They emphasized that Gu Xueer was alone, so they could eliminate any scandal. Even if Gu Xueer was alone, if she couldn't find her for a long time, it would still be a scandal in the end.

There are so many misfortunes, but it is just misfortune.

Old Mrs. Ji sat on the kang and didn't speak much, and seemed to slowly recognize this possibility.

The next day, Gu Xueer's body was discovered in a remote small valley outside Huojiazhuang.

Gu Xueer's death was not a murder or suicide. Instead, she was fascinated by the recent local legendary Wong Tai Sin, who fell from the mountain and fell to death.

This is an unfortunate thing, for the Ji family, the Huo family, and Gu Xueer themselves, but the world is impermanent, and there is nothing we can do about it.

The Huo family held a funeral for Gu Xueer. The funeral was not luxurious, but it was also quite decent. Gu Xueer's body was buried in the Huo family's ancestral tomb, and the tombstone was engraved with the words "Huomen Gu Xueer".

In the future, Huo Erlang would marry and have children again, and he would call Gu Xueer, who was in the nine springs, and he would call him Auntie. Gu Xueer was at the Huo family’s ancestral tomb, so he would not have to worry about not having four seasons of sacrifice.

After Gu Xueer's funeral, the Ji family appeased Huo Erlang and told Huo Erlang about good news.

As long as Huo Erlang passed the 100-day mourning period, he would be betrothed the eldest maid, Shaoyao, beside Mrs. Ji, to fill in the room.

Gu Xueer's original dowry was all included in Shaoyao's makeup box.

The Huo family is no longer the attentiveness of the Ji family, but because of the relationship between Shaoyao and Old Lady Ji, they can still walk around the Ji family frequently.

Although Shaoyao is a little older, her appearance and temperament are better than Gu Xueer.

The Huo family was originally planning to endure a disaster, but unexpectedly, this was the result. They deeply felt the kindness of the Ji family. Wherever they went, they would praise the Ji family's kindness and mercy.

Contrary to Master Ji’s concern, Gu Xueer’s affairs did not affect his career and Master Ji Er, and at the same time helped Xinhuatang’s reputation.

Master Ji was very satisfied with this matter, and at the same time, he secretly felt that Master Ji Er was even more afraid of him.

The matter between Gu Xueer has been settled at this point.

"Gu Xueer is dead, and she is over. In the future, no matter who she is, she can no longer use this identity to make a fuss!" Yan Huatang and Ji Xiaotang tried to try the newly tailed dress in front of a tall dress mirror.

Tomorrow she was going to go to Prince Su's mansion for a banquet. A day in advance, with the assistance of Mrs. Ji and Madam Cheng, she had to prepare her clothes neatly.

"Even Miss Xue'er herself, she can't." Madam Cheng leaned over and tidied up the corners of Ji Xiaotang's skirt and said in a low voice.

"That's right." Ji Xiaotang smiled.

Gu Xueer’s most valuable identity is her niece of Mrs. Ji and cousin of Ji Xiaotang.

Without this identity, Gu Xueer's value in the eyes of some people will be greatly reduced. Gu Xueer's lethality to the Ji family has been reduced by at least 90%.

Isn’t Gu Xueer going to run? Ji Xiaotang let her run away, and then she took off the firewood from the cauldron with a trick, making it easy to make.

"She is ungrateful and ambitious, and never knows what she is doing. It's just a matter of being in the countryside. Now that she comes to the capital, it will be a hidden danger for us sooner or later." Ji Xiaotang tried her dress and asked Madam Cheng to put it away, then sat on the couch and drank tea slowly.

And this hidden danger cannot be removed because of Mrs. Ji.

Ji Xiaotang has been giving Gu Xueer a chance, but Gu Xueer finally chose to betray the Ji family.

Gu Xueer's death largely eliminated this hidden danger, and at the same time, it could also make some bets for those who took Gu Xueer away.

Seeing that the bricks that could pry open the Ji family's door in his hand turned into rubble, that person's mood would not be good at this moment.

"I just don't know who got the first move. I'm worried now, we're afraid we won't have a chance to know in the future." Ji Xiaotang sighed softly, and his tone sounded a little regretful.

The next day, March 15th, the date agreed upon by Zheng Gui.

Ji Xiaotang cleaned up neatly and set up the county lord's carriage. Ji Xiaolian's carriage was behind him, and rushed straight to Prince Su's mansion.

Get off in front of the second gate of Su Wang Mansion, and changed into a warm sedan chair to the Wang Mansion Garden. Zheng Gui took Zheng Zi and two beautiful women in full dress to greet each other. Everyone greeted each other, and Zheng Gui took Ji Xiaotang's hand intimately to the garden warm pavilion.

The guests who arrived first were already waiting in the warmhouse, and Ji Xiaotang had met Yang Pianpian, Yang Shanshan and Wu Jiayan again.

When everyone sat down and talked, a little girl walked to Zheng Gui, and didn't know what she said in a low voice.

Zheng Gui smiled, turned to Ji Xiaotang, his eyes flashed: "Good news, another good guest is here!"
