"Aunt Ann's grandmother is not in good health now, and she may ...... at any time If you don't marry now, I'm afraid it will take another three years before you can get married again. ”

"I see...... pearl suddenly realized.

In the Eastern Qi Dynasty, if an old man dies in a big family, the children of the clan must keep filial piety for him for three years before they can talk about marriage.

It took a lot of effort for my aunt and grandmother to marry Sister Yijing out in time at this time, and now the power of General An's Mansion is getting worse day by day, if you wait for another three years, it is difficult to guarantee that the marriage contract will not change.

After all, Sister Yijing's fiancé is not an ordinary person, but he is a little marquis who is going to inherit the fief without accident, and he is married!

Although the reputation of the General's Mansion will be damaged if you marry now, the reputation of the General's Mansion is no longer good, and no matter how damaged it is, it will not be damaged, and Sister Yu Yijing's future will indeed be beneficial and harmless.

And...... This is the only way to get Sister Yijing to get rid of General An and Aunt Yu now.

Gu Chuyue had a hunch in her heart that after Sister Yijing got married, the downhill road of the General's Mansion would officially beg.

Married......

For the first time, she felt that the word "marriage" was so close to her.

Fortunately, the original owner had returned the doll without authorization, but fortunately she is not yet thirteen years old, so she doesn't have to think about it for the time being.

Wait a minute!

Gu Chuyue felt as if she had forgotten something......

"Pearl, I don't think I've counted the marriage contract with that Yan family concubine now......" she asked cautiously.

"This, although Miss swore in public to withdraw from the marriage, but in fact, it was only verbal, and it didn't count, after all, Miss's Geng post was still in the young master of the Yan family." Pearl replied truthfully.

"Geng sticker?"

Gu Chuyue was taken aback, how could she forget about this.

In Dongqi, if the two families intend to get married, they will exchange the Geng stickers of both men and women as tokens, so as long as the men and women have not returned the Geng stickers, the marriage contract will still be counted.

"So, the Geng sticker of the Yan family's concubine is still in my hand?"

"Of course, Miss, you never let others touch that thing, and even Madame wanted to go over back then, but you refused, saying that you would keep it personally."

"That'...... So when will I officially withdraw from this marriage, I remember that I seem to have written a letter of divorce before, right? ”

On what it's like to suddenly find out that you have a fiancé who hasn't quit......

Gu Chuyue was glad that she didn't have to marry so early, but suddenly a fiancé who was not dismissed suddenly appeared, isn't this disturbing?

"Miss did write a letter of divorce, but at that time, the young master of the Yan family had already left the capital, and no one accepted it if you wrote it." Pearl said as she cleaned up.

This marriage is equivalent to only half of the withdrawal, and the oral covenant has been made but the Geng post has not been returned.

Gu Chuyue hurriedly found the Geng sticker, it was a red booklet, with gold characters on the outside, and when you opened the homepage, there were three words-

Words and hearsay.

She smiled dumbly: "This name is really ambitious." ”

"Why did Miss say that?" Pearl was puzzled.

"Hearing one and knowing ten, touching the bypass, 'How dare you look back?' Hui also heard one to know ten, and gave to also smell one to know two', 'lead and extend, touch the class and grow, the world's ability to complete'. ”

After speaking, Gu Chuyue sighed: "A concubine dares to give such a name, no wonder Mrs. Yan can't tolerate him." ”

Pearl didn't understand half a word in the clouds, and Ah Li, who had just come in to deliver hot water, also sighed: "Miss's speech is really getting more and more profound now." ”

Gu Chuyue smiled and arched her nose at them.

"Pearl, tomorrow Daddy can use the court?" If she remembers correctly, tomorrow is the rest day of the officials of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, and there is no need to enter the palace without any important matter and no summons.

"Tomorrow is a day of rest, and the master doesn't have to go to court."

"Daddy, is he sleeping in the Jade Pavilion tonight?"

Gu Chuyue had been sitting on the futon for a long time, her legs and feet were numb, and Pearl saw it and hurriedly helped the young lady up, "The slave maid heard that the master has been busy with official business recently, and he has been resting in the study for several days in a row. ”

"Where's Aunt Chan?" Gu Chuyue looked in the mirror and removed a pair of beads on his head.

"When the slave maid just went to deliver candied fruit to the second lady, I saw that the light in the lady's house was still on, and I heard Sister Fu Hui say that it was about to be the day of the autumn harvest, and several landowners had already handed over the account books, and the lady was tired of many accounts to read."

"It's really hard for Aunt Chan to read the account book so late."

Gu Chuyue looked at herself in the mirror and said softly.

Following.

After Gu Chuyue dressed up, she went straight to the big study.

Gu Mingyuan sat in the position of a scholar in the palace, although part of the reason was because of the influence of the old bachelor in the court and the help of the old lady, but also partly because of his talent, although he was born noble, he was diligent and hardworking.

In the first year, he applied for the imperial examination and was the top of the list, and he walked in the style of honest and honest civil officials, the back house was clean, and there were no rumors, and his image was quite well received, and he was trusted by the emperor.

And throughout the ages, the most obvious manifestation of His Majesty's favor in a person is to constantly throw official duties at that person.

For this reason, Gu Mingyuan specially built a new study room in the house, which was specially used for processing official documents, and there was a soft couch in the room, which also saved the journey to go back to rest when he was busy.

Most of the documents in the study are official documents, and female dependents are not allowed to enter, so Gu Chuyue was stopped by the little maid as soon as she arrived at the door of the study.

But Gu Chuyue stood for a long time, but she just didn't leave.

She smiled lightly, "It's okay, my father is busy with official business, I naturally understand when I am a daughter, I won't break in, but my father is afraid that he is busy and has not had breakfast yet, I am really worried about my father's body, so I just came, you just need to go in and say goodbye." ”

This...... Is this still the eldest lady?

The little girl looked at the eldest lady in front of her with crooked eyebrows with a little suspicion, and said that the eldest lady had changed, but she didn't expect that it really seemed to be a different person.

Gu Chuyue raised her eyes and met the eyes of the little girl, and her apricot eyes were full of thoroughness and sincerity.

Seeing that the eldest lady noticed his scrutiny, the little maid instantly lowered his head and said, "The slave will go to the courtesy, and I will bother the eldest lady to wait for a while." ”

At the moment when the little maid entered the house, Gu Chuyue turned around and took the food box from Pearl's hand, and looked at the closed door with a smile.

There was movement outside the study, and Gu Mingyuan also heard it, but he thought it was the Wang family who came to deliver the soup, so he didn't care, and he didn't look up when he heard the sound of the door opening, and said casually: "Madam is gone?" ”

Knowing that the little guy didn't answer for a long time, Gu Mingyuan frowned and raised his head and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Master, it's not Madame, it's the eldest lady who has been waiting outside the door for a long time, saying that she is here to bring breakfast to the master."

Gu Mingyuan's hand holding the pen paused, and he left an ink spot on the fold, he looked up and asked again: "Who do you say is outside?" ”

"If you go back to the master, it's the eldest lady."

Gu Mingyuan was surprised in his heart, his eldest daughter had never sent him breakfast, and he had never even entered the courtyard of the study, why did he suddenly come here today?

"You tell her, let her go back." Gu Mingyuan continued to bow his head.

"Yes......"

The little servant was about to withdraw, when the courtyard suddenly sounded the exclamation of Pearl.

"Yikes! Miss, why are your hands so cold, why don't you go and get you a cloak? ”
