Chapter 209 Greedy

A quarter of an hour later, Wang and Wan Changrui helped Mrs. Ping over.

Seeing everyone waiting, Wan Changrui said apologetically: "Sorry, we are late."

When Mr. Shen saw Mr. Ping, his resentment and unwillingness grew like crazy. He said unhappily: "We've arrived, father-in-law, please announce the decree."

Eunuch Gao glanced at Shen and calmly took out the imperial edict.

Everyone knelt down one after another, and Eunuch Gao preached loudly: "Wanyunshu, Pingfengyuan, has accepted the decree and is destined to be carried by heaven. The emperor called, Wanyunshu of Wanfu and Pingfengyuan of the Ping family have been separated for many years. The husband and wife have been separated for a long time. Immediately Get up, Wanyunshu and Pingfeng Yuan are in harmony."

 Everyone in the family is confused. You look at me, and I look at you.

The first imperial edict issued by the emperor to Wanfu turned out to be for the old man and Mrs. Ping to reconcile.

  Since when did the Emperor, who is always busy with everything, start to take care of the discord and separation of other couples?

 Among the people, only Shen was surprised. Shen never dreamed that she would still see Ping and the old man reconcile in her lifetime.

 She finally came through and became her cousin's official wife.

Shen was in a good mood and asked in a somewhat urgent voice: "Eunuch Gao, since Ping and our old man have reconciled, should we move out of Wanfu?"

Mrs. Ping is like a grain of sand in Shen's eyes. Looking at and thinking about her makes her eyes hurt, her head hurts, and her heart aches even more.

Before Eunuch Gao could reply, Wang took over and said, "Although I have reconciled with my father, my daughter-in-law is still there, and Brother Rui is still there. Brother Rui is a descendant of the Wan family, and it is only natural that he should live in Wanfu.

Aniang is Rui Geer’s grandmother, and it is Rui Geer’s duty to honor her grandmother. Why should you let A Niang move out? "

Shen raised her chest and wanted to argue with Wang, but Mrs. Wan held her back, "Yuzhu, there are outsiders here. If you have anything to do, we can talk about it later. Don't make a fuss here."

After hearing what Mrs. Wan said, Mrs. Shen gave Wang a fierce look and stopped talking.

Gu Huayu walked over from across the street and said to Gao Eunuch Fu Shen: "Eunuch, there is another imperial edict, go ahead and announce it."

Eunuch Gao leaned forward and said, "Princess, wait a moment, the person to take over the order has not arrived yet."

Wan Changquan stared at Gu Huayu closely. Is this woman the princess? No wonder he and Lu Zixun searched all over the capital but couldn't find any information about her.

 She is the princess, why are you here?

By the way, when did the capital have an additional princess? A series of questions exploded in Wan Changquan's mind.

 “Come, come.” The servant came over quickly, followed by Wan Yunshen, the leader of the Wan clan.

Wan Yunshen once held a position in the Hanlin Academy. He recognized Eunuch Gao at a glance and hurriedly bowed to greet him and said, "Hello, Eunuch."

Old Master Wan felt nervous when he saw his cousin treating Eunuch Gao with respect and respect. He thought to himself, could it be that he was the one who announced the decree?

Eunuch Gao bowed politely and returned the courtesy. Then he said: "The following is the emperor's oral instruction to the chiefs of all clans."

As soon as Wan Yunshen heard the emperor's oral instructions to him, he immediately knelt down to listen.

Eunuch Gao said: "Yanran is the child of Hua Aiqing and Mrs. Wan. She is the only bloodline of Hua Aiqing in the world. I personally designate her as Princess Yanran.

Princess Yanran returned to Beijing for the first time. I asked Yanran’s grandmother, Mrs. Ping, aunt, Mrs. Wang, and cousin Wan Changrui to move in with Yanran. This matter was reported to the Wan clan and the clan leader was expected to deal with it properly. "

After hearing this, Wan Yun kowtowed and thanked him, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will arrange this matter properly."

After Eunuch Gao finished explaining his affairs, he bowed to Gu Huayu and said, "Is the princess here to pick someone up? Are we on the same road, together?"

Gu Huayu understood what Eunuch Gao meant and said politely: "Okay, thank you, Eunuch Gao."

Gu Huayu turned around and helped the old lady down, "Grandma, let's go home."

First, the emperor issued an order for the old man to reconcile with the Ping family, then a princess appeared, and then the clan leader gave instructions. The Shen family's initial joy was wiped out.

Shen stared at Gu Huayu, who looked exactly like Hua Ling, and was so jealous that she was going crazy. Wasn't this girl dead long ago? Why are you still alive? She also became the princess, and the common **** towered over her again.

 Mr. Shen is so sad that she beats people up!

Shen's eldest daughter-in-law, Yan, heard that the princess was Wan Hanru's child, and she thought that Xiao Jiujiu, Hanru's daughter, was the granddaughter of the Wan family.

The Wan family has a granddaughter of the princess, which is of great benefit to the Wan family.

Seeing that Gu Huayu was about to leave with Ping, Yan pulled Shen and said softly: "Mother, are you going to let them leave like this?"

Shen Shi turned around and looked at Yan Shi in confusion, and whispered: "You won't let them leave, but will you stay for dinner?"

Yan reminded her in a low voice: "Mom, we have a granddaughter of a princess in our family. It will be much more convenient for Brother Quan and the others to do things outside."

Mrs. Shen came to her senses and raised her voice: "Since Princess Yanran is Hanru's child, why don't you come to the mansion to sit down? Your grandfather is here."

 Speaking, Shen pushed Wan Yunshu forward.

Gu Huayu stopped, turned around, looked at Wan Yunshu and Shen, and said with a half-smile, "I still have something to do. I'm busy, so I won't go into the house to bother you."

Shen said with an apologetic smile: "A cup of tea and a meal won't waste much time. Right? The princess has not returned in these years, and your grandfather has been worried for many years."

Gu Huayu said calmly: "When I came back, I heard that my grandmother and aunt had been looking for me for many years, but I never heard that my grandfather had been looking for me."

Shen didn't expect Gu Huayu to speak so directly and not give her and Wan Yunshu any face, so she felt a little more resentful towards Gu Huayu.

Still smiling apologetically on his face, he said: "What are you saying, Princess? The Princess is the granddaughter of the old man, and the princess is left outside. How can the old man not be worried? I am by the old man's side and have seen with my own eyes how he has survived these years."

As he spoke, Mrs. Shen raised his hand and pressed the corners of his eyes.

Gu Huayu looked at Mr. Shen who looked distressed and thought to herself, this guy is really good at acting.

Gu Huayu didn’t want to accompany her in the drama, and said bluntly: “In order to avoid embarrassment for everyone, I spoke a lot more tactfully today.

 Mrs. Shen, can you understand what I mean? I think, for the sake of face, some things are better left unsaid than said. What do you think? "

Shen was so confused by Gu Huayu's words that she didn't know how to answer.

Mrs. Yan said with an apologetic smile: "What the princess said may sound a bit unpleasant. We are all members of the same family. Why can't we tell the truth?

When something happened to the Hua family, my father was so worried that he couldn't eat or sleep well. Princess, don't just listen to one side of the story. "

Ping was so angry that he gasped, "Can't he eat or sleep well?

 I asked him to help me find Yanran’s whereabouts. How did he respond to me?

He said in front of everyone in the house, what does it matter to him whether a person with a foreign surname lives or dies?

 The money he has, it is better to cut off two ounces of meat and beat two ounces of wine.

He didn't look for Yanran, and he didn't allow the servants in the mansion to look for her. Old Liu from the mansion drove me and Xinlan out. When we came back, he broke our legs and sent us to Zhuangzi. Is this how he can't eat well or sleep well?

 I remember everything he did, one by one. Are you embarrassed to say that he can't eat well or sleep well? "

Gu Huayu used her hands to help Mrs. Ping calm down and comforted her: "Grandma, don't be angry. It's not worth getting so angry over these things."

After saying that, Gu Huayu looked at Yan, "I said, there are some things that are better left unsaid than revealed. You just don't listen."

 What have you done that you don’t know clearly? Grandma must be forced to tell the truth.

 It’s okay now, everyone is embarrassed.

From now on, no matter where we meet, we will treat each other as strangers. You don’t know me and I don’t know you. Let’s be safe. This is the greatest respect between us, do you understand? "

Mrs. Shen blurted out, "Princess, what do you mean, if Brother Rui and the others leave this house, they will no longer be part of this family? Are we going to sever ties with the Wan family from now on?"

Gu Huayu sneered and said: "Mrs. Shen said this in a hurry because she hoped that cousin Rui would not come back to divide the family property, right?"

Shen replied: "They have all moved out of Wanfu, so what qualifications do they have to come back and divide the family business?"

Gu Huayu turned to look at Wan Yunshen and said, "It depends on how the Wan clan leader will carry out the emperor's instructions. Grandma, let's go."

Gu Huayu took two steps, turned to look at Wan Yunshu, and said: "Uncle bought a lot of things for Wan Mansion during his lifetime. I will pile them up here today. Who dares to swallow cousin Rui's things without conscience?" No, don't blame me for being rude."

Mrs. Wang followed Mrs. Ping and asked softly: "Yanran, are we leaving like this? There are still many things in the house!"

Gu Huayu said: "Don't worry, aunt, I will let someone take care of it."

 Wang nodded, "Okay, then I'll feel relieved."

Mrs. Shen was intimidated by Gu Huayu's aura. She didn't come back to her senses until she watched the carriage go away. "This girl is just like her mother. She speaks in a way that makes people angry."

Mrs. Yan supported Mrs. Shen and said, "Mother, let's go back."

Shen turned around and saw that Wan Yunshu was still there, and said sourly: "What? I can't bear to leave? Why didn't you just say that you couldn't bear to leave? If you want to keep her, she won't leave."

Wan Yunshu looked at Mr. Shen and said, "It's inexplicable!"

Shen's wife said in an aggrieved voice: "Cousin, you actually said I'm baffled because of her today! You've always had her in mind, right? No wonder you didn't say a word today."

Ms. Shen became more and more energetic and aggrieved as she spoke. Ms. Yan couldn't stand it anymore and advised, "Mom, uncle is still here."

Shen looked at Wan Yunshen and realized that she had lost her composure, so she turned around and walked into the courtyard.

Wan Yunshu looked at Mr. Shen, then turned to look at Wan Yunshen, "Brother."

Wan Yun sighed deeply and said, "Yunshu, take care of your family from now on, live a good life, and don't let them bully the Ping family's ancestors and grandchildren again.

Today is different from the past. Jun is not very old, but he dares to speak directly with Yan and Shen. He is not easy to get along with at first sight. Moreover, like her Han Ru, she is very protective of others. If Chang Fan and the others go to bully Chang Rui again. …”

Wan Yunshen didn’t say anything else about the rest.

Wanyunshu was silent.

Wan Yun looked at him deeply, and then said: "I have already said what needs to be said. You can take care of yourself. I will go back first."

Wan Yunshen took two steps and suddenly thought of something. He turned around and said to Wan Yunshu: "It's best not to move on the west side of the courtyard. Just let the wall stand."

Wan Yunshu asked: "Brother, do you know the father-in-law who announced the decree?"

Wan Yunshen asked in surprise: "You didn't recognize him?"

Wan Yunshu shook his head, "No, he is?"

"Eunuch Gao is in front of the emperor." Wan Yunshen replied, "Hua Ling was the person close to the emperor during his lifetime, you should have thought of it."

Wan Yunshu murmured: "Hua Ling has been gone for so many years, who knew..."

Wan Yun sighed deeply. He knew that this cousin was too snobbish and would suffer a loss sooner or later.

"Yunshu, remember, don't be too greedy. I'm going back first."

Wang sat next to Mrs. Ping and asked, "Yanran, where are we going?"

Gu Huayu replied: "Back to Wutong Lane, the Princess's Mansion that the Emperor mentioned was rebuilt on the foundation of the old house on Yongchun Road. It may not be possible to move in until next year. In the meantime, we will live in Wutong Lane."

Mrs. Ping nodded, "Okay, I'll listen to Yanran's arrangements. Alas, I feel like I'm in a dream today."

"Miss, Eunuch Gao's car has stopped, as if he wants to say goodbye to you." Hua Dawai reminded.

Gu Huayu jumped out of the car, walked to Eunuch Gao's car and said, "Thank you very much, Eunuch-in-law, for today."

Eunuch Gao smiled and said: "You're welcome, Princess, our family has returned to the palace. Goodbye!"

Taking care of Huayu's well-being, she watched Eunuch Gao's car drive away before returning to the car.

The group returned to Wutong Lane, and Gu Huayu helped Mrs. Ping to the main hall of the backyard, "Aunt, you live with my grandmother in the hall for the time being. When I cure my grandmother's eye disease and her eyes are clear, you can live in the small hall again." Go to the hospital."

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "There is no need to arrange another yard. I have been living with my mother-in-law these years and I am used to it."

After settling old Mrs. Ping and Mrs. Wang, Gu Huayu returned to the outer courtyard. Seeing that Hua Da had already settled Wan Changrui, she said, "Wen Yu's skills are good, let him serve his cousin."

Hua Da bowed and responded, "Okay, I'll go and give you the instructions."

Gu Huayu said to Wan Changrui: "If my cousin is short of something, just ask Hua Da or Shi Niang for it."

Wan Changrui nodded in agreement, "Thank you Yanran, I understand."

Seeing his restraint, Gu Huayu comforted him and said, "We are a family. My cousin treats this place as his home, so don't feel uncomfortable."

Wan Changrui nodded and said, "Yes."

"Cousin, please take a break first. Dinner is ready. Someone will call you." Gu Huayu explained.

Wan Changrui nodded and said yes.

Gu Huayu smiled, turned around and left the west wing.

As soon as they walked to the corridor, Gu Chengjuan, Gu Chengliang and Gu Chenggui came back together.

Gu Chengjuan stared at Gu Huayu closely.

Gu Huayu smiled and asked, "Second sister, what's going on?"

“They said that our family received the imperial edict and said that you were the princess. Xiaoyu, how did you become the princess?”

Gu Chengjuan rushed back after receiving the letter. She felt that everything had changed since Miss Shi San and her mother came to the shop.

Gu Huayu looked at Gu Chenggui and Gu Chengliang behind Gu Chengjuan, "You also came back after getting the letter?"

Gu Chenggui and Gu Chengliang nodded at the same time.

Gu Huayu said: "Come to the study and I will talk to you slowly."

 The three of them followed Gu Huayu to the study.

Hua Da asked: "Princess, do you need to stay here?"

Gu Huayu shook her head, "No, you go and do your business."

Hua Da retreated, and Gu Huayu closed the door. He started talking about Gu Dechang's arrival in Beijing to take the exam, and continued until they arrived in Beijing. Of course, he talked about what he could talk about. Gu Huayu skipped everything he couldn't talk about.

After hearing this, Gu Chengliang said: "So, we are not twins?"
