By the time I returned to the mansion from the street, it was already completely dark.

Although the matter of Su Xiaomu and Gu Jingcheng's return was not widely publicized, they were not deliberately concealed.

Along the way, they also moved at a normal pace, so their friends in the capital knew that the two of them were back.

Before entering the mansion, Shi Lan had already received several invitations in the mansion, inviting them to enter the mansion tomorrow.

Lu Nianyou also sent two copies in a row, making it clear that he wanted Su Xiaomu to go to her house first tomorrow no matter what.

Gu Ruonan also returned home.

After she heard that Su Xiaomu and the others were coming back today, she kept telling Gu Yiyi that she wanted to go home.

Gu Yiyi thought that Gu Ruonan had been so well-behaved recently, and the third prince was too busy to take care of himself because of His Majesty's suspicions, so he should not have time to find the Gu family's bad luck for the time being, so he sent someone to send Gu Ruonan back to the house early in the morning.

With such a family reunion at night, Su Xiaomu watched Gu Ruonan, who he hadn't seen for two months, grow taller again, and was a little uncomfortable.

"Look at our little girl, I haven't seen you for two months and you've grown a lot more beautiful, you're a little thinner than before, right? The waistline of this dress is so much bigger, and when I go out shopping with the third aunt tomorrow, the third aunt will buy you some new clothes to wear. ”

Su Xiaomu didn't have any feelings for Gu Ruonan, and he couldn't say guilty at first.

After all, she found such a good support for Gu Ruonan when she left, so that she didn't have to bear the wind and rain in the capital.

But I didn't expect that these were the psychological defenses she made for herself when she left, and now that she saw Gu Ruonan again, Su Xiaomu's tears couldn't be held back all of a sudden, and she fell down in an uproar.

"Why is the third aunt crying? I don't need you to buy me new clothes, these days at Aunt Gu's house, she has bought me a lot of new clothes and jewelry, and I can't wear them all now, and I can't finish wearing them, all of them are put in my dresser and put them aside. ”

Gu Ruonan raised her white little hand to wipe the tears on Su Xiaomu's face, and said in the same crisp voice: "I have always wanted the third aunt and the third uncle, but Aunt Gu said that you are going to do great things, and you can't ask me to write a letter to disturb you, I am afraid that you will always worry about the things in the capital and not do good things, and you can't come back soon, so I have been enduring, and I have been obediently following Aunt Gu to learn the rules, and I haven't messed around at all." ”

"I know, our family Ruonan is a good boy, but the third aunt of the clothes is also going to buy it for you, this is to reward you for being so obedient, and it is something you deserve."

Su Xiaomu himself wiped away his tears, showed an incomparably bright smile and said to Gu Ruonan: "You go to the house first, I will let Shi Lan serve you to freshen up, let's get up early tomorrow and go to the street to stroll, and go to Fanlou to eat in the evening, you can order whatever you want to eat, but don't be polite to the third aunt." ”

"Okay."

Gu Ruonan gently pulled Su Xiaomu's sleeve and smiled happily back.

At night, Su Xiaomu slept with Gu Ruonan, and saw that the candles in the yard were still lit after she fell asleep.

Su Xiaomu got up and went out to check, it turned out that Gu Jingcheng had not slept yet.

Gu Jingcheng sat on a chair in the courtyard, holding a few letters that had just been opened, looking at it seriously.

It's just that his brows are furrowed, and his face is not very good-looking, and Su Xiaomu also knows that the content of this letter is not so pleasant.

"What's the matter? Could it be the third prince's side......"

Su Xiaomu draped the cloak she took out by the way on Gu Jingcheng's body, and after she took hot water from the kitchen and poured him a cup of hot water to warm his body, she sat down opposite Gu Jingcheng and asked him: "Mrs. Wuding Hou asked me to go to her early tomorrow morning, you say, will there be a struggle between these three princes and the family?" ”

Wu Dinghou's title is obtained from the shade, he may have some skills in the first half of his life, but after the emperor cut off his wings in the second half of his life, he is a gentle lame tiger outside.

If the third prince wants to take the family under the knife, and he still holds a grudge against Gu Jingcheng, Marquis Wuding is indeed a good candidate for him.

"I can't tell, it's a coincidence that we're in a hurry, three days later is the day when Shen Xiyan and Hasmu got married, there are rumors in the capital that His Majesty will personally appear at their wedding to bless them, and then issue an edict to announce to the world that the real prince is the candidate, in this case, the Wuding Marquis Mansion is nothing."

At the wedding in three days' time, there will inevitably be many things that are beyond their control.

"I thought they would get married again later, after all, this time the envoy from the Western Regions came not to offer the princess and relatives, but just the two of them just looked at each other, so today's thing happened."

Su Xiaomu thought of Hasmu and thought of Hasmu, and his mood couldn't help but be much more complicated.

"Then I'll go to Mrs. Wuding Hou tomorrow, and then go with you to see Lou Qi, since the rumors are already like this, Lou Qi should have a way to deal with it in order to make his sister's wedding not go wrong, and we just came back, and we are not familiar with the things in the capital, mainly because I always feel that the third prince will not let us go so easily."

Su Xiaomu was worried, and the expression on his face was not so good-looking.

She said, why didn't the three princes wear small shoes in Jiangnan City this time?

I thought that these three princes took care of the suffering of the people, so they let them go once.

Su Xiaomu was still sighing in his heart at that time, these three princes were so eager to repay him, and he actually had a little love for the people in his heart.

But he didn't expect that he was really targeted and lost power in the capital for a while.

Speaking of which, the change of this matter has to start with Gu Jingcheng going to Jiangnan City.

Su Xiaomu thought at first that going to Jiangnan City was to be degraded and to endure hardship.

Now that I think about it, it is also a kind of luck that keeps them away from these rights and wrongs in the capital.

The two of them sat opposite each other in the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon in the sky, and both of them had many words in their hearts that were indescribable.

This night was done together in the middle of the night, and it was not until the rooster crowed in the courtyard that Su Xiaomu returned to bed to rest with a pair of swollen eyes.

Now I can sleep, but it won't be long before I get up and go out again.

Wuding Marquis Mansion.

Su Xiaomu followed the subordinates who led the way around the crooked corridor, and walked for a while before arriving at Lu Nianyou's courtyard.

Lu Nianyou packed up early in the morning and waited for Su Xiaomu to come over, and when he saw Su Xiaomu enter his yard, he immediately stood up and pulled Su Xiaomu's hand, sat down with her after some greetings, and showed Su Xiaomu the account book of Xiyue Pavilion these days.

"Our business in the past two months has been very good, since there is a plaque from His Majesty, there are a lot of people who come to visit the shop every day, ordinary people are the main force, although they have no extra money to enjoy other services of Xiyue Pavilion, but their ability to purchase rouge gouache is unparalleled."
