Old Madam Gu heard her daughters-in-law teasing her and scolded with a smile:

"You two are late. You saw me hugging the darling first. You are jealous!"

Madam Gu wrung a handkerchief in the basin, walked closer to the bed, and said with a smile:

"Good boy, will your aunt wipe your face? After it's done, your second aunt will change you into nice clothes. The ancestors in our Gu family's ancestral hall are all waiting to see the real eldest daughter of the Gu family!"

Xie Feiwan panicked when he heard this. This was a big event to open the ancestral hall and record the family tree.

Looking at the shadows of the trees outside the window, it should be noon. I slept too deeply and got up too late. The whole Gu family is waiting for me!

"I... I got up late..." Xie Feiwan has always been calm and steady, and has never been so embarrassed!

"Why delay?" Madam Gu patted her granddaughter on the back. "When my dear goes over, they will see him! My dear has suffered so much, but they didn't come to me in my dreams. I don't want them to see him anymore!"

Mrs. Gu was at a loss for words. Her mother-in-law had always had a hot temper and had the final say in the Gu family.

Now, for Xie Feiwan, even the ancestors of the Gu family have been involved!

Having said that, Xie Feiwan's movements became more agile.

Madam Gu personally helped to wash and tie her hair, and none of the maids in the room got the chance to do anything!

"Look around, dear. What kind do you like?" Madam Gu directed the others to bring in three large boxes.

The box was full of colorful clothes of various styles, patterns, fabrics and colors.

There is another small box next to it, which contains various sachets, purses and other accessories.

"Is this the new model of Xiangyunlou?" Madam Gu picked out two pieces and examined them carefully before nodding with satisfaction.

"Mother has good eyesight!" Madam Gu was sweet-mouthed and immediately praised:

"The patterns I drew last month are all new clothes here. There is no other clothes like them anywhere else in the world!"

"My niece is going back to her own home, so naturally she has to wear her family's clothes. I asked Xiangyunlou to send them all over!"

Madam Gu smiled so hard that all her wrinkles disappeared: "I'm at ease with you doing the job!"

Fu added: "Don't make this batch of clothes anymore. I'm Gu's good girl and I don't want to wear the same clothes as others!"

"Do I need mother's instructions for this?" Madam Gu blinked and said playfully, "My daughter-in-law has already given instructions. From now on, Xiangyunlou will make twelve sets of clothes for you every ten days. Each one is different. We will not sell any of them. They will only be worn by you!"

"Good! Good! Good!" Old Madam Gu clapped her hands and laughed. Her darling had suffered so much, it would not be too much to pamper him to the sky now!

"Your second aunt likes to talk, and our family doesn't have many rules, so don't mind it, dear!"

Madam Gu was very considerate and was afraid that Xie Feiwan would think that the Gu family was noisy, had no hierarchy, and had lost its rules and manners!

This kind of family atmosphere was indeed the first time Xie Feiwan had seen it.

In her previous life, in Xie Mansion and Hou Mansion, she had always strictly followed the rules of etiquette.

Don't show your teeth when you smile, don't swing your skirt when you walk, these are the rules for being a lady and are deeply engraved in our bones!

I have never received a jiu-ji ceremony, and my elders still help me wash and dress.

I have never seen a daughter-in-law laughing and joking like this in front of her mother-in-law.

Thinking of her grandfather and other male elders outside the courtyard, she would rather wait than have anyone wake her up.

Xie Feiwan felt so bitter in his heart, God finally opened his eyes!

She must live a good life in this life so that those who truly love her will no longer be heartbroken and disappointed!

"Second aunt, Feiwan likes to be lively!"

After hearing what Xie Feiwan said, Madam Gu breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily:

"Just be nice and like it! Your second aunt has a good mouth for a good reason!"

"Sister-in-law, don't tarnish my image in front of Guaiguai!" Madam Gu picked out a lilac-colored gauze skirt with butterfly embroidery:

"Look at this one, do you like it?"

Xie Feiwan nodded repeatedly: "I like it!"

The color of this gauze skirt is low-key, but the piping is outlined with gold thread, the butterflies are embroidered with silver thread, and the butterfly wings are dotted with tiny gems. When it sways, it emits colorful lights, which is beautiful!

With Xie Feiwan's approval, Madam Gu was even happier:

"I told you that Guaiguai will like the clothes I picked. I will also pick some sachets and footwear for you!"

There was constant laughter in Xie Feiwan's room, and in the Gu family's flower hall,

Gu Yechen sat at the head of the table, opened his eyes and looked at his two sons and two grandsons, then shook his head and sighed:

"This room is full of men, and they stink. It makes me upset just looking at them!"

"Father, you can't treat us like shit just because you found your granddaughter!"

Gu Heshan shouted in a hoarse voice: "We are all men, no one should look down on anyone else!"

"Yes, you and mother gave birth to three sons in a row, why didn't you give birth to a daughter? Don't you want to give birth?" Gu Hechuan took a sip of tea and continued his elder brother's words.

Our parents taught us well since we were young: Brothers united can accomplish anything!

Gu Yechen was very angry, but in the blink of an eye, the corner of his mouth turned up again: "Guaiguai is back. From now on, you two brothers will work outside and come home less often. Guaiguai and I will enjoy the good life at home!"

"Father, I cannot agree to this!" Gu Heshan said seriously:

"My family's business is all over the country. If I do everything myself, I will be exhausted. From now on, I will stay in Beijing and let the managers run more!"

"Shi'an will take the imperial examination next year. As a father, of course I have to accompany him. I won't leave!"

"Grandfather, Shi'an and I will both take the imperial examination next year, so of course we have to live in the capital for a long time!"

Gu Yechen blew his beard and glared: "What are you going to take the exam for? What place can you get?"

Gu Jiusi scratched his head: "If nothing else, I'm sure I'll be at the bottom of the list!"

"Now that both of you are on the list, who will take care of the family business?" Gu Yechen was very angry. He was already over sixty years old. Couldn't he enjoy his retirement?

"Grandfather, father and second uncle are strong and healthy. They can work for another thirty years! Besides, in these thirty years, they can always give birth to a child who does business, right?"

Before he finished speaking, a slap landed on Gu Jiusi's head:

"Dogs bark!"

Gu Heshan hit him once and wanted to hit him a second time: "I tell you, if you can't make it into the top ten, you will have to come back and inherit the family business!"

Just as they were arguing, a maid came to the door and said, "Master, the girl is here!"

Gu Yechen immediately waved his hands: "Stop making noise! ​​Be quiet!"

Madam Gu led Xie Feiwan into the flower hall. All the men in the hall sat upright, not saying a word, as if they were about to meet the distinguished guest who would decide their life and death!

"Why do you all look like you're dead?" As soon as Madam Gu entered the room, she frowned and scolded everyone:

"My dear, she likes to be lively. Who are you showing off to? Are you really trying to disgust my dear?"

Gu Heshan's face fell: "I knew I would be scolded if I listened to my father's instructions!"

Gu Yechen glanced at his wife guiltily, then jumped up and grabbed Xie Feiwan:

"My dear, did you sleep well last night? I had the sparrows on the roof chased away overnight. Did they disturb you?"
