Wei Houyuan did not refuse this time.
"Huh? That's not right?" Zhou Zhongan looked at Wei Xiuyuan, feeling very puzzled. If it were in the past, Wei Xiuyuan would definitely refuse, but this time, Wei Xiuyuan did not refuse?
"Are you going or not?" Wei Xiuyuan asked impatiently, looking at Zhou Zhongan who was standing at the door in a daze.
"Go! I must go." Zhou Zhongan didn't care about anything else as he was thinking about getting the jade pendant back.
In Gu Mingzhi's Linfeng Courtyard.
Gu Mingzhi lay on the bed, screaming in pain.
Old Mrs. Tang was wiping away tears in pain, while Gu Huaizhi had a gloomy face.
If it weren't for Tai Jingwan and Jiang Jinyue being beside him, Gu Huaizhi would definitely have a good talk with Gu Mingzhi.
After a while, Zhongshun led the doctor in.
The doctor first bowed to the few people.
...
...
"Hurry up and show it to him." Gu Huaizhi said impatiently.
The doctor didn't dare to ask more questions after hearing this, and went straight forward to check Gu Mingzhi's injuries.
Tai Family
"Miss, the master asked you to go back home." Cui'er said carefully to Luo Yuanxuan.
"Just say I'm sick and I'm not going back." Luo Yuanxuan didn't want to go back and suffer that at all.
The reason why her father wanted her to go back was just to ask her to support Luo Xinyue.
But he didn't even think about it, what support would Luo Xinyue get if she became someone's concubine?
Moreover, she married her sister-in-law's husband, so she would be stupid to go back.
"But, Miss, tomorrow is Miss Xinyue's wedding day. If you don't go back, the master will be unhappy." Cui'er said in a low voice.
"I won't go back. Isn't it just to be someone's concubine? You tell my father to keep a low profile. Otherwise, if those censors impeach him, our Tai family won't be able to save him." After Luo Yuanxuan said this, she ordered Cui'er to expel her.
Cui'er was just a servant. Although she didn't understand why the eldest lady didn't want to go back, since the eldest lady didn't want to go back, Cui'er could only go back in disappointment.
"If you don't go back, your father will have a hard time explaining it." After Cui'er left, Lou came out and said.
"Mother-in-law, I am sorry to my younger sister." Luo Yuanxuan didn't expect that her mother-in-law was here, so she quickly stood up and bowed.
"It's not your fault." Lou sighed inwardly and was also very worried about Tai Jingwan.
Thinking of the disunited Gu family, Lou felt angry.
However, thinking about what Tai Hesong said about him having a plan, Lou just hoped that the Gu family would be punished as soon as possible.
Xuanping Marquis Mansion
After sending the doctor away, Tai Jingwan and Jiang Jinyue returned to their own yard. After all, Gu Mingzhi was a man after all.
It is not advisable for them to stay in Linfengyuan all the time.
"How did you get that painting?" At this time, only Gu Huaizhi, Old Tang and Gu Mingzhi were left in Gu Mingzhi's room.
Gu Huaizhi looked at Gu Mingzhi with a dark face and asked.
"Brother, I don't know what you are talking about." Gu Mingzhi said hesitantly.
"Mom, tell me, why was he able to get the painting that was part of Tai Jingwan's dowry?" Gu Huaizhi was still a little angry at this time.
After all, Shuntian Prefecture has sentenced them to pay ten thousand taels of gold to that scoundrel Niu San.
Thinking about the hundred taels of silver, the accountant would ask him for it, so how could he come up with ten thousand taels of gold?
But if he doesn't give the silver, Lord Chang in Shuntian Prefecture will definitely not let him go easily?
The best way is to let Gu Mingzhi use the money from selling paintings to fill this gap.
"Mingzhi?" The old lady looked at her son with some confusion.
"Okay, no matter how you got it, just take out the money you got from selling the paintings." Gu Huaizhi urged.
"No...no more." Gu Mingzhi thought that Gu Huaizhi was talking about the ones he had sold before, and never thought it was the "Heavenly King Delivering a Child" this time.
"Gone? Where did the money go?" Gu Huaizhi was very angry when he heard this.
Ten thousand taels of gold, just gone like that?
"Lose...Lose." Gu Mingzhi said in a low voice.
"Lost? Gu Mingzhi, on what basis did you take those things out to sell and lost them all?" Gu Huaizhi was very angry when he heard this.
"Okay, you've already lost, what else can you do? If you have the ability, go find those people and get it back." Old Mrs. Tang was very unhappy seeing that her youngest son had already become like this and her eldest son kept blaming him.
How can I blame my son for this?
"Mom, you just indulge him! You should know that those things he took out were the dowry that the Tai family gave to Tai Jingwan. What do you think the Tai family would do if they knew about this in a place as big as the capital?" Gu Huaizhi felt angry when he saw that Old Mrs. Tang only knew how to protect Gu Mingzhi.
"Isn't Tai your wife? You can go back and comfort her. As long as the Tai family doesn't pursue the matter, what happened to her son won't be a big deal." Old Mrs. Tang said indifferently.
"Mother, just indulge him. Don't you think about what you will give to the governor of Shuntian Prefecture when he comes to ask for money?" Gu Huaizhi raised another question.
"Tomorrow, you'd better take out the silver." Old Mrs. Tang thought that she couldn't take out the ten thousand taels of gold.
Thinking about how much money there was, it was impossible for his son to lose it all.
There must be some left.
"Mom, it's really all gone. We lost." Gu Mingzhi said with embarrassment.
"Boss, go ask your wives for the money. Your two wives are richer than the other. They can afford this little bit of money." Seeing that her son was unwilling to give the money, Mrs. Tang instigated Gu Huaizhi to ask Tai Jingwan and Jiang Jinyue for the money.
"That's right, brother. Your sister-in-law is so rich, what's wrong with asking them to give some money?" Gu Mingzhi also quickly agreed.
Gu Huaizhi frowned, but felt that he could not refute what his mother and brother said.
Thinking about how he had originally planned to consummate his marriage with Jiang Jinyue last time, he ended up sleeping with Luo Xinyue for some unknown reason.
He also thought that Tai Jingwan was willing to take her dowry in order to save his brother.
Gu Huaizhi thought that he should give Tai Jingwan some respect.
As soon as Tai Jingwan returned to Yingxue Pavilion, she saw two men sitting in the yard.
Tai Jingwan walked out again, wondering if she had taken the wrong path.
However, she had never heard when there would be guests in the mansion.
"Sister, where are you going?" Jiang Jinyue, who followed in from behind, asked in confusion.
Tai Jingwan shook her head, not knowing how to tell Jiang Jinyue that there were two men in her yard.
[What happened to Sister Tai? 】
Jiang Jinyue looked at Tai Jingwan and felt very strange.
"No...it's okay." Tai Jingwan bit her lips lightly, feeling a little weird in her heart.
"Miss." Amber also hurried out of the yard, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"Forget it." Tai Jingwan took a long breath. She wanted to see who those two people in the yard were.
In broad daylight, he actually dared to break into the women's yard. He is simply a pervert!
