Even if Gu Baizhou made a mistake, if I divorce him, people will still suspect that I have violated the seven reasons for divorce and get divorced.

"But you are now the head of the Marquis's Mansion, and you must take care of the holes in the Marquis's Mansion..."

Before the old lady could finish her words, Yu Wangfei interrupted and said, "Who said I am the head of the Marquis' Mansion now?"

Mrs. Gu was confused for a moment. The jade pendant was clearly handed to her by her own hands. What did she mean by this?

Old Madam Gu didn't understand what she meant.

"What do you mean?" Madam Gu asked in confusion, "If it's not you who is the head of the family, then who is it?"

"Mother-in-law, I am a new wife and still young, so I naturally don't know how to be the head of the household." Yu Wangfei stood up and smiled deliberately, "So I gave this opportunity to the second branch of the Gu family. If you feel that my second uncle and his family are not suitable to be the head of the household, then you should talk to my second uncle."

Yu Wangfei didn't go to the shop alone yesterday. She brought the second branch of the Gu family with her and gave away the power of being the head of the family in public in front of the shop assistants.

When the second branch of the Gu family saw that Yu Wangfei not only used her dowry to solve the crisis of the Marquis' Mansion, but also delivered a brand new Marquis' Mansion to them, they were naturally very happy to accept the jade pendant that was the head of the family.

"Since grandma said whoever is in charge of the family should pay, then let Second Uncle do it. I believe Second Uncle will do his best for the Gu family."

The second branch of the Gu family is also a member of the Gu family. It’s not unknown to Old Madam Gu how much money he has.

She just didn't expect that she would be tricked by Yu Wangfei.

"Impossible!" Mrs. Gu didn't believe it.

As the wife of the first wife, she is still alive, how can the head of the family fall into the hands of the second wife!

"If mother-in-law doesn't believe me, just call my second uncle to come and ask him." Yu Wangfei bowed again, "The seed in my stomach is tired, so I'll go back and rest first."

After saying that, without caring about their expressions, he turned around and left with Yunhua.

When Yu Wangfei proposed to be the head of the family, he had already thought about everything that would follow.

In that situation, she couldn't directly reject Marquis Gu's proposal, otherwise she would be criticized, so she offered to be the head of the household so that she could decide how much dowry to put on the account of the Marquis' Mansion and let outsiders see her magnanimity.

After the matter is accomplished, he will casually hand over the power of the family to others and withdraw from it safely.

This matter soon reached the ears of Lord Gu, who was so angry that he tore all the calligraphy and paintings into pieces with his own hands.

This plan failed again!

After this incident, people in the city praised Yu Wangfei's character, saying that as a daughter-in-law of a marquis, she could personally take out all of her dowry to subsidize her husband's family, which was enough to show that she respected her parents-in-law and was a kind person.

Soon after she married into the Marquis's Mansion, she agreed to let Gu Baizhou take a concubine. She was generous, well-educated and sensible.

However, the Marquis' Mansion has been in a state of disarray these days because of the matter of the Second Housekeeper. When the Second Housekeeper learned that the Marquis' Mansion was a hot potato, they became anxious to get rid of the token of the head of the household.

But Yu Wangfei stayed in Fangfei Garden and never went out. The second house could only return the token to Madam Gu and blame her for not managing the household well and turning the marquis' mansion into such a mess.

Mrs. Gu naturally refused to admit it, and the two of them went to Old Madam Gu to make a scene.

Yu Wangfei also took advantage of this opportunity and quietly came out from the back door with Yunhua.

Chu Yuheng had said before that the theater had been completed, but she had never had the chance to go and see it. Now that she had some free time, she thought about going to take a look.

The theater today no longer looks like the restaurant it once was, especially the sudden appearance of a touch of red among the gray buildings, making the theater look particularly unique.

Because of this special red color, everyone who passes by can't help but come in to take a look.

"The prince is waiting for you upstairs." The guard beside Chu Yuheng saw Yu Wangfei coming and took the initiative to step forward and talk to him.

Yu Wangfei looked up and happened to meet Chu Yuheng's gaze.

After reaching the second floor, Yu Wangfei overlooked the entire theater and found that its design was very different from other theaters in the city and had a quite exotic feel.

"How is it?" Chu Yuheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Yu Wangfei proudly, with an expression that wanted to be praised.

"Why does it have a Persian style?" Yu Wangfei frowned uneasily.

It was supposed to be a garden for listening to opera and drinking tea, but why does it feel like it has taken on a different kind of fun after Chu Yuheng made it like this?

"Doesn't it look good?" Chu Yuheng walked to the table and took out the profits of these days.

The moment he saw the silver, Yu Wangfei admitted that this theater was very beautiful.

"Don't think too much. It's just a place to listen to music and drink tea. I, the Ninth Prince, can't possibly do that kind of business." Chu Yuheng tapped Yu Wangfei on the head with his fan.

Looking at her eyes just now, he guessed what she was thinking, so Chu Yuheng quickly clarified it.

"I didn't think about anything." Yu Wangfei quickly denied.

It would be a lie to say that I didn't miss it. First there was the Red Mansion, and then there was the Persian style. It's really hard not to be suspicious.

"There is a flood in Jiangnan. The emperor ordered me to go to provide disaster relief. I will set off tomorrow." Chu Yuheng said while peeking at Yu Wangfei's reaction. "If anything unexpected happens during my absence, just let Yunhua go find A Fei."

"A Fei?" Yu Wangfei was puzzled. Who was that?

"Chu Fei."

Yu Wangfei immediately realized that this was the name of the Seventh Prince. She was so used to calling him the Seventh Prince that she had even forgotten his real name.

"Okay." Yu Wangfei nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Yu Wangfei just agreed without any expression, and did not tell him to be careful when outside, Chu Yuheng felt a hint of anger inexplicably.

"I'll leave tomorrow." He emphasized again, with an unconcealable hint in his eyes.

But Yu Wangfei didn't understand his implication at all: "Okay."

"I said I'll leave tomorrow!" Chu Yuheng threw the fan on the table angrily and stared at Yu Wangfei.

Even if Yu Wangfei was slow-witted, she could still hear the anger in his words.

But she couldn't understand why he was venting his anger on her when they were leaving tomorrow. It wasn't her who asked Chu Yuheng to leave tomorrow. If he didn't want to go, couldn't he just tell the emperor himself?

"What's wrong?" Yu Wangfei looked at him puzzledly, "You want me to take you there?"

Looking at Yu Wangfei's expression, Chu Yuheng understood that she really didn't know why he was angry, so he took a deep breath and glanced into the distance.

"For ordinary couples in the city, if the husband goes out, the wife will hand-embroider a purse for him to wear close to his body to protect his safety." His voice was very low. He was afraid that Yu Wangfei would hear it, but also afraid that she would not hear it. His heart was full of contradictions.

After all, it is usually the wife who takes the initiative to do this kind of thing, so how could a man ask for it?

Yu Wangfei naturally knew about this custom in the city, but she did not feel that she and Chu Yuheng were husband and wife in her heart, so she naturally thought that there was no need to personally embroider a purse for Chu Yuheng.

Now that Chu Yuheng took the initiative to tell you about this custom, he just wanted Yu Wangfei to give him a purse.
