Splendid spring returns

Xin Nian smiled and said: "It's actually snowing outside. I'm afraid the weather will be colder this year. It's only been a few days since winter."

Gu Changting smiled and said: "The auspicious snow heralds a good year, but the heavy snow is raging, and I don't know how many people will suffer. Now that Jiaru has gone back, you should be in charge of this house. Just take advantage of this moment to get thousands of silver." Come out and buy some food, cloth and cotton, and wait until the middle of winter. Once there are disaster-stricken areas around the capital, you can have people open a few porridge factories and distribute some cotton clothes."

Xin Nian said: "That's all. It's just that Sister Xian has just tasted the sweetness of being the master of the family. Am I going to take it away? Don't you want to chill her heart? She can also arrange all these things, so I am happy and free."

"Her heart gets cold when it's cold, otherwise I'm afraid she'll be too eager, which is not a good thing. When I returned to Beijing this time, I heard people talking on the street, saying that our house was outrageous, and she turned out to be the daughter who had returned to her parents' house to stay. The head of the house has kicked out the original head of the house, and there are still some bad things to say about her, so she feels chilled and wants to move out as soon as possible."

"No one else has spread these words. They must have been spread by someone from the Liao Mansion."

Xin Nian helped Gu Changting take off his outer cloak. After hanging it up, he poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to her husband. Fang sat down and said with a smile: "You have a good plan. You used your sister to divorce your wife and leave the house. Then If I drive my sister out again, in the end, I will not be able to escape the crime of doting on my concubine and destroying my wife."

Gu Changting took a sip of hot tea, exhaled comfortably, and said calmly: "The eldest sister is also blinded by lard, and she doesn't even think about it. How can I allow her to be so arrogant in this house? I know it before I get to the second door. Now she has many teeth and claws in the house. As for doting on concubines and destroying wives..."

Speaking of this, he suddenly looked at Xin Nian. Xin Nian saw that his eyes were a little weird, and he couldn't help but put a look of caution on his face. He said warily: "You are bound to be up to no good if you look like this. Tell me honestly as soon as possible. How do you want to deceive me?" And me?"

Gu Changting smiled, spread his hands and said, "Am I such a bad person in your eyes? What do you mean by cheating on you?"

Xin Nian smiled "ha", rolled his eyes and said, "Don't ask me to spit on you. A guy who even takes advantage of his own sister has the nerve to say that he is a pure and honest gentleman."

"This is different. Doesn't my sister also want to use me?" Gu Changting waved his hands and said disapprovingly: "If she wasn't too greedy, would she be so obsessed with the authorities? But I am the prince now, and she has nothing to do. If she It’s the prince who treats me like this.”

After speaking, he smiled and said, "I'm just curious. Did you help your cousin to speak up that day? Why did Brother Fan say that he and his brother and sister would move to Qingliang Pavilion?"

Xin Nian was drinking tea. When he heard these words, he couldn't help but be stunned. Then with a "pop" sound, a mouthful of tea spurted out.She hurriedly wiped off the water stains on her coat with silk, and said in a voiceless voice: "What did you say? Brother Fan is moving here with his brother and sister?"

Gu Changting nodded. Seeing Xin Nian staring at him suspiciously, he hurriedly raised a hand and said, "It has nothing to do with me. I thought Brother Jiang would be twelve after the Chinese New Year, and he could live in a separate courtyard with his younger brothers and sisters." , it’s better to spend the winter in Shouning Palace, but Brother Fan took the initiative and said that they want to move to Qingliang Pavilion."

Xin Nian recalled the conversation with the young masters and girls that day, and said decisively: "No need to ask, they would take the initiative to bring up this matter, it must be to take revenge on me. In order to get grandma to leave the house on her own initiative, I helped Sister Xian. I said a lot of harsh words, and they hate me in their hearts." After saying that, he said to Gu Changting: "My dearest son, Mo Ruofu, you know very well what kind of arrogant character these children have developed in front of grandma. They are no better than Brother Feng. , helpless and sensible, I feel pity when I see them. I think your previous arrangement is very good. You can live in Shouning Palace for one winter, and then you can move back to their original yard next spring, even when they are older. , and they can also be allowed to see their mother several times a year."

Gu Changting smiled calmly and said leisurely: "It doesn't matter whether Mr. Liao will still be there by then."

After finishing speaking, he sighed, looked at Xin Nian and said: "I feel guilty about these children. I have been busy with government affairs and did not teach them well. I allowed my mother and Jiaru to dote on them endlessly. I thought they were being raised and useless in the future. They won't have any future, they just rely on the palace to live a life without worries about food and clothing. But listening to Brother Fan say this, they clearly have some experience..."

"Even if he is knowledgeable, he is also Brother Fan. The eldest young master and the eldest girl don't know what they are thinking. And I heard what Brother Feng said in the past, this Brother Fan is not old, but he is full of ideas. You let When they come over, do I still have to guard against them day and night? Can I do anything else? If you don’t want to leave this family to Sister Xian, should you leave it to Sister Gu and Aunt Qiu? Or leave it to Lady Yao? "

"Where will it be her turn? Chunhua and Fangrong are not up to the task, and you have to take the lead." Gu Changting finished drinking the tea and said thoughtfully: "Don't be so suspicious. No matter how clever they are, they can't do anything. There are several children, can’t you handle it..."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard someone say that food had been delivered from the kitchen, so he stood up and said, "Well, let me think about it again. I came back from such a troubled journey and didn't get anything to eat in the imperial study. I was just thinking about it." Hot meals and dishes at home just happened to come."

The couple left the Nuan Pavilion, and just as Aunt Qin also came out of the wing with the children, they came to the dining room and saw that a table was already full. In addition to carefully cooked home-cooked dishes, there was also a pot placed on the table. In the center, the steaming heat makes people salivate just looking at it.

So the family sat together, threw away all the worries in their hearts, and had dinner happily.

*****************
"It's unreasonable! I worked so hard, but in the end I just made a wedding dress for the Xin family. It's simply unreasonable. Changting is too much. He...he did this to my sister? He didn't want to think that without me, Liao Jiaru would be like that Are you going back soon? When the time comes, you'll be messing around with those little brats in front of him, and I'll see where he puts his face."

Yao Yutong lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, quietly listening to Gu Yunxian jumping around and losing his temper, sneering secretly in his heart.Suddenly seeing the other party turning to him, he said angrily: "Thanks to the incestuous relationship you had with Chang Ting when you were young, why haven't you taken advantage of it today? In the end, you still let that Xin Nian make a comeback?"

Yao Yutong sighed and said softly: "That day, Mr. Liao asked me to move to Yuehua Pavilion. I wanted to be close to the water, but the prince never went there. Later, my aunt only focused on fighting with Mr. Liao, how could I still cause trouble to you? Just I’m afraid that by now, the prince has forgotten me.”

Gu Yunxian was stunned. Yao Yutong's words were clearly blaming herself. She had previously thought that she had a chance to win, so how could she help Yao Yutong and set up a rival for herself? However, now it seems that Xin Nian is dormant in Qingliang Pavilion. She can return to the backyard at any time. She really has to support Yao Yutong and let her win Gu Changting's favor, so that she can completely suppress Xin Nian and then get rid of her.

Thinking of this, she had no choice but to suppress her anger, comfort Yao Yutong, and promise that she would put in a good word for her in front of Gu Changting, so that they could finally get married.
