Chapter 388 389. Training nephew
Jin Qianqian doesn't care about all this. She really has no interest in matchmaking.
If the couple are living a good life, no one will remember anything good about the matchmaker. But as long as the couple has a little quarrel, the people who get scolded are mostly the matchmakers.
What's more, this is bound to be something that will be blamed. How stupid must Jin Qianqian be to take on this task, and now she throws it to her uncle. I believe that with Gu Yuanshui's intelligence, he should be able to convince this kid.
Gu Yuanshui was just tired from walking around and wanted to rest for half a day in the mansion, but he didn't expect to be complained to by his nephew for most of the day.
"There are so many women in the world, why do you have to find an orphan girl who is in mourning?" Gu Yuanshui looked at him with a knowing expression, "In fact, you are still interested in the interests behind her."
After being questioned by several family members in a row, Gu Lehuan was full of bitterness. It was estimated that anyone who discussed marriage with Xu Dongjia now would be considered in this way.
"Fourth Uncle, you will all misunderstand whatever I say now, but I dare to touch my conscience. Even if Mr. Xu is alone, I will still come to ask for marriage."
"Then why don't you just go directly? Why are you whispering so much to us?" Gu Yuanshui was playing with the cup in his hand. The seventh brother's wife was really generous. Even the cups used to entertain guests were so exquisite.
Gu Lehuan, "I wanted Aunt Seven to help me make the trip, but she refused."
Gu Yuanshui put down the cup in his hand and knocked it on his head, "You are really promising. Ever since your seventh uncle named him the top scholar, none of us brothers dared to use his name. You, a boy who hasn't even grown all his hair yet, have broken the precedent in our family.
What's the matter? You want to use your power to force an orphan girl to marry you.
You are lucky, you got both the money and the people, so your seventh uncle and the others deserve to bear the blame for you?"
Gu Lehuan's face immediately turned pale, "Why is it so serious? I really didn't mean that."
"Hehe," Gu Yuanshui sat back in his seat, "Although your family has been wandering outside for such a long time, don't forget that your good life today is inseparable from your seventh uncle.
Even we brothers remember your uncle's kindness. You should remember this. If you want our entire family to live well in the future, then no one should hold your uncle back. Otherwise, not only us brothers, but also the entire family will not tolerate you."
Gu Lehuan was completely terrified. He just wanted to find someone for help, so how could things become so serious?
Gu Yuanshui observed Gu Lehuan quietly until he saw a look of shame on his face. He felt a little relieved, at least he was not hopeless.
“It’s normal for young people to be in love with each other. My fourth uncle also went through this before.
Back then, we didn’t have the conditions you have now, and we had to rely on our own planning to get here.
Even your mother, who was so looked down upon by your grandmother at the time, your father still made up his mind and tried every means to marry her.
In fact, our family is full of rebelliousness. Everyone has their own opinions. My wife basically asked for it herself."
Speaking of this, Gu Yuanshui was completely lost in memories. I guess his parents’ mentality at that time was similar to his own right now?
"Fourth Uncle, what should I do now?" Gu Lehuan asked cautiously.
Gu Yuanshui was interrupted and waved his hand impatiently, "Do whatever you want. The blisters on the soles of your feet are caused by walking. Who can decide for you?
Just remember, don't treat your seventh uncle as a fool outside. Even if you marry a beggar woman, your uncles will come to you to give you gifts."
Gu Lehuan: "..."
How could Jin Qianqian possibly hide everything that happened in this mansion? In a moment, Jin Qianqian knew everything that happened here.
I sighed silently. In fact, most people still have brains. They used to keep a close eye on things and calculate things, but that was because they were poor.

Gu Wenheng looked at Ning Yuchen, who was no different from usual, and couldn't help but sigh that this man had a really good psychological quality and was thick-skinned enough.
The concubines in the mansion had been locked up in the jail for several days, but he could still chat and laugh with everyone as if nothing had happened.
Perhaps noticing that Gu Wenheng glanced at him a few times, Ning Yuchen quietly clenched his right hand. He knew that everyone was laughing at him.
But now that things have come to this, he can only hold on. If he can't even deal with this little setback, he should just resign and hide at home.
When Ning Yuchen thought about the things that had happened at home in the past few days, the smile on his face became even more exaggerated.

"Ms. Xiao, you still haven't pleaded guilty yet. Your maid has confessed everything." Shuntian Prefecture Governor Gao Ning once again interrogated Xiao Wanyu.
During this period, the Ministry of Justice wanted to interrogate the prisoners several times, but he resisted the pressure and resisted them all.
No one knows the relationship between the Xiao family and the Huang family better than him. He is afraid that the other party will die without any evidence, so as to protect the reputation of the Huang family's wives.
"I am really innocent. My husband really died of an acute illness, and I was not even in the house when my mother-in-law ran into the room and died." It was the same words, and the tone was still firm.
…
After more than half an hour of trial, Gao Ning was considering whether to use torture when a bailiff ran in, "Sir, someone outside claims to want to sue this Xiao family."
Gao Ning's eyes lit up, and he looked at Xiao Wanyu who was still calm, then lowered his face and said, "Pass it on."
"Sir, please save me. I have been poisoned by this vicious woman and I may not live long." With the help of her maid, Old Lady Ning groped her way to the lobby.
"Who are you? Who are you suing?"
"My son was innocent and was framed by this vicious woman. I took her in as a concubine. I didn't expect that she was so vicious that she not only harmed her ex-husband and ex-mother-in-law, but also poisoned me, an old woman."
Gao Ning immediately knew who this person was. Considering that her son was an official, he asked someone to bring a stool and asked her to sit down and talk.
"Xiao, is what Madam Ning said true?"
Before Xiao Wanyu could even open her mouth to speak, Old Lady Ning stood up and exclaimed, "That bitch is here too, hurry up and get me the antidote, or I'll make my son write a letter to release me."
"...Silence!" Gao Ning slammed the table, "Xiao, you go ahead and speak."
Xiao Wanyu gritted her teeth and said, "I don't know what the old lady is talking about. I'm just an ordinary official's daughter. How can I be poisonous?
My Lord, I am innocent."
"You didn't poison me, so why do I feel unwell all over? And the doctors in the city can't find the cause." Old Mrs. Ning was also cunning and she changed the doctor's words.
"What does this have to do with me? How long have I been here? I can't even touch the kitchen door, how can I poison you?
Besides, I don’t know how to use poison, I was just wrongly accused.”
Seeing how confident Xiao was, Gao Ning also felt that this rumor was full of doubts. After all, he had asked the coroner to examine Lord Niu's body, and there was indeed no sign of poisoning.
