Marry another wife, the mistress of the marquisate will not serve you anymore

Gu Qinghe widened his eyes in disbelief:

"Brother, what do you mean?

Do you want to kill me?"

Gu Qingchen's eyes were filled with disappointment, and he said coldly:

"You have ruined the reputation of the Gu family by secretly meeting with a man outside your family.

According to the family rules, you are asked to choose one of the four: white silk, sinking pond, poison, or dagger. "

When the two servants saw him waving his hand, they immediately wanted to take Gu Qinghe away.

Gu Qinghe was struck by lightning, and was so frightened that her whole body was shaking:

"Do not!

You can't do this to me.

I am your biological sister.

If my father knew about this, he would never forgive you!"

Although the lady felt ashamed of her behavior, she was, after all, a piece of her flesh and blood.

"stop!"

The two servants stopped immediately, lowered their heads and dared not say a word.

Gu Qinghe ran towards her mother crying and knelt down to beg for mercy:

"Mother, my eldest brother is crazy and he wants to kill me.

Please, please save me!"

The lady felt very uncomfortable, as the palms and backs of her hands were all made of flesh, and she couldn't give up either of them.

"Sister He, you are so confused.

It's too late for you to regret now.

Now, the whole capital knows about your scandal.

How can our Gu family survive in dignity?

And your elder brother, have you ever considered your elder brother's official reputation?"

Gu Qinghe collapsed to the ground helplessly, crying bitterly:

"Mother, sometimes I think I would rather be the daughter of an ordinary family.

In this way, I can live with my ideal husband forever.

Even if your daughter has made a thousand mistakes, she is still the one you gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy.

In this world, only you can save me."

The Second Lady did not want to make such a big fuss, lest the Second House would also be looked down upon:

"Sister-in-law, as the saying goes, paper cannot cover fire.

Since the entire capital city is full of rumors, at this critical juncture, the Gu family will still execute He Jie'er.

Wouldn't that confirm the accusation that He Jie'er was having an affair?

Why bother to let others laugh at you and talk about you?

What's more, you also have to consider Zhijie's marriage.

If she really gets together with Chu Hexuan, your eldest branch's power will be even greater in the future.

See who dares to talk behind my back.

Even if you don't consider yourselves, you should still consider our second branch. There are unmarried girls in the family.

Don’t let it affect my daughter’s marriage.”

When the Third Lady heard this, she thought it was indeed true. Her daughter wanted to marry into a rich family.

“Sister-in-law, in my opinion, execution is too ostentatious and unnecessary.

Otherwise, send her back to the remote environment of her hometown and keep her under strict supervision.

Whether she lives or dies depends entirely on her luck. There is no need to make it known to everyone.

As the saying goes, people need face and trees need bark.

You can't let a single bad apple spoil the whole pot of soup."

Every word they spoke turned into sharp blades, cutting fiercely into the old lady's heart, silently dripping with blood.

The lady knew their inner calculations very well, they were just afraid of implicating their own daughter.

“Second sister-in-law, third sister-in-law, we are all mothers.

Could you be so cruel as to punish your own children?

Even a poisonous tiger won't eat its own cubs!"

The second and third ladies looked at each other, muttering to themselves, but dared not say another word.

Gu Zeqian was eager to protect his wife, and he directly retorted:

"Sister-in-law, what do you mean?

It's obviously your fault for not disciplining your daughter well. Now the matter has become so big, and you still don't want to find a way to resolve it.

On the other hand, he even started to protect his own child.

I tell you, if you don’t execute this family sinner who has brought disgrace to the family.

In the end, it is your Marquisate that will be disgraced."

Gu Zecheng was the only relatively calm person present. After careful consideration, he suggested:

"Sister-in-law, otherwise, let's settle for the next best thing.

I'll risk my reputation and go to the residence of the Chief Censor in person.

Go discuss the marriage with Lord Wu.

Rather than breaking up this star-crossed couple, it would be better for a gentleman to help them achieve their goal.

First of all, it can save He Jie'er's life.

Secondly, it can stop the rumors outside.

This is the best of both worlds.”

Gu Qinghe was originally disheartened, but a ray of hope suddenly ignited in her heart, and she quickly said:

"Second uncle, please save me, I am still young and don't want to die so young.

Shaoze promised me that he would come to propose marriage.

He and I have already been married for a long time, and he will never sit idly by and watch."

Seeing that she was still stubborn, Gu Zecheng said with a dark face:

"Sister He, I've met countless people in my life, and sometimes I really don't know what to say to you.

If Wu Shaoze really has you in his heart, when your third uncle and I discover your affair.

He should have expressed his opinion. By this time, the Wu family would have already asked a matchmaker to come and propose marriage.

To put it bluntly, he is an unreliable man who only cares about his own pleasure and doesn't care about your life or death at all."

Gu Qinghe couldn't believe the truth and broke down crying:

"No, I don't believe it, Shaoze is not that kind of person.

He said that I was the woman he loved most in his life, and he would never take a concubine and would never let me down! "

Seeing that her husband had spoken, the Second Lady followed suit and said:

“Yes, sister-in-law, it would be better for the first house to turn a funeral into a wedding.

It's also for good luck."

The third lady poured cold water on him without thinking:

“But, Brother Chen is getting married to Lan Yue soon, and the betrothal money alone is a huge sum.

How can a Marquisate that is unable to make ends meet afford a generous dowry?"

This matter really touched the old lady's heart. The Marquis's Mansion really couldn't come up with any money at the moment.

After much thought, he decided to find Song Wanyin and ask her to pay more money so that he could solve the Gu family's urgent needs.

The lady turned to Aunt Gui and said:

"Go and ask the lady to come over, and tell her that I have something important to discuss with you."

Gu Qingchen knew what his mother was thinking. Even though she was reluctant, she was unwilling to make a fool of herself in front of the second and third wives.

However, he still refused to bow down to Song Wanyin, which was even more painful than being beaten with twenty sticks.

After a while, Song Wanyin changed into decent clothes and came with Tiancheng.

They rushed back to the mansion half an hour ago, changed their clothes quickly, and had just sat down for a while when Nanny Gui came to deliver a message.

How could she miss such a wonderful show?

Song Wanyin stepped forward and bowed, saying:

"Mother-in-law, two uncles, two aunts, long greetings."

Each member of this big family has his or her own ideas and they are scheming against Song Wanyin in all kinds of ways, wishing to pluck this big fat sheep bald.

The moment Gu Zecheng and Gu Zeqian saw her, their pupils suddenly widened. They had been following her all the way and wanted to catch her red-handed.

Unexpectedly, not only did he lose him, but he also brought great shame to the Gu family.

Gu Zeqian asked knowingly:

"Song Wanyin, didn't you go out to attend the temple fair today?"

Song Wanyin smiled faintly:

"Third uncle, I caught a cold and it's hard for me to go out, so I've been staying in my bedroom to rest."
