"No need to ask, of course I used the recipe from Baixiang Pavilion..." Gu Qingling was generous and talked about the "local specialties" she brought from Yunyang City with a smile.
He also pointed at Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Yao 2, and Mrs. Yao 3 and introduced them to everyone.
Putting the three wives of the Yao family aside alone, I don't think so, but the Gu family has young daughters-in-law of about the same age. If they are compared together, the feeling will come out - the one who is well-maintained and the one who is not well-maintained.
Is the gap too big?
The Gu family, who didn't take the "local specialties" brought by Gu Qingling at first, suddenly became interested and asked their servants to take them out.
When women talk about taking care of themselves or not, there are many topics to talk about.
The men couldn't stay any longer, so Mr. Gu took the initiative and led them to the backyard. Yao Anxin didn't stay long, and was abducted by her cousins. After a while, there were only a bunch of women left in the main hall.
"So soap has this effect, I didn't know it. No wonder I thought the soap you sent was very useful before. It turns out that it is like this..."
"Don't tell me, when I used it to take a bath before, I really found it very useful."
"Oh, not only do you need to use this, but you also need to apply this hydrating product? Wait, let me remember first, what should I use first?"
"This business will definitely do well. If you come to the capital, we will definitely go shopping. What?! You want to partner with us?!"
…
As they chatted, it turned into asking the Gu family to participate in the business of Baixiang Pavilion. The Gu family was stunned for a moment.
Mrs. Gu immediately understood in her heart that her sister-in-law wanted to "repay" the Gu family and repay the favor.
Seeing the young wives having a heated discussion with Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Yao 2, and Mrs. Yao 3, the smile on her face became much bigger.
When Mr. Gu helped her before, her head almost exploded.
When she was young, my sister-in-law had a lot of things to do, but she was confused and couldn't do any big things. She was an Earl's Palace, so she just managed it. But she didn't expect that a big one would come to her now that she is old?
Mrs. Gu really doesn't want to take care of it, but that's no good. Second Master Yao has already entered the Gu family's door. Not to mention, once such a big thing breaks out, the royal family will not care about your participation. Just rely on the old lady of the Yao family.
If she is the married aunt of the Gu family, then she must be destroyed together - implicating the nine clans, this is a normal thing.
"thump--"
"thump--"
Mrs. Gu's heart was beating violently, and her hands and feet were almost weak as she discussed the following issues with Mr. Gu. She didn't even have time to be "angry" or "angry". She just hoped that the royal family would see the "
For the sake of "Secret Recipe for Preventing and Treating Smallpox", let this matter go through safely.
As for the reward, Mrs. Gu didn't dare to think about it.
However, the facts proved that her and Mr. Gu's strategy was correct. Not only did they seek peace, but they also sought some grace for the Gu family.
These graces seemed inconspicuous, but they allowed the Gu family to show their face in front of the emperor.
In the future, when the smallpox prevention and control method is promoted and it really plays a big role, the royal family will not forget the "loyalty" of their Gu family, and maybe there will be some invisible benefits by then.
Of course, Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu have a tacit understanding. They only discussed it in private and did not put it on the surface.
After all, the capital is now booming, and they don't know if there are any royal spies at home.
The Gu family was almost dragged into the water by Gu Qingling, and they were frightened for a while. Now it is normal for Gu Qingling to reciprocate a gift or two in return.
My sister-in-law is so self-conscious, how can Mrs. Gu be unhappy?
Moreover, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Yao also said that when the business in Beijing starts, if the cousins and sisters want to open to other places, they will be happy to do so. As for the specific cooperation method, we need to have a good discussion at that time.
Talk.
One, they don't know the situation yet, so there is no point in talking early; the other, they also hope to make some achievements first, so that everyone can feel confident before talking.
Not to mention anything else, this approach alone made Mrs. Gu extremely comfortable.
While everyone was talking, Gu Qingling also said hello to Mrs. Gu, and whispered for a while to Yao Ruyan, the biological daughter of the original owner.
Yao Ruyan was the most beloved daughter of the original owner. Both emotionally and rationally, Gu Qingling needed to have a good chat with her and take the opportunity to learn more about this cheap daughter.
Sure enough, Yao Ruyan was naive and very good at telling tricks. Gu Qingling soon figured out Yao Ruyan's situation in the Gu family.
The Gu family was indeed very kind to Yao Ruyan. Both Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu pampered her and loved her. Even the sisters-in-law had some opinions, but they did not make a fuss.
"It's true that they don't like me very much, but so what? I have an uncle, and my aunt dotes on me, so how can they do anything? Isn't it better to hide it and not dare to let people know..." Regarding those few people who looked at
Yao Ruyan didn't pay attention to her displeasing sister-in-law at all.
Gu Qingling also knew about Yao Ruyan's "fourth sister-in-law". At that time, the fourth nephew's wife was going to introduce a girl from her parents' family to Gu Mozhai, but she didn't expect that the original owner would "preempt her".
It is normal for the fourth nephew's wife to dislike Yao Ruyan.
However, Yao Ruyan has Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu protecting her. No matter how dissatisfied the fourth nephew is, she does not dare to show it. In addition, the eldest nephew is now in charge of the Gu family, and it is not the fourth nephew's turn to do anything.
Yao Ruyan's normal life was not affected at all.
Yao Ruyan is also big-hearted. When talking about these things, she talks about them carelessly, without covering up, and she looks completely unafraid.
However, when Gu Qingling listened to Yao Ruyan opening and closing her mouth to say "uncle", "aunt", "cousin" and the like, she frowned.
If she remembers correctly, it has been almost two years since Yao Ruyan married into the Gu family, right?
As a result, Yao Ruyan did not change her calling "father-in-law" and "mother-in-law", but kept calling her according to the rules of her parents' family, and yet she was the daughter-in-law of her uncle and aunt. Isn't this strange?
"Ru Yan, why do you still call me uncle or aunt?" Gu Qingling thought for a moment, then pointed it out and said, "Since you are married to Mo Zhai, shouldn't you call him uncle and aunt? How can you still call him uncle?"
Uncle, aunt? According to the way you call me, are you married into the Gu family, or are you just a spoiled guest?"
"Ah?" Yao Ruyan was startled, "But I keep calling like this, uncle, and my aunt didn't say anything...my cousin didn't say anything either."
"They didn't say it, but what about you? Do you think of yourself as your uncle, your aunt's daughter-in-law, your cousin's wife, or do you think of yourself as a spoiled guest who comes to visit you?"
"Uh..." Yao Ruyan really hasn't thought about this problem.
But there was one thing, she had to admit, by shouting like this, she did try to make the other party feel more pain and make her suffer more for the sake of her being her "niece" and "cousin".
But her mother suddenly said this, and Yao Ruyan became somewhat nervous and asked carefully: "Mom, did I...do something wrong?"
