In the west chamber, Jiang Zhiming was packing his luggage back to the Hou Mansion.

Tao has already called someone to hand over the news, saying that Jiang Zhiming should go back as soon as possible, Jiang Huarong's marriage is in the way, if he, the person who is the elder brother, is not present, then Jiang Huarong will be looked down upon by his mother-in-law's family if he marries into his mother-in-law's family.

Although Jiang Zhiming made an appointment with Gu Yutang to send her back to Chengjiang, for Jiang Huarong's marriage, he had to take a step ahead of them and leave Pengpu. He went back early, and he could also discuss his marriage with Gu Yutang with Tao, and probe Tao's tone.

Jiang Zhiming said to the stone beside him while cleaning up the calligraphy and paintings on the bookcase.

"Stone, after Ah Liang and I return to the Hou Mansion, the Gu family girl will be protected by you. There is that Mu Xiao County Lord in the house, and that Mu Xiao County Lord has hated the Gu family girl, I am worried that after I leave, no one will protect the Gu family girl, and the Gu family girl will be bullied by her. ”

Jiang Zhiming returned to the Hou Mansion this time, and he did not plan to bring stones. Gu Yutang had no one around him to protect him, he was really not at ease, so he planned to leave the stone and let him protect Gu Yutang in secret, so that Gu Yutang would not be calculated and bullied by others.

"The stones have all the words that Childe told me. After the prince returns to the Hou Mansion, the stone must secretly protect the Gu family girl and will not let others bully her. After talking about the stone, he looked up at Jiang Zhiming in front of him, but he didn't know what to say.

Looking at the stone as if he wanted to speak and stopped, Jiang Zhiming thought that he had something important to say to him, so he said, "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't hide it." ”

Listening to his son-in-law say this, the stone dared to say.

"Childe, in fact, to say something bold, you should take the Gu family girl back to the Hou Mansion.

Shi has already heard Ah Liang say, the second girl of the original family of the Earl of Zhongqin has always been in love with the son, and when the wife went to the street a few days ago, the eldest lady of the original took the wife and said a good conversation, talking about the marriage between the son and the second girl of the original family. ”

Jiang Zhiming also knew what the stone said. The second girl of the original family of the Earl of Zhongqin grew up with him and had some friendship with him, but then somehow, she fell in love with him and was determined to marry into the Hou Mansion.

It's a pity that the Tao family looks down on the original family of Count Zhongqin, the original family is a down-and-out family, and there is no grace left by the ancestors, and the things in it are long gone.

The eldest lady of the original family came to the door a few times, but Tao just refused to let go, and Tao did not agree, even if the original family had a heart, it would not be successful.

Then I don't know what's going on?

The eldest lady of the original family squatted in front of the mansion for three days and two times, if she saw the carriage of the Dingwu Hou Mansion, or saw the Tao family going out, she would come up and chat a few words, and every time she talked about the marriage between the second girl of the original family and Jiang Zhiming.

Jiang Zhiming only pretended to be Gu Yutang alone in his heart, where could he tolerate the second girl of the original family? And he and the second girl of the original family have not socialized for many years, how does he know if she is beautiful or ugly now?

Jiang Zhiming continued to sort out the clothes in his hand, and replied: "I have nothing to do with the second girl of the original family, and I think my mother will not go against my will and set my marriage with the second girl of the original family." ”

Looking at Jiang Zhiming's disapproving look, Shi hurriedly said.

"Childe, Shi listened to the meaning of the girl who came down from the Hou Mansion, and the second girl of the original family said that she would not marry if she was not a son in this life, even if she married to the Hou Mansion as a concubine, she would marry the child!

No matter how the original family says it, it is the Earl's Mansion, and the girl of their family marries into the Hou Mansion as a concubine, so the son's head lady must be the daughter of a famous family, otherwise she will not be able to suppress the second girl of the original family. ”

The second girl of the original family has been infatuated with Jiang Zhiming for a long time, in order to be able to marry the Hou Mansion, even if she marries Jiang Zhiming as a concubine, it is not a fuss.

But he Jiang Zhiming only wants to marry one woman in this life, that is Gu Yutang, his heart has been filled with Gu Yutang, where can he tolerate other people?

He didn't want to live up to the infatuation of the second girl of the original family, and thought that his mother should promise him and Gu Yutang's marriage, so he could only go back to the house as soon as possible and discuss these many things with his mother.

"Stone, whether my mother agrees with me marrying Gu Yutang or not, I will marry her back. I only pretend to be her alone in my heart, and I can't tolerate anyone else, as for the second girl of the original family, after I return to the Hou Mansion, I will explain it to her. Never let her want to marry into the Hou Mansion. ”

Seeing that his brother said so, the stone didn't have to say anything more, so he retreated, leaving Jiang Zhiming alone in the house to clean up his things.

In the hall, before going to bed, Lin specially instructed Mama Liang to invite Gu Yutang over, planning to say a few words to her.

Gu Yutang sat on the golden silk soft pillow beside Lin, peeling the sugar oranges sent from the small kitchen, while listening to Lin's teachings.

"Sister Tang, I heard that the Jiang family brother is going back to the Hou Mansion, why don't you want to meet him and say a few thoughtful words?"

Lin retreated from the maids who were waiting in the house, leaving only Ah Hua brought by Gu Yutang and Mama Liang who was waiting beside her.

Seeing Gu Yutang peeling the orange in his hand, he didn't reply to Lin's words for a long time. Ah Hua looked anxious, for fear that Gu Yutang would anger the Lin family, so he hurriedly said a few words for her.

"Old lady, the girl ate too many melon seeds a few days ago and hurt her throat, so she didn't reply to the old lady's words. These days, the son of the Jiang family has not come to look for the girl, and the girl has not gone to look for the son of the Jiang family, and the two have been frozen like this for a few days. ”

Listening to Ah Hua and Gu Yutang say so much, Lin's face gradually became difficult to look at.

"Silly girl, he didn't come to you, can't you go to him? Do you know that a few days ago, the Jiang family brother came to my side to look for you, saying that every time I went to the East Chamber, I wanted to see you, and I asked you to push you under various excuses. Thinking that you would come to my side for dinner, I came over, but I didn't find you, and walked out dejectedly. ”

Without waiting for Gu Yutang to speak, Ah Hua immediately explained: "Old lady, there is no matter. However, a few days ago, the girl was reluctant to see the son of the Jiang family, so she didn't see the son of the Jiang family for a few days, so it should be fine. ”

"How can it be okay? Ah Hua, as a close servant of the girl, why don't you persuade the girl? Sister Tang closed the door again and again and saw the Jiang family's brother, and sooner or later there would be an estrangement. ”

Lin seemed to be a little annoyed, and slapped Gao Ji on the head.

Seeing this, Mama Liang said a few words for Gu Yutang while following the Lin family's anger.

"Don't be angry, old lady, the third girl is still a child after all, where did she understand so much? Children are not sensible, and it is common for them not to be angry, so don't mix it with your old people. ”

Mama Liang said as she glanced at Gu Yutang a few times.

Gu Yutang got Mama Liang's signal, hurriedly explained a few words for herself, and replied.

"Grandmother, I don't deliberately close my door these days. I just want to deliberately chill him for a few days, so that he can read my goodness. If we can see each other day and night, all the time, then sooner or later there will be a rift between each other.

I don't want to have a dislike with him, so this is the only way, I didn't let Zhiming worry, but let your old man worry about it, it's my granddaughter's fault. ”
