The old lady was really angry, so she simply punished Yu Ran to stay in the other garden, and was not allowed to go anywhere, which was called the name - grounding.

Originally, she didn't want to go to Zhou's Mansion to walk around, but after Yu Ran's incident, she felt that she had to go to see Zi Mo no matter what, lest Zi Mo think that it was she, an old woman, who was picking up Yu Ran to do such things.

The old lady didn't sleep well that night.

At dawn the next day, the old lady closed her eyes and felt better, so she took the carriage to Zhou's mansion.

Not long after Gu Xiyan got up, he heard that Mrs. Yu was coming.

"It can't be because I beat Yu Ran yesterday, and Mrs. Yu specially came to trouble you, right?" Hu Die asked nervously.

"Whether it's or not, we're not on the losing side, what are you nervous about? If you don't do it, I will also throw Yu Ran out of the Zhou Mansion. Gu Xiyan motioned to Hu Die to be calm and not to be impatient.

Hu Die was a little relieved and decided to act later when the opportunity came.

Old Lady Yu waited uneasily in the main hall until Gu Xiyan came out to see her.

She immediately stepped forward and accompanied her with a smiling face: "The old body suddenly took the liberty to visit, didn't disturb the princess, right?" ”

Gu Xiyan and Hu Die glanced at each other, feeling that the old lady didn't look like she was here to find fault.

"Grandmother is outside, just call me Xiyan." Gu Xiyan stepped forward with a smile and helped the old lady to sit down.

Mrs. Yu didn't expect Gu Xiyan to be so polite to her, she thought that Gu Xiyan would show her face.

After taking a seat, Mrs. Yu took a sip of tea and moistened her throat before getting to the point: "I already know what Ran'er did yesterday." She is young and ignorant, Xiyan, you don't care about her, I have punished her for grounding, so that she can reflect on it. ”

Gu Xiyan thought at first that Mrs. Yu had the same temperament as Mrs. Liu, but today, the old lady is not old and confused, and understands things.

"Miss Yu can't talk with her brain, but I'm glad that I faced it yesterday, if something like this happens in the palace, Miss Yu is afraid that she won't even be able to get out of the palace gate. The feet of the Son of Heaven are no better than other places, and the grandmother should also know that only by being cautious in words and deeds can she go a long way. Miss Yu has a frizzy temperament, the capital is a place of right and wrong, there are traps everywhere, and she needs her grandmother to look at Miss Yu more in the future, so as not to be used in the future and don't know what is going on. Gu Xiyan said with a straight face.

Mrs. Yu nodded while listening: "What you said is that I will discipline her well in the future." ”

Shu'er's death that year made the Yu family miserable. She knew very well that there was no end to the imperial power, and she could never joke about the safety of so many people up and down the Yu family.

Although she loves Ran'er, she can't let her mess around.

Gu Xiyan saw that the old lady was not displeased, and her heart was slightly relieved.

No matter how you say it, the Yu family is also Zhou Du's maternal grandfather's family, if you can get along well, it will be the best.

Mrs. Yu had lunch in Zhou's mansion, and Gu Xiyan specially ordered the cook to prepare some easy-to-cook food, which was light but delicious.

In addition, Gu Xiyan could speak and mumble softly, which quickly shortened the invisible distance between Mrs. Yu and her.

In Gu Xiyan's opinion, Mrs. Yu is not easy to get along with at first glance, but she is actually an old lady who loves face.

She took an opportunity to explain that after she and Zhou Du returned to Beijing from Suzhou, no one told the Yu family about moving into the capital, and the old lady's mood immediately rose a lot.

The old lady also said that this time is different from the past, Zhou Du is valued by Emperor Chengde, and it is appropriate to be busy with national affairs, as for other things, they are just small things, and there is no need to remember them.

After lunch, Gu Xiyan still wanted to keep the old lady in Zhou's mansion for a few days, but the old lady said that she was afraid of disturbing and insisted on going back to Yu's house.

Gu Xiyan had no choice but to send the old lady out of the house.

It's just that Old Lady Yu was a little worried when she saw the large bags and small bags of gifts prepared by Gu Xiyan.

"Grandmother, this is a little filial piety that Zimo and I should do. In a few days, I will go to Yu's house with my son to see my grandmother, and my grandmother will not see us. Gu Xiyan spoke softly.

After two hours of getting along with Gu Xiyan for a short time, Mrs. Yu found that this child was advancing and retreating, and the Zhou Mansion respected her from top to bottom, so she knew that she was a person who could do things.

When she first saw Gu Xiyan, she felt that this child was too good-looking and not dignified enough, which was actually a kind of prejudice.

After walking away in the carriage, the old lady still looked in the direction of the Zhou Mansion and found that Gu Xiyan was still standing in front of the Zhou Mansion, a child who knew more about etiquette?

Letting go of the prejudice in her heart, the old lady felt that this time she had really come to the right place.

Gu Xiyan waited for Mrs. Yu's carriage to go away before returning to the mansion.

In the evening, Zhou Du returned to Qishiyuan, and she reported the matter to him as soon as possible.

"I thought about waiting for the son to be free one day, or when he was resting, let's visit the Yu family. Although I haven't spent much time with my grandmother today, I think my grandmother is just an old naughty boy, but she loves face a little. The old man, just to get the care and attention of the younger generation, that day at the birthday banquet, I thought that our husband and wife deliberately did not go to visit the Yu family, so that the Yu family lost face, so they suddenly became difficult. Now that the misunderstanding has been clarified, it's not a bad thing for us to have more dealings with the Yu family, what does Childe think? ”

Gu Xiyan said a long list and handed Zhou Du a cup of tea, only to find that he had been staring at her.

"Did you hear me?" Gu Xiyan said angrily.

Zhou Du touched her head: "I just think that when you speak, your voice is good, and you are good-looking." ”

Gu Xiyan: ......

She suspected that Zhou Gongzi was saying sweet words and deliberately making her happy.

"I'll listen to you when it comes to family matters. Do you think that your grandmother is good, then your grandmother must be good, and you can still believe your husband's vision? Zhou Du told the truth again.

Gu Xiyan looked at Zhou Du helplessly: "This sounds like Childe is an unassertive person." ”

Zhou Du took Gu Xiyan's hand and sat down, and opened his lips indifferently: "Just have an assertive person in our family." It doesn't matter if the husband is not assertive, the lady can be assertive! ”

Gu Xiyan felt that there was nothing to continue to discuss in this matter, after all, Zhou Du listened to her in everything, she said that she was going to go into the sea of fire, and he would probably follow unconditionally.

No wonder Hu Die joked that day that Zhou Du was a wife and slave, at that time she felt that sometimes she was exaggerating, but now she thinks that Hu Die's words are well-founded.

After changing into a set of homely clothes, Zhou Du suddenly said: "We have been back in Beijing for a few days, when will Madame take me to see Mr. Yan?" ”

Gu Xiyan's heart sank when he heard this: "I didn't say that I wanted to take my son to see Mr. Yan, and it is impossible for Mr. Yan to see my son!" When I met Su Mei a few days ago, Su Mei said that Mr. Yan planned to leave the capital, a place of right and wrong, and would not come to the capital again for the rest of his life. ”

Zhou Du raised his eyebrows lightly: "As soon as I say I want to see Mr. Yan, Mr. Yan will leave Beijing." Xiyan, why don't you let me see him? Although I used to be hostile to him, I don't anymore, I just want to meet him and ask him something personally. ”
