Chapter 173 There is no doubt that it is her

Li Tao said: "I was extremely bored, so I went out for a walk. We happened to meet each other. How long did it take for you to arrive in the capital? How about I take you for a walk? How about it?"

 Gu Huayu looked up at the sky and said, "Let's make another date. I've been out for too long today and I have to go back. Let's make an appointment another day."

Li Tao wanted to let Gu Huayu go shopping because it was still early, but he was afraid that Gu Huayu would refuse, so he nodded and said, "Okay, where do you live? Where can I find you someday?"

Gu Huayu didn't want anyone to go to Zhuangzi, so she said, "I just arrived in the capital and my residence has not been decided yet. Li's residence is at Baokang Gate, right? I'll come find you another day. Okay?"

Gu Huayu blurted out the address of her house, which made Li Tao very happy.

He nodded and said: "Okay, you must remember to come and find me. Once you decide on a place to live, have someone send a post to my house first."

Gu Huayu nodded, "Okay, I've decided on a place to live, and I'll have someone deliver a letter to you."

 After saying that, Gu Huayu waved to Li Tao, turned and left.

After saying goodbye to Li Tao, Gu Huayu returned to Mingyue Pavilion on Yongchun Road.

Liu Guang saw Gu Huayu coming in and greeted him, "Miss."

Gu Huayu nodded towards Liu Guang and said, "Prepare the car and ask someone to take me back to Zhuangzi."

Liu Guang leaned forward and said, "Yes, miss, wait a moment, I will make arrangements right now."

 Gu Huayu returned to Mingyue Villa, first went to greet Wan and Gu Dechang, chatted with them for a while, and then returned to the study.

Hua Da and Su Er were already waiting in the study. When they saw her entering the room, they stood up to greet her.

Gu Huayu nodded and motioned for the two of them to sit down.

Gu Huayu looked at Hua Da and asked, "How is it? Have you found out?"

Hua Da bowed and replied: "I found out, the title deed of that land is now in Hua Ruiming's hands. Hua Ruiming has a big business now, so he may not be able to sell the land."

Gu Huayu put her hands on the armrests, leaned back and thought for a while, then said: "Go and find out Hua Ruiming's preferences, and then make a plan to get the land deed."

Hua Da’s eyes lit up, he nodded in agreement and said, “Miss, there are still many ways.”

Gu Huayu looked at Su Er, "Is the house tidied up?"

Su Er leaned over and said, "Well, everything is packed. I've asked Wang Qin to take Zhang Dongsheng and the others there first. We can move in directly tomorrow."

It’s just that the teacher who teaches Qiye is still two days late. Mr. Feng has not returned from traveling and said he will return to Beijing in the next few days. "

Gu Huayu nodded and said, "There's no rush. Brother Qi has just arrived in the capital. Let him get used to it for a few days. Tomorrow you can take Brother Qi and Da Zhuang around the capital."

Su Er nodded in agreement, "Okay, I understand."

Gu Huayu took a sip of tea and then said, "Today I went to Magnolia Lane."

Hua Da and Su Er looked at Gu Huayu in surprise, waiting for her to continue.

Gu Huayu told the two of them what happened today. Finally, he said: "It seems that Chen Xue is not doing well."

Hua Da clenched his fists and lowered his head. Su Er glanced at Hua Da, turned to Gu Huayu and said, "I have discussed this with Brother Zhe many times. Why would Chen Song betray me when I am such a good person?

Now it seems that it’s time to leave the country…

Chen Song treated Sister Guihua very well. After Sister Guihua gave birth to Xueer, he treated Sister Guihua even better and doted on Xueer as much as his life.

Xueer was the most attached to Brother Zhe when she was a child. Brother Zhe liked to play with flowers and plants. Xueer followed him like a tail. Wherever Brother Zhe went, she would follow him. "

When Su Er said this, he turned to look at Hua Da.

Gu Huayu sighed, turned her gaze to Hua Da, and said, "If you are worried, go and see her from time to time."

Hua Da bowed and said, "Thank you, Miss. I understand."

Gu Huayu said: "Let people find out what the Chen Mansion in Nianfeng Lane is."

Hua Da and Su Er looked up at Gu Huayu. Gu Huayu recounted what happened while eating.

Su Er bowed and said, "I'll check it out tomorrow."

The story about Mrs. Lu from Huafu going to Magnolia Lane to bully Chen Xue spread quickly throughout the capital.

 In the lobby of Qing Keju, several people at a table in the middle were drinking tea and talking.

One of them said: "Why did the British Duke marry his granddaughter into the Hua Mansion? It wasn't just to keep Long Shadow Guard in his hands."

 “No way? Really?” someone exclaimed.

"Think about it, if it weren't for the Dragon Shadow Guards, the British prince would have paid for his granddaughter? Commander Xiaohua was well-known before getting married." The voice before was much lower.

Someone disagreed and said, "That may not be the case. The British government is already a hereditary government. The two sons, one is the general guarding the border and the other is the minister of war. They are already powerful enough."

“What you say makes sense, but why would you marry your granddaughter to Huafu and suffer the injustice?

 Commander Xiaohua has a well-known reputation. On the day Commander Laohua died, the servants went to Qunfang Tower to find Commander Xiaohua.

 Tsk tsk tsk, if it were you, would you be willing to marry your daughter to such a person?

 So, I still think this matter is not simple.

Ms. Lu has been married to Jinhua Mansion for more than three years. I heard that she often goes to find girls from the Chen family to cause trouble.

With everyone living in the same city, would the British government not know what Lu was doing? No way! He knew it, but he didn't dissuade him. He only had one purpose, which was to suppress the old team of Long Shadow Guard. "

“So, the young commander’s reputation is like this, and the British duke is marrying off his granddaughter. Isn’t this a lice on the monk’s head? Is it?”

“I heard that after Commander Xiaohua took office, many new members of the Long Shadow Guard were recruited, and there was a great conflict between the old and new forces.

 Staff Chen still has great prestige in the hearts of the old Longying Guards.

The British Duke asked his granddaughter to make things difficult for Chen's daughter, which was a provocation. This trick is still very useful. Do you know the Chen Liang before Long Shadow Guard? "

“You know, it’s the one holding the Shahua sword, right?”

“Oh, yes, I haven’t heard from him for a long time. Is he no longer in the Long Shadow Guard?”

“In Longyingwei, after the death of Chen’s staff, Chen Song was assassinated soon after.”

   …”

Lu Ziqin was sitting in the corner, holding a cup in his hand, facing the window, his back to everyone, drinking tea and listening to people talking.

                   .

Lu Ziqin looked up at Ruji and nodded to him, "Here you go, sit down."

Ruji looked around and asked, "Why are you sitting here?"

 Lv Ziqin looked back at the lobby and said, "It's pretty good here."

As he spoke, Lu Ziqin poured a cup of tea for Ruji and pushed the teacup in front of Ruji. "Have a cup of tea."

 Ruji hurriedly leaned over and said, "Master, you killed the little one."

Lu Ziqin waited for Ruji to take a sip of tea and asked, "Where is Ruji? Didn't he come with you?"

Ruji put down his cup, leaned forward and said, "The young one came here with Ruji. On Zimo Road, they met several young men from the second young master Li of Baokangmen, dragging the second young master from Chen's house in Nianfeng Lane to the west.

Mr. Li also knows that the Li family and the Chen family have always been close. Rujin asked the younger one to come over first, and he went to take a look and then arrived. "

Lu Ziqin nodded and stood up, "Let's go up."

Ruji stood up and stepped aside, letting Lu Ziqin go in front while he followed closely behind.

 The two of them went to the private room on the second floor.

 Lv Ziqin asked: "Is mother in the Chengguo Duke's Palace or the British Duke's Palace?"

 Ruji leaned over and said, "Come back to me, my wife is at the Chengguo Palace. My uncle is in a bad mood these days, so I am staying with my uncle at the mansion."

 “What’s wrong with aunt?”

Ruji replied: "I am worried about my uncle's life-long affairs. After the filial piety period, in addition to serving, my uncle and my wife will go on a blind date for my uncle. In the past year, my uncle and my wife have arranged many blind dates for my uncle."

Lu Ziqin raised his eyebrows, "Oh? Is there anyone you like?"

"The old lady, my uncle, and my wife are all satisfied with the families I chose. But the uncle is not satisfied and is so angry that my uncle and his wife can't eat anything." Ruji replied.

 “Master!”

 There was a loud sound outside the door.

 “Come in.” Lu Ziqin said to the door.

Ruxuan pushed the door open and came in. After greeting Lu Ziqin, he extended his fist towards Ruji. Ruji smiled and extended his fist to touch him.

 Ruxuan sat down next to Ruji, poured himself a cup of tea and drank it.

Lu Ziqin waited for him to drink the tea and asked, "What did you find out?"

Ruxuan leaned forward and said: "The matter of the second aunt and grandma has spread a lot, and the current remarks are very unfavorable to the Duke of Guo. The Duke of Guo is furious in the house.

Second Auntie was wronged in Magnolia Lane, so she went back to Hua Mansion, changed her clothes, and then returned to the Duke of Guo's Palace. She happened to catch the Duke of Guo losing his temper, and was punished by him to kneel in the ancestral hall.

The younger one asked a few servants and said that the Second Madam and the Old Madam had always known about the Second Auntie’s visit to trouble Chen Xue, and they didn’t think it was inappropriate.

He also said that my uncle was doing random things outside, and my second aunt and grandma were unhappy, so there was nothing wrong with finding someone to vent her anger on.

The old lady interceded for the second aunt and grandma, but was scolded by the Duke of the country. When the younger one returned, the old lady was breaking things in Rong'an Hall.

Everyone in the house was trembling with fear. The servants did not dare to show their anger for fear of offending the Duke and the old lady. "

Lu Ziqin looked at Ruji, "After Wen De got married, are you still making trouble outside?"

Ruji nodded and said: "After Commander Hua left, the Duke of Guo personally went to the Hua Mansion to express his condolences. It is said that the Duke of Guo had a secret conversation with Mrs. Liu and my uncle for half an hour.

After the Duke of Guo left, Mrs. Liu asked Mrs. You to go to the Duke of Guo's house to propose marriage. The younger brother found out about it from An Xu, who was with his uncle.

The uncle promised to marry the second aunt's grandma and not take concubines within five years, but the second aunt's grandma was not allowed to interfere with the uncle's visit to Huanlou. "

Ruxuan took the words and said, "It's true that my uncle and his second aunt have never dealt with each other since they were young, and they even got together as a couple. It's no wonder that they became enemies."

 Ruji nodded and said, "But who is venting his anger on the Chen family girl today?

In recent years, Second Aunt Grandma has been able to do whatever she wants in Hua Mansion with the connivance of Mrs. Liu. It is common for her to vent her anger on Miss Chen, but what happened today has never happened. "

Ruxuan thought of the girl who was guarding his shortcomings at the foot of Ci'en Temple, frowned and asked, "Even if Chen Song dies, will there be no one left in the Chen Mansion? Will everyone just watch others bully their master?"

 Ruji sighed and said, "It's not like you don't know the temper of my second aunt? What's more, Mrs. Liu is conniving at it. Who dares to stop her?"

Chen Liang, who was beside Chen Song, injured the second aunt's grandma's men and was poisoned to death two days later.

There was also Deng Jiayu who was suffering from cartilage dispersion. He stood up and said a few words for Miss Chen, but the second aunt's grandma said that he had committed adultery with Miss Chen and was beaten to death.

 You say, who dares to speak for Miss Chen? "

 Ruxuan's scalp felt numb when he heard it, "Why is Second Auntie's grandma like this?"

Ruji spread his hands and said, "Who knows? In the past, I only knew that she had a bad temper, but I didn't know that she was also ruthless."

"Sir, there is news about Doctor Gu." Ru'an opened the door excitedly and came in.

Lu Ziqin stood up suddenly, stared at Ru An, and asked urgently: "Where did you get the news? Where is the person?"

Ru'an wiped his sweat, took a breath and continued: "I found out about it from Mr. Li's servant.

 Mr. Chen Erye from Nianfeng Lane offended a girl. In order to calm the girl down, his father asked a few of them to take Mr. Chen Erye to the Tianxiang Pond in Da'aokou to soak for half a day.

The younger one asked which house the girl came from? The boys all shook their heads and said they didn't know. They only heard his father say that he hadn't seen the girl for several years and that she was so particular about a fight.

After listening to the boy's story, the young man had no doubt that this person was Doctor Gu.

However, when I rushed to Wang Jianan Restaurant, Doctor Gu had already left.

The young man asked the shopkeeper, who said that the girl had a red mole on her right earlobe, and Dr. Gu also had a red mole on his right earlobe. "

Lu Ziqin nodded happily and murmured: "That's right, it must be her."

Ruxuan looked at Lu Ziqin and asked, "Is it Doctor Gu who vented his anger on Miss Chen today?"

Ruji shook his head, "You can't, right? Doctor Gu doesn't have a good impression of Chen Song."

 Lv Ziqin said to Ruxuan: "Go to the Chen Mansion and have a look."

 Ruxuan bowed and responded: "Okay, I'll go right away."

 Lv Ziqin stood up and said, "Let's go back to the British Palace, and then go to the Chengguo Palace tomorrow."

 A few days after Gu Huayu’s family moved to Wutong Lane, Wanshi clamored to return to Zhuangzi.

Gu Chengjuan said with a smile: "Third Aunt is really a hard worker and cannot be blessed."

Wan said: "It's really hard to live here all day long eating and sleeping. I would rather live in Zhuangzi and visit the fields every day. It's easy to pass the time."

Gu Dechang smiled and said to Gu Huayu: "Xiaoyu, your mother and I are used to doing the same thing, and I feel uncomfortable when we are free.

We will go back to live in Zhuangzi, and you brothers and sisters will live in the city.

 You have time, come to Zhuangzi and stay for two days. We missed you and came into town to see you. Do you think this is good? "

Gu Huayu couldn't resist, so she had to nod her head and let Qingyu send Gu Dechang and Wan back to Zhuangzi.

Having just sent away my father and mother, a servant came in and said, "Miss, there is Mr. Li outside the door who wants to see you."

Gu Huayu was stunned for a moment, then turned and walked to the door. She saw Li Tao leaning against the willow tree, turning the riding whip in his hand, and looking at her casually.

“How did you find yourself here?” Gu Huayu asked.

Li Tao stopped what he was doing, stood up straight and looked at Gu Huayu with a half-smile, "If I don't find it myself, will I wait for you to forget about me? Who said you would write to me when you settle down?" Um?"

Li Tao complained like a resentful woman.

Gu Huayu smiled and said, "I just settled in and there are so many trivial matters that I forgot about. Let's go in and have a cup of tea."

Li Tao raised his head and looked at the sky, "Your family is here, and you must not say hello when you come in. I went out after getting the letter. I forgot to bring the gift, and I was empty-handed. I was embarrassed to come. I'll wait for you here. How about we go out for a walk?" "
