The next morning, Ning Peilan really came to visit Second Mrs. Gu and brought some homemade snacks to make refreshments, Gu Chan tasted Princess Cheng's craftsmanship and made up her mind to practice her cooking skills well, and Second Mrs. Gu was also persuaded to take Tong Mingli's incident as a lesson from the past, and she should be cautious no matter how anxious she is.

After stabilizing Second Mrs. Gu, Gu Yun and a group of them secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and Gu Chan suddenly became diligent to practice cooking skills, find something to do for herself, it is also good to add some chips, and it is also fun in daily life.

After this mid-autumn, the weather is getting cooler, and the annual winter hunt is close at hand, Bai Ko has the experience of the first two times, and this year he is more and more handy, and the master of the second room will not participate this year, staying in the house to take care of the baby, Gu Xu is also at home with his wife and daughter.

Mother-in-law, Mrs. Gan, was naturally happy to see that her son-in-law was so considerate and caring for the family, and the second lady had no opinion at first, but now Gu Chan's marriage was not going well, she was afraid that her son's daughter-in-law's affection would stimulate the little daughter, and she secretly asked her son to go out to socialize more, pay attention to a good man for her sister, and have a family to take care of everything at home, so he doesn't need to worry about it.

When these words reached the ears of Grandma Xu, she was inevitably depressed, but she couldn't contradict her mother-in-law, so she had to confide in her mother and sister-in-law, Mrs. Gan was angry, Gu Chan's marriage was delayed by their parents, and they couldn't complain about their daughter-in-law, why should they disturb their young couple's life and turn a good home into just a place to sleep at night.

Sister-in-law Gan and Sister-in-law Gan also privately felt that Second Lady Gu had nothing to do and had a hateful face, so they talked about Gu Chan when they had a chance, making Second Lady Gu so angry that her temples jumped suddenly, looking forward to her mother-in-law going back to Pingzhou as soon as possible.

The inexplicable secret fight in the second room is known to Bai Ko, and he feels that the second lady really has no cure, if there is a suitable nephew in Hanlin, how can Uncle Xu not be a matchmaker for his sister, he is in the Hanlin Courtyard, in the center of politics, he knows how to choose a future brother-in-law, he doesn't move, it means that there is really no suitable object, the second lady can't even think of this, and forces her son to socialize every day just to find a good man, I don't know and think that Uncle Xu is a good man, and he takes the opportunity to play wild food for himself.

Bai Ko had an idea, and felt that this idea was good, and he had to tell the second lady to settle down, and now King Chengjun was looking for a suitable candidate, so as not to let the other camp seize the opportunity to send a good boy first, and drive a nail into his own camp.

As soon as she thought of this, Bai Ko immediately took action, taking advantage of the convenience of her identity, when she walked around the house, she saw that there were people talking in a heap, so she hid in the dark and secretly changed her voice to spread rumors, claiming that Uncle Xu had a newborn baby and a confinement wife at home, but he was not at home every day, and would rather find all kinds of men to socialize outside than go home to talk to his wife, but he didn't see him make any outstanding achievements in political achievements, God knows what he did every time he socialized, Could it be that the second lady knows that her son is actually a good man, and now that she has a wife and a daughter, she is no longer bound by Uncle Xu's hobbies.

As soon as this rumor spreads, the lethality is really amazing, and it takes half a day to spread all over the house and the back streets, Uncle Xu's daily routine and whereabouts are only known to the second room, so no one suspects that this is a rumor spread by Bai Ko, just as it is the new gossip of the owner of the second room, listen to it with relish, and spread it with relish.

The rumors spread to the second room, Grandma Xu didn't believe it, but her mother-in-law and sister-in-law believed it, and confronted the second lady Gu with a fierce attitude, and the second lady naturally denied it, and the Gan daughters thought she was quibbling, after all, it is a fact that Gu Xu is socializing outside every day, sometimes he can come back when the door is closed, sometimes he stays outside, and then goes directly to the Hanlin Academy after dawn, and the young couple has little time to get along now.

Second Mrs. Gu was aggrieved, she felt that she just asked Gu Xu to care more about her sister, find a suitable good brother-in-law, and when Gu Chan got married, he could take care of his small family as much as he wanted.

Mrs. Gan couldn't listen to this reason, the marriage of an unmarried child is the responsibility of the parents, and it is not the parents who are dead, why should Gu Xu sacrifice the family happiness of his own small family to worry about his sister.

The two ladies quarreled so much, Gu Chan cried and begged them not to quarrel, but to no avail, and the more they argued, the more scary they became, involving their respective daughters.

Second Mrs. Gu emphasized that her daughter-in-law gave birth to a granddaughter and did not need to be taken care of by her father, if she gave birth to a great-eldest grandson, she would naturally not let Gu Xu go home every day.

Mrs. Gan was so angry that her face turned red, and she scolded Gu Wan for being married for a year, and she has not been pregnant until now, which made her take a good husband for nothing, but put her husband's family in danger of cutting off children and grandchildren.

Gu Wan has not been pregnant so far is a pain point in the heart of the second lady Gu that she can't step on, suddenly her chest tightened, her body was crooked, the subordinate screamed and hugged her to support her, and then the curtain was lifted, and the eldest lady Gu walked in with an angry face, and the mother Pang who followed up persuaded the female relatives of the Gan family and sent them out of the house, and the eldest lady stayed in the room to reprimand the concubine.

Bai Ko knew that under the influence of rumors, the second room was in chaos, she slowly finished the housework of Zhongming Courtyard, and went out to listen to the gossip, this time the people in the second room did not say anything nonsense, and finally found out a little detail, let her know that the second lady said that her daughter did not need her father to take care of her, so she had a plan and spread another rumor.

This time, it was specifically aimed at the little baby, and pointed the finger at Mrs. Gu's suspicion that her daughter-in-law was stealing, because when Grandma Xu was pregnant before, many people said that it must be a male fetus, but now it is a granddaughter, so it must be Uncle Xu's species that has been changed, but the male species sown has given birth to a female baby, not stealing people.

This rumor is even more terrifying, and Bai Ko still plays a double reed alone without showing his face and poking secretly, picking a lot of people to talk nonsense, and the subordinates no longer dare to shout everywhere, but secretly find the subordinates in the second room to ask the second lady if she dislikes her daughter-in-law for not giving birth to a grandson, so she uses the topic to play so that Uncle Xu is not at home all day.

The subordinates of the second room were frightened when they heard this new rumor, and firmly said that the second lady liked the little granddaughter, and had no dissatisfaction with the daughter-in-law and the baby, and never suspected that the eldest grandmother was stealing people, and asked Uncle Xu to socialize outside all day long really just to find a suitable brother-in-law, Uncle Xu is not a man, and the second lady has no intention of destroying and interfering with the harmony of her son's small family.

The credibility of the people's arguments is not careful, anyway, the seeds of suspicion have been planted, at least the second room can be messed up for a few more days, completely involving the energy of the second lady, so that she has no strength to pay attention to the outside news, and buy some time for the palace chief of Chengwang to be the matchmaker.

When the boys who were studying went from the clan school and the school to their home respectively, they were so shocked that they didn't know what to say.

The eldest lady returned to Jicheng Hall after teaching the concubine, so when the second room relayed the new rumors to the main mother, the eldest lady didn't know, and the second lady almost vomited blood in anger after hearing it, and was helped back to the bed to rest, Gu Chan waited by the bed with tears in her eyes, and asked people to go to the street to ask the doctor of Songnantang to come and take a look, and if the situation was not good, she would ask the imperial doctor again.

The chaos on the second side of the room spread to the long room, and the eldest lady also had a headache, so she took the pill directly and went to bed to rest, and waited for her husband to go home and let him deal with it.

Gu Yun heard that his mother was sick because of the incident in the second room, so he hurriedly went to the bed to ask for warmth, and accompanied his father until he arrived home.

When the eldest master Gu entered the door with his front foot and heard about this, he crossed his waist and gasped for a while, and asked people to go to the second room to ask if Gu Xu was home, but the reply did not come back, and the eldest lady still struggled to get up after a short rest, and went to Rong'en Hall to have dinner with her mother-in-law.

After the twilight drum time, the door of the workshop was closed Gu Xu had not yet arrived home, obviously he would not come back tonight, and no one knew where to socialize, Master Gu couldn't help it anymore, and sat in his study and cursed a few words.

When Gu Yun asked his grandmother for goodnight, he didn't dare to mention the matter of the second room at all, and when he said that the second aunt didn't have dinner with her mother-in-law today, she only vaguely said that she might be tired with her granddaughter, and the old lady laughed and brought it over.

After quitting his grandmother, Gu Yun went back to his bedroom to wash his hands and face, and then sent Bai Ko to the ear room to speak, asking her in detail about the messy details of the second room.

Of course, Bai Ko didn't say a word about spreading rumors, and she didn't be so honest, but in the discussion of the world afterwards, she said as much as she heard, and she didn't hide it at all.

"If the eldest lady finds out who is so bold to make up rumors to slander the master, she will definitely be beaten to death and thrown to a mass grave." Gu Yun rubbed his face, he also felt a headache.

Bai Ko shrugged, didn't say a word, picked up the teacup and put it into Shizi's hand.

Gu Yun took a few sips of tea, calmed down, took out the homework assigned by his master from his paper bag, glanced at it hastily, and threw it aside with a painful face, with an expression that he didn't want to look at it a second time.

Bai Ko stretched his neck and glanced at it secretly, it seemed that they were all topics of strategy, and they were all written on a piece of paper, I don't know how much time the master gave him to finish these lessons, and I would have nightmares when I thought about it.

In Grandma Xu's house, the atmosphere is also very heavy, and the rumors behind this still reached her ears, and the daughter-in-law is the most sensitive to the mother-in-law's dissatisfaction that she gave birth to a granddaughter, no matter how she thinks about it, she thinks it must be for this reason, so the mother-in-law is under the guise of asking her husband to care about her sister's marriage, and would rather let her son spend the night with someone outside every day, rather than let him enjoy family fun at home.

As for the statement of stealing people, Grandma Xu and the people around her know that this is nonsense, but once the rumors spread, they can't stand so many people in the house talking about it together, or it will become that Grandma Xu is indeed stealing people in two days, but I'm afraid that even the lover can be depicted in a good way.

Bai Ko knew the power of her two rumors, but she allowed this kind of development, as long as she provoked the intensification of the conflict between the second room, she could let the second lady suspend Gu Chan's marriage, and don't let the people in Concubine Zhao Xian's camp take the opportunity to intervene, and the price would be worth it.
