It was a coincidence that Gu Mozhai went out early today. After making a dinner appointment with a group of friends, he came out of the teahouse and was about to leave.
As a result, he heard someone yelling "Yao Ruyan" angrily, and he was stunned for a moment.
The friend next to him was also stunned for a moment: "Brother Gu, I seem to hear someone calling Mrs. Sister-in-law..."
Moreover, he still looked very angry.
Gu Mozhai's heart skipped a beat: No way, although my cousin is a little willful, she won't start a fight with others on the street...
There were already some people outside Lingcui Pavilion, and when he heard them talking incessantly, Gu Mo Zhai felt bad.
Just as he was hesitating whether to squeeze in and see what was going on, or to pretend he didn't know and just leave, the crowd dispersed and made way for them.
Then Gu Mozhai saw a team led by Yao Ruyan rushing out from Lingcui Pavilion.
"Mo Zhai?"
"Cousin...sister..." Looking at each other, Gu Mo Zhai wished he could dig a hole and bury himself.
Although he is a little naive, he is not naive enough to think that being watched by so many people is a "glory" thing. Especially, what he just heard about their discussion seems to be his cousin's fault - this
The daughter of the Yao family was so arrogant that she even robbed other people's things.
——I heard that this is custom-made.
——Isn’t that right? Miss Lin already said that it was given to the eldest princess.
——Ouch... Isn't this Earl Yao's mansion in a state of decline? Isn't this the daughter of the Yao family crazy if she still does such a thing?
——What's Earl Yao's Mansion? It's the Viscount's Mansion, and it has been kicked out of the capital circle a long time ago. I don't know where it is now.
…
Gu Mo Zhai's face turned red and white.
Uh... Yao Ruyan is also embarrassed. Can she say: her uncle asked her to do this?
But there were so many people, and it was difficult for her to explain to Gu Mo Zhai. She could only whisper to Gu Mo Zhai, "I'm leaving first," and then quickly retreated with the maids and slaves.
If Mr. Gu hadn't always loved her, Yao Ruyan would have been a little suspicious - couldn't this be a trap set by her uncle to alienate her relationship with her cousin?
——No, probably not, she offended the Lin family.
——No matter how stupid her uncle is, he won't let her offend an official for no reason, right?
"Yao Ruyan, don't even think about running away. Just return your things—"
How could Lin Xueyi let Yao Ruyan run away? She rushed out to chase the person and even ordered the maid to steal things from the person.
It was a pity that in order to keep a low profile when she went out, she took a maid with her. As for the coachman and the woman who was running errands, she pushed them aside.
With just one or two people, it was difficult for Yao Ruyan, who had been prepared and brought a group of people with him, not to mention grabbing things, but also to stop them.
Lin Xueyi ran away, eyes red with anger: "Yao Ruyan, just wait for me, I will tell the eldest princess, you dare to snatch her things, I think you are desperate..."
Yao Ruyan got on the carriage and asked the coachman to drive home.
As for what happened next, she didn't know what to do. She would go back and tell her uncle first and see what he meant.
It feels good when he causes trouble, but when he thinks of the consequences of causing trouble, Yao Ruyan's little heart beats wildly: Either I'm crazy, or my uncle is crazy, he actually let me do such a thing...
——Ahhhhh...I'm done!
——When my aunt finds out, she will definitely deal with me.
——Ah, and my cousin, my face is really all gone this time.
…
Behind him, Gu Mo Zhai was still standing there, stunned.
When he saw Lin Xueyi coming out, his first reaction was to quickly dodge behind his friend, fearing that he would be discovered and unable to escape.
Lin Xueyi didn't notice him. After yelling at Yao Ruyan, she was so angry that she cried. She called the maid and shouted that she wanted to go to the eldest prince's mansion and let the eldest prince's concubine make the decision for her.
A group of onlookers were also a little eager to follow Lin Xueyi to watch the fun.
Of course, they didn't dare to follow too closely, but followed from a distance to see if they could see a follow-up. If that didn't work, they could only wait patiently and wait a few days before trying again.
As soon as the crowd dispersed, Gu Mo Zhai and several friends were revealed.
The friend's expression when he looked at Gu Mo Zhai was wonderful.
Someone patted Gu Mo Zhai on the back and said, "Brother Gu, you... have worked hard!"
Marrying such a trouble-making wife, who is also a cousin, I'm afraid this "husband" will not be able to live up to his expectations.
Otherwise, when Yao Ruyan saw Gu Mo Zhai just now, she would not have only seen "guilty as a thief" but not "fear".
"Actually, my cousin is not usually like this..." Gu Mo Zhai didn't know how to explain it, but he was trying hard to restore the image of himself or his cousin, "Something must have happened today... The front
We didn't see the ones at the back, we only saw the ones at the back, maybe we made a mistake..."
Having said that, Gu Mo Zhai couldn't hang out anymore, so he hurriedly said goodbye to them and hurried home.
Even if my cousin suddenly went crazy outside, she seemed to have offended the eldest princess...
Ahhhh...he is going crazy!
My cousin has caused such a big trouble. My parents and brothers would go crazy if they knew about it.
Gu Mo Zhai was still driving on the road, and Yao Ruyan, who was sitting in the carriage, had already returned to Gu's house. As soon as she entered the door, she ran to Mr. Gu's study, not caring about her image at all, and she was very anxious.
"Uncle, uncle, something happened..."
In the study, Mr. Gu was still talking to Mrs. Gu. When he saw Yao Ruyan's panic, he stood up quickly: "What happened?"
Mrs. Gu was also worried.
When she heard what Mr. Gu said just now, she had not blamed her sister-in-law, but the knife was already hanging above her head, so it was useless to blame her.
She could only help Mr. Gu anxiously to come up with ideas and see if there were any useful contacts in her family and the relatives and friends she usually interacted with.
"Master, isn't there a concubine from my sister-in-law's family who entered Prince Jin's backyard? Otherwise, we can ask them to help..."
As soon as Mrs. Gu finished speaking, Mr. Gu shook his head and said: "The concubine in my sister's family is very ambitious. If we give this credit to the King of Jin County, do you think my sister's family can still have a good life in the future? And
, how do you know that the person behind the scheme has nothing to do with Prince Jin?"
"What do you mean..." Mrs. Gu took a breath and was about to speak when Yao Rumeng barged in from outside.
Yao Rumeng ran so hard that there was sweat on her forehead. When she entered the door, she saw her aunt was there, but she couldn't care about it. She said breathlessly: "Uncle, didn't you ask me to go out and cause trouble? I did, but this trouble
It’s a bit big, are you sure you can square it?”
Without waiting for the old man to speak, she said anxiously, "That's the eldest princess. I didn't expect that the tiara Lin Xueyi ordered was actually for the eldest princess, but I grabbed it all and the play was already halfway done.
I couldn’t stop, so I had no choice but to continue acting..."
"Uncle, I snatched the crown, and Lin Xueyi was offended. When I left, she had already run to the eldest prince's palace, saying that she needed to rely on my status."
"Uncle, it was you who caused me to get into this trouble. If someone from the eldest prince's palace gets me into trouble, you have to make the decision for me."
