Chapter 42 Restitution

After staying in Gu's house for more than two hours, it was dark, and Mrs. Zhang's family was tired and helped the maid's hand to board the car and go back to the house, her car was followed by another narrow car, and the curtain could not see the situation inside.

As Gu Yuan's surprise, Mrs. Zhang still came to her small courtyard in the evening, taking Gu Yao and Li Yuan with her, her face lost the arrogance at the beginning and the intentional closeness and kindness later, only anger that could not be concealed. She held the hand of the maid and walked into Gu Yuan's room step by step, Gu Yao followed behind her, without the kind smile she used to have, just hung her head slightly, and said nothing.

"Big lady." Gu Yuan got up generously and bent his knees. She expected that Mrs. Gu would come, and the Gu family would never let go of the slightest opportunity easily, so even if she went against their decision, she would still not give up making her an important pawn of the Gu family by the prince's side.

Mrs. Gu no longer pulled her to ask for warmth and say those things on the scene, but sat firmly on the couch and looked at Gu Yuan: "Ah Yuan disappointed me. "It's not going around in circles, it's rare to be straightforward.

Gu Yuan stood meekly to the side, listening to her words.

"Originally, you could become the sister-in-law of the Gu family and become the prince Liangyuan." Mrs. Gu's tone did not fluctuate, "With your ability, naturally you will not just be a good lady of the East Palace, when you assist the crown prince to ascend the throne, plus you are of noble birth, even the one in the middle palace will have to retreat from you, and at that time, both you and the Gu family will be unlimited." ”

"Since the prince ordered someone to come to the mansion to ask for your Nian Geng, the clan elders and we have decided to do whatever it takes to help you act in the East Palace, but if you are sent, the Gu family will never shirk." Her sharp gaze fell on Gu Yuan, "Maybe you don't know what this means, but you have already seen the children of Wang Xie's family, why can they have such a status, only because of the Wang Xie family's hundred years of accumulation, can the world look up to it." And you could have brought the Gu family to the road to the top family! ”

"But you're stupid!" Mrs. Gu seemed to have no scruples, and her words were ruthless, "I think I have a special ability to rely on, and I don't need the protection of the family, so I even refused to be the prince Liangyuan." Do you know that there are many sisters-in-law in the family in Jiankang, you are from a side branch, and you have no family protection, I am afraid that anyone can humiliate you and take your life! And you're just an ant! Her words were sharp and harsh and hurried at Gu Yuan.

It's just that to her disappointment, Gu Yuan didn't move at all, and still stood there meekly with his hands clasped together, and just said lightly: "Ah Yuan knows." "How could she not know that in the previous life, she followed Feng Wenyi from Wu County back to Jiankang, although Feng Wenyi was already a hussar general of Sanpin at that time, she, the general's wife who was next to the family, still suffered the ridicule and teasing of the sisters-in-law of the Jiankang family, and that kind of humiliation made her hide in the mansion all the year round and dare not go out to meet people.

Mrs. Gu couldn't imagine that this orphan girl was so stubborn, and she was still so unwilling to listen to her words at this time, she couldn't help but sneer: "Okay, very good, since you are so ignorant, it is up to you." She beckoned, and Li Yuan, who was standing behind her, came forward with a stack of deeds.

"This is the title deed and silver money of the grange that were deposited in my hands when your grandmother passed away that day, and now that you are going to Jiankang, naturally you don't have to put it in the house to take care of it, and all of it will be returned to you." Mrs. Gu didn't look at the stacked deed, and only let Li Yuan hand it over to Gu Yuan.

Li Yuan stepped forward at this time, and when she sent the deed to Chen Yuan's hand, she said: "The eldest lady is still thinking about Yuan's sister-in-law, and she also ordered the slave to give the two Zhuangzi in the western suburbs to the sister-in-law, which can be regarded as a snack." After that, he deliberately glanced at Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan looked at the stack of deeds, suddenly laughed, and bent his knees to Mrs. Gu: "Thank you Madame, Madame, but Ah Yuan is disrespectful." ”

Mrs. Gu couldn't understand the meaning of Gu Yuan's smile, but when she saw that she accepted the deed, her eyebrows loosened slightly, and she smiled a little: "After all, you were also raised in the mansion, and you are still the sister-in-law of the Gu family, so naturally you can't be too wronged." If you figure it out and make someone come back and say that you know with me, the house is still thinking about it. With that, she got up and walked towards the door with Li Yuan and Gu Yao.

Just walked a few steps and stopped: "This time, your eldest brother and Ayao Ayun will also go to Jiankang together, and you will have a good care on the road." ”

This sentence really surprised Gu Yuan, she turned her head to look at Gu Yao, who had never spoken, only to see that she lowered her head and her face was flat, and she couldn't see anything. In the previous life, Gu Yao did not follow the prince and his party back to Jiankang, but only went to Jiankang with several sisters-in-law of Wu County at the invitation of the Xie family in Jiankang, and then was favored by the Xie family and became the bride of the Xie family, Gu Yun never went to Jiankang, and Gu Tongzhi stayed in Wu County, and finally befriended Feng Wenyi, so that there was a final ending.

Unexpectedly, everything changed, Gu Tongzhi actually went to Jiankang, and Gu Yao and Gu Yun would also go together. Is it because of Zhang Qilang's incident this time?

Gu Yuan was stunned, came back to his senses and bowed to Mrs. Gu and said, "No." ”

Out of Gu Yuan's courtyard, Gu Yao said in a low voice: "Why did A-Niang give her the deed?" "Gu Yuan didn't obey their arrangements so much, why did he still give her these belongings, even if he didn't give them at all, what could Gu Yuan do.

Mrs. Gu asked the maid to follow from afar, holding Li Yuan's hand, and taking Gu Yao and the three of them to walk in the courtyard of the Gu Mansion that was lit up by the wind lantern, she said unhurriedly: "Ah Yao thinks that sister-in-law is already going to Jiankang, so there is no need to waste these grange title deeds?" In the night, she sneered, "I wanted to be with her." She didn't elaborate on why, just walked forward.

Gu Yao endured it, and finally couldn't help but say: "Why should A-Niang be so tolerant of her!" ”

Mrs. Gu's steps slowly stopped, she turned her head and her eyes burned: "You remember, if you want to achieve great things, you can't just look at the gains and losses in front of you, although that sister-in-law is unwilling to be obedient now, she may not be able to use it in the future, so you don't have to do it here, leave a glimmer of leeway, and only then can you have a feasible way in the future." ”

She looked at Gu Yao's gaze and gradually turned cold: "A-Niang is also very disappointed in you, I didn't expect you to do such a stupid thing this time!" ”

Gu Yao bit her lip and lowered her head, not daring to look at her mother's eyes again.

"You are my sister-in-law of the Gu family, how noble your identity is, you have been smart since you were a child, you have acted moderately, and you have such a good appearance, the house has high hopes for you!" Mrs. Gu didn't pity her, "Everything has been arranged, you can achieve what you want as long as you follow the plan, and your marriage will also become a big help in the clan, so that our long room can sit more stable." But you actually spent your mind on such a lowly person! ”

Gu Yao said in a low voice, "Ah Yao is wrong. ”

"You're wrong, of course you're wrong!" Mrs. Gu said fiercely, "You are acting in the mansion self-righteously, you have never thought about it, if it is really done, how should our Gu Mansion explain to the prince and the Zhang family?" Just for your little care, just acting so ridiculously! Have you forgotten what I have taught you all these years? Even if you want to do something selfish, you should be safe, and you can't implicate yourself! ”

"You have to remember that you are of noble birth, you should not do it with such a slut, even if you want to move her, you should let others do it, this is the best policy." She exhaled slowly and raised her head slightly, "Now she is still a useful person, don't attack her again." When it's useless, I'll naturally make her disappear. ”

Gu Yao responded softly, and asked again: "Then Ah Yun ......?"

Mrs. Gu sighed softly: "You take her to Jiankang with you, when the time comes, I will let someone tell her about family affairs, just stay in Jiankang, and don't have to come back." "Even if you try your best to seal your mouth, after all, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no leakage, the Gu family can't be dragged down by Gu Yun's reputation, originally this daughter is not a smart and usable person, not as good as Gu Yao, so she can only be sent to Jiankang.

I didn't know what the Gu family's mother and daughter had discussed, Gu Yuan in the room glanced at the stack of deeds and handed them back to Chen Yuan: "Put them away, and find a safe person to sell all these grange land deeds and exchange them for money." ”

Chen Yuan was taken aback: "These are all good fields and Zhuangzi, why did my sister-in-law sell them all, this is a big discount!" ”

Gu Yuan smiled lightly and didn't explain to her, just said: "Just do what I say, and it doesn't hurt to discount the price, as long as you exchange it for silver money quickly." ”

Chen Yuan was full of doubts, but she didn't dare to disobey Gu Yuan's words, she just muttered: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just sent a thousand gold some time ago, where is there a shortage of silver, why do you want to sell all this, but you have to lose a lot of silver." These good granges are to keep them, and it is good to marry them in the future. ”

Gu Yuan didn't speak, just lowered his head and packed up his books. She knew Mrs. Gu's intentions, if she left those granges, she was afraid that she would have more involvement with the Gu family in the future, so she simply sold them together to make a clean break!
