Weilai left Four Seasons Villa and returned to the Yu family's old house in the city center.

He first went to report to the eldest lady Wei Zhuhua.

"Keke said that she wouldn't be able to survive these two days, but her medical skills are good. If she stays to take care of her, she can at least survive this year."

Wei Zhuhua was relieved when she learned that she could survive for another month.

As long as you can survive this year.

"cocoa?"

Weilai hurriedly explained: "She is my niece from far away. She graduated from Akihito Medical College and is quite accomplished in traditional Chinese medicine. To treat those two people, I naturally had to find someone I could trust, so I took it upon myself to find one. Madam, don’t blame me for being my niece.”

"Akihito Medical College, that is indeed a talent that can be developed."

Wei Zhuhua thought of something, "Find an opportunity to bring her to see me."

Wei Lai looked happy and agreed quickly.

After the others left, Wei Zhuhua looked out the window at the cold night.

On New Year's Eve, the time for family reunion, her husband couldn't come back either.

I saw him only a handful of times a year.

Everyone in the world knew that as the eldest lady of the Yu family, she lived a life of prosperity and honor. In fact, only she knew the hardships involved.

Thinking about the time when the Yu family was born in a mud-legged family, it was impossible to fit in among the rich and powerful in Jingzhou. Everyone complimented her in front of her because of her power, but many people mocked her behind closed doors, so Mrs. Yu thought of marriage.

The Wei family is a long-established aristocracy and has a high say in the elite circle in Jingzhou, so Mrs. Yu targeted the young lady of the Wei family.

The Wei family did not dare not agree, so she, a young lady of the right age, was pushed out for marriage.

Even if she has her heart set on something, she still has to sacrifice her life's happiness for the benefit of her family.

There is nothing wrong with marrying Yu Fusheng. He is handsome, considerate and has a successful career...

Is he handsome enough to eat?

His thoughtfulness is just a cover for hypocrisy.

As for the success of the career, the Yu family stepped on many bones to gain the glory.

When was the last time you saw him?
Oh, when she was sweeping her ancestor's grave during the Qingming Festival this year, he rested at home for a night. When she was sorting out his clothes, she found a lipstick mark on the collar of his shirt.

An ordinary wife might make a fuss and ask questions, but she just calmly took the shirt, washed it, ironed it and hung it back up.

If there is no hope, there will be no disappointment.

Without love, there is naturally no hate.

She didn't have so many extravagant hopes, so she would humble herself and beg for a man's pitiful love, changing herself beyond recognition.

It is enough to maintain the superficial dignity, watch her daughter grow up, and give her freedom within her capabilities.

In this deep house, she has a grandmother who is even more unreasonable than her mother-in-law, and a unruly and doted sister-in-law. Her husband is not around, so she can be said to be isolated and helpless. Many times she does not want to fight, but she knows that she cannot No more sitting around waiting to die.

Thinking of the conversation between Liu Qingdai and her grandmother during the day, she tightly clutched the scripture in her hand.

"Grandma, look at this Ruohuan. As soon as he goes out, he is like a bird returning to the mountains and forests. He is so happy that he doesn't even come back to accompany you on such an important festival as New Year's Day. I think this daughter's family has grown up and her heart has become wild. Don't be fooled in the end. I have been seduced by some unscrupulous man outside, which has disgraced the family tradition of our Yu family."

The old lady had a string of Buddhist beads hanging in her hand. She was dressed simply and was calm and calm after hearing the words.

"Speak straight."

Mei Qingdai rolled her eyes and said cautiously: "If you ask me, the best way is to arrange a marriage for her and let her feel at ease. The girl's family still needs to support her husband and raise her children."

The old lady raised her eyelids: "In your opinion, what kind of husband should she choose?"

"Ruohuan, you brought me up with your own hands, grandma. There is nothing to say about her appearance and character. She is the most outstanding among the ladies and ladies in Jingzhou. She is worthy of any young talent, but let me tell you, the best The best choice is Junzhe."

Mei Qingdai secretly took a look at the old lady. Seeing that she had no reaction, she continued: "Look, we have watched this kid Junzhe grow up. He is not inferior to the children of the nobles in that circle. Besides, he is still ours." As a boy from the third generation of the Mei family, there is a saying that the wealth should not go to outsiders. Grandma, do you think this is true? When Ruohuan marries Junzhe in the future, you also know the temper of my sister-in-law. No matter how kind he is, he will never let Ruo Huan suffer any injustice. Overall, Jun Zhe is Ruo Huan's best choice."

The old lady was just a wandering child begging on the street. If Master Mei hadn't been kind enough to take her back, give her a bite to eat, and teach her a skill to survive, she would have died on the street. Where are the opportunities later?

For some unexplainable reasons, she was sure that the old lady would not refuse. In order to preserve the long-term wealth of Mei's family, she had to finalize the marriage before the old lady kicked off.

"Jun Zhe? That kid is pretty good." Mei Luge nodded with satisfaction.

"Find an opportunity to bring him here and let me control him."

Mei Qingdai was overjoyed and quickly agreed.

When Wei Zhuhua thought about the conversation between the two, the anger in her chest could not be suppressed.

In ancient times, the Mei family was the lowest-ranking actor in the industry. They relied on the old lady to make a fortune.

Not only did she put an ignorant woman like Mei Qingdai, who had not read for two days, into the Yu family, she also wanted to marry her baby daughter to the Mei family, which Wei Zhuhua would never tolerate.

Her own life was already a tragedy. How could she watch her daughter embark on such a path again? A noble family like the Gu family and the Wen family could still enjoy a bit of dignity without seeking true love. But the Mei family, who lives in such a poor family, can still dream of marrying her daughter.

The Mei family advertises itself to the public as a family of opera and non-heritage inheritance, but this is all done to fool outsiders who don't know how to do it. For the sake of the old lady's sake, she is willing to give a little less favor. How can she not know the private virtues of the Mei family?

That's a mess.

Mei Qingdai had a good plan. She didn't believe that the old lady couldn't see it, but judging from the old lady's attitude, she was indeed considering it.

Wei Zhuhua's heart was completely cold.

If this matter is spread out, it will make people laugh.

She could even imagine how those people were mocking her and mocking her daughter behind her back.

Wei Zhuhua's eyes gradually became tough, she would never let Huanhuan go down that path.

"Zi Xun."

A maid walked in from outside the door: "Madam."

"Has the guest list come out for the Second Madam's plum blossom banquet?"

Zixun had already prepared the list and handed it to Wei Zhuhua.

Mei Qingdai was very ambitious this time, and almost all the prominent ladies in Jingzhou were invited.

Wei Zhuhua returned the list to Zixun: "Help me make an appointment with Mrs. Xu tomorrow."

Zixun thought for a while: "Mrs. Xu from the Cultural and Creative Association?"

Wei Zhuhua nodded: "Prepare another gift for me."

After a pause, Wei Zhuhua said: "Take out the century-old wild ginseng and give it to Mrs. Xu as a gift tomorrow."

Mrs. Xu's son was assassinated not long ago. Fortunately, he was rescued in time and was not seriously injured.

Zixun was a little surprised, but didn't say anything.

The eldest lady's mother's family is in the medicinal materials business, so the medicinal materials in her collection are naturally the best of the best. The century-old wild ginseng she brought out is naturally the best in quality on the market.

Logically speaking, as the eldest lady, it is impossible to take the initiative to make friends with someone of Mrs. Xu's status, unless the eldest lady wants something from the other person.

Zixun followed Wei Zhuhua and knew the wealth and connections of all the noble ladies in Jingzhou.On the surface, Mrs. Xu of the Cultural and Creative Association is just the wife of the chairman of a listed education group. This status is naturally not enough in front of the eldest wife.

Yet she also has an identity.

The ancient lady's niece.

This is very important.

The eldest lady is the only one in this world who can make the eldest lady take such painstaking preparations.

Thinking of the conversation she overheard with the eldest lady during the day, she instantly understood what the eldest lady was planning.

She felt in her heart that the eldest lady was really a good mother, and hoped that the eldest lady could understand the eldest lady's intentions.

Yunzhou, Qingxi Town.

Compared with the severe cold in Qingzhou, Yunzhou, which is adjacent to Chunzhou, is as warm as spring.

Although Qingxi Town is just a town, it is not backward at all.

Because here is the largest book printing center in the country, and its printing industry accounts for 70.00% of the country's total output value, not to mention using this industry to boost Yunzhou's GDP.

The person who controls the economic lifeline of Yunzhou is the Gu family of Qingxi Town.

Today is the 80th birthday of the old man of the Gu family. The governor of Yunzhou came to congratulate him personally, which shows the prestige of the Gu family in the local area.

Other ancient families also sent representatives to congratulate him on his birthday.

When the young man stepped through the threshold, the whole place was silent for a moment.

"This...is this Bichen?"

It was the birthday boy, Mr. Gu, who was the first to react.

The young man stood tall and tall, and stepped forward to greet me: "I have seen my grandpa, and I wish you a long life like the moon and a rising sun; a long life like the Nanshan Mountain, which never grows taller and never collapses; and a long life like the pines and cypresses. I wish you the best."

He speaks calmly and behaves openly, which really makes him stand out among his peers in the room.

"Okay, okay." The old man stood up and helped him up personally, his eyes filled with relief.

"Guangfeng embraces the spirit of jade and is not stained by the dust of the world. You are worthy of your grandfather's expectations for you. You are the future of our Gu family."

The young man smiled lightly, showing the demeanor of a gentleman who was neither sad nor happy.

Everyone was even more satisfied with him.

He is worthy of being a descendant cultivated by the Jingzhou Gu family.

Gu Bichen's arrival became the focus of the whole room. He was humble and low-key, but the old man refused to let him go and let him sit next to him.

"The last time I saw you, you were only 12 years old. You hadn't grown yet, and you were only as tall as me." The ancient man gestured to his waist.

"I have grown so tall in the blink of an eye." The old man lamented the passage of time.

"Grandpa, I have brought distinguished guests."

The girl's clear voice came from far away.

Everyone in the hall followed the sound.

The girl walking in front is no stranger to everyone. She is the granddaughter of the ancient master, Gu Yonghe, who is known as a talented woman.

Behind her is a bright girl in a purple skirt, with a gentle and dignified temperament. As soon as she appears, she makes people's eyes bright.

It's not the stunning appearance, but the arrogant and noble aura that ordinary people can't cultivate.

Gu Bichen frowned slightly when he saw the girl in purple clothes, and lowered his eyes calmly.

"Junior generation has met the ancient master. I wish you a prosperous sun and moon, and an everlasting spring for the pines and cranes."

After saying this, the bodyguard presented the congratulatory gift.

"I got this top-quality plum-blossom inkstone by chance. It's nothing more than cows chewing peonies in my hands. Mr. Gu is a well-known calligrapher. This inkstone can only be of maximum value in your hands. I borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha."

Someone exclaimed: "Could it be the Plum Blossom Duan Inkstone that was sold to a stranger at a sky-high price at the Hanhai auction not long ago?"

Hanhai Auction is a grand auction event in the scholar industry, among which inkstones are the most sought-after, and inkstones are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. With the closure of several famous pits, the collection value of inkstones is also getting higher and higher, among which the most collectible inkstones are The most valuable one is this Plum Blossom Duan Inkstone, which was sold at the auction for a sky-high price of tens of millions, which shocked the entire auction house.

It turns out that the one who was photographed was such a young girl, and she had such a good background.

The old man said lightly: "It's too expensive, I can't afford it. Since I'm here, I'm a guest. Yonghe, take good care of this girl."

Yu Ruohuan raised her eyebrows and walked straight to the seat next to Gu Bichen. Sitting in that seat was Gu Yonghe's eldest brother Gu Yinbo.

Gu Yonghe winked at his eldest brother, but he couldn't understand and sat motionless.

Gu Yonghe walked over quickly and pulled Gu Yinbo up, "Brother, I have something to tell you."

Yu Ruohuan naturally sat down at Gu Yinbo's position.

"That's mine..." Gu Yonghe covered his mouth and pulled him out.

The old man watched this scene and his eyelids twitched.

The drunken man does not mean to drink.

"Classmate Gu, we meet again." Yu Ruohuan greeted with a smile.

Gu Bichen lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Miss Yu, this is not a place for you to play around."

Yu Ruohuan held her chin with one hand: "I'm not joking. I really admire Mr. Gu's talent and knowledge, so I came to celebrate his birthday. Why, don't you believe it?"

Gu Bichen was too lazy to pay attention to her.

"Tell you a secret quietly." Yu Ruohuan approached Gu Bichen, and Gu Bichen frowned to avoid him. However, the seat was so big, there was no way he could avoid it, and it was not good to make too much noise.

In the eyes of everyone, the two of them looked intimate, talking and laughing, and there was something wrong with them at first glance.

"My second aunt is hosting a plum blossom banquet the day after tomorrow."

Gu Bichen lowered his eyes. The Yu family was extremely extravagant, especially the second bedroom.

Yu Ruohuan looked at the young man's face in front of her and said with a smile, "Can I invite you to participate?"

The young man refused without hesitation: "Sorry, I don't have time."

Yu Ruohuan raised the corners of her lips, "But what should I do? I also invited Shen Youan."

Gu Bichen suddenly turned his head, his gentle eyes suddenly turned sharp: "What did you say?"

Yu Ruohuan smiled and shook her head: "You men..."

She laughed so hard that she shed tears: "What kind of ecstasy soup did that bitch fill you with? Is it based on that face?"

Gu Bichen suddenly grabbed her hand: "What exactly do you want to do?"

"Don't you already know what I want to do when you came that day?"

She was like a poisonous snake with its tongue hanging out, and her eyes were full of madness as she swallowed her prey.
