There were no lights, no joy, just two big red happy words pasted in Gu Ling'er's house, put on the wedding dress, Qin Jixian lifted her red hijab, this is considered a ceremony, not even a guest.

Gu Ling'er sat on the kang covered with happy quilts, unable to recover for a long time, and finally realized that Qin Jixian hadn't even stayed to spend candles with her.

But when she came back to her senses and wanted to go to Qin Jixian, she found that she was under house arrest.

Yes, Gu Ling'er is under house arrest.

The two stout mothers-in-law were firmly guarding Gu Ling'er's door, and when they saw Gu Ling'er coming out, they immediately stopped her left and right.

"Princess, please come back, if you need anything, just tell the slave maid."

"What do you mean?" Gu Ling'er looked at the two mothers-in-law and always felt that something was not right.

"The prince has ordered, you are not as good as before, since you are already a princess, you must abide by the etiquette that the princess should observe, and you can't show your face everywhere like before, you had better stay in this courtyard and don't go out again." A mother-in-law said with disdain in her eyes.

"What?" Gu Ling'er didn't really understand what this mother-in-law meant, and she didn't want to talk nonsense with a mother-in-law here, so she just said impatiently: "You guys get out of the way for me, I'm going to find the prince." ”

Who knows, when the mother-in-law heard this, not only did she not get out of the way, but she was more determined to block her way, and reiterated again: "Please go back." ”

"I'm not going back, what's the matter?" Gu Ling'er was so angry that she stepped forward and pulled the two mothers-in-law, but the mother-in-law didn't have a soft hand, and directly pushed her neatly into the yard, and then closed the door and locked it.

Gu Ling'er fell to her back, looked at the closed courtyard door, and slapped the closed courtyard door when she got up.

"Let me out, I'm looking for Qin Jixian, I heard that there is no ......"

However, no matter how Gu Ling'er shouted, there was no movement outside, and Gu Ling'er, who was angry, turned around to look for something and wanted to climb the wall to get out, but as a result, after looking for a long time, she found that there was not even a table, chair and bench in the yard except for the warm kang she was sleeping on.

Gu Ling'er looked at the empty courtyard stupidly, not understanding what was going on.

Qin Jixian didn't want to marry her, he could not marry her, but he married her but locked her up, what does it mean?

At this time, Qin Jixian was at the side concubine in the backyard, eating together.

"The kid didn't mess with you." Qin Jixian chatted with the concubine while eating.

"He's still young, so he's not too noisy." The side concubine looked down at her bulging belly, and her eyes were full of soft light.

Qin Jixian looked at her gentle appearance, smiled and reached out and touched her belly, and his heart was extremely stable.

This concubine is a very ordinary woman, she has no outstanding appearance, no talent, and no prominent family affairs, the only advantage is that she will take whatever she gives, and she will not take the initiative if she doesn't give it to her.

In the past, he thought that this woman was too dull and too unsure of how to fight, but now he thinks that such a woman is still very good, she can recognize the reality, settle down, and will not delusionally get what she shouldn't have.

As for Gu Ling'er, all the days before getting married were the opportunities he deliberately left for her to leave at any time, since she didn't leave, let's stay in this backyard.

As soon as they became married, they were placed under house arrest, and the people in the house immediately understood Gu Ling'er's status, and they also clearly knew that their prince didn't have any thoughts about Gu Ling'er, and the food sent by the kitchen at the moment was simpler, and sometimes they even forgot to send food.

Gu Ling'er was miserable in the courtyard, and she didn't understand why Qin Jixian suddenly changed her attitude, obviously she was very good to her before.

However, no one gave her a response, and no one gave her an answer.

Gu Ling'er felt that this day was extremely difficult, while others felt that the days passed too quickly, almost in the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year's Eve, and two years passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past two years, there have been incidents in Yuhe County where the river almost overflowed the embankment, but because the embankment here is higher than other places, and the village dam has been repaired, nothing major has happened.

At the same time, in the past two years, Gu Xiu and Fu Yu have their first child, which is a delicate and soft little girl, who looks very similar to Fu Yu, and Fu Yu is happy like a silly father every day. And Qin Jixian's concubine also gave birth to a son, and Qin Jixian was also happy to ask the child to be crowned the son without saying a word. From beginning to end, only Gu Ling'er was confined in that courtyard, living a life like a few years, knowing nothing about things outside, and not even having anyone to talk to.

And this year, Shen Jingcheng has been in Yuhe County for three years, and it is time to return to Beijing to report on work, so during the Spring Festival of this year, the two can only go to the capital.

At this time, Xiao Youping, who has grown a tiger head and tiger brain, walks is running, jumping up and down every day, and when he heard that he was going to the capital this year, he immediately cheered happily.

On the fifteenth day of the lunar month, Shen Jingcheng handed over the affairs of the county government to Jiang Zhengshu and the chief bookkeeper, Gu Jin brought the necessary salutes, and the family of three embarked on the road to the capital.

After not going to the capital for three years, seeing the route to the capital again, Gu Jin and Shen Jingcheng found that there were some changes in many places.

And Xiao Youping, who has never seen the outside world, feels fresh when he sees everything, and rare to see everything, but he is also very sensible, unless he encounters something he particularly likes, he almost never asks for anything along the way. After all, most of the things are basically available in the shops in Yuhe County, and he doesn't think it's rare, and he finally came across something new, and he still feels as painful as digging up meat when he digs out silver.

Since he was sensible, he always listened to his father and mother thinking every day about where the shop was making money, where the business of the flat shop was not very good, and how much land the family needed to hire people to cultivate, and the money kept going out.

And Xiao Youping, who has no concept of these, feels that his father and mother are really hard, and his family is really having a hard time, so he has the habit of not buying things at a young age.

On the twenty-second day of the lunar month, Xiao Youping looked at the legendary streets of the capital, and his eyes were full of disappointment.

In his eyes, the streets here are wider than the towns on the road, the houses are higher, there are more people, and nothing else is really interesting.

In the courtyard of the capital, the subordinates had already cleaned up the house, Xiao Youping ran into the courtyard as soon as he got out of the car, Gu Jin looked at his happy appearance and hurriedly followed, and Shen Jingcheng followed unhurriedly after handing over the carriage.

After the family rested for a day, Shen Jingcheng took advantage of the day before the report, and first went to a few senior brothers to walk around, especially the two senior brothers who helped him repair the embankment, and on the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, Shen Jingcheng went to report like other officials who returned to Beijing to report on their work, and then waited for the summons of the old emperor after the year.

And just as I was waiting, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the door.
