Gu Yao pursed the corners of her mouth, slowly knelt in front of Old Madam Gu's bed, held Old Madam Gu's hand, and said:

"There is one thing that has always been on my mind, and today I implore my grandmother...... Give my father another chance! ”

Old Madam Gu's cloudy eyes lit up a little, "Say it." ”

"My third brother and I will be filial to our father, and we have never disliked my father. It's just that I hope my father can live freely. ”

Gu Yao picked out the key points of what he had said to the Li family again.

"Grandmother also knows that my sisters misunderstand their father a lot, and even target their father everywhere, although there are reasons why they are too paranoid, but it is difficult for them to trust their father's behavior in the past."

"Let the fourth child leave the capital?"

Old Madam Gu was really reluctant, "Yao girl, I don't know how many years I can live, and I don't want the fourth child to be by my side before I die." ”

"You can arrange for my father to go to Wancheng, and it only takes an hour to ride a horse from Wancheng to the capital. Wancheng is close, and once the father has a mistake, the eldest uncle can also help. ”

"When it comes to embezzling his wife's dowry, my father always has to go out and hide."

When Mrs. Gu heard this, tears flowed down again, "Wronged, wronged." ”

"You get up first, I'll make a good calculation of this matter with your uncle, I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm afraid that he won't be able to endure hardship, but will make Wancheng turbulent."

"Grandmother, you should trust your father too."

Gu Yao got up, if the old lady refused, she would go to ask Lu Zheng for help, and always let Gu Siye avoid the storm of public opinion.

"Old lady, the English duchess has arrived."

“……”

Old Madam Gu struggled to get up and said to Gu Yao: "You call Mother Li in, go and send a message to your eldest aunt, and ask her to come forward to entertain the British Duchess first." ”

Gu Yao nodded and turned to leave.

When Mother Li came in, she saw the old lady in a daze, and asked softly, "The old slave serves you to freshen up?" ”

"The sixth girl told me that I should give the fourth child a chance, donate a prisoner, and seek a county submission for the fourth child, I ...... Have you done something wrong all these years? ”

Old Madam Gu pressed her forehead, "I spoil the fourth child too much, I follow him too much, but no sixth girl can see it." ”

Mother Li said: "The temper of the fourth master may not be restrained, you are right, old lady, of course, it is not wrong for the sixth lady to be good for the fourth master, but the old slave thinks that the fourth master is always like this...... I'm afraid that I will be calculated, let Miss Six and Aunt Li go to office with Gu Siye, with Miss Six here, if the Fourth Master is just a county submission, there shouldn't be too much chaos. ”

Old Madam Gu said, "Let a concubine...... Anyway, even if I want Wang to go, Wang doesn't bother to be the county lady, and the wife of the same group of petty officials is together. ”

"They don't talk to her about poetry, about piano and tea ceremonies."

Old Madam Gu cleaned her face with cold water, and suddenly felt a lot more energetic, "The sixth girl has a saying that is right, it's good to hide out, so as not to be affected by any girl again." ”

In the living room, the British duchess is dressed in formal attire and wears a pearl and phoenix hairpin on her head, highlighting the style of the duchess of her country.

She looked at the Gu family's furnishings with a proud face, since the old marquis of the Gu family passed away, some things that could only be furnished in the mansion of the Marquis of Xun have been replaced.

Replaced with something more elegant.

The British duchess has not stepped into the Gu family for many years, and after a careful observation, the wealth of the Gu family is still okay, but it is not as grand as when it was still the Hou Mansion before.

Today, Mrs. Shizi did not come with her, she brought her two most important daughters-in-law.

The two of them accompanied her to laugh, and they looked down on the Gu family during their conversation.

The Ouyang family, who was already standing at the door, had a very ugly face, and when he heard what they meant, it was as if the Gu family had become a broken household.

"Auntie, when the uncle enters the cabinet, they will have a different face. It's not worth being angry with them, and they're not worth having a deep friendship. ”

Ouyang admired Gu Yao's broadness, nodded and said, "No wonder the old lady picked you." ”

Even she can't stand the 'contempt', but Gu Yao sees it very lightly, and she is not shocked, no wonder her husband always talks about it, no matter who Yao Ya marries in the future, she will live a prosperous life.

Gu Qing never thought that Lu Zheng would marry Gu Yao.

"I've seen the Duchess of England."

Ouyang entered the door and chuckled: "What kind of wind is it today, you are here?" Usually you just sent someone to pick up the second girl, but today you are coming to pick her up in person? ”

The British duchess owes her body, after all, the Ouyang family also has an edict on her head, and she intends to squeeze out a little kindness:

"I heard Sister Shan say that the Gu family has already started to prepare for the sacrifice, and I happen to have something to discuss with you, so I will take a look by the way...... Look at my hard-working daughter. ”

The British duchess wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, but her cold gaze always fell on Gu Yao, who had low eyebrows.

Mingyan's appearance was too eye-catching, and at the Bofu banquet, Gu Yao was hit by the jade pendant thrown by Lu Zheng casually.

Now there are faint signs of reversal in the capital, and suddenly there is more criticism of Huang Can and Miss Wang, and some people have begun to sympathize with Gu Yao.

Of course, there is the effect of Lu Zheng's words, but it is more ...... Suddenly, there were many cases in the capital where a man was about to marry him after saving him.

Every woman opened and closed her mouth and said that she had learned from Miss Wang.

What's more, in the Qinglou, many singers and famous prostitutes sing the lingering love poems written by Miss Wang.

attracted the famous ladies who were originally quite fond of Miss Wang's talents, and they no longer said that she had learned well.

There are also many children of Xungui who ransom famous prostitutes from the Qinglou, saying that they went to the house because of infatuation.

If the board doesn't hit herself, the famous lady will never know the pain!

Gu Yao helped Ouyang to sit down and saluted, "When I returned to England, the Duchess knew that the first lady's sacrifice had been prepared, and the second sister would look at it first, she didn't have any objections, just waited for the day of the sacrifice." ”

"Are you Gu Yao?"

The British duchess's eyes flashed with envy, how good would it be if her granddaughter could be smashed by Lu Zheng?

This is more glorious than Gu Shan going to the palace to be the companion of the six princesses.

The Gu family is also stupid, why not take this opportunity to publicize it?

As long as you can have a relationship with the crown marquis, do you still care about a daughter?

Isn't it over if you send it to Lu Houye?

Even if Gu Yao is not willing to be a concubine, Old Madam Gu still can't hold a concubine?

If she...... Not to mention the granddaughter of the concubine, it is not impossible to be the granddaughter.

Ouyang said: "It's the sixth girl in our house, she is a sensible and capable person, and she has helped me do a lot of things in the past few days, I am afraid that you will ask about the ceremony, so I specially called her." ”

"Grandmother, I'm here."

Before Gu Shanren arrived, the crisp laughter had already entered the house.

She was wearing a red peony gown, hanging an emerald gold collar, and her head was full of pearls, which was very noble.

Her face, which was already like a silver moon, became more and more wealthy.

She was full of pride and pride.

Like a flower butterfly flew into the house and pounced in front of the British duchess, "Grandmother." ”
