Three days later, Mrs. Liu's birthday banquet was held as scheduled.

The people of Liufu began to prepare early in the morning, beating gongs and drums.

Near noon, the outside of Liufu was already impassable.

The Gu family's carriage stopped at the gate of Liufu, the green calyx lifted the curtain, and Gu Ziqing leaned out from inside.

The heat is steaming, and the sun makes people panic.

She wore a lake-green cloudy sky and water flowing fairy dress, the long skirt hung down at her feet, and between walking, the waves embroidered with white silk thread seemed to come alive, surging under her feet.

Three thousand green silk were neatly combed behind the head, two strings of fine emerald tassel hairpins passed through the bun, and the fine green jade hung around the thin waist, leaving the sound of jingling rings.

Green Calyx took her hand and helped her out of the carriage, Gu Ziqing looked up at the vermilion gate in front of him, except for sadness, there was only a strong hatred that could not be erased.

In her previous life, she treated Liu Zongcheng as a sincere person, but later found that the person in front of her was not a sincere person, and she thought that she would be separated and have nothing to do with it, but she didn't expect that this person could do it so absolutely.

colluded with the ministers and framed Zhongliang, Liufu relied on him to climb up step by step, but her Gu family became a stepping stone under his paving, those powers piled up with money, every penny and every penny were stained with the blood of her Gu family.

Gu Ziqing clenched his fists, took a deep breath, hid all the resentment in his eyes, and suppressed it.

Gu Rongzhan and Qin Zhiyi came from behind, and seeing this, Qin Zhiyi asked, "What's the matter, Qingqing, why don't you go in?"

"That's in. Gu Ziqing pulled her lips and smiled, and a gust of wind swept through, blowing away the broken hair on her forehead, revealing a pink scar.

The Gu Mansion is built according to the Su family's courtyard, every grass and tree reveals the low-key and simplicity of Gusu, although it looks simple and unpretentious, but if you take a closer look, you can find that the things placed in it are all treasures.

The banquet has been set up in the front yard, the male guests are sitting in the banquet, or chatting, or officialdom, the maids are shuttling among them, adding some wine and food from time to time, Liu Qingyuan is wearing a plain robe, and he is talking to a person, Gu Ziqing looked at it and squinted his eyes, that person is Song Su.

"Brother Gu!" Liu Qingyuan saw their group, and after saying a few words to Song Su, he walked over with a smile to say hello.

"Brother Liu. Father Gu naturally replied, and the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then Liu Qingyuan turned his head to look at Gu Ziqing, and a smile appeared on his gentle and elegant face: "Time flies, in a blink of an eye, Qingqing has grown so big, and my uncle's impression of you is still stuck in the glutinous rice balls when I was a child." ”

Gu Ziqing blessed his body and said softly: "Uncle Liu said that he laughed, it has been fifteen years, and it is time to grow up, otherwise it will always worry my father and mother, it will be Qingqing's unfilial piety." ”

"You kid, you are sensible, but a few days ago you hit your head in Liufu, and your uncle is busy with official business, so he didn't take the time to see you, don't blame your uncle. Liu Qingyuan said with a smile.

"What Uncle Liu said, blame or something, but it really hurts Qingqing, although Qingqing is in the boudoir, but there are some things, but he still understands. Gu Ziqing replied, every move, others can't find fault at all.

Gu's father and Gu's mother looked at her in surprise, and Gu's mother couldn't help but say: "Qingqing has really changed a lot, and even my mother is almost unrecognizable." ”

"Yes, sensible, if it was usual, where would you be so well-behaved? I ran to find Zong Cheng's kid earlier. Father Gu laughed and looked at Gu Ziqing's eyes with love.

"Speaking of Zong Cheng, today, taking advantage of my mother's birthday banquet, our two families will simply set the wedding date, otherwise Qingqing, such a smart and virtuous daughter-in-law, will be remembered by other stinky boys?" Liu Qingyuan touched his beard and said with a smile.

"Brother Liu, you are not kind, I am such a daughter as Qingqing, I don't want her to marry so early......" The two of you talked back and forth, and Liu Qingyuan invited Gu's father to the table.

Gu Ziqing and Gu's mother went to the women's table, and when they walked to the corridor, they suddenly felt something, her head was slightly sideways, and her eyes were squarely matched with Song Su in the men's seat.

Song Su squinted a pair of fox-like eyes, staring at her with a little inquiry, Gu Ziqing smiled slightly, turned his head away, and then took Gu's mother and walked towards the corridor.

"Heh—interesting. ”

"Mother, are you going to ask your son to apologize to that woman later?"

In the backyard, the Tan family brought Liu Zongcheng from the front hall and persuaded him bitterly.

"Son, you also know how hard your father has worked to fight for the position of governor now, if there is no financial support from the Gu family, everything he has done before will be in vain. ”

"Besides, the last time you injured Gu Ziqing, my mother didn't say anything about you, you know that the Gu family is important to our Liu family, but you are still so ignorant, and now you are not happy to just let you apologize, is it sincere to make our Liu family lose this help?" Tan Shi lowered his face coldly, and was very angry at Liu Zongcheng's stubbornness.

However, Liu Zongcheng was not willing to back down, and roared angrily: "Mother, how many times have I said it, I don't like Gu Ziqing, why do you have to tie the two of us together?"

"Shut up, that's what you can say, it seems that what your mother told you before is all about dog ears, right? If your father hears it, be careful that he breaks your legs!"

"I don't care what you think, you have to marry this Gu Ziqing, you have to marry if you don't marry, as the young master of the Liu family, you have the responsibility to seek a future for the Liu family! Now is not the time for you to be willful, have you ever thought about it, if the Gu family and the Liu family tear their faces, what will our family face? Not to mention such a privileged life now, even your father's career will be affected, have you thought about this?" Tan's tone intensified, looking at Liu Zongcheng's resentful face, a trace of dissatisfaction crossed his eyes.

"Mother, even if I apologize, but after all, I beat her injury, do you think that an eldest lady like Gu Ziqing, who has no one in her eyes, will forgive me so easily?" Liu Zongcheng sneered, he should have directly stoned her to death in the first place, it was better than being so aggrieved now!

"Hmph, you don't have to worry about this, that little hoof can think of you in his heart, and he didn't say anything about it at all, when the time comes, you will be subdued and coax her more, and this matter will be over, understand?" Tan said with some smugness.

Liu Zongcheng wanted to say something, but seeing Tan's unhappy look, he resisted the urge to speak, but a touch of disgust crossed his eyes.

When Gu Ziqing and Gu's mother walked to the inner hall, the ladies were talking separately, she asked Gu's mother to find the lady she knew, and she found a secluded place to sit down, waiting for someone to come and find fault.
