Chapter 132 I am inconvenient
Madam He was afraid that Madam Zheng would be nervous, so she patted her hand and said comfortingly, "You have done everything you can do."
It’s not a big deal, so do you really have to kowtow and admit your mistake?
In He's eyes, there is no need for the Duke's Mansion to be humble and petty in front of the Marquis' Mansion.
After hearing He's words, Zheng felt confident. She lowered her head and took the clothes from her maid's hand, and put them on for Zheng herself.
When Mrs. Gu came over, Mrs. He had just finished cleaning up. She immediately asked Mrs. Gu to sit down, "I have been injured by Fenghan for the past two days and I haven't picked you up. Don't blame me."
When speaking, He always chooses something nice to say.
Mrs. Gu smiled and waved her hand, "That's what I'm saying. If I still pick on you when you're not feeling well, am I still a human being?" Then she sat forward again and said, "It's you, don't worry about my abruptness."
Gu Shi was speaking more enthusiastically than before.
Come here now, wearing a maroon little coat, with a shining gold hairpin on your head, you look like you are wearing a war robe.
Mr. He covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed twice, "Let's not say such things."
Mrs. Zheng was busy serving the pastries. Mrs. Gu glanced at Mrs. Zheng and saw that her eyes were calm, which showed that she had been having a good time these days.
At least, she didn't show even a hint of unnaturalness.
The people in Guogong Mansion are truly generous!
He picked up the tea lid and fiddled with it gently, "Why don't you look at Mr. Shen? It's so cold. Could it be that Dali Temple has some important matters?"
"No, he has to take care of everything inside and outside Dali Temple. Even when he was feeling unwell, he didn't rest for a few days." Mr. He smiled and nodded. He always wanted to praise his son a few words, but after he finished speaking
It is better to ask someone to invite Shen Qiuhe to come and see him.
Gu plucked the tea leaves but didn't drink it, and put the lid on it again, "That's right, Mr. Shen is one of the best among men. He is in a high position at a young age. Our family is Wenqing. If I can be half as good as Mr. Shen in the future, I will appreciate it."
Amitabha."
It was rare for Mrs. Gu to praise Shen Qiuhe.
Even though it doesn't sound right, people are really praising Shen Qiuhe.
He wanted to praise the number one scholar again, and the two complimented each other happily, hiding all their thoughts.
When Shen Qiuhe came over, he could still hear a few cheers and laughter.
The waiter below lifted the curtain and reported to Mrs. He. Under the gaze of the two mothers, Shen Qiuhe walked in slowly, raising his hand to act politely.
"Qiu He looks like he's lost a lot of weight." When they sat down, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but sigh, "Why is someone so young so sick?"
She still remembered the last time, Mr. He said that Shen Qiuhe was ill.
Shen Qiuhe raised his arms and clasped his fists, "It's okay. I think it will be fine in a few days."
Because he came in from the outside, he was already uncomfortable with the cold and hot. Now his throat started to feel itchy again when he spoke. Shen Qiuhe quickly picked up the tea cup and poured the water directly into it. He just wanted to get rid of this uncomfortable feeling as soon as possible.
Press it down.
Seeing that everyone was here, Mrs. Gu turned slightly to Mrs. He, "Madam, don't blame me for being entangled. It's just that parents can't help but worry. I came here today to ask, what about the Zheng family?"
How did you deal with it, girl?"
Then he glanced sideways at Shen Qiuhe, "I also want to ask Mr. Shen whether you two are in love or whether Miss Zheng is unilaterally entangled. There were many people the day before, so it was difficult to ask too carefully. Today I specifically want to hear from Shen.
Second Young Master’s meaning.”
After hearing this, Mr. He immediately became unwilling. It was difficult to speak, and he was also aggressive last time.
puff!
But Shen Qiuhe, because he was drinking in a hurry, the tea leaves got stuck in his throat and he squirted.
Zheng stood up calmly, "I have already asked about this matter. It may be a misunderstanding. I specifically apologized for meeting Miss Qiao yesterday."
Speaking of apologizing, Ms. Zheng immediately asked someone to fetch the bracelet, "It's just that Miss Qiao said that this gift was too expensive, so she refused to accept it. I originally wanted to have it sent to the Hou Mansion, but I didn't want my wife to come here. If It’s convenient, madam.”
Now that I have said it clearly, I need to let Gu take care of it.
Gu didn't even raise her eyelids, she tugged on the handkerchief with her fingers, and after a long time she laughed, "I'm inconvenient! There are some words that I shouldn't have said, but it's just that the Crown Prince's wife kept showing up again and again, so I don't think it's a bit excessive. Have you? Besides, this kind of thing is what I want to do with the Duke’s office. Why does the Crown Prince’s wife see our family alone so many times? Is it because she is easy to deceive? "
"Madam, I misunderstood." Ms. Zheng quickly wanted to explain.
Gu raised her hand to stop her, and then glanced at Shen Qiuhe, "I just want to know what Second Young Master Shen thinks, and how the Duke's Palace will deal with this Miss Zheng?"
If Shen Qiuhe is unintentional, that person should be kicked out. If the two of them are in love, then there is another matter.
Mrs. He covered her mouth with a handkerchief, "Qiu He made it clear that day that he had no such intentions for Miss Zheng. As for the rest, Miss Zheng is my daughter-in-law's family. I would like to advise you not to be aggressive!"
The words were also extremely tough.
Hearing He's words, Zheng, who was originally hunched over, stood up straight.
Mrs. Gu glanced at the people around her and clicked her tongue twice. It's really interesting. The whole family worked together to squeeze out an outsider like her. If they hadn't been prepared, they might have slapped the table and started to curse.
You have all done such shameless things in your own houses. Are you being aggressive?
She took a deep breath, with a smile on her face, "So, is it so difficult to ask Mr. Shen to say a word?"
Shen Qiuhe took another sip of water, not because he didn't want to talk, but because he was too uncomfortable. After he calmed down, he still stood up and coughed a few times before saying, "In reply to Madam, this marriage is a gift from the Holy One." , I will restrain myself and observe etiquette and will never do anything that will bring shame to the two houses. As for how Miss Zheng handled it, she is my sister-in-law, so I can’t say much. I can only promise that if I see this person, I will stay away. Don’t mess with me!”
Shen Qiuhe's attitude was also very clear. He didn't want to pay attention to this person, but he would also give Zheng family face.
Gu lowered her eyes slightly. Although the Holy One did not name anyone to inherit the Duke's mansion, according to etiquette it should be the eldest grandson. However, the child was still young at the time, and the Holy One said that being the Duke was not only a matter for the Shen family, but also for the imperial court. , it is impossible for a child with a yellow mouth to become the Duke of the country.
It would be fine if there was no one in the Shen family, but the Shen family still has an outstanding second son. Even if the Duke's family is modest, the Holy Father only said that when the eldest grandson grows up, if he has good character, he can do what the Shen family wants.
Even so, the children have not grown up, so everyone naturally feels that the head of the Shen family must be Shen Qiuhe. As long as he wants to drive away Miss Zheng, he will have to leave.
It's not like people are closely related to each other, they are just members of the same clan. It's hard to say that even Sanfu is not called a relative anymore. Shen Qiuhe is not willing to expose such an outsider with ulterior motives, and Mrs. Gu will definitely feel unhappy.
