After returning to Guoyunju, An Xiyue sent another invitation to Huo Sisi and gave her a gift, inviting her to be a guest at Guoyunju tonight.
After Tu Kui found out, he went to Huo Sisi's yard in person and told her to go to the banquet.
Because he only called her Huo Sisi, Tu Kui thought she was "Mr. Yuan" and wanted to curry favor with him, so he asked Mrs. Yuan to befriend his Jiu Yiniang.
In the evening, Huo Sisi arrived as promised. She was wearing a luxurious mink cloak and was dressed up from head to toe. She looked at the extraordinary wealth appearing at the door of Guo Yunju.
An Xiyue hurriedly welcomed her out and personally helped her out of the carriage: "Jiu Yiniang, please come in quickly."
"Mrs. Yuan is so polite. Sisi should have done her duty as a landlord and invited Mrs. Yuan to be a guest at her house." Huo Sisi said in greeting.
"When I first saw Jiu Yiniang, I felt that we were destined. I'm really embarrassed today, so I personally prepared some wine and food. I don't know if Jiu Yiniang likes it."
An Xiyue was referring to the snow fox cloak that Huo Sisi fell in love with, so when she came back, she chose another piece of jewelry and gave it to Jiu Yiniang.
Huo Sisi entered the private room and casually glanced at the dishes on the table. They were so exquisite that they looked like they were cooked by a chef from Guo Yunju.
Huo Sisi was surprised: "Did Mrs. Yuan do all this herself?"
An Xiyue smiled slightly, "I usually don't have any hobbies, I just like to study some dishes to make Jiu Yiniang laugh."
Huo Sisi glanced left and right: "Is Mr. Yuan not here?"
"My husband went out with his people to do something. Because it involved transporting food into Zhangzhou City, he didn't trust his people, so he went there himself." An Xiyue poured a glass of wine for Huo Sisi and said with a smile.
When Huo Sisi heard about the food shipment, her pupils shrank and a strange color flashed in her eyes. Tu Kui had already warned her and asked her to have a good relationship with Mrs. Yuan.
An Xiyue pretended not to know anything, but still served Huo Sisi enthusiastically: "Jiu Yiniang, try this fish, it's fresh and delicious..."
Huo Sisi was a little absent-minded. Tu Kui's people were following her, and she didn't know whether she should find a way to spread the news to the people in the Huo family now.
At this time, there seemed to be some unusual noises outside the window.
An Xiyue acted as if she didn't hear anything, and just smiled and greeted Huo Sisi, "I am inconvenient today and cannot drink with Jiu Yiniang. I will toast Jiu Yiniang with tea instead of wine. I hope Jiu Yiniang can say a good word for my husband-in-law in front of Lord Tu."
Huo Sisi smiled and said hello...
Outside the door, a group of masked men in black were approaching quietly. Zhu Gui and the killer successfully jumped into Guo Yun Ju. According to the reliable information he received, there were only a few women in Guo Yun Ju.
In order to take revenge, Zhu Gui had planned all this a long time ago, and he told Sun Zuo that no matter what happened on the street passing Yunju Restaurant today, Sun Zuo must move the officers and soldiers away.
At this time, the entire courtyard was extremely quiet, with lanterns hanging all around, and the weak light shining down the corridor, making the place even more eerie.
Zhu Gui made a gesture to the people in black beside him, and immediately, the people in black jumped up the stairs to the second floor in a familiar manner and headed towards the private room with the light on.
At this time, An Xiyue suddenly stood up and said, "Jiu Yiniang, sit down for a while. I'll go see if my husband is back."
Huo Sisi nodded: "Mrs. Yuan, please help yourself."
After An Xiyue left, Huo Sisi glanced at the maids behind him, then at Bilian, and said, "Bilian, come here and serve me."
"Yes, Jiu Yiniang." Bilian was brought over from the Huo family by Jiu Yiniang, so naturally she was also hers.
