This is the first time that Gu Shaoyu heard that Su Erlang was the next proposed patriarch of the Su family, but he went to the door of the Gu family for Gu Xiaochun, which cut off his own future, thinking of this, Gu Shaoyu was silent.

Seeing him like this, the old lady Su also patted his shoulder and then said with relief.

"Erlang himself is willing, and we are willing, don't think about it here, taking good care of your body is the most important thing, don't forget, when you go to Sui'an City, there will be a tough battle to fight!"

Old lady Su's words are exactly about the prince's accession to the throne, involving the remnants of the previous dynasty, the East Palace must be a rising tide this time, but as the old saying goes, if the moon is full, it will be lost, and when the water is full, it will overflow, who knows if there will be any problems behind this flower, so it is better to be more careful.

After saying what he wanted to say, Gu Shaoyu turned back.

Now it is ten days and a half months before Chinese New Year's Eve, so it is still necessary to prepare.

It stands to reason that this is the first year after the Gu family gets rid of filial piety, and it should be lively, but there are so many things one after another, even if the people of the Gu family want to invite, they may not be able to invite those who used to be seated.

Therefore, I thought it would be better to have a simple year.

In the Qiwu Courtyard, Du Jingyi was instructing the housekeeper to arrange this year's New Year's Festival, looking at the simplicity of the New Year, but the expenses were far better than in the past many years, just because of the repair of the Gu family cemetery and the pensions for the soldiers who were injured and killed in battle, etc., the expenditure was nearly 100,000 taels.

This year's revenue alone is certainly not enough.

Fortunately, when Du Jingyi took over, the Gu family's industry was still profitable, so there was naturally a surplus.

"Let's do it like this first, and if there's anything inappropriate, we'll discuss it later."

The housekeeper said yes, and left the main house, and when he came out in a hurry, he met Gu Shaoyu who came back, and then leaned over to leave, and when Gu Shaoyu entered the main house, he saw Du Jingyi sketching on the account book, very carefully.

"What is Madame doing?"

One sentence brought Du Jingyi, who was carefully settling accounts, back to reality.

"The general is back?"

"Hmm."

When Gu Shaoyu walked over, Du Jingyi smelled a little bit of blood on his body, so even if the other party didn't speak, she knew what she was going to do, but she was also a knowledgeable person, and she wouldn't poke at the sore spot, so she poured a cup of tea to warm her body, and then said.

"At the end of the year, the accounts that should be cleared have to be calculated, there must be no surplus this year, maybe the first two years will also be subsidized, so the concubine body will do a good calculation, see if there is anything that can be streamlined, and the other is that the original Gu family industry has not been replaced a lot by Qifang openly and secretly? So the concubine thought that she would take advantage of the past few months to turn around and save trouble in the future. ”

"The property of the seventh house was swallowed by the three Su Yantong families, the Su family and the Yan family are easy to say, but the Tong family swallowed it, is it convenient for you to come back?"

Gu Shaoyu's words made Du Jingyi laugh.

"The general has forgotten where I came from? The brochures sent to the Tong family were naturally well listed, and the ones they took had nothing to do with the Gu family's main property, and the ones that really wanted to be replaced were all held by the concubines. ”

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu also felt that he was asking a little too much, and after drinking the warm-up tea, he said calmly.

"I'm going to Su's house today."

"Is it to find a way back?"

"Well, my uncle and grandfather said that they could let Erlang and his wife help with this matter, and then it can be regarded as finding a way back for the Gu family."

When Du Jingyi first heard this, he was still a little surprised, but he quickly understood what Old Lady Su meant, and then nodded and said.

"My uncle and grandfather are also for the good of the family and inherit the blessings of his old man."

Gu Shaoyu also meant this, and then said.

"In the past two days, you can see if there is a suitable time, I think let's let Lang'er and Yan Saburo get engaged first, it was originally a good thing, there is no need to let the third aunt worry more."

His words are exactly what Du Jingyi meant.

Although the third aunt took care of their emotions and did not mention this matter after taking off her filial piety, everyone also knew that the only thing she hoped for in her heart was that this matter could be properly concluded, otherwise the blossoming and fruiting of the family would be lush now, but Lang'er had been delayed, and they couldn't bear it.

"Don't worry, the general is thinking of this matter with you, and I handed over the news to my aunt yesterday, and I will come to the house early tomorrow morning to discuss."

"I'll be fine tomorrow, so I'll be at home with you."

"Okay."

The couple talked for a while about these idle things at home, and then quieted down, Gu Shaoyu took some words and looked at them with a book, but Du Jingyi was concentrating on calculating her accounts, which can be regarded as a rare time of quietness.

The next day, Mrs. Xing came to the door early in the morning, and naturally Yan Saburo and Xing Zhao appeared with him.

As for the third aunt and Gu Xiaolang, they all got up early and dressed up carefully, and when Du Jingyi saw it, he said something teasingly.

"Sister Lang is exceptionally beautiful today."

Gu Xiaolang's face was a little red, but she was not particularly twisted, so after just blushing for a while, she looked at Yan Saburo opposite with anticipation.

Because he blocked several assassinations for Lord Xing, Yan Saburo was injured at the moment, originally Mrs. Xing meant to let him recuperate at home, and he would make his own decisions about the things here, but he said that he would come, so Xing Zhao could only accompany him.

The brother wants to marry, the cousin wants to marry, and he, the "old man" who has done countless matchups in the middle, naturally wants to sit at the main table, so before the others have spoken, he is called Huan.

"They are all people who know the roots, don't learn the rules of those sour masters, open the door and talk brightly, or we will decide the date of engagement, the day of hiring, and the day of marriage together, saving you from running back and forth, it is also strange to toss."

As soon as he said this, he was interrupted by Mrs. Xing.

"Stinky boy, what nonsense! Can Lang'er marry someone so casually? If you want me to say, naturally you have to prepare well, not to mention that it will be more than half a year, so that this family affair can be done beautifully, you say yes, third sister-in-law. ”

The third aunt doesn't pay attention to these things at the moment, as long as Yan Saburo is good, she will be satisfied with her daughter in the future, not to mention that as she said that day, she will live with her daughter and son-in-law in the future, so she really doesn't care about these pompous things.
