Chapter 391 The Most Useless One in the Family
Every family has its share of messy problems.
If the regent ministers use even this little thing as an excuse, the Queen Mother will retaliate, and then they will have no peace.
A relationship that was originally balanced and harmonious may become hostile.
As long as the Queen Mother does not make mistakes on principles and major issues, the Regent will not do anything to her.
Father Gu first asked the servants to clean the door of Shen's house, and then he brought his wife and children to apologize again, enduring the whip wounds on his body and mouth.
This time the Shen family let them in.
Old Madam Shen and the wife of Marquis Dingguo were sitting in the hall, while Gu Yang's family stood awkwardly in the middle.
Father Gu cupped his hands and said, "Old Madam, Marquis Dingguo... Yang'er was wrong in this matter! He shouldn't have been so greedy for wine, and he shouldn't have forgotten to send away those three concubines after getting engaged..."
Mr. Shen and the wife of Marquis Dingguo at the top said nothing and stared coldly at the three people below.
The three members of the Gu family were tense.
Mei said anxiously, "We will send those three bitches away when we get back, and they will never get in Manman's way again."
Madam Shen snorted coldly: "Since you want to apologize, then show some sincerity. After the marriage, Gu Yang is not allowed to take concubines within fifteen years! You are not allowed to take a concubine!"
Gu Yang's face changed. Not allowed to have a concubine?
Isn't this going to cost him his life?
Father Gu and Mrs. Mei were delighted. Mrs. Mei smiled and agreed: "Don't worry, I'll do whatever the old lady says. Not to mention fifteen years, even twenty years is fine."
Madam Shen's expression eased a little and she nodded: "Okay, let's all go back!"
Mei was delighted: "Okay. Thank you, old lady, for your kindness. My Yang'er will definitely treat Manman well in the future. If he makes a mistake again, we will not let him go."
Old Madam Shen had a look of satisfaction on her face.
After the three members of the Gu family said goodbye, they turned around and left.
It was not until their backs disappeared at the door that Marquis Dingguo snorted coldly, "It's a good deal for them."
Madam Shen gave him a cautious look: "I was covered in dirt by you, and I was whipped by you, and then I was slapped ten times by you, what else do you want?"
Dingguo Hou said: "I want to kick them into the pigsty for seven days and seven nights."
Madam Shen chuckled and sighed, "What a pity, not only can we not kick them, but we have to pretend to let them go for Manman's sake. Otherwise, they will be suspicious and nervous all day long, and our plan will be difficult to implement."
We have to let them let down their guard, otherwise joy will turn into sorrow.
......
In the Gu family's carriage——
"Who the hell is she? A jealous woman! A jealous woman! She has prevented me from taking a concubine for fifteen years. How can there be such a jealous woman in the world? She is not afraid of being laughed at if I tell others about it!"
As soon as Gu Yang got on the carriage, he couldn't help cursing:
"Mother, you are such a fool. They said fifteen years, but mother not only agreed, but also said twenty years. Isn't this cheating me?"
"You!" Mei poked his head. "They put forward the conditions to prove that they forgive you. If they didn't, you would be in trouble."
"And what difference does it make whether she says it's ten years or twenty years?"
"After you get married, you should be patient for two or three years, and then you can keep a few children outside. It would be best if she finds out immediately. If she makes a fuss, no matter what you promised before the marriage, when it really happens, it will be her fault."
"No matter what her family asks for now, the only way to deal with it in the future is to ask her to keep quiet and not make such an ugly scene."
"This is how the world works. It's natural for a man to take a concubine, and a woman who makes a fuss is just jealous! No matter what the premise is, you have to obey this principle!"
Gu Yang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Mom is really insightful."
Mei snorted and laughed: "You should chase away the three bitches outside first."
"Mother..." Gu Yang was reluctant to let go. Those three were his favorite concubines.
Mei rolled her eyes at him and said, "Don't you like Chun Tao who is by my side? I will give her to you later."
Gu Yang was delighted: "Thank you, mother."
"But you have to be more restrained. If you miss Chuntao in the future, just come to my yard to find her."
......
Ye Family——
Ye Caiping and Shen Zhiyan huddled together on the Luohan bed, half covered with a warm rabbit fur blanket.
Ye Caiping leaned half of her body in his arms, looking at the account book: "Gu Yang made such a mess today, why don't you go home and take a look?"
Shen Zhiyan raised his eyebrows: "Brother has done it all. You can't just go up and slap him, right? It's quite boring."
Ye Caiping turned around and glanced at him: "You are quite boring now."
Shen Zhiyan smiled: "I'm not bored. You look at the account book, and I look at you."
Ye Caiping's ears turned red: "You are such a pervert."
"You said last time that I'm not old yet."
"The three girls are still outside!"
Shen Zhiyan looked out the window and saw Shen Manman and Jin Er Huan Er making a snowman in the yard, giggling and looking very happy.
Shen Zhiyan was in a good mood. He closed the window, turned over, and threw Ye Caiping directly onto the couch.
The account book in Ye Caiping's hand fell to the carpet with a thud.
Ye Caiping: "What are you doing?"
"Hug you."
Ye Caiping felt sweet in her heart and hugged him back, "Oh, there is one more thing. On New Year's Eve, the Queen told me that she hoped you could stay in Beijing and be the Emperor's tutor."
Shen Zhiyan looked up at her: “She asks me once a year.”
Ye Caiping said: "Then just agree to it! The growth of the little emperor is related to our life and death."
Shen Zhiyan nodded: "Okay."
Ye Caiping looked into his clear eyes and chuckled, "Actually, you want to be one too, right?"
Shen Zhiyan coughed dryly: "I didn't want to do it in previous years, but this year... I have no choice. My eldest sister is the Queen Mother, my brother is a general and a minister, you are a third-rank lady, and even Manman has become a princess. I am the only one who is a poor champion. If I don't work hard, I will really become the most useless person in the family."
Ye Caiping chuckled and pecked him lightly on the lips: "Where is the most useless? You are the most useful."
Shen Zhiyan smiled, and then sighed softly: "Why hasn't the wedding date come yet?"
“Soon.”
"Yeah." Shen Zhiyan buried his head in the crook of her neck.
......
Three girls are making a snowman outside.
Ye Jin'er patted the snowman gently: "Wow, this is my first winter with snow. I can even make a snowman."
Ye Huaner: "When I was little, I always thought that snow was as big as eggs and fell from the sky. Now I know that it floats like feathers."
Shen Manman laughed and said, "Then let's stay in Beijing and live there. We can see snow every year in the future."
Ye Jin'er said: "I will listen to mother on this."
Ye Huaner put a carrot nose on the snowman: "By the way, why didn't Sister Man go home to see Gu Yang today?"
Shen Manman looked disgusted: "Hey, what's there to see? Look at their hypocritical faces? Anyway, when they were splashed with Ren Zhong Huang this morning, we saw it clearly."
"Look at those little people, it's more interesting than making a snowman!"
