Traveling to Daliang Kingdom starts from falling into the water

Chapter 895 What else?
Did that sickly guy really forget that he had such a childhood sweetheart and his master's niece, or was he hiding his identity in Gao's mansion and observing secretly?
Could it be that he really has no ambition and doesn't want to take the opportunity to personally observe his father and father-in-law's words and deeds so as to predict his chances of success when he meets old friends again?
"anything else?"

"More?" Gu Erzhu laughed and shook his head, "Too many, too many to count. It was fine before Dajiang proposed, but after that day, the number of invitations was overwhelming."

It can be imagined that the current emperor originally intended to focus all attention on this marriage, with Qi Shishu in the open and Mr. Qi secretly acting in the south of the Yangtze River.

In the master's words, if issuing an imperial decree to grant a marriage was not too unusual, he would not have rushed to Yangzhou Prefecture on the pretext that his master was unwell.

Moreover, even if there was no imperial decree to grant the marriage, the highly respected old lady who came to the Qi Mansion to propose marriage was not an ordinary person. Even the mother of the Minister of Personnel appeared.

"Like the Princess Hui'an you mentioned earlier, her princess residence is on the same street as the imperial residence that San Ya owns now, so they are very close.

There are two houses on the same street, one on the east side and the other on the west side. San Ya's house is on the west side, and across the street behind it is the former residence of Duke Liang.

The Duke of Liang's Mansion and the current Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion are on the same street. Further back, almost next to the imperial palace, are the princes' palaces.

On the second day after Dajiang proposed marriage, the old lady of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion said that she was finally free, so she sent a message to your master's wife to invite your mother and your mother-in-law to come and visit.

Also, the eldest princess is no longer in charge of affairs. I heard that she and her husband both live in a villa outside the city, but her eldest daughter-in-law still comes to your husband's house in person.

Because she was a female family member, I didn't see her. But I heard the eldest son who came with her mentioned that his father would be back home in a few days, and he invited me and your father-in-law to visit his home.

Yes, Dajiang knows more people. Your father-in-law and I don't want to go out, and we have postponed everything we can. But Dajiang is different. Those young masters have come to arrest him. "

"My father-in-law was frightened."

"Of course!" Gu Erzhu imitated the expressions of his father-in-law and made himself laugh, "Your father-in-law, Dad is really convinced.

If it were an ordinary person who was so popular, he would have forgotten everything else, but he was still always nervous and had to ask me to check every little thing, which was very rare.

And your mother-in-law, it's hard to describe this person. She is such a show-off. Even your father-in-law thinks she can't control her mouth, but this time there's really nothing to say about her.

Originally, your mother was worried that your mother-in-law was being flattered by others and might offend someone by speaking too quickly. Even your father-in-law asked me and your mother to tell them to keep a closer eye on her.

But guess what, your mother-in-law is like a different person, she is so calm and composed, you can't tell she is her usual self, she doesn't even laugh much and she covers her mouth with a fan when she laughs."

Gu Wenxuan tried his best to hold back his laughter, "Are you scared?"

"A little bit, but more often than not she knows how to restrain herself. For example, she was timid in front of Madam Gao, which was inevitable, but not all the people she met were noble ladies.

For example, Zhao Laosi's wife took the opportunity to accompany Mrs. Qian's mother, that is, Old Madam Wang, to come to the house with her sister-in-law. Your mother-in-law's status is no lower than Zhao Laosi's wife.

You have to know that in the capital, your mother-in-law is the second wife of the Zhou family. Just because the Zhou family still lives in the former Liangguo Mansion, she can never be compared with the fourth wife of Zhao Laosi, the fourth wife of the Zhao family.

Just like San Ya has a mansion in the imperial city, her value is different. Although she does not have the title of princess or county princess, everyone knows that even a princess or county princess cannot get that mansion even if she wants it.

Even the emperor has recognized San Ya as the eldest daughter of Duke Liang. San Ya still wants to return the house to her uncle's eldest granddaughter in the future, which is difficult.

According to what I heard from Master Gao, since the day the house fell into the hands of San Ya's master, no one could take it away unless San Ya could not give birth to a daughter. It was said that the emperor had spoken with great authority, and the Ministry of Rites had made a record of it. If it could not be passed on to San Ya's eldest daughter, it would be taken back by the court first and then it would be seen if it could be returned to the Zhou family.

However, judging from the tone of Mr. Gao, the house was passed down from San Ya to her master, and it is unlikely to be returned to the eldest daughter of the Zhou family."

Gu Wenxuan listened quietly and said, "Nine out of ten times, it has something to do with the house that my wife's master originally inherited, which was not the eldest legitimate daughter of the Duke of Liang's mansion?"

"That's about what I meant. As for why when it was passed to Master Sanya, it didn't follow the old rules and went back to the eldest daughter of the Duke of Liang's mansion?"

Too complicated!

Gu Erzhu shook his head, "I guess there is some other reason behind this, and now only your husband knows it, just like your husband and his family all moved into the original Liangguo Mansion.

I just don't understand how this is any different from not having the title of Duke of Liang back. I don't know what's going on. Your husband hasn't even been conferred the title of Duke of Liang, so why did he accept the imperial decree and move in?"

Yes, it is said that even the structure of the mansion has not been changed until now. Not only do you not understand, Dad, I am also confused.

"I'm getting off topic. I just heard from your mother that Zhao Laosi's wife avoided her eldest sister-in-law and invited your mother-in-law to visit her home, and your mother-in-law responded very well."

This is not surprising, Gu Wenxuan shook his head, "My mother-in-law has become more knowledgeable in the past two years. In the first month of this year, my mother-in-law and my mother attended a banquet invited by the county lady.

Also, my teacher's wife is a very thoughtful person. She must have given my mother-in-law a lot of guidance in private. If my mother-in-law couldn't learn from her, she would send her confidants to help her.

In addition, Dajiang is engaged this time to Uncle Qi, the apple of my mother-in-law's eye, whom my mother-in-law wants but dares not say out loud. My mother-in-law would rather die than bring shame to her son.

My mother-in-law is not a very smart person, but she has a very strange life. Whenever something unexpected happens in her life, even God helps her.

Originally, she was destined to be sold to an old man as a concubine at a high price, but her rotten old father exchanged her for the Zhou family in disguise for the marriage of his widowed cousin's lame son.

Coincidentally, Zhou Laosan, who was not much older than my father-in-law, had been engaged for less than a month, otherwise my mother-in-law would have almost become Zhou Laosan's wife.

How can Zhou Laosan be compared with my father-in-law? Let’s not talk about anything else. My mother-in-law gave birth to three daughters in a row, and my father-in-law even coaxed my mother-in-law to be more open-minded.

This is rare. If it was Zhou Laosan, would he still coax her? He would slap her or kick her, which means he loves his wife. It is destined that my mother-in-law found a good husband.

In the days that followed, she was unable to give birth to a son, and was tortured by her evil mother-in-law every day and bullied by her sisters-in-law. To top it all off, her two daughters were secretly sold.

If the two girls had not been sold secretly, and if Dajiang had not been born, there would be no difference. With her confused mind, my mother-in-law still could not escape being controlled by the mother-in-law.

Such a big change happened unexpectedly, which made my father-in-law completely disappointed. What a coincidence, after the separation, she no longer has to suffer from the bullying, and her little daughter can support the family.

What's more coincidental is that this third daughter is not very smart. Not only does she not hold a grudge against her mother for not going to the capital to see her, but when she came back, she even coaxed her father into saying how much he felt sorry for her mother—"

"Hahaha……"
