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

Chapter 140 There is no way to pass
"What are you talking about?"

Mr. Gu Liu was angry and his face was as cold as frost.

Although the old woman was afraid, she still suppressed her panic and said, "Sixth Madam was too busy to take care of it. She only found out this morning that Miss Zhen didn't come back..."

The boy lowered his head in fear.

The Sixth Madam's niece also went to Yuyuantan yesterday and did not return all night. It is easy to guess what she is planning.

Mr. Gu Liu stood up angrily, his jade-white face stained with a layer of red.

"What did you say? How dare she?"

The old woman's legs were shaking with fear, and she said, "I don't know anything."

"What's going on?"

Gu Jinghui walked out of the house. He had just finished what he was doing when he heard a commotion in the yard.

"Third brother, Third brother," Gu Liuye's anger suddenly turned into grievance, and he kept shouting, "How could she do such a thing? You have to make the decision for me. I can't live like this anymore."

Gu Jinghui glared at Master Gu Liu with a look of disappointment and asked, “What happened?”

"She...she..." Gu Liuye was furious. His brother Qin was being plotted against by Gu Liu's family, and the plot failed and something went wrong. "She has the nerve to do it, but I don't even have the face to say anything."

Gu Jinghui frowned and asked the old woman, "Where is the person?"

The old woman was frightened by his sharp eyes and trembled as she said, "Sixth Madam was busy taking care of the young lady. She only remembered to ask about Miss Zhen this morning. Then she found out that Miss Zhen had not come back. So she asked this old servant to quickly ask Sixth Master if he had seen Miss Zhen when he went to Yuyuantan yesterday."

Gu Jinghui glanced at the red-faced Gu Liuye, sighed slightly in his heart, and asked, "Did you see any trace of Xu Zhen yesterday?"

Gu Liuye shook his head and said, "If I had seen Xu Zhen, why wouldn't I bring her back? Oh my God, what's going on?"

Gu Jinghui remained silent.

Master Gu Liu was very upset and said, "The Xu family is a poor family. I'm afraid this matter can't be resolved peacefully."

Xu Zhen was invited by Madam Gu Liu as a guest. What ideas could a little girl have? Going to Yuyuantan was probably instructed by Madam Gu Liu. Even if it was not Madam Gu Liu's idea, it would be considered so in the eyes of the Xu family.

Gu Jinghui said angrily, “Your husband is weak, who can you blame? Look at your third sister-in-law, she would never do such a thing. She always listens to me and would never do anything wrong.”

Master Gu Liu: “…”

Why so sad?!
Gu Jinghui sighed again: “This matter…”

Master Gu Liu looked at Gu Jinghui expectantly, hoping that his third brother would help him make a decision.

Lord Gu paused and said, "Please ask Madam to come."

Master Gu Liu said, "Can Third Sister-in-law handle it? She has given all the household affairs in the mansion to her. Let Xu Shi find a way to reply to the Xu family herself."

The scoundrels in the Xu family are so difficult to deal with.

He didn't want Qin Yuan to get involved.

It is so embarrassing that Xu Zhen went to Yuyuantan. Just think about it and you will know that he went there for Qin Siyuan. Does he have to let Qin Yuan deal with the Xu family?

Mr. Gu Liu felt ashamed.

Lord Gu said coldly: "Sixth brother's wife is taking care of the children and can't even leave the yard. Your third sister-in-law is now in charge of the household affairs, so she has to take care of this matter. As for how the Xu family will deal with it, we will talk about it later."

Master Gu Liu couldn't help but complain, "Third brother, I'm not being rude to you as your younger brother. Who is that Miss Zhao? If I hadn't discovered it early, I'm afraid all my children would have suffered. What a vicious woman."

Now it was Lord Gu's turn to be speechless.

The maid had already hurriedly gone to report to Madam Gu Liu that Qin Yuan was now in charge of the household affairs of the entire mansion, and all the housekeepers had gathered in Wutong Garden to report matters. Qin Yuan still set up a table and chairs under the tree, drank tea leisurely, and listened to Hongye's call.

The mothers in charge did not dare to slack off at all and lined up in two rows obediently. Yesterday, as soon as Qin Yuan got the matching cards, she immediately gave instructions.

The distribution of medicine, incense, cleaning, isolation and protection arrangements are well organized.

They were all old veterans and immediately understood Qin Yuan's methods and power. Their originally frightened hearts all calmed down.

Right now is a time of turmoil, and everyone is behaving themselves, not daring to cause trouble, for fear of being framed like Mother Lu in the sewing room, who had provoked Qin Yuan.

A maid hurriedly came up to Cui Ming and whispered a few words. Cui Ming's face changed, and she hurried to Qin Yuan and whispered, "Madam, the Marquis asks you to go to the front yard to discuss. I'm afraid something has happened to Miss Zhen."

Qin Yuan frowned.

The mansion was in a state of chaos yesterday and Xu Zhen didn't bother her, so why did she tell her that something happened today?
Seeing this, Hongye immediately stopped and asked, "Which mother knows what's going on?"

Someone immediately came forward to report.

"Miss Zhen left home early yesterday. She was accompanied by a little girl who was brought from the Xu family. I thought she had returned to the Xu family early in the morning, but I didn't expect something to happen."

"The Sixth Madam remembered to send someone to inquire today, and only then did she find out that Miss Zhen had not returned since she went out."

Qin Yuan stood up and said, "Hongye, accompany me to the front yard first. If you have anything to say, tell Cuiming. If it's something important, you can wait for me to come back to discuss it. If it's routine matters, just do it according to what we agreed on yesterday."

"Yes, ma'am."

The mothers in charge lowered their heads in response.

Qin Yuan took Hongye to the front yard. As soon as they entered the yard, they saw the two brothers of Lord Gu standing in the pavilion.

Lord Gu was emitting cold air all over his body and had a dark face, as if he was very angry. Lord Gu Liu stood aside with his face flushed, waving the folding fan in his hand wildly. The servant beside him lowered his head, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Qin Yuan walked up to him, bowed, and said softly, "Did my husband and sixth brother sleep well last night? Did you have breakfast?"

Lord Gu put away his coldness, stepped forward to help her up and said, "It's okay, where's the madam?"

Qin Yuan smiled and nodded, "I'm fine too."

Master Gu Liu, who was standing by, looked on with envy.

The third brother and his wife are really getting more and more affectionate, and every move they make is full of affection. Only he...

Lord Gu took Qin Yuan to sit down at the stone table, and then said to Lord Gu Liu who was standing stupidly beside him: "Why don't you sit down quickly? Do you want me to treat you?"

Master Gu Liu: “…”

After Gu Liuye also sat down, Gu Houye said, "Madam, Xu Zhen went to Yuyuantan yesterday, and my brother didn't see her. She hasn't come back yet. What should I do?"

Mr. Gu Liu's face turned even redder, and he didn't dare to look up at Qin Yuan at all.

"Yuyuantan?"

Qin Yuan was startled, and then looking at Sixth Master's expression, he guessed that Xu Zhen was probably going after Qin Siyuan. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Sixth Brother, didn't you see Miss Zhen yesterday?"

Gu Liuye immediately said, "No, I was with Siyuan yesterday. I went to Qin's house to pick him up early in the morning, and I also sent him to Qin's house on the way back."

This was equivalent to guaranteeing Qin Yuan that Qin Siyuan had never had the opportunity to meet Xu Zhen.

Qin Yuan frowned.

The messenger came back and said to Master Gu Liu in a hurry, "Master Liu, Madam Liu is begging you to send someone to Yuyuantan to look for Miss Zhen. Miss Zhen is young and naughty. She knew you were going to Yuyuantan to play and form a club, so she left early yesterday morning. I don't know why she didn't run into Master Liu's car."
