Chapter 123 Abundant Conditions
Even though Gu Xi is not of the blood of the Hou family, she was also raised by the Hou family, and with her intelligence and the property in her hands, she has many ways out.

The best thing right now is to enter the fourth prince's mansion, and strive to let the fourth prince sit on the dragon chair and reach the sky in one step!
Therefore, regardless of what the old lady's eyes meant, Madam Hou took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and said directly to Madam Xie,

"I disagree. Although Xi'er is not my own, I raised her. I will definitely not let her be my concubine."

Mrs. Xie smiled when she heard this, "It is said that it is better to be kind than to be kind, and it is true that Madam loves Gu Xi so much.

However, madam, don't rush to refuse, first listen to my conditions.

Although we want to take Gu Xi as a concubine, we can consider that she is the adopted daughter of the Marquis Mansion, she is talented and well-known, and her reputation spreads far and wide.

This concubine is also a noble concubine, we will give the bride price, and there are also eight sedan chairs, but there are no banquets for guests.

Moreover, as long as Gu Xi can restrain my son and persuade him to make progress, then the relationship between our two families is that of in-laws, and we can move around and help each other.

After Gu Xi gives birth to a child, we will take her as a second wife, how about that? "

After Mrs. Xie finished speaking, the old lady's ugly face eased, and she even began to calculate whether it was worthwhile.

Being able to be in-laws with Xie's family is naturally due to their admiration. General Xie is the uncle that the emperor relies on, and he holds great power. This level of relationship is enough to make them tempted.

If General Xie is really willing to support one or two, maybe her son Zhongyihou can go one step further and become Minister of the Ministry of War.

And although being a concubine to the prince might lead to a better future, once the concubine fails, it will be implicated, which is also very dangerous.

It's better to rely on General Xie to be safe!
After all, no matter which prince ascends the throne, General Xie is the future uncle, and his seniority has a higher prestige.

"I heard that your son was in trouble a few days ago, is he really fine now?" The old lady was moved, so she asked tentatively.

If it is inhumane, how about leaving an heir, the value of Gu Xi's marriage is not great.

"My son is naturally fine!" Mrs. Xie said displeasedly with her face turning cold.

Of course, she also knew about the rumors outside, and this also hit Mrs. Xie's sore spot, but, as her son said, maybe Gu Xi can really cure her son and let him leave an heir.

Therefore, this Gu Xi must be his son's concubine.

"Is there any evidence for the conditions Madam just said?" The old lady asked again.

Madam Hou suddenly turned her head to look at her mother-in-law, unexpectedly she agreed.

Then Xie Hongbao is not a good man at all!
After listening to Mrs. Xie's words, she just wanted to piss her off. She couldn't manage her son well, but she still wanted Xi'er to help her educate her son. It's so funny!
"If the old lady wants to be on the safe side, I can also write a certificate." Madam Xie smiled, and directly believed that she agreed with Gu Xi to be her son's concubine, and then said,

"My son is not in good health recently, why don't we let Gu Xi go to the mansion to take care of him as soon as possible, and we will come to pick him up in three days."

"Madam Xie, we haven't agreed yet!" Madam Hou shouted with a sullen face.

Gu Rong, who was eavesdropping outside the door, heard her mother stop her, and clasped her hands angrily, her eyes widened.

My mother still loves Gu Xi very much, so it's no wonder that when Gu Xi came back, her mother became dissatisfied with her.

No, she must facilitate Gu Xi's becoming a concubine.

Gu Rong gritted her teeth, turned around and went to find her father. She felt that with her father's mercenary temperament, she must not be willing to give up the opportunity to develop a relationship with General Xie.

But Mrs. Xie didn't take it seriously when she heard Mrs. Hou's objection.

"Ma'am, you love your daughter so much, I can understand why you can't accept Tianjiao's daughter as a concubine for a while.

However, after all, Gu Xi is not of the blood of the Hou family. She is from a low family background, so she is destined to marry and not satisfy you. Why don't you think about the Hou family.

That is to say, my son has taken a fancy to Gu Xi, and she must be her, otherwise I wouldn't have given up my face to come here to make peace in person, and even showed such great sincerity.

If you really don't know good from bad, this Gu Xi will still become my son's concubine in the end, but the conditions are not so good. "

When Madam Hou heard the last threatening words, her face flushed with anger, she stood up from her chair abruptly, and was about to call to see the guests off.

"Sit down for me!" The old lady gave Mrs. Hou a hard look, "I'm still here, Xi'er's marriage is not for you to decide."

"Mom, we just removed Xi'er from the clan. To put it bluntly, we even canceled her household registration, so we can't control her marriage at all."

Mrs. Hou spoke, and gave her mother-in-law a veiled wink.

She prefers the Fourth Prince even more!
Being a concubine for the fourth prince, she also has a bright face, but what about Xie Hongbao?
She was ashamed to go out to the banquet, and she would have to bear a bad reputation of selling girls for glory!

Mrs. Xie was slightly taken aback when she heard this, and looked at the old lady and the others in surprise, "Since you can't tolerate her so much, then it's fine to be my son's concubine."

"Who says it can't! The Hou's family has raised her for 15 years. I asked her to be a concubine for the Xie family. I think she dares to say no!"

The old lady patted the table and said majestically.

When Mrs. Hou heard this, she couldn't help but not roll her eyes. You called Gu Xi over just now, but she refused, let alone being a concubine.

Do you think you are still Gu Xi's real grandmother!
Even if it's a relative, Gu Xi is not something you can handle. If you are not kind, she dares to be unfilial.

When Madam Xie heard this, she nodded secretly, feeling that she was safe this time.

"Since mother is so sure that Gu Xi will agree, let's call her over and ask.

The daughter-in-law is really worried, if we annoy her and she resorts to other means to make those businesses cut off our shop's goods, then our family will have to pay for it. "

Madam Hou saw that it was useless to stop her, so she directly left the matter to Gu Xi to deal with, but she just mentioned a little bit to the old lady that the financial power of our family is in Gu Xi's hands.

The old lady understood, but she was also very angry.
"What nonsense! Those commercial firms do business with her for the sake of our Houfu's face, how can she not be able to control her like a girl, let alone she is not the eldest daughter of our Houfu now!

You reminded me that the shops under Gu Xi can be taken back by her. How can she hold so many shops as an adopted daughter. "

"My mother is very capable, go and talk to those merchants yourself, a daughter-in-law is not capable of that."

Madam Hou lowered her head, as if she couldn't do it herself.

When the old lady heard this, she almost recited it angrily, her face was gone!
Mrs. Xie is still watching.

Mrs. Xie was not surprised when she heard the conversation between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it was spread all over the place.

She naturally knew that Gu Xi was in charge of the house, and also knew that the Zhongyi Hou Mansion had been flourishing in the past few years, and it was all managed by Gu Xi.
