Gu Daqing turned blue and flicked his sleeves and left.

Xie was immediately frightened, and stretched out his hand to grab Master Gu's sleeve.

"Master, the concubine is confused. The concubine is wrong, the concubine knows it is wrong..."

Gu Da was so popular that he couldn't say anything. He took a few deep breaths before suppressing the anger in his heart.

"In the Northwest, you have always done well. Why did you disappoint the officer again and again when you arrived in the capital? Is the officer too demanding of you, or are you too stupid?"

Xie cried.

The maids had already retired and closed the door carefully.

Xie shook his head again and again, "Master, the concubine really knows something wrong. After returning to the capital, the concubine has been in poor health and there have been accidents. The concubine will be whimsical for a while. It will never happen again."

Master Gu snorted coldly and stared at Xie with cold eyes, "If you think the official's request is excessive and you fail to meet the official's request, you speak out, the official will not force you. From now on, children You don’t need to worry about your marriage. The officer will look at the right marriage for the children.

If you are just confused for a while, this officer hopes that you will wake up as soon as possible, stop saying some stupid things, and do some stupid things.

You have to remember that this is the capital, not the northwest. This capital is not the capital when you first married the official.

The sword rain in this capital city is full of wars without gunsmoke.

If you dare to do bad things, even if you give birth to sons and daughters for the official, the official will not forgive you. "

Xie cried and said: "The concubine listens to the master, but the concubine dare not do bad things. The concubine just wants the children to marry a good family, so she was a little anxious for a while."

Master Gu bent over, pinched Xie's mandible, and said indifferently: "You don't need to worry about letting the children marry a good family.

As long as you obey the arrangements of the Hou Mansion, the children's marriage will go smoothly.

If you are wise, you must fight to show your ability, I advise you to rest your mind as soon as possible.

Do you think you are wiser, more knowledgeable, and more insightful than the old lady of the Hou Mansion? Madam, please don't be stupid in the future. This officer has limited patience.

What kind of emperor's grandson chooses a wife, even the Hou Mansion dare not provoke, how can your self-confidence, unexpectedly want to marry Shan'er to the palace? Your mind is really not clear. "

Xie said pitifully: "The master is right. The concubine is really not sober enough and too arrogant to think of marrying Shan'er to the palace. The concubine will never make such a mistake again. What the lord says shall prevail. Please give me another chance."

Master Gu snorted coldly, and threw away Xie Shi, "This official has given you many opportunities, have you seized it?"

"This time the concubine must seize the opportunity and will not let the master down."

Xie cried miserably, out of breath, and disregarded his image.

Master Gu closed his eyes, sighed, and finally said, "Finally, this time the official does not care about you. Don't let the official hear similar stupid things next time. The official has limited patience and you know the consequences.

Also, during the Chinese New Year this year, Xie's family is unclear. The present official doesn't care about the gifts that have been given to the past year. But Xie’s gift was thrown out to Ben Guan. "

Xie stunned, "Master, Xie's family is after all the concubine's family.... Even if the eldest brother is wrong, but the concubine's mother, father, and second brother's family..."

"Can't you hear what the officer said?"

Master Gu interrupted Xie directly.

Xie's lips opened and closed, his face pale, as if he was about to faint.

Master Gu smiled coldly, "Madam, you'd better remember what the official said, and don't go against the wrong. You have to understand that you have everything you have today and rely on the official, not your natal family. Xie Mao deceived me and insulted me. , You still want to get along well with Xie Mao, the official, are you too naive, or are you too stupid to deceive the official? By now, don’t you understand? The official and Xie Mao are not at odds with each other, you must choose one of the two. Here, you can do it for yourself."

This time, Xie's didn't hold Master Gu, his eyes were dull and he watched Master Gu leave.

Immediately afterwards, she laughed, tears in her laughter, ridiculing the most.

Chunhe came in from outside, and saw Xie's sitting on the ground, suddenly panicked. She hurried forward and helped Xie Shi, but did not help.

"Madam, are you okay?"

Xie chuckled, "Everyone came to force me to drive me crazy? Say I'm stupid? But he used to clearly say that I am a good wife. With me, he can be an official with peace of mind and a career.

Who is supporting his family all these years? Who is raising his children for him? He scolded his eldest brother for deceiving people too much, but he didn't think about how much he had done for our family over the years. "

Chunhe was frightened, is his wife complaining about the master?

Chunhe was anxious, and hurriedly persuaded: "Madam, don't say anything, be careful of being passed on to the ears of the master. The slave and maid will help you up, okay?"

Xie's raised his head and stared at Chunhe, "You also think I am stupid, but I did not do it right?"

Chunhe shook his head repeatedly, "Of course the slave and maid didn't think so. Madam, it's not the time to talk about this. And some of the things the master said have some truth. Rich people like the Hou Mansion dare not marry a girl to the royal family, like us. People should avoid the royal family and stay away."

Xie stood up and snorted coldly, "They are too conservative, that's why one generation is inferior to one generation. Wealth is not a pie in the sky, and it will not fall from the sky.

If you want to be rich, you have to fight, you have to fight, you have to grab. They only saw the risks of marrying a girl to the palace, but how could they not see the benefits?

Just like my elder brother, if he is like the Hou Mansion and the Gu family, he is afraid of this and that all day long, can the Xie family be rich? Can he become an official of the Eastern Palace and jump up to become a master? How did these things come from? They all came from boldness and carefulness. "

Xie's face was gritted and resented at the end.

Listening to Xie's words, Chunhe frightened.

She cautiously persuaded: "Madam, the Hou Mansion has reached the extreme of wealth and wealth. Going up, the flowers are blooming, the fire is cooking oil, and they are flourishing and declining. The servants think that the Hou Mansion does not marry the royal family, so I dare not say anything else. , At least it can keep the wealth for three generations."

Xie chuckled, staring at Chunhe, "I didn't expect you to know how to cook oil with fire, and the truth is that it is prosperous and declining."

Chunhe bowed his head, "All of them are taught by the wife. The servant girl used to be a little girl who didn't know anything. Since she came to serve her, she has gained insights and learned the skills from her wife.

Xie nodded and said: "You are right. The Hou Mansion is afraid of prosperity and decline, but our Gu Mansion is not afraid. The Hou Mansion is already extremely rich, but our Gu Mansion is not really rich, do you understand?

Gu Mansion is far away from real wealth, and there are thousands of miles away. Don't rely on marriage, just rely on the men to work hard in the officialdom, how many young people can enjoy wealth?

Ten years, twenty years, or fifty years? Can I live to that day?

What's even more frightening is that the men have been fighting for a lifetime, only to keep their current status. One generation is inferior to the next generation.

I am afraid that after a hundred years, my children and grandchildren will become more and more impoverished.

If you are planning ahead and marrying the royal family from now on, you can't say that you will be rich for a hundred years, but fifty years will always be guaranteed.

Haha...Unfortunately, the master was scared, he didn't dare, he didn't dare to do anything! He would only listen to what the Hou Mansion said, and if the Hou Mansion said going east, he did not dare to go west. Why should listen to the Hou Mansion for everything? "

Snapped!

Xie's hand stretched out and swept all the tea cups on the table to the ground.

Chunhe's face was pale, "Madam, please stop talking. The master just returned to the capital and didn't understand the situation. I must have heard from the Hou Mansion. Madam, don't think about it."

"Do you also think I'm thinking crazy?"

Xie's eyes were fierce, staring at Chunhe steadfastly.

Chunhe's heart jumped violently, "My wife misunderstood. The servant was worried that her wife would be irritated. Didn't the wife say that after the first month, she will fight with the big wife and fight for the right of housekeeping? If the wife doesn't take good care of her health, How to fight with the big lady?"

Xie snorted, "No matter how weak I am, I am not so weak that I can't take charge of the house and director."

"The wife will not only be the housekeeper, but also prepare the dowry for the third girl. After the eldest girl's marriage is settled, she will have to prepare the dowry for the eldest girl. For all these things, the servants are worried about her tiredness. "

Xie chuckled, "You know how to say it with this mouth. Forget it, you have never heard what I said today."

Chunhe said quickly: "The servant girl didn't hear anything, the servant girl went to make tea for his wife."

"Go ahead."

Chunhe hurried out of the door and stood under the eaves. His heartbeat slowly slowed when he was blown by the cold wind.

She was really scared to death in the room before.

Chunhe couldn't make sense of what the wife said, but he felt inappropriate and dangerous.

Do you have a bad day now? Why have to toss?

"Sister Chunhe, are you okay?"

Seeing Chunhe's face pale, the maid Dongmei asked with concern.

Chunhe shook his head, "I'm fine. I'll make tea for my wife."

Chunhe hurried away.

Dongmei was a little puzzled, and glanced in the room, guessing that it was his wife who had something wrong with it.

...

In the Hou Mansion next door, Master Hou came to Songhetang.

Several sons and daughter-in-law are there.

Old Hou Ye said: "Qi'er, Ying'er are on the list of young mansions, and Gu Jiu and Gu Shan from the mansion next door are also on the list."

Everyone frowned upon hearing the words.

The old lady Wei asked: "Why are Xiaojiu and Shan'er on the list?"

Old Master Hou said in a deep voice: "All the girls who are a direct daughter of a fourth-grade official in Beijing are registered."

The old lady Wei sighed, "I'm afraid there will be trouble in the palace like this."

The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, comforted: "The old lady relaxes. Although Xiao Jiu and Shan'er are on the list, no prince would call their names."

The second wife Wang and the third wife Duan nodded together.

The emperor and grandchildren are not stupid. Even if there are various restrictions and cannot choose a wife at will, they will not choose Gu Jiu and Gu Shan.

The two of them can be on the list only because of the fact that both officials and prostitutes of Grade 4 and above have to be registered.

When the emperor's grandson married a wife, he also wanted to marry a strong girl from her natal family.

To be honest, the Hou Mansion next door could not satisfy the emperor and grandson's requirements for his wife's clan.

The old lady Wei looked at Old Hou Ye, "What about Qier and Yinger?"

Old Master Hou said in a deep voice: "There is no way to remove their names from the list. The only way now is to arrange a marriage for the two children as soon as possible."

"Where can I find a suitable relationship in such a short time?"

The second wife, Wang, was anxious. She didn't want her precious daughter, Gu Qi, to marry the royal family, nor did she want her daughter to find someone else to marry.

Master Lao Hou sternly said, "Isn't it possible that you haven't taken a look at the house for such a long time?"

This……

The second wife Wang said: "I have seen a few of them, and I wanted to continue to look at them. Now that the emperor and grandson choose his wife, it's really sad."

The old lady Wei asked: "Old man, is there a royal grandson in the palace who has to choose a wife this time?"

Lord Hou's eyes lit up, "That's not true."

"In other words, can the emperor grandchildren take advantage of this opportunity to choose a wife or not?"

The old man nodded repeatedly, "That's it. Thinking about it carefully, your majesty doesn't want the emperor and grandchildren to gather together to choose a wife. It's just that you can't refute the empress's face before you agree to it. Princes and princes, presumably This is also clear. It seems that this time the emperor and grandson's choice of wives will not exceed ten at most."

"I'm afraid there are not even ten people."

The elder Gu Zhiwen said, "Obviously this time the emperor and grandson choose his wife, the empress and the empress want to take the opportunity to make trouble. You princes and princes will definitely not be obedient.

The big deal is to arrange for an undervalued son to come forward to deal with the errand.

The sons who are not valued by the princes are the grandsons of the emperor in almost all cases. The grandson of a concubine is not qualified to marry a girl from the Hou Mansion. Second brother, third brother, you can rest assured. "

Old Hou Ye shook his head, "Don’t forget that there are still two sons in the East Palace who are not married. In addition, the queen personally named the name of the son Zhao. These three are all qualified to marry our girls from the Hou Palace. Whether it is to marry the East Palace. The two sons still marry the son Zhao, neither of them is a good match."

The old lady Wei said, "Donggong should be the girl who is eyeing Luhou Mansion."

"The two sons of the East Palace want to marry a girl from the Luhou Mansion, they have to pass your majesty's hurdle first. Your Majesty will definitely not watch the East Palace marry Luhou's daughter."

"In that case, Luhou's daughters can only marry me?"

Lord Hou nodded, "Almost."

The old lady Wei frowned and said: "Second wife, third wife, you two hurry up, as long as you have a suitable family, you can quickly make a marriage for Qi'er and Yinger. In short, our girls cannot marry into the royal family. , Let alone marry into the East Palace."

"But in such a short time, where can I find a suitable person."

"If you can't find it, look for it."

The eldest wife Xiaowei said: "I have a few suitable ones here, but I don't know if the second siblings and the third siblings will take a fancy."

"Sister-in-law, say it quickly."

The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, has a lot of resources for unmarried men and women at hand, and she clicked four or five in one breath.

The second wife, Wang, and the third wife, Duan, both said they would consider it.

It's about the marriage of the darling girl, they dare not to be rash.

The old lady Wei reminded, “As long as there is something suitable, it will be settled as soon as possible. In case of being preempted by another government, it will be too late to regret it.”

The second wife and the third wife should be together, and both explain that they will reply on the day.

The Hou Mansion is still worried about Gu Qi and Gu Ying's marriage. But don't want to, own kid has long been spotted.

While talking, a matchmaker came to propose marriage.

Not only the boys in the Hou Mansion were targeted, but even the boys in the Gu Mansion who hadn't fixed a marriage were favored by civilians and military generals.

At the same time, two matchmakers came to Gu Mansion to propose marriage.

Today, the matchmaker in the capital is really busy, and of course she has made enough money.

Two matchmakers do not represent two families, but four.

These four families took a fancy to Gu Jue, the second young master, Gu Jue, the third young master, Gu Wang, the fifth young master, and Gu Yu, the sixth young master.

Gu Jue and Gu Wang are the daughters of the Dafang, and they have yet to make a marriage.

Gu Xing, Gu Xing is a second-hand concubine.

The two matchmakers, facing the elder Gu Zhiming and the master Gu Zhili, played a three-inch tongue, trying to ensure the success of the matchmaker and get the matchmaker to reward money.

Elder Gu Zhiming and Master Gu are two brothers, one at the head and two older.

Let them deal with officialdom without pressure.

But asking them to deal with matchmakers is really embarrassing them.

The old master patted the table, "Go, invite the big wife and the second wife. So the matchmaker will come. In addition, Jiro, Saburo, Goro, and Rokuro will all be called. It is about their life-long events, so they can also listen to them. "

The servant took the order and left.

The matchmaker flattered: "It's still the master who is considerate."

The elder Gu Zhiming gave a cold snort, despising these matchmakers very much.

The dead can be said to be alive by them, and even a bad person can be named a flower by them. The ugly monsters in their mouths are comparable to Xi Shi Diaochan.

All in all, in the mouth of the matchmaker, there is no truth to be heard.

"Girl, it's okay, a matchmaker came to say kiss to the third master."

Xiaocui hurried back to Zhilan Academy.

Gu Jiu stood up abruptly, "Surely there is a matchmaker coming?"

"It's true. It's not only for the third young master, but also for the second young master, fifth young master, and sixth young master."

Gu Jiu gritted his teeth, "Go, let me go to the front yard and have a look."

If you tell Gu Jue a kiss, if you don't stare at it in person, Gu Jiu feels uneasy.
