"Xianggong, I'm sorry," Grandma Gu San lowered her head and said, "It's mine, what can I do now." ”

"What else can I do," Gu Sanye sighed: "I'll go talk to Lan'er and see if I can convince her." If it really doesn't work, then I'll write to my father in advance and explain it. Father is not an unreasonable person, and he may be able to understand our thoughts with him. ”

At the mention of Scholar Gu, Grandma Gu San couldn't help but start to be full of resentment again, but she held back for a while, and finally didn't dare to say anything too ugly in front of her husband, but just muttered: "That's not necessarily." If he is really willing to take care of you, he will not press you in Ningling for so many years for the sake of the Gu family, the interests of the family are important, and your future is not important? You were obviously the most shrewd and capable of the brothers before, but now even the fourth brother has been promoted to the sixth grade, and he has already surpassed you. I think your future has been delayed by him. ”

Gu Sanye turned around and glanced at his wife, his expression was complicated, he didn't say anything, just sighed and shook his head and turned to leave.

One thing Gu Sanye is actually right, Gu Zhengzhi, who is a scholar of Duanming Palace, is naturally not an unreasonable person, and Gu Sanye's idea is also a good way to make up for it. But his idea can only work in an ideal situation.

Now, it is a little difficult for Gu Sanye's wish to come true. Because Gu Sanye and his wife didn't know, just when they were worried about Gu Yilan's marriage, Gu Daxue and his wife had already discussed the marriage of going to the Anguo Mansion.

Of course, the conversation between Gu Sanye and his daughter was not very smooth on this day. Of course, Gu Yilan did not confront Gu Sanye in person, nor did she mention Mu Zhengyi and Anguo Mansion's marriage proposal in front of him, but like prevaricating Gu San's grandmother, it was impossible for her grandfather to agree with the Lin family's relatives, and persuaded Gu Sanye and his wife to give up their original plans as soon as possible.

"Lan'er," Gu Sanye pinched the bridge of his nose tiredly: "I have the reason, don't be too stubborn, it's wrong for us to not discuss the Lin family's relatives with your grandfather in advance, but you also have to be considerate of our difficulties." The Lin family is already a first-class good family. ”

"What my father taught me was," Gu Yilan bowed her head respectfully and was taught: "It's the daughter who is not filial." But father, in recent days, there have been many rumors in Beijing that Lin Xiang intends to say goodbye to old age, didn't my father hear the rumors? Grandfather should know. ”

"Of course I do." Gu Sanye replied: "But don't be so short-sighted. Lin Xiang is old, his pro-party students are still in the court, and his sons are also having a bright career, he is a dignified first assistant, can Gao Lao not pave the way for the Lin family's nephews and nephews? The second master of the Lin family is the most promising of his sons at the moment, don't look at it at the moment, he is only a seventh-rank official, but his position is important, much better than your fourth uncle's sixth-grade idle position. As I expected, the second master of the Lin family will be the person who will be the top of the Lin family in the future, so I am willing to marry you to his son! Lan'er, I am your biological father, how can I not think carefully about it for you, this is really an excellent family business. ”

"The daughter knows her father's hard work," Gu Yilan still lowered her head, and said respectfully but firmly: "But my daughter doesn't want to marry Lin Zhiting." ”

The father and daughter each talked their own words, and the emotions of the two Rao were quite stable and their attitudes were gentle, so the atmosphere was still harmonious, but they couldn't talk about it in any way. Gu Sanye had no choice but to take his daughter, and this matter was his fault, and he couldn't lose his temper if he wanted to, so he had to stand up and prepare to leave.

"Father," seeing that Gu Sanye was about to leave, Gu Yilan saluted him respectfully, and then said softly: "It will be fifteen in a few days, and my grandmother will be there before my daughter comes, and after fifteen, I will send someone to pick up my daughter back to Beijing." The daughter thought that in a few days, the carriages and horses in Beijing would arrive, and the daughter wanted to go out for a few days to buy some gifts for the sisters at home. ”

Gu Sanye looked at his daughter fixedly, his eyes were very sharp, and after a while, he slowly nodded and said, "You can discuss this matter with your mother." ”

Gu Sanye understands that for such a trivial matter as purchasing a gift back to Beijing, Gu Yilan has no reason to ask him about it, she only needs to tell her mother about such a thing, and Gu San's grandmother will naturally arrange everything neatly.

Gu Yilan is like this now, she just wants to tell him that she wants to go back to Beijing and doesn't want to continue to stay with her parents.

Wife's right! Gu Sanye strode away angrily, thinking as he walked, he really had put her in Beijing for too long, and now he was separated from his parents, no matter how well they treated her with their hearts and lungs, they couldn't be familiar.

Seeing Gu Sanye's unkind face, Fang Xin and Fang Zhi trembled with fright, until Gu Sanye came out of Gu Yilan's courtyard and her back disappeared outside the moon gate, Fang Zhi leaned over, her face was a little panicked.

"Sister, are you alright?" Fang Zhi helped Gu Yilan to sit down: "Sister has been standing and listening to the third master's lesson for so long, her legs have long been sore, and the slave maid will rub it for you." ”

"It's fine." Gu Yilan shook her head and sat directly at the desk: "Fangxin, grind the ink." ”

The calm Fang Xin nodded immediately, directly opened the cabinet and took out the envelope and stationery and put them in front of Gu Yilan, and then began to roll up her sleeves and polish the ink.

Gu Yilan held the pen and thought carefully for a while before cautiously putting down the pen and starting to write a letter. Her first letter was not long, just three pages of letterhead, and after it was written, she carefully dried the letter, folded it and put it in the envelope, and wrote a few words on the envelope.

"Sister," Fang Xin, who was standing on the side, lowered her head and looked at the envelope, and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Don't you write to Sister Mu first?" Your marriage to Prince Mu...... Over there, sir...... In short, the slave maid felt not very relieved, why didn't my sister write to Sister Mu first, and inform her and Master Mu of the affairs of our family, so that the Anguo Mansion would have a room to deal with it. ”

"To be written." Gu Yilan nodded, and handed the letter that had been written to Fang Xin: "It's just that the affairs at home are more urgent." I didn't expect my father to be so close to the Lin family in private, I originally thought that my grandfather would tell him, but ...... Forget it, it's useless at the moment. Fangxin, you take the letter out of the corner gate, find a mother-in-law to accompany you to the Civil Information Bureau, and send it back to Beijing with the fastest messenger, and you will send it out today, I am a senior, some things are not easy to persuade, and I can only ask my grandfather to come forward to prevent my father from being too involved with the Lin family. ”

"But sister," Fang Zhi asked curiously while opening the box to give Fang Xin the silver, "Fang Xin will definitely not be able to hide the third master and the third grandmother when she goes out now!" ”

"I didn't want to hide it from them," Gu Yilan replied without raising her head: "Fangxin, don't delay, go and come back quickly." ”
