Chapter 700: Jealousy

What happened outside Songhe Hall soon reached Xu's ears.

At that time, Xu was leaning crookedly on the soft couch and closing his eyes to recuperate, and there was no reaction to hearing these things, so Pan Xia didn't dare to say any more, and only stood quietly with his head down.

After a while, I heard Xu Shi say: "Let them go." ”

The voice is faint, and the mood is not obvious.

Pan Xia felt that she was getting more and more unable to figure out Xu's thoughts, so she had to look at Mama Xu with her eyes, and saw Mama Xu shaking her head at her, Pan Xia bit her lip, and then she retreated.

After Panxia left, Mama Xu picked up the beauty hammer, stood behind Xu and knocked Xu on the shoulder, knocking and persuading: "Don't worry about the old lady, the eldest lady has been silent for a while, although the girl's family is not good to go out often, but it is not so much to always be bored in the room, the eldest lady will be fifteen years old, and it is time to see the family affairs, this matter still needs you to take the palm, the second lady's family affairs are afraid that they will not drag on for too long, how can there be a sister to marry in front of the sister, not to mention that the eldest lady is the eldest ......"

Xu Shi listened to Mama Xu's words, sighed slightly, and his face seemed to be a little tired, "I don't know what you said, it's just this girl's family matter, I wasn't worried about it before, but now it's ......"

What's going on now, Xu didn't say it explicitly, but Mama Xu actually understood.

Today is different from the past, Gu Ningwei's reputation has been damaged, and it is no longer the eldest lady of the Yongning Houfu who everyone raises her thumbs up and praises when she mentions it, she was not in a hurry about the marriage of this eldest lady, because the Xu family had her own plans, but she didn't think about it, and something like that happened later, but it disrupted the Xu family's plans.

At first, when An Sheng was married, firstly, because the Queen Mother gave him a marriage, he couldn't refuse, and secondly, everyone felt that An Sheng didn't know if he could live for a long time, but now looking at it, the family affair has been decided for so long, but An Sheng is still alive and well, although there are still small problems, but there is no sign of being killed, Xu is a little anxious.

Mama Xu is right, there is no reason for a sister to marry in front of her sister.

Therefore, Gu Ningwei's marriage really can't be delayed.

The only thing that the Xu clan is worried about now is the Fang clan's side.

The Fang family spoils Gu Ningwei's daughter, Xu doesn't know, if the Xu family decides on Gu Ningwei's family affairs, it is difficult to guarantee that the Fang family will not lose his temper.

Of course, even if the Fang family made trouble, the Xu family was naturally not afraid of her, but she was always worried that this matter would spread out, causing outsiders to see the joke and losing the face of the Hou Mansion.

In the Xu family's heart, there is nothing that can be more important than the face of the Hou Mansion.

The two Gu Lin brothers are both officials in the court, although the Xu family is not a deep housewoman, but in Beijing for many years, under the influence of hearing and seeing, they also understand the importance of being an official and the official reputation, so they naturally don't want to affect the official reputation of the two Gu Lin brothers because of family affairs, and then affect the future.

That's the most important thing.

Whether the Yongning Hou Mansion is prosperous or not depends mainly on the two Gu Lin brothers.

"Think about it again, if it's cold today, you help me pay attention to it, detain them a little, tell them to go out less, and they won't be able to make any trouble, and after a while, they will start to be busy with the New Year's affairs, and when the time comes, they will be too busy to make waves."

Since Xu said this, Mama Xu naturally would not persuade again, and when she heard the words, she responded respectfully and said no more.

......

In the blink of an eye, it was three days later.

On this day, after An Sheng went to Xu's place early to say good morning, he told Xu that he was going to go out to the Wenguo Mansion for a banquet.

Xie Wanrong held a banquet this time, and invited all the ladies with heads and faces in Kyoto, An Sheng was able to participate in such a banquet, Xu was naturally happy, so he responded with a smile, and asked Pan Xia to open his own private treasury, subsidize An Sheng's some silver, and let her go out.

Of course, Xu's move attracted a lot of jealous eyes for An Sheng.

But that's not all.

It turned out that not only the Xu family attached great importance to this banquet, but even the Fang family also attached great importance to it, and a few days ago he asked the Xu family for instructions, dialed the best carriage in the house, and asked An Sheng to sit and go to the banquet.

The Xu family was afraid that An Sheng would lose the dignity of the Yongning Marquis Mansion in front of a group of young ladies, so he agreed when he heard this.

Everyone in the house said that An Sheng was lucky, not only found a good mother-in-law, but also had to be valued by the Xu family and the Fang family, only An Sheng himself knew what these people had in private.

However, they are cautious, and she has her own arrangements, so she has the right to do nothing.

But people who don't know secretly say a lot of sour things, but it's nothing more than envy and jealousy.

Gu Ningwei hated it since she knew that Xie Wanrong had handed over the post to An Sheng.

But at that time, after all, I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, and now when I saw An Sheng's big battle, I immediately became angry.

It is said that this post should have been hers, she is the serious Miss Yan of the Yongning Hou Mansion, An Sheng is a concubine, and she doesn't even have a foreign family to support, and her biological mother is still such an indecent person, but she is pressed on her head, how can she not be depressed?

What does An Sheng rely on? It's not because I found a good mother-in-law!

Originally, she also had an excellent family affair, but she blamed Xie Wanrong for killing her halfway and robbing her of her family affair!

Thinking of Xie Wanrong, Gu Ningwei's unwillingness and depression in her heart became even stronger.

Seeing that the children's faces were different, Fang could probably guess what was going on, but in front of so many people, it was not easy to persuade her openly, so he could only secretly pat his daughter's hand and give her a look again, telling her to calm down.

Gu Ningwei originally wanted to have a seizure, but when she was reminded by the Fang family, she thought that this was Xu's place, and she couldn't help but think of the Xu family's punishments for her in the past, and she was scared for a while, and most of her anger disappeared, but it stopped.

Seeing that Gu Ningwei was suddenly like a deflated eggplant that had lost water, and wilted, he couldn't help but secretly say that it was a pity.

Originally, I thought that there would be a good show to watch, but now it seems that I can't watch it.

Shen Shi didn't seem to see the sharp edge in this room, lowered his eyes and drank tea quietly, looking like he didn't care about himself.

Gu Anya stood behind Gu Ningwei, quiet and almost without much presence, but only she knew what kind of twisted arc the fingers she hid in her sleeves were pinched at this moment.

An Sheng went to the Wenguo Mansion for a banquet, and I don't know if he will see Wen Tao......

Xu sat on the top, taking in everyone's reactions, and couldn't help but snort softly in his heart, but he didn't say much, only raised his hand behind him, Pan Xia saw this, and hurriedly put the tea cup into Xu's hand, and then retreated.

Xu took the teacup, gently lifted the lid of the cup, blew away the foam on it, took a sip slowly, and then closed the lid again, letting the blue color in the cup float and sink on its own.
