() Rao Shi used to think that Gu Chen was just a businessman and not worthy of his daughter, but after a series of evolutions from prison to prison and then to promotion, he had to admit that if Gu Chen wanted to be an official, he would definitely not be worse than their older generation.

He is indeed capable and good-looking, and he is not inferior to the sons of those princes and ministers.

It's just that the only thing is that Gu Chen's mind is too deep, even if he is sitting in front of him now, he can't see through him.

Such a person makes him feel very uneasy, and he can only observe the promises he gave.

……

Qin Niang and Gu Chen had lunch in Yang's mansion before returning home, after returning to her mother's house, her mood was obviously much better, Gu Chen saw this, and took the opportunity to propose: "I see that it is still early, why don't you go to the front Yongfang Zhai to sit down, you used to like the dim sum there the most." ”

As he spoke, he picked out the corner of the curtain and looked outside, it happened to be Yongfangzhai in front, Qin Niang remembered that Mama Rui also liked the dim sum there the most, and even nodded: "It's okay, bring some back later." ”

When Gu Chen heard this, he was overjoyed, and he raised his voice to order the coachman to stop, and then jumped down first and helped Qin Niang get out of the carriage.

Qin Niang saw her relatives today, she was in a very good mood, and she didn't care about him, and helped him to go upstairs in Yongfangzhai with kindness.

Presumably, there are few people in this restaurant shop in the capital who don't know Gu Chen, and when I saw them at this time, the guy came up from afar: "Gu Gongzi, rare guest, this must be a young lady, right?" Do you want to sit in a lobby or a private room? ”

When Gu Chen came by himself in the past, he didn't mind sitting in the hall, and he could listen to the gossip at the side table if he had nothing to do, but he took his wife out today to ease the atmosphere, so he naturally didn't want to sit in the crowded hall, so he said: "Private room, it's too noisy outside." ”

The guy nodded and responded happily: "Well, you two come with me." ”

The two followed the guy to a small private room, the window view inside is good, you can see the lively scene of the whole street, the private room is also very elegantly decorated, and the door is closed, but it is quite quiet.

Gu Chen asked for a pot of good tea and ordered two osmanthus cakes.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside, and then a sharp voice came: "Don't stop me, I saw people entering your store." ”

"This lady, the private room is full of distinguished guests, and she can't be rushed, so please sit outside for a while first, and let me report it." The shopkeeper said anxiously.

"You get up, stop me again, be careful that I let my master tear down your shop." The woman said arrogantly.

Immediately, there was a thud outside, and soon, footsteps approached the private room where they were.

Qin Niang frowned, she finally came out for a trip, it was really a disappointment.

Before she could tell whose voice was outside, the door of the private room seemed to be pushed open one by one, and then, there was a burst of cursing and laughter from the guys, and soon, the door of their private room was also vigorously pushed open from the outside.

A little woman who looked to be in her twenties appeared in the doorway, and she glanced at the people inside, and the corner of her eye twitched, revealing a satisfied smile.

"This

Madame, if you do this again, I will tell the shopkeeper. The man stopped in front of the woman and said with some annoyance on his face.

"You go and sue, now open it for me." The woman didn't even look at him, pushed him away, walked straight inside, looked at Gu Chen and said with a smile, "Gu Gongzi, you can make it easy for me to find it." ”

She went to Gu's house early in the morning, and the housekeeper said that Gu Chen accompanied Qin Niang back to her mother's house, and she kept letting people stare at the door of the Yang family, once she found that they were back, she came to report to her, she originally thought that the two would go back to the house directly, but she couldn't wait for anyone, and the next person reported that they came to this Yongfangzhai, and she couldn't wait for a moment, so she came over directly.

finally seized the opportunity to ease the relationship with his wife, Gu Gongzi, who was in a good mood, immediately sank his face when he saw this, and his tone was a little colder: "What are you looking for me?" ”

The woman walked over, generously found a place to sit down, and said with a smile: "Are you sure that you want to talk about private matters in such a place?" ”

The corners of Qin Niang's eyes jumped, even if she didn't know who this woman was at first, but seeing that she meant so much at the moment, coupled with this kind of unruly behavior, she also knew a little bit about the identity of this woman, and then, she also lost her interest in drinking tea and eating snacks.

"Man, please wrap up a portion of your taste, and send it back to the carriage outside the door." She knew that she couldn't drink this tea today.

She originally thought that Tang Wan was sent away, and she would finally be able to live a few comfortable days, but it turned out that she was too naïve.

Tang Wan's existence is like an appendage, even if she is not there, people related to her will still run out from time to time to disturb her good mood.

"Mrs. Tang said cautiously, others don't know, they still think that I have a personal relationship with you, you don't want a reputation, I, Gu Chen, am a clean person." Gu Chen glanced at the other party lightly, raised his hand to pour himself a cup of tea, and sipped it leisurely.

He didn't want Qin Niang to mistakenly think that he had any unclear relationship with the Tang family, once he brought this person back to the Gu Mansion, many things would be unclear.

Let's just leave it here.

Qin Niang raised her eyebrows, since he was not in a hurry to cover his shame, she was afraid, she was just watching a scene, or so, she also wanted to see what this Mrs. Tang wanted to do.

She didn't think that this Mrs. Tang ran over to settle accounts with Gu Chen because she learned that Tang Wan was sent to the temple, as far as she knew, the Tang lady in front of her Wu was not Tang Wan's biological mother, but Tang Wan's stepmother, what kind of life Tang Wan lived in the mansion in the past, she should know something even if she didn't deliberately inquire.

This continuation of hers is not a good person, she will stand out for a stepdaughter? She didn't believe it.

As the saying goes, no profit can not be early.

Sure enough, in the next moment, the Wu family said straight to the point: "Now that our family Wan'er has married into your Gu family, shouldn't the properties in her hands be handed over?" After all, it is a thing of the Tang family, and Gu Gongzi will not let Wan'er enter the door because of this little industry, Gu Gongzi said yes, right? ”

Gu Chen drank tea for a moment, but he didn't hurry to make a sound, and then, he listened to Wu continue to speak: "With Gu Gongzi's ability and financial resources, he can't look down on our Tang family's money, so what I mean with my master,

We are only married to daughters, not all the property of the family, and now that people have entered your house, as a woman, after getting married, you will naturally have to marry and teach children in the house, and those properties will be taken care of flawlessly. ”

Every time Wu said a word, he was secretly observing Gu Chen's face, wanting to see something from his face.

It's a pity that Gu Chen is always a person who can disguise, and on his iceberg-like face, he doesn't show any emotion, so that the Wu family can't see the reason for it for a long time, and he is quite disappointed in his heart, and immediately, he decided to take the next fierce medicine: "Since Wan'er can't take care of the Tang family's property, then she should hand it over and let our Tang family take care of it themselves, think about it, Gu Gongzi shouldn't accept our Tang family's daughter because of this little money, you say, right?" ”

Wu knows that Gu Chen has always been proud and has a strong desire to control, even if he marries the daughter of the Ministry of Industry, he does not make people feel that he is Gao Pan, ten miles of red makeup, and the pomp is extremely grand, how can such a man with strong self-esteem and cherish face make people think that he married each other because of a woman's money?

Not to mention the conceited Gu Chen, even if he were any man, he would not easily admit that he was plotting the property of his wife and concubine.

The Wu family believed that Gu Chen would not admit it, not to mention, his wife was still sitting here, as long as he didn't dare to admit it, he would have to obediently spit out their Tang family's property.

Wu's abacus clanged, but unexpectedly, after Gu Chen drank a cup of tea leisurely, he glanced at her lightly, and said in a non-hurried tone: "Mrs. Tang reminded me that my side room is a rich merchant in the entire capital, and I think I am really rich now." ”

The corner of Qin Niang's eyes twitched, and she glanced at Wu with a little sympathy, and saw that Wu was still full of confidence one moment, and the expression on her face was a little unbearable the next moment, she looked at Gu Chen in disbelief, and her voice also raised a few points: "Do you really want to be like this?" Aren't you afraid that others will say that you eat soft rice? ”

In this world where men are respected, it is undoubtedly shameful to eat soft rice, even if it is those gentlemen, they will not let others say that they eat soft rice.

"Eating soft rice is also a skill, isn't your Tang family eating soft rice?" Gu Chen sneered.

Wu choked, she didn't expect that she originally wanted to provoke him with these words, but he took her words and took the opportunity to be sarcastic.

Suddenly, Wu's neck was so angry that he felt a mouthful of old blood choked in his throat, and he could only swallow it raw.

"Gu Gongzi, aren't you afraid of the young lady's response like this?" Wu's eyes rolled, and she decided to try to persuade him in a different way, and after she said this, her eyes immediately followed Qin Niang on the side.

Qin Niang rolled her eyes silently, what does this have to do with her, Gu Chen wants to marry Tang Wan and occupy her property, what does it have to do with her, what she has in charge of is the public account in the mansion, is it possible that even Tang Wan's private property will be handed over to her?

"Mrs. Tang." Qin Niang played with the cup in her hand and glanced at her with a smile, "To be honest, no one thinks that there is a lot of silver, otherwise, Mrs. Tang would not have gone to the Gu family early in the morning to discuss this matter, I don't care about the property in Tang Wan's hands, whether it belongs to your Tang family's common property or Tang Wan's private property, but"
