Chapter 184: Longtan Tiger's Lair (Second Update)

There is a happy event in the second room of the Guo family again, Guo Wuniang was sent to the palace for a good yuan for less than a few months, and her sister Guo Qi Niangzi has an engagement with Hu Erlang of Taichang Shaoqing Mansion, and she is about to make a small decision, which sounds like a good marriage.

It's just that many people were taken aback, after all, the second room and the fifth lady of the Guo family suffered such a big loss, and they should always think that they would let the seventh lady get married, and they could get back some face by marrying out in a beautiful way, but they never thought that they would decide on their relatives in such a hurry.

The Gu family's carriage stopped in front of the gate of the Taishi Mansion, and the Mao family opened the curtain and looked curiously at the joyful Taishi Mansion, turned his head and said to Gu Mingzhu: "It's just a small ceremony, it's really amazing that so many guests come to say hello." ”

Where has she ever seen such a thing, in Qingzhou, ordinary people only put on the table to invite relatives, friends and friends to be lively when they are just welcoming in person, and she didn't expect that Chang'an Guifu even Xiaoding was so lively.

Gu Mingzhu pursed her lips and smiled, and helped Abi's men to get out of the carriage: "The second aunt only came to Chang'an, I'm afraid I don't know the customs of Chang'an, that is, Xiaoding, giving dowry gifts, pressing boxes and welcoming people are all going to set up banquets, but giving dowry gifts and pressing boxes are coming from their own relatives, but Xiaoding and Qinying are going to have a big banquet." ”

Mao couldn't help but smack his tongue: "How much silver does this cost, it's really ......"

Gu Mingzhu didn't explain much to her, after all, she was a lady who had not been out of the cabinet, so it was not easy to say much.

It's just that she understands that the family affairs of the children in a house are often the top priority in the house, because it is related to the reproduction of the family and the family name.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as Guo Yuxiu's marriage, which has become a waste, and there are arrangements like Mrs. Gu and Luo's.

If the Gu family is at the mercy of Old Madam Gu and the Luo clan again, it will only be a matter of time before it declines. Gu Mingzhu sighed lightly in her heart, and took her maid to follow the Mao family, who was full of surprise and vigilance, to the Taishi Mansion.

Second Mrs. Guo was dressed in a green oil satin peony skirt, obviously standing in the early autumn sun, but she was still wearing a shawl, and she looked very rich, but her appearance was startled.

No one expected that after less than a few months, the originally plump and charming Second Mrs. Guo seemed to be a different person, her body was pinned under the loose skirt, her face was thin, her cheeks were shriveled and dull, and her eyes looked scary, but they were dull.

She held the handmaid's hand in front of the main hall to greet the guests, and when she saw the familiar lady, she could only pull the corners of her mouth, revealing a trace of an ugly smile, and the greetings were extremely stiff, if she could not still say a few words, the guests who came would treat her as if she was already seriously ill.

"Second lady, the Gu family of the Hussar General's Mansion has come, and they have already followed to the mansion." The little maid came to her and whispered back.

The Gu family is here!

These words were like sparks, igniting the already lifeless eyes of Second Lady Guo, and she straightened up and stared at the little maidservant: "Who is here?" ”

There are still people in the Gu family who dare to come, who is coming this time? General's wife Roche? Or is it the second lady Gu who has been praised by many people for her fame?

She has been recuperating in the mansion all these days, but she doesn't know about Gu Mingyue, she just thinks about the last time she looked back and came to the mansion boldly, or she used the method of pretending to be sick to avoid it, and this time she must not dare to come again.

The little maid snorted, looked at the second lady Guo timidly, and then said softly: "It is the second lady of the general's mansion who came with Mrs. Gu." ”

Gu Mingzhu!

Second Mrs. Guo's face stiffened on her face, she hadn't come back to her senses for a long time, she actually dared to come again!

"Xiuniang said when you will be in the house?" Second Mrs. Guo, who came back to her senses, opened her mouth to ask the maidservant.

The maidservant said softly: "Liangyuan said that she said that she would come out after inviting the queen of heaven, and she would go to the house when it was about time." ”

Second Mrs. Guo stretched out her hand to help the maidservant, and a smile slowly appeared on her face: "Okay, if Xiuniang knows that Gu Mingzhu dares to come to the mansion again, she will definitely be happy under her nose." ”

"She has suffered so many grievances, but I, a mother, can't do anything, I can only watch her uncomfortable, and now it can make her feel happy, and it can be regarded as making her breathe a sigh of relief."

Her face turned grim: "Let people watch the two Gu family people for me, and if Xiuniang has any orders, she will do it." ”

Gu Mingzhu and the Mao family didn't know that they had been calculated, and the Mao family walked all the way rarely: "This mansion looks even more magnificent than ours, look at this garden, I'm afraid that the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River is like this, it's really chic......"

Gu Mingzhu is not surprised, after all, Guo Taishi is much older than Gu Qing, he has already entered the office when he was Emperor Taizu, and he has been an official in the court for many years, and he has already established deep roots, and he is called Guo Banchao, which means that there are half of the officials in the Manchu Dynasty who are Guo Taishi's protΓ©gΓ©s, so the Guo family can always stand at the head of your mansion.

If it weren't for the last resort, Gu Mingzhu would not want to have a bad relationship with the Guo family, after all, offending such a powerful person with a solid foundation is really worth the loss, but what Gu Mingzhu did in the second room of the Guo family, Gu Mingzhu must not let go, even if he risked offending Guo Taishi, he did not hesitate to fight them to the end.

Just because of this life, she no longer wants to wronged herself, she just wants to live a happy life!

After just passing the corner of a corridor, Mao saw a figure standing by the flower pavilion not far away, dressed in a stone blue satin robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and a handsome face under the golden dragon crown, the person seemed to hear the footsteps of Gu Mingzhu and Mao walking over, and was looking back at this side, showing a smile to the two of them.

"It's not ...... His Royal Highness the Virtuous King? Mao had only seen Li Yu once, but he recognized it at a glance and said in surprise, "Even the prince will come to this mansion to congratulate?" ”

Gu Mingzhu looked at Li Yu, who had already turned around and walked this way, her face was a little gloomy, although she had already guessed that the Guo family's wedding banquet, King Xian and King Xian would inevitably come, but she didn't expect to meet Li Yu as soon as she arrived here, he looked like he had been waiting here for a long time, but he didn't know who he was waiting for?

She looked at the familiar appearance, sighed secretly in her heart, lowered her head and stopped looking at Li Yu, she really didn't want to be entangled with him in this life, but he seemed to be a different person, but he was very interested in her.

"Big lady, I haven't seen you for a long time, I can't imagine such a coincidence, and I met here again." Li Yu smiled and said to Gu Mingzhu, but his tone was very gentle, with a little indescribable ambiguity, which led to reverie.

Gu Mingzhu frowned, and bowed his knees respectfully: "His Royal Highness King Xian." ”

The Mao family beside her also bowed down, but when she looked up at the two of them, she was full of interest, in her opinion, this Royal Highness the Virtuous King is really unusual for Gu Mingzhu!
