pampering wife

Chapter 28

Wei Li let out a "hmm", looked at Qingmei and Xiaoyuan, then looked at He Zilian next to him, but didn't know what to say, so he sat for a while and said, "Take care of it." Qingmei saw that he was leaving, Suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly asked: "Wei Sanlang, there is something I want to ask you. Who is that Gu Erlang that day?"

"Gu Changqing, Shaoqing of Dali Temple." Wei Li paused and added: "Don't worry, he won't talk nonsense."

What do you mean you won't talk nonsense!Qingmei was embarrassed for a moment, the meaning of Wei Li's words was... Duzui glared at Wei Li in annoyance, then saw him smile, and went out.

On the other side, Qingmei was worried.Gu Changqing, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, is not her cousin, what a coincidence!He witnessed the situation that day, and he wondered if it would be awkward to meet in the future.What's more, the three of their mothers went to Beijing early, but they haven't visited Mrs. Gu for a long time. If Gu Changqing mentions it at that time, wouldn't it make Mrs. Gu suspicious, thinking that she doesn't understand etiquette?

Qingmei sighed and lay down on the table, and He Zilian saw her face changing, so she asked, "Sister, what's wrong?"

"I have to visit a relative in a while, I'm worried. But what do you think Wei Li is here for? He won't really come to see my foot injury, right? He should come a few days ago to see."

He Zilian curled her lips: "Who knows. But you are really, you are still stared at by him when you go to the capital, why did you tell him where you live?" Although he knew Wei Li's status was precious, in He Zilian's heart, he was still the stalker Want to see He Zimo's annoying ghost.

"I didn't tell him!" Qingmei felt innocent.She also doesn't want to involve too much with Wei Li, okay, it's too depressing!Most likely Wei Li was bored and asked the driver that day.

When Mrs. Xu returned home at night, Qingmei told the story.Mrs. Xu was also a little worried after hearing this: "I don't know what kind of temperament this Gu Erlang is. If I accidentally say something, Mrs. Gu is careful, and we used to evade the excuse of not going to Beijing. I'm afraid she will be overwhelmed."

Qingmei couldn't bear to look at the sad face on Xu's face, she thought for a while and put on a sweet smile in front of her: "Mother, what are you worried about, who said we are avoiding her? Isn't this just preparing for the meeting ceremony, when the time comes To strike first, even if Gu Erlang said it, as long as Mrs. Gu thinks we have intentions, what can we say?"

Having said that, Mrs. Xu also looked away.But that being the case, the time to visit Mrs. Gu cannot be delayed for too long, Qingmei plans to go to Gu's residence after the fruit wine is ready.

A few days later, the news of Xu's entrusting someone to inquire also came over——

Gu Shangshu's parents are both in his hometown, and Gu Shangshu is involved in court affairs, so Mrs. Gu is in charge of Gu's house, and this Mrs. Gu is kind to others, and she is strict in her management, so the atmosphere in Gu's house is not bad.Mrs. Gu has fun in the house, and usually likes to listen to music and watch plays. She seems to like girls who are more lively and pleasant, but she also wants the other party to be knowledgeable, sensible, and know how to advance and retreat.

As for that aunt, it is said that her surname is He, and she usually lives in seclusion, and even her concubine is low-key and docile.The mother and son are very much loved by Gu Shangshu, but they seldom show off in the mansion, let alone cause disturbances.

Among Mrs. Gu's children, there is no need to worry about Gu Chang'an not being in the capital. Gu Changqing holds an important position in Dali Temple, and he is strict and cautious in his actions. He is known as the "iron face".The most eye-catching person in the entire Gu mansion is Gu Ronghua, the jewel in the palm of the Gu couple.

Gu Ronghua is 17 years old this year, with a bright and attractive appearance. His appearance is well-known in Beijing, but his temperament is a bit arrogant and self-willed.Because Mrs. Gu gave birth to two sisters at the time, but her sister died at the age of three, so the couple loved Gu Ronghua very much.Gu Ronghua is also smart, since he was a child, he knew how to read words and expressions, not to mention the love of his parents, even the noble concubines in the palace favored him.

According to gossip, in order to choose a concubine for the third prince Junli, Gu Ronghua was invited to the palace for a banquet, and he was spotted by the two concubines Wei Guifei on the spot, and wanted to marry her as the third prince's main concubine.

Gu Shangshu is an upright and diligent official, and has won the sacred heart. Gu Changqing is also a rookie in the court, and the Gu family is flourishing. All parties in this marriage are satisfied, except for the third highness, Junli——

It is said that it was March in Yangchun when the marriage was made, and Jun Li was still away on business, so upon hearing the news, he hurried back to the capital and rejected the marriage.But since this is what the emperor and concubines are in love with, how can they give up so easily?His Highness the Third Highness made a lot of noise in the palace because of this matter, but in the end he resisted the order with a stiff neck, and was severely criticized by the Holy Majesty.As for that Gu Ronghua, it is said that he has been depressed recently.

Of course, this was gossip, and Qingmei and her daughter couldn't believe it.But where there is no wind, there is no wave, I am afraid that this matter is not made up for nothing, just to be cautious, Qingmei decided to be more careful, and absolutely do not touch the scales of this arrogant and willful little cousin.

But what about the concubine born to Aunt He?The Xu family asked someone to inquire for a few days, but there was not much news that came out—although she was loved by Gu Shangshu, her personality was docile and silent, she lived in her boudoir all year round, and was easy-going and careful with others, completely different from the arrogant and bright Gu Ronghua .

Now that she has the bottom line in her heart, Qingmei is no longer as idle as before.Every day after exploring the liquor sales situation in the capital, he would study hard when he came back—no matter what reason Mrs. Gu brought her back to Beijing, or what she planned for the marriage contract, if Mrs. Gu could be pleased, at least the nanny and Xu Huaiyuan should be able to live together. better.
