Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Bai's delivery went smoothly, and the tense atmosphere in the Gu family was replaced by joy. The eldest daughter had just gotten married, and now there was the happy event of having a new baby. Even the old lady ate half a bowl of rice extra during her meal, and then took Mother Liu to pick out treasures to give to her grandson and second daughter-in-law.

Wang held Gu Ruoxing's hand and returned to the courtyard of the third house. Before she even sat down, she started talking about the second house.

"Ruoxing, although mother doesn't want to admit it, I still have to say that of the three daughters-in-law of the Gu family, your second aunt has the most comfortable life." Wang's voice was much weaker. "Although I laughed at her for being a merchant and following your second uncle to Dengzhou, she actually doesn't have to serve her mother-in-law or look at people's faces."

Gu Ruoxing listened carefully to her mother's words without saying a word.

"Another thing is, if she returns to the capital, she will be the wife of a third-rank official. Your second uncle works in the Ministry of Personnel. How many wives of officials would want to have a good relationship with her? At least, on the surface, they don't look down on her."

"She was in the countryside, far from home, and only gave birth to a daughter. Your grandmother couldn't force your uncle to take a concubine." At this point, Wang gritted her teeth, "But when she returned to the capital, she was pregnant, and gave birth to a boy. It's really a human fate, incomparable."

Gu Ruoxing heard her mother's resigned sigh and said with disapproval, "Mother, even the nobles and generals are only as brave as you can be. Don't say such discouraging words. Gu Qinghe's little brother has just been born. It's hard to say whether he will become a talented person in the future."

Upon hearing this, Wang was naturally satisfied with her daughter's words. If her daughter lost her ambition, then their third branch would really only be able to take over what the second branch had left behind.

"Ruoxing, mother can only rely on you."

"Why rely on her?!" Gu Hong shouted angrily from the doorway, "You should take care of yourself first. Why would you go to Second Sister-in-law's place when you have nothing better to do?"

As soon as Gu Hong entered the house, he heard about this incident. Without waiting for his second brother to call him, he came over to ask for punishment. As a result, before he even entered the house, he heard Wang instilling the idea of ​​marrying into a wealthy family into her daughter.

Is that thing so easy to cling to? There are many people who try to steal the chicken but end up losing the rice.

"Don't go out for the next few days. Copy Buddhist scriptures. When your mind is calm, go and apologize to your second sister-in-law." Gu Hong said.

"How can you say that? I just discussed the marriage of two girls with my second sister-in-law, and I became an unforgivable sinner? The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming in a few days, and I still have to take my daughter to the palace banquet." Wang was anxious and took a few steps forward, almost stumbling.

What kind of family does she come from? A noble family, while Bai is the daughter of a merchant...

"Mother said you don't have to go."

"Father, what about me?" Gu Ruoxing no longer had the heart to comfort her mother and asked hurriedly.

"I mean you don't have to go, but your grandmother said that if your mother reflects on herself enough, she can take you with her," said Gu Hong.

Hearing this, Gu Ruoxing breathed a sigh of relief. "Mother, just write for two days and then go apologize to Second Aunt. It's not a difficult thing. Just bow your head."

Wang looked at her daughter and felt a chill in her heart, but she also knew that what her daughter said was the best choice.

"Okay." Wang lowered her head and her shoulders lost strength.

East Palace

When Xiao Jingheng came back from Yufu Palace, he felt so relieved, as if the two heavy burdens he had been carrying for a long time had finally been taken off.

"Your Highness, I have found out everything you asked me this morning." Han Desheng said with a smile as he came closer.

When Xiao Jingheng left court today, he was paying attention to Gu An's actions as usual. Today, as soon as the court was over, the servant who was usually leisurely came forward and whispered something to him, and Gu An hurried away with an uneasy look on his face.

"Tell me, what happened to the Gu family?" Xiao Jingheng asked. He felt a little regretful at this time. He had withdrawn Zhang Wu, but he was caught by Gu Qinghe and he had fiercely refused. He didn't dare to send anyone else for a while.

Furthermore, in Zhang Wu's words, the third girl's kung fu is definitely not a mediocre or fancy skill.

"It's a happy event." Han Desheng had a smile on his face when he said this. Xiao Jingheng quickly brushed away the thought that emerged in his mind, that is, Gu Qinghe was engaged.

It's really not his fault. He has been on guard against Gu Qinghe recently, and it has become a subconscious thought to be afraid that she will get engaged.

"But your mother-in-law...Mrs. Gu gave birth to a child?" Xiao Jingheng asked with a faint smile.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, you are very smart." Han Desheng flattered him.

"What a brilliant plan! Lord Gu's rare misstep. There aren't many things that can make a man so flustered." Xiao Jingheng said, "Go to the warehouse and pick out a few gifts and send them to the Gu Mansion. You go in person."

"Yes."

The Gu family had a new baby, and many guests came to visit. However, Mrs. Bai was still in confinement after giving birth, so most of the guests came with visiting cards and gifts, and would come in person during the full moon banquet.

Han Desheng brought two boxes of gifts and happened to meet the prince's study companion and secret rival, Chen Yuan, when he arrived. There were also two servants behind him, and it seemed that they had more things than Han Desheng brought, which made Han Desheng feel a little defeated.

"Greetings to Master Chen." Han Desheng said with a slight bow.

"Manager Han, thank you for your courtesy. Are you delivering a gift to Lord Gu on behalf of the Crown Prince?" Chen Yuan asked casually.

Han Desheng wanted to say, of course not, this gift was given for Miss Gu San's sake. The prince is the king and Gu An is the minister. How can a king give a gift to his minister?

However, when he came, the prince specifically instructed him not to affect the reputation of the third young lady.

"Yes, Lord Gu has devoted himself to the cause. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince heard that there is a happy event at home, so he came to add to the good news." Han Desheng smiled and said, "Lord Chen is here too, right?"

"No, I'm following my mother's orders. The things I'm delivering are all nourishing things for women. We had previously agreed to go to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense, but my wife gave birth prematurely. By the way, I'd like to ask if the previous agreement can still be carried out?" Chen Yuan said very innocently and naturally.

Han Desheng took a breath when he heard this. As expected, it was less stressful to have a mother to take care of things. On the other hand, Concubine Li in the palace was lucky that she didn't hold the Crown Prince back every day.

"It seems that Madam Chen and Madam Gu have a close relationship." Han Desheng said with a forced smile. He began to get anxious again. What was going on?

Han Desheng looked at Chen Yuan carefully. He was tall and strong, with a dignified appearance. If there was any flaw, it was that his skin was a little dark. But wasn't it too much to ask a military officer to have fair skin?

Moreover, it can make people around you look fairer, which can be considered an advantage.

Then he is not as powerful and rich as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. What a coincidence, the third lady doesn't like power and wealth.

After Han Desheng thought about it, he actually felt that Chen Yuan was quite good. He quickly shook his head, trying to get rid of this scary idea.

"Master Chen, I'll be leaving first. I have something urgent to report to the Crown Prince." After Han Desheng finished speaking, he slipped away.
