But Hu had no choice but to give up.

"This is impossible." Qiao Wenzhi waved her hands repeatedly, saying that even if Hu's stuff was too much and there was no room for it, it had nothing to do with her.

"What you said is obvious. I am the cousin-in-law of my dear girl, am I not yours?" Mrs. Hu pretended to be angry and glared at Qiao Wenzhi.

What he said is that if Qiao Wenzhi refuses again, she will be a bit ungrateful.

"While you two are here, you can give me a chance." Mrs. Hu said, raising her hand to ask the people below to bring a brochure, and asked Qiao Guxin and Qiao Wenzhi to help them take a look.

When he opened it, he saw that there were portraits of girls inside. Qiao Gu looked at Mrs. Hu puzzledly, "Sister-in-law, what is this?"

Mrs. Hu was a little embarrassed, "We have been married for a long time, and now we have two children, so I want to give my husband two concubines."

Originally, the mother's side was anxious. If it were an ordinary family, usually when the wife was pregnant, they would have already started making arrangements.

Now that the children are out, it would not be good to continue to dominate Gu Jing like this.

However, Mrs. Hu doesn't want her mother's family to get involved now. A few days ago, the Hu family sent someone over to ask, but Mrs. Hu blocked her away.

The people in this booklet were found by Madam Hu and asked by Madam Zhang. They all came from low backgrounds and seemed kind-hearted.

After all, Mrs. Hu's birth was ordinary. If she found a concubine like that from a high family, Mrs. Hu's temper would definitely be uncontrollable.

Hearing what Hu said, Qiao Guxin frowned unconsciously, "Did cousin agree to this?"

Mrs. Hu smiled slightly and said, "My husband rarely interferes with the affairs of the inner house."

Normally, only when the Hu family was bullied did Gu Jing come forward.

Mrs. Hu really wanted to take a concubine for Gu Jing. She was already luckier than ordinary women, and she was satisfied with her life. As for taking concubines, everyone accepted them, and she definitely didn't want Gu Jing to be different from ordinary people.

Mrs. Hu was willing to do so, and it was hard for Qiao Gu to say anything, but she was not good at reading people either, so she couldn't help much in this matter.

The three of them chatted for a while, and then it was time to eat.

Mrs. Gu had just arrived, and she always wanted to see the children when she came over. On the table, all the adults had no time to chat and were all surrounding the two children.

After the meal, they didn't talk like before, but they dispersed after the meal. Naturally, they were tired from the long journey.

Originally, Qiao Guxin wanted to return to the Duke's mansion as soon as possible, but Shen Qiuhe insisted that Qiao Guxin send Gu family home first. After all, after being gone for so many days, Gu family must have missed Qiao Guxin.

Although the He family was also waiting, but after all, the He family could see Shen Qiuhe every day, Qiao Guxin was different here.

Naturally, Ms. Gu wanted to shirk it, feeling that it was not etiquette, but Shen Qiuhe insisted that it would be inappropriate for her mother-in-law to always argue with her uncle, so Ms. Gu let Shen Qiuhe make the decision.

Sitting in the carriage, Gu looked Qiao Guxin up and down, "I've lost weight, but I've lost a lot."

Qiao Guxin pinched her face, "Did mother see it wrong?" Look at the flesh on this face.

Seeing that Qiao Guxin was still in the mood to joke, Mrs. Gu immediately rolled her eyes at Qiao Guxin, then lowered her voice and said, "It's hard for me to ask you in the letter. Has your second uncle changed his mind?"

Logically speaking, Qiao Wenzhi had come all the way to keep the person in front of him, instead of just staying for two days and then sending the person away.

Especially seeing that Qiao Wenzhi's eyes are dull now, and she feels self-absorbed in her heart, she must be suffering from love.

This made him even more afraid to mention Feng Zhaoan in front of Qiao Wenzhi.

Qiao Guxin sighed softly, "My sister-in-law is indeed poor."

Ordinary people would never imagine that no matter how poor he was, he was an official of the imperial court and how poor he could be. However, Feng Zhaoan was a rare good official. It was absolutely impossible for him to have a mouth full of fat while the people had no food to eat.

But when this topic came up, Qiao Gu couldn't help but ask Gu, "Why does my cousin suddenly want to take a concubine?"

Mrs. Gu shook her head. It is said that every family has its own difficulty in reciting sutras. Mrs. Hu has found a good family, but God cannot see this person being perfect. He has such a natal family, and he comes to urge Mrs. Hu every three days.

Tell Gu Jing about taking concubines.

Mrs. Hu was just out of anger. She accepted the concubine, but she didn't need anyone from the Hu family. If she made her mother-in-law so angry, even if the two families didn't interact with each other, Mrs. Hu would be able to live in peace and quiet.

However, after being married for so long, it was okay to take concubines, so Zhang agreed.

I found some honest girls and let Mr. Hu choose.

After all, it is the Hu family who will get along with these people in the future. Fate is also called fate.

Anyway, everyone is like this, and Gu doesn't care.

For a family like the Gu family, if they had one or two concubines, they would have a quiet backyard.

After seeing Mrs. Gu back to the Hou Mansion, the weather changed. It looked gloomy and the wind seemed to be blowing stronger than before.

When we arrived outside the gate of the Duke's Mansion, snow had already begun to fall on the horizon.

As soon as Shen Qiuhe opened the curtain of the carriage, he quickly shrank back when the wind blew him. He asked Wang Si to have someone send him a thick cloak and put it on Qiao Guxin before getting off the carriage again.

The first snowfall in winter will naturally not be heavy. A gust of wind will bring a burst of snow, and it will probably stop after a while.

However, the hair and brows were still a little lowered. The person below quickly ran to bring the oil-paper umbrella, but was blocked by Shen Qiuhe. He looked sideways at Qiao Guxin and said with a smile, "We are covered in snow together, and we grow old together."

On the contrary, it has some artistic conception.

Qiao Guxin gave Shen Qiuhe a blank look, stretched out his hand to let the rosary quickly take the oil-paper umbrella and put it on his head. He turned around and glanced at the people behind him, "Look at Master Shen, you are really lucky. So many people are with you."

, let’s grow old together.”

The beautiful mood was shattered in an instant.

puff!

Especially behind him, Wang Sixiao’s voice was still so loud.

Shen Qiuhe turned around and glared coldly, "You go to the house now and have a look. Let the people below take care of the peacock carefully. Don't freeze to death."

After all, this was specially sent by His Highness the Crown Prince.

Wang Si opened his mouth wide and said, "Master."

It's such a tossing thing. The ride on the horse was bumpy all the way, and it felt like the back of my head was split into five pieces. I finally landed on the ground, and now I have to run over again.

By the time we get back, it will probably be dark.

Moreover, on this day in the capital, how could a peacock be frozen to death? If Shen Qiuhe hadn't been the master, he would have asked him if he was stupid!

But, whoever is the master, Wang Si was unwilling to do so, so he had no choice but to go.

Rosary made a face at Wang Si beside him, and said silently that he deserved it, who allowed him to talk so much?

When you return to the Duke's Mansion, you can't go back to the second room. You have to go to the He family to ask for permission first.

Before reaching the courtyard of the main house, I saw Nanny Lu waiting there, "The young master and the young lady are finally back. The old lady has been out two or three times."

Smiling as if chatting casually, but also a bit complaining.

Shen Qiuhe hummed, and then replied lightly, "Didn't Madam send someone to deliver a message, saying that we would come back later?"
