"Xiao Yufu, are you speaking ill of us behind our backs?"

The sudden voices of Gu Xiang and Gu Yi came from outside the door, startling Yu Fu, she looked at Gu Shubai in surprise.

The latter smiled at her, with red lips and white teeth, and the arc of his smile was like a crescent moon.

"Big brother is bad! You already knew that the fifth brother and the sixth brother were coming, so you let me guess on purpose!"

Gu Shubai knew that Yu Fu, Gu Xiang, and Gu Yi were noisy and noisy, so he would definitely say something funny.

I don't think what she said is so funny.

Gu Xiang twisted Yufu's face as he wished, being careful with the movements of his hands, for fear of hurting her.

"If you don't think so, Big Brother won't let you say it. It can be seen that you still look down on us in your heart!"

Gu Xiang said angry words, but his face was full of smiles.

Yufu's small face is so tender and smooth, it's exactly the same as what the book said about blowing and playing...

"It hurts!"

Yu Fu flattened her mouth, her big dark eyes flickered, as if she was about to shed tears.

Gu Lian hurriedly let go, and sure enough, he saw a red mark on Yu Fu's tender face.

Gu Shubai and Gu Yi cast murderous glances at him.

"I, I didn't use my strength! It's because Xiao Yufu's skin is too tender!"

Gu Xiang looked aggrieved, and wanted to rub Yu Fu's face, but Gu Shubai had snatched that little girl away.

"Don't move, I'll rub it for you."

Yu Fu stayed obediently in his arms, the redness on her face slowly recovered.

Seeing Gu Shubai's fingertips gently back and forth on her face, Gu Yi's heart ached beyond measure.

He really wanted to rub Yufu's face...

The maids stood aside, watching the interesting interaction between their brothers and sisters, they couldn't help smiling.

Only Qi Ting felt very uncomfortable seeing Yufu being favored so much.

She took the fan and walked halfway, when she saw Gu Xiang and Gu Yi walking towards the west chamber, she was very happy to be with the three young masters at the same time.

But in the eyes of the three of them, only Yu Fu...

"Father, there are many rumors about Yufu in the imperial capital, have you heard of it?"

In the study room of the outer courtyard, Gu Shubai and Gu Huaijiang reported some affairs in the army, and they mentioned Yu Fulai to him.

Gu Huaijiang pondered for a moment.

He also knew that any disturbance in Guhou's mansion would become a hot topic in the imperial capital.

What's more, there is such a living person as Yufu.

"The big tree attracts the wind. Our Guhou Mansion is extremely rich, so we should keep a low profile in everything. Therefore, I didn't report back in the Golden Palace about being injured by the poisonous arrows of the Xikun people. The matter of Yufu... don't let others know Too clear."

Gu Shubai understood his feelings, but he had a different opinion on the matter of Yufu.

"My boy thinks that if Yufu's identity is not made public, the outside world will be more and more suspicious. Since outsiders already know about Yufu, why not let her show her face in a big way? Let others have no doubts, It also allows others to know her identity and not dare to provoke Yu Fu when she walks in the imperial capital in the future."

What he said also made sense.

A beautiful and spirited little girl like Yufu must attract people's attention when she goes out, so she simply disclosed her identity openly and frightened others with the prestige of Guhou Mansion.

Gu Huaijiang looked up at him and said, "Then what do you think is the best time for Yufu to show up?"

"Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, according to the customs of our imperial capital, most of the families of the court officials will take turns to host banquets. Our Guhou Mansion has never participated in it, but this year we can follow the custom and let Yufu officially show off noodle."

"Alright, I'll leave it to you to hold a banquet in the mansion. Let me tell you the truth. I think there are quite a few people who are willing to come to the banquet."

Gu Huaijiang spoke seriously, but Gu Shubai was secretly amused.

If one hears that Guhou's mansion is going to hold a banquet, one is afraid that those who want to come will step through the threshold, how can there be many words that can be generalized

In the blink of an eye, it was the Dragon Boat Festival, and on the first day, Yufu heard about the customs of the festival from Mrs. Li.

"In Dongling, the Dragon Boat Festival is a very important festival. It can drive away evil spirits and avoid evil. Not only must we hang mugwort and calamus on the door, we must also eat rice dumplings, drink realgar wine, and wear sachets..."

"Zongzi!"

Yu Fu obviously had eaten zongzi, and he couldn't help swallowing when he mentioned these two words.

Aunt Li was amused by her appearance as a snack, "Yes, miss, do you like rice dumplings? You can eat them tomorrow. Tomorrow the mansion will hold a banquet to entertain guests, and Master Hou specially ordered miss to be brought to the front hall Will the lady be nervous when meeting guests?"

"nervous?"

Before Yufu woke up from the fantasy about zongzi, Aunt Li started talking about the serious business.

She subconsciously shook her head.

"Isn't it the ministers? The ministers who can come to the Hou's mansion as guests, even if they are not friends of the general, are also colleagues at the court. I am not nervous."

Although she grew up in Immortal Valley, it is not that she has never met courtiers, she even—

I have seen bigger scenes.

Aunt Li was delighted when she heard that, she thought that tomorrow would be Yufu's first public appearance, so she must be dressed up beautifully.

Qi Ting stood aside, secretly sneering in her heart.

A wild girl who doesn't know where, Lord Hou actually treats her like a serious lady, and specially hosts a banquet to introduce her

Bah, she deserves it too

She had already had a good idea in her heart, to make Yu Fu unable to see anyone tomorrow...

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Xiang and Gu Yi came to the west chamber early, saying that they would hang wormwood on Yufu's door with their own hands.

Aunt Li blocked Yufu's bedroom, smiling and not letting them in.

"Five sons and six sons, the lady is dressing up, don't go in yet, please have a cup of tea here and wait a while!"

The two had to sit down in the outer room, when Lianbi came up to pour tea, Gu Xiang and Gu Yi looked at the table.

"Hey, why are there so many sachets?"

There were two trays on the table, and there were five sachets of different shapes inside, exuding a faint aroma of wormwood.

Lianbi smiled and said, "This is sent by Master Hou Chenqi and the other four young masters, so there are five in total."

Gu Xiang and Gu Yi glanced at each other, looking at the freshly picked wormwood in his hand, he suddenly felt that he was reflected like a beggar.

"Oh, why didn't we think of it, how nice it is to give a sachet!"

Gu Yi threw away the wormwood that was still stained with mud in his hands in disgust, and patted the dust on his hands.

"I wasted so much energy, picking some wormwood early in the morning, and now I'm going to make Yufu laugh again!"

"The fifth and sixth brothers picked the wormwood for me. I like it before it's too late. How could it be a joke?"

Yu Fu's voice came from inside, and a small figure walked around the screen and walked slowly to the two of them.

Gu Xiang and Gu Yi saw Yu Fu clearly in front of them, and they all gave out admiration at the same time.

"Wow-"
