Houmen Dixiu

Chapter 76
Old Mrs. Du nodded slightly, then turned his eyes to Xiao Huaisu, "Huaisu stay and talk to me!"

"Yes, grandfather."

Xiao Huaisu blinked at Mrs. Du, then sent Sister Du Yanyun to the door of the outer study, and then turned back.

Old Mrs. Du waved to her, and when Xiao Huaisu got close, he took her into his arms, his whole body trembling slightly, "Fortunately, fortunately, you are all right!"

"Grandfather..."

Xiao Huaisu was slightly taken aback, not because of the intimacy shown by Mrs. Du, but because of his slightly trembling body, revealing his fear and worry.

Xiao Huaisu's heart warmed up, and the corners of his eyes felt slightly wet, and he gently leaned his head on Old Master Du's shoulder, "Huai Sufu has a big life, and nothing will happen."

Old Mrs. Du sighed, supported Xiao Huaisu, looked left and right on her fair and small face, and then smiled helplessly, "If it weren't for the help of Mr. Guang Enbo, you still dare to say such big words today!"

Xiao Huaisu stuck out his tongue with a smile, and there was a hint of slyness in his eyes, "Grandfather is wrong. If Huai Su had no skills, how could he make a friend like Uncle Guangen, so everything has its own destiny."

"You're right, it's kind of Zen."

Old Mrs. Du's eyes darkened, and he pondered a little: "Although the Ye family is not prominent, it is the queen's natal family after all. The crown prince is mediocre, and the seventh prince is strong. The future situation is hard to say..." The words paused slightly, with a bit of earnestness Gently told Xiao Huaisu, "Your relationship with the Ye family should be the same as our relationship with the Gu family. It should not be close or far away. Don't talk too much. It will cause unnecessary trouble in the future."

"Yes, grandfather."

Xiao Huaisu responded softly, and immediately lowered her eyes. She naturally knew what Old Master Du was thinking. The most important thing for an official is to be a pure minister and be impartial. No matter how the situation changes in the future, as long as she maintains this neutrality, Even if you can't be noble for a lifetime, you can keep your family safe.

But these are just Mrs. Du's thoughts.

Those beautiful peach blossom eyes flashed in my mind, and the corners of Xiao Huaisu's lips curled up into a smile. Although the actual mental ages of the two were far apart, as friends, she was really willing to make friends with Ye Guanlan, and he was also sincere. for her good.

If Mrs. Du forbids them to get along too much, then they should meet less, or use letters to communicate, she doesn't want to lose the first friend she made here.

Old Mrs. Du glanced at the crow-blue black hair on Xiao Huaisu's head, and sighed secretly in his heart. He knew this little granddaughter's stubbornness. This can be seen from her ability to practice calligraphy and painting assiduously. A person's temper It was doomed since childhood, and he just hoped that Xiao Huaisu could listen to this and make the most correct decision in his heart when it came time to weigh the gains and losses.

"You did a good job today!"

Mrs. Du changed the subject, and looked at Xiao Huaisu approvingly, "You didn't see what you said, the corners of An Luhou's mouth twitched in distress, and he couldn't even speak smoothly." At the end, he laughed stand up.

Mrs. Du has never seen An Luhou look so shriveled. Although the current power of the Du family overwhelms him, he still has the arrogance of nobles. After all, the power of the Du family will fall with his retirement. However, Marquis Anlu's title is hereditary, and Marquis Anlu has more confidence than anyone else in this alone.

Although An Luhou said that he came to apologize today, he still had a bit of reservation in front of him, but when he talked about specific things, he immediately lost his composure.

Thinking of this, Old Master Du felt relieved, and gave his little granddaughter a thumbs up.

A single oriental bead is already worth a thousand gold, and a box of oriental beads can be regarded as a cut of An Luhou's flesh, and he will die of heartache when he turns back.

"That's what they were supposed to do."

Xiao Huaisu pursed his lips, taking it for granted, "Grandfather didn't know what he looked like back then, we almost couldn't come back..."

"Silly boy, my grandfather will never let you encounter such a dangerous situation again."

Old Mrs. Du shook his head emotionally, stroking his long beard with one hand, his eyes revealed deep thought, "I heard that it was Qing Yang who saved Sister Yun?"

"Well, it's also fortunate that Second Brother Gu arrived in time, otherwise Second Cousin might be in danger."

At least for this point, Xiao Huaisu is very grateful to Gu Qingyang, even though he and Shi Ruiqi are related, the two are obviously different in nature and cannot be confused.

Old Mrs. Du nodded, but his complexion gradually became solemn, "It is also thanks to An Luhou that he took the initiative to come to the door to plead guilty today. This son should not be underestimated!"

Being able to bend and stretch, taking advantage of the situation, this level can be achieved at such an age, and with time, Gu Qingyang's future must be limitless.

"Oh?"

Xiao Huaisu was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Gu Qingyang would still play a role in it, but thinking about it, he had to protect Shi Ruiqi under the circumstances yesterday, but it was obviously not what he wanted to see to fight against the Du family. Among them, I tried my best to mediate.

So far, it seems that this effect is not bad.

"Okay, let's stop here!"

Old Mrs. Du stood up slowly, the original leisurely aura gradually disappeared, and a sharp edge appeared in his eyes, "I heard that the son of Guang Enbo is not a treasure in the pool, otherwise he would not be favored by the empress. Although he has not lived in Bianjing City these years, his status has not been shaken at all."

"Grandfather?"

Xiao Huaisu looked at Mrs. Du hesitantly, not knowing what he meant by saying that.

Old Mrs. Du smiled, with a hint of interest on the corners of his lips, "Nowadays, Bianjing is full of talented people. Gu Qingyang, Ye Guanlan, even I am looking forward to the day when they will fight..."

Xiao Huaisu covered her lips in surprise, she naturally heard the meaning behind what Old Master Du said.

Ye Guanlan and Gu Qingyang, one side represents the empress and the prince, and the other represents the concubine Shu and the seventh prince. Even if it is calm now, such a battle between dragons and tigers in the future is inevitable.

Compared to Mrs. Du's leisurely attitude of sitting on a mountain and watching the tigers fight, Xiao Huaisu felt nervous for no reason. If that day really comes, which side will she hope to lose and which side will win?
This incident happened suddenly, and it passed quickly, so those who wanted to catch the wind and take the opportunity to make trouble could not find any opportunity to take advantage of it.

Mrs. Du is indeed high and powerful, but he did not abuse his power to suppress Anluhou's mansion, and Anluhou, as a veteran honorable man, can also take the initiative to apologize and shake hands to make peace. Said.

The next day, Marquis Anlu ordered the steward to prepare generous gifts and send them to Du's mansion. Apart from the box of East Pearls, there was a lot of ginseng and antler, and there were several boxes of Kesi, Shu brocade, silk and satin, and precious furs. The family went to check, these things took up a small warehouse, it can be seen that An Luhou has indeed spent a lot of money.
