinlian clutched the small bottle tightly in her hand, pressing it against her plump, towering chest. At this moment, she felt like being surrounded by a fireplace on a cold winter day, warm and comforting.

Meanwhile, the Lion Tower.

This Lion's Tower is a famous restaurant in Yanggu County, and it is also the source of Xi Menhe's products.

"Ping!"

Xi Men Hu smashed the porcelain bowl to the ground!

His eyes widened, and he roared at his servant: "What are you saying Did Wu Dalang actually let those scoundrels sell all the cakes!"

"Onion cakes are selling for 50 mon each! Have all these people gone mad with hunger"

Ximen Hu's servant bowed his head, sweating profusely. He had never seen his master so angry before.

"Sir, I don't know what tricks Wu Dalang used to make Bai Sheng and those scoundrels behave themselves. And he even gave them a share of the money he earned."

Wang Po sat beside Xi Men Qing, sipping wine. When she heard the servant's words, a sharp glint flashed in her sinister eyes.

"A reckless spender with a righteous facade, he's deceiving people. I never expected that Wu Dalang, the baker, to have such cunning."

Ximen Hu asked Wang Po, "Auntie! If Wudalang keeps using this method, we won't be able to get our hands on him."

Wang Po smiled condescendingly: "If Wudalang were surrounded by those well-born young men, we really wouldn't be able to deal with him at this time. But Bai Sheng and his gang of hooligans are full of holes all over. Dealing with them is easy."

Wang Po used her slender fingernails to pick up a piece of mutton from the dish. She put it into her shriveled mouth and chewed it slowly, smiling wickedly as she ate.

These hooligans are led by Bai Sheng. As long as we deal with Bai Sheng, the rest will be easy.

"If I'm not mistaken, Bai Sheng, who received the money, is probably now gambling at a casino. We only need to use some tactics and we can turn this around to our advantage!"

Xi Men Hu was impatient. He eagerly asked, "Mother, please tell me!"

Wang Po leaned into Ximen Qing's ear and whispered a few words. As he listened, Ximen Qing's eyes grew brighter and brighter. He then slammed his hand on the table and said, "Good! That's how we'll do it!"

At the end of Changchun Lane, there is a casino.

This casino is also owned by Xi Men He.

However, running a casino is a risky business and cannot be done openly. Therefore, only a very small number of people know that it belongs to Ximen He.

At this time, at the back door of the casino, Simon鶴's servant was talking to a tall, dark man.

This burly black man is the casino owner, whose name is Niu Er.

Niu'er patted his chest and said, "Rest assured, I'll take care of this. I guarantee that Bai Sheng will lose so badly he won't even have his pants left!"

The house servant shook his head slightly and said, "His tattered trousers are only worth a few coins. The official's intention is to have him not only lose all his money but also owe ten liang!"

Niu Er nodded and turned away. Gambling is just money going from one hand to the other, and in less than half an hour, Bai Sheng was already being dragged out of the casino by three or five burly men like a duck with its neck twisted!

"Spare my life, spare my life!" Bai Sheng was pressed to the ground by the strongman and struggled constantly.

Niu Er walked over, clutching a butcher's knife in his hand, and pressed the sharp blade directly against Bai Sheng's face.

“White Mouse, you should know the rules of the casino. Now you owe me ten taels! Such a large sum of money, you'll never be able to pay it back in your lifetime, so I'll just cut off the meat from your body to settle the debt! One jin of meat costs 100 wen, see if you have enough for 100 jin!”

Bai Sheng was so scared that he peed his pants and struggled frantically: "Brother Niu, Brother Niu! Let's talk it out. This little bit of flesh on me can't be sold!"

Niu Er lowered his head and stared at Bai Sheng: "Bai Sheng, I'll just ask you, do you want to die or live"

Of course I want to live!

"If you want to live, then do something for me! I heard that Wu Dalang seems to have developed a new kind of pastry that sells very well. You go and steal his recipe for me now."

Bai Sheng shook his head abruptly: "No, no! He's my elder brother. How could I possibly do such a thing"

"Niuniu's eyes widened, and he puffed out his beard with a fierce expression on his face! "Well then, you're going to die!"

Looking at the blade of the butcher's knife, already cutting into his own skin, the intense pain and the burning sensation of the blood left him instantly terrified!

He kept shouting, "No! No! I'll go! I'll go!"

As night falls.

Wu Chao's long-awaited moment has finally arrived!

Wu Chao sat nervously and excitedly on the bed, watching Gao Jinlian enter the room after washing up.

"My lady, it's late. Let us sleep."

Gao Jinlian cast a shy glance at Wu Chao. Normally, she would ignore him completely. But tonight, for some reason, her heart felt like there was a little rabbit bouncing around inside!

Gao Jinlian carried a bedboard from behind the door and placed it against the wall. Then, she took out bedding from a cabinet and laid it on top.

Wǔ Chāo was taken aback: "My wife, why are you sleeping on the ground"

"Isn't this how I usually am"

"No, no, how can you sleep on the ground" Wu Chao immediately walked over and said. His strong hands encircled Gao Jinlian's slender waist like a serpent, lifting her soft and fragrant body directly into a princess carry.

"Master, please don't!"eahouse, Xi Men He eagerly came up to meet her."Mother, how did things go"Wang Po let out a cold snort and threw the package onto the table: "This Wu Dalang seems to have become suspicious. He's refus...
