Gu Shangshu Mansion.

Mrs. Gu, who was entertaining guests in the living room, saw a servant hurriedly come and go: "Madam, the princess of Huainan came to visit Madame, and she is waiting outside the second gate at the moment." ”

"Who are you talking about?" Mrs. Gu was a little unconvinced of what she was hearing.

"The princess of Huainan." The minion repeated.

Mrs. Gu was stunned when she heard this, she never imagined that one day Feng Lingxi would come to visit.

And today is still the day when Feng Lingxi returns to the door, what is the purpose of her visit at this time?

In the past, he still wanted to rely on Yan Yan's aunt to control Feng Lingxi, and even wanted to marry his adopted daughter Gu Xiyan to Yan Yan as his wife.

But last time, he was really suppressed by Feng Lingxi's tough methods, and he didn't dare to make trouble in front of Feng Lingxi again.

She only hoped that Yan Yan could come back to call the shots for her, but after Yan Yan returned to Beijing before, her attitude towards him was cold and indifferent.

This made her want to sue, but she didn't know where to start.

In the end, Yan Yan left Beijing, and when something happened, everything was so sudden.

When Feng Lingxi married into the Huainan Palace, without Yan Yan, Feng Lingxi was not easy to mess with, she felt that as long as she ignored Feng Lingxi in the future, Feng Lingxi would not come to her on the pole.

Without Yan Yan, they would be equivalent to going their separate ways on the road, and they would have nothing to do with each other anymore.

Who would have thought that they would hear the news of Feng Lingxi's visit today?

Mrs. Gu wanted to say that she couldn't see it, but it just so happened that another lady from the house came to visit today.

Who in Beijing doesn't know Yan Yan's filial piety to his aunt?

Now Yan Yan has just had an accident.

Feng Lingxi came to the door as a surviving person, if she turned Feng Lingxi away in front of all the ladies, I am afraid that within half a day, the news about how snobbish and mean she was in the capital would spread.

Mrs. Gu has always cherished feathers, how can she stand others pointing fingers at her?

"Since you're here, bring her over to meet her!" Mrs. Gu suppressed the displeasure in her heart, and cursed fiercely in her heart Feng Lingxi for not having the eyesight to see, Yan Yan is dead, what is her relationship with her? Come back to the door! What a shame!

Feng Lingxi was quickly brought to Mrs. Gu.

She was followed by Yan Yan, Long Jiu and others who were pretending to be guards.

Mrs. Gu glanced at Feng Lingxi, and a trace of impatience flashed in her eyes.

She held the teacup, slowly pinned the tea foam with the lid of the cup, and asked the elder's shelf, "What kind of wind blew you here today?" Isn't it the day to go back to your parents' home? It's not always good to run around. ”

Clearly speaking and secretly sarcastic, as soon as Mrs. Gu's words fell, the ladies who were guests covered their lips and chuckled.

Feng Lingxi has become insignificant in their eyes because of Yan Yan's "death".

Think about it, is there a future for a woman who is not liked by her husband's family, has the status of a widow, and has no children under her knees?

There's definitely no future!

Who cares about that?

Feng Lingxi didn't have the embarrassment that Mrs. Gu imagined, but was full of energy, with a light smile on his face all the time, and slowly walked to an empty seat and sat down.

She has a beautiful physique, a dignified manners, and her every move is picky, and there is nothing imperfect.

It is even much better than the demeanor of many nobles in the palace.

Compared with Feng Lingxi, it seems that this is Feng Lingxi's home field.

A few ladies who were guests in the valley mansion suddenly became a little restrained.

They looked at Feng Lingxi, and then at Mrs. Gu.

found that Mrs. Gu was just ugly, and did not reprimand.

And they also have a feeling, as if as soon as Feng Lingxi becomes stronger, Mrs. Gu is a little weaker.

There is even a look of jealousy.

There seemed to be a smell of gunpowder in the air.

Several ladies looked at each other and then got up to say goodbye to Mrs. Gu.

Mrs. Gu's face was ugly, and she was angry that Feng Lingxi didn't give her face.

Seeing that the ladies of the various provinces were leaving, they could only hold up a smile and send the ladies of the various provinces.

After waiting for only her and Feng Lingxi's two people to be left in the living room, Mrs. Gu could no longer hold back the smirk on her face, snorted coldly, and said bluntly: "You and I don't deal with each other, why do you come to the door today?" It can't be a door-to-door visit for Mrs. Ben, right? Would you be that kind? ”

Feng Lingxi looked at Mrs. Gu lightly, and after a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, she sighed: "Mrs. Gu's body is really beyond my expectations, it is much better than before." ”

When she said this, her voice paused, and her slender white fingers gently knocked on the table, and continued: "It's as if the prince is gone, and Mrs. Gu will be happier." ”

It seemed that Feng Lingxi's words hit Mrs. Gu's mind, and the teacup held by Mrs. Gu suddenly tilted, and he hurriedly tightened the teacup and tea lid so that it didn't fall to the ground.

Mrs. Gu's reaction was too obvious, and Feng Lingxi just blew her up, and she was guessed.

It turned out that Mrs. was looking forward to Yan Yan's death!

Feng Lingxi sneered and glanced at Yan Yan who was standing behind her and pretended to be a guard, this is the person you have protected for more than ten years, but you are always looking forward to your death?

The look in Yan Yan's eyes was as deep as a whirlpool, and there was a cold light in it.

Why did Mrs. Gu always look forward to Yan Yan's death?

Neither Feng Lingxi nor Yan Yan is stupid.

They can guess some reasons, it is because Mrs. Gu must have done some bad things, he is afraid that Yan Yan will find out one day, and he is greedy for the benefits that can be squeezed from Yan Yan.

This kind of worry tormented Mrs. Gu day and night, so that her body became more and more dilapidated.

It wasn't until the news of Yan Yan's death came that the pressure in Mrs. Jia's heart, which was like a big mountain, suddenly moved away.

Therefore, when the mood is good, the body will naturally improve.

"Mrs. Gu, I came here today to have some old things I want to ask Mrs. Jia Gu."

Feng Lingxi got straight to the point.

Mrs. Gu has been pampered for many years, because of Yan Yan's care, she has always been able to do things willfully, and you don't have anything unpleasant to her in Gu Mansion.

Such pampering and pampering made Mrs. Gu no longer good at hiding her emotions, and she could show almost anything she thought in her heart.

It's just that the look on Mrs. Gu's face is resistant.

She didn't want to, and even avoided the topic of Feng Lingxi.

However, Feng Lingxi's gaze only paused on her face and then shifted away, and he didn't mean to ask Mrs. Jia if she would agree, so she asked on her own.

"How much did you know about my mother-in-law back then, and what role did you play in it? Are you really Yan Yan's aunt? ”

Every question Feng Lingxi asked made Mrs. Gu's heart tremble.

Especially Feng Lingxi's last inquiry.

She didn't know what Feng Lingxi knew, and she was very panicked in her heart.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I'm not feeling well today, please leave, or don't blame me for being rude."

Mrs. Gu ordered the eviction.

"Smack." Feng Lingxi clapped his hands, and the secret guard hidden in the shadows suddenly appeared and confronted the terrifying people who wanted to drive people out of the Gu Mansion.

The subordinates of the Gu Mansion were holding sticks, but Feng Lingxi's secret guards didn't feel bullying at all, and they all drew their shiny long swords.

In an instant, the subordinates of the Gu Mansion were so instigated that their legs were weak.

"How can this be true? Go and call the master. Mrs. Gu saw a row of long swords, and the bottom of her heart was empty.

What made her feel a little confident in her heart, she felt that Feng Lingxi was not afraid of her, but in the face of Gu Shangshu, who had real power, she should be afraid in her heart.

As long as Gu Shangshu is called, Feng Lingxi, who deceives people too much, will obediently admit his mistake.

Feng Lingxi didn't mind that Mrs. Gu called Gu Shangshu over at all.

Gu Shangshu's people used to rely on Yan Yan's promotion to sit in the above position.

Although he has the power, when facing Mrs. Gu, he can only be a man with his tail between his legs, and he must follow Mrs. Gu in everything.

Even Mrs. Jia couldn't have children, and she didn't dare to take a concubine.

In the past, he held Mrs. Gu on the premise of being afraid of Yan Yan.

Now that there is no Yan Yan to be Mrs. Jia's backer, how can Gu Shangshu, who has been suppressed for a long time, not want to turn over and become the master?

It's just that Gu Shangshu lacks an excuse.

Otherwise, disposing of the old wife for no reason will always leave people with a handle to chew their tongues, but if the reason is passable, Feng Lingxi doesn't believe that Gu Shangshu will not seize this opportunity.

And today, Feng Lingxi sent Mrs. Gu to Gu Shangshu.

Since Mrs. Gu wants to invite Gu Shangshu over, Feng Lingxi is of course happy to see it.

She nodded to a few of the guards, and asked them to open a passage and report to Mrs. Gu's people.

Seeing Feng Lingxi's soft attitude, Mrs. Gu was proud in her heart, and became more and more determined, and she wanted to invite Jia Shangshu to come over to support his decision.

Gu Shangshu came in a hurry.

After seeing Feng Lingxi, he was stunned.

Looking at the few secret guards who were full of evil spirits, Gu Shangshu decided to be polite to Feng Lingxi.

"I don't know why the princess of Huainan came to the door in person? It's the sword soldiers who have met, and I'm afraid it's not very good to spread it. ”

Gu Shangshu means that we can put down our weapons and have a good chat, which is good for you and me, and everyone is good!

Feng Lingxi glanced at Mrs. Gu with a smile to himself, and then said to Gu Shangshu very politely: "I rushed to the mansion today because I wanted to reconcile the account book with Mrs. Gu. ”

Gu Shangshu was stunned for a moment, thinking that Mrs. Gu had helped Yan Shizi manage many chores, and then thought of Feng Lingxi's marriage to the dead Yan Shizi.

Suddenly I realized.

Feng Lingxi should have come this time for the sake of accounting, and anyone who would do this would do the same.

Since Yan Yan is gone, why not grab the money into your own hands? Besides, she is already married to Yan Shizi, and it is natural to take back the shop that Yan Shizi once handed over to her aunt to help take care of it herself.

"Since the princess of Huainan is here for this, why bother to use knives and guns, just hand over to the insider." Gu Shangshu said good-naturedly.

Although he knew that when Mrs. Jia was taking care of Yan Shizi's shop, she would definitely fill her own pockets and subsidize it to Gu Mansion.

Thinking about it this way, he still has some flesh pain.

It's just that he doesn't want his official reputation to be damaged because of this money.

If it is spread in the future that the nephew is gone, it will become the family property of the nephew and daughter-in-law, can he still be an official? If you say it, you will be poked in the back.

Gu Shangshu coughed dryly and motioned to his wife to take out Yan Shizi's shop account books and keys.

Mrs. Gu glared at Gu Shangshu, not believing that Gu Shangshu was actually on Feng Lingxi's side.

"No, she's so young, how to take care of it? Or is it rest assured that the concubine is in charge, he doesn't have to do any work, wouldn't it be good to eat dividends every month?

Do you think it's easy to shop? It's so difficult to do business now, there are so many loss-making shops, and the concubine is for her good, it's really a white-eyed wolf! ”
