Gu Yilan went back to her parents' house this time and stayed at home for about five days, almost every day, she had to find an excuse to "gossip" with Gu San's grandmother. Her father is very busy, it has been five days, Gu Yilan has only seen Gu Sanye once, and this is the only time they met, Gu Yilan didn't say anything superfluous, just like a filial and good daughter, she accompanied her parents to have a meal, that's all.

Gu Yilan put all the main effort on Gu San's grandmother, she knew that according to her mother's arrogance and chattering energy, these words would reach Gu Sanye's ears sooner or later.

After being dormant in Ningling for many years, what will Gu Sanye, who is also arrogant and arrogant, but unhappy in his heart, think? Gu Yilan felt that this was not difficult to predict.

Gu Sanye is a person with strong ability and courage, and he thinks very highly of himself, but he is not blindly high, in order to grab greater political interests, he is willing to use his brains, and he definitely gives up his capital to work hard.

Back then, in order to leave Ningling earlier, Gu Sanye dared to make an agreement with the Lin family privately without telling his grandfather, this time, for a better future, Gu Sanye naturally dared to stand in line in advance.

Besides, Gu Yilan didn't lie, King Yi's side, there was indeed no place for their Gu family. It is an established fact that Lee Xiang is in the way. If the Gu family wants to protect themselves, then they will continue to wait and see, but if they want to go further, they actually have no choice. As long as someone opens their mouths to break this matter, Gu Sanye will soon be able to figure it out.

Gu Yilan didn't know what her grandparents thought. According to what she knew about her grandfather, she thought that Scholar Gu should want to take a more stable path. But Gu Sanye is not, he will not be reconciled.

It was this unwillingness that would prompt Gu Sanye to make a more radical decision.

On the second day after Gu Yilan returned home, Xie Shurou took the initiative to write a letter to invite Mu Hongshang to go to Linglong Pavilion to see the jewelry, and she sent several jewelry patterns along with the letter, saying that she wanted to pick a few patterns and give them to the master of Linglong Pavilion to do.

When Mu Hongshang received the letter, she was by Mrs. Mu's side. Mu Lingyi and Mu Jinyi were not at home, Mr. Chen and Mr. Sun simply stopped reading classes in the afternoon, Mu Hongshang only needed to practice martial arts with Huiming early in the morning, and there was nothing to do on this day, so they stayed in the courtyard of Mrs. Mu from morning to night, coaxing the old lady to be happy.

"This Miss Xie Si will be eighteen in a blink of an eye," Old Madam Mu also took those jewelry and looked at it carefully: "This marriage probably can't be delayed any longer, I'm afraid that I won't prepare dowry jewelry for myself again?" ”

"When my grandmother talked about this, my granddaughter-in-law remembered it." Gu Yilan looked at those patterns and took out one of them: "Grandmother still remembers that the queen made a dress for her sister before, and inlaid with a lot of Dongzhu, all of which were removed by her granddaughter-in-law, and it was a waste to collect them for nothing." It's better to go to Linglong Pavilion with her sister tomorrow and take the beads to the masters to see if they can be inlaid into jewelry. I looked at the pattern drawn by Sister Xie so beautifully, and it was not bad to change it to a pearl setting. ”

"Okay." Old Madam Mu immediately nodded: "Miss Xie Si is also your friend, it is okay for you to go out for a walk with your sister, when you are young, you are always bored at home, but you are bored." ”

"That's just right." Second Mrs. Mu, who was still haggard, also smiled, and said: "I just turned out a few sets of red gold jewelry a few days ago, and the inlaid pearls and jade are all in good condition, but they are all young dowries, after so many years, the appearance is a little outdated, you take it to Linglong Pavilion by the way, see if you can change the style, if you can change it to look better, you can stay and wear it, so as not to waste it in vain." ”

"Mother, daughter-in-law has a lot of jewelry." Gu Yilan smiled and shook her head: "I'll take it to Sister Xie and ask her to help think about it and change it to a look that suits you." ”

"No, you can keep it." Second Mrs. Mu, who only had a silver hairpin on her head, shook her head: "I'm old, and I don't wear these fancy jewelry, and these things will be left to you, your sister, and the daughter-in-law of Tsing Yi in the future." ”

"What else does the second uncle think about me?" Mu Hongsheng's eyes bent widely, and he smiled deliberately: "I will have a lot of dowry in the future!" ”

"Your dowry in the future will naturally be more," Mrs. Mu replied with a smile: "You are the only girl in our family, and we will not have to add makeup to you in the future?" ”

"I don't want it," Mu Hongshang replied with a grin, "I still have to leave it for my brother and brother to marry a daughter-in-law!" Besides, I'm the only girl in our family right now, but in a few years, there may be more girls! I will have many little nieces, but my uncle and mother must not shake off all the dowry at the bottom of the box now, lest I hold my granddaughter in two years and regret it. ”

"If I can hold my granddaughter, I regret it." Second Lady Mu and Third Lady Mu laughed together: "Alas! It's better to be a girl, when you grow up, find a good family to marry, and you will be safe and secure for the rest of your life, and no one needs to worry about it. ”

The corners of Old Madam Mu's lips stiffened slightly, and then she cheered up and put on a smile: "You have to remember what you said." Don't come to me again when there are more granddaughters and the dowry is not enough. ”

Duchess An Guo, who had been sitting on the sidelines smiling silently, looked out the window and looked at the roses blooming in the yard. In the blink of an eye, it was already mid-spring, Tie Yi and Zhengyi were both twenty-one years old, and they should have gone home to marry their daughters-in-law, but they still did not return.

You have to have a daughter-in-law before you can have a granddaughter......

"Mother," Mu Hongsheng ran over and hugged Duchess Anguo's arm and shook it vigorously: "Why don't you go shopping with me tomorrow?" Sister Xie has a small wooden box for needlework, but it looks good, you can buy me one too. ”

"You young people go out, what am I going to do with you?" Duchess An Guo knew that her daughter was deliberately coaxing herself, so she also smiled cooperatively: "If you want anything, let your sister-in-law buy it tomorrow." But what do you want to do with the wooden box for needlework? You can't see the needle and thread in your hand, and the sewing thread is not as straight as your fourth brother's, and it is lined with a delicate wooden box, isn't it even more unsightly? ”

Duchess An Guo said something that made everyone in the room laugh, Mu Hongshang was not ashamed at all, seeing everyone laughing, she was a little relieved, so she replied with a smile: "The fourth brother is more clever than me, this is a good thing, the fourth brother's level of stitching is high, and the mother doesn't have to worry about the broken robes of his father and uncles and no one repairs them, the fourth brother can sew backpacks, and he is naturally very good at mending clothes." ”

"Look at our family," Mrs. Mu smiled and poked Mu Hongsheng's head: "Girls are raised roughly, but boys are very virtuous and can do needlework." ”
