Gu Fuyun was very depressed to meet Mrs. Su even when he went out.After arriving at Gu's house, he deliberately brought the topic to Wu'an Hou's house, and then calmly led it to Mrs. Su.

"Today, I met Mrs. Su Hou on the way. I was traveling in five carriages. I don't know what to do?"

The Dasheng Dynasty also had travel rules, the emperor drove eight, the prince's family drove five, the Qing drove four, and the scholar-officials drove three.In practice, most people would not really use pomp and pomp on horses.After all, raising a horse is comparable to raising a car in modern times.Who would struggle with money for unnecessary ostentation?Furthermore, when horses travel, they often defecate and pee on the street, which really affects the appearance of the city.Later, the imperial court stipulated that horses should take care of their own excrement, and offenders would be fined silver.Therefore, the nobles had to halve the guard of honor when they traveled.At most there are three carriages, and most people are only one carriage.It's not that I don't want to show off, but that it's really not cost-effective to mobilize the crowd.

Old Mrs. Gu: "...After you married into the Duke's mansion, how come the news has been blocked? Today is the day when the prince of the mighty Marquis made a promise to his bride. Even if Su Liu was adopted by the mighty Marquis, but with Marquis Wu An It is still a clan. Madam Su, as an elder, is also worthy of going to the bride's house to make a decision."

Gu Fuyun suddenly realized that although Su Liu was still called Su Lan, he was already the son of a mighty Marquis, and he was engaged to Miss Fang Si, the niece of the Imperial Academy Jijiu.Marriages have been cumbersome since ancient times, and making an appointment is a rather grand procedure. In order to give the bride attention, the man makes an appointment to the woman, and the family will send out heavyweight elders.

At the beginning when the Chu family made a decision with Gu Fuyun, not only Mrs. Chu came, but even the Chu clan also had many important elders.

But Gu Fuyun still felt that Mrs. Su could only travel in three carriages in the past, so why must she travel under the Marquis' regulation today?

There is no one in the Gu family who does not hate Mrs. Su, so much so that a group of well-bred ladies in the Gu family spared no effort to gossip about Mrs. Su.

Mrs. Zhou said flatly: "I heard that Mrs. Su's life has not been very easy recently. Not only has she been deprived of the power of housekeeper, Marquis Su has also taken in a third concubine. The only daughter is also married far away. The marriage is strict and old-fashioned. The famous Kong family."

The old-fashioned prestige of the Kong family is well-known. Although it is far away in Shandong, its old-fashioned reputation is still famous in the capital.According to the rules of the Confucian family, only chaste archways are allowed, and no married women are allowed.The men of the Confucian family have scum from every generation.The female family members of the Confucian family generally do not live long, and the average life expectancy is only [-]. It is said that the rules of the Confucian family are too strict.

Su San married only a younger brother, and Gu Fuyun happily ate this gossip melon.

At Mrs. Su's age, whether a man takes a concubine has little effect on her, but losing the housekeeping power means losing power.Although Gu Fuyun was happy to see this person's jokes, he also took this as a warning, hoping that he would not follow Mrs. Su's old path in the future, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, be humble, be cautious, and serve the big boss well.

Around Shen Shi, Chu Rui came to pick up Gu Fuyun.

Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Fuyun meaningfully, and then ordered everyone to eat in the Songhe Hall, and men and women would eat separately, so that they could not only entertain the uncle, but also have a lot of fun.

Chu Rui is wearing a sky blue gown with round neck and sleeves embroidered with the pattern of the Five Blessings Group. Inside, he wears a white cross-collared mid-sole. Black sheepskin boots look tall and chic.Not only has the suaveness of a wealthy family, but also the cleanliness of a warrior.

Facing Chu Rui, who came to Yue's house to pick up his wife after leaving Yamen, Qiao was extremely satisfied, and felt that her daughter had come to the end of all hardships.After eating, Chu Rui took Gu Fuyun away, and the carriage stopped directly at the second gate. Seeing that Chu Rui personally helped Gu Fuyun into the carriage, Qiao felt quite relieved.

Gu Fuyun counted the people Chu Rui and himself brought, there were more than [-] people, each of them was full of wine and food, and he couldn't bear it, so he said: "In the future, when you go back to your mother's house, don't bring so many people with you. Bar."

Chu Rui is puzzled.

"There are so many people eating and drinking, and if I come again a few times, I'm afraid I will make my mother's family poor."

Chu Rui was stunned, then didn't know whether to laugh or cry, rubbed her hard into his arms, and said: "Little heartless people know how to save money. Don't you know that some money can't be saved?"

……

Yin Moli is going to get married in a few days, and Gu Fuyun is also going to visit Yin Moli at Yin's house.

This time Yingyu only arranged for four guards to travel.

Seeing Gu Fuyun's doubts, Yingyu explained: "It's only two streets away to go to the Shangshu Mansion, and there will be five city soldiers and horses patrolling along the way, so it's safe."

The proximity of the road is one thing, and safety is another. The main reason is that the eldest lady of the Yin family will soon be the crown princess, and she is too incapable of showing off in front of the crown princess.

Gu Fuyun didn't say anything, and went to Yin's house.Looking at the Sanjin courtyard of Shangshu Mansion, I realized how prescient Yingyu's arrangement was.

Although Shangshu belongs to the high-ranking officials of the imperial court, there will be a sword and crossbow battalion responsible for protecting safety, and usually the soldiers and horses of the five cities will also concentrate their forces to patrol and protect safety.But the mansion of Shangshu's mansion is not big, mainly because Yin Shangshu was originally from a poor family, and it is the result of years of hard work to have such a house.

Yin's house is really not spacious. When Gu Fuyun came to the door, the guards he brought had no place to put their feet, so they could only be arranged in the back room.

As the wedding day approached, Yin's family was already so busy that they were overwhelmed with guests every day.The gifts from each family piled up the entire front and back yards with no place to set foot.

A mother Lu who claimed to be the steward of Yin's family hurried forward.

"Mrs. Shizi came from a long way, and I didn't greet you from afar. Please forgive me." Nanny Lu said to Gu Fuyun with a poignant smile, "Madam is entertaining guests, please come with me, Mrs. Shizi."

Today's Gu Fuyun is no longer a boudoir girl. In the past, when she went to her best friend's house, she could be taken directly to Yin Moli's house without alarming her elders.Now she is a married woman, representing the Duke Protector's Mansion.Even if you want to meet your best friend, you still have to meet the head wife.

Mrs. Yin lives in the second entrance courtyard, and after stepping through the second gate, the yard is full of boxes and cages, and there is no place to set foot, so she can only pass through the Chaoshou corridor.

As soon as he entered the hall, a woman shouted loudly: "The protector of the country, Mrs. Shizi, is here."

Everyone in the room looked at Gu Fuyun who came in.

Gu Fuyun glanced at them and saw that they were all ladies whom he didn't know very well. There were two elderly women sitting on both sides of the rectangular table in the center of the main hall, and the one sitting on the left said to Gu Fuyun: " Mrs. Shizi came to the door, and I am far away from welcoming you, please forgive me."

Gu Fuyun had seen this old woman before, she was Yin Shangshu's first wife, Niu Shi.Yin Moli's biological grandmother.But this woman is not a good stubble, not only patriarchal, but also particularly partial and mean.Yin Moli lost her father in her early years, leaving only an orphan and a widow. It stands to reason that normal people should feel more pity for this pair of orphans and widows.But this Niu family is not only mean to Mrs. Yin who is a lowly widow, but even her own granddaughter.Fortunately, Yin Shangshu was a fair man, and under his suppression, the old wife did not do anything more outrageous.But with such a grandmother, the life of Yin Moli and her daughter is still not easy.Fortunately, Yin Moli is a gifted person who is about to transform into a butterfly.

Even though he doesn't like Niu, he still got the proper etiquette. Gu Fuyun saluted Mrs. Yin and said, "You came here uninvited, and I hope you will forgive me." Gifts come in.

"This is a congratulatory gift from the Chu family to your mansion. It's a mere gift, and it's not a respect. I hope Madam will not dislike it." He signaled Qinghong to send the gift list.

Mrs. Yin opened the long gift list, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Madam Shizi, Madam Shizi has a heart." Looking carefully at the gift list, there are all congratulatory gifts such as bowls, chopsticks and tableware. Of course, there are a few decent ones. Fans, step-by-step carved blessing character pen holders, jade paperweights engraved with auspicious wishes, gold-plated silver ear spoons, Jinbaoxiang scissors... There are a lot of them, taking up three big gift lists. In fact, they are all seemingly valuable It's a tasteless thing that's not worth much.Compared with the golden chrysanthemum bonsai and coral stone sent by Wangbeihou Mansion, it is eight blocks away.

Mrs. Yin felt dissatisfied for a moment when she saw these gift lists, thinking that the dignified Lord Protector would only give such fancy but useless things.I don't know if it's because Gu's eyelids are shallow and he is reluctant to give it away, or the Huguo Gongfu is in despair.

No matter what the reason is, Mrs. Yin is not happy.But the visitor is a guest, so it's not good to dislike the bad gift from others on the spot, and invite Gu Fuyun to take a seat.

Gu Fuyun smiled and said: "There is no need to bother Madam, I want to visit Sister Yin first."

Suddenly, it occurred to Mrs. Gu that she had a good personal relationship with her granddaughter, and Mrs. Yin didn't want to see her even more, so she said with a smile: "Mrs. Shizi and Jasmine have a very close relationship. This old man knows it. Then this old man will not keep Mrs. Chu, come on." People, lead the way for Mrs. Chu."

After Gu Fuyun left the yard, he shouted loudly behind his back: "Cao Hua's family, you must remind Mrs. Chu that the humble house is small and the storeroom cannot hold the gifts from each household, so they can only be placed in the courtyard. Madam Chu should be careful where she steps. Don't knock on it."

As Mrs. Yin said, the gifts from every household really filled the entire courtyard, and the boxes and cages were crowded together, and it could be seen that there were many valuables.

Facing the flamboyant Mrs. Yin, Gu Fuyun turned a deaf ear and came to the west courtyard far away from the main house.This is a small courtyard built with three bungalows, with a wall built and a door in the middle, separating a small world.

These three rooms are where Yin Moli lived for more than ten years.

Now Yin Moli is not what it used to be. Not only are there warriors guarding the courtyard inside and outside, there are also two little eunuchs guarding the door.After being notified, Gu Fuyun was able to enter the courtyard.

Gu Fuyun came here once, the small yard was so simple and simple before, not only was it newly decorated, the yard was filled with a lot of boxes and objects, many maidservants dressed as palace servants shuttled back and forth, and some of them were in the registration box objects, and some holding objects in and out of the house from time to time.

Yin Jasmine was wearing a pair of skirts with purple brocade satin, a long ginger skirt inside, a large golden hairpin inlaid with rubies, and a gold step rocker dotted with emeralds on her hair, looking dignified and graceful.
