Gu Huaifeng smiled and looked at Tang Youze and said, "Uncle Tang, I came here uninvited. I hope I didn't disturb you."
Tang Youze's eyes twitched slightly. "How often have I missed you coming uninvited?"
How many times have you come to Ying'er's courtyard? But you have always pretended not to know. After all, with the current status of Wenyong Mansion, it is impossible to reach Xuanpinghou Mansion!
"What are you talking about, nephew? We are a family. This is your home. You can come whenever you want!"
"Haha..." The two of them were chatting happily.
"Uncle, you also know that the capital has been strict in checking private property recently. I'm afraid that some people will be confused and do something wrong."
"However, these have nothing to do with us. After all, we are not officials in the court."
Tang Youze immediately understood Gu Huaifeng's intention, and he looked at him with contempt but did not show it on his face.
Although the Xuanping Marquis Mansion looks prosperous on the surface, everyone knows that it is only relying on the fact that they have produced Gu Qingchen, who is a figure who is one of the greatest in the Great Qi!
Although Gu Shengyue does not hold any official position, he is a marquis after all, and his brother is the regent. Who in the capital would not give face to Marquis Xuanping?
Tang Youze looked at Gu Huaifeng with a hint of contempt, after all, he was just looking at Chi Ran's dowry!
The Xuanping Marquis's Mansion is a wealthy and powerful family, but do they care so much about such a small dowry?
But Tang Youze thought about it and understood that the richer a person is, the more stingy he is!
"My dear nephew, you don't know that all the expenses of the family are taken care of by my mother and Aunt Mei, and I have no say in it!"
Gu Huaifeng understood as soon as he heard it. Ever since Chi Ran passed away, her dowry had been seized by the old lady and Mei Xiao'e in the Wenyong Marquis's Mansion. They said that they were managing it for Tang Chuyao, but in fact they were taking it for themselves!
"Uncle, you know the character of the younger generation. I am really worried that when Yaoyao and I get married, if her dowry is too small, not only will the Wenyong Earl's Mansion lose face, but if that person in the palace blames us..."
"Our Saint is very fond of him, and the laws of Da Qi are strict. I'm afraid that Wen Yongbo's mansion will be punished!"
After seeing Gu Huaifeng off, Tang Youze fell into deep thought. Although Gu Huaifeng was a playboy by nature and did not have much ability, what Wang Gang said was not without reason!
Thinking of this, Tang Youze headed towards Rong Jintang...
Gu Huaifeng had originally planned to leave Wen Yongbo's mansion directly, but on second thought, he decided to go and take a look at Tang Chuyao.
Although Tang Chuyao is currently devoted to him, he has been leaving her alone for fear that she will go to the imperial concubine to complain.
Du Juan was a little surprised at this time. When did they have anything to do with the Regent?
Looking at the big Buddha sitting in the yard, she almost cried. Why hasn’t the young lady come back yet?
When Gu Huaifeng arrived at Luoying Pavilion, he happened to see Gu Qingchen sitting in the yard drinking tea, looking so leisurely as if he was at home.
He immediately felt something strange in his heart, but soon stepped forward to greet him, "Nephew greets uncle!"
Gu Qingchen ignored him and sipped his tea. Gu Huaifeng knelt on the ground and didn't see Gu Qingchen asking him to stand up. He was a little puzzled. Who had provoked this gentleman again?
Gu Qingchen has always had an unstable temperament and seldom returns to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, so Gu Huaifeng doesn't know his uncle very well and doesn't know how to start the conversation for a while.
"How can a man like you enter an unmarried woman's yard without changing your expression?"
Gu Huaifeng had been kneeling for a long time when he heard Gu Qingchen's voice. He raised his head and looked at Gu Qingchen, then looked around himself and found that Gu Qingchen was talking to him.
But I think this is a bit strange. Isn’t Gu Qingchen also a man?
Although Gu Qingchen is his younger uncle, he is only three years older than him and is his grandfather's late-born son!
Although he secretly complained, Gu Huaifeng did not dare to show it. He was not sure what Gu Qingchen meant by this, so he could only say obediently, "My nephew felt that Chu Yao and I were in love with each other, so we didn't care about these rules."
"You have ruined the Gu family's tradition! How shameful!"
"Today, I will discipline you on behalf of my elder brother!"
Gu Huaifeng looked at Gu Qingchen in surprise, and couldn't believe his ears. What did he just hear? Gu Qingchen wanted to discipline him?
Ever since my father became Marquis Xuanping, Gu Qingchen has never cared about the affairs of Marquis Xuanping's Mansion. Why is he disciplining me now?
Before Gu Huaifeng could react, two people appeared out of nowhere, dragged Gu Huaifeng up from the ground, one on the left and one on the right, and then pressed Gu Huaifeng's mute point.
Woohoo…
Gu Huaifeng was about to cry. What was Gu Qingchen going to do?
And where did these people come from?
Ye Feng took out a stack of books and put them in Gu Huaifeng's hands, and then heard Gu Qingchen say, "Do horse stance for an hour!"
Gu Huaifeng didn't dare to resist and could only do as he was told. How could he stand in horse stance for an hour with his body that had never been exercised?
And I have to hold a pile of books!
Gu Huaifeng was sweating profusely and his legs were shaking. At this time, Gu Qingchen's voice came without any emotion, "If you drop a book, you will have to add one hour!"
Gu Qingchen, damn it!
Gu Qingchen played with the teacup in his hand, glanced at Gu Huaifeng and said, "Insulting an elder, you will be punished by one more hour!"
Gu Huaifeng: ...
Do you have the skills to read?
After being punished by Gu Qingchen, Gu Huaifeng almost forgot that he came to see Tang Chuyao.
How come I didn't see Tang Chuyao? And they made such a big noise. Is Tang Chuyao dead? Can't you hear anything?
Why don't you come out and rescue me?
Perhaps Gu Huaifeng's sincerity moved Xiao Cang, and Tang Chuyao finally came out.
Tang Chuyao had already returned when Gu Huaifeng stepped into the yard, but she was very curious why Gu Qingchen was in her yard!
Even though Huang Xiaoyu had gotten used to seeing Tang Chuyao's restored appearance these days, she still couldn't help but sigh that her little junior sister was so incredibly beautiful!
Her skin was whiter than snow, as delicate and smooth as white jade, and seemed to emit a soft glow in the sunlight.
Her oval face has beautiful contours, soft lines, and delicate facial features, like the most perfect masterpiece of nature.
Her eyebrows were like distant ink, neither thick nor thin, perfectly outlining her gentle temperament.
Her eyes are as crystal clear as glass, and her gaze is bright and lively. Her lips are naturally red, and when they are slightly opened, her pearly teeth are faintly visible, emitting a charming luster.
Dressed in a light and elegant silk dress, she stands gracefully like a fairy from a painting, her stunning beauty is unforgettable.
The fairies in heaven are no more than this!
After sneaking into the room with her senior sister, she began to apply some cream on her face. Soon her fair skin turned into a sallow, malnourished look.
