The house was just cleaned and slightly trimmed.

The antechamber was full of grace and luxury.

When Gu Xinyue stepped into the threshold, she glanced at the door frame made of sandalwood, and a thought flashed in her heart.

But he took it away.

As he walked up to the upper seat, he looked at the middle-aged lady who stood up respectfully and stood in the lower seat.

He should be over forty years old, his body and face have been blessed, and his round face and eyes are smiling, and he looks kind.

Only the sharp hooked nose with it, but also with some youthful beauty, and hidden sharpness.

Feng Qixian also said this Mrs. Hou.

Mrs. Jiang's favorite is the youngest son who disappeared in the capital, and her favorite is also the fourth daughter-in-law of her sister-in-law.

Therefore, after the death of the youngest son, he let the four daughters-in-law go back.

But this eldest daughter-in-law from the Chen family in Chenzhou has always been a little unaccustomed to it.

It's just that this Mrs. Hou is really powerful, she has been suppressed by Mrs. Jiang for more than ten years, she didn't suffer any losses, and she firmly grasped the heart of Marquis Jianghuai, and after taking over the housekeeping rights, it didn't take long for Mrs. Jiang to completely grasp the mansion in the palm of her hand under the difficulties of Mrs. Jiang.

Only Mrs. Jiang thought that this Mrs. Hou would listen to her everything.

"Concubine Jiang Chen has seen the county lord." As soon as Gu Xinyue walked in, Mrs. Hou bowed down and gave a serious salute.

Hearing Gu Xinyue's resignation, Fang stood up straight, quietly glanced at Gu Xinyue, and lowered his eyes again.

The Jiang family, from Mrs. Jiang to her son, were all people who had never seen the majesty of the royal family, and they only listened to the words passed by Mrs. Gu before, and thought that this Gu Liu girl was a disabled person.

Just like the ladies in the house.

There is a head but no brain.

But I didn't expect it.

The Central Plains and the capital are not as good as this Jiangnan.

is also the niece of the emperor and the sister-in-law of the Duke of Dingguo.

For the sake of her own face, the emperor and the Duke of Dingguo would not let outsiders slap her in the face.

is hanging with relatives and elders, that is also the monarch and ministers in front, and relatives in the back.

The respect of the county lord is to marry into the in-law's family, and the mother-in-law's family must bow and see him.

What's more, you are a relative who is so far away.

Now that the dark tide in Jiangnan is surging, many places have begun to change quietly, and the balance formed for decades has changed not only because of the rise of the two families in the Han Dynasty, but also because of Qi Tianao, the governor of Jiangnan, has had some changes.

At this time, it is completely understandable that Jiang Huaihou wants to take advantage of the situation to revive his prestige, and she agrees with it.

For this reason, she pulled down her face to befriend that Mrs. Qi.

also married the water family.

Now this Rongning county lord is willing to come thousands of miles to report the news, which is a big face for the Marquis of Jianghuai.

If the relationship is good, not only can the people of Jiangnan realize again that the Marquis of Jianghuai is a serious nobleman and a prince in Jiangnan.

There is also the general of Dingguo Gong behind the lord of Rongning as a backer.

But according to Jiang Taijun's approach, if you want to use the elders to show people's face, then wait for your face to turn into a slap in the face.

It is precisely because people have been disabled that they don't care about the etiquette and reputation that the nobles of the capital have to pay attention to.

It's even more terrifying.

It's a pity that she was able to guard against Mrs. Jiang, but she didn't expect that Jiang Sanye's idiot would actually bump into it.

When Gu Xinyue sat down on the main seat, Mrs. Hou's eyes were red, Ying Ying bowed, and said: "County Lord, please forgive me, the third brother of my family, burned his brain when he was a child, he was stupid, he didn't understand the rules, and he collided with the county lord, and Hou Ye had already let people beat him fifty boards, locked up, and he would not make the county lord angry again." ”

Gu Xinyue didn't even feel the corner of her eyes, glanced at her with a smile, and said, "Oh, it turned out to be a fool." ”

"Yes, since the mansion received the news and heard that the county lord was coming, the concubine body has already prepared a place, and it is in the best courtyard of the Jianghuai Marquis Mansion." Mrs. Hou still maintained a respectful posture and said, "County Lord, look? ”

Gu Xinyue smiled and said, "So, Mrs. Hou sat down and spoke." ”

Mrs. Hou saluted again, sat down on the lower seat, and then raised a warm face and looked at Gu Xinyue.

The girl sitting above was tall, with a delicate face, a pair of apricot eyes that were big and bright, and between the anticipation, the brilliance was overflowing.

It's just a simple plain dress and a hosta, which brings out the elegance and nobility.

Awe-inspiring, with the momentum of a superior person.

Mrs. Hou was stunned.

When she got married, the former Jianghuai Marquis had just started fighting with several younger brothers (so he married the daughter of the Chen family for his son), and he relied heavily on the Dingguo Mansion in the capital.

I heard that at that time, in order to change the officials of Songjiang Mansion, a large amount of silver was sent to the Dingguo Mansion.

It was only later that the youngest son of the former Jianghuai Marquis disappeared in the capital for no reason, and the two families had a gap, and later, Gu Hekui and Princess An Ning Heli were sent to Ganzhou by the first emperor and left the power center of the capital.

But Mrs. Gu will still write letters, and occasionally, her husband will tell her as a joke.

said that the old lady Gu regarded her granddaughter as an enemy, and she cursed again and again in the letter, and said that she would raise and abolish the evil seed of Princess Anning and let her be tortured.

Later, the former Jianghuai Marquis died suddenly, and that year, Jiang Laotaijun went to Beijing once, and after he came back, he completely broke off contact with Gufu.

It wasn't until three years ago that an old servant who followed Gu Laotaijun to marry and went to the capital returned to his hometown to deal with family affairs and was called into the mansion that he learned some things about the Gu family.

Including, the sixth girl Gu was really raised by Mrs. Gu.

At that time, the old servant said that the sixth girl Gu was afraid that she would not live long.

has not been to school, has not received a day of noble girl education, **** under the training of Gu Laotaijun, such a woman who grew up.

Why is there such momentum?

Could it be that this power can really support people?

But in more than two years, Miss Gu Liu has actually been reborn?

Puzzled in her heart, Mrs. Hou said with no expression on her face: "It's all to blame for the third brother's fool, let the county lord be wronged, although this house is big, it hasn't been inhabited for many years, county lord, look, or move the car?" ”

"I'm too tired today, and the county lord is too lazy to move." Gu Xinyue raised her hand lightly, covered her lips and yawned: "Besides, the county lord has brought too many people, but I'm afraid that you won't have enough places to clean up, so let the county lord's people go and take a look first, and after cleaning it up, the county lord will see if you want to go." ”

As soon as she raised her hand like this, she yawned unruly, coupled with the undisguised rude words, that anger suddenly dissipated in Mrs. Hou's eyes.

My heart was suddenly relieved.

Thinking that this man is really just like his son said, he is a fake.

That's it.

With a smile on her face, Mrs. Hou said with a smile: "What the county lord said is that this county lord has a daughter, so it's better to send someone to take a look first." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and asked the maid next to him to hand a gift slip to the peony beside Gu Xinyue.

Mrs. Hou continued: "This is a little gift prepared by the Hou Ye and the concubine, if the county lord is still missing anything here, just tell the concubine, and the concubine will be sent over." ”

Gu Xinyue glanced sideways at the gift list handed over by Peony, and when her eyes swept over those antique gold and silver and other things, she smiled secretly in her heart.

knew that the other party was despising her.

She came to report the funeral for Gu Lao Taijun, and it stands to reason that she should give a gift to the Jianghuai Marquis Mansion, and then distribute Gu Lao Taijun's dowry to the Jianghuai Marquis Mansion.

didn't enter this door, but asked the Jianghuai Marquis Mansion to send expensive gifts, and when she said it, she lost the face of the county lord of Rongning.

However, she has always believed that money is more important than fame.

Since the Jianghuai Marquis Mansion dares to send it, then she dares to accept it.

I want to see what this Jianghuai Marquis means.
