Chapter 356

Mrs. Liu nodded, "That's it. When Zi Zheng came to look for me, Manager Liu was reporting to me on the affairs of the government."

"Zizheng just asked Manager Liu. Some time ago, Manager Liu discovered that a servant in the mansion had mentioned this matter." Mrs. Liu did not tell the attendant about Liu Zizheng.

The attendant followed Liu Zizheng for a long time and was very loyal to Liu Zizheng, and he never led Liu Zizheng wrongly.

He didn't talk nonsense in front of Liu Zizheng.

This time, Mrs. Liu did not blame Liu Zizheng for reminding her.

What's more, Liu Zizheng had personally begged her not to tell anyone about his attendants.

Mrs. Liu could not do anything to Butler Liu, but she could easily find a reason to punish a small attendant beside Liu Zizheng.

Therefore, Mrs. Liu concealed the matter of Liu Zizheng's attendant and directly talked about Butler Liu.

"Bold!" Liu Hanlin was really angry when he heard this. "Our two families are neighbors. We are close to each other, so words can easily spread. They are still gossiping about Beppu in the house."

"If the Gu family finds out about this, I will be completely embarrassed!" Liu Hanlin said angrily, "General Gu is famous for protecting his wife. He can even protect his wife in front of the second prince of Turks without hesitation. Wife. If someone in our house gossips about Mrs. Gu San, if he knows about it, he will have to read my book!"

"No, he should have known about it. The two children of the Gu family came here specifically to tell Mrs. Gu. They clearly wanted to clear Mrs. Gu's name." Liu Hanlin paced back and forth anxiously, "Maybe I will go to court tomorrow. General Gu will take a copy of it."

"Madam, is it still too late to prepare an apology? Follow me to Gu's mansion to apologize." Liu Hanlin said.

"Although the Gu family knows about it, it was not passed on by my servants. If it is not resolved, it will be useless even if I apologize today." Mrs. Liu sighed.

"Why is this?" Liu Hanlin asked, "Is there anything else?"

Mrs. Liu then told Mrs. Liu that Mrs. Liu had directly gossiped in front of Mrs. Gu.

Liu Hanlin knew that Mrs. Liu didn't like Mrs. Liu very much.

It was okay at first, but then Mrs. Liu started to take care of the house, and Mrs. Liu didn't like everything about Mrs. Liu.

People often say something bad about Mrs. Liu outside, but Mrs. Liu manages the Liu Mansion in an orderly manner.

Therefore, no one believed Mrs. Liu's words.

On the contrary, when Mrs. Liu talked about this, she regarded Mrs. Liu's behavior as a joke.

Liu Hanlin stopped Mrs. Liu from doing this more than once.

But every time she finished talking, Mrs. Liu could calm down for a while.

After a while, he started talking again.

Liu Hanlin was tired.

Unexpectedly, this time, Mrs. Liu held back a big one.

Liu Hanlin immediately said: "I will talk to my mother now! Does she still want me to be an official?"

Liu Hanlin walked out of the door quickly, then turned back to Mrs. Liu and said, "Prepare some appropriate gifts. After dinner is over, we will go to the Gu Mansion to apologize."

"Okay." Mrs. Liu nodded.

When Liu Hanlin and Mrs. Liu were there, it was inevitable that they would have some quarrels with Mrs. Liu.

When Liu Hanlin came back, his face was still full of anger.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Liu asked.

"My mother still agreed this time, but I don't know how long she can hold on this time." Liu Hanlin said with a headache, "Are you ready for the etiquette?"

Mrs. Liu nodded, "We are ready. It is not good to prepare something too expensive. One is because our family's grade is here, and it would be inappropriate to prepare something expensive. Second, we are afraid that if it is too expensive, the Gu family will not accept it. I heard Zizheng said, Gu Baiyuan likes calligraphy, Gu Baijin likes to study utensils, and Gu Xiuxiu likes painting. "So I prepared a calligraphy by Liu Zihou, a set of "Zi Ren Legacy", and a painting of ladies by Zhou Fang." The lady said.

These are all available in the Liu Mansion. They are not very expensive and can be bought in bookstores on the market.

But because these are exactly in line with the preferences of Gu Boyuan, Gu Baijin and Gu Xiuxiu, it can be seen that the preparations were made with care.

The Gu family should be able to feel their sincerity.

Mrs. Liu and Liu Hanlin were having dinner in the hall, and Liu Zizheng was also there.

Mrs. Liu is older and her dining time is different from theirs.

Therefore, except for festivals, I don't eat with them on weekdays.

Liu Hanlin was still thinking about going to Gu's house to apologize later, and at the same time he could smell the smell of barbecue coming from Gu's house.

The aroma of charcoal barbecue skewers is so lethal that it can drift over from several courtyards away.

Liu Hanlin ate the food cooked by his own chef, and suddenly felt bland and tasteless.

After eating a few mouthfuls, I couldn't eat anymore because I really had no appetite.

Mrs. Liu also has no appetite.

When Liu Zizheng finished eating, they put down their chopsticks and asked someone to put the things away.

"Gu Man hasn't finished eating yet?" Liu Hanlin asked.

Mother Jiang next to Mrs. Liu said: "I just asked someone to take a peek at the wall that separates Gu's house. I can still hear faint sounds of talking and laughing, and I can also hear someone saying 'delicious, delicious', so I responded." It’s not finished.”

Liu Hanlin stretched his head to look outside, turned back and said to Mrs. Liu: "You said... would it be rude if we go over at this time?"

"This... must be rude." Mrs. Liu said.

How can anyone come to someone's door while they are having dinner?

They planned to come to the door to apologize later, but it was already rude to have gone so suddenly without posting a message.

Originally they thought they would go after the Gu family had finished their meal, but time was tight and there was no time to post.

But looking at it now, it will still be some time before the Gu family finishes their meal, so it should be too late to post now.

So, Mrs. Liu hurriedly sent someone to Gu's house to deliver a message, saying that they would come to visit later, but she didn't know if it was possible.

After some time, the servant came back with a reply from the Gu family.

In the reply, he welcomed them to his house and asked if they could have a meal.

If it's useless, if you don't mind, would you like to go to Gu's house to have dinner with them now?

After Liu Zizheng heard this, he immediately said: "Go, mother, let's go!"

Mrs. Liu said: "Aren't you full just now?"

"But the smell of the barbecue next door is so delicious. As I smell it, I feel hungry again." Liu Zizheng said.

Mrs. Liu said, "If you're hungry, let the kitchen bring you some more."

"Mom..." Liu Zizheng pouted, grabbing Mrs. Liu's arm and acting coquettishly, "The rice doesn't taste good, I just... just want to try that barbecue."

"Gu Baiyuan and Gu Baijin said that it is different from the sizzling barbecue before Gu's snacks. But they refused to tell me what it looked like. The smell now is indeed very different." Liu Zizheng was looking at it eagerly. Looking at Mrs. Liu, "Mother, aren't you curious?"
