"Why does it have nothing to do with you? The Xuanping Marquis's Mansion is in unrest. People will not only look down on your elder brother for not managing the household well, but will also look down on you, an unmarried girl." said Old Mrs. Tang.
"Mom, I'm going to Tai's house first." After saying this, Gu Huaizhi hurried away.
"Mom, in my opinion, we should let them stay in the Tai family more. Big brother is in such a hurry to pick them up. People who don't know would think that our Xuanping Marquis Mansion can't do without them." Gu Nianshu said with a bad idea.
"Let him go. Who knows whether he will be willing to come back or not." Old Mrs. Tang didn't take it to heart.
"Now that my eldest brother is gone, do they still want to take advantage of Qiao?" Gu Nianshu became even more dissatisfied when she thought of this.
General's Mansion
"General, we have checked carefully. The carriage today was indeed tampered with, but the person who did it was the coachman of Marquis Xuanping's mansion." Mingli replied from the side.
"Oh? Someone from the Marquis Xuanping's mansion? Where is the Marquis Xuanping working now?" Wei Xiuyuan tapped the table lightly, his face showing no joy.
Mingli was also a little confused. Didn’t his master go to the Sword Pavilion Master to get the sword?
Why did you start asking about the affairs of Marquis Xuanping's Mansion as soon as you came back?
...
...
Could it be that my master has fallen in love with a girl from the Marquis Xuanping's mansion?
Thinking of this, Mingli felt a little excited. You know, his master is already twenty-six years old, and the old lady in the mansion has been urging her master to get married.
Unfortunately, around my master, let alone women, even the mosquitoes are probably male.
The old lady even once suspected that her general had taken a fancy to them and called them in for questioning every day. Thinking of this, Mingli complained bitterly.
"Master, the Marquis Xuanping is now serving as a fourth-rank ceremonial officer in the Ministry of Clan Affairs." Mingli replied quickly.
"He married the daughter of the Minister of Personnel, but didn't the Minister of Personnel do anything for him?" Wei Xiuyuan frowned. A fourth-rank official? It's really not good enough.
"Master, you also know that the Minister of Personnel is not a partial person. It must be that the Marquis Xuanping is a bit mediocre, and Lord Tai is too lazy to make arrangements." Mingli thought about it and said pertinently.
I thought to myself, my master is really pitiful. His taste in choosing girls is not very good. Why did he choose one with such a mediocre family background?
"Minister Tai is actually willing to choose such a son-in-law for his daughter?" Wei Xiuyuan felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of this.
"It seems that this marriage was arranged by the old lady from the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion." Mingli scratched his head, not understanding why the old lady had arranged this marriage.
To be honest, with the family background of the Tai family, the eldest daughter of the Tai family could marry a son of a noble family, let alone a prince.
But she chose to marry a loser like Gu Huaizhi.
Thinking of this, Wei Xiuyuan felt a little uncomfortable.
I shouldn't have left so quickly at the beginning, otherwise, Tai Jingwan might have been someone's wife.
Thinking of this, Wei Xiuyuan looked at his hands again, imagining that today, when he and she were riding on the same horse, there seemed to be some of her warmth left on his hands.
If he treats her badly, can I snatch her away from her?
Suddenly Wei Xiuyuan had a bold idea.
But then he shook his head. She wouldn't agree, right?
"Master?" Mingli waved his hand in front of Wei Xiuyuan.
I was thinking to myself, I don’t know where that girl got such great magical power that she could actually take away the soul of her master.
It seems that he needs to find out more about it.
Otherwise, it would be bad if I offended my future mistress when I met her one day.
"Have you found out who instructed the groom?" Wei Xiuyuan quickly calmed down and asked.
"Master, I haven't had time to check yet." Mingli said embarrassedly.
How could he know that his master wanted such detailed information.
"I will send someone to investigate right away, and this matter will be investigated thoroughly and clearly." After Mingli said this, he quickly slipped away. You know, if he didn't slip away at this time and stayed, he might be punished.
"Tai Jingwan." Wei Xiuyuan murmured Tai Jingwan's name, as if she would appear in front of him if he called her like that.
No one knew that the cold-hearted general had someone hidden in his heart. It was just that at that time, he went to the southwestern border, and when he came back, she had married someone else.
Tai Family
When Gu Huaizhi came to Tai's house again with a lot of bags, the Tai family had just finished their meal.
"Why is my brother-in-law here?" Tai Yunche was stunned when he saw Gu Huaizhi.
Then he walked forward and asked with a smile.
"Brother, I...I'm here to pick up Jingwan." Gu Huaizhi didn't even have the courage to mention Jiang Jinyue at this moment.
In particular, he saw that except for the brother-in-law who was still studying at Yanshan Academy, the other four brothers-in-law were all here.
When Gu Huaizhi saw those people, he felt a little scared. He really couldn't beat them.
"Madam, how is Wan'er's injury?" Tai Yunche turned his head and looked at Qi Qin'er beside him and asked.
"Husband, my sister's injury needs to be healed for a few days." Qi Qin'er replied without thinking.
"Brother-in-law, you heard it too. It's not that we don't want to let my sister go back. It's just that my sister is injured too badly this time. She needs to recuperate for a few more days. You go back first." Tai Yunche said in a gentle tone.
"This...Brother, it's the same if Jingwan returns home to recuperate." Gu Huaizhi frowned and said. Every time he came to the Tai family, he felt suffocated.
"How can they be the same? Brother-in-law, didn't you see the injuries on Jingwan's body? It's not suitable for her to move. Besides, it's not as convenient for you to recuperate in the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion as in the Tai family?" Qi Qiner said without thinking.
"I guess my brother-in-law didn't have the time to see the injuries on my sister's body." Luo Yuanxuan said sadly.
"I saw it, I saw it." Gu Huaizhi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said quickly.
Gu Huaizhi thought to himself that Tai Jingwan looked like nothing had happened, but the Tai family just liked to make a fuss out of nothing.
"Brother-in-law still wants to take Wan'er back?" Tai Yunqing asked Gu Huaizhi with an unhappy look on his face.
"In that case, then let..." Gu Huaizhi was just about to say that Tai Jingwan should recuperate at Tai's house first.
"Brothers and sisters-in-law, I know you want me to stay in your house to recuperate, but my injuries are not serious, so it's okay for me to stay here to recuperate." Tai Jingwan quickly walked out and said.
"Why did you come out? You're injured so badly, why do you still have to be so stubborn? How can the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion not be able to survive without you?" Qi Qin'er said with a look of disappointment.
"Sister-in-law, I know you care about me, but I have my reasons for going back. I'll explain to you later, okay?" Tai Jingwan looked at Qi Qiner with a pleading look on her face.
If she had gone back then, otherwise, how would she know whether her dowry was really squandered by someone with ulterior motives?
"Madam, please let my younger sister go back today. If you are worried, you can go to the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion to visit my younger sister tomorrow." Tai Yunche glanced at Jiang Jinyue and guessed in his heart that his younger sister must not want Jiang to stay in the Tai family, so she said this on purpose.
