Of course, Grandma Gu San would not be left behind in such a flattering thing, she immediately came up and took the jade hairpin in Gu Yilan's hand, and smiled at her daughter by the way, with some tacit joy and pride in her eyes.

"Mother," Grandma Gu San took the hairpin and compared it on Mrs. Gu's head, and asked the maid behind her to hand over the grate: "This is a piece of Duchess Anguo's heart, don't you refuse, right?" ”

"They are all in-laws, and they should help each other," Mrs. Gu shook her head, and stretched out her hand to block Gu San's grandmother's hand holding the hairpin: "Where can I accept such a heavy gift from others?" ”

"It's because they're all in-laws, grandmother, you don't need to be so polite." Gu Yilan immediately replied with a smile: "Although this jewelry is valuable, it is also a courtesy exchange between in-laws. If you really talk about the seniority of relatives, your old man is an elder, and this set of jewelry for your aunt can be regarded as filial piety. In fact, before the granddaughter came back, the eldest aunt told her granddaughter to pay her respects to her grandmother on her behalf. ”

"How can you say that." Mrs. Gu immediately shook her head: "You kid is really solid-eyed, your in-law's eldest uncle is the grandfather of the country, if you come back from the north, you will stand in front of your grandfather every day." Your mother-in-law's aunt is the Duchess of the Kingdom, and she is a serious one-class order, in front of her, where can she only talk about relatives. ”

"Mother, you know," Grandma Gu San immediately replied: "Lan'er, this child was raised by you with your own hands, although she got married and left home, you are still the first in line with the elders who can really make her miss in her heart." This child is a solid-eyed filial piety to you, and when she heard her mother-in-law's words, she was not only busy and happy, but also remembered what she was doing. ”

Grandma Gu Si on the side and a few young ladies of the Gu family were busy staring at the dazzling set of jade jewelry, but they didn't care too much about what Grandma Gu San said. But Second Grandma Gu pursed her lips lightly and lowered her eyelids.

Grandma Gu glanced at Grandma Gu, with a bit of schadenfreude in her eyes, and then said, "Yes!" Mother, don't refuse, this set of jewelry is not only a piece of Duchess Anguo's heart, but also a piece of filial piety of the ninth sister. ”

"The ninth sister really knows how to borrow flowers to offer Buddha." When the youngest lady thirteen heard this, she pouted unhappily. But she only muttered in a low voice, and didn't dare to sweep Mrs. Gu's interest loudly.

Miss Eleven, who was sitting next to her, didn't hear her mouth break, and turned her head to continue to look at the set of jade jewelry. And Mrs. Gu didn't look very reluctant at this time, and Grandma Gu San waited for her to arrange her hair bun, and inserted the thick jade hairpin in the obvious position on her head.

The maids immediately held the bronze mirror in front of Mrs. Gu, who looked at the reflection in the bronze mirror and stroked her sideburns with her hand, looking very satisfied.

"Beautiful! It's so pretty! Grandma Gu immediately said very cheerfully: "Mother, why don't you change the earrings and collar?" ”

"Don't go out, dress up like that, what are you doing?" Mrs. Gu replied with a smile: "When you have a chance, you will wear it and go out." ”

Gu Yilan smiled and covered the jewelry box, personally picked up the jewelry box, and handed it to Mrs. Gu's personal maid.

"Alas! Our ninth sister is a filial child. Second Grandma Gu praised Gu Yilan without raising her eyelids, but her tone was a little yin and yang: "You suddenly ran back, and you came home to give a thank you gift, which scared us a lot, thinking that something was wrong with you." ”

"Second daughter-in-law," Mrs. Gu's face sank, "If you can't speak, shut up." I think I'm too indulgent with you on weekdays, but over the years, you've become less and less growing. You also look at your sister-in-law and your third brother and sister, which one is like you, who is so frivolous and ignorant at an old age? ”

Gu Er's grandmother is a noble daughter from the Hou Mansion, her mother's background is relatively tough, and she has a cousin who has been promoted to the fourth grade at a young age. It was rare for Mrs. Gu to reprimand her so harshly.

Besides, when Gu Yilan returned to her parents' house today, the concubines and girls in the family were there, and in front of so many people, Gu Er's grandmother was reprimanded, and her face immediately swelled purple. But she didn't dare to argue, but quickly stood up and bowed her head to admit her mistake.

Grandma Gu, who is always pressed by her younger siblings on weekdays, is happy this time. She picked up the teacup, covered the smile on the corner of her lips, and didn't help Gu Er's grandmother speak. And Gu San's grandmother is even more proud, and the second sister-in-law looks arrogant on weekdays, she has long been unconvinced.

Grandma Gu San felt that it was clear that her father-in-law was the most promising one among the Gu family's grandfathers, and her daughter was married well, so she should be the most face-saving one among the Gu family's grandmothers.

Gu Yilan raised her eyes and gently swept her mother's smug face, smiling slightly. Very good! That's it! The arrogant mother, the mother who wants to overpower the concubine in everything, may become her best help in the future.

Mrs. Gu was in a good mood.

The granddaughter went home this time, and she really came to express her gratitude for the Anguo Mansion, and she didn't say a word about it, but gave something to her, and after passing the word for the Duchess of Anguo, she was like a married daughter who went back to her parents' house to see it, accompanied by the elders, and the parents talked about some gossip.

However, these two in-laws, one is the Anguo Mansion that guards the northern border, and the other is the Duanming Palace University Scholar's Mansion, which is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, so even if the women in the back house gossip, they can't actually get around the topics related to the court.

In particular, the biggest news in Beijing at the moment is that Mrs. Mu of the Anguo Mansion sent her two grandsons and all the martial masters and guards in the family to escort the ordnance, grain and grass to the north with the Jin Ling guards.

"Everyone has been sent out, what can you do at home?" Mrs. Gu asked with great concern: "Although you are the famous Anguo Mansion, and the thieves do not dare to enter your door easily, but now it has been spread all over the capital, and everyone knows that Old Madam Mu has sent all the people in the family out, and now only the female relatives are left in the mansion." If this is remembered by the thief, how can it be touched into it? Why don't you go back with a team of our nursing home, so that you can help watch the door. ”

"It's fine." Gu Yilan smiled: "This matter has reached the emperor's ears, and I haven't told my grandmother yet, the emperor sent a team of Xiaojin guards to come over early this morning, and there are Xiaojin guards guarding the street of our house now, so grandmother can rest assured." Besides, it's not that there is no one at home, the guards are gone, but the servants are still there, and there is still a little sister at home. Grandmother probably didn't know that our little sister was more powerful than the fifth and sixth brothers. ”
