Chapter 296: In-laws
"You are not afraid of attracting the emperor's taboo," Mrs. Gu looked at her husband, and her brows gradually frowned: "The family of powerful ministers and generals who hold the tiger talisman, this ......"
"What kind of person An Guogong is, the emperor knows in his heart. What kind of person I am, the emperor also knows in his heart. Scholar Gu smiled: "In other words, who is the emperor not taboo about?" Is he relieved of Lin Xiang, or is he relieved of me? Or are you relieved of Lee Xiang and Xie Xiang? No, he only trusts his own checks and balances. ”
"In that case," Mrs. Gu held back for a long time before she spoke, "That's why not...... It's better to ...... Alas! It's a pity for the ninth sister. ”
Scholar Gu squinted at Mrs. Gu, and suddenly realized, "Did you have a crush on someone earlier?" ”
"Xie Changjing's eldest son, Xie Mufeng, is a good person and has good knowledge, Xie is very fond of him, and he will definitely be promising in the future." Mrs. Gu sighed, and finally decided to tell the truth: "I have long taken a fancy to this child, our ninth sister is the same age as him, and he seems to like the ninth sister very much." Moreover, the ninth sister is good friends with his sister Xie Fourth Sister, and she is a suitable parent. If the ninth sister wants to marry the Xie family, then we will ...... with the Xie family."
"You're really high-minded." Scholar Gu didn't wait for Mrs. Gu to finish, so he sneered: "I actually took a fancy to Xie Changjing's son." Do you expect the ninth sister to marry into his family, and we will be able to form a good relationship with the Xie Mansion and advance and retreat together? Scold...... It's too beautiful to think about. Remind you that there is only one position of the first assistant, even if we become in-laws with the Xie family, when the matter comes, Xie Xiang doesn't mind stepping on my back. ”
"Sir, you're right, there is only one position as the first assistant," Mrs. Gu replied: "Even if they are in-laws, they are officials in the same dynasty, and sometimes they have to rely on their own abilities. But the concubine felt that no matter what, letting the ninth sister marry into the Xie family could only be better than now. Even if it is really like the old man at that time, Xie Xiang gets the position of first assistant, there is no harm to us, right? Xie Mufeng is smart and fast, Xie has very high expectations for him, and his future is good. ”
"She is so smart, she must know how to carry the children of the Gu family without our advice. After all, she is the daughter of the Gu family, and she can only be better if the Gu family is good. The lord looks at the second daughter-in-law of our family right now, the daughter of Anyang Hou is all false, what about Anyang Hou? When I was old, my health was not good, and I hid at home with three disasters and two illnesses in the early years. The other daughters-in-law in our family are no worse than the second daughter-in-law. She is now embarrassed in the middle of the concubine, and it is not because of the cousin of her maternal uncle's family. The mother's family can stand up, so they are naturally more confident, and they even put up with her a little more on fair days. ”
"That's how you take care of the house?" Scholar Gu snorted coldly: "The second daughter-in-law is arrogant, it's you, who are mother-in-law, don't know how to restrain you, but when it comes to your mouth, you become proud." ”
Scholar Gu said this, quite unhappy to find fault, but Mrs. Gu still had a gentle smile and was not annoyed: "Master, which family of the Manchu Dynasty is not like this, besides, at the moment, it is the eldest daughter-in-law's housekeeper, and they are nothing, and the concubine is not a mother-in-law, right?" The second daughter-in-law is arrogant, and she is not in front of us, and her maiden cousin also respects you, my lord! The concubine just thinks that getting married is a good family, and it's not common for in-laws to help each other in the court! All in one. ”
"You know it's all good, you know it's all bad." Scholar Gu suddenly laughed: "You are a woman, you are short-sighted, and you are still not convinced." Xie Xiang and Li Xiang are openly tearing their faces now, the situation between the DPRK and China will be changeable in the future, who can stand and who will fall, can you clear it now? Li Xiang, but it's not yet the time when there is no way out. What is going on between King Yi and the fourth sister of the Xie family, others don't know, but you and I know that this family can't do it, and the daughter of the Li family is not allowed to be Princess Yi. King Xin and King Yi, who will be able to ascend to that position in the future, can you clear it? How do you know that it is not the Xie family that will suffer in the future. ”
"Are you sure that the master can be left alone?" Mrs. Gu calmly asked: "As an official in the court, who can get rid of it." ”
"It's true that you can't get rid of it," Senior Scholar Gu shook his head: "The water in the middle of the court is muddy, and it is impossible to be alone, unless we are the Duke of Anguo." Only the Anguo Mansion can do it alone, so you understand, if King Xin didn't attack the Li family so quickly, it didn't matter if this family business was done or not. Just like you, the ninth sister is smart and beautiful, this family business can't be done, and there are many good people. Even if I don't want her to marry Xie Fu, I can carefully choose a family outside of the three phases, and Wang Darao's grandson is also very good. ”
"It's just that right now, King Xin has already muddied this pool of water, we don't have time to hesitate, this pool of muddy water, it's not that you don't want to mess with it, you can not get it. The third child is still in Ningling and can't come back, I am not involved in the affairs of the six departments, and my two most promising students are currently in foreign office, so we are relatively weak in a few current dynasties, and if we don't have more chips at the moment, we are likely to be swallowed by this pool of water, so this opportunity must be seized. ”
Mrs. Gu stared at her husband for a long time, and after a long time, she sighed and nodded, as if compromised: "Okay." I know. It's just that I pity the ninth sister, after all, she is a granddaughter who grew up in front of my eyes, in fact, I don't want her to marry into a military general's family in my selfish heart. The generals of the Mu family in the Anguo Mansion are all going to fight outside all the year round, and they are lonely for a long time, and the future of the ninth sister is afraid that it will be difficult. ”
"You know that you feel sorry for the ninth sister," Senior Scholar Gu glanced at his wife, and said without giving face at all: "How can you not feel distressed if you change the sixth sister and the seventh sister?" I didn't know you were so partial? If you marry another of your own, you will be glad to see it come to pass. ”
Mrs. Gu was speechless for a while, her face was a little red, as if she was choked by Scholar Gu, and only after a long time did she say a sentence: "If you are a person, you are eccentric, there are so many grandchildren in the family, where can I see my aunt one by one, the parents of the ninth sister are not around, but they are often by my side, so I naturally favor her." ”
"Okay," Master Gu shook his head with a smile: "How many years have you been a husband and wife, where do you and I need to explain so much." You don't have to feel sorry for the matter of the ninth sister, listen to me. ”
"Then according to the old man," Gu Fuhuan didn't get entangled, and after being unwilling for a while, he quickly calmed down: "I'll send a post to the Anguo Mansion in the next few days." Alas! It's only been a few days, and the letter we sent to Ningling may not have arrived yet. ”
