Chapter 733 Expected and Unexpected

Because the second room was frightened, the family rushed to express condolences, and the old lady also went to visit the second daughter-in-law and granddaughter in person with great concern.

Mrs. Gu strongly asked the sister-in-law to deal with the driver who was driving the carriage. If he hadn't neglected his duty, how could he have shocked the horse.

Even though the eldest lady felt that it was just an accident, the drivers who drove the carts for the eldest master were all good, and the draft horses that pulled the carts were also specially bred for work. Although she thought it was an accident, for the sake of the family On the way, he still agreed to his sister-in-law's request, and went to deal with the driver when he turned around.

Later, when Gu Yun returned home, after hearing the latest gossip, he exchanged a tacit look with Bai Kou.

Bai Banxian cut his mouth straight.

But since he had already decided to go to the theater, Gu Yun didn't say anything. When Gu Xu got home in the evening and heard about what happened to his mother and sister, he hurriedly invited Gu Jing and Gu Yun to the street for dinner, and asked them to talk to Yang again at the school tomorrow. Mi expressed his gratitude, Erfang will hold a banquet in the near future to thank the Yang family.

Both Gu Yun and Gu Jing agreed without hesitation, this matter is easy to talk about.

The three of them were eating wine on the street. In Liang Dashi's mansion, Yang Siyuan and his son Yang Mi were also the guests of Master Liang and Liang Zhongshan. Yang Mi told the whole story of the day and took out Gu Chan's lost handkerchief.

The next step is to introduce Yang Mi to Liang Zhongshan and Gu Xu through his current colleague relationship. If he really wants to marry Gu Chan, it is absolutely necessary to go the way of Gu Xu's brother-in-law. Take him down. Half of the marriage is settled, and the other half is to dispel their idea of ​​marrying Gu Chan to the clan. It is ironclad.

Yang Mi didn't care too much about who he would marry in the future. He already knew that his future wife must be helpful to his family. Go out and enter the prime minister, and become the pillar of the country.

With such self-confidence, he believes that even if his wife and the family behind him are relatively strong at the beginning, everything will change as he rises step by step.

What's more, if he marries Gu Chan, he won't suffer at all. Seeing him today, Gu Chan is indeed beautiful, and he himself is happy and satisfied. In addition, Gu Chan is the last daughter-in-law of Duke Ye's mansion, and her elder brother is a concubine. Ji Shi, who is under 25 years old now, is young and promising. As long as he himself passes the Jinshi examination next year, the two families will be more compatible.

No matter how you look at this marriage, there are many benefits, there is no reason not to grab it in your own hands.

A table of four men proudly calculated Miss Gu Wu who was eager to get married in Ye State Duke's Mansion. Liang Zhongshan and Yang Mi called each other brothers, one elder brother, one younger brother. In the end, both brothers drank a little too much. Mi still had to go to Fuxue to wait for the thanks from Gu Yun and Gu Jing, and then the banquet was over, and Yang and his son were sent to the guest room to have a good rest.

Liang Zhongshan staggered back to his own main room, Tong Mingli was convenient these few days, for the sake of the heir, the couple had to work hard, so Liang Zhongshan left from the beauties and came back to sleep for a few days.

Seeing that he was drinking like this, Tong Mingli first ordered the girl to prepare hot water, and personally took care of her husband to take a bath, and even deliberately distracted Lan Zhu, so that she would not listen to the couple's whispers.

The young mistress said so, and Lan Zhu didn't have such a thick skin and insisted on not leaving. It is common sense that the couple's boudoir is not happy to watch the fun with many girls, so the bathroom and bedroom were soon empty. Tong Mingli and Liang Zhongshan remained.

Sitting in the hot water, Liang Zhongshan was obviously too relaxed mentally. He thought it was Lan Zhu who was serving him, and proudly talked about the matter of arranging Yang Mi to marry Gu Chan. But because he was drunk, the cause and effect relationship was a bit confusing.

At first, Tong Mingli thought her husband was talking drunk, but when she heard it, she felt that something was wrong. Letting Yang Mi marry Gu Chan had a deeper political purpose. Her aunt's carriage lost control on the street, and it turned out that Yang Mi was among the crowd Because of the intentional disturbing of the small stones, and in order to prevent Gu Yun from having the energy to detect the flaws in this scene, Yang Mi's father Yang Siyuan even sent someone to find the villagers of Hedong Village who were gangsters in the capital in advance, and went back to the village to pick up troubles. , causing trouble for Gu Yun, distracting him from his family affairs.

And the reason why such a situation was spent so much is just to make a scene, a scene where a hero saves the beauty and acts bravely, just to let Yang Mi see Gu Chan in the most natural situation, this scene was a success Only then did the Yang and Gu families have the reason and opportunity to move around, and they could marry Gu Chan only when the time was right.

Tong Mingli was dumbfounded when she heard this, and suddenly felt that her husband in front of her was so strange. Although the husband and wife had a bad relationship, but as the beloved son of University scholar Liang, a well-known talent in the capital, and the favored minister of saints, Tong Mingli was full of love for her husband. She expressed admiration, but the drunken words at this moment completely subverted her previous understanding.

Liang Zhongshan wanted to introduce Yang Mi, the son of his father's student, to Gu Chan as her husband. Tong Mingli knew about this. In order to achieve their goal, they not only designed Mrs. Gu and Miss Gu Wu, but also dragged Gu Yun into the water. It was his business, so he deliberately made trouble for him, so that he could not be distracted, and would not notice the suspiciousness of Yang Mi's scene.

Fortunately, that Yang Mi is a talent with both civil and military skills, otherwise if he misses, he will hurt the crowd by startling the horse, and then it will be the government of Duke Ye who will be held accountable by the court.

During Liang Zhongshan's drunken narration, Tong Mingli clearly felt his hostility towards Gu Yun. Although she didn't know where this hostility came from, it did not prevent her from feeling a heavy uneasiness in her heart.

She felt scared. She never imagined that the father-in-law and husband, who had always been gentle and refined, would make such a dirty calculation, just to achieve their own goals, they could pull anyone into the trap, regardless of the safety of others, it was hypocritical and shameful.

The more Tong Mingli thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't calm down, and her breathing became heavy. Under the intense emotional agitation, Tong Mingli couldn't even hold her hand steady, so she had to throw down the bath towel in her hand in a hurry, and left temporarily under the pretext of getting some hot tea for her husband. Go to the bedroom and calm down.

Sitting on the stool, Tong Mingli covered her face with her hands. Mrs. Gu was her aunt, Gu Chan was her cousin, and Ye State Duke's mansion was her aunt and uncle's house, but Liang Zhongshan was her husband, so she suddenly knew such a shameful thing. She doesn't know what is the right thing to do, especially since Gu Yun is involved in this matter, he is the most innocent, so whether to tell her aunt or tell Gu Yun, or just keep silent, she feels that no matter what she chooses, I'm sorry for her own conscience.

After thinking about it, Tong Mingli felt that the only person she could tell was Ning Peilan. She believed that Ning Peilan would keep the secret and give her a good idea.

Thinking of this, Tong Mingli's mood miraculously calmed down. She picked up the teapot that was simmering on the table, poured a cup of hot tea for her husband, waited for him to take a bath step by step, and helped the sleepy Liang Zhongshan to the bed to rest. After he's settled down, call the girls in to clean up.

When Lanzhu came in, she saw that the master was already asleep, she didn't say anything, she just saluted the young mistress briefly, then quickly ordered the maids to clean up quickly, said good night, and retreated together.

Tong Mingli left her dowry girl to help her wash and rest, but hearing the sound of her husband's sleeping breathing, Tong Mingli tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. I thought I was frightened, but I didn't know that it was a play deliberately staged by others.

There is also Gu Yun, he is doing his business with great ambitions, but how could he know that the difficulties he is facing are caused by others intentionally making trouble out of nothing to make him feel uneasy.

Thinking of this made her heart ache so hard to breathe.

She didn't understand why such a method was used. She could have contacted him legitimately through Gu Xu, so why did she have to play like this.
