Chapter 37

Sheng Hong looked at a large group of sons and daughters with loving face. They were either noble families, or Jinshi and the first degree. The prosperity of the family was just around the corner, and he couldn't help but nodded with great comfort.

Gu Tingye and Minglan saluted Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang first, they were returning home to salute,

After the two got up, Mrs. Wang smiled all over her face as usual,

"General, my Minglan didn't cause you any trouble!"

Yuan Wenshao almost couldn't hold back the laughter. My mother-in-law always asked questions like this every time. Fortunately, it was the last one. Hua Lan glared at Yuan Wenshao hard. She knew that Yuan Wenshao was laughing at her mother. With a smile on his face, he looked very upright.

Hua Lan gave her an annoyed look, "You're smart!"

Gu Tingye's answer was also very good: "Ming Lan is polite and sensible, gentle and virtuous, and everyone in the Gu family loves her very much."

Sheng Hong also smiled all over his face.

"Look at all of you getting married and getting married, you can feel relieved to be a father!"

Then Mrs. Wang introduced Aunt Kang and his wife to Gu Tingye. The only close relatives in Beijing were these two couples. Gu Tingye and Ming Lan also bowed down to salute.

Uncle Kang is okay, although she is dazed, but she is more or less someone who came out of the officialdom, knowing that it is always good to have more relatives, so she nodded with a smile, but she couldn't help but envy her brother-in-law Sheng Hong, who is really a son and daughter Everyone's future.

Aunt Kang was full of anger and jealousy. Because of family reasons, she couldn't understand those concubine sons and daughters gaining power. She usually treated those concubine sons and daughters as ants. Du Wuji turned into a phoenix and married into the back door, secretly resenting that she must be taught a lesson in the future, and she gave a faint hum on her face, looking very reserved!

The next few Lan also brought their sons-in-law to salute. Mrs. Wang may also be in good spirits on happy occasions, and she is not as indifferent to Liang Han as before. The two sons-in-law are treated equally, although he likes his elder son-in-law more in his heart, but he can also be like the light, and he is careful to tell them one by one, showing a loving father's heart.

On this day, the Duke and Duchess celebrated their birthday. Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan went to the Duke’s residence to celebrate the Duke’s and his wife’s birthday. Yuan Wenshao watched for a long time during the banquet in the front hall, but he didn’t find Gu Tingye and Yuzhou’s officers, except Shen Congxing. Because he is a son-in-law, he entertains guests here. Shen Congxing knows that Yuan Wenshao and Gu Tingye are brothers-in-law, and they both met when Xijiao Daying and Gu Tingye got married. It is considered that he has few people he knows well, so he keeps pulling Yuan Wenshao. say,
"Brother Yuan, I heard from Gu Erlang that Brother Yuan is the number one military general of our Great Zhou. He has the courage to be undeserved. I must give advice to my younger brother someday!"

Yuan Wenshao also knew that Shen Congxing was a good man, and he was also a brave soldier on the battlefield, but he was a little indecisive emotionally.
"Haha, brother Shen was joking, it was just a compliment from others. I heard from that boy Gu Er that brother Shen was also nicknamed Meng Zhang Fei in Yuzhou, and he was also a fierce general. Let's make an appointment when we have a chance later. Let's have a drink together!"

While they were talking, the British father-in-law and the young father-in-law Zhang Weizhong came over, and they both snorted at Shen Congxing, obviously they didn't want to see this son-in-law and brother-in-law very much. , and this little Zou family has been sealed,

It is rare for a concubine's house to confer imperial orders, unless the son is really outstanding and outstanding, and has made great contributions to the country and the community, then the mother can get the imperial edict based on the son.
It is said that because of this matter, the British father-in-law and his wife were very angry, and the officials and the empress also comforted them. Anyway, Yuan Wenshao felt that the emperor, the empress, and Shen Congxing, the uncle of the country, were a bit too much. Human face.

The two of them didn't like to see Shen Congxing very much, and they were very enthusiastic about Yuan Wenshao. After all, the relationship between the two families has always been good. After a few people exchanged pleasantries for a while, the British Duke called Shen Congxing away. I don't know if there was any explanation. Two people, Yuan Wenshao asked:
"Why didn't you see Gu Er today? That kid didn't come today because of something?"

Zhang Weizhong was a little embarrassed, but decided to tell the truth,
"It was my mother who refused to invite them!"

Yuan Wenshao is surprised, it sounds like there is something wrong here!
"What's going on, tell me, Gu Er and his wife are not careful in what they do, offending auntie!"

"That's not true, Wen Shao, you also know that my mother has the most staunch temper. Now people are spreading rumors about your wife, sister, and concubine, who have no respect for elders, are not filial to the aunt, and so on. My mother respects these rules the most. After I got married, I didn't let them invite the couple, maybe because you are relatives, some words haven't reached your ears yet, Wen Shao, you also talk to your wife, let her persuade her sister, but now it's spread outside It's going to be ups and downs, if things go on like this, the Sheng family will lose face!"

Yuan Wenshao secretly thought that this little Qin family is really powerful, and it has not been long, and it has already become like this. Fortunately, that girl Minglan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so the Gu family will have to make a fuss for a while.

After the banquet was over, Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan drove home together. Hua Lan was very annoyed along the way.

"Those thieves, talkative, talking nonsense, I don't know if she is a girl, she has always been raised by her grandmother, she is the most well-behaved and sensible, how could it be like that, it is really annoying, it must be outside It’s nonsense, no, I have to go to Minglan to have a look and tell her about it!”

Yuan Wenshao comforted:

"Don't worry, it takes a long time to see people's hearts. A momentary rumor is nothing, and you will know it after a long time!"

Hua Lan was still furious but directly ordered his servants not to return to the Hou's Mansion, but to go directly to General Yunhui's mansion next door!

When they arrived at the General's Mansion, Gu Tingye and his wife were very enthusiastic and they were not outsiders. They went to visit the garden together. Gu Tingye and Yuan Wenshao walked in front, and Minglan and Hualan walked behind arm in arm.
"Today, Hualan and I went to the British Duke's Mansion to celebrate the Duke's wife's birthday. During the dinner, Hualan heard some bad rumors about your couple, so I insisted on coming over to see!"

Gu Tingye really didn't care,
"I know, I'm used to this kind of treatment, but Minglan is a little bit involved!"

After speaking, she was still a little sad, which shows that she really loves Minglan.

Yuan Wenshao thought, that girl Minglan probably doesn't care more than you, so she changed the subject.

"I also saw General Shen Congxing today. I think the Duke and Duchess don't like him very much!"

Gu Tingye is a bit dignified now. He has good friends with King Huan and his uncle. They can be regarded as a line of people. They were originally married for the purpose of making good friends with the British public. Now it is a bit embarrassing. You must know that the emperor is not just a child of King Huan.
"Brother Shen did not do this properly!"

Yuan Wenshao also sighed:

"When it is broken, it will be disrupted."

Gu Tingye nodded solemnly, he was determined to persuade Shen Congxing, if this continues, he will become enemies.
