Chapter 178 Heart-to-heart talk between four bedrooms
Author: Ge Rao
Marriage with the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion is something that many officials in the capital have been thinking about.
As for the Fang family, they were sure that the target would not be Gu Jiu at first, but Gu Hanzhang. However, they just didn't have the ability to get Gu Hanzhang to settle the marriage, so they would fall back and choose Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu and Gu Zhou are not bad in appearance, but one is full of lust and the other is full of ruthlessness, which is why they are far different from Gu Hanzhang.
Whether it is Gu Jiu or Gu Zhou, they were brought up to be what they are today, largely because of Zhang's pampering.
Do you want to say that Mr. Zhang has no regrets?
No, she also regretted that she should not have indulged her two sons in the first place.
But now, she can only try her best to find suitable wives for her two sons, in order to restrain her sons.
After a lot of effort, he fell in love with Miss Fang's family. After they fell in love, the two got engaged and the wedding date was set. Just before the invitations were sent, something happened to Gu Jiu.
In the entire huge Hou Mansion, the person in charge of the house was Princess Desao, the sister-in-law. Mrs. Zhang did not dare to say anything to her, let alone let Princess Desao go with her to the Fang family to apologize.
If we really take Princess Dessau with us, I'm afraid they might be misunderstood and try to take advantage of the Fang family before they can show their attitude.
But just now Chaoli had the title of emperor, and she was the eldest concubine of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. It would be best if she went with him.
Chaoli thought for a moment and understood what Zhang was thinking, and she nodded lightly.
"Okay, I'll just go with my second aunt."
In the previous life, Gu Jiu was not injured, so Miss Fang married in relatively early. However, she was not easy to get along with. I don’t know whether it was because of her nature, or because of Zhang’s mother-in-law, and even Miss Fang’s temperament was not very good.
.
Miss Fang's difficulty in getting along is different from that of a spoiled rich lady like Gu Xiyue. Her difficulty in getting along is more calculated. She is truly impure and jealous of Chaoli, the imperial concubine.
Since Mrs. Zhang wanted her to go to Fang's house, it was to save her face and to suppress her, so Chaoli knew it.
It just so happened that she could go and take a look at what Miss Fang looked like before she got married. Was it the bad feng shui of Zhenbei Hou Mansion that had been subtly changed, or was there something wrong with her herself.
Anyway, she will definitely not be the one who gets offended then!
"Great, I know you are kind-hearted and willing to help second aunt with this matter." Mrs. Zhang smiled happily.
Gu Le, who had not yet left, reached out and pulled his mother's sleeve. The mother and daughter looked at each other, and Li immediately understood her daughter's thoughts.
"Daughter-in-law Hanzhang, I heard that you are good at embroidery. I just need to prepare clothes for the master to wear in the spring. Can you let me go to your place to see your patterns?" Li asked with a smile.
Chaoli smiled slightly and said, "Of course it's okay. Fourth aunt can just go back with me."
Looking at Fourth Aunt's reaction, it's probably not just for fun. I think she has something to say to her.
Zhang's face instantly darkened. She and Chao Li were talking, and it was really rude for Li to interrupt. She didn't take her seriously at all.
"Fourth brother and sister, you didn't see me talking to Hanzhang's wife, why can't you wait until we finish talking?" Zhang asked angrily.
Li Shi smiled gently and said, "Second sister-in-law misunderstood. I heard that you and Hanzhang's wife reached a consensus and didn't continue to talk about anything else. I only asked when I saw that she was about to leave. But if it makes Second Sister-in-law unhappy, I will definitely pay attention to it in the future.
, don’t disturb the second sister-in-law.”
After talking like this, Ms. Zhang couldn't even express her temper.
Chaoli knew that Fourth Aunt Gu's temperament was too gentle, her words were thorough, and her attitude was low, which really made people irritated.
According to Zhang's temperament, Li has been on good terms with her for many years, and it can be seen that Li has a broad mind.
Mrs. Zhang bullied the weak and feared the strong, and did not dare to deal with Princess Desao. She must have vented her anger on Mrs. Li, but Mrs. Li endured it anyway. She has such a good temper.
"Forget it, I'll go back first." Mrs. Zhang turned and left.
Seeing her like this, Chao Li chuckled and turned to look at Li.
"Fourth Aunt, let's go too," Chao Li said.
Mrs. Li nodded and took Gu Le with her to follow Chaoli. The three of them chatted and laughed as they headed to Tingyu Pavilion.
When Gu Hanzhang returned home, he happened to see the three people entering the courtyard. He did not come forward to disturb them and returned to the study to handle things. Going to the military camp to check the accounts was not that simple, so he had to be prepared first.
But seeing Chaoli with a smile on his face and holding the imperial edict in his hand, he must be happy.
By exchanging the credit for Chaoli's reward, Gu Hanzhang would not feel a loss at all, but would be very satisfied.
Chaoli didn't know that Gu Hanzhang had returned. She led Li and Gu Le into the front hall, handed the imperial edict in her hand to Qing Yi and put it away. She also ordered Pei Yu to make tea before looking at the mother and daughter.
"Fourth Aunt, do you have something to say to me?"
Mrs. Li smiled softly, "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. I just heard that you agreed to your second sister-in-law's visit to Fang's house. I already agreed that it was hard to say anything. I just wanted to remind you to pay attention to your second sister-in-law. Her temper is not as good as you imagined.
It's so good. In fact, letting you go to the Fang family means using your identity to put pressure on the other family. It's hard for the Fang family to say anything about Gu Jiu's marriage. In fact, I shouldn't have said these things.
You and your second sister-in-law are suspected of having a quarrel, but this girl is worried."
Chao Li felt warm in her heart. Li was as gentle and demure as in her previous life, and he treated her well. The same was true for Gu Le, who sincerely regarded her as a family member.
"Fourth aunt and little sister, don't worry, I will not be bullied, and I know that your kindness to me will not be misinterpreted." Chaoli replied with a smile.
Mrs. Li breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Chao Biwen misunderstood.
Gu Le suddenly smiled and said, "Mother, you see what I said is right. My sister-in-law won't blame us for being troublesome."
"You girl, don't be so straightforward when you go out." Ms. Li smiled.
Chaoli also laughed, "Fourth Aunt and my little sister will have dinner at my place today. We can talk about it in detail later. If Fourth Aunt knows anything else about the Fang family, you might as well tell me more."
sentence."
"Okay, thank you, sister-in-law." Gu Le was the first to express his opinion.
Mr. Li hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
"Then I will bother Hanzhang's wife for lunch today. The girl and I will have our meal here." Mrs. Li paused and began to think about the situation of the Fang family, "The Fang family is the home of Fang Ci, the minister of the Ministry of Rites.
Gu Jiu was proposing to marry Fang Ci's second daughter Fang Ru. If it were based on Jiu's own situation, the Fang family would not have agreed to the marriage. What they valued was only the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. What's more, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is now the capital of Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
There is no separation of families, Fang Ru is also from the Hou family when she is married. I have met Miss Fang several times, and I can’t say whether I like or dislike her, but I can tell that she is a little arrogant."
Chao Lixin said, the fourth aunt was still reserved. She was not a little arrogant, but she clearly had a bad temper.
Presumably Fang Ru was not that good before she got married. No wonder her previous life gave her a lot of anger.
Gee, I don’t know if I can see her tomorrow?
Tomorrow breaks out, the treasures applaud and encourage
