Chapter 37: Clearing the Portal

Gu Qingwan bowed to her grandmother, and then turned to kowtow to her father, and said: "My daughter understands that the second uncle and the second aunt are deeply affectionate, and she must be reluctant to punish the second aunt and sister, what the second uncle said is right, it is all Chun'er's girl's fault, but unfortunately she was killed like this, and today in the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, that girl said a lot of things that should not be said, saying that the second aunt was harsh on me and wanted to ruin my appearance, many official wives were present, if this word reached the ears of my grandfather, or was known by the officials, and the second uncle was a copy, it would be troublesome!" Chun'er died, and there was no one who even proved it for the second aunt! ”

The Lu family and Gu Tianyou were shocked, what the Lu family was afraid of was Gu Tianyuan and the Prime Minister's Mansion, and what Gu Tianyou was afraid of was being caught by political enemies, the most important thing for an official is the official reputation, the house is restless, and it is rumored that the second room treats the children of the long house harshly, then for him, it is a crime of not governing the family strictly!

The ancients said, self-cultivation Qi family rules the country and the world, if the family is not peaceful, how can we talk about governing the country and the world, he suddenly glanced at his niece meaningfully, this is still the niece who has no heart in the past?

If he didn't stop the Lu family, even if Gu Tianyuan forgave him, the political enemies in the Prime Minister's Mansion and the court were not so easy to talk to.

Thinking of this, Gu Tianyou pushed the Lu family away, and said with a calm face: "What the mother and eldest brother said is reasonable, the country has national laws, and the family has family rules, but although the Lu family and Yue'er are at fault, they are not at fault, and I hope that the mother and eldest brother will be taken lightly!" ”

Gu Tianyuan picked up his baby daughter and said distressedly: "Good daughter, I have wronged you." Father will seek justice for you. ”

"Daddy, Wan'er has no mother since she was a child, and she regards her second aunt as her own mother, Wan'er thinks that the second aunt also regards Wan'er as her daughter, but Wan'er didn't expect that the second aunt couldn't tolerate Wan'er so much. Although Wan'er is stupid, Wan'er also understands that Chun'er is just a subordinate, and she framed Wan'er like this in the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, if no one instructed Wan'er to believe it. Daddy, what did Wan'er do wrong, the second aunt and Sister Yue treated Wan'er like this, Wan'er was so sad. Gu Qingwan's eyes were full of tears, her tears were like beads with broken threads, and the more she spoke, the more choked her voice became.

"Good boy, you are not wrong, it is the father who is wrong, the father does not know people clearly, and you are entrusted to no one, you can rest assured, from now on, your father will not let go of those wicked people who want to harm you." Saying that, he looked at the Lu family with some meaning, and the Lu family who saw it was cold in his heart.

Gu Tianyuan glanced at Gu Tianyou coldly, and said coldly: "It's not a big deal to almost ruin Wan'er's reputation?" Second, you are too conniving with the Lu family, if you don't get rid of this wicked woman, then please move out of the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion, the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion can't tolerate any wicked people who hurt my baby daughter. ”

These words were so ruthless that even Old Madam Gu was shocked. She knew that her eldest son was protecting her calves, but she didn't expect that she would not hesitate to break with the second room to seek justice for Gu Qingwan.

"Gu Tianyuan! My old wife is not dead yet, are you so eager to break up? Are you trying to me off? Old Madam Gu slapped the table fiercely and glared at Gu Tianyuan.

"The son doesn't dare, but the Lu family is really excessive, the country is easy to change, and the nature of the country is difficult to change, and there will be a second time when there is a case of framing Wan'er, and the son will have such a daughter as Wan'er, please ask her mother to seek justice for Wan'er." Gu Tianyuan's attitude was tough, and he really shocked Old Madam Gu and Gu Tianyou.

Gu Qingwan couldn't wait to split up the family, the second room occupied the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion like a rice worm, and the family property accumulated by her father was almost lost by the second room, Mrs. Gu was an eccentric, favored the second son, and let the second room do anything wrong in her house.

Gu Tianyou is reluctant to split up, he is used to extravagance and waste, Gu Tianyuan has a high official rank, and he has a lot of money, and he also runs a lot of businesses privately, plus he has made a lot of military exploits, and the saint has rewarded a lot of good things, so the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion has a rich family.

After weighing it again, Gu Tianyou was unwilling to split up.

Old Madam Gu threw the question to Gu Tianyou, "Second child, you can do it." ”

"This ......." Gu Tianyou hesitated, he subconsciously looked at the Lu family.

The Lu family didn't want to be separated, let alone be divorced, she gritted her teeth and pulled Gu Qingyue to kneel down hatefully, "Master Hou, the concubine body is willing to hand over the stewardship rights, begging the master Hou not to let my lord take a divorce from the concubine, if the master divorces the concubine, the concubine body will not survive." ”

Gu Tianyuan just wanted to seek justice for his daughter, and didn't want to really force the Lu family to death, after thinking about it again, he decided to take a step back, but both the Lu family and Gu Qingyue had to be punished.

"Lu, not only do you have to hand over your stewardship, but you also swear that you don't dare to hurt Wan'er again in the future, if there is a next time, my Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion will not be able to tolerate you."

"Okay, my Lu clan swears to the sky that I will never dare to hurt Miss Gu in the future, otherwise the sky will thunder and I will not die well." Lu raised his three fingers and swore to the sky. She hated Gu Qingwan in her heart, and the future was long, and one day she would make Gu Qingwan pay a heavy price.

"Mother, the son is not filial, the Liu family is not good at following the son at the border all the year round, and he is not very familiar with many things in the Hou Mansion. In addition, Wan'er is not young, she should marry the prince of Zhao in two years, and she should have learned how to manage the house, which also needs her mother's teaching. Gu Tianyuan said respectfully.

"It's nature." Old Madam Gu nodded, "As the Marquis of Zhenyuan, the Liu family should have taken over the position of the main mother and took care of the Hou Mansion, and now it is not too late to teach her while my wife still has the energy." Liu is an honest person, and I am relieved to have her housekeeper. Wan'er's marriage is also approaching, the housekeeper naturally wants to learn, you, as a father, should care more about your daughter's marriage, and when you have time to discuss with Zhao Wangye when the children's marriage date is set? ”

"My son knows." Gu Tianyuan nodded in agreement, his expression was solemn, and it seemed that he had paid attention to his daughter's marriage.

The final result was that the Lu family was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall all night, and asked her to copy the female ring a hundred times, take back the stewardship, and be grounded in her own courtyard, while Gu Qingyue was grounded in her own courtyard again for a period of three months.

"Zilan, it's good that you found your father in time, otherwise how could he see the true face of Lu's mother and daughter." Back in the courtyard, Gu Qingwan took Zilan's hand and smiled. Gu Tianyuan went out to work, it was not easy for Zilan to find him, she was holding a kind of luck mentality, it was best to find her, even if she couldn't find her, there was still a way for the Lu family to ask for their own hardships.

Unexpectedly, even God was helping her, so she effortlessly let the Lu family lose her father's trust and let the housekeeping power be handed over to the Liu family.

"Miss, this is thanks to General Chen."

"Chen Yuan?" Gu Qingwan was a little surprised.

"Yes, the slave maid went to the military department to find the Hou Ye, and the people inside didn't know where the Hou Ye went. When he came out of the military headquarters, he happened to meet General Chen, and when he saw that the slave and maid looked anxious, he took the initiative to ask. It was he who brought the slave maid to find the Hou Ye, and this matter is really thanks to him. ”

After understanding the whole story, Gu Qingwan felt that she wanted to thank Chen Yuan, he really did her a great favor this time.

Liu suffered from a cold and his body never improved, so the housekeeping matter was handed over to Gu Qingwan to take care of. The new official took office with three fires, and the first thing Gu Qingwan did when she took office was to make a big change in the house, first of all, she would take the subordinates in her own yard. Most of the people in this house are from the Lu family, and she also has a lot of Lu eyeliner here.

Now that the Lu family has fallen, and the housekeeper power has returned to Gu Qingwan's hands, the subordinates in the mansion have begun to panic. In the past, they were all attached to the Lu family, and everything was sent by the Lu family, and they all did more or less sorry things for the long house.

Zilan gathered all the maidservants and mothers-in-law in the courtyard together, Gu Qingwan sat lazily on the chair, raised her eyes and looked at them casually, everyone trembled and lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at her.

"Now the stewardship has been handed over to my mother, and she will be the head of the Hou Mansion in the future. I called you here today to set up rules for you, so that you can know in your hearts who is the real master of the Hou Mansion. If you work in my yard, you should abide by the rules of my yard, and from now on, if you let me know who eats inside and outside, you will not blame me for being merciless. Do you understand? Her voice was neither loud nor small, but it was clear enough for everyone present to hear it clearly, and everyone was silenced by the inoffensive majesty of her.

"Got it!" Everyone present nodded and said in unison.

Gu Qingwan nodded with satisfaction, and after letting everyone disperse, she sent someone to call the little green in Gu Qingzhao's yard.

"Miss, the slave maid has transferred everyone to run errands, especially Chunlan, the slave maid transferred her to the dining room to get food for the young lady, and she won't be able to come back for a while." Zilan said in her ear in a voice that only two people could hear.

Seeing the two whispering, Xiao Lu wanted to listen closer, but was pushed away by Ziyu's quick eyes, she didn't dare to move, so she could only stand aside obediently and wait for Gu Qingwan's orders, "Miss, I don't know what happened to Miss Lady looking for a slave to come over?" ”

Gu Qingwan didn't speak, just kept looking at her, and she felt furious when she saw it. She was nervous in her heart, for fear that the eldest lady would know that she was the person sent by the second lady to spy on Young Master Zhao.

"Little Green, how long have you been with Zhao'er?"

"Back to the eldest lady, the slave maid has been with the young master for two years."

"Two years...... The time is not short, the second lady sent you to Zhao'er's side to take care of him! Gu Qingwan looked at her with a smile, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Xiao Lu's back was cold, and he quickly knelt down to show his loyalty and said: "Miss, the slave maid has been taking care of Young Master Zhao conscientiously, and she doesn't have the slightest intention of harming him, and the slave maid ....... the slave maid is loyal to Young Master Zhao." ”

"Oh? I didn't say you had bad intentions, but you admitted it yourself. If he remembers correctly, the last time you were by Zhao'er's side and instigated him to give up the inkstone to Brother An. ”

"Slave, slave and maid. Please see that you are not going to wronged the slave...... Yes! Before she finished speaking, Ziyu on the side stepped forward and slapped her twice, Xiao Lu was knocked to the ground, and her cheeks on both sides instantly swelled.

Ziyu reprimanded fiercely: "What are you talking to the eldest lady, if you dare to play tricks in front of the eldest lady again, be careful of the board!" ”
