"Go and keep an eye on her! If she asks for a divorce and leaves the Gu family again, you will get out of the mansion!"

The news spread quickly. After just a cup of tea, Old Madam Gu knew about Yu Wangfei's crazy talk about divorce.

If she hadn't taken into consideration the baby in Yu Wangfei's belly, she would have had Yu Wangfei dragged out of Fangfei Garden and punished by family rules. She would have no right to speak in the Gu family.

Even if she wanted to leave the Marquis' Mansion, she could only be divorced by Gu Baizhou based on the three grounds for divorce. There was no possibility of amicable divorce.

"What a little bitch! My cousin shouldn't have married her." Yu Qiaoqiao complained while massaging the old lady's back.

Ever since the incident with the madman, Yu Qiaoqiao knew that if she wanted to stay in the mansion, she would have to rely entirely on Old Madam Gu to survive, so she came to the old lady every few days to show her courtesy.

"Go to the storehouse and check Yu's dowry." Madam Gu said with a turn of her eyes, "She has already thought about leaving, so it is impossible for her to do as she wishes."

Old Madam Gu wanted to control Yu Wangfei's dowry. Even if Yu Wangfei wanted to leave after the baby was born, she would not be able to take a single piece of silver away from the Gu family.

"Didn't you say that there is no money in the mansion?" The old lady looked at Madam Gu, "Just take out Yu's dowry to support us for a while."

In the capital, if the husband's family uses a woman's dowry to make a living, it would be despised by the aristocratic families, so no wealthy family would ever take the initiative to do so.

And the Gu family is going to be the first one today.

Nanny Du received the order and left with the warehouse key, but when she came back she looked totally bewildered.

"How can you be so flustered?" Old Madam Gu snorted with some disgust.

"Oh no, Madam, Madam, all of Yu's dowry has disappeared." Nanny Du described the empty boxes she saw in the warehouse in a panic.

When they got married, she clearly watched them move in with her own eyes, and the key has always been in the old lady's hands. Could it be that the things in the box had grown legs and ran away?

"What!" Mrs. Gu was shocked.

At that time, she asked Yu to keep the dowry so that she could possess it for herself in the future, but those big boxes were all empty.

Far away in Fangfei Garden, Yu Wangfei was lying leisurely on a toffee chair, holding a folding fan in her hand and fanning herself leisurely.

"Just as madam expected, they really went to the warehouse." Yunhua sat aside and peeled grapes for Yu Wangfei.

In her previous life, her dowry fell into the hands of the Gu family and was squandered by them. How could she be so foolish as to leave her dowry in the warehouse and wait for them to use it this time?

The current Marquis' Mansion is only wealthy on the surface, but in reality it owes countless debts. If it had not relied on the dowry that she brought with her in her previous life, the Marquis' Mansion would have been depleted and the enemies would have come to collect debts long ago.

Not only were the Gu family members ungrateful, they also persecuted her in every way. They were truly heartless.

In this life, she will never let them get their wish.

"They have all been sent to the prince." Yu Wangfei took a bite of the grapes that Yun Hua handed over.

Although I only brought the land deeds and house deeds to Chu Yuheng when I went out last time and asked him to help keep them, it was also from that time that I began to secretly move the jewels out of the warehouse and send them to Chu Yuheng's house.

Although it was just a little bit at a time, it has all been moved now.

As for the door of the warehouse, Chu Yuheng has skilled craftsmen under his command. It's just a door. How can it stop those who make a living by their own skills?

"They are all in the palace. The prince said that if the lady needs anything, he will send someone to deliver it."

"No need, I don't need those things for the time being." Yu Wangfei shook his head quickly.

After saying that, Yu Wangfei picked up another grape and put it into his mouth.

Suddenly, the door of Fangfei Garden rang, and then several maids and old women came in.

Yu Wangfei originally thought that it was the old lady who came to settle accounts with her and asked her to hand over the dowry, but unexpectedly, the person who came in was a servant of Marquis Gu.

"Madam, the Marquis has asked us to dress you up."

Yu Wangfei gave Yunhua a puzzled look. Seeing this, Yunhua immediately stood up and stepped back. After Yu Wangfei was pushed into the room by everyone, she quickly left Fangfeiyuan.

After Yu Wangfei finished dressing up, Yun Hua also came with the latest information.

It turned out that the Seventh Prince suddenly wanted to go boating, and specially sent someone to invite Yu Wangfei to accompany him. Lord Gu had no choice but to lift Yu Wangfei's house arrest and asked his maids to come and dress up Yu Wangfei.

But he was also worried that Yu Wangfei would say nonsense to the Seventh Prince, so he could only let Gu Baizhou go and threaten him.

When Yu Wangfei was carried out of Fangfei Garden, Gu Baizhou stood in front of the garden, staring at her quietly.

"Father asked me to tell you not to say anything you shouldn't." Gu Baizhou took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision, "If something happens to the Gu family, the Yu family will not be able to escape."

Yu Wangfei understood that it was impossible for Marquis Gu to extend his hand to the Yu family in such a short time. He just said this deliberately to scare himself.

If it were her in her previous life, she would have believed it long ago.

As soon as he left the mansion, he was put on a carriage, and the person who came said that it was specially arranged by the Seventh Prince.

But the patterns on the carriage looked familiar, and Yu Wangfei couldn't help but become suspicious.

Soon the car arrived at the destination, Yu Wangfei walked out with the help of Yunhua, and then got on a small boat.

The boat was sailing on the lake, with glittering lotus lanterns on both sides.

Perhaps because it is early autumn, the lotus flowers are lifeless and some have even withered, so the owner of the lake thought of using lotus lanterns instead of lotus flowers, which looks quite artistic.

When he arrived at the pavilion in the lake, Yu Wangfei found a person sitting cross-legged in the pavilion.

At this time, the sky gradually darkened. With the faint candlelight, Yu Wangfei lifted the gauze curtain and walked into the pavilion.

"How come you have such leisure time tonight?" Yu Wangfei said with a smile.

"You guessed it again?" Chu Yuheng was not surprised that Yu Wangfei guessed that he had asked her out in the name of the Seventh Prince.

"Is it difficult?" Yu Wangfei said with a smile, then sat down opposite him and examined the chessboard in front of him.

Originally, Yu Wangfei was not sure, but she felt that she had seen the pattern of the carriage in Chu Yuheng's mansion. After entering the carriage, she saw the snacks on the small table, which were all her favorite foods, so she guessed that the person who asked her out was Chu Yuheng.

Seeing that Chu Yuheng did not take the chess pieces, Yu Wangfei took the initiative to put his white chess box in front of him and took away his black chess pieces.

"You still prefer to use black chess pieces." Chu Yuheng smiled gently.

"What's wrong with the black chess piece?" Yu Wangfei was puzzled. "I remember someone told me that I like to play with the black chess piece when playing chess. This way, I can control the whole game in my hands."

Chu Yuheng suddenly remembered that he had indeed said something like this to her before. It turned out that Yu Wangfei's habit was brought to her by him.
