Chapter 111 Returning Home to Get Married
"Pei, stop talking nonsense." Gu Yuan frowned.
He really disliked Pei for her lack of judgment. He thought that Mu Junyan must be a good son-in-law, not to mention that the marriage was arranged by the emperor.
Pei came to him early this morning and said that Gu Huan should marry out of the Gu family, otherwise, people would gossip about her. He agreed with her and followed her.
Seeing that her husband looked unhappy, Aunt Pei did not dare to emphasize the matter of being kidnapped anymore and immediately changed the subject.
She bowed to Mu Junyan with an apologetic look on her face: "There is something I need to report to the Duke, otherwise, I will feel uneasy."
Gu Huan looked at her warily.
Mu Junyan: "Please speak."
"When Gu Huan was young, she had a childhood sweetheart named Ji Xuanyu. The boy was the son of a private school teacher, with handsome features and outstanding talent."
Gu Huan was shocked.
Mu Junyan's eyes dimmed: "Oh."
Handsome and talented?
Aunt Pei pulled Gu Huan with a distressed look on her face: "She should have married him. But unfortunately, the child died young and accidentally fell off a cliff and died."
Mu Junyan glanced at Gu Huan.
She had confessed this person to Zhou Zhilan, but she didn't expect that the Gu family also knew about this person.
It wasn't that Gu Huan herself was in love, but that her parents knew about it and approved of it.
Gu Huan didn't expect that Aunt Pei would have the audacity to mention Brother Ji!
It was obviously she who killed Brother Ji!
Gu Huan suppressed the hatred in her eyes and said softly, "Aunt, Brother Ji has been dead for many years."
Aunt Pei sighed and patted Gu Huan's hand: "I just feel sorry for you. If nothing happened to him, you could marry a young man of the same age as your legal wife."
That's right...
Mu Junyan's face darkened.
He looked at Gu Huan again.
She could have married an outstanding young man as his wife.
Gu Huan pulled back the hand that Aunt Pei was holding, raised her head and looked at Mu Junyan with deep affection.
"Now my daughter is loved by the Duke."
Mu Junyan: "..."
The expression returned to its previous fake look.
He doesn't like it.
Gu Yuan couldn't hold his face anymore and quickly interrupted: "Okay, let's talk when we get home. There are still many things to prepare."
Aunt Pei nodded quickly: "The Marquis is right. What happened yesterday has spread all over the capital, and I am worried about you. Tomorrow...isn't the wedding going to be held? Your mother and your father have come here specially to take you back."
Gu Huan looked at her deeply.
This is another attempt to force her to return home. I wonder what he has prepared for her.
Aunt Pei looked at Mu Junyan with a smile: "It is a blessing for Huan'er that the Duke of Guo likes her, but you can't let her get married in the Duke's Mansion, right? Those who know will say that the Duke of Guo loves her, while those who don't will think that Huan'er deliberately moved into the Duke's Mansion to do something shameful."
Gu Huan was about to speak...
Gu Yuan replied, "Huan'er, please stop making trouble, or you will bring shame to the Gu family."
Gu Huan laughed angrily.
turn out to be,
In the eyes of her biological father, her efforts to earn a living for herself were nonsense.
"Why, does Marquis Wenchang think it's shameful for me to marry Hua'er?"
Mu Junyan said something disrespectful and Gu Huan looked at him.
It’s really amazing.
Gu Yuan choked and laughed dryly: "Duke Yong has misunderstood."
He felt ashamed that his daughter and son were marrying a father and son, but he didn't dare to talk back.
Aunt Pei didn't dare to say it either.
So as not to affect Ruer.
From the time the incident happened until now, she had tried everything but could not get any news about Ruer. She was so anxious that she could not sleep all night. She had people keep an eye on the Duke's Mansion before dawn, and only when she saw Mu Junyan coming back with a woman did she rush to look for Gu Yuan.
She must find a way to bring the little bitch back today.
She also has to find a way to see Ruer.
"Where's your sister? Ask her to come back home and help you take care of the wedding."
Gu Yuan also said, "Madam also misses Ru'er, so let her accompany Huan'er to get married tomorrow."
Aunt Pei looked at Mu Junyan with a smile. She just didn't believe that her father-in-law would dare to detain his daughter-in-law.
Mu Junyan stroked the jade ring: "Okay."
Then he turned to Donghua and ordered: "Go and tell the young lady to come back with you."
He held Gu Huan's shoulder with one hand and said, "The thief has not yet been brought to justice. Let Dong Mo bring someone to accompany you back. Zhou Zhilan will accompany you and come back together tomorrow."
He said come back.
Gu Huan felt warm in her heart.
With Dong Mo and Zhou Zhilan, she has nothing to fear.
She nodded reassuringly.
What would happen if Gu Wanru returned home? She was just a tiger with its teeth pulled out.
Moreover, she also wanted her mother to see her get married.
After receiving the order, Zhou Zhilan and Dong Mo immediately ordered people to prepare the carriage and wait at the gate.
Moreover, there were three carriages following behind the carriage, with nine large mahogany boxes on them.
Gu Huan didn't know what it was.
The group of people escorted Gu Huan to the Wenchang Marquis Mansion in a grand manner.
As soon as they left, Mu Junyan called Zhou Chunyu and met the people he brought with him one by one.
…
Gu Wanru finally got her freedom. She didn't care about being in front of her father. As soon as she got on the carriage, she threw herself into Aunt Pei's arms and burst into tears, feeling aggrieved.
Gu Yuan frowned.
As a legitimate daughter, how can she be so close to a concubine? It is simply lowering her status.
However, Aunt Pei has always been the housekeeper, and she basically has the final say in the backyard of the Gu Mansion. Aunt Pei has always been good to Gu Wanru, so he didn't think much about it.
Gu Wanru cried and said that the person who was kidnapped was Gu Huan, but the Duke's Mansion announced to the public that it was her affair. They also said that she was confined by her father-in-law and had no one to serve her. They also said that Mu An was cold to her and that the Duke's Mansion wanted to divorce her...
Aunt Pei was so furious when she heard this.
"That's too much! How could they treat you like this!"
She knew very well that Gu Huan was no longer under her control at this moment, and would not cover up anything for Gu Wanru.
"Father, Auntie, what should I do? If I am divorced, the Gu family will lose face."
Gu Wanru's only hope is that her father will step in to suppress the Yongguo Mansion.
She was the daughter-in-law that the Duke of Yong personally sought for his son. The Gu family did not agree, and the Duke's Mansion did not dare to divorce her forcefully.
Aunt Pei's heart was broken. She hugged her and comforted her: "Good child, it's okay, it's okay. Let's go back to the mansion and discuss it in detail."
There are some things that Gu Yuan cannot know.
Gu Yuan looked grumpy.
The Marquis's family had indeed lost all face when the legitimate daughter was divorced.
"Don't worry, even though we are only a marquis, we won't let anyone bully us at will."
Gu Wanru threw herself into Aunt Pei's arms and cried, feeling much more relieved.
Aunt Pei quickly thought of a solution.
The little bitch Gu Huan had already torn her apart a long time ago. Even if she knew that it was the little bitch who was abducted, how could she make the people in the market believe the truth?
Why doesn’t the little bitch just die? These thieves are so useless!
Thief?
Aunt Pei came up with a plan.
Fortunately, Gu Huan and Gu Wanru both returned home today.
There is still time for everything.
Fortunately, she had spoken out against Gu Huan in front of Wang in advance, saying that Gu Huan had made it almost impossible for Gu Wanru to gain a foothold in the Duke's Mansion.
Let this real mother and daughter torture each other.
When Gu Huan returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Wang was already waiting at the door.
Gu Huan was overjoyed. She didn't expect that her mother would come to pick her up in person.
But when she stepped forward to greet her, Gu Wanru cried and threw herself into Wang's arms, "Mother, I almost couldn't see you anymore."
Wang's eyes were full of Gu Wanru. She hugged Gu Wanru, who was crying, and comforted her repeatedly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Your father and mother will take care of everything."
She looked at Gu Huan who was kneeling to salute, and the love and affection in her eyes was gone.
In front of the servants in the Duke's Mansion, Wang did not act too aggressively. She just glanced at Gu Huan indifferently.
"Everyone, go in."
Gu Huan slowly stood up and watched her mother and Gu Wanru walk into the house together. The mother and daughter leaned against each other and talked in low voices.
A chill came over her and Gu Huan felt a pain in her heart.
Gu Wanru was the one she raised in pampered condition, and now she was deceived by the person she held dear. Her mother would be sad if she knew the truth, right?
Aunt Pei glared at her fiercely and said coldly, "Why don't you get out of here?"
Gu Huan didn't say anything.
Donghua and Dongqing looked unhappy, but since the girl was going to get married away from her parents' home, they didn't want to offend her.
Zhou Zhilan walked forward and held her hand. The two looked at each other, each understanding the other's eyes that gave them reassurance.
The most important thing is that Gu Huan gets married safely tomorrow.
Dong Mo followed with a group of guards in a majestic manner. The servants in the marquis's mansion did not dare to offend them and greeted them respectfully.
