On the surface, Zhang was asking Gu Hanzhang about what happened last night, but in fact she was looking at Chaoli's attitude.
It is undeniable that Zhang also has some thoughts about Chaoli.
Chaoli smiled slightly and said, "Where did the second aunt hear this news? It's not easy to say. It's false as soon as I hear it. You know, the prince and I have a very good relationship. We have only been married for more than three months. He
How can I accept other women?"
While speaking, Chaoli lowered his eyelids with an embarrassed look on his face, but Zhang didn't notice that there was a hint of coldness in Chaoli's eyes.
With Princess Desshao in charge, Mrs. Zhang could still know what was going on in Tingyu Pavilion so quickly.
Sure enough, her second aunt is not simple.
No wonder she was handled so well by Mrs. Zhang in her previous life. She must have been in the entire Marquis Mansion. She was indeed very skilled, better than her pampered mother-in-law.
Zhang's face was slightly stiff. At first glance, Chao Li's expression seemed a little confused.
It doesn't make sense, she heard the servants secretly discussing that a maid came out of Gu Hanzhang's study in disheveled clothes this morning.
Could it be that I saw it wrong?
"However, the servants say they have noses and eyes, so it's hard for people not to believe it." Mrs. Zhang frowned.
Chaoli shook his head, "Second Aunt is not in Tingyu Pavilion, so she doesn't know what happened this morning. Don't listen to the nonsense of those gossipy servants. If Second Aunt wants to know anything, it's better to go directly
Ask the prince and I, the results obtained from hearsay may not be so true."
Mrs. Zhang's face turned blue and red at Chao Li's words. She had every reason to believe that Chao Li's words were deliberately spoken to block her.
I had heard it originally, but now that Chao Li mentioned it like this, it seemed that she was shameless and came to stir up trouble in front of her nephew and daughter-in-law. At this moment, Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
"Niece-in-law, I'm sorry, I misunderstood."
It has to be said that Mrs. Zhang is very adaptable. Even if she apologizes to a junior like Chaoli, she can do it in just one sentence.
As such, Chaoli naturally wouldn't say much.
"Second Aunt, don't worry about it." As he said that, Chao Li raised his hand to lift the car curtain beside him and glanced at it, "It won't be long before we get to Fang's house."
The Fang family in front of me looks much grander than Fang Yaohui's. Fang Ci, the Minister of Rites, is said to be from King Rui, but it is Gu Jiu who marries Fang Ru and has nothing to do with Gu Hanzhang.
If anyone thinks that if Gu Jiu goes to Fang Ru, he can get the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to join forces and go to King Rui's side, then they are totally wrong.
Gu Jiu is not the second son of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. He does not have even half of the rights in his hands. Like his father, it is not that easy to get the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to take sides.
Zhang followed Chaoli's gaze and saw that she was indeed going to Fang's house.
"Nephew and daughter-in-law, the Fang family and your mother's family both have the surname Fang. Maybe you were a family hundreds of years ago. You and Fang Ru should get along well in the future. There will be no quarrels between the sisters-in-law, and life will be better.
If we live in harmony, our Marquis Mansion will definitely be fine in the future." Madam Zhang said with a smile.
"I don't know what happened hundreds of years ago, but Mr. Fang's Fang family has nothing to do with my grandfather's Fang family." Chaoli looked at Zhang's stiff face with a smile, and then continued, "But what the second aunt said
To be honest, Miss Fang and I will definitely get along well in the future."
For some reason, Mrs. Zhang felt that there was something in Chaoli's words, especially the last few words, which Chaoli bit hard.
But after thinking about it deeply, there was nothing wrong with it, so I had to give up.
At this time, the carriage had arrived at the gate of Fang's house.
Pei Yu lifted the curtain and helped Chaoli out of the carriage.
Since Mrs. Zhang had handed over the greeting card two days ago, as soon as the carriage arrived at Fang's house, the servants saw a big word "Gu" written on Mrs. Zhang's carriage and knew it was the carriage from the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
The servant waiting outside the porter came over to greet the carriage before it stopped, with a flattering smile on his face.
"I have met the Second Lady and the Crown Princess. Thank you for your hard work. Our Lady has been waiting in the front hall for a long time. Please come with me."
Of course, Mrs. Zhang knew very well that the flattery of the servants did not come from her, but because of Chaoli. When Mrs. Zhang came to propose marriage before, she had never seen these people so flattering.
But Mrs. Zhang didn't care. Today, Chaoli was brought here with the intention of using Chaoli's fox to pretend to be a tiger. Chaoli must not have noticed at all.
"Thank you." Chaoli responded.
Walking into Fang's house, the servants took Chaoli and Zhang to the hall before going down.
When Chaoli stepped into the hall, the two people who were originally sitting immediately stood up and faced Chaoli.
"I've met the Crown Princess."
Even though they are older than Chaoli, they still have to stand up and salute Chaoli. After all, her status is extremely noble.
There was only one woman sitting at the top. She was Fang Ci's wife and Fang Ru's biological mother.
As for the woman sitting below her, she should be Fang Ru's aunt.
Chaoli smiled and waved to several people, "You don't have to be polite. I came here with my second aunt today for the wedding of our second brother and Miss Fang. I just followed my second aunt."
At this time, Ms. Zhang also stepped forward with a smile on her face.
"Don't say that, nephew-in-law. I asked you to come here today. If you need help with the upcoming wedding, you can naturally speak freely."
After hearing what Zhang said, Mrs. Fang and Aunt Fang still didn't understand Zhang's purpose.
Aunt Fang's family is pretty good, and she doesn't feel too aggrieved. Anyway, Fang Ru is not her daughter. She was forced to come here today, and she doesn't like Fang Ru much either.
Mrs. Fang's expression was a bit unsightly. She had originally made up her mind to get some benefits from Mrs. Zhang, but now that Mrs. Zhang has tied up her marriage with the imperial concubine Chaoli, she might not be too good at it.
So much to say.
"Thank you for your trip, let's sit down and talk first." Mrs. Fang said with a smile.
It's just that this smile has a hint of bitterness.
Chaoli pretended not to notice and sat down silently instead of sitting on the main seat next to Mrs. Fang.
Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang did not sit up, but sat below Chaoli.
"Today, my nephew and his wife came to Fang's house to apologize to Miss Fang. This matter was indeed our fault. I didn't expect that Gu Jiu would accidentally fall off the horse, thus delaying the wedding, so I could only
Move the days back some time. Since it is our fault, no matter what the in-laws’ requirements are, we will try our best to satisfy them.”
If you just listen to Mrs. Zhang's words, it will make people feel that she is sincerely apologizing, so people will not be too disgusted.
However, the Zhang family brought Chao Li here, which seemed a bit like bullying, and there was a suspicion of using Chao Li's identity to bully the Fang family.
As expected, Mrs. Fang's expression changed.
"If my mother-in-law is here, now that my future uncle is injured, how can we ask for anything?"
