Chapter 229

Seeing the uncontrollable joy on Zhao Junsheng's face, Wei Hanzhang's eyes widened. He didn't expect that with just a few words, his cousin would relax and be willing to talk to him alone.

What kind of thing is this? If it were her, she had written a divorce letter and still dared to come to the door without asking anyone to call him out. It was already very humiliating, and she still had a private chat with him?

After Jiang Zhiqin stood up, she smiled at her sisters and said, "I'll come back as soon as I go, you don't have to worry."

"..." The spectators were really angry. Wei Hanzhang snorted angrily and looked away, unwilling to look.

Zhao Junsheng and Jiang Zhiqin went to the side to talk, leaving Gu Yunran, who had come with him, with the girls. They stood there quietly without saying a word from beginning to end.

Wei Hanzhang glanced out of the corner of his eye, paused slightly with the hand holding the tea cup, and realized that this man had changed greatly.

In his memory, the young man in bright clothes and angry horse had such a surly temperament, but now he has become calm and collected.

Suddenly there was an extra person, and the atmosphere was actually a bit awkward. Jiang Zhixue and Jiang Zhiqi looked at each other, and still said hello: "Brother Gu, please sit down. I'm standing there alone. I don't have to say that I, the Jiang family, don't know how to treat guests." way."

It's not wrong to say that Gu Yunran is a guest.

After all, no matter what, the Gu and Jiang families are close friends. Although the marriage between Gu Yunran and Wei Hanzhang failed, in the end it was the princess who had to interfere, so the Gu family cannot be blamed entirely for their betrayal.

Moreover, their ancestral home is in Xuzhou, and now they have arrived in the capital together, they are natural allies. In recent days, the two families have been moving around frequently, which is why Zhao Junsheng asked him to come together.

A servant immediately brought a chair down, and after Gu Yunran glanced around, he sat down.

He raised his hand to pick up the teapot and poured tea for several girls. When it was Wei Hanzhang's turn, he didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Finally, he filled it for himself and suddenly said something unexpected.

He asked: "Tianjia Restaurant's daughter's red, how does it taste?"

Jiang Zhiqi and Jiang Zhixue were a little confused, but Wei Hanzhang was startled after hearing this.

In the early years, Tianjia Restaurant was very famous in Xuzhou City, especially for its exclusive secret recipe of Nürhong. Later, I heard that the restaurant was compromised and suffered heavy losses. The old shopkeeper was disheartened and took his family back home. Rural pension.

The name of Tianjia Restaurant was gradually forgotten.

The reason why Gu Yunran asked this was because the jar of Nuerhong in Cao Garden was the one he bought at Tianjia Restaurant.

At that time, she was invited by Cao Xinrou to have a small gathering in the Cao Family Courtyard. She passed by the Tianjia Restaurant and saw the guests gathering inside and the aroma of wine overflowing. She casually mentioned it to Gu Yunran. The next day, the man came with two jars of wine. she.

One of the jars was shared by the two of them. Gu Yunran dug a hole in the other jar and she filled it with soil and buried it in the Cao family's yard.

Speaking of which, when they were young and ignorant, they did a lot of things like this. They liked to bury things wherever they went, carve a mark on them, and make an agreement to visit the place again in the future.

Thinking of those carefree years, Wei Hanzhang felt mixed emotions in his heart. He glanced at him and said, "Didn't you drink it before?"

The two of them hid and drank a lot. She was only twelve years old and he was only fourteen.

Gu Yunran said: "I haven't drunk anything that has been buried in the ground for three years."

"...Then I didn't drink it either," Wei Hanzhang said, "I didn't get the wine back. I don't know who drank it."

When they started talking to each other without anyone else, Jiang Zhiqi and the two sisters were at a loss to get a word in.

Wei Hanzhang was very open-minded in his heart and did not feel that he and Gu Yunran had anything to be embarrassed about. However, thinking of His Highness the Crown Prince who was so petty and addicted to vinegar, she restrained herself and didn't say much.

Gu Yunran saw her coldness, so he lowered his head to drink tea and stopped answering.

The atmosphere became tense again. Fortunately, after a while, a servant came in a hurry. When he came closer, he reported: "Mr. Gu, someone from your house called you back and said it was... that she was your wife..."

The imperial edict to deal with Qi Yuxiao was issued yesterday. Even if the servant said it vaguely, everyone in the room understood its meaning.

Wei Hanzhang's pupils dilated slightly. He didn't expect Xiao Boqian to act so quickly. Yesterday the emperor summoned her to the palace for questioning about this matter, but today Qi Yuxiao was already dead.

She subconsciously turned her gaze to Gu Yunran, who happened to be looking at her as well. The next moment their eyes met, he looked away, stood up and said, "I have something to do at home, I'll take my leave first."

After the others hurried away, there was silence in the courtyard for a while. Jiang Zhixue suddenly said: "His Royal Highness is very affectionate towards Ran Ran. His biological niece will die as soon as she is told to die, leaving no room for relaxation."

He even acted more decisively, as if he was afraid that the emperor would be begged by Princess Changle to be soft-hearted.

Wei Hanzhang didn't know what to say for a moment, so he opened his mouth but said nothing.

Her memory of Qi Yuxiao still remains at the Qi Banquet at the Duke of Qi's Mansion.

She was an arrogant and domineering girl who was loved by thousands of people. No one in the entire capital was more noble than her, not even the royal family princess who was born in the royal family.

On the day she got hairpins, major aristocratic families in the capital came to celebrate. Her biological uncle, the Crown Prince, sent someone to give him a nine-section whip. All the ladies present were envious, including Wei Hanzhang himself. Didn't she also envy them for having a good uncle at that time...

As a result, now, the good uncle whom everyone envied took her life with his own hands.

Who can help but sigh that things are impermanent.

Even Wei Hanzhang felt unrealistic. Even if she heard Xiao Boqian's attitude yesterday, she still felt that Qi Yuxiao would not be sentenced to death so easily.

She sat in a daze until Jiang Zhiqin came back, and then she suddenly came back to her senses.

Jiang Zhiqi looked behind his sister-in-law and asked, "...Where is that person?"

Jiang Zhiqin looked calm, sat down and replied, "Of course I left."

"Seriously?" Jiang Zhiqin was extremely pleased and said with a sigh of relief: "I'm really worried that sister, you'll be coaxed back home with just a few words."

Jiang Zhixue's face showed relief at night: "We should toss him a few times, so that he can improve his memory and realize that our daughter is not someone he can have when he wants or not."

"What are you talking about?" Seeing the sisters looking at her, Jiang Zhiqin smiled slightly and said, "I have no intention of going back with him and living in that quadrangle."

Wei Hanzhang was stunned: "I see that you are willing to talk to him, so..."

"Now that he's here, I have to give him an answer."

Jiang Zhiqin said: "After I was divorced and returned home, I realized that marrying and having children should not be a woman's only destiny. Husband and wife are birds in the same forest. They fly separately when disaster strikes. I don't blame him for abandoning me for the sake of the family, but I am determined not to do it either." Forgive him."

"Being fucked once by someone is already a sign of my incompetence. If I don't learn a lesson and give the other person a chance to fuck me again, that would be ignorance."
