Chapter 197 It's Better to Sell Her Fifth Cousin While She's Not Around

The next day.

In the early morning, a servant from the front yard came to Mingde Court to spread the word that the third master would return home today, and that Songshou Court would hold a family banquet in the evening, so Xiao Tingchen must come there then.

Xiao Tingchen agreed, and after sending the boy away, he changed his clothes, saying that he was going to visit an old friend at Jiming Temple, and he would be back before evening.

He didn't bring Su wine.

The little girl tidied up the house, not only curious about who the old friend Xiao Tingchen went to visit at Jiming Temple, but also curious about the appearance and temperament of the third master in Xiao's mansion.

However, being able to insist on not marrying a wife for so many years for the sake of the beloved woman is considered an infatuation.

She thought to herself in this room, and on the other side, Songjuyuan.

Gu Mingyu stepped into the hall with a smile, and blessed the old lady, "Greetings to grandma! Grandma looks very good today, but why is the third master coming back?"

The old lady is sitting upright and drinking tea.

He raised his eyelids and looked at the grand-nephew of her natal family. She was obviously just a noble concubine, but she was already wearing a red dress, with a few golden steps on the hairpin, which was extremely luxurious.

Looking at her demeanor, those who don't know her may think that she is the head of some official family, which is really breaking the rules.

It can be seen that she did not reflect on herself during the time she returned to Gusu.

The old lady put down the almond tea in displeasure, "You still know how to come back?"

"That's right." Gu Mingyu walked behind her and squeezed her shoulders carefully, "During the time she returned to Gusu, Mingyu had already reflected on herself, and should not casually attack her husband. Put your husband first in everything.”

She smiled slightly, "Speaking of which, when Mingyu came back last night, she happened to pass by the old courtyard, and Mingyu saw Fifth Cousin..."

She hesitated.

The old lady's face became a little colder, "Say what you have to say, what are you doing in front of me? You're so petty!"

Gu Mingyu walked up to her and knelt down, and said aggrievedly: "Old lady, last night, Mingyu saw that girl named Su Jiu from Mingde Court taking her fifth cousin to a brothel..."

"brothel?"

"Mingyu sees it absolutely, it's a brothel! As far as Mingyu knows, that girl Su Jiu was born in a poor and humble family. She grew up in the middle class of the market since she was a child. She probably has no education. In order to please her master, she took her fifth cousin to the brothel. What is a brothel? Alas, Mingyu is afraid that if this continues, Fifth Cousin's future will be ruined in her hands!"

She had a worried look on her face and said something like that.

It's just that the lips covered by the veil quietly burst into a smile.

The old lady frowned, "That girl seems to be an honest and law-abiding girl, but she dares to bring down my descendants of the Xiao family?"

Gu Mingyu took a few steps on his knees, and urged: "My fifth cousin has a bright future, and she has such a deed that her heart can be punished! Mingyu thought that it would be better to sell her while fifth cousin is away!"

The old lady glanced at her, and the young girl was full of complacency but didn't know it.

She twirled the tourmaline bead string in her hand, her eyes filled with thought.

Her niece and grand-niece have always been petty, and it's not impossible for her to avenge her private revenge.

Could it be that she has some quarrel with that little girl?
If this is the case, she will have to reconsider her complaint just now.

Thinking of this, he said, "Go, bring me Su Jiu from Mingde Yuan."

Su Jiu was washing Xiao Tingchen's clothes when he was called to Songshouyuan for no reason. When he stepped into the hall, he caught sight of Gu Mingyu who was smiling so hard that his teeth could not see his eyes.

The little girl clenched her hands tightly, secretly thinking that it was not good.
