The current situation was designed by him and General Shen who was far away at the border. Of course, he knew everything about it.
As for the magical effect of doing this... we will naturally find out in the future.
Gu Xinian had to deal with his shrewd and profound grandfather carefully, and pretended to be surprised when he heard this: "What do you mean, grandfather said that? I am so busy working in the Ministry of Household Affairs every day for food, grass and military pay, how can I have time to think about these things. "As he spoke, he sighed again: "I also hope that the war will end soon. If this continues, Hube will not be able to hold on for long."
Gu Youhe made some insinuations, but Gu Xinian pretended to be dumbfounded and ignored him. Seeing that Gu Youhe couldn't tell anything, he had to let him go back to Izuyunxuan.
Gu Xinian was thinking about keeping vigil with his beloved wife and hurried back to the yard. Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the house, he was greeted by a big "surprise"!
"I have met the young master!" The tall, tall and beautiful maid bowed shyly. The familiar face was shocking under the candlelight.
Gu Xinian was stunned and looked at Ye Qinglan reflexively.
Ye Qinglan walked over with a slow smile: "Ms. sir, this maid is called Haitang. She is the maid given to you by your grandmother as your first-in-law. Of course, a junior cannot refuse this kindness. So I will take advantage of tonight to get her." I'm back." After a pause, he joked in a narrow-minded way: "Looking at this face, does your heart feel particularly surging?"
Sure enough, it was grandma’s fault!
Gu Xinian's handsome face immediately darkened, and there was a hint of chill in his voice: "Has she been idle all day with nothing to do?" Damn it, where did you find such a maid? She actually looks like she did back then. Shen Qiuyu! It would be strange if my heart could still calm down after seeing her for the first time!
However, this kind of unrest is not filled with any excitement or joy, but with boredom and hatred...
Ye Qinglan smiled pointedly and said: "There is also a maid named Shaoyao, who has been known to Ting Yuxuan by her younger siblings. According to my grandmother, these two maids were sent by others. I don't know who did this. I deliberately found two such beautiful maids and sent them over."
...
Gu Xinian was so perceptive that he naturally heard some unusual meanings, and his eyes darkened.
The couple quickly exchanged glances. Both saw the anger in each other's eyes.
Who else but Shen Qiuyu would go to great lengths to do such a thing? Fortunately, she could come up with such a trick. Even if Gu Xinian refused to accept the Begonia, he still managed to get through to Ye Qinglan. If Ye Qinglan is a bit less arrogant and might have already started to quarrel with Gu Xinian now!
Thinking of this, the anger in Gu Xinian's heart welled up. He snorted coldly: "I didn't take the initiative to deal with her, but she refused to calm down and actually took action against you."
Ye Qinglan did not answer the question and simply gave a command: "Ruixue, take Miss Haitang to the resettlement! Ruomei, please step aside too."
The two maids agreed in unison and led Haitang back. Haitang seemed to be obedient, but before leaving, she glanced at Gu Xinian reluctantly. Not to mention, that look was quite autumnal. Yu's style.
Gu Xinian's face turned a little darker.
Ye Qinglan couldn't help laughing, and joked: "I'm kindly sending you a beautiful and charming maid. It's fine if you don't appreciate it. Why are you still keeping a straight face? People who don't know see it and think it's me as their wife." I’m so jealous that I’ve made you angry!”
Gu Xinian rolled his eyes at her angrily: "Okay, I'm feeling angry, so don't add fuel to the fire. You'd better think about how to retaliate."
Ye Qinglan blinked and smiled leisurely: "I don't care about this matter. Grandma has said that wives must be virtuous. They cannot stop their husbands from sleeping with other women. I don't want to let anything go. So, this matter
It doesn't matter how you handle it, I don't have any objections."
You really have to be good even if you get an advantage! Gu Xinian glared at her with a dumbfounded look. Just as he was about to say something, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and the corners of his lips slowly curled up.
Ye Qinglan asked curiously: "What idea did you come up with?"
"You will know in a few days." Gu Xinian made a plan in his mind and was in the mood to joke again: "Don't worry, even if I really want to find another woman, I will never give in to this kind of woman just by looking at her.
You feel uncomfortable."
Ye Qinglan was amused and pretended to be a ferocious tigress: "How dare you! I'll castrate you with a knife!"
Gu Xinian: "..."
Such a tough joke is too much for a man who grew up under feudal ethics.
Ye Qinglan looked at Gu Xinian's speechless look and giggled happily. Gu Xinian pulled her into his arms with some annoyance and rudeness, and blocked her lips without any explanation.
...
The new year comes quietly with a burst of deafening firecrackers.
No matter what method she used, Ye Qinglan managed to survive until after midnight, and then she fell asleep to the sound of firecrackers dripping with sweat and exhausted. Before she was full, she was awakened by the crackling sound again.
.
Ye Qinglan opened her eyes and found that the morning light was dim and the sky was dark. It was probably not yet midnight.
Gu Xinian also woke up. Looking at his sleepy, lazy and charming little wife, he couldn't help but bend his head and kiss her good morning. He originally wanted to do some morning exercise, but Ye Qinglan firmly stopped him: "Today
It’s the first day of the new year, so if you wake up late, it would be weird if you don’t get laughed at.”
Gu Xinian had no choice but to let her go reluctantly.
After getting dressed, the couple went to Jing Xinyuan first. Gu Xiyu had also arrived, and Gu Shengnian and his wife were also there with their three children. After all, it was the New Year, and having children always seemed particularly lively. Mrs. Zheng
He no longer had the coldness of the past. He called the three children to him with a smile, and each of them was given an exquisite gold collar.
Gu Xiyu automatically moved forward and looked at Mrs. Zheng eagerly.
Mrs. Zheng had obviously prepared a New Year gift, but she deliberately smiled and said: "You are seventeen years old after the New Year. You are already a big girl. You shouldn't ask for any more New Year gifts!"
Gu Xiyu responded plausibly: "But I'm not married yet. My sister-in-law said that as long as a girl is not married, she is still a child and not an adult. Of course, the gift cannot be missing!"
Mrs. Zheng was amused and stuffed the prepared small purse into Gu Xiyu's hand: "Yes, yes, you are right, so I will give you a small purse." The purse is small and exquisite, with excellent embroidery work.
The key point is that there is a huge and round luminous pearl inside. Even in the daytime, it still shines with dazzling light.
Ye Qinglan secretly exclaimed, "I don't know how much this luminous pearl is worth." Mrs. Zheng took it out to Gu Xiyu...
Gu Xiyu really liked it and held it in her hand with great interest.
Ye Qinglan smiled and said: "Such a good luminous pearl will look great when inlaid on a hairpin."
Gu Xiyu responded with a smile: "I already have enough gold hairpins, so I don't need to waste such good beads. I'd better put them in the box. I can get just five of them. I can play marbles when I have nothing to do."
...It is so luxurious to play with luminous pearls like glass beads!!!
Before Ye Qinglan could sigh, Mrs. Zheng had already smiled and waved to her. Ye Qinglan quickly gathered her thoughts, walked a few steps forward with a smile, and saluted her parents-in-law.
Compared to his father and his son, who were both deep and shrewd, Gu Hong's temperament was much gentler. He said with a smile: "When a family is together, there is no need for so many etiquette."
Mrs. Zheng was also very kind: "This is your first year here. As the mother-in-law, I have also prepared a small New Year gift for you. Whether it suits you or not, I just want to make it a lively and festive occasion."
, and took out a delicate and compact purse,
She actually had a share! Ye Qinglan was a little flattered, and took the purse with both hands respectfully: "Thank you, mother-in-law."
This purse is the same as Gu Xiyu's, but instead of a luminous pearl, it contains a ruby the size of a pigeon egg. This ruby has not been polished carefully, but it shines with a dazzling color.
.If it is polished and made into jewelry, I don’t know how dazzling it will be.
No woman can resist such a beautiful ruby. Ye Qinglan looked happy without having to pretend.
Mrs. Fan looked hot and couldn't help but said: "After all, my siblings are the lovable ones. My mother-in-law even gave you such a good ruby. I have been here for so many years and I have never received such a good New Year gift."
Although he tried his best to smile, the sourness in his words spread throughout the room.
Ye Qinglan smiled and said nothing.
Mrs. Zheng's smile faded. For the sake of the New Year, she didn't bother to argue with Mr. Fan. She stood up and said, "Okay, it's getting late. Let's go to Shunyi Hall to say hello!"
Gu Shengnian glanced at Fan with some displeasure. Although he said nothing, his eyes clearly showed his mood at this time.
Mrs. Fan was inconspicuously annoyed and had some chatter. Then she followed Mrs. Zheng obediently, not daring to talk anymore.
The New Year must be a lively and festive one, and even Mrs. Sun is rarely in a good-humoured mood today. Of course, this may also be because Ye Qinglan accepted Begonia obediently, and Mrs. Sun consciously got back the win, feeling quite proud. Look at Ye Qinglan
It's not as unpleasant as it used to be.
In the next few days, waves of relatives and friends came and went every day, almost without stopping.
Mrs. Zheng was busy with greetings and drop-offs, arranging banquets and other trivial matters. She was almost too busy to touch the floor. As the daughter-in-law, Ye Qinglan naturally had the duty to follow Mrs. Zheng. She really experienced the busy and hard work of being a matron.
.Not to mention anything else, just walking around every day makes my legs sore and weak at night, and I almost have no strength to stand.
On the sixth day of the new year, an unexpected guest arrived.
The prince led Shen Qiuyu to the Dingguo Palace. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
