Chapter 155 Wedding Dress
Mrs. Zhen Guohou pushed Zhen Guohou beside her, and said helplessly: "Why do you think Lin'er found you and me just now?"

Zhen Guohou sighed, how could Xiao Xilin not discover his wife's three-legged kung fu?

"He didn't make a sound, even if he saw it, he would turn a blind eye."

Mrs. Zhen Guohou gave him a sideways glance: "What are you turning a blind eye to? Does this mean that you don't take my aunt seriously?"

"What nonsense, don't let the third girl hear you." Zhen Guohou followed his wife to call Gu Yun Xiao three girl affectionately, but he felt a lot closer, so he kept calling it that way.

"That's right. It's the first time I saw Lin'er being so considerate to the third girl. Last time I asked Lin'er to play the flute, but he didn't agree, let alone anyone else." The Marquis's wife was indignant, and said that the married daughter was the water that was thrown out, and that her nephew's arm had been completely abducted before he brought his daughter-in-law home.

"Don't you just hope that Lin'er and his daughter-in-law will be reconciled and beautiful in the future? The young couple have a good relationship, so you should be relieved." Zhen Guohou was originally worried that Xiao Xilin's appearance was too good, and the young woman beside him was not rushing. Looking at his face, it was aimed at the identity of the Taifu, which annoyed this nephew so much that he didn't have a good look at the girl's family.

It might be difficult to get along with Gu Yunxiao.

Seeing that Xiao Xilin and Gu Yunxiao are getting along well now, Zhen Guohou finally let go of his heart.

Gu Yunxiao woke up and found herself lying on the couch in the house, her cheeks flushed slightly.

She was supposed to be listening to Xiao Xilin's flute, but she fell asleep.

For Xiao Xilin, this was really not a pleasant thing.

In a blink of an eye, Gu Yunxiao comforted herself again, it was because of the peace and security she felt beside Xiao Xilin that she fell asleep unknowingly and unsuspectingly.

Hearing that Ji Qingrou woke up and no longer had to worry about her life, she was really relieved.

Although Gu Yunxiao used bitter tricks against Mrs. Zhen Guohou against Ji Qingrou, but in the end he almost lost his own life, and he was unhappy.

But I also understand that even if Xiao Xilin presents evidence to refute An Guohou, he has the upper hand.If it is said that a human life is caused, no matter how reasonable it is, it will always leave a stain on the Zhen Guo Hou Mansion.

Fortunately, Ji Qingrou was lucky enough to survive.After receiving this profound lesson, I'm afraid this girl will know that she is afraid, so she won't do this kind of thing again.

Moreover, the Marquis of An Guo took the lead in lowering his airs and sent people to present gifts to make amends. Naturally, Madam Zhen Guohou would not be relentless, so the matter was left alone.

Of course, punishing Ji Qingrou by grounding her feet, and plagiarizing scriptures and female training thousands of times doesn't count.

Anyway, it's just copying books, it's just for cultivating temperament.

The most wonderful thing is that Mrs. Zhen Guohou went to the palace to meet the palace and told the whole story to the empress.

When Gu Yunxiao woke up, Mrs. Zhen Guohou had already returned from the palace. She immediately ran to Xiangzhu Garden to tell her, and said triumphantly, "I told the empress about punishing that girl of the Ji family. It’s hard to be soft-hearted and act like there’s no such thing.”

She wanted to teach Ji Qingrou a lesson, so naturally she wouldn't let An Guohou's mansion just pass by in such a vague way.

Gu Yunxiao was amused to hear that Madam Zhen Guohou's move was open and aboveboard enough.She went directly to the palace and told the queen, which was equivalent to telling all the dignitaries in the capital. Can the Marquis of Anguo deny it?
I'm afraid there is no need for Mrs. Zhen Guohou to remind me personally, there are enough eyes on An Guohou's mansion to watch the excitement.

Gu Yunxiao pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister Rou is indeed a little reckless, and she still wants to slander Madam, so she should be taught a lesson."

Mrs. Zhen Guohou nodded in satisfaction, and finally let out a sigh of relief, not to mention how happy she was: "By the way, it's too late to re-sew the wedding dress. I'm thinking about taking out the wedding dress I made by myself and modifying it a little bit. What do the three girls think?"

"How did this happen? It was originally supposed to be carefully collected by the madam, but now it is taken out and changed. Isn't it a waste?" Gu Yun waved his hands again and again, but he did not expect that Mrs. Zhen Guohou was so generous. Take out her wedding dress and give it to her.

Mrs. Zhen Guohou shook her head indifferently and said: "It's not such a valuable thing, and I'll call you a girl, and you are going to be Lin's daughter-in-law. Is it possible that I can let you wear it as an embroidered mother and rush to work day and night to get it out?" Wouldn't it be embarrassing for Lin'er to wear those poorly made wedding dresses?"

How many pairs of eyes stared at Xiao Xilin, and she always loved this nephew whose parents both died, so she had to help her no matter what.

In addition, Mrs. Zhen Guohou likes Gu Yunxiao, the niece and daughter-in-law very much, but she just took out the wedding dress and modified it a little. Don't shirk, I've mentioned this to Lin'er too, time is running out, you have to come up with a complete wedding dress, even if you don't eat or drink, it's impossible to do it for a whole month, let alone even a wedding dress now Don’t have a month’s time?”

"It's just a wedding dress. Anyway, I put it in the bottom of the box. I'm afraid that if the style is a little old, you won't like it."

"Where is Madam, it's too late for the girl to be grateful to Madam." Gu Yunxiao's eyes were slightly red, she was not taken seriously in the Gu residence, and she never even had the opportunity to start sewing a wedding dress.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zhen Guohou took this matter to heart, and she was willing to give her her wedding dress to herself, which is really a great favor.

After all, she is about to become Mrs. Taifu, and without a decent wedding dress, not only Gu Yunxiao will lose face, but Xiao Xilin will also lose face.

"Look, why are you going to cry, girl? If Lin'er came over and saw it, she would think I was bullying you." Mrs. Zhen Guohou joked, and took a handkerchief to touch the corner of her eyes: "You wait and see Is there anything you want to change about this wedding dress? The girl may marry like this once in her life, so the wedding dress can't be done carelessly. Anyway, the embroiderers are all ready-made, and they are all raised in the house. They are trustworthy. How do you want to change it? , girl just say it straight."

Gu Yunxiao lowered his head, red-eyed and said: "It is already very good to be able to wear Madam's wedding dress, as for changing, there is no need."

Mrs. Zhen Guohou persisted and dragged her to her yard to have a look at the wedding dress.

The wedding gown was taken out of the box and hung in front of the screen. The bright red color was like a new one without fading at all, which showed how much Mrs. Zhen Guohou cherished this wedding gown.

The layers of embroidery on the placket are made of gold thread, while the skirt and sleeve edges are made of silver thread.Gold and silver overlapped, it can be seen that Mrs. Zhen Guohou put so much care into this wedding dress, I am afraid it took countless nights to complete it.

Gu Yunxiao was surprised when he saw it, and exclaimed: "Madam's embroidery is very good, I don't know how much effort was spent on it, and it was done without any changes at all."

Mrs. Zhen Guohou was still dissatisfied: "This style was made more than ten years ago, after all, it is a bit old. No matter how you maintain the gold thread, it is old and looks a bit dim. You can tell how many years it has been pressed at a glance. How can you take out the goods to meet people?"

She looked around and said decisively: "Replace all the gold threads with new ones, and use the most popular designs at the moment. It must be completed within half a month. If this is done, the monthly silver of the embroiderer will be doubled. There are also rewards."

There must be a brave man under a heavy reward, and Xiu Niang is no exception.

The monthly silver in Zhen Guohou's mansion is already quite rich, now it has doubled, and there is another reward, Xiu Niang immediately smiled.

They gritted their teeth, even if they could not eat or drink for a few days and nights, they still had to change their wedding dress again!

Gu Yunxiao was surprised that such a large process only took half a month, so it was a bit embarrassing.

Fortunately, there are a large number of embroiderers, and their craftsmanship is superb. With the lamplight and hard work, and with a lot of money behind them, it may be possible to finish it.

Mrs. Zhen Guohou gave her a sweet tip, so she also beat her up: "If you let me see someone who is lazy and slippery, and who is so-so and didn't do the embroidery well, don't blame me for being rude. It is kindness to beat the board and drive him out of the house. If you sell it directly, don't blame others."

The embroiderer's face was pale, and Qi Qi responded, quickly took off the wedding dress, and carefully began to carefully pick out the gold thread.

Mrs. Zhen Guohou was in a hurry to do things, and she dragged Gu Yunxiao to the backyard: "I moved all the dowry you sent back to the mansion. In the remaining half a month, it is really not easy to buy dozens of boxes of dowry. Madam Gu It is advisable to do so, and I temporarily took out half of the dowry from the storeroom, counting it as adding makeup to the girl."

"This..." Gu Yunxiao was about to refuse, but was interrupted by her.

"Not only for the sake of the girl, but also for Lin'er's identity and face, the dowry must not be sloppy." Mrs. Zhen Guohou blinked and smiled again: "My dowry back then was more than 100 liters. It’s okay to take out only half of one copy. In addition, my only daughter is married far away. There were ten boxes of porcelain in the original dowry that I couldn’t carry on the road, so I temporarily replaced it with other gold wares. Now it’s just , I kept it in the warehouse and kept covered in dust, so I might as well give it to you. To me, a girl is like half my daughter, how can I refuse the kindness of being a mother?"

Gu Yunxiao's eye circles were red again, Madam Zhen Guohou's kindness made her feel warm in her heart, and she almost shed tears.

Mrs. Zhen Guohou said helplessly: "Why don't I know that the girl Lin'er is going to marry is actually a crying girl, she is about to cry every now and then? Well, don't make your face look ugly by crying."

Gu Yunxiao was amused by her, rubbed her eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Thank you Madam, from now on, the girl must be as filial as my wife and mother."

Mrs. Zhen Guohou got this sentence, she hugged her shoulders in relief and said: "I just have one more daughter who is filial under my knees, so I won't be depressed in the future. You don't know that Lord Hou doesn't like to go to the temple, other wives When they meet, they are mostly fawning and flattering, or they bring their daughter and want to let Rin'er meet, which is really annoying. How is it now, and I will go out in the future, accompanied by a girl, so I won't be able to greet those wives, so I can feel at ease."
