Chapter 109 Sister, Here I Come
When Mu Junyan heard Zhou Chunyu say that Gu Huan said yes, there was no expression on his face, and he rubbed the glaze of the teacup with his fingers a little harder.
After a breath, he put down the cup.
"Let's stick to the original plan for tomorrow. The guest list will be distributed as you decide. All the masters of the Gu family must be invited. And the Wang Clan of Langya has also sent an invitation. Don't force yourself. Come if you want. If you don't want to come, we'll talk about it later."
"yes."
Zhou Chunyu was a little surprised. Why should he send an invitation to Wang Clan of Langya?
"After the wedding, let the Gu family stay and prepare everything that needs to be prepared. It's time to return some things to the little girl."
Zhou Chunyu was even more surprised when he heard this, but he immediately understood that this was about seeking justice for Gu Huan.
When Gu Huan woke up, the room was full of various boxes. Donghua, Dongqing and two other new maids were counting things.
She sat up with a confused look on her face, but before she could ask, Donghua and the others saw that she had woken up.
"The girl is awake. Get up, wash up and have lunch, then we'll try on the new dress and jewelry."
Donghua excitedly helped her out of bed.
Gu Huan's eyes widened: "So many?"
"That's not much. Because we were so pressed for time, we only had time to make two dresses and five winter suits. We're still working on spring, summer and autumn suits."
Gu Hua smacked her lips.
Her room was filled with boxes.
Is this... a public ceremony of taking a concubine?
But no one has told her the specific details of etiquette yet, and she doesn't dare to think too much about it. What if she is being too sentimental?
Gu Huan was still thinking about meeting the old lady, so she shook her head and said, "Let's go see the old lady after we have something to eat. I wonder if she knows that I was kidnapped. Don't let her worry."
Donghua nodded: "Okay. The old lady is worried about the girl."
Gu Huan quickly finished her lunch, checked her makeup, and went to Xiangrui Hall.
When the old lady heard that Gu Huan was coming, she smiled and held out her hand: "Good boy, come here quickly."
Gu Huan looked at the old lady's clear and capable eyes in astonishment.
Yi Niang smiled: "The old lady's dementia has been cured."
Gu Huan was overjoyed, and quickly stepped forward, kneeling before the old lady: "Gu Huan greets the old lady."
The old lady pulled her up with great force.
"Don't salute."
He looked her up and down, turned her wrapped hands over and looked at them, "Good child, you've suffered a lot, sit down quickly."
Gu Huan's eyes reddened.
Unexpectedly, after being abducted as a woman, she received not oppression or rejection, but more care.
They are a family better than family.
Gu Huan obediently sat down next to the old lady, her eyes full of admiration.
"You're getting married tomorrow, don't be nervous. Although Yan'er looks a little rough, he has a good heart. If he dares to bully you, you can go to me, the old lady, to complain and I will beat him up."
Only then did Gu Huan realize that he would really marry her tomorrow.
Gu Huan was deeply moved by the old lady's protection, but she wanted to laugh but didn't dare to.
She couldn't help but lean her head on the old lady's shoulder and said softly, "Don't be afraid, Huan'er, I have the old lady to protect me."
The old lady's heart softened and she laughed happily: "Yes, yes, don't be afraid of him."
Although she was a concubine, she could feel the entire Duke's Mansion and felt somewhat at ease.
The only regret is that I couldn't recognize my mother before I became a concubine.
I wonder if my mother will dislike her status as a concubine.
Gu Huan came out of Xiangrui Hall with mixed feelings and looked towards the direction of Jinxiu Pavilion.
It's time for her to meet her good sister.
Gu Huan returned to the house, chose a new gorgeous skirt, dressed up carefully, and went to Jinxiu Pavilion with Donghua Dongqing.
I didn't expect to meet Mu Junyan on the road.
She paused and looked up at him.
After spending last night together in the hot spring villa, she felt that there was something different between them.
She had seduced him just for the sake of seducing him, and she despised her own behavior in her heart, but she had no feelings for him.
But now, her little heart was pounding and her face was burning.
Mu Junyan glanced at her and asked calmly, "Going to Jinxiu Pavilion?"
"Um."
"Let's go together."
Gu Huan was stunned, looking at the tall figure walking in front of her.
He went to Jinxiu Pavilion with her?
"Follow me."
The man didn't look back.
Gu Huan came back to her senses, quickly lifted her skirt and quickened her pace to jog.
Unexpectedly, the man stopped and looked back at her, as if he was waiting for her.
Gu Huan quickly put down her skirt and approached in small steps.
Mu Junyan waited until she was half a step away from him before he started walking again, and kept that distance.
Gu Huan felt warm in her heart. He was actually adjusting to his pace.
Gu Wanru did not sleep all night, and like a trapped beast, she wanted to smash everything in the house to vent her anger.
But after she was exhausted, she found that no one paid attention to her.
She had smashed a lot of things recently. In the past, whenever she smashed something, the mansion would buy her new things, but now...
Gu Wanru sat on the edge of the bed, feeling like she wanted to cry but without the tears, looking at the empty room. The vase was gone and there was only one flying goose lamp left, which she didn't dare to smash.
She tore off a piece of the bed curtain and tore it to pieces, leaving only one side.
She just couldn't understand why she tried so hard to be a good lady in the Duke's Mansion, but kept making more and more mistakes?
After Jin Kui died, other dowry was not allowed to be brought in, and the Duke's Mansion did not send a new maid to serve her personally, but only sent one person to deliver meals on time.
There was no shortage of food, but the feeling of being imprisoned and hopeless was too uncomfortable.
Gu Huan and Mu Junyan were about to reach the entrance of Jinxiu Pavilion when Gu Huan suddenly quickened her pace and reached out to pull his sleeve.
Mu Junyan stopped and looked down at her wrapped hand, revealing five scallion-like fingers that curled up nervously.
"What's wrong?"
"I... I feel a little weak in the knees." Gu Huan whispered in a low voice, glanced at him quickly, and then quickly dropped her eyes.
Mu Junyan curled the corner of his mouth, he really has the mentality of a child.
I want to do this for Gu Wanru to see.
Now that things have come to this, it doesn’t hurt to pamper her a little.
Mu Junyan took her hand and put it on his arm: "Can you help me walk?"
Gu Huan's ears blushed and she began to blame herself for taking advantage of Mu Junyan.
She hummed softly, wrapped her arms around his arms, and smiled shyly with her head raised.
Little girl.
A lot of little thoughts.
Mu Junyan couldn't help but curl his lips.
When Gu Wanru heard the sound of the courtyard door, she rushed to the bed and saw her father-in-law, who was always upright and reserved, walking in with the little bitch.
The little bitch actually came back alive!
What if Gu Huan found out that I had lied to her and pushed her to be the scapegoat?
At this point, Gu Huan is no longer under her control, and she will definitely not cover up for her.
Her father-in-law actually locked up his daughter-in-law for her, and the entire Duke's Mansion listens to this little bitch.
So is there any chance for her to survive?
Gu Wanru's mind was in a mess, and she clenched the handkerchief tightly in her hands, wishing she could tear it apart.
But she couldn't lose again in front of Mu Junyan.
She could only step forward and bow aggrievedly: "Daughter-in-law greets father-in-law."
Gu Huan's hand was still hooked on Mu Junyan's arm. She only nodded slightly to her: "Sister, I'm so thankful that you're safe and sound. I'm relieved."
Gu Wanru’s face froze.
The little bitch's smile was gentle and harmless, but her body language and words were clearly provocative.
Gu Wanru tried her best to control her emotions and secretly told herself not to get angry.
She continued with a slight smile: "Sister was also very worried about me. I didn't sleep last night. I just regretted that I couldn't protect you. Now you're back. I'm glad."
Gu Huan smiled gently.
Does Gu Wanru know that people outside think it was her who was kidnapped?
If a noble lady is kidnapped, even if her family tolerates it, she will still be criticized and her innocence will be damaged.
I don’t know. Even if she knew, would she still be able to stand in front of me calmly?
"Sit down and talk."
Mu Junyan, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
Gu Huan looked at him shyly, and her tone suddenly became soft and a little coquettish: "Thank you, Master."
Gu Wanru widened her eyes.
Her father-in-law didn't even care about her face and actually let her half-sister sit and talk in front of her!
Gu Huan sat down, her hand still clasped in Mu Junyan's big palm, and looked up at Gu Wanru, whose face was about to collapse.
She apologized, "Please forgive my disrespect. I almost lost my life last night, and the Duke tried his best to save me. I was injured accidentally."
Just a few simple words, spoken gently, were enough to stir up a storm.
As she spoke, her body unconsciously leaned towards Mu Junyan.
Gu Wanru's facial expression was about to break.
