I don't know how long it took, but footsteps sounded outside the inner hall.

"Who?" Xiao Zou was in a very bad mood, and his tone was also very gloomy.

"Sister, it's me." It was Zou who walked in, followed by Xu Jinyu.

Zou's acting skills have improved rapidly, knowing that Xiao Zou was in a bad mood when he saw Master Gu and Mrs. Gu, but he just didn't know: "I just heard someone say that Master Gu and Mrs. Gu are here, so I came over to say hello." What about them? ”

Xiao Zou replied expressionlessly: "It's gone." ”

Zou Shi showed a surprised expression: "Why did you leave so quickly, and didn't leave for lunch?" He glanced at Xiao Zou again, and said with concern: "Sister, why is your face so ugly, is something wrong?" ”

Xiao Zou was in no mood to elaborate at this time. What's more, she hadn't figured out how to solve the matter, so she was more and more reluctant to reveal the news in advance, and said vaguely: "It's nothing, probably because I'm a little bored in the house all day." ”

Xu Jinyu sneered in her heart.

When Master Gu and Mrs. Gu came to the door, they must have forced Xiao Zou to express his position. Xiao Zou knew that Gu Caiping was pregnant, and he didn't know what jealousy had become

"My aunt works hard all day, and it's inevitable that she will be upset." Xu Jinyu "considerately" reassured: "In the future, when Sister Gu passes the door and shares her worries and worries for her aunt, her aunt can also spare more time, or go out of the house as a guest, or walk around the garden more." It won't be so boring. ”

The sentences poke at the sore spot of Xiao Zou's family.

Xiao Zou couldn't even laugh, and barely hummed. Before Xu Jinyu could say more harsh words, he opened his mouth and said, "Eldest sister." Jin Niang, I'm bored today and want to stay alone for a while, I'm sorry for the two of you. ”

Xu Jinyu smiled understandingly: "It's okay." Then we won't bother my aunt. ”

The mother and daughter went out of Tinglan Courtyard together.

Zou lowered his voice and asked, "Jin Niang, what are you going to do when you pull me to Tinglan Courtyard?" Do you know something? ”

Xu Jinyu smiled leisurely and sold Guanzi: "Mother, I dragged you over today to let you see your aunt's headache." What the hell is going on, it will be clear in a few days. ”

"You girl. Talk to me and say half and leave half. Zou glanced at Xu Jinyu with disgust.

Xu Jinyu blinked and smiled meaningfully: "It's not that I want to sell Guanzi." It's just that this matter is related to Sister Gu's reputation, and I can't be sure now. Naturally, you can't just talk nonsense. After a few days, we will naturally see. ”

Xiao Zou waited another day. For a whole day, the rice grains did not enter, and I couldn't sleep all night. and so on, and the anxiety is unbearable and physically and mentally exhausted,

In the evening, Ji Ze finally returned home.

The porter had already been advised by Xiao Zou. Hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Madame has specially ordered. Please go to Tinglan Courtyard as soon as you return to the house, and the lady has something very important to discuss with the prince. ”

Ji Ze hummed casually.

What else can Xiao Zou do, nine times out of ten, I haven't seen him for a few days and I'm worried about him

When he arrived at Tinglan Courtyard and saw Xiao Zou's unusually haggard and anxious face, Ji Ze realized that something was wrong and restrained his smile: "What's wrong?" ”

The subordinates have already retreated. Hanyu stayed outside the door and wouldn't let anyone get close for half a step.

Xiao Zou wanted to squeeze out a smile, but he couldn't smile. His expression was tense: "Yutang, the Gu family came yesterday." ”

So? Ji Ze raised an eyebrow. Wait for Xiao Zou to continue.

Xiao Zou gritted his teeth hard, and squeezed out his mouth word by word: "Gu Caiping is pregnant!" ”

Ji Ze was startled, and a smile froze at the corner of his lips.

Just once, how did I get pregnant so coincidentally

"It's really unfortunate that just like that, Gu Caiping was pregnant." Xiao Zou paid close attention to the changes in Ji Ze's expression, and said angrily: "The Gu family came to the door just to let us come up with a solution. It's also a shame that they have the face to come to the door, and if they change their face, this kind of thing will never be announced, and they will use a bowl of abortion medicine in private to solve the evil seeds in their stomachs."

Hearing the word evil seed, Ji Ze subconsciously frowned, and his voice was a little cold: "Gu Caiping's stomach is my flesh and blood, why did he become a evil seed?" ”

Xiao Zou's heart was cold. The coldness quickly spread from the bottom of my heart to my whole body, and even my fingertips were cold.

No matter how much sweet talk a man says in bed, he can't rely on it, and the most important thing is the heir

Back then, she secretly designed to get rid of the child in Gu's womb, which was a baby boy who had already formed. Ji Ze didn't say anything, but he was extremely unhappy in his heart, and he didn't come to her for several months in a row. It was she who showed favor with a thick face, and finally got Ji Ze's heart back.

Now, Gu Caiping is pregnant with his child, and the Gu family comes to the door in person, but they don't explicitly force Ji Ze to marry Gu Caiping as soon as possible. And Ji Ze doesn't seem to object

Xiao Zou barely squeezed out an ugly smile: "The meaning of the Gu family is to hope to advance the wedding date and marry her before Gu Caiping shows her pregnancy." I didn't answer immediately yesterday, and told them that I wanted to discuss the matter with you, and I'll hear back in three days. What are you going to do now, you might as well tell me about it. ”

Ji Ze didn't have any superfluous expression on his face, and said lightly: "Anyway, if you decide on a family matter, sooner or later you have to marry her, and it doesn't hurt to be early." ”

As expected, it was such a reaction!

The blood on Xiao Zou's face faded cleanly, and his long nails pinched into his palms hard. Relying on the slightest tingling, he barely maintained his composure: "Have you really thought about it?" It has been less than a year since Gu's death, and you are in a hurry to marry a newlywed, and I am afraid that it will not sound good. Those imperial historians who heard the wind and moved, I am afraid that they will not let go of such a good opportunity"

"Are you concerned about the reputation of our Hou Mansion, or do you care about my reputation?" Ji Ze pulled the corners of his lips with a smile, and his eyes were condensed and sharp: "Or, you actually don't care about anything, you just don't want me to marry Gu Caiping." It's best to let the Gu family swallow this dumb loss. Beat the child in Gu Caiping's belly. ”

Xiao Zou's most secret thoughts in his heart were exposed, and there was a burst of unspeakable embarrassment, and some wolf bèi denied: "You misunderstood." I had no such idea. I am happier than anyone else that you will have an heir soon. ”

Is that really the case?

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Ji Ze's eyes. He is no longer the young and ignorant boy he was back then, and his shrewdness and profundity have already been honed in the past ten years of court career.

What Xiao Zou was thinking, he knew very well in his heart.

"Gu was pregnant that year, and she could give birth to her son safely in less than two months." Ji Ze's voice sounded: "You are too jealous to allow the Gu family to give birth to a child safely." Deliberately designed for her to see the two of us hanging out together. Gu Shi was frightened and fell, and the child was gone. It doesn't help that I blame you, so I never mention it. ”

Xiao Zou listened stiffly. Suddenly I had a hunch. What Ji Ze wants to say next is probably not too good.

Xiao Zou's hunch was very effective.

Ji Ze looked at Xiao Zou steadily, and said slowly: "How much have I done for you over the years. You should know it well in your heart. Men my age. There are not a few who have several sons. I have no heirs. Wait for Gu Caiping to give birth to a son, and then you can toss her as much as you want. But the child in her womb, you must never think about it again. ”

The flame of jealousy in Xiao Zou's heart burned fiercely, almost bursting through his chest.

Listen to Kizawa's tone!

Before Gu Caiping passed the door, Ji Ze had already begun to face her. Once a woman is pregnant, the weight in a man's heart is really different

If Gu Caiping is really allowed to give birth to a son safely, where will there be a place for her in Ji Ze's heart in the future? I'm afraid that I will be robbed by Gu Caiping!

No. She will never allow Gu Cai Apple to give birth to a child!

Xiao Zou was jealous in his heart, but his face calmed down. Softly said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." ”

She didn't refute a word, her expression was so supple, which made Ji Ze a little surprised, and couldn't help but glance at Xiao Zou: "After Gu Caiping passed through the door, you can't hold back for the time being, and endure it for a year and a half." When she gives birth to a child, you can toss her however you want. ”

After a pause, he softened his voice again: "I know you're not happy. You don't want other women to give me a baby. But I'm at this age, and I can't go without an heir all the time. In the future, the title of the Marquis of Weining Mansion will also have to be inherited. You just endure this time, and when you have a child, I will find a reason to send Gu Caiping to the Grange to recuperate, and then the child will be handed over to you to raise. You should rest assured! ”

Listening to these affectionate words, Xiao Zou not only did not let go, but became more and more ruthless in his heart.

The heir is so heavy in Ji Ze's heart! The son must not come out of Gu Caiping's belly, if he wants to be born, it should be her next life!

It turns out that I haven't made up my mind for a long time, and I'm always worried about this and that. Now that I have finally made a ruthless decision, my heart has suddenly become clear. With the right planning, it's worth taking some risks.

Of course, such an idea must not be known to Ji Ze, lest he stop it. It's never too late to wait until you're pregnant. When the time comes, Ji Ze can't stop it even if he wants to.

Xiao Zou secretly thought in his heart, and a touching smile appeared on his face: "Yutang, you treat me really well." Don't worry, I've listened to what you say. I will never make things difficult for Gu Caiping, and I will take good care of her food, clothing, and daily life. ”

Seeing her react like this, Ji Ze's heart was relieved, and a smile appeared on Jun's face: "It's good that you can figure it out." Tomorrow I will personally go to Gu's house to discuss marriage. ”

These two sentences undoubtedly inserted another knife in Xiao Zou's fragile chest.

Xiao Zou pressed the sourness in his heart, cheered up and said: "Since you want to marry Gu Caiping, the wedding date must be set quickly, so as not to be seen by others." Gu's filial piety period has not yet expired, and you are a continuation, so there is no need to be too public. Just set up a few tables for a banquet and invite some family and friends to watch the ceremony. ”

Ji Ze has no opinion on this: "All of them are simple." I'll talk to the Gu family, and I don't think they will mind. ”

What else is there to mind?

Her daughter has lost her innocence and is pregnant with his flesh and blood. Now the Gu family only hopes that he will marry someone sooner, and there will definitely not be too many opinions on family matters.

Xiao Zou thought harshly in his heart, but said with a smile in his mouth: "I will order someone to take the eight characters of your and Gu Caiping's birthdays to one, and pick a suitable day from next month." You will go to Gu's house the day after tomorrow and send the happy day of marriage to the past. ”

Ji Ze responded in one gulp.

It's really neat and refreshing. Xiao Zou's heart was angry, sour and bitter, and he endured it all with extraordinary self-control

The next day, Xiao Zou asked the senior monk to combine the eight characters of his birthday and chose an auspicious day. We have prepared a variety of gifts for the special day. Another day later, Ji Ze went to Gu's house in person with a generous gift.

Such a movement naturally can't be hidden from the people in the Hou Mansion.

After Zou learned about this, he was speechless for a long time in shock. The intention of Master Gu and Mrs. Gu's visit that day was also very clear

"What the hell is going on?" Zou couldn't help but ask Xu Jinyu: "Wasn't the wedding originally scheduled for next year?" How can the gratuitous end be advanced? ”

Xu Zheng also looked puzzled: "Yes, I also think it's strange." It has not been a year since the death of my cousin-in-law, and the son of the world is so anxious to marry a newcomer, and I am afraid that it will not sound good when it is spread out! ”

It's not just that it doesn't sound good! I don't know how much gossip there will be.

When Gu Caiping passed the door, the pregnancy couldn't be hidden. Xu Jinyu said: "The prince is so anxious to marry Gu Caiping, of course, there is a reason, and it doesn't hurt to sue you now." Gu Caiping is pregnant. ”

What the? Gu Caiping turned out to be pregnant?

Zou and Xu Zhengju were stunned.

"Did you know about it when you went to Gu's house that day?" Zou frowned and asked, "I remember that day, you and Yu'er came back at noon." ”

Xu Jinyu nodded: "Yes, Gu Caiping is pregnant, but she doesn't dare to tell anyone." On that day, there was a birthday party, in fact, they wanted to see me and ask me what I should do. I persuaded her to either kill the child or marry into the Hou Mansion as soon as possible. She herself insisted on choosing the second one. ”

This is Gu Caiping's own decision, and no matter what happens in the future, it will be no different.

Although Zou felt that Gu Caiping was doing something inappropriate, after all, this was the matter of the Gu family and Ji Ze, and she had nothing to question as an outsider: "Forget it, it's not our turn to worry about these things, the prince is willing to marry, Gu Caiping is willing to marry, let them toss whatever they love!" ”

Xu Jinyu smiled happily: "Mother, it's right that you can think so." They have a mess of things, I don't know how long they will have to toss in the future! Let's just leave it alone and wait to see the excitement. ”

Since knowing Ji Ze's true face, Zou no longer has a good impression of Ji Ze. Wen Yan smiled and nodded.

Xu Zheng tugged at the corners of his lips and said, "Actually, the two of them are a match made in heaven. ”

One is sinister and ruthless, and the other is unattainably wishful thinking. Then there is the ill-intentioned Xiao Zou family watching from the sidelines

When Gu Caiping marries into the Hou Mansion, it is strange that chickens and dogs will not make trouble. (To be continued......)

PS: My daughter was admitted to a key middle school this year, and at the beginning of next month, I plan to accompany her to travel for about a week. So, I'm going to save my manuscript from tomorrow. It can only be more than four thousand a day, so I won't open it and update it, and I will change it at eight o'clock in the morning.
