"Qingdai, you are no better than Lian Xin. Lian Xin was sold into the palace at an early age, and she was alone and without worries. Your mother and I are both in the Zhenguo Palace. If you marry me in the future, will you let me go? I think your mother
That's what I mean, I want to keep you by my side. The boy from Wang Rui's family is now working with Manager Tian in the house. He is very smart and will be able to stand alone in a short time. He can also be a manager. "
Yao Mengxian saw that Qingdai's face was ugly, so she sighed, and then advised, "You have been my master and servant for many years, how can I harm you? I must find someone you like. If you agree, wait until you return to the house,
I'll ask Wang Rui's family to bring her boy over to have a look."
Speaking of which, this marriage was still a drag on Gu Chengyu's luck. If Gu Chengyu hadn't been promoted to three levels in a row, would the Wang Rui family have taken advantage of her to fawn over her? This marriage would not have been Qingdai's turn.
There are people in that house who are in favor of others. With Gu Chengyu's promotion, her status will naturally rise as well. This is the fate of a woman. It is sad and deplorable!
A sense of sourness welled up in Qingdai's heart, and her eyes became even more blurry, "Girl, let me, slave, think about it!"
She heard that Yao Mengxian's tone could not be refused, and her heart suddenly burned with anger.
Lian Xin was still one year older than her, but the girl didn't even mention helping Lian Xin arrange her marriage, but brought up her own marriage.
The girl's life in the mansion has been difficult these years, but she has always stayed by her side. Now that the girl has a good husband, he actually wants to kick her away.
It seems that the girl is jealous and intolerant.
Qingdai took a deep look at Lian Xin. This girl was also stupid. She wanted to see if the girl really planned for Lian Xin.
Yao Mengxian nodded when she heard this. After all, she had been a master and servant for many years, so she had to save some face for Qingdai.
If they return home in two days and Qingdai still doesn't give an accurate answer, she will simply point Qingdai directly to the boy from Wang Rui's family.
"Then slave, please leave first!" Qingdai bit her lip, she was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would not be able to help but scratch Yao Mengxian's pretty face.
Today was the night watch for Lotus Heart, so Yao Mengxian didn't say much and asked Qingdai to retreat.
After Qingdai left, Lian Xin stepped forward and said softly, "Qingdai doesn't seem to want to be with Wang Rui's family, girl!"
Yao Mengxian rubbed her eyebrows and said, "I have met Wang Rui's boy once. He is not only smart, but also very steady in his work. Do you think he really likes Qingdai's lively temperament? Isn't it because of my marriage? I heard about my wife's mother Chen before.
There were also attempts to get married with her family, but she rejected them all."
Now Yao Mengxian can find out some news in the house. Even if she doesn't want to find out, people will send the news to her. This is the benefit of power.
"Then this marriage is really great, but Qingdai is not willing to do it? Miss, let me go and persuade her tomorrow."
Lian Xin and Qing Dai have served Yao Mengxian together for many years, and there is always some affection between them.
Yao Mengxian sighed again, "This marriage is indeed a good one, but I'm afraid Qingdai has other ideas in her heart."
Lian Xin was shocked when she heard this. She was not stupid. She immediately understood what Yao Mengxian meant.
"How can this be true? Mr. Gu said that it is no exaggeration to say that he is a dragon or a phoenix among men. How can Qingdai think like this?"
In Lian Xin's eyes, Mr. Gu from Zhilan Yushu would not look down on someone like Qingdai even if he was a concubine.
Qingdai looks pretty, but compared to Mr. Gu and her own girls, she is really far behind.
Besides, Qingdai's identity is the same as hers, she is just a slave. Master Gu just wants to take a concubine, and those girls from good families who are literate and good-looking are the first choice.
What's more, she doesn't want to see those concubines being an eyesore in front of her girl, who is already suffering enough.
The next day, Gu Chengyu put on court clothes and prepared to report to Dali Temple.
The Emperor has been in poor health recently and has not been to the morning court for several days.
Therefore, Gu Chengyu did not need to get up early, otherwise at the beginning of the Yin period, Gu Chengyu would have to cross the bridge and wait outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
It's just that today he had to get ahead of schedule. He had just completed his mission and returned to the capital. He had to hand in a sign and enter the palace first, waiting for the emperor to summon him.
In addition, he had changed offices and was not familiar with the new colleagues. He had to go early on the first day to avoid giving a bad impression of being lazy.
Kuang Zhaoying of Dali Temple had some troubles with him before. This time he was transferred to Dali Temple, and he was unlikely to be given small shoes to wear.
Dali Temple and Hanlin Academy are in completely opposite directions, just to the west, but much closer than the original entrance to the palace.
As soon as he stepped into Dali Temple, an official came to greet him. Gu Chengyu looked at the official uniform he was wearing, and he should be a seventh-rank judge of Dali Temple.
"May I ask, are you Mr. Gu?" This man smiled before saying anything. He had a long face, a sharp chin, and a pair of smart eyes. He looked like a smooth person.
Gu Chengyu smiled and nodded, "Exactly!"
"Li Zhongxin, the official judge of Dali Temple, pays homage to Mr. Gu!"
Gu Chengyu raised his eyebrows, "It turns out to be Li Pingshi. I wonder if Mr. Kuang is in Dali Temple at the moment?"
"Looking back, Sir, Sir Kuang has already arrived, but he just went to the East Palace." Li Zhongxin saluted respectfully and replied.
Although Gu Chengyu was smiling on his face, he was thinking in his heart: Who knew when he would come back when he went to the East Palace to discuss matters?
Could it be that he wanted to give himself a slap in the face? Today was his first time on duty. His immediate boss was not here, and other officials could not be seen. He only saw a seventh-grade official here to greet him, which was too slight.
It stands to reason that given his rank, he had just been transferred to Dali Temple, so all the lower-ranked officials should have come to pay him a visit.
"Xiaguan is here to greet Mr. Gu on the order of Mr. Kuang. Please come with me. Let's go to your office first."
Li Zhongxin looked respectful on his face, but he was worried in his heart.
Mr. Kuang was too negligent towards Mr. Gu. When a new official took office, he had to ask all the lower-ranking officials to pay a visit and get to know this popular Mr. Gu.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Kuang seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Mr. Gu, which made it difficult for the group of people below him to follow suit.
Lord Kuang wouldn't let go, and they didn't dare to leave their house without permission. If they offended Lord Kuang, how could they still live in Dali Temple?
"Then there is Mr. Lao Li!"
Li Zhongxin waved his hand quickly, "Master Gu made a serious statement, I don't dare to take it seriously! I don't dare to take it seriously!"
"Sir Gu, this is your office. Please come in and see if you are satisfied with it. If there are any items that need to be replaced, just tell me."
The two of them walked to a house next to a big pine and cypress. Although it was not a separate courtyard, Gu Chengyu felt a little satisfied when he saw that the environment here was quiet and the furnishings inside were quite spacious and elegant from the outside.
