Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Undercurrent

When Luo went to Songshou Yuan and came back, he sent someone to send the roster of the Zhuang family to Dongfu, and even asked the maid to bring a message to the past, so that Gu Mingzhu could just pick it, as long as it was satisfactory, he immediately sent the deed to Dongfu.

This is also what Old Madam Gu meant.

Luo stammered and told Gu Mingzhu's words to the old lady Gu, the old lady stopped chanting the Buddha's voice, the Buddha beads in her hand paused, and sneered: "The little lady who has not dried up is worried about this!" ”

She looked at Luo Che who lowered her head angrily: "In the past, you were also a shrewd person, how could you come from Mingzhu!" ”

Luo Shi said aggrievedly: "I never thought that Mingzhu would guard me like this, over the years, I have taken care of the Grange shop for her, and I have been in charge of the affairs of the East Mansion, I have never neglected at all, I don't know who she listened to at her instigation, and she actually made a fuss to get back the title deed......"

"If she wants you to give it to her?" Old Madam Gu hated iron and steel, "That's the Gu family's wealth, is it possible that the transaction will be in her hands and she will be defeated?" ”

"Look at her over the years, she has spent money and money indiscriminately, and spent most of the money in the house over there, how can she give these to her."

Mrs. Gu patted the case: "No matter who she listened to, it was not her turn to come to this house, and those grange shops were not allowed to be sent over!" She doesn't want the dealer to come into the house to serve, you give her the roster, let her choose, which one you like, you let people send the deed over, see how she can make trouble! ”

Luo Shi was busy, but said embarrassedly: "It's just that if she wants to ...... again"

The old lady snorted coldly: "You just have to tell her, since she is the wife of my Gu family, the food she eats is also my Gu family, even if it is a stitch and thread in the house over there, it is the Gu family's, and it is not her turn to interfere." ”

Luo nodded and remembered something again: "The Taishi Mansion just sent someone to send a post, saying that he was going to invite our mansion to the thanksgiving banquet of the five ladies." ”

If it was another family's post, Luo had already ordered someone to prepare a congratulatory gift, and when the time came, it would be the Guo family.

Old Madam Gu's face became even more ugly when she heard this, if it weren't for Gu Mingzhu, where would she form such a bond with the Taishi Mansion, there was no need to be so embarrassed!

She said coldly: "Whoever causes the trouble will be the one who will end it, and there is no need to tire about the reputation of the mansion!" ”

Gu Mingzhu listened to the maid's words, looked at the roster in front of her, and smiled slightly.

She flipped through the rosters and looked around: "Madame is really considerate, she can really be chosen by me." ”

"Let's do that." She pointed to a few names, and tossed them aside with some amusement.

The maidservant hurriedly stepped forward to write it down, and took out a post from her sleeve and sent it forward.

"Lady, this is a post sent by the Taishi Mansion, and the lady sent it to the maid."

Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows, took the post and looked at it, and sneered.

This is the Guo family's thanksgiving banquet post.

The fifth lady of the Guo family entered the palace as a good lady, although she was only a second-grade side concubine, it was a shame for the Guo family, but according to the rules, she had to set up a banquet to congratulate Tianen.

It's just that the gift of this side concubine is different from marrying the prince and concubine in the palace, the position is different, after all, the concubine is different, although you are a second-class lady in the East Palace, it is just a concubine, in all fairness, it is really not a happy event.

The Guo family didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but they actually sent a post to Dongfu, and they wanted to invite Gu Mingzhu to the banquet.

The maid was a little timid beside her, and said in a low voice: "Madame still has something to bring to the eldest lady, saying that there is some misunderstanding between our house and the Taishi Mansion at the Riqujiang banquet, and the Taishi Mansion has now specially sent a post, if you don't go, I'm afraid it will cause gossip......

Gu Mingzhu looked at the maidservant, her smile became colder and colder, and she said lightly: "Since Madame said so, I naturally can't help but go." ”

The maid gritted her teeth and said boldly: "The old lady also has an explanation, these days Erlangjun and the second lady are going to come to Chang'an from Qingzhou, the lady wants to stay in the house to do something, and the second lady and the third lady want to help the old lady copy the scriptures, so they can only ......"

Her voice became lower and lower: "It can only be the eldest lady who goes to the banquet by herself......"

That's a good idea! Gu Mingzhu's sneer deepened.

The maidservant girl was so cold by her cold gaze that she responded with a quick run, took the roster and retreated, and it seemed that she had to go out.

Mama Han looked at the post with concern: "Lady, the five ladies of the Taishi Mansion had other thoughts at the Qujiang banquet before, but now they want to invite you to the banquet, I'm afraid that I will ......"

Gu Mingzhu smiled and nodded: "Naturally, something is wrong." ”

According to the previous events, the second Mrs. Guo and the sisters of the Guo family were afraid that they would tear her apart and not be able to resolve their hatred, so they actually sent a post to her, it seems that this thanksgiving banquet is a Hongmen banquet.

Hearing her say this, Mama Han was so anxious that her face turned pale, and she hurriedly said, "Then, how can that be good?" Otherwise, the maid will go to the house over there and beg the lady to reply to this post. ”

Hearing Ah Bi talk about the Qujiang banquet before, she was already soft-handed and soft-footed, and now where would she dare to let Gu Mingzhu get into danger again.

Gu Mingzhu shook her head: "Since the old lady has spoken, I can't help but not go, I'm afraid that before the post is sent, they have already agreed to the Guo family." ”

I'm afraid that Xifu will also be happy to let her go to the banquet for them, after all, now that the Guo family and the Gu family have a holiday, they don't say it on the surface, but secretly they also hold grudges.

She said and smiled again: "That's it, since you can't push it, let's go and take a look." ”

She also wanted to see Guo Yuxiu being sent to the East Palace and starting a hellish life.

In the West Mansion, Luo's son was holding the roster brought back by the maidservant and looking at it carefully.

Li Shuangrui, Wang's mother-in-law, Qian Er...... The few people Gu Mingzhu ordered seemed to be irrelevant people, and they seemed to be just ordinary dealers on the roster, so it really didn't seem like they were intentional.

But she has been making trouble for the past few days and has spent so much effort, is it just to pick a few farmers to serve in the house?

Luo Shi was a little unconvinced, she felt more and more that Gu Mingzhu's mind was now that she couldn't even touch her, so she had to be more cautious and cautious.

She summoned her personal maidservant Ah Xia, pointed to the names and whispered: "Teach people to carefully investigate, what are the origins of these, where are they on errands, and what are their dealings with the mansion over there!" ”
