"Tomorrow..."

Gu Zhixuan opened his mouth, and hesitantly reminded him.

"Okay, let's sleep."

Lu Youting pulled the quilt and turned sideways to hug Gu Zhixuan and said.

Gu Zhixuan patted Lu Youting, his mouth moved again.

"Stop talking, I won't be polite anymore."

Lu Youting threatened, Gu Zhixuan smiled and fell asleep.

On the second day, Nanny Chi came over early to call someone, with a smile on her face.

"What's the good news?"

Lu Youting looked at Gu Zhixuan and asked with a smile on his lips.

"Third Uncle has already arrived in Beijing, and he said that he will also visit the Hou Mansion today."

Gu Zhixuan said in a low voice.

"Oh? But come here to see if I have bullied you?"

Lu Youting glanced sideways at Gu Zhixuan and asked.

Gu Zhixuan's face was embarrassed, his third uncle did ask Lu Youting if he treated him badly, but he firmly vetoed it.

"Anyway, you should say something nice to me, and be more affectionate to me in front of third uncle, remember?"

Lu Youting warned.

"Understood, you can eat quickly."

Gu Zhixuan cast a shameful glance at the maid who was holding back her laughter, and urged her.

Lu Youting hummed twice before using it himself.

When they arrived at Hou Mansion, they were startled by the carriage in front of the door.

"What's going on? Isn't it trivial?"

Lu Youting said in surprise, you must know that this is not the anniversary of Wang's death.

"Brother Lu."

Just when a luxury carriage came over, Kong Zhengfang got down.

Lu Youting saw the brocade clothes he was wearing, and walked over to say hello.

"My father asked me to come and pay respects."

Kong Zhengfang said cautiously.

"It's polite."

Lu Youting hastily saluted.

Kong Zhengfang returned the gift, followed by as if he had something to say to Lu Youting.

"Brother Zheng shouldn't be here, right?"

Lu Youting said with a low smile.

"Don't mention it, after being told by that guy surnamed Wang, he just ignored me."

Kong Zhengfang said with a wry smile.

"What did you say? Who is the guy surnamed Wang?"

Lu Youting asked with a gentle smile.

Kong Zhengfang glanced at Lu Youting, he was stunned for a moment, but then he gave Lu Youting a quick glance and went straight inside.

Lu Youting smiled and was about to go inside when Lu Wenzheng came out from the mansion.

"Xiao Ting, you stand for a while, grandfather said there are too many people, let's stand outside to pick up some guests."

Lu Wenzheng stopped Lu Youting and said.

"A lot of people have come?"

Lu Youting asked in surprise.

"Well, quite a few have come here, and there are two or three noble girls who all say they are my mother's good sisters back then."

Lu Wenzheng nodded and spoke in a low voice.

Lu Youting clicked his tongue, he didn't know who specially released the news, but he turned around and glanced at Gu Zhixuan.

Gu Zhixuan couldn't see his expression with his cap on.

Gu Zhixuan's heart trembled, he didn't expect that he would become like this just by pushing him a little bit, but he also knew that the main reason was that the Wang family was coming back.

People in the power circle have a very sensitive sense of smell, so naturally they want to please the Wang family one step ahead.

In addition, this is also because Li's natal family is very incompetent, and no one pays attention to it, otherwise they would not be so daring.

"There was a disturbance early in the morning, and I was scolded by my grandfather, so I just said that if I continue to make trouble, I will let Mrs. Lu and Li come out to treat guests."

Lu Wenzheng stood upright, taking advantage of the absence of guests, he spoke with a smile on his lips.

Lu Youting laughed when he thought of the way Mrs. Lu and Li stood next to Mrs. Wang's tablet to receive guests.

"How could she be willing?"

Lu Youting said with a sneer.

"Of course I don't want to. I said in advance that I am very sick, and I need the master of Fayuan Temple to help her exorcise evil spirits."

Lu Wenzheng said with some disdain.

After hearing this, Lu Youting turned around and pulled Gu Zhixuan aside.

"Husband, someone is here."

Gu Zhixuan said something nervously in a low voice.

"My elder brother will take care of it, you stand up for me!"

Lu Youting let out a low drink.

Gu Zhixuan had no choice but to stand obediently against the wall.

"What the hell is going on?"

Lu Youting asked in a anxious voice.

"It's nothing, I just let someone pass some messages to a few noble girls my mother befriended before."

Gu Zhixuan said a few words in a weak voice.

"You are so brave. Grandpa will definitely think that I did it."

Lu Youting glared at Gu Zhixuan and said.

"I didn't expect so many people to come back. I thought it should be because my husband's grandfather's family is coming."

Gu Zhixuan whispered a little aggrieved.

Seeing him like this, Lu Youting didn't have much anger in the first place, even less angry.

"I don't care, if my grandfather blames me, I'll blame you!"

Lu Youting said threateningly.

After Gu Zhixuan heard this, he didn't speak, and finally reached out to hold Lu Youting's hand.

Lu Youting shook off his hand, continued to look at Gu Zhixuan coldly and said, "What else?"

Gu Zhixuan paused, looked left and right, and said, "It's not very good to talk about it here, shall we wait until it's quiet?"

"Just do bad things behind my back! You will kill me sooner or later."

Lu Youting taught Gu Zhixuan a few words.

"Youting, Zhixuan, you two come here."

Just over there, Lu Wenzheng called out.

Gu Zhixuan slightly pushed Lu Youting and said, "It should be my third uncle who came over."

Only then did Lu Youting turn around, just in time to see a handsome man with a scribe beard leading a young man standing over there.

"Meet the third uncle."

Lu Youting went over and saluted politely.

Gu Zhixuan next to him also saluted and called Third Uncle.

Gu San glanced at Gu Zhixuan and then at Lu Youting, nodded and said, "Forgive me for coming so suddenly."

"Third Uncle speaks nonsense, and Third Uncle is always welcome when he comes."

Lu Youting said with a smile.

Then Gu San nodded slightly, pointed to the person next to him and said, "This is my worthless son, Zhixuan's cousin Wenzhi."

"It's the same word as me."

Lu Wenzheng interjected with a smile.

"Don't dare, I've heard of Brother Wenzheng's name a long time ago."

Gu Wenzhi hastily saluted and spoke.

Lu Wenzheng naturally wanted to praise him politely, and Gu San wanted to treat Lu Wenzheng even more politely.

Lu Youting could only obediently stand aside and listen to the conversation between the two.

"You Ting, you can lead Third Uncle in."

Lu Wenzheng finally brought the topic to Lu Youting.

Lu Youting nodded, and led Gu Sanchao inside.

He didn't know if he didn't go in. Although the Zhengyonghou Mansion was not completely empty, the formation was quite astonishing.

Suo Xing Wang is a wife after all, so it's not good for everyone to pay homage, but she is politely led to a hall beside her.

The people in the hall looked up and saw the Gu family Gu San coming, and they were all surprised. Although the Gu family's power in the capital has been reduced a lot, it doesn't mean that the Gu family will die.

On the contrary, the family in the south is still a big family.

Gu San came here this time, as if to save face for Lu Youting, after all he didn't come here to curry favor with the Wang family.

After all, the two are rivals.

So Gu San was able to come this time, naturally it was to save face for Lu Youting and for Gu Zhixuan.

The people in the hall naturally looked at Lu Youting highly, even Zheng Yonghou was a little surprised.

Gu San took Gu Wenzhi to meet Zheng Yonghou, and Zheng Yonghou naturally gave Gu San a VIP reception.

"You Ting, it's time, you go to kowtow to your mother to show your filial piety."

Zhengyong waited here to dismiss Lu Youting.

Lu Youting nodded, and led Gu Zhixuan to the yard.

When he got to the yard, he saw Gu Minghan looking at him with hatred in his eyes.

"Why is he here?"

Lu Youting frowned and asked in a low voice.

"I don't know, maybe it's Master Hou's idea."

Gu Zhixuan replied in a low voice, and the two went to meet Lu Minghan.

Lu Minghan opened his mouth to scold, but seeing the big butler next to him, he couldn't open his mouth anymore, so he had to teach Lu Youting a few words in secret.

Lu Youting just lowered his head in response.

"Third young master, go inside."

Here the butler spoke again.

Lu Youting nodded and went inside.

When he entered, he heard several rows of monks chanting scriptures in a low voice. After saluting, he took Gu Zhixuan aside.

Gu Zhixuan and Lu Youting knelt on the side, Gu Zhixuan reached out and took Lu Youting's hand.

Lu Youting gave him a peaceful look, and the two of them stayed quietly.

When the time is right, if the female guests come in to worship, the monks will naturally avoid it.

As soon as he entered the door, he heard the sound of crying. Lu Youting didn't know many people, and Gu Zhixuan next to him raised him in advance to remind him.

Lu Youting, who was too late, yelled something.

"My sister!"

One by one stood on the side and cried bitterly.

Lu Youting didn't know which one was really friendly with Wang and which one came to gain influence, so he just lowered his head and wiped the corners of his eyes.

After persuading those noble ladies, the first one who came over was Princess Fuzheng.

Lu Youting was also a little surprised, Princess Fuzheng looked at Lu Youting and nodded and said: "No wonder Fang Er often said in front of me that he is on good terms with you, it seems like a good one."

"Princess, it's amazing. I learned a lot from Brother Zhengfang."

Lu Youting hurriedly saluted with a very humble attitude.

Princess Fuzheng nodded, and said: "Don't be too sad, your mother will definitely feel at ease when she sees that you have grown up now."

Hearing these words, Lu Youting knew that the friendship between Princess Fuzheng and the Wang family was very ordinary, he thought that it must be Kong Zhengfang who begged Princess Fuzheng to come over for him to save face.

"It seems that this kid is planning to let me speak well in front of Zheng Sheng for him."

Lu Youting muttered in his heart, but he still wiped the corner of his eyes and agreed.

"My dear sister!"

Just as Princess Fuzheng left, someone came in crying bitterly.

Lu Youting saw that it was Zhi Ge who came in with the help of a crying and distressed woman.

Gu Zhixuan was also taken aback, he frowned and said in a low voice: "I don't know this lady, could it be that your uncle went to the northwest to marry newly?"

At this moment, Lu Youting saw that the woman had a more exotic face.

Lu Youting brewed up his feelings and was about to go to cry, but the woman stood up, swept around the crowd, and finally said bitterly: "My sister was in good health when we left, and she didn't have any illnesses. The mansion is very good! It even gave away a good living person! Even after my sister left, someone came in with a wild seed! What a family style, what a family style!"
