Time flies by.
After seeing Xiaoqiao off, everyone's eyes were red and swollen.
Before she could even wash up, she was greeted by a rare guest.
It's Jiang Changting who has arrived.
When I met Madam Gu at Prime Minister Gu's residence, it was on the very day that Prince Ming died.
When the news of the death arrived at the Gu residence, she was left in a state of panic.
Prime Minister Gu lost his patience because Madam Gu attempted to kill his grandson.
If the marriage hadn't been proposed by Consort Rou in the palace, why would he have wronged Ayu's birth mother?
Now it's all good, we don't even need to worry about saving face.
Sending the head steward along is already the greatest courtesy the Gu family can show.
After several days of mourning.
The Ming king has been laid to rest.
Some people die, some people get married; the world is inherently diverse.
The courtyard was covered with "double happiness" characters. Jiang Changting, who had just entered, said with some annoyance, "Am I too late? I didn't even give the newlyweds a red envelope."
She looked a little tired, but her spirits were still pretty good.
She had lost some weight, but her eyes were already very bright.
She took Wei Wei's hand and said, "Do you know what I've been doing these past few days?"
"Besides handling my father's funeral arrangements, I also sent someone to Loucheng to investigate your identity!"
Wei Wei raised an eyebrow at her in surprise, wondering why she was being so bored. If she wanted to know, wouldn't it be faster to just ask her?
Seeing the shock on her face, Jiang Changting was very pleased: "How about that? Surprised you, huh?"
Her eyes darted around, revealing a cunning she had never seen before.
"There are too many Wei families in Loucheng, I couldn't find any!"
"That's strange, so I had someone secretly check the household registration books in the government office!"
"There isn't a single person named Wei Wei among them. There's only Madam Meng, who died of illness on her way to the capital to find her husband!"
"That's a clever tactic."
She clicked her tongue: "It seems my cousin really went to great lengths."
Upon hearing this, Wei Wei finally smiled.
Jiang Yu kept his word, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.
Jiang Changting looked at her: "I've also heard about some of the grudges in Loucheng. Were those thieves from the Meng family wiped out?"
Once this person had avenged their grudge, all that remained in their heart was a gossipy nature.
Wei Wei didn't intend to hide anything from her: "Bad people will be punished by Heaven. Their deaths are the will of Heaven."
Jiang Changting beamed with delight: "I like people like that. They take revenge when they have a grudge, and they don't care about so many social niceties."
She laughed and said, "It's no wonder we should become a family."
At this point, her voice lowered: "But after you go to the Gu residence, you must be careful of my half-sister."
"Having followed the princess for several years, she's quite a ruthless woman."
Wei Wei smiled nonchalantly: "I wasn't competing for favor in the past. As long as she's smart enough, she won't make her situation worse."
At this point, she glanced at Jiang Changting again: "If you want her to suffer, I can help you."
They seem to have a very thorough understanding of the situation.
Jiang Changting suddenly understood why Jiang Yu liked a woman with such a poor reputation.
Anyone who pays attention will probably come to like her.
She laughed: "She's just a stray dog with no way out. It wouldn't hurt to let her live a few more days."
"Of course, as long as she keeps her neck hunched and continues to live her life."
If they continue to cause trouble, then we can't blame everyone for being ruthless.
Wei Wei knew what she hadn't finished saying, and smiled without saying a word.
As darkness fell, Jiang Changting smiled and took his leave.
Before leaving, she said, "In a few days, I will send someone to invite you over to talk."
The next morning, the Gu family announced that Prime Minister Gu would be recognizing a goddaughter that day.
They were talking about an adopted daughter, but everyone knows she was definitely a daughter they raised outside the family.
Everyone was in high spirits, and even those who had nothing to do went to offer their congratulations, though in reality they were just scouting the place.
Prime Minister Gu was always strict with himself and had never had any romantic affairs.
However, his son was the complete opposite of him, leading many to believe that Prime Minister Gu's illustrious reputation was about to be ruined by his son.
Now that a daughter has been born, the rumors and gossip have only intensified.
Prime Minister Gu was quite nonchalant: "My reputation has been almost ruined by that rebellious son, why would I care about such a small thing?"
The entire Gu family was filled with joy and was completely unaffected.
Wei Wei was picked up and taken to the Gu residence early in the morning.
The courtyard left for her was in a very good location and was large enough.
It was also staffed with maids and servants.
Xiao Yue'er helped her change her clothes, and they were ready to receive guests later.
Of course, he met with the wives and daughters of various officials, who were hoping to marry Prime Minister Gu.
Sure enough, it didn't take long before a maid came to invite Wei Wei to the reception room.
The Prime Minister's wife was already waiting there. Upon seeing her, she immediately smiled and stepped forward to take her hand.
Madam Gu was a kind woman. Although she was in her forties, she did not look old because she took good care of herself. At this moment, there was a smile in her eyes, which eased Wei Wei's tension a little.
"They are all wives of your father's colleagues, and more of them are subordinates."
Madam Gu spoke in a low voice: "Don't be too reserved, no one will make things difficult for you."
Wei Wei originally thought that the Prime Minister's wife would be serious and unsmiling, but she did not expect her to be so open-minded.
She couldn't help but smile and nodded in agreement.
