Gu Nanyan acted as if she hadn't heard of it, and seeing that she didn't pay attention, another chopstick poked a carrot secretly. Gu Peilan wanted to cry without tears: "Second sister! You did it on purpose!"

Gu Peilan hid quickly, Gu Nanyan's chopsticks were empty, she was not annoyed, and threw them backhand into Gu Yunge's bowl watching the excitement.

Gu Yunge: "..."

Gu Yunge calmly ate the carrot in the bowl that his two younger sisters disliked, trying to be a good baby who is not picky about food.

Gu Nanyan and Gu Peilan looked at each other, and immediately pushed all the dishes they didn't like to eat in front of him, while they hugged the meat and laughed so hard that they couldn't see their teeth.

Seeing that her son was being bullied, Mrs. Guo was immediately "dissatisfied" and said: "You two stinking girls, why are you bullying Geer, he is an older brother... Hurry up and take him back!"

Compared to Gu Nanyan, Gu Peilan was more afraid of Guo Shi, the head of the house, so she shrank her neck immediately and dragged back a plate of vegetables that had been pushed past.

Although Gu Nanyan was not afraid of Guo Shi, she still pushed the meat in front of Gu Yunge.

Gu Yunge was very moved. Ever since Sister Nan was born at home, his mother had never protected him like this.

He opened his mouth, just about to say that as an older brother, he should let his younger sister.

But Guo said with relief: "That's right, those few plates of meat are only worth a few dollars. If you eat too much, you will get angry. It's better to eat green vegetables, which are expensive and beautiful. Your brother is five big, three rough, and a rough guy. He eats such expensive food." Aren't things a waste of money?"

Gu Nanyan: "..."

Gu Peilan: "..."

Gu Yunge: Darling?

Although it is summer now, there are plenty of green vegetables in Jianan country, but the original vegetables in the country are not as good-looking and delicious as those excellent varieties in the Gu Nan tobacco planting base.

Therefore, the high-end restaurants in the capital all get their goods from Guose Tianxiang, and when they are cooked, they can double the price and sell them out.

This restaurant is no exception. Although it is not considered a high-end restaurant, it does what customers ask for, and the selling price is not low.

Among other things, let’s talk about the plate of carrots just now. Each carrot is only as long as a finger. The fried skin is burnt and wrinkled, decorated with green celery and white yam, and sprinkled with a layer of salt particles.

That's it, it will cost 40 taels.

But no matter how small and beautiful a carrot is, it is still a carrot, and Gu Nanyan still doesn't like to eat it.

It's just that she was afraid that Mrs. Guo would chatter endlessly, so she responded with ahh, and when Mrs. Guo looked away, she immediately handed it to Gu Yunge again.

Gu Yunge couldn't stop laughing, and while his mother wasn't paying attention, he ate the whole plate of radishes with doting eyes.

The atmosphere here is very warm, but Master Qiu's side is embarrassing.

Gu Qing didn't intend to keep the guests, so he was about to see them off in a few words.

Mr. Qiu couldn't help it, he was afraid that it would not be easy to miss this reunion, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain why he came.

"The lower officials learned that the third young master Gu has not yet married a wife, and the youngest daughter in the family is not married either. I wonder if there is such a blessing to form a good relationship with the third young master."

There was an instant silence in the private room.

What he said was straightforward, even matchmakers were not so straightforward when they came to the door.

Qiu Rong lowered her head shyly.

Lu Qing frowned, although he didn't like it, but since there was a room away, he couldn't refuse without authorization.

"Marriage matters are the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. I can't decide this matter." This is a tactful rejection.

But Master Qiu would not give up so easily.

"Master Shang Shu said that the official was rude, but I don't know who is Gu Sanshao's mother, and I would like to discuss it with the official."

After finishing speaking, he seemed to remember the difference between men and women, and added with a flattering face: "It just so happens that my wife is here today. If Mrs. Gu San doesn't mind, then let her go to the next door and talk with her. The officer will just wait here."

Everyone: "..."

He would take advantage of the loopholes, let his wife take him away, and then stay on the grounds of the difference between men and women.

The Gu family was naturally unwilling, even Gu Yao and Mrs. Gu frowned.

Mrs. Guo comforted and patted Mrs. Min, who was sitting next to her, who was a little uneasy, and then looked at Mrs. Qiu, who was standing behind Mr. Qiu, who was obviously guilty.

"Let's not talk about getting married. I heard that Mr. Qiu's wife and daughter had a conflict with my younger brother and sister yesterday, and even injured my little niece. Is this true?"

Mrs. Qiu suddenly raised her head when she heard the words, as if she couldn't believe that she knew it was her.

Mr. Qiu was even more puzzled: "Madam, where did you start? Has my wife ever hurt anyone? Did Madam admit to the wrong person?"

"Are you sure you're wrong, Mr. Qiu might as well ask your wife in person." Guo said flatly.

Master Qiu frowned and looked behind him, Madam Qiu quickly denied: "It's nothing, I returned home early yesterday morning, how could I have conflicts with people, let alone beat them."

She clenched her cuff tightly, her eyes wandered, and she finally stabilized her mind, grabbed the hand of her daughter who was also nervous, and squeezed out a smile.

"Ma'am, I'm afraid I have identified the wrong person."

Master Qiu nodded when he heard the words, and agreed: "Although my wife went to the General's Mansion yesterday, she didn't feel well halfway, so she returned home early in the morning."

Gu Qing knew about the injury of his niece and daughter, but he hadn't had time to ask in detail, thinking about seeking justice for Sanfang after today.

Hearing what Guo Shi said at this time, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "Madam, you have figured it out, don't wrong anyone."

Guo glanced at him sideways: "Of course I have asked clearly. Not only have I asked clearly, but I also have witnesses."

Gu Qing nodded and did not ask who the witness was.

"I don't know when Madam Qiu left the General's Mansion yesterday."

"This..." Mrs. Qiu hesitated for a while, "I can't remember either."

This matter cannot be told a lie, there are records of the entry and exit of the general's mansion, so she had no choice but to shirk that she couldn't remember clearly.

She looked in Min's direction, her eyes flickering.

"Third Madam Gu, your son is an outstanding talent. Now he is the second place in high school, and he will be a colleague of our master in the future. Besides, we intended to marry our daughter to your son. How could we do such an enmity?"

"Madam, you should think carefully about who the person who was arguing with you yesterday is. Don't cause misunderstandings and cause the two families to quarrel. Your son has caused this matter before he was appointed as an official. If it gets out, it will be detrimental to his official career."

What she said was so earnest, as if it was all for the other party's benefit.

But whoever was a fool present could immediately hear what she meant.

Gu Congyuan's reputation was already burdened by his father, if he wronged someone without proof, it would be really bad to spread the word.

What's more, he has only half a foot in the officialdom now, and he needs to be kind to others, even if he really suffers, he has to endure it.

Originally, Min wanted to seek justice for her daughter, but when she heard that her son would be hurt, she couldn't help turning pale.

If it was in the past, she would definitely let her daughter endure this tone without saying a word.

But after this period of time, her daughter's weight in her heart has become more and more important. Even if the balance is still slightly tilted towards her son, she doesn't want her daughter to suffer.

And if the son's official career goes well, the daughter can also find a good family.

Min is in a dilemma.

Seeing her like that, Mrs. Guo couldn't help sighing.

Although she said that she wanted to seek justice for Sanfang, it was about Gu Congyuan, and she, an aunt, couldn't add too much to it.

Even if the General's Mansion can protect Gu Congyuan, it can't protect him all the time. The road still needs to be walked by him step by step, just like her family Yunge.

Gu Peilan had her back to the door before, but now she also recognized the two mother and daughter.

Although she was angry, her brother's official career was important, and she couldn't offend his future colleagues just because of her.

Gu Peilan was so angry that she became a puffer fish, but she couldn't do anything, she stared at Qiu Rong with red eyes.

And Qiu Rong also saw her, thinking about Cai Min's hesitation just now, she couldn't help but feel complacent, and raised her eyebrows provocatively.

So what about the granddaughter of the general's mansion, facing her father, she can only swallow her anger.

But this damn girl actually sued Mrs. Gu, after she married brother Cong Yuan, she must be dealt with well and let her fight against him!

Gu Nanyan's position was opposite to Gu Peilan's, and Qiu Rong's proud eyes happened to be caught by her.

She couldn't help raising the corners of her mouth.

"Oh, interesting."
