"That's right." Mr. Gu admitted readily.
"Who is it?" Han Yuqing couldn't control his emotions for a moment and rushed into the hall.
The elders all frowned at her, especially Han Tangping, who was so angry that he wanted to slap her twice. What was she doing coming in at this time
Madam Gu stood up and regretfully pulled Han Yuqing's hand: "Yuqing, aunt is sorry for you."
"Aunt." Han Yuqing looked at Madam Gu with tears in her eyes. This trick worked every time. Her aunt would definitely feel sorry for her and fulfill her wish.
However, she miscalculated this time. Mrs. Gu's love for her was a thing of the past, and she could not tolerate her son being despised and bullied! Especially after the poisoning incident in the restaurant yesterday!
Madam Gu sighed and said, "Yuqing, marriage requires mutual affection. Just pretend that our elders never mentioned this!"
"Aunt..." Han Yuqing clearly saw the alienation in her aunt's eyes, and her heart trembled. She had only been away from Pingning Town for a few days, so why did everything change? Was it because of what happened yesterday
What happened yesterday has nothing to do with her!
"Is it that Miss Xia Qianqian?" Han Tangping suddenly asked.
Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu were both shocked. Mr. Gu asked, "Oh, Uncle also knows that little girl?"
"I met him once at Gu's house." Han Tangping said.
Mrs. Gu was shocked: "This is impossible!"
"Everything is possible." Han Tangping looked at Madam Gu meaningfully. "The day after Changsheng Restaurant opened, we met Xia Qianqian, who was dressed as a man, at the Han family."
After a pause, Han Tangping continued, "It is really inappropriate for a girl to dress up as a man and go to the mansion to meet the young master. It also brings bad reputation to the Gu family. Considering the dignity of the Gu family, I did not mention this matter."
Mrs. Gu and Mr. Gu looked at each other, both very embarrassed.
"Sister, it's okay to let a little girl in, but it would be dangerous if you let someone with ambitions in," said Han Tangping.
"Yes, I will manage the household well after I go back and never let such a thing happen again." Mrs. Gu was horrified when she thought about it and did not dare to make any comments.
On the other hand, Master Gu was open-minded and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Uncle. The Gu family has very strict education and nothing has happened in these years. It must be Changsheng who gave instructions, so the servants let him go."
"I'm not sure about that. In times of famine, it's better to be cautious. I heard from people who came from the capital that there might be war in the spring. Although Pan County is a safe place, it is remote and the military force is insufficient. If something really happens, the rich and powerful will easily become the target of public criticism."
Mr. Gu's face changed drastically: "Uncle, is this news true?"
"No one can guess the emperor's mind. He can change the weather with a wave of his hand. Who knows?" Han Tangping said mysteriously.
"I see. Thank you for your advice, uncle." Master Gu bowed and said, "Will Yuqing go to the talent show next year?"
Han Tangping glared at Master Gu and said, "If it weren't for immortality, Yuqing would have gone to the talent show three years ago."
Mrs. Gu shuddered: "Three years ago?"
Three years ago, Gu Changsheng was still a big fool, and Han Yuqing despised him. How could the Han family decide to marry Yuqing to Changsheng three years ago
"It's also Yuqing's fault that she was so infatuated and refused to listen to me. Her mother died early, and there was no one to comfort her. Not only did she have to wait for three years, but she also ended up sad." Han Tangping sighed. Although he did not blame the Gu family directly, he expressed his resentment very clearly.
