Chapter 181 Chapter 181
Mrs. Yuanshuang didn't come alone, she was accompanied by Ji Xuewei.

A Mrs. Yuanshuang is enough to shock people, who would have thought that the Emperor Ji of the Kingdom of Wei would also come together.

Mrs. Zhou was surprised first and then overjoyed, but it was just an ordinary banquet and there were two of the most distinguished people from Great Wei present. For a while, Mrs. Zhou was grinning from ear to ear.

These two people can't easily see each other, one lives in seclusion and is kept in the palace tower, everyone has speculated about the reason why the two came here.

They also cast their eyes on the Zhou family's prostitute, Gu Mingluan, the daughter of Lingchuan.

This guy saved Emperor Wei at the beginning, so it's hard to say why the two of them came here, it was because of this.

Being acquainted with Mrs. Zhou, Fenfen praised her for raising a good daughter, let alone Mrs. Zhou, even Gu Mingluan felt a little more proud.

Mrs. Yuan Shuang is a person who likes to eat fast and chant Buddha, even if she is a guest at someone else's house, she is still wearing a lotus crown Taoist robe, with a calm expression on her face.

On the contrary, it was Ji Xuewei, who wore a lotus-colored concubine Xiang skirt, and wore a very soft double-ring bun. She didn't have a single belt jewelry, but she wore a beautiful corolla. The lotus tassels hanging from the corolla matched the lotus clothes on her. very proportionate.

Hearing her voice before seeing her, "Why isn't Ah Man here? I've missed her very much since the last time we said goodbye."

Gu Mingluan, who originally wanted to go forward to pay respects, paused when he heard the words, but praised quietly on his face, "Emperor Ji is so beautiful today, hurry up, please come inside."

Ji Xuewei's personality is very bright and familiar, she looked at Gu Mingluan slyly, "Then tell me, who is better looking, me or you?"

Gu Mingluan was taken aback for a moment. At this time, of course, it is polite to praise the other party for being more beautiful, but for some reason, she always feels that this question is a bit difficult to answer.

If Ji Xuewei was good-looking, anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was not as good as him.

If the answer is truthful, there is also the suspicion of boasting.

Gu Mingluan was very annoyed, how could there be such an ignorant guest.

Seeing that Gu Mingluan was silent, Ji Xuewei waved her hands jokingly, "Look, I was just telling you a joke, and you really want to have sex."

Ji Xuewei introduced to Mrs. Yuanshuang beside her, "This is Gu Aman's sister, who is a compatriot of the same mother. She is smart and beautiful. My elder brother likes it very much. Maybe she may become my sister-in-law in the future."

Ji Xuewei's voice was not loud, but all the wives who were nearby heard it clearly.

The eldest prince's concubine has been on the minds of many people for a long time. Although they have heard of the faint storm between the fifth lady of the Gu family and the eldest prince before, but now it has been confirmed.

After all, this person is still the Great Empress.

How is this different from a certainty?
Madam Yuanshuang was indeed, looking at the big Gu Mingluan in front of her and frowned imperceptibly, "Go in."

Mrs. Zhou welcomed the people in with a smile on her face. The hibiscus tassels hanging from Ji Xuewei's head shone brightly in the sunlight, and the light hurt Gu Mingluan's eyes.

She was turned down by Mrs. Yuanshuang?
After only meeting once.

Thinking about the short moment just now, Gu Mingluan couldn't figure out how Ji Xuewei did it, but she knew very well that it must be Ji Xuewei who was behind it.

Zhou took time out of her busy schedule to turn around and call Gu Mingluan's name. Gu Mingluan restrained the expression on his face and followed.

"Madam Yuanshuang actually came to the banquet, it's really a good fortune for me to take care of the family."

Mrs. Gu came out of the inner hall with the support of Gu Aman.

Gu Aman is unwilling to come here, but there are some things that cannot be avoided.

The past is the past.

Now that Liu Xuanzhi is doing well, she and Mrs. Yuanshuang only met once.

Now they have no conflict.

At least—for now.

"Normal mind, normal mind..." Gu Aman kept silently brainwashing himself in his heart.

The effect was quite effective, even if the slightest emotion leaked, Mrs. Gu who was closest to her thought she was nervous, and even patted her hand comfortingly.

Mrs. Gu is getting old, and her hands have begun to attach spots on the skin of the old man after she got old. The skin on the back of her hands is particularly thin, which makes the blood vessels attached to the bones stand out.

But the palm that was trying to comfort him still carried the familiar warmth of ironing.

Gu Aman looked sad, her grandmother was really old.

She raised her head and forced a smile, but the smile was only for a moment, and Gu Aman noticed something was wrong.

Originally, it was common for the master to go out to greet guests, but she clearly felt that her grandmother was obviously stunned when she saw Mrs. Yuanshuang.

Even the palm that comforted him was visibly tightened a lot.

Not only her.

Gu Aman looked towards the opposite side, even though Mrs. Yuanshuang concealed it well enough, her shocked gaze could not deceive anyone.

Grandma knew Mrs. Yuanshuang?
This cognition simply overturned all Gu Aman's imagination.

These two people were supposed to be irrelevant existences, how could they know each other?
If the two of them knew each other...

Then when she was imprisoned in the Liu Mansion in her previous life, did her grandmother also know...

The next banquet seemed to be unimportant, Gu Aman looked at her grandmother who was close at hand, could it be what she thought?

Grandmother knew Mrs. Yuanshuang back then, and she could stand up for herself to avoid such a fate, but why...she never heard from grandma?

Thousands of accumulated sand castles seem to be indestructible, but as long as a wave of truth hits, the house will be destroyed.

"Aman, what's wrong with you?"

Sensing that Gu Aman's expression was wrong, Mrs. Gu made a sound in time, just as Xia Chun took the white fungus sweet tea that was brought up from below, and realizing that the master was in a daze, she quickly tugged at Gu Aman's sleeve while the tea was being served.

Only then did Gu Aman come back to his senses.

She took the sweet tea and blew it lightly, and after taking a sip, she smiled and looked up, "I forgot to eat in a hurry before going out, and I will see the sweet tea, and I will know that I am hungry."

"Grandmother has delicious snacks, if there are any, don't be stingy and bring me a few more."

Seeing that she was fine, Mrs. Gu laughed, "You little monkey, how dare you entertain your grandmother."

As soon as the words were finished, someone from below brought up various snacks. Gu Aman took a quick glance and found several flavors of snacks that he usually liked.

I couldn't help feeling warm in my heart, "In this world, it's really my grandmother who loves me the most."

"Look, auntie, it's marble cake."

Ji Xuewei pointed to a piece of dim sum on the plate, she was very happy, "My concubine made this dim sum for me before, I heard that it used to be specially served in the palace, but I don't know why it can't be eaten in the palace now."

This cloud stone cake is different from the dim sum. Others hide the stuffing in it, but he is different. One puff pastry and one filling. Very pleasing to the eye.

Even Mrs. Yuanshuang, who didn't touch these things so quickly, picked up a piece and took a bite.

Mrs. Gu looked at Ji Xuewei with a pleasing expression, "Just now I heard that a lady called the noble Di Ji. The old woman came from a remote area and is not very familiar with the capital. May I ask who is the concubine Di Ji?"

Mrs. Zhou returned from the side, "This imperial concubine's mother and concubine is Mrs. Ru who just returned to Beijing."

"what……"

Mrs. Gu's pupils shook, and the dim sum she just picked up fell back to the plate with a "bang"...
