Chapter 426 You Da Wants a Thank You Gift

Gu Jinghui said inexplicably: “Are you stupid? This must be the female relatives of the Duke of Zhenguo’s Mansion. What does it have to do with me?”

Hearing this, Qin Yuan asked Gu Baozhu in the car: "But the young lady from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion wants to see you for something?"

Gu Baozhu poked her head out and shouted, "You Da, are you in there?"

The curtain of the carriage of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was lifted up, and a young woman with a head full of pearls and jade appeared. She had a kind face and looked very amiable.

The woman asked, "Gu Laoqi, there are so many people here, what nickname are you calling out?"

Gu Baozhu lowered her voice and retorted, "It was you, Miss You, who blocked my carriage for no reason. I'm in a hurry to get home to get beaten. Don't mess with me now. Get out of the way quickly. I can save myself a few more strokes."

Qin Yuan laughed in horror after hearing this.

It turns out that this sister-in-law is so unruly outside that she doesn't even bother to admit that she will be punished by the family.

Then I thought that Lord Gu was beaten by his mother even at such an old age, and I was afraid that this was the family tradition of the military officer's family.

As expected, Miss You was not surprised at all and said, "Old Madam Gu is the softest-hearted one. She won't let you kneel in the ancestral hall after being beaten. Why are you pretending to be pitiful? My father will let me kneel in the ancestral hall again."

Gu Baozhu said, "Stop, stop, stop. It's fine for the two of us to talk here for as long as we want, but my brothers and sisters-in-law are all here. If you have something to say, just say it quickly. If not, please let me go."

Miss You said leisurely, "If I hadn't gone to the palace to report the news and persuaded the Ninth Princess, do you think you would have been able to leave today? Not to mention that you also received a reward. Is this how you treat your benefactor?"

"So it's you," Lord Gu said, "I was just wondering how the emperor got the news."

Miss You lowered the carriage curtain and walked out. Without getting off the carriage, she stood at the shaft and bowed, saying, "Greetings to Lord Gu, Lord Gu Liu, and Lady Gu."

Lord Gu and others immediately returned the greeting.

Although Gu Baozhu did not come out, she leaned out half of her body to block Qin Yuan completely.

Miss You said, "I saw that Baozhu was eager to fight the Yelu people. She should have gone on the battlefield, but she was too lazy to change her clothes, so she went to the Ninth Princess' place. Miss Chang happened to be there too..."

After saying this, he glanced at the faces of Lord Gu and Gu Baozhu, and then said, "When the Ninth Princess learned about this, she went to the palace. It happened that Steward Wang also helped, so the Emperor came to see the fun. It's also because you guys play ball well."

Lord Gu said, "Speaking of which, I have to thank Miss You."

Miss You's face turned red.

Gu Baozhu pouted and said, "We were all exhausted from the fight, and Song Xiaoniu even got a scratch on her face, but you didn't even bother to change your clothes. Since you went to get help, I won't blame you. We are all good sisters, so next time if you need me, just let me know."

Miss You immediately responded: "No need for next time, just give it to me this time."

Gu Baozhu asked curiously, "What do you like?"

Qin Yuan also perked up and wanted to know what Miss You wanted.

Miss You said, "We have won, so why not let me have the chance to deal with the Yelu clan members?"

Gu Baozhu was about to agree when she felt Qin Yuan tugging at the hem of her clothes, so she quickly changed her mind.

"That won't do. This matter has been reviewed by the Emperor. You may not know if you haven't been there, but we were about to lose on the field. It was only because my third brother brought the generals with him that we won. I can't make the decision on this matter alone." These words surprised Qin Yuan.

Gu Baozhu kept asking Miss You: "What are you going to do?"

Miss You said angrily, "Actually, I don't just want it for myself. You'll know in a couple of days. So, I won't delay you from going back, lest you blame me after getting beaten."

As he said this, he bowed on the shaft of the carriage and said goodbye.

The carriages of the two families separated, and Gu Jinghui and the others finally set foot on the road.

Gu Baozhu withdrew her body and complained to Qin Yuan: "Yu Da is the worst. She doesn't play with us, and she doesn't bother to talk to me when things are not delivered. But I just can't get angry with her. Isn't that strange?"

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Because even though she doesn't agree with your approach, she still found a way to get you help."

Gu Baozhu then stopped nagging.

Then he asked, "Why didn't you let me agree just now?"

Qin Yuan said: "Didn't you say a long paragraph by yourself?"

Gu Baozhu rolled her eyes and said, "That was just my excuse. You Da also knows it. Don't you not know it? It seems that Third Sister-in-law doesn't treat me as an adult."

Before Qin Yuan could say anything, Gu Jinghui outside said, "Are you an adult? Which adult would cause so much trouble? Now that you are outside, I can't say anything to you. I will deal with you properly when we return to the mansion."

Gu Baozhu immediately rolled into Qin Yuan's arms and begged, "My dear Third Sister-in-law, we are the best in the world, you can't just stand by and watch me die."

Qin Yuan quickly pushed her away and said, "You are sweating all over. Why is your head still wet?"

Then he said to Gu Jinghui, “Go back quickly. If Baozhu keeps dragging on like this, she might get sick.”

Gu Jinghui said: “Got it.”

Gu Baozhu frowned, looking like she was about to cry, and said, "My third sister-in-law despises me. When I get back, my mother will beat me up, and I will be even more pitiful."

Qin Yuan said angrily and amusedly, "Go back and take a bath, drink some ginger soup, and then go to mother to accept the punishment. My father told me to speak well of you in front of mother, but you can't always make a scene like this. Your sixth sister-in-law hasn't been buried yet, do you think it's appropriate for you to make such a big scene outside?"

Gu Baozhu said angrily, "I know it's wrong, but I was so angry when I heard the Yelu people barking. I wasn't the only one who was angry at the time. Everyone was very unhappy, so I wanted to fight them to the death."

Qin Yuan sighed.

"But everyone thinks that you started it, and you are the leader. You know, people's words are scary. The emperor stepped in and your brother got involved, so your story was covered up. But if someone wants to make things difficult for the Marquis' Mansion and you, it will always be bad for your reputation if it is exposed."

"Is this the only reason why Third Sister-in-law won't let me agree to Youda's request?"

Qin Yuan said, "That's partly why. You two don't understand. You can do a lot with this life and death agreement. With the emperor's endorsement, this matter is so big that none of you can influence it. Didn't she say that she didn't want it for herself? Then you can see who is asking for it and who wants it."

Gu Baozhu thought about it for a moment and said, "I understand."

Then he asked, "Why are you here? I forgot to ask this. If it weren't for Third Brother, I'm afraid my life would be in danger."

Qin Yuan smiled and said, "Then I have to talk about the good things you did in the past. If it weren't for your kindness, your third brother wouldn't have gotten the news so quickly and come to save you."
