Mrs. Cui and Gu Mingzhu who came out of the old lady's courtyard took their servants back to the inner courtyard, the flowers and plants in the courtyard in early winter withered, but there were bamboo bushes, pines and cypresses were verdant, and when they turned through the hall, they were rockeries and mountains, and the scenery was beautiful, but Mrs. Cui and Gu Mingzhu didn't want to see more, and they kept walking.

Gu Mingzhu thought about the marriage between Princess Anping and Cui Yi, and she was also happy for a while.

In fact, Cui Yi and Princess Anping's identity can be regarded as very commensurate, Cui Yi has a resolute temperament, although he is a child of a family, he is not frivolous, and his character is pure, and Princess Anping is innocent and kind-hearted, if he can make a pair, it is indeed a good thing.

What's more, now that the long house has handed over the position of the son, and no longer cares about court affairs, the days after will not be too embarrassing and complicated, Mrs. Cui is cold and warm-hearted, and the old lady treats people generously, which is a good destination for Princess Anping, who has experienced many changes.

Mrs. Cui didn't think about this, she had been walking in front of Gu Mingzhu silently, and seeing that she was about to reach the courtyard, she suddenly stopped: "You come in with me, I still have something to say to you." ”

Gu Mingzhu was not surprised, thinking that the eldest lady was not worried about Cui Yi's marriage, and wanted to ask Gu Mingzhu about Princess Anping.

It's just that she didn't expect that when she entered the main room and sat down, Mrs. Cui didn't mention Cui Yi's matter a word, but muttered for a long time, and said, "I want A-Ning to follow you." ”

Gu Mingzhu was startled and looked at Mrs. Cui: "This ...... A-Ning is the lady of the Cui family. ”

is still the daughter of the Cui family, with a noble status, Cui Lin left the Cui family this time to give up the identity of the Cui family, and he can no longer act as Cui Wulang in the future, if Cui Ning follows them, wouldn't he also give up the background of the family lady?

For the children of the family, their background is almost as important as their lives, but Mrs. Cui asked Cui Ning to go with them.

Mrs. Cui did not have the indifference of the past, and smiled bitterly: "The family is no longer what it used to be, now all the families have moved to Chang'an, and the children are all going to join the office, and it won't take long to think about it, and the lintel of this family is no longer so important." ”

"What's more, in this way, the family is even more chaotic, fighting openly and secretly for the sake of interests, rather than letting A-Ning marry someone else's family as an exchange of interests, it is better to let her go with you, and I am also relieved to be by your side."

Gu Mingzhu didn't expect Mrs. Cui to be so sure of her, and she didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only whisper: "The A family values me so much, I really dare not take it seriously, but after A Ning, ......."

She is just a sister-in-law, where can she afford such a thing, her grandmother and both parents are here, how can she be filial piety in front of her, and then find a good marriage.

Mrs. Cui sighed, pondered for a while, and finally said: "At this time, I won't hide it from you, the Cui family is now on an adventure, although the family looks infinitely beautiful, but it has long been full of staleness, and there is only one way to enter the court if you want to protect it, but the court is actually simple." ”

"The old lady and the clan elder discussed for a long time, and finally decided to divide the branch into two places, three rooms and one vein into the court, Erlang is the son of the sect, and the other children are in the office, and the long room and one vein are in the Hui clan, but it is not that they no longer care about the affairs of the clan."

"The long house is a long house after all, how can it be possible to stay out of the matter safely, and when the New Year turns, I am afraid that the clan will have to set a marriage for A-Ning, either a powerful person or a family." Mrs. Cui has completely let down her guard, just a helpless mother, "For the clan, every marriage is valuable, but it is not a good place for A-Ning." ”

She lowered her eyes tiredly: "If you look at the second and third rooms, you should know that the women of the family are not so easy." ”

When Zheng Yuan first married in, the scenery was infinite, and the second lady boasted everywhere, and later the Zheng family was powerful, and she dared to seek the position of the son of Cui Wei, but as soon as the Zheng family fell, she couldn't even cope with the two aunts, so she could only let people bully her, not to mention the already declining families of the Xie family and the Wang family, the Xie family was obviously the eldest young lady, but she was cowardly and cowardly and did not dare to come forward in everything, all because of related interests.

Gu Mingzhu understood what Mrs. Cui meant, and also understood her painstaking efforts, but she still said worriedly: "It's just that the old lady and the clan ......."

I'm afraid that the clan won't agree easily.

Mrs. Cui raised her head: "This is what I mean, and it is also what the old lady and your father-in-law mean, even if there is anything in the clan, we can bear it, I have already listened to Qilang's marriage, A-Ning is a lady, it should be up to us to decide." ”

Speaking of this, Gu Mingzhu didn't have too many worries, she smiled and said, "This is a big deal, let me go back and discuss it with Lang Jun, and then talk back to Ah Jia." ”

Mrs. Cui nodded, she didn't expect Gu Mingzhu to agree, after all, it was about Cui Ning's life, if Gu Mingzhu agreed so casually, she wouldn't be at ease, not to mention that her daughter-in-law wanted to discuss it with her son when she encountered something, which was a good thing.

She also smiled: "Okay." ”

After a few more words with Gu Mingzhu, she suddenly remembered something and said, "Leave Boling in a while, and the people in your courtyard have all been arranged?" What to bring with you and what to keep, if not enough, I will have someone pick some and send them over. When she mentioned Cui Lin's departure, it was difficult to hide her sadness after all, but she forced a smile and didn't mention it much.

Gu Mingzhu said with a smile: "There are many people in the courtyard, I'm afraid that I can't bring them all, or I still have to leave a few, but these are all those who served in front of Lang Jun in the old years, I just entered the door not long ago, and I really don't know who to pick and who to keep." ”

She didn't hide it in front of Mrs. Cui, and said generously that she didn't know, it was better than pretending to understand if she didn't understand.

Sure enough, Mrs. Cui's face was even kinder, and she said with a smile: "Wulang is not in Boling all the year round, it's not surprising if you don't know, tomorrow I will ask Mama Chen to help you pick people, after all, you have to be smart and obedient, if there are those who are old, it is better to let them out, and it can be regarded as fulfilling them." ”

Gu Mingzhu responded with a smile: "Then thank you Ah Jia, Mama Lao Chen helped me." ”

After returning to the courtyard, Gu Mingzhu asked Mama Gao to come over, and asked her to order how many people in the yard should be released when they are old, and let her make a list, although she invited Mama Chen to help pick people, but as the housemother, she can't know anything.

Mama Gao responded, but she didn't procrastinate, and soon after holding the lamp, she sent the list, and there were a lot of people on it, Abi Xiaokui, and Hongluan Purple Mandarin Fragrance A few big maids were impressive, and they all reached the age of being released from the house.

This made Gu Mingzhu difficult, how should this be.
