Chapter 252

The Prime Minister nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty has asked me to come down to talk today, just to ask if I am satisfied with this marriage?"

Mrs. Shangguan asked hurriedly: "Is Mr. Prime Minister ready?"

 The Prime Minister nodded again, "Yes, the wise king has become more and more stable in the past two years. If the third girl marries you, she will be fine in the future."

Mrs. Shangguan nodded, "This is a great event, but we haven't told the third girl yet, Mr. Prime Minister, do you think?"

Mrs. Shangguan knew that her granddaughter's thoughts were on Lu Liu, and she was worried that her granddaughter would do something stupid if she found out.

Wang Xiang suppressed the smile on his face and said: "As things stand now, this is the best destination for her. Sister Yun has always been aware of current affairs and is sensible. She should know what to do."

With that said, Wang Xiang turned around and ordered: "Go and send the third lady over."

Mian'er bowed her body and bent her knees, then turned and walked out of the courtyard.

Wang Peiyun went to Anfutang and listened to his grandfather’s words. It only took a moment for Wang Peiyun to go from shock to resistance, and then from resistance to acceptance.

Since you can’t marry him, isn’t it the same as marrying someone else?

Besides, marrying a noble prince is a thousand times better than marrying a child of a noble family.

Even if that little **** is a princess given by the emperor, he will still have to pay tribute to her when he sees her as a princess.

 In the future, if the wise king ascends to the throne, then she will be the empress of the world and the most noble woman in the world.

On that day, not only the little **** will bow to her, but he will also kneel down and bow to her when he sees her.

Suddenly, Wang Peiyun was full of expectations for the future. She wanted to see him look submissive in front of her.

Seeing that his granddaughter agreed, Wang Xiang nodded with satisfaction, "I said, we, Sister Yun, have a general understanding of things. Sister Yun, be good to yourself, good days are ahead."

Wang Peiyun thanked her. She knew exactly what her grandfather meant by the good days.

 After dinner, the king told his family the good news, and the whole house was filled with joy.

 Mrs. Shangguan had something in her heart to say to the king, but looking at the joyous scene, she finally did not say what was in her heart.

Mother Yang reminded Mrs. Shangguan, and Mrs. Shangguan said: "Today is a happy day. Let's talk about unhappy things at another time."

Gu Huayu looked at the time and said, "It's already the twelfth hour, I should go back."

Lu Ziqin reluctantly held her hand and asked, "When will Xiao Yu come over tomorrow?"

Gu Huayu shook her head, "For the sake of Qingzhu's marriage to my little cousin, I have to go to Zhuangzi and ask my second uncle and second aunt what they want.

Grandma and the others are all in Zhuangzi. I will stay in Zhuangzi to accompany my grandmother tomorrow night and come back the day after tomorrow. "

Lu Ziqin said: "Then when we return to the city the day after tomorrow, come directly here, okay?"

Gu Huayu nodded, "Okay!"

Gu Huayu returned to Wutong Lane to explain the marriage between Wang Gu Zhangluo Qingzhu and Wan Xiaoshuang.

The next day, Gu Huayu had breakfast and left for Mingyue Villa.

When Mrs. Wan saw her coming back, she was so happy that she told Ma Liu, "Let the kitchen cook the sweet and sour pork ribs, fry the eggplant boxes, and then have someone pick some tender pepper leaves and bring them back, wrap them in flour and egg liquid and fry them on a plate." , Xiaoyu likes to eat like this."

Liu Ma happily responded, "Okay, I'll give you the instructions now."

After Liu Ma left, Wan turned around and ordered Da Ya again: "Girl, go to the field and bring back a watermelon."

Da Ya smiled and said, "Madam, you don't have to go to the fields. There are several watermelons frozen in the well. I'll go get them here, little one."

Gu Huayu smiled and said, "Auntie, you don't have to work so hard, come and have a rest."

Wan Shi smiled and sat down as instructed, and asked about Gu Chengliang and the others.

Gu Huayu replied one by one, and mentioned the marriage between Qingzhu and Wan Xiaoshuang.

Jiang said: "This child Qingzhu is honest and trustworthy, but his status is a bit... It's not that I don't look down on domestic servants. I heard that if he is a slave, the children he will give birth to in the future will They are also slaves and their children cannot take the scientific examinations. I am just worried about Xiaoshuang’s children.”

Gu Huayu smiled and said: "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, I have already liberated Qingzhu. From now on, Qingzhu will no longer be a slave.

When Wan Guihua and Jiang heard that Qingzhu had resigned, they felt relieved and happily thanked Gu Huayu.

Wan Shi said with a smile: "Second sister-in-law used to worry about her daughter marrying into her husband's family and being angry with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law... She always had endless worries. Now it's better. Da Shuang is by her side and Xiao Shuang is by her side."

Jiang said with a smile: "This is all thanks to Xiaoyu. If it weren't for Xiaoyu, how could our family have the good life we ​​have now?"

Mrs. Ping smiled and said: "Maohua, we don't want to talk about this. It is fate that the family can meet together. We know our blessings and cherish them, and a happy family is better than anything else!"

 Maohua is Jiang’s name.

Wan Shi nodded and said: "What the old lady said is that from now on, none of us are allowed to say things like TOEFL. A happy family is better than anything else."

Jiang said with a smile: "Okay, listen to the old lady and don't say anything else."

Gu Huayu liked this atmosphere very much. She sat on a low stool, leaning against Mrs. Ping, chatting with her family.

After dinner, Gu Huayu went to Mrs. Ping's house and put a pile of posts on the table, "Grandma, these are all for you. Some of them have been posted several times."

 After Mrs. Wang took the post and read it, she reported to Mrs. Ping one by one who had sent the post.

After hearing this, Mrs. Ping said: "Oh, this world is really very realistic.

 In these years when we have been living in poverty, we can count the number of people we go to on our fingers.

The people who came to our door were none other than Yingzi, Mrs. Qin from the Chengguo Duke's Mansion, Xinlan, and the deceased Mrs. Tian from the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion.

They came to see us, and they didn’t want to post anything. When they had time to spare, they thought of it, so they came to see us. "

 Speaking of this, Mrs. Ping sighed heavily.

Gu Huayu advised: "Grandma, don't be sad. If you don't want to go, we won't go. In the future, if they send another post, we will just decline."

Mrs. Wang also comforted me.

Mrs. Ping said: "I just sigh with emotion. If Yanran receives another post next time, she will decline it on the grounds that I am raising a general in Zhuangzi."

Mrs. Wang took the words and said, "If you reject it a few times, no one will hand it over again."

Gu Huayu nodded, "Okay."

Mrs. Ping asked: "Yanran, how are you doing recently? Have you encountered any trouble since your identity was made public?"

Gu Huayu shook her head, "No, everything is normal. Even if Hua Xu and Chen Song died, the clues from back then were also broken."

Gu Huayu regretted that she had hastily killed Hua Xu and Chen Song.

At that time, I was young after all. When I learned what the two had done, I ended them both simply and brutally.

If Hua Xu and Chen Song were still alive, would the investigation be much smoother?

If she had it to do over again, would she do it again?

 Thinking about old priests like Zhu Lao and others, she thought, she would still be able to do this.

 “Yanran, Yanran…”

Mrs. Wang shouted and pulled Gu Huayu's hand, and Gu Huayu came back to her senses.

 “Aunt.”

Mrs. Ping asked: "What is Yanran thinking about? She is lost in thought."

Gu Huayu said: "I'm wondering if there is any oversight?"

Mrs. Ping comforted her: "Don't be impatient. It has been so many years since the incident, and it is already difficult to investigate. Let's investigate slowly, and one day the truth will be revealed."

 Gu Huayu nodded, "Grandma is right. It's getting late. Grandma should take a rest early and say goodbye Yanran."

Gu Huayu was afraid of mentioning her mother's affairs, which made her grandmother feel uncomfortable and hurriedly ended the topic.

Gu Huayu came out of Mrs. Ping's house and walked back to her own house along the corridor.

 At night in the suburbs, the moonlight is like water, the cicadas are chirping, and the evening wind blows slowly, bringing a cool feeling.

Gu Huayu looked at the courtyard filled with moonlight, stopped going back to the house, and turned to the courtyard.

Gu Huayu looked up at the sky, the bright moon was in the sky, and she suddenly missed Hua Jinlin and her parents. I wonder if everything is okay for them at this moment?

Gu Huayu sat by the flower bed, holding her hands back, looking up at the sky, as if admiring the moon, her thoughts had flown to a distant world, and she didn't even notice when Gu Chengnan came over.

 “Xiaoyu, are you here?”

Gu Huayu came back to her senses, sat up straight, and looked back at Gu Chengnan.

 My heart was horrified, when did Gu Chengnan come here? She didn't realize at all that this had happened more than once.

 “Second brother, haven’t you rested yet?”

Gu Chengnan sat down opposite Gu Huayu, "No, I don't feel sleepy. It's cool in the yard. So I came out to sit and didn't expect to meet Xiaoyu."

Gu Huayu said: "I just came from my grandmother's place. Seeing that the night was very nice, I came here to sit. Second brother, do you want to drink?"

Gu Chengnan nodded and said: "This is a good idea. It would be a bit disappointing if I didn't have a few drinks at such a nice night."

Gu Huayu turned around and ordered: "Qingyu, go to the kitchen to get some wine and vegetables."

 Qingyu flashed out of the darkness and turned towards the kitchen.

Gu Chengnan saw Qing Yu and asked: "How is the investigation of your parents' case? Are there any clues?"

Gu Huayu didn't want to talk more about this matter and simply said, "Not yet."

Gu Chengnan comforted: "It has been more than ten years. It will definitely not be easy to investigate. Don't be impatient and take your time."

Gu Huayu nodded, "Thank you, second brother, I know."

While the brother and sister were talking, Qing Yu came over with wine and food, accompanied by Chen Xue.

Chen Xue put the dishes on the stone table and greeted Gu Hua, "Hello, Princess."

Qingyu explained: "I went to the kitchen and happened to meet Miss Chen. Miss Chen heard that the young man was delivering food and wine to the princess, so she took the initiative to come over and help."

Gu Huayu greeted: "Second brother said that if you don't drink two drinks at this night, you will be living up to the beautiful scenery. Sister Xue is here, let's drink two drinks together."

Chen Xue heard that Gu Huayu hadn't stopped and wanted to come over and say hello to her.

Seeing Gu Huayu's warm greetings, I felt a little reluctant to refuse the hospitality, but I also took into account the etiquette between master and servant.

Gu Huayu noticed Chen Xue's hesitation and left Qingyu with him instead. "Qingyu, you go over again and bring me two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and you can stay and have two drinks."

Gu Huayu often drinks and dines with everyone. Qingyu has long been used to it and responded cheerfully: "Thank you, Princess. I'll go right now."

 Chen Xue was relieved to see that Qing Yu deserved it, and the concern in her heart faded a lot. Said: "Thank you, Princess, then I would rather obey your orders than be respectful."

Gu Chengnan saw Chen Xue's restraint and said with a smile: "We are all our own people, Miss Chen doesn't have to be formal."

Chen Xue sat down on Gu Huayu's right hand side and said, "Thank you, Second Master."

Gu Chengnan put the bowl and chopsticks in front of him in front of Chen Xue, and said with a smile: "Miss Chen said thank you and left. Miss Chen taught martial arts to the first graders, so I should thank Miss Chen."

Gu Huayu looked at Chen Xue, "On the first day of junior high school, are you practicing martial arts with Sister Xue?"

Chen Xue said: "That day I was practicing in the courtyard, and Chu Yi happened to see me, so he pestered me to teach him."

"Princess, one jar of wine is a little short. The younger one brought another jar. Let's have a great time drinking today." Qing Yu came over with the jar of wine in his arms.

Gu Huayu turned around and saw Qingyu holding a big altar, and asked, "How are you two drinking?"

Gu Chengnan looked at the wine jar in Qingyu's hand and said, "My ability to drink is average..."

Before Gu Chengnan could finish speaking, Qing Yu grabbed the words and said, "Second Master, you can't be cowardly."

 Chen Xue took the bowl and chopsticks from Qing Yu's hand and said, "It's okay, I'll drink with you."

Gu Huayu smiled and said: "I can't tell, but you are still a drinker."

 Chen Xue poured the wine and said: "When I was young, my father, master and the others would always give me a few sips when they drank. Gradually, I started to drink more."

After Chen Xue finished speaking, she suddenly realized something and looked at Gu Huayu awkwardly.

Gu Chengnan didn't know about Chen Song, and he didn't notice Chen Xue's expression in the night, so he answered, "You are a girl, and your father and they also let you drink?"

 Chen Xue looked at Gu Huayu uncomfortably.

Gu Huayu said: "Sister Xue is a child of Jianghu, and her family does not follow these small details."

Gu Chengnan understood, "That's it. This informality makes so many people envious."

“That’s it, come on, let’s go one by one.” Qing Yu raised his wine bowl towards everyone.

 The three of them raised their bowls and touched them with him.

Gu Chengnan took a sip of wine and said, "Come, let's eat some food."

 The three of them picked up their chopsticks and started eating the food.

 After a few rounds, Gu Chengnan talked a lot more, talking about things when he was a child,

“Humans, when I was young, I wanted to grow up, but when I grew up, I always thought that when I was young, my brothers would go hunting in the mountains and catch fish in the river during their spare time, and exchange what they hunted for money to buy some daily necessities for the family.

At that time, my family was very poor, and I was able to contribute to the family. I was a very important person in the family. Those days were very difficult, but I was very happy. "

Gu Chengnan talked about whatever came to his mind and was filled with emotion.

Gu Huayu picked up the bowl and said to Gu Chengnan: "Second brother, I respect you. In those days, you paid for my medicine and bought me sugar candies."

 Gu Chengnan smiled and picked up the bowl, touched it with Gu Huayu, lowered his head and took a sip, and said: "At that time, you were thin and small, but you were very sensible.

That medicine is obviously very bitter, but when you drink it, your brows will become knotted, which makes your heart ache.

 You were afraid that we would be heartbroken, so you comforted us every time and said it was okay. You are just too sensible. "

Gu Chengnan's eyes were sore as he spoke. In order to cover up his emotions, he picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine.

Chen Xue asked: "The princess was in poor health when she was a child?"

Gu Huayu nodded, "My mother-in-law said that she was exposed to smoke that year, and on the way back to Shicheng, she caught wind and cold due to the freezing weather. She was not treated in time, and the root cause of the disease was left. She needs to take medicine for a long time."

 Chen Xue felt guilty after hearing this.

Gu Huayu reached out and shook her hand, shook her head at her, and whispered: "It's all over. Come, drink."
