Chapter 40: Preparation for Chrysanthemum Appreciation

It was already noon after the rain stopped, the sun was excellent, as if a rain had washed the sky away, the sky was blue and blue, open the door and take a deep breath, and the full inhalation of the chest was full of freshness.

The rain washed the bamboos in the wall more and more green, and the breeze blew, which was quite a bit of a depression.

Although she lied to Fu Shi and lied to her that Mother Ye had been found, in fact, Gu Xiangyi had no bottom in her heart, after all, she didn't know where Mother Ye was now, and she didn't know whether Mother Ye was dead or alive.

When Gu Fei came, she said that Mother Ye was sick and was being treated, if it was really the day when she couldn't find it at the end of the road, it could be said that she had not been treated, she had already died, and she told Gu Fei some things before she died, and Gu Fei would bring justice to the Song family, which was indeed a good solution. But Gu Xiangyi didn't plan to do this, if people could find it, it would be good, and if they couldn't find it, they could use this strategy.

In the afternoon, the Gu family received the worship box, which was sent by the Jingde Mansion, but the post inside was not to visit the Bofu, but to invite all the girls of the Gu family to participate in the chrysanthemum banquet of the Jingde Mansion five days later.

This post entered Fu Zhirong's eyes, and immediately made her eyes shine, and she immediately said that she wanted Gu Ruoyi to prepare well.

In fact, this kind of thing will be prepared in the house, thinking that there is no way to let the children contact with the children of various noble families in the capital on weekdays, it is better to hold a banquet with a talk, invite a few children to come over, and the children of the two families will take a look at each other. Although the child may not understand, but each other's elders understand, those who have that heart will let their sons or granddaughters dress up, and those who don't have that heart will send the worship box back intact, or say that the daughter is sick and should not go out.

But the chrysanthemum banquet is the Jingde Mansion, and it is estimated that no one will say that they will not go, and those girls' families are all like they are going to the battlefield, and they are majestic and high-spirited.

Fu originally wanted to only take her Ruo'er with her, but it turned out that the post was clearly written that she wanted all the girls of the right age in the family to go.

Fang Yuchun's wishful thinking is good, she wants to give her son a helpful family affair, and make every effort for her son to attack the title in the future, as for the current son Yi Jingxiao, she has already thought of various ways to get rid of it, and the first step is to find him a wife who is not of great value.

Gu Ruoyi can't do it, although she has a bad reputation and no place to be outstanding, but she is the daughter of the uncle's mansion, and she is loyal to the uncle's mansion behind her, so she has to guard against it. But the other concubines didn't say that, so it was better to find them all.

Although Yi Jingxiao may not be able to choose, let alone who she likes, she has to do enough tricks in front of Jingde Gong. It is not easy for the concubine to control the middle feed, and she has no chance to be corrected, so she must be more careful in doing things, and must not let Jingde Gong find out that she is interested in the position of the prince.

Gu Hengjun naturally knew what the Fu family was thinking, and he agreed to only take the three girls there, after all, if he really married the Duke's Mansion, it would be difficult to marry the concubine, his third daughter had a bad reputation, and the family affairs in the future would be very difficult, so he would push her up if he had the chance, and it would be good to get rid of the scourge of the Lu family. But when it was written on someone's post, he didn't have much to say, so he just said: "You can do it yourself, don't be clever and self-defeating at that time, so that Ruo'er will be even more hopeless to marry." ”

If it was really a bit more pungent, wouldn't Gu Fei be notoriously pungent before he got married? But Gu Ruoyi and Gu Fei are not comparable at all, not only will they not be in charge of the house, but they will also cause trouble everywhere, they are simply a, and there are rumors of fornication with foreign men, I am afraid that in this life, don't expect to find a good door.

It doesn't hurt to bring only one Gu Ruoyi to the door, Fang Yuchun and Jingde Gong won't say anything in person, but when they close the door, can they not mutter? I feel that the Gu family is too scheming, thinking of stuffing the broken basket of the third girl into the Yi family? Then the two families will have a feud at that time.

Fu Shi also knew the stakes, and no matter how reluctant he was, he also ordered the courtyards to let each girl prepare, except for the youngest Gu Xiuyi, the rest of the people had to go.

Among them, Gu Xiangyi was removed.

With Gu Xiangyi's relationship with Yi Jingxiao in the guest house, the Fu family had no bottom in her heart, and she was afraid that what would happen if Yi Jingxiao fell in love with that dead girl? Even if the eldest son of the Yi family fell in love with Gu Xiangyi, she couldn't watch the Song family's flesh and blood climb high branches.

Gu Xiangyi, who understood the situation, smiled faintly, and when Xiao Jingyao came again, let him help contact one of Yi Jingxiao's attendants, Yuancha, and inform him of the matter.

also made it clear that if your family wants me to help, then remove the stumbling block of the Gu family for her, otherwise she is the one who helps, and she is the one who deals with the trouble, so she doesn't have to make a mess for herself, and no one will do this kind of loss-making business.

Xiao Jingyao is a wealthy businessman, not to mention that his subordinates are in charge of connections like Mo Hanxiang, and he doesn't know how tough he is to support him behind him, so he naturally has a way to contact the attendants of the mansion.

Hearing what Yuan Cha said, Yi Jingxiao didn't say anything for a long time.

"Childe, what do you think?" Yuan Cha was a little anxious: "The sixth girl can speak, if you want to hug the beauty, then you must seize this opportunity!"

What kind of beauty do you hold? In a word, Yi Jingxiao's face darkened.

Yuan Cha thought that he was still hesitating, and began to 'bitterly talk about it' again: "According to the subordinates, what kind of wife and virtuous words are not of great use, and the eldest lady of the inner court naturally has to contribute, but isn't there still a group of mothers and mothers-in-law under his command? Marrying a daughter-in-law is still beautiful, so that the heirs born will not be crooked and cracked, at least it is comfortable to watch!"

Yi Jingxiao's face darkened.

Without waiting for him to speak, Chan Jin asked first: "Then what if you marry a tigress back? What's the use of being pleasing to the eye, when the time comes, you will beat and scold our son, or if you don't have children for five years or ten years, you can still divorce and marry? I see that your temperament is purely to let Mengliuhe's raising, you know that you are greedy for beauty!"

"When did I covet beauty!" As soon as he heard Chan Jin talk about Mengliuhe, Yucha's face immediately turned red: "Then you can't let the prince marry back a crooked melon and cracked jujube with a good family, right?"

Zen Jin was not to be outdone: "There are few ugly girls with good family backgrounds, and marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous person is the rule set by the ancestors, otherwise it will be trouble in your hands, and you can't get rid of it and can't throw it away." ”

The two shook their heads at each other, ignoring the other.

Yi Jingxiao was noisy and had a headache.

He understood the words of these two attendants, now that he was already a son, he didn't need to plan any good family affairs like Fang Yuchun did for his eldest brother, and he didn't have to think about what benefits he would bring to himself through family affairs, but marrying a wife was not a trivial matter, it was a major event in a lifetime, and he didn't want to make such a hasty decision.

Yi Jingyan and Yi Jingxiao are not much different in age, Fang Yuchun pouted his father and hurriedly said goodbye, just because he was afraid that Yi Jingxiao would get more help, and then Fang Yuchun's son would have something to fight for?

It is precisely because of this that he wants Gu Xiangyi to come forward to block it, at least in recent years, he has not been willing to consider marrying a wife.

But what makes him even more curious now is why Gu Xiangyi knows Xiao Jingyao?

Most people knew that Ning Yuanjiang saved Xiao Jingyao back then, and it was not a secret in the capital, but he never knew what Gu Xiangyi and Xiao Jingyao had to do with him.

So he naturally implicated Gu Xiangyi and the Ning family again, thinking that it might be through Ning Yuanjiang who rescued Xiao Jingyao, and the two of them met.

"It's really not a simple person. ”

The next day, another worship box was delivered, and it was mentioned again that the school-age girl in the house would go together, and Fu Shi inevitably muttered in his heart.

Could this be what the prince meant? Could it be that the prince is interested in Gu Xiangyi?

"That little fox!" Fu Shi hammered his thigh: "Day and night, this is really difficult to prevent!"

Mother Zhou handed over a cup of tea, and said in a slow tone: "If the prince of Jingde really has that idea, it is not a big deal. ”

"What do you know?" Fu Shi glared at her: "I don't want that dead girl to have a chance to climb the high branches!"

"The eldest lady thinks that she will definitely be able to get the blue eyes of the prince if she goes?" Mother Zhou continued: "Even if the prince of Jingde really falls in love with the sixth girl, but the door of the Duke's Mansion is so easy to enter? ”

Fu Zhirong asked worriedly: "What if she is a concubine?

Her daughter doesn't have that ability, how can Gu Xiangyi be virtuous?

"If the eldest lady knocks on the side and tells the concubine who is now in charge of the Jingde Mansion, saying that the six girls are not the blood of the uncle, but were born to wild men and the slut of the Song family, can the six girls still enter the door? Even if she is not qualified to be a concubine, what are you afraid of?"

yes, identity is a big issue.

Hearing this, Fu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Zhou's mother with a smile: "Don't you say that I forgot, the method that harmed the Song family at the beginning is now used no matter what you do." ”

"It's the eldest lady who is smart. "Mother Zhou is extremely humble.

So a maid arrived at He Yinju and told Gu Xiangyi that she would go to the Jingde Mansion to enjoy chrysanthemums in a few days, and asked her to prepare for her life and not to embarrass the Gu family.

Pomegranate closed the door and almost died of anger.

"All these years in the mansion all the good things have deducted the girl, there are no good jewelry and dresses, it is simply a shame to go there, the eldest lady really does not blame the slave maid for acting like this, is it possible to wear a rag shirt to the banquet?

Gu Xiangyi smiled indifferently: "It's just a piece of clothing, if she doesn't give it to us, there will be no way to get it?"

"Girl has an idea?"

Looking at the few pieces of clothes that Gu Fei gave last time, Gu Xiangyi felt that these pieces were inappropriate, although the materials were good, they were not eye-catching. Since it's to help him catch his eyeballs, he can't dress up in clear soup and little water, otherwise no one will believe him even if he says he is happy.

With a few golden beans taken from Ge Yao, Gu Xiangyi went out with pomegranates.
