Gu Yunru took out the letter. It was a jade hairpin on Rongyue's head. It was given to her by Wanying herself. It was her daughter's personal ornament. As a mother, it was impossible for her not to recognize it.
"It's really Yue'er, this is really my grandson!" Wanying stood up in disbelief, all this was so ridiculous.
"Where's Yue'er?" Wanying asked anxiously. Knowing that Princess Zhao was not good at lying and didn't like to talk, could it be that Yue'er had forgiven her and was willing to come back to see her? "She encountered an ambush on the road and was too frightened, so she gave birth prematurely. The twins died of excessive blood loss..." Gu Yunru thought of Yue'er's tragic departure, and her heart was full of mixed feelings. She watched Yue'er walk away in front of her.
"What!"
Wanying obviously couldn't accept this fact. She shook her head in confusion and looked at the twins and Yue'er's eyebrows and eyes. They looked so similar, as if they were carved from the same mold.
"Why did Yue'er suddenly return to Da Qi? What happened here?"
Wanying felt something was wrong. How could a pregnant woman take time out from the chaos to return to her parents' home? Gu Yunru took a deep breath and said, "This is about government affairs. In addition to handing the twins over to you today, I also need to discuss this with Yin Zu."
After saying that, he went to the backyard.
Rong Yue's body was also sent back by Rong Zhen. Wanying burst into tears as she looked at her daughter lying in the yard.
"Yuer!" Wanying looked at her daughter who had left with tears in her eyes. Rong Zhen felt bad in his heart. Knowing that his wife was still there, he went to the backyard.
As they were walking, they ran into Shangguan Yurou, who was feeding goldfish in a nearby lotus pond. When she saw Rong Zhen appear, she seemed very surprised.
"Why are you here?" Shangguan Yurou walked forward with a smile on her face.
"I came here to look for my wife."
"So that's how it is. The princess is already discussing something with my husband in the inner room. If you want to go, go in first." Shangguan Yurou looked at him softly. Rong Zhen felt a little embarrassed to be stared at by such eyes. He turned his head away silently and stopped meeting her gaze.
"Ah Zhen!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, Shangguan Yurou stopped him.
"Um?"
Rong Zhen turned around silently, not understanding what he meant.
"Nothing, I just wanted to see if you would respond when I called you."
Shangguan Yurou laughed playfully. She had never played pranks on others like this before.
After Yin Zu heard the news, he rushed back to the capital, ready to discuss the matter with Yin Li. Gu Yunru looked at Rong Zhen and said, "I have already told Yin Zu about the matter. He returned to the capital tonight. This should alert everyone."
"Well, that's best." Rong Zhen nodded in agreement.
The next morning, Gu Yunru was daydreaming in the backyard when she saw the bridesmaid running towards her with a smile on her face.
"What's the matter? Why are you so happy today?" Without saying a word, Bride pulled her sleeve and went to the back kitchen. Through the crack in the door, she could see people having dinner.
"Mrs. Xi, what do you want me to see?" Gu Yunru glanced at them one by one, but didn't think there was anything special. Mrs. Xi smiled obscurely and said, "Look at that young man. He has a fair complexion and a good figure. He looks about the same age as Miss Xiaoyu. I just asked him. His name is Liang Xu. He is from a family of scholars and will go to Beijing to take the imperial examination this year. What do you think of this young man?"
It turned out that she was looking for a partner for Xiaoyu. Gu Yunru nodded and said, "He's quite good-looking, but I don't know what his character is like. You go..." Gu Yunru whispered in her ear.
"Sir, your chicken chestnuts are here!" The waiter placed the chicken chestnuts on the table and stepped aside. Liang Xu used chopsticks to stir it and found that the meat inside the chicken chestnuts was actually beef, so he called the waiter and said, "Waiter, this doesn't look like chicken, it looks like beef."
The bridesmaid exclaimed excitedly, "Look at this young man, he is really good. If someone else had eaten this beef chestnut, they would definitely not say a word. I didn't expect him to confront the waiter."
Gu Yunru also nodded with satisfaction. They had used this method before. It could be said that all is fair in war, but not many people could survive this test. It seemed that Mr. Liang was indeed a very upright person!
"Oh, I'm sorry, sir. It must have been a mistake made by the kitchen. I'll go and get you a new one!" The waiter said as he went down the stairs.

Young Master Liang sat upright at the table. Even when drinking, he was very gentle and polite. It was hard for the woman not to be moved. Gu Yunru straightened her sleeves and walked over to sit in front of Young Master Liang.
"Who is this girl?"
"Next is the owner of Huajianlou. The waiter was careless and served the wrong dish just now. I hope you don't mind it." Gu Yunru looked at him with a smile. From a distance, this young man had a fair and tender face, and had not suffered from wind and sun. When he looked at him from closer, he had quite some temperament.
"It's okay. These are just some trivial matters. I didn't expect to trouble the shopkeeper to come and apologize in person."
"How can this be a trivial matter? If everyone ordered the chicken and chestnuts, and later it turned into beef, how much money would my restaurant lose? I still have to thank Mr. Liang!" Gu Yunru looked at the young man with smiling eyes. The young man was quite knowledgeable and sensible, worthy of being a learned and elegant gentleman.
“Actually, I’m not happy with the shopkeeper because I’m allergic to beef…” Liang Xu smiled awkwardly, and Gu Yunru gradually retracted the smile from the corner of her mouth. She didn’t expect that she would end up making things worse. It seems that she didn’t try well this time, so she can only change to another strategy, which is the beauty trap! While Liang Xu was eating, Gu Yunru and the bridesmaid took Cai’er upstairs. Ping’er and Cai’er were both maids of similar age, but Cai’er’s appearance was more delicate. Her stunning appearance was hard to spot with her hunched back and chest usually hunched. With a little decoration, she would definitely be a hundred times better than those women in the fireworks and Cuiyan Tower! “Madam… these are your earrings and jewelry. How can Cai’er wear them?” Cai’er looked at Gu Yunru with panic and helplessness. Gu Yunru asked the bridesmaid to stare at Liang Xu’s movements below, and said to Cai’er, “Don’t worry about it for now. At most, I can give these things to you!”
"Oh, thank you so much, Princess!" Cai'er was so happy that she almost fainted. She changed into a emerald fireworks willow skirt and tied a yellow ribbon. She made her hair into a flying fairy bun with two small pigtails hanging in front of her chest. She smeared rouge and powder on her face, making her palm-sized face look even more elegant.
"Madam, that young man is leaving soon!"
