Chapter 4 Dark Irony
But when he was about to get into the carriage, he looked back at Nian Xiang.

Wang Si thought that Nianxiang would stand up for his master, so he would be stunned at this moment, but when he didn't want to turn around, there was no one there.

In such a hurry to leave?
Wang Si touched the tip of his nose, bent down and got into the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Shen Qiuhe raised the curtain of the carriage and looked at the sun outside, "We must arrive within an hour, lest the gang from the Ministry of Justice take the vanguard."

Shen Qiuhe frowned slightly, and confessed to Wang Si that it was the case at hand, and now the relationship between Dali Temple and the Ministry of Criminal Justice is becoming more and more tense, and whenever there is a case that needs to be handled together, it is necessary to compete.

Seeing Shen Qiuhe's focus on his official duties, as if he didn't take what happened just now to his heart, Wang Si sighed slightly, he couldn't say anything else.

The cyan carriage galloped outside the gate of the Hou's Mansion, as if there was some kind of scourge in the Hou's Mansion, and if he didn't leave, he would be eaten.

On the other side, Mrs. Gu rushed over after getting the news, the people below had already given Ning Shunhou soup to sober up, and now Ning Shunhou had already settled down to sleep.

Mrs. Gu went to the inner room to take a look, seeing that Ning Shun was sleeping soundly, she gave Ning Shun a sneaky look, and then sat in the outer room with Qiao Guxin.

"I heard from the people below, that kid Qiuhe is here?" Sitting on the main seat, Mrs. Gu couldn't help asking.

Next year her daughter is going to get married, Gu Shi always feels uneasy and wants to watch Shen Qiuhe more carefully.

Qiao Guxin took the tea from the subordinates and placed it in front of Mrs. Gu, "Maybe it's because I still have official business. When my daughter came, Mr. Shen had already left."

Hearing this, Gu frowned unconsciously.

According to the rules, the Shen family does not have a master who entertains outsiders, and ordinary female family members usually avoid them, but Shen Qiuhe is different after all, he is a junior, since he visits the house, he always has to greet the old lady before leaving.

The young people next to them who are about to get married always have to meet each other when they get a chance. Mrs. Gu doesn't like such a frivolous gesture, but such indifference makes people feel very uncomfortable.

On weekdays, the two parents deal with each other, and they don't know much about Shen Qiuhe.Especially four years ago, the Duke's Mansion was shocked by the big changes, and the child lived in a simple place and had few chances to meet each other.

It's just that my daughter is not married yet, so I can't choose this reason, so I can only be bored in my heart.

Looking at Gu's expression, Qiao Guxin understood what her mother was thinking, and just smiled beside her, "The emperor's life is in his body, most of them can't help themselves."

Qiao Guxin was naturally used to Shen Qiuhe's behavior today.

Human feelings are cold and warm, Shen Qiuhe never pays much attention to his wife.

Hearing Qiao's sincere words to defend Shen Qiuhe, Gu's face softened slightly, "I haven't married yet, so the water has been splashed clean."

While the couple were talking, they heard movement in the yard outside, looked through the bead curtain, and saw the people below helping the old lady come over.

The couple got up immediately, but this morning the old lady had just taken away Qiao Xunfeng's right to discipline, Gu's heart was not happy, and she didn't even have a forced smile when they met.

After meeting with the old lady, the old lady also went in to take a look at Ning Shunhou, and walked out after a while.

The old lady also looked at her daughter-in-law's complexion, so she didn't ask any questions, she just looked at Qiao Guxin, "Your father is also, he is such a big man, and he still loses his composure."

Knowing that it was Qiao who persuaded Mrs. Gu deliberately and did not let her go back to her mother's house, she was always gentle when she spoke.

Qiao Gu smiled heartily, "It's a rare indulgence, and it doesn't hurt."

I can't really speak ill of my father.

The old lady was just talking casually, she never really wanted to discuss the right and wrong of the elders with the younger generation, chatted a few words, and asked Shen Qiuhe again.

It's not a trivial matter for my uncle to come to the door in the future.

Qiao Guxin replied to the old lady what she had said just now.

The old lady's face was slightly cold, but she didn't say much else, "You eat the king's salary, worry about the king's affairs, that kid Qiuhe has a bright future."

Having said that, the old lady paused, and then said, "This man is supposed to run around outside, and our women take care of the inner house. Sister Xin will get married next year, so I'm thinking about hiring someone from outside." Mammy teaches a thing or two, are you watching?"

In the end, he had a word with Gu Shi first.

The noble daughter of this aristocratic family has been taught by a female teacher since she was a child, but this daily homework is still different from the way of running a family.

Mrs. Gu bowed her body, "I made my mother bother, but this sister-in-law is smart. Just looking at knowledge, these children in the family are really no match for sister Xin. As for the head of the house, since the new year, the daughter-in-law has been I have taught Sister Xin how to look at the account books, the Duke’s mansion is small, and there are not so many things to do with others, so my daughter-in-law is thinking about asking Mammy to come over to teach me when winter comes."

Gu Shi blocked her back with a smirk, Qiao Guxin taught how the old lady should know, Qiao Guxin was not in a hurry to find the nanny, but Qiao Xingfeng who entered the mansion today was in a hurry.

Originally, Mrs. Gu made a fuss about going back to her mother's house today, but now that she doesn't go back, letting others see her lowered her bottom line, and the old lady made an inch of it again.

The old lady was refuted, her face was slightly dark, her lips were tightly pursed, and she let out a long snort.

Qiao Guxin pretended not to understand the deep meaning of the words, just sat quietly, waiting for Nianxiang to come in, and then seemed to come back to his senses, "What are you carrying in your hand?"

Nianxiang saluted the three masters first, and then reported, "If you want to return to the girl, the servant will send Mr. Shen away. Mr. Shen explained that the old lady should not be offended by the haste and impoliteness of coming today. Mr. Shen bought two jars of honey to express his affection."

After hearing Nian Xiang's words, the old lady's face softened, "That child has a heart."

Mrs. Gu glanced at the two jars of honey beside her, feeling a little dissatisfied with this future son-in-law in her heart.

Originally, he was supposed to be kind, but he didn't choose the right gift. The old lady is getting old, and these sweet and greasy things should be eaten less.Even if it is used, it is usually hot in winter. Elderly people like to cough, and use some honey to moisten the heart and lungs in the morning. What do you send it in this season?
However, Gu's mind flashed, it is naturally inappropriate to give this gift at this season, but Shen Qiuhe works in Dali Temple, so his thoughts should be meticulous, what if this gift is intentional?

Gu's gaze involuntarily looked towards the back room, then chuckled lightly, and said something along the lines of the old lady, "That child really has a heart."

Seeing Gu's smile, the old lady also felt something was wrong, honey, bee?phoenix?
Ning Shunhou came back after drinking, so a drunk person would naturally not know what to say and what not to say.

Could it be that you told the future son-in-law about this dishonorable matter?

It is said that family ugliness should not be publicized, even the old lady is not willing to disturb the Prime Minister's Mansion, let alone the Duke's Mansion.

He is also a very old man, so it's fine to talk nonsense in the mansion, but now he is talking nonsense in front of a junior, it's not too shameful.

It's all because of that vixen who has no sense of propriety.

At this moment, the old lady only felt a burning pain on her face.
