Filial piety is the most important virtue. The old lady didn't say a single dirty word, but her words were all about saying that Gu Xinglang was unfilial. This accusation was too severe. If Gu Xinglang could kneel at this moment, he would kneel down and apologize to the old lady.
This was the first time in his life that he was scolded by his grandmother like this. Gu Xinglang, who had always been a filial child, was at a loss as to what to do.
Gu Xingnuo frowned slightly and said, "Grandma, what's wrong with you today?"
The old lady glared at Gu Xinglang and said, "You have to live your life on your own. How long can your grandmother stay with you?"
Gu Xinglang hurriedly said: "Grandma, you will live a long life."
Gu Xingnuo said, "Grandma, is it someone in the mansion who made you angry?"
The old lady choked. She was very angry at the moment and was taking it out on Gu Xinglang.
Mrs. Xu saw that the old lady was speechless because her eldest son had hit the nail on the head. She then said, "The princess is talking to your grandfather in the study. You two should go to the study. I will take your grandmother for a walk somewhere else."
"Go ahead," the old lady waved her hand.
Gu Xingnuo didn't wait for Gu Xinglang to speak, and pushed his younger brother away.
After the two brothers left, Mrs. Xu helped the old lady walk to the back garden, whispering as she walked, "Mother, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, please calm down."
The old lady asked, "How many years can I live? Just bear it slowly. How long can you bear it?"
Madam Xu lowered her head to look at the road. The old lady had many complaints about Princess Linglong. In Madam Xu's view, it was undoubtedly the wedding night when Princess Linglong refused to let the old lady in. Coupled with the incident with Qingyu, the old lady lost all face in front of the people in the mansion. It would be strange if the old lady, who had a strong personality, did not feel resentful.
After the old lady walked a few steps, she sighed and said, "Forget it, I was overthinking it. Anyway, Xingnuo will take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life. Sun is a good person and a good daughter-in-law. What else can I ask for?"
Madam Xu whispered, "Mother, the princess is kind-hearted, and there is nothing to worry about for your daughter-in-law."
The old lady snorted coldly. When she saw Princess Linglong hitting someone, she didn't see that the princess was kind-hearted. Beating the enemy is good, but what if one day, the princess is not satisfied with the Gu family, and the one being beaten is a member of the Gu family? "Xinglang's leg, I am so worried about it!" The old lady thought about it and sighed, "The doctor said that Xinglang needs to rest, but look at him now, he follows the princess out every day, what is he resting for?"
Madam Xu said, "The princess said Xinglang's foot will get better."
"Will it be okay?" The old lady said coldly, "Wait until the day when Xinglang can leave, then tell me this."
Madam Xu smiled bitterly and said, "Mother, the princess will not harm Xinglang. In the past, Xinglang was in the army with his father and brother, and he never really went out to play. I see that Xinglang is happy with the princess, and I am very grateful to the princess."
The old lady glanced at Xu. All the good things had been said by this daughter-in-law, so what else could she say?
"Mother," Madam Xu whispered to the old lady, "That was the princess. Even if she killed Qingyu, what can you do?"
The old lady was even more speechless. Yes, she was a royal princess. No matter how much you disliked her, what could you do to her? Not to mention that Gu Xinglang liked this princess, even if Gu Xinglang didn't like her, would the Gu family dare to divorce the princess?
After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law walked away while talking in low voices, Nanny Wang led Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei out from behind the bushes. "Bah!" Nanny Wang spat on the ground and said, "She is the only one who dislikes our princess!"
Xiao Zhuang said, "Mammy, what's wrong with the princess?"
Nanny Wang said, "She is getting old and confused. What's wrong with our princess?"
"That's right," Xiao Zhuang said, "Without our princess, can she still live back?"
Yu Ziyi was fine, but Yu Ziming was unlucky. Nanny Wang felt very happy at first, but when she stood behind the bushes and heard the old lady say that her princess was not good, Nanny Wang's happiness disappeared immediately. She wanted to rush to the old lady and have a good argument with her. Who took advantage of this marriage and who suffered a loss? Why did she dislike her princess?
Xiao Zhuang stood by and listened to Nanny Wang and Xiao Zhuang complaining, then smiled and said nonchalantly: "Nanny, brother, why do you care what the old lady thinks? Isn't it enough that the prince consort likes the princess? No matter what the emperor does, can he watch the princess being bullied by an old lady like her?"
Nanny Wang said angrily, "Qingyu is gone, maybe Lanyu will come tomorrow, and Baiyu will come later! Who knows what this old lady is planning?"
Hearing Nanny Wang mention Qingyu, and thinking of what happened to Qingyu after she confronted her own princess that night, Xiaozhuang and Xiaowei fell silent, as if no matter what happened to Qingyu, there would be no good ending. The princess was not good at conspiring, but their princess could demolish a building with a slap, which woman could withstand it?
In the study, in front of his two grandsons, the old man did not take Yu Xiaoxiao with him to greet Zhao Qiu Ming's ancestors. He asked about what happened to Gu Xinglang after he entered the palace. Then he kept Gu Xingnuo to talk and asked Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang to go back to their rooms to rest.
Yu Xiaoxiao didn't ask anyone to serve her, and pushed Gu Xinglang towards the courtyard where they lived.
Gu Xinglang watched the maids and servants following the couple retreat, and asked Yu Xiaoxiao in a low voice: "Did grandma and mother come here just now?"
"I came here," Yu Xiao said, "but I didn't go into the house. I stood at the door for a while and then left."
Gu Xinglang asked, "Were you talking to your grandfather at that time?"
"Yes," Yu Xiao: "I was discussing something with my grandfather at that time." How to dig up the Zhao family's ancestral tomb? This is a matter that should be taken seriously.
Gu Xinglang couldn't understand it at all. No one had offended his grandmother.
"The flowers are blooming," Yu Xiaoxiao stopped in front of a flower stand and let Gu Xinglang look at the flowers in the stand.
In the flower bed, a few clusters of autumn chrysanthemums are in full bloom. The flowers are tender yellow and have not been trimmed. The chrysanthemum leaves are a little messy, but they have grown naturally and have a naturally grown flavor.
Gu Xinglang asked: "The princess likes chrysanthemums?"
"I like all kinds of flowers," Yu Xiao, then after thinking about it, added: "Only flowers." Yu Xiaoxiao doesn't like any flowers that are beyond the scope of natural plants.
What does "only limited to flowers" mean? Young Master Gu didn't understand, and was about to ask again when Gu Xingnuo's two sons ran over along the corridor, shouting as they ran: "Uncle San, Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Seeing his two little nephews, Gu Xinglang smiled a little more and said loudly, "Run slower."
Yu Xiaoxiao waited until the two little meat balls were almost there, then she took a step forward, picked up one in each hand, and said, "Why do you call him Third Uncle and me Princess Royal?"
Gu Xun tilted his head to look at Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "Because you are Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Gu Jin was four years old, but he couldn't control his saliva. He slurped his saliva and asked Yu Xiaoxiao, "Then what should we call you?"
