Gu Jingyun stretched out his hand and scratched her nose, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, mother won't hang Master for long."

Qin Wenyin's attitude is softening, and Bai Yitang is not a fool, if she takes one step back, he can take two steps forward.

But Gu Jingyun was a little worried, "Our family ran out of money again."

The assets of their family have actually increased a lot, but it is a pity that cash is not included.

Gu Jingyun pondered and said: "Qiongzhou is a good place. Although the transportation is inconvenient, if there is a boat, you can still earn a lot of money by transporting the things inside."

"Sackcloth?"

"There is also tea. I have asked Zhang Yiyan to start researching on planting tea. If it is possible, he should be able to earn some money." Gu Jingyun regretted, "It's a pity that the shelf life of the fruit is too short, otherwise the variety of fruits on the island would not make much money. Less money."

"That's why we say that if you want to get rich, build roads first!"

The materials and manpower required to build the road are too great, which is not what Gu Jingyun can achieve, and even today he cannot make this decision.

"The return of these funds is very slow. We have to do some businesses that make money quickly."

"Robbery?" Li Baolu tilted her head, "Stealing?"

Gu Jingyun laughed softly, "As expected of being from the Lingtian Sect."

Li Baolu coughed lightly and turned her head away, but the tips of her ears were slightly red.

Gu Jingyun pondered for a moment and said: "No matter how fast they are, they will not be able to accomplish things this year, so as long as the family earns enough money a year ago, it is spring, and we manage carefully, and the shops and farms should be able to earn some income. There should be a few thousand taels in the cloth business."

"What about shipping business?"

Gu Jingyun shook his head slightly, "The money on it is not necessarily certain. When you earn more, it will be worse when you lose, and the time is too long. It may not be possible to recover the money this year, so it can be ignored, so what we have to do is how to use these stable resources that we already have Go to open source and earn more, no matter how you say, the cash at home also costs 10,000 taels.”

Otherwise, it would be really difficult for him to let his mother marry Master into the door.

Li Baolu waved her hands carelessly and said, "Don't worry, we don't have any money, but my master does!"

Gu Jingyun glanced at her without saying a word, got up and patted his sleeves and said, "Let's go, mother must have changed, let's serve tea."

Qin Wenyin had already changed out of her dress, and sat at the head of the front hall in a homely dress.

Bai Yitang was sitting next to her drinking tea, no matter how Qin Wenyin glanced at him, he would not get up, today he just wanted to drink the tea served by the two children with Qin Wenyin.

Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu didn't seem to notice this, they brought tea and knelt in front of them, Li Baolu first served the tea to Qin Wenyin, and then brought a cup to Bai Yitang.

Gu Jingyun was just the opposite. He served tea to Bai Yitang first, and then to Qin Wenyin.

Qin Wenyin couldn't help but blushed, quickly stuffed the red envelopes to the two children and got up, "I know you are busy, so mother won't bother you."

Bai Yitang immediately got up and said: "Yes, you go and do your work, and leave the housework to me and your mother."

Qin Wenyin's face turned even redder, and she glared at the thick-skinned Bai Yitang. She was about to turn around and leave when she thought of the Gu family. She couldn't help but pause and said, "Qinghe, you should go to Zhongyonghou's residence too."

Gu Jingyun helped Baolu up, frowning slightly.

"Although the clan has been separated, they are still your grandparents in terms of blood relationship. You don't have to come when you get married, but you have to bring Chunxi to visit, even if it's just a ceremony."

Gu Jingyun was a little annoyed and said, "Isn't it good that the well water doesn't interfere with the river water?"

"It's not good for you." Qin Wenyin looked at him sternly and said, "At least you can't be wrong with your etiquette. It's okay to say that Gu Huaijin is not in the capital, but the Zhongyonghou Mansion is there. You have to go if you don't. "

Seeing that her son was frowning, she sighed in a soft tone: "Son, our family is like a fire cooking oil, and you are being roasted on the fire. I don't know how many people in the capital are staring at you. If you are unknown , these things can be saved, but they can’t be saved now.”

"I know you don't want to see them, but no matter how uncomfortable you are, it's only for a moment. It's good to see them come back, but if you don't go today, I don't know how many people will mention them in front of you and attack you with this matter. You are always involved with them all the time, don't you feel more intimidated?"

Li Baolu reached out and tugged at Gu Jingyun's sleeve.

When Qin Wenyin saw her, she smiled and said: "Go to see Gu Xiuneng, if you get angry, just turn your head and look at your wife, and just wash your eyes."

Li Baolu's hands froze, and her eyes widened slightly.

Gu Jingyun turned his head to look at his wife, and then nodded reluctantly.

"Go quickly, wait for you to come back to have dinner at night, and tomorrow I have to go to the Qin Mansion to meet your uncle and aunt, and I will prepare a gift for you."

In Zhongyonghou's mansion, Lord Gu Hou was sitting in the study and practicing calligraphy. The big butler came in quietly, bowed and said: "Master Hou, the old lady wants the eldest lady and the second lady to accompany them to the Huguo Temple to offer incense."

Gu Houye frowned, sighed for a while, put down the pen and said: "Forget it, she can go if she wants, let the second daughter-in-law accompany her, and the eldest daughter-in-law stay."

The butler hesitated for a moment and said, "The old lady's body..."

Master Gu shook his head slightly, "She just went out for a walk, she won't get out of the car, just ask the driver to slow down."

The butler lowered his eyes and said, "He may not come..."

"He will definitely come," Gu Houye looked down at the words he had just written, and said softly, "He has always been smart, and he would not leave such an excuse, let alone the Qin family, who can bear it." Smart people. We still have a lot to learn."

Master Gu crumpled up the word "forbearance" he had just written, threw it into the trash, and said softly, "She endured it for the past fifteen years, but now we endure it. I just hope that this date will not be too late." long."

The butler lowered his eyes and said nothing.

Soon, the maids in the backyard carried Mrs. Gu out with their seats, and carefully carried them into the carriage. Although the second wife was unwilling, she climbed into the carriage and waited for Mrs. Gu to leave.

Mrs. Gu has been unable to move since she had a stroke. Even if she recuperates well, she can't walk a few steps now, but because of her illness, her temperament has become more left-handed. At this time, seeing her former favorite second daughter-in-law, Jiang Shi, not only did not show a smile, On the contrary, his eyes became more and more sinister.

Jiang shrank to one side, look, this is the reason why she didn't want to serve her mother-in-law out, if she wasn't not only her mother-in-law, but also her aunt, she would have quit.

The old lady's temper became more and more uncertain.

The carriage left through the side door, and soon met another carriage at the intersection.

The coachman glanced at Erlin across the way, shook his lips, thought of the old lady in the car, and finally kept his eyes peeled and pretended not to see him and avoided it.

Er Lin waved his hand for a moment, swallowed the greeting he blurted out immediately, and glanced curiously at the passing carriage.

That was obviously the carriage of the Hou Mansion, but who else would go out at this hour.

The carriage of Gu's mansion on Lingsheng Street entered Zhongyonghou's mansion smoothly, Li Baolu couldn't help leaning into Gu Jingyun's ear and said, "They are really waiting for us to come to the door, it seems that mother expected well."

It is still correct to listen to the old man's words.

Gu Jingyun snorted softly, took Li Baolu's hand to cover it with his wide sleeves, and the two walked towards the main courtyard.

Lord Gu and the second wife of the eldest house were all there, except Mrs. Gu and the second wife, Mrs. Jiang.

Li Baolu glanced at the children in Gu's mansion, and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, their gifts were prepared according to the ceremony of recognizing relatives, so they even prepared gifts for children, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.

Although the two sides have already divided their clans, Gu Jingyun did not call Gu Houye his grandfather in private, but Gu Houye, but when they met at this time, he had to call him grandfather.

Gu Hou Ye did not make things difficult for him, but was very close to him, he supported him when he bowed down, and said with a smile: "Okay, it's rare for you to come back, so there is no need for these empty gifts."

Master Gu sighed, "It's a pity that your father fell ill again, otherwise it would be a pity if he could come back and be worshiped by you this time when you hold a make-up wedding."

Gu Jingyun also had a sad face, but he comforted him: "There will always be a chance. Fortunately, Baolu paid homage to her father when we just returned home, so there is no regret."

Gu Houye nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Go and meet your uncle, auntie and the others."

Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu met Gu Huaide and the others again. Tang looked at Li Baolu and forced a smile: "Jingyun's daughter-in-law is getting more and more beautiful. If it weren't for Jing Yun leading her, she would hardly recognize me when she saw her on the street. .”

When Li Baolu first arrived in the capital, she was so ugly, black and earthy, but now, not only her clothes are luxurious, but her face has also turned white, and she is even more beautiful when she grows up.

Although his appearance is not as good as Gu Jingyun's, he is still considered the top talent among the younger generation of the Gu family.

And compared to Gu Jingyun, not to mention the Gu family, even the entire capital, who can compare to him?

Tang's heart ached when she thought of her daughters and nieces who had become increasingly difficult to get close to each other recently.

Li Baolu didn't know that Tang's thoughts were surging, and when she heard her praise, she just smiled, presented her with the gift, and whispered: "My aunt is getting younger and more beautiful."

Tang just smiled lightly, took the gift and handed it to the girl, and also gave her a meeting gift, these polite words are really without any sincerity.

Because of the unfavorable situation in the Hou Mansion, she has suffered unspeakably in the past two years, not to mention ten years older, at least she has been haggard, so how can she be young and good-looking?

Li Baolu followed Gu Jingyun and pretended to greet the masters and masters of the Hou Mansion, exchanged gifts, ate a meal, and left before dark.

Gu Jingyun did his best to be polite, and the Hou Mansion did not lose his manners. Although they only gave gifts when Gu Jingyun got married, and he did not show up, today's visit and reception can be regarded as suppressing the relevant rumors.

Although everyone was unhappy when they met, and there were all kinds of reactions, but fortunately, the trick was played out, which was beneficial to both parties.

It's just a pain for Mrs. Gu, I heard that she went to the Huguo Temple to offer incense that day, and returned home before arriving at the Huguo Temple, and fell ill after returning home.

This time it was not a stroke, but a normal wind chill.

But illnesses come and go like a mountain, and it's not easy to maintain a healthy body, and when she finally cured the cold, her vitality was also seriously injured, and her complexion that had been recuperated for a year went down again.

This made Mrs. Gu even more convinced that Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu were her nemesis, and every time she met them, nothing good would happen.
