Chapter 184 The Mountain Rain Is Coming
"Meizi, that damned girl, actually asked someone from the fourth concubine to scold me, I can't live!"

Mrs. Gu Sun sighed softly, "Mother, just save yourself trouble, Meizi has been benevolent enough to us, and now she earns the money to build the house. You have a yard, what do you not want to be satisfied with? Meizi went to the capital this time, and brought you back clothes, which are high-quality silkworms and silk. Li Zi, isn’t that enough to be filial to you? Just the tael of silver that Meizi subsidizes you for a month is already quite a lot. You are so partial to Zhaodi, so it can be seen that Zhaodi has been filial to you as a big son?”

Although Mrs. Gu knew in her heart that the eldest daughter-in-law was telling the truth, she still insisted, "That's Zhaodi. If Zhaodi is rich, can she not show filial piety to me?"

Seeing that the old lady refused to enter, Mrs. Gu Sun could only sigh, turned and left her mother-in-law's room.

Mrs. Gu cried for a while, and seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law ignored her, she felt bored, so she stood up and went back to the kang to sit against the head of the kang.

However, Gu Qingmei and the Fourth Prince looked at the design drawing of the academy and thought it was pretty good. She was good at jewelry design, but knew nothing about garden design and house design. Just looking at this picture, she felt that it looked a bit like a Grand View Garden.

The entire academy covers an area of ​​[-] acres, with carved railings and jade walls, gurgling streams, and the classroom for reading is in the center of the entire academy, in the shape of gossip. Between, and each building is different, just like exquisite Suzhou gardens.

The Fourth Prince said: "Because the recruited students are all ladies from official families, naturally they can't be too rough, so the residence is made more delicate."

Gu Qingmei nodded, "It's still the fourth concubine who is thoughtful, and I don't know when to start work?"

The fourth concubine said lightly: "We are raising money. It will cost at least five to sixty thousand taels of silver to build this academy. If we add trivial things at that time, it will cost 6 taels of silver." That’s enough, the imperial concubines and dukes’ wives are not rich, so it’s okay for them to get three or two thousand taels of silver, but it’s hard for them to ask for ten thousand or eight thousand taels all at once.”

Gu Qingmei pondered for a while, and said: "Fourth prince concubine, please forgive me, now is a good season to build a house, no matter what, the foundation must be laid first, otherwise, in winter, the ground will be frozen. There is no way to do it. If the concubines and wives of the state cannot afford so much money at once, it is better to let them pay in installments and ask them for a little every month, so that they will not have too much pressure. "

After listening to her suggestion, the Fourth Prince was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said: "Look at me, I'm so stupid, I'm really not as clever as you, such a good idea, why didn't I think of it?"

"The fourth concubine is just a fan of the authorities." Gu Qingmei said with a smile.

At this moment, a big servant girl came in from the outside, and said with a smile: "Fourth Prince's Concubine, Mrs. Bai's side is fighting again, and the quarrel is very lively."

The fourth concubine smiled lightly, "Let them quarrel, it's none of our business, as long as it doesn't come to our side. I went to Murong Villa today, you go and send someone to invite you and the young master over here. Said that Miss Gu is here."

"Hey..." The maid pursed her lips, glanced at Gu Qingmei with a smile, turned and left.

An hour later, the fourth prince came back with Murong Yu, and at the same time, he happened to meet Su Yan who had just returned from Gujiazhuang.

Seeing Su Yan get off the carriage, the Fourth Prince asked, "Why did you go to such a big sun?"

Su Yan didn't dare to hide anything, and said obediently: "Miss Gu is here, and she told the Fourth Prince that her grandmother wanted to marry her, but she was unwilling, so she asked the Fourth Prince to help. Her grandmother said that Miss Gu's marriage is up to the fourth prince and concubine to decide."

Seeing that Murong Yu hadn't finished listening, he walked towards the courtyard with a livid face, walking like the wind, and soon came to the inner courtyard, without waiting for anyone to inform, he entered the room by himself, without saying hello to the fourth prince and concubine, and went Standing in front of Gu Qingmei, staring at her with a sense of oppression, he gritted his teeth and asked, "Your grandmother wants to marry you?"

Seeing his angry appearance, Gu Qingmei smiled inwardly, but said with a serious face: "That's what she thinks."

"You agree?" The irritable voice had a faint aura that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind filled the building.

"Uh..." Gu Qingmei was afraid that if she continued teasing, she would be in bad luck, so she quickly shook her head obediently.

The fourth concubine smiled and said: "This girl came to me precisely because she didn't want to, she wanted me to stand out for her, talk to her grandmother, I just sent Su Yan to help me pass the message. You must have met Su Yan, and then came running after being half obedient."

Murong Yu's cool face suddenly flushed a little, and he couldn't help but glared at Gu Qingmei fiercely. This woman, who wanted to tease her on purpose, really deserved it.Moreover, for such an important matter, she did not come to him, but to the fourth princess, which made him feel uncomfortable.

The fourth prince then walked in slowly, "Cousin, you have become less and less calm recently. I found that as soon as things get to Miss Gu's side, your intelligence will return to when you were five years old."

"Fourth prince!" Gu Qingmei hurriedly got up to salute him, and then gave up her seat.

"Excuse me!" The fourth prince lifted up the hem of his long gown and sat down, his eyes seemed to glance to one side inadvertently, looking at the pair of sisters standing silently beside him. "These two are..."

Murong Yu was angry just now, and didn't notice the existence of these two people at all. He thought they were the servant girls of the fourth prince's concubine. At this time, when the fourth prince asked, he paid attention, but suddenly widened his eyes in surprise. eyes, and immediately cast doubtful eyes on Gu Qingmei.

Gu Qingmei winked at him mischievously, but didn't talk to him, she just called out: "Yue Leng, Qing'er, why don't you come over and see the Fourth Prince."

Su Yueleng and Su Chenqing hurried over, knelt down to the fourth prince with a plop, and said "I have seen the fourth prince", but they didn't dare to mention the incident at home.

Gu Qingmei didn't mention their family's affairs, but said: "These are two available people I found, and they both have kung fu."

The fourth prince's pupils couldn't help flickering, "Female guard?"

"Yes!" Gu Qingmei pouted as she said. "Fourth prince, you are not allowed to look at them beautifully, just let me go."

"Look at what you said, I'm not a pervert, I love one when I see one, I just think your method is good, why didn't I think of it before?"

The fourth concubine said at this time: "Master, I have something to do, and I want to ask my master for help."
