Value peace

Chapter 271

Gu Xiyan's mind began to spin rapidly.

When Qi Maosheng just "died" his wife, Xizhao didn't say that he would give her a marriage, and when he got married, Xizhao didn't have such a plan either...how could he suddenly marry the princess to Maosheng for no reason...for no reason ?There is nothing in the world for no reason...

Gu Xiyan took a deep breath, and calmly ordered Siping: "You go and invite me the third master!"

Siping went away in response.

"Wait," Gu Xiyan called Siping back again, "No matter what method you use, call the third master. You just say, if he doesn't come, I will take Brother Tun to He County to find him Second brother go!"

"Hey!" Siping respectfully responded.

Having said that, is it really impossible to take Brother Tun to He County to find Maosheng?Besides, Maosheng may be confused about this matter, and he doesn't know what to say!

Gu Xiyan slowly sat on the kang, and Tun, who didn't know why, expressed her dissatisfaction towards her mother, "Huh, huh, huh, huh?"

Gu Xiyan looked at his eyes that were as clear and pure as mountain streams, the clutter in her heart became simple as if washed away, and her restless heart calmed down.She couldn't help but smiled and hugged Brother Tun: "Little fool, do you know that you are now a general of the third rank..." At this point, she said with emotion, "It's really a wife like clothes, look, your old man You are showing off your power outside, and your son has been promoted to a noble, but your mother will be regarded as a yellow-faced woman..."

Brother Tun grinned at his mother, wringing his little fat fingers.

On the white and tender little hands, there are small fleshy nests blooming.

Gu Xiyan kissed that little meaty hand with a "pop".

Brother Tun laughed "giggle".

Qi Xiao smiled wryly and entered the gate of the Liyuan.

Seeing Chunxiu standing outside the house as an errand, she first made a gesture of silence, and then tiptoed to the eaves to listen to the movement.

He didn't hear his sister-in-law crying, but his ears were filled with the laughter of Brother Tun.

Qi Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and then let Chunxiu go in to report.

Chunxiu quickly lifted the curtain for him and invited him in.

When Qi Xiao entered the room, she saw Gu Xiyan sitting on the kang teasing Brother Tun, the expression on her face was gentle and sweet, peaceful and soothing, she didn't look like she was angry or crying.

His heart calmed down again.

Seeing Qi Xiao coming, Gu Xiyan hurriedly asked Tao Zhi to show Qi Xiao a seat, and handed Qi Xiao a cup of tea with her own hands.

"Tell me, what happened?"

Qi Xiao looked at Gu Xiyan's bright and agile eyes, and the excuses she thought up along the way suddenly became so hypocritical.He was silent for a while, and then said briefly: "The war in Xizhou is very tight in the imperial court, and I am afraid that the second brother will take the opportunity to join hands with Shen Shiya to carve up Liang's land, so I marry the princess, canonize the first son, and show my favor to the second brother."

Gu Xiyan pondered and said: "I'm afraid it's not just that simple! If we accept the marriage offer, we will also accept Xizhao's solicitation. At this sensitive time, it is tantamount to expressing our position, and we are bound together with Xizhao. In a chariot. Besides, the other party is here as a flat wife, so there will be a lot of troubles..."

The little sister-in-law is just as the second brother said, she is really smart!
Qi Xiao nodded in agreement: "Because of this, I not only sent someone to send a letter to the second brother telling him to return to Yongzhou quickly, but also recruited the elders in the family to discuss this matter. This is not just the second brother's private matter, This is a major matter that concerns the life and death of our Yandi and our Qi family. I am just worried about the second sister-in-law...in case..." Having said that, he looked at Gu Xiyan worriedly, "I will be wronged at that time!"

Gu Xiyan just nodded lightly, without saying anything for a long time.

It is no longer Qi Maosheng's decision whether to be wronged or not, nor is it Gu Xiyan's decision.

The two sat in silence for a while, Qi Xiao got up and said: "Second sister-in-law, if there is nothing else, then I will go to Qinyuan... I have someone report letters to all the government offices, and wait for the second brother to come back. , let’s discuss this matter.”

Gu Xiyan pondered: "Does anyone else know about this?"

"It hasn't been spread yet!" Qi Xiao said, "However, I guess it won't be long... Even if we don't tell it, there's no guarantee that the other party won't tell it either."

"Did the imperial envoy come with only these two decrees this time? Didn't the jade official say anything?"

Qi Xiao was stunned: "Is Yuzhi there? No, why did he get involved."

Gu Xiyan raised her head and looked at Qi Xiao, her eyes suddenly sparkled like gems: "You let people spread the news... Regarding the matter of the imperial court offering the marriage master, spread the news. Then let people spread the news." Stare at Peanut Alley to see if there is any movement over there!"

After thinking for a while, Qi Xiao immediately understood Gu Xiyan's meaning: "Sister-in-law, do you want to test Yuzhi's reaction?"

Gu Xiyan nodded: "Since the court granted the marriage to the Lord, and did not make any form of compensation to Qi Yuzhi, I think, with Fang Shaoqin's intelligence, he should be able to guess that they are already abandoned children of the court. Already... They should think of a way to confirm this news! In this way, Yuzhi can give up his heart and become his young master of the Qi family... After all, they are connected by blood, so why bother to meet in battle? to the extent!"

Qi Xiao's face was serious: "Sister-in-law is right, leave this matter to me!"

* * * * * *
After seeing off Qi Xiao, Gu Xiyan sat in a daze for a while.

If you say you have no idea, Gu Xiyan feels a little annoyed; if you say you are worried, it seems that there is nothing to worry about, Maosheng is a person, and she can be trusted...

What Gu Xiyan didn't expect was that the news spread so quickly.

Early the next morning, before Gu Xiyan woke up, Mrs. Wei appeared in front of her bed with a pale face: "The matter of giving the marriage, is it true?"

Gu Xiyan hurriedly put on a jacket and sat up, said: "I just mentioned it, as for the final outcome, I have to wait for the master to come back before making a decision."

Mrs. Wei smiled coldly: "If Maosheng dares to agree, you can give him a cry, make trouble, and hang himself... Don't worry about his face... Let me tell you, if you have a stepmother, you will Hou Laozi, we, Brother Tun, can't live by looking at the faces of other women..."

As she was talking, Brother Tun had heard his grandmother's voice and turned over and sat up under the quilt, smiling and humming at Mrs. Wei.

Mrs. Wei's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she pulled the corner of the quilt to cover Brother Tun: "Brother Tun is the eldest son of the Qi family, and he is going to inherit the title. He is the heir of the Duke of Yan... you are If you die, you have to secure that position for me, and you have to wait for the day when our elder brother Tun grows up to be a prince!"

Gu Xiyan looked at her body exposed to the cold air because Mrs. Wei pulled the quilt away, and couldn't help but smile wryly.

Stepmother and stepfather, speaking of it, I and Maosheng are not married!
Mrs. Wei looked at Gu Xiyan's absent-minded look, and yelled: "Did you hear that?"

Gu Xiyan nodded hurriedly: "I heard it, I heard it... But, Maosheng is not that kind of person, so don't worry about it!"

Mrs. Wei was furious: "He doesn't want to, but is it possible for him not to think about it? Can you think about it? When Ye Zisu married in, didn't the family know what was going to happen? , isn’t there no other way? Quickly pinch Brother Tun’s milk, take good care of your body, and raise another child before that woman enters the door... Do you understand me!”

Gu Xiyan just smiled wryly and nodded again and again, but she kept muttering in her heart: It is useless to say these things, the most important thing is whether Qi Maosheng has the ability to fight against Xizhao now... If not, then this marriage is imperative up...

Thinking of this, Gu Xiyan let out a cold "hum" in her heart.

Even so, she still has to fight Xi Zhao!
As soon as Mrs. Wei left, Mrs. Han came.

Seeing Gu Xiyan's calm demeanor, she couldn't help but startled.

Gu Xiyan has always respected Mrs. Han and never socialized with her. She said with a smile, "This is not a family matter. I just cry and make a fuss."

Han felt relieved: "It's good that you know. However, you have to be prepared."

Gu Xiyan smiled and said: "What are you ready for... Dexin Courtyard is still empty, anyone who wants to live in it can live in it! But if Maosheng dares to step in, I will break his leg." After finishing speaking, I also thought it was funny, and laughed hahaha.

Seeing her relaxed face, Mrs. Han couldn't help sighing.

Gu Xiyan left Han Shi for breakfast.

Han Shi hesitated to speak several times.

Gu Xiyan laughed and said, "Sister Han, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Han thought for a while, then smiled and said, "It's okay! I'm just a little worried about you."

Gu Xiyan covered her mouth and smiled: "Sister must be doing it for the sewing team... It can be seen that I am like this now, and it is hard to say it... If it is Sister Liang, I am afraid that it will be early when I can still help. Just pull me to talk about this..."

Han Shi hurriedly said: "Liang Zhangzhu is not such a person..."

Gu Xiyan sighed, and said: "Sister, I don't mean to blame Sister Liang. It's just that, like her, is a typical businessman and can make our sewing team bigger... as long as we can provide them with A job that makes money solves their temporary urgent needs and helps them get through this hurdle for the time being. Hedong in 30 years and Hexi in 40 years. Confidence, being able to live strong, that's enough."

Han Shi nodded straight, and said, "I'm here to discuss with you about this matter."

"Sister Han, please tell me."

Han groaned and said: "This hurdle has to be divided into those who can pass and those who cannot. It is precisely because they cannot pass that they join our sewing team. Those children cannot study because they have no money. Two, you can’t learn crafts, and three, you don’t have the capital to do business, let alone buy land... Even if you grow up, you can only do coolies to live, what’s the difference from now.”

Gu Xiyan's heart moved, and said: "Then sister Han means..."
