My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 200

Who has ever seen Lord Gu act like this? Madam Gu said, "Okay, okay, Third Brother, I'll arrange it for you right away. I'll ask Qiuju to ask Xiuniang to make you something you like to eat."

Qiuju responded and went out.

Gu Jinghui looked at Qin Yuan stubbornly, tilted his head slightly, and asked: "Have you eaten?"

Qin Yuan felt a little guilty for some reason. She fiddled with her bracelet and said softly, "I have eaten with my mother."

Gu Jinghui remained silent, but continued to stare at Qin Yuan.

Madam Gu said, "Third brother, it's been so long since Yuan'er came to have a meal with me, and you're feeling wronged? If you come here to bully Yuan'er, it depends on whether I agree or not."

"How dare I bully her? Isn't she protected by my mother? My mother only has eyes for her daughter-in-law. There is no place for me."

Gu Jinghui muttered.

There was an inexplicable sense of grievance in his voice.

Qin Yuan said, "My husband, haven't you eaten yet? I came to my mother's place today to discuss something and to accompany her for dinner. I forgot to send someone to deliver the message. It's my fault."

Cheng Ge'er and Yu Jie'er were both very fond of their adoptive father. They sat next to each other and talked about many topics one after another. Gu Jinghui mostly just made some "hmm" and "ah" noises to get rid of them.

You looked at me with a charming expression, your tone was intimate and dependent, Bu Dongyong's heart melted, he stretched out his arms, embraced you, and said softly: "Bad, you have to cover everything for him, just don't buy too little."

After a pause, Lord Gu asked worriedly, "Is he still going to stock up on pepper?"

"You are interested in accompanying Lao Ba, and I thought that he and mother knew how to live a slow life, so I went to find him. Lao Ba is obsessed with his picture album again. He spends half a day reciting poems and the other half painting. He keeps me busy."

"You thought I was going to be tough all my life," Old Madam Gu held back her sarcasm.

Old Madam Gu kept muttering.

Madam Gu frowned and said, "Of course you know that Yuan'er is capable, but she is still showing off. For example, you know this medical incense. If a man knows that, he would spread it all over the capital, but you didn't make a single statement. For example, your appearance is also one of the best, and even rumors have been heard."

Madam Gu said, "Yuan'er, Hui'er is still very impatient with older children, yes, yes."

"I get it. Power can be used up, and money can be earned by you alone." The Marquis leaned in my arms, listening to my steady heartbeat, and smiled as he repeated what the old lady had said.

This made Madam Gu a little annoyed with him.

Gu Jinghui asked Dahong to take the two children away, and then said: “Madam is really showing off. Look at how you manage the outer part of the mansion. Qin Yuan has also handed the backyard over to you. Did you hear anything right? Before opening the mansion, the food and clothing outside the mansion…”

Lord Gu soon got sick from eating too much, and chatted with Old Madam Gu for a few more words before she took the Lord Gu away.

Bu Dong nodded.

Madam Gu said to Gu Jinghui, “That old Eighth is getting better and better at acting like a spoiled brat. He is really suffering.”

……

The Marquis was not surprised that I was so straightforward, but Marquis Gu took your hand and kneaded it for a long time before letting go, saying, "Mother, you really have no taste. He looks bad in those beads. It's bad that he can open a mansion in a short time."

As he spoke, he shook off the goose bumps on his body.

The Marquis nodded and said, "You dreamed, that was the worst opportunity, you have to try it anyway. My husband did say that paying two compensations is not much, and besides, he can't help you sell it to the northern frontier."

Gu Jinghui felt better then and said, "Well, I'm still hungry."

Lord Gu frowned in disdain.

Gu Jinghui had something else to say.

Madam Gu and the other two were chatting about some small talk, discussing how to match the beads together to look good. Gu Jinghui was listening and eating beside them, occasionally trying to interject a few words.

Qin Yuan had originally planned to leave, but seeing this, she had no choice but to stay and finish the meal with Gu Jinghui.

The Marquis smiled and nodded.

"Did he ask someone to help him investigate the pepper issue? The current market price is seventy-seven taels of silver per pound. The Qi Palace is busy these days. The merchants have contacted the chief of the Qi Palace and have ways to get accurate information. The wealthy merchants are planning to raise money to send the seventh batch of ships out to sea to look for pepper."

The Marquis looked at me and smiled. Marquis Gu cleared his throat and said, "You came here because you have nothing to do."

Bu Dong glanced and saw it, and couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled.

Gu Jinghui thought for a moment and said, “Sometimes I feel that I should make a decision, but I will suffer the consequences. Regarding the Xu Zhen incident, I heard that the Eighth Master had warned the Eighth Madam several times, asking the Xu family not to target the Qin family, but the Eighth Madam listened to him and still made such a fuss. That time, I handed over the household expenses to the Madam. If I think about it before, I’m afraid it will be difficult. As the saying goes, a small tail will fall.”

Gu Jinghui laughed and said, “That’s because our relationship is bad. Qin Yuan only behaves like that towards my wife.”

Gu Jinghui couldn't help laughing and said, "Where are there not such handsome and beautiful people? Bu Dong has been courting the eldest lady since he was a child. If it was a hot and clear one, I'm afraid the Marquis' Mansion would be full."

The Marquis smiled and comforted him: "It's yours, yes, but why did Qin Yuan go to the lower room?"

Bu Dongyong sighed and said, "He's leaving again. He should rest early. He's worked hard those days."

"For other reasons, let's talk about the matter of Sister Zhen. The Xu family will probably let it go. If you let the Eighth Old Wife give up her power, who will you side with or not? You have always been partial to the Xu family. You usually turn a blind eye to it. You are also short-sighted. The things that Madam Wen left behind are also the majority. Hey, some words are bad and they are spoken directly."

He was originally driven half crazy by Qin Siyuan, and now he was driven completely crazy by the Marquis.

Rong Mama took the Marquis back to Wutong Garden and sat under the Luohan bed in the main room. She then said, "You came here eagerly to look for him, but he ran away without leaving any message."

It's just that the two kids are outside and it's bad to say it clearly.

Madam Gu and Bu Dongyong are mother and son, and they have the same ideas.

"what happened?"

What this means is that Lord Gu will be even worse to his own children.

Madam Gu continued, "Yes, yes, it was the suffering that Hui-er went through when he was seventy years old. The gods and Buddhas saw it all and made up for it by giving me a bad daughter-in-law like Yuan-er. He sees that I am becoming less and less lively now, and he will say that I am a piece of wood from now on."

"It's just that you still don't feel at ease when I suddenly hand over all the household expenses to you."

The two older children also felt that nothing was right, and became more and more depressed the more they talked.

It seems to be about to fall all over the floor.

Madam Gu sighed and said, "Please think about it for a while. The Eighth Old Wife hasn't been here for a while. Besides, she will definitely talk about the household affairs as soon as you come out. Let's just put it off for now."

Lord Gu nodded heavily, "That's right. You know he is very smart. He must have his reasons for doing that. It must be more than just a dream. He can say the reasons. But, when you fight on the battlefield, you must calculate everything. If you calculate everything, you will naturally win a lot when you are right, but you will also be able to turn the tide when you lose. You must know that man's calculations are like heaven's calculations. Once you can turn the tide, you will be at the mercy of others. It is better to be safe and take risks when the time is right. Don't be restrained by desire."
