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

Chapter 252: It's Busy

Cui Ming sneered: "Listen to what you say and see if you believe it or not."

Qin Yuan said, "In that case, you should give all the lists to Gu Shiliu. Besides, I suddenly thought of something and want him to verify it."

Hongye asked hurriedly: "What's the matter?"

Qin Yuan frowned slightly and said slowly: "I have some doubts that the one who died might not be the nanny beside Zhao."

Hongye and Cuiming were both surprised.

"Who was the one who died?"

Qin Yuan sighed: "Could it be the real Mrs. Yang?"

Hongye didn't say anything for a long time.

Cui Ming lowered her head and thought hard.

"You also find it incredible, don't you?"

Hongye nodded heavily.

Qin Yuan continued, "I heard from Xiaohong that Cheng Ge'er was close to her, which was a bit strange. Every time I went to the upper room, I carefully observed the two children. Cheng Ge'er stayed in the upper room for so long, so he was close to Xiaohong and Rong Mama. It can be seen that he is not someone who gets close to others easily."

Hongye nodded.

"After Zi He recovered, Cheng Ge'er didn't get very close to her. I guess they weren't close when they were in Fengxuan Pavilion. But why did Cheng Ge'er suddenly become close to a woman who was guarding the gate at night?"

Cui Ming said: "Miss, you mean, they might have been very close before."

"Correct."

In the previous life, Qin Yuan accompanied Lin Ziqi to climb from the position of county magistrate to the position of prime minister. It took many years and he had seen countless strange and major cases. After listening to Xiao Hong's words, he couldn't help but think more.

Cui Ming continued, "Mrs. Yang is always on night duty, and she is a lonely person with a shabby personality. She doesn't interact much with people around her. In addition, she is always unkempt and dressed haphazardly. Even if someone else were to replace her, it wouldn't attract much attention."

Qin Yuan praised, "You are right. I once heard of a case where a man was thin and handsome. He had been dressed like a girl since he was young. He was also very good at needlework and dressing up. He pretended to be a girl and walked around in the boudoirs. He harmed many women. Later, he was caught and the incident happened."

Hongye thought about it and said, "That's not impossible."

Qin Yuan said: "To be able to achieve this, Zhao's ambitions are not small."

Hongye broke out in a cold sweat and said, "I'll go find Sixteen right away."

She hurried to the outer study room, but was stopped by the doorman, who said coldly, "This is a restricted area of ​​the study room. How can you come here?"

Hongye said, "I have been here several times with my wife, don't you know? Now I have something important to do to find Gu Shiliu, can you help me pass on a message and ask him to come out to see me?"

The servant said, "Gu Shiliu is having important matters with the Marquis, please don't make any noise here."

Hongye: "..."

Fortunately, Gu Shiliu pushed the door open and asked, "What's wrong?"

The servant hurriedly said, "Sixteenth brother, Miss Hongye beside the Madam said she has something urgent to discuss with you."

Gu Shiliu took Hongye to the corridor and asked, "What's the matter?"

Hongye threw the paper roll into his arms and said, "This is the list that Madam has compiled for us. You can take it to show the Marquis."

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Gu Shiliu smiled and said, "Are you angry?"

"No."

Hongye turned around.

Gu Shiliu said, "This is the outer study room. There are many confidential documents here. Generally, no one is allowed to approach. Even if Sixth Master wants to see the Marquis, he still has to wait for the order to be passed."

"Everything else is fine, but that gatekeeper boy has a bad face and a bad tone." Hongye couldn't help but complain.

Gu Shiliu coaxed, "Okay, I'll talk to him later. In the future, when talking to our Miss Hongye, you can't show your displeasure."

Hongye smiled and said, "Am I that kind of petty person?"

Gu Shiliu: “…”

Lord Gu suddenly coughed a few times.

Gu Shiliu was about to leave, but Hongye said, "Wait a minute, Madam has something for me to tell you."

"You said."

Gu Shiliu did not dare to neglect.

Hongye then whispered in her ear.

Gu Shiliu stood there for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, "So that's how it is. Madam is truly talented."

After saying that, he hurried back to the study.

"Look how anxious this person is," Hongye hummed a tune as she hurried back to Wutong Garden, where a pile of account books were waiting for her.

About half an hour later, Lord Gu also returned to Wutong Garden.

Qin Yuan was searching through boxes and cabinets with others, and Lord Gu asked as soon as he came in, "What are you doing?"

"Didn't we agree to visit Brother Qi and his mother? There are some dark-colored fabrics in the dowry, which I don't need at my age. If I keep them, they will grow worms. It's better to give them to Brother Qi and his mother. There are also some medicinal incense that I used to make to soothe the liver and improve eyesight. I don't know where I put them."

Lord Gu was moved and said, "Thanks to you for helping me with all this. They beat up Brother Qi, and many people didn't say anything, but they felt a little unfair in their hearts. Later, when they saw that Brother Qi and his mother were well taken care of, they felt better. Sixteen said that he heard many people praising us behind our backs."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "If I knew that the Marquis was willing to spend a fortune to treat Brother Qi's mother's eyes, I wouldn't know how to praise her."

"That's what she deserves," Lord Gu said, "No wonder the elders always say that we should accumulate virtue and do good deeds. It's not easy for us to be considerate of Brother Qi and his wife. It's just a matter of convenience. There's no cost. They have done a great deed."

After a pause, he said, "All the male members of his family went to the battlefield, leaving only Brother Qi."

The tone was quite pitiful.

Qin Yuan could tell that he was thinking of her, so she pretended not to know: "My Lord, why don't you quickly copy the secret memorial and send it to the palace? I have been writing it all night long."

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll go right away."

Without caring about being sad, Gu Jinghui quickly went to sit down at the desk and copied it carefully.

By the time he had finished copying the memorial and had someone seal it and send it to the Weiyang Palace, it was already lunchtime.

Qin Yuan watched the maids set the table and was about to invite him to eat together when Gu Shiliu came in a hurry. The two of them whispered a few words and left Wutong Garden together. Before leaving, Qin Yuan only had time to eat alone, and he also said that Brother Qi was waiting for him to go together.

Hongye asked curiously: "What happened?"

Qin Yuan didn't care: "Sixteen must have received some important news. Since he's not here, we can use it together."

The three of them sat together to eat, and two additional portions were set aside and sent to the outer study by Hongmian.

Hong Mian came back and said, "She was stopped outside by the servant who was watching the outer study. The lunch box has already been put down."

When Qin Yuan woke up from her lunch break, the old lady sent someone to tell her to go to her room for dinner.

The person who passed the message was Qiu Ju. Hong Ye asked, "What's the reason?"

Qiu Ju smiled and said, "After reading Sixth Master's new collection of poems, the old lady said it was great. She insisted on having a family dinner and invited the Marquis and his wife to come and have the dinner together. The old lady paid for it."

Qin Yuan joked, "Why not wait until after we open the mansion to set it up, so that we can eat more of the old lady's pocket money. Sixth Master has done such a big thing, and the old lady can only solve the problem with a small kitchen? I don't agree."

Qiu Ju laughed and said, "Madam, don't worry. I heard from the old lady that there will be a big banquet in the future. The Sixth Master said that it will be his turn to start a poetry club. The old lady said it would be better to hold a banquet in the garden of the Marquis' Mansion. Madam, you will be busy now."
