Eating fruit cakes and delicacies and appreciating the flowers, smelling the fragrance of golden osmanthus flowers, the ladies also felt that this flower-viewing banquet was well arranged, and they laughed freely, after the old lady Gu had so many things in the mansion before, it was rare for her to have such a long face, and she talked to them with a smile, and later deliberately pushed Gu Mingyu out: "...... Speaking of their sisters, my favorite is Mingyu, who knows books and etiquette, and is filial and sensible, if she is not with her these days, my body is afraid that it will not be able to be so fast. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Gu Mingyu who was sitting beside Gu Mingzhu with a look of kindness and satisfaction.

Gu Mingzhu almost couldn't hold back her laughter, Old Madam Gu's ability to tell nonsense has become greater, and this kind of completely unrelated praise can also be spoken, it can be seen that in order to settle Gu Mingyu's family business, Old Madam Gu even let out her old face.

Her laughter attracted the attention of several ladies, and Liu's face changed, and he turned his head to look at Gu Mingzhu, playing a round game: "The county lord also thinks that what the old lady said is true." ”

Gu Mingzhu refused to give her this face, and looked at Old Madam Gu with a smile: "I think this flower-viewing banquet is very elegant and chic, it's really rare." ”

Before the smile on Liu's face, Gu Mingzhu nodded with a smile: "It's really hard second lady, the eldest lady is seriously ill, thanks to her taking care of the affairs of the house, even this flower-viewing banquet is arranged so properly, it's hard for her." ”

This sentence almost choked Mrs. Gu and the Liu family to death, this is obviously a nonsense, when was the matter in this mansion taken care of by the second lady, and this flower-viewing banquet was arranged by the Liu family herself, just to let the Duchess of Yanguo enter the mansion to see each other, but Gu Mingzhu said lightly, and this credit became the second lady's.

The most important thing is that her sentence is also an admission that the housewife in charge of this house is the second lady Mao, and the Liu family is even more embarrassed here.

But her words can't be refuted, after all, in front of so many ladies and ladies, the Gu family can't say that this mansion is run by the Liu family, nor can it be said that Mrs. Gu's two daughters-in-law refuse to believe it, and they hold the middle feed.

Old Madam Gu was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time, and it took a while to squeeze out a sentence from between her teeth: "Your second aunt is sick, and now she can't help in the house." ”

Gu Mingzhu blinked: "Sick?" But just now I went to Qingxue Courtyard, the second lady is fine, why don't you see you invited to the table. ”

Old Madam Gu was so angry that she could see that Gu Mingzhu was going to stir up the situation, she wanted to make the Gu family unhappy again, otherwise she would not take the Mao family to talk about things.

But in front of the surprised eyes of many ladies and ladies, she couldn't refute, let alone argue with Gu Mingzhu, so she could only glance at Liu: "The second lady is well?" Why didn't you tell me. ”

Liu Shi only felt that his face was purple and his heart was beating suddenly, and he couldn't say it with a depressed stomach, but he could only lean over and say: "It's the concubine, it's only when the second lady is still recuperating and doesn't dare to disturb it, so I slack off." ”

Gu Mingzhu glanced at her and smiled: "It's not too late for now, how can there be no housewife at this banquet." ”

The ladies at the banquet also thought it was true, although it was a banquet of the Gu family, because of the power of the Gu Mansion, they had to come, but after all, they felt rude, and there was no housewife to preside over the reception, but they let a concubine from a humble background help Zhang Luo, and everyone felt that their faces were not good-looking.

Although the Mao family is not from a famous family, after all, she is also the wife of an official family, and she is also the wife of the second room, so she is naturally a righteous lady in charge in comparison.

Old Madam Gu had no choice, so she could only endure her breath in her heart, gritted her teeth and ordered: "Why don't you hurry up and invite the second lady to come." ”

Liu Shi endured her sadness and tears, got up and bent her knees to confess, and personally went to Qingxue Courtyard to invite the second lady, her heart was cold, she had been in charge of the house for some time, with her ability, she originally thought that it would be difficult to shake it, even if Gu Qing came back, she was not afraid, but she didn't expect that with Gu Mingzhu's words, everything would come to naught.

I'm afraid that this mansion will still be handed over to the Mao family in the future.

It's just that, Gu Mingzhu still refused to give up, and said to Old Madam Gu with a smile: "The second lady is in good health, and the old lady can rest assured, and she doesn't have to work hard in everything." ”

"The old lady's health was not very good before, and it took a long time to get better, and now it is even more necessary to take care of it, and these things in the house are still handed over to the second lady to take care of, and they should also enjoy the blessings in peace."

She looked at Old Madam Gu with a smile and a concerned look.

Old Madam Gu trembled with anger, and she had to force a smile on her face, and her mouth trembled: "Thank you, county lord." ”

The most tormenting thing is this kind of anger that has been so angry that he has to force his smile to thank humanity with a smile.

Gu Mingzhu said idly: "The old lady is polite, this is also for the face of the house, you can't teach Aunt Ping to be in charge, others will make fun of the general's mansion for having no rules." ”

Old Madam Gu could only thank her once again, thanking Gu Mingzhu for her care.

When the Mao family came over, they chatted with the ladies for a while, and everyone at the banquet had their own thoughts, and the flower appreciation banquet that was originally arranged to see Gu Mingyu was also disturbed by Gu Mingzhu, and the Duchess of Yanguo could only look at the grandmother who was always by Gu Mingzhu's side, and the Liu family was also so cold that she didn't dare to come to the table again, and the old lady Gu was so angry that she could only hastily disperse the banquet.

Seeing the Duchess of Yan Guo leave with a sad face, Gu Mingyu's hand that had been holding the handkerchief tightly was loosened, but he whispered to Gu Mingzhu: "Big sister, what should I do now?" ”

Gu Mingzhu can't protect her all the time, this time Old Madam Gu and the Liu family failed to succeed, and they will definitely refuse to give up, if Gu Mingzhu leaves the house and returns to the palace, how can she get rid of their mercy at that time.

Gu Mingzhu smiled: "You can go back with peace of mind, I will arrange it." ”

Old Madam Gu has controlled the Gu family all these years, acting arbitrarily, for the sake of small profits in front of her, and even does not hesitate to take the family affairs of several of their sisters as a transaction, this was the case for Gu Mingzhu at the beginning, and now it is the same for Gu Mingyu, if she doesn't completely break her thoughts, the Gu family doesn't know what will be harmed.

Although Gu Mingzhu is now the lord of Lingling County, she was born in the Gu family after all, and in the eyes of others, she has always been inseparable from the Gu family.

She glanced back at Old Madam Gu's iron-blue face, and the Liu family, who was supporting Old Madam Gu with an uncomfortable face, smiled coldly, and turned around and walked out of the General's Mansion.
