Here, Gu Pei didn't care about Mrs. Gu, and left directly after having someone take her back to her house.
When Mrs. Gu entered the house, she felt very uncomfortable thinking that Panpan was so close to Chen Miaoyin and alienated her as her own mother.
Mrs. Gu looked coldly and thought to herself: "What exactly happened today, I must find out clearly."
So, she went to Gu Minghua's yard again to talk to Lu Wenting about what happened to her brother.
Unexpectedly, it would be okay if she didn't go, but she would be even more angry once she went.
"Madam, don't be angry, I'm going to call someone to wake you up right now." Grandma quickly comforted her.
Mrs. Gu was already angry, but now she could only vent her anger on Lu Wenting, saying: "What time is this? Why is she still in the room with Minghua and not coming out? She lets Minghua drain her body and waste her studies."
What good is she?"
After a while, Mrs. Lu also dressed up and walked over slowly, saying warmly: "Mom, who made you angry?"
Mrs. Lu still didn't know what happened. She and Lu Minghua had been messing around in the room, and the servants didn't dare to disturb them.
Her face was glowing red, and the kiss marks under her thin shirt were looming. When Mrs. Gu saw it, her face became even colder: "Hua'er is full of blood. He doesn't know how to restrain himself. Don't you understand either? It hurts Hua'er's body.
, why does he still have the energy to study and take the imperial examination? You guys are really in trouble."
Mrs. Lu said shyly: "Mom, it's my husband and he insists on it, but I can't do anything to him, he's like a ferocious beast."
Mrs. Gu's face turned red with embarrassment, and she didn't know what to say.
Immediately afterwards, she changed the topic and said: "Don't mention Pan'er and Lu Wenfeng's marriage in the future. In order to preserve the dignity of the two families, just pretend that it never happened."
"Why?" Mrs. Lu said in shock, "Wenfeng really likes Panpan, and the Lu family has prepared the betrothal gift."
So, Mrs. Gu also told what happened at the door of Yingchun Tower, and said in a deep voice: "Master Lu's reputation has been ruined, and the matter has become big."
Mrs. Lu also heard the strangeness in it. It was unbelievable and she added: "Wen Feng is not such a ignorant person. How could he break into a brothel in broad daylight, even if he thought he could return home..."
Mrs. Gu stared at her: "It turns out that your brother is really a dirty kid. He can't go in broad daylight, but he still wants to go at night. Your Lu family has prepared so many rooms for him. No wonder Pan'er doesn't want to marry him."
"That's not what I meant, mother, you misunderstood. Wenfeng is a scholar. Our family has always valued his studies more than anything else, and we will never let him get involved with women. Think again, he is going to take the imperial examination
As an official, does he really not even want his reputation? Besides, he went to the streets with Panpan. Both he and Panpan went to a brothel, but in the end Panpan appeared with Princess Wei. There must be some of them
That's strange." Mrs. Lu said quickly.
"What's weird?" Mrs. Gu was also confused.
"Maybe Panpan really drugged Wenfeng..." Lu Wenting only realized it later and explained Gu Panpan's anomaly again, and added: "Even my husband may have been drugged by her... So
My husband didn’t let me get out of bed.”
Lu Wenting kept muttering in her heart: Gu Panpan had been pretending to be good, but she didn't expect that she would even dare to drug her own brother, so she made the situation more serious.
After hearing this, Mr. Gu felt that it was very reasonable. She glanced at Mr. Lu and said, "Minghua is not like this usually. He has always been very diligent in studying. He used to work very hard when he was a child."
At this time, Grandma Lou and others in the kitchen were also summoned for questioning. After questioning, they found out that Gu Minghua's meals had been tampered with and all the tonics in the kitchen were gone.
After talking about it several times, Mrs. Gu no longer blamed Mr. Lu. It turned out that everything was done by Panpan.
She didn't give any medicine, just a little more tonic.
Therefore, Mrs. Gu's face became a little better and she said: "In any case, don't mention the marriage between Pan'er and Mr. Lu anymore."
She had to look for a good family for Panpan again. There were only a handful of people who could be as good as her aunt, and it was really hard to find...
Suddenly, she already had a candidate in mind.
At the same time, Lu Wenting was worried about Xiao Jiujiu. She also knew what it meant for the Gu and Lu families to get married again. To tie the two families together tightly, it was necessary to get married.
She said: "Mother, for the eight-treasure jade hairpin you are wearing, I have found matching earrings and necklace for you. I will go to the Lu Mansion to get them for you in a while."
She sighed again: "Well, if Pan'er and Wenfeng's marriage went as usual, those things should have been added to the betrothal gift."
"If the marriage is cancelled, the five hundred thousand silver I borrowed from my father last time may have to be paid back."
Mrs. Gu also had shallow eyes and was a little moved. She recalled Chen Miaoyin's aura today. This is what a woman should be like.
She is covered in silk and satin, and all the jewelry on her body is exquisite.
Now when he heard that he wanted to return the five hundred thousand taels of silver, he exclaimed in shock: "Last time you didn't say it was a loan. You said we are all one family and this is your dowry!"
"I was actually afraid that my mother would not ask for the money from the Lu family, so my daughter-in-law lied and claimed it was her daughter-in-law's dowry. My husband also knew about this. My mother didn't believe it, so she went to ask her husband. When my husband and my father asked me to borrow money, my husband
I even wrote an IOU."
Mrs. Gu's face fell instantly: "Hua'er went to borrow it and wrote an IOU."
"Originally, I was thinking that Panpan was going to marry into the Lu family, so this money would be regarded as a betrothal gift, so I stopped mentioning it. Now that the marriage has not been negotiated, this money..." Lu Wenting said softly: "But, mother
Don’t worry, I’ll make it clear to my father when I go back. There’s no need to be in such a hurry to pay back the five hundred thousand taels of silver I borrowed.”
Mrs. Gu didn't think too deeply about it. Now that she came to raise money, what would she give in return?
In the end, Mrs. Gu didn't talk to her any more, and hurriedly walked out again to go find Gu Pei to discuss the matter.
-
At the same time, on the other side, Gu Pei also followed the waiter's guidance and went to a private room.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Bai Changyan, Shang Yang and others waiting for him.
Shang Yang stood up politely and said respectfully: "I'm going to see Gu Yushi."
Gu Pei was also a little cautious. He nodded awkwardly and slowly sat down, saying: "Sir Shang, you don't have to be polite."
Nowadays, he is controlled by others everywhere, and there is no way he looks like a censor. Shang Yang is still a junior, but he can walk around the court with his chest held high.
Gu Pei was shorter than others from the ground up, so even if he knew that meeting Shang Yang and Bai Changyan meant meeting King Anyang, he couldn't hold his head up.
Bai Changyan poured a glass of wine for him, and also poured a glass for himself, "Gu Yushi, let's drink a glass of wine first to calm down the shock."
I saw that he was not restrained at all: "Gu Yushi, please."
At this time, Gu Pei raised his wine glass again and said to Bai Changyan: "Thank you Mr. Bai for saving Pan'er and not damaging Pan'er's reputation."
He thought: Did they invite him here to talk about his marriage to Pan'er, or was it something else?
