Mrs. Gu agreed after a brief moment of pondering. Her words were righteous and considerate. She expressed her gratitude to the younger generations of the Murong family for their filial piety.

Mrs. Murong didn't expect things to go so smoothly, she was overjoyed.

She thanked Mrs. Gu again and again, saying that she would go to arrange the marriage immediately after returning to the mansion, and she would invite the Daoist Shangqing before noon to calculate the auspicious time to welcome the relatives, so she left.

After the people left, only Mrs. Gu was left sitting at the head of the main room of Cihetang.

Nanny Li glanced at the pot leak, and wanted to ask Mrs. Gu if she wanted to serve a meal, but before she could say anything, she saw a figure in a purple cloak walking towards her in the courtyard outside.

Mrs. Gu also saw Gu Yunxie outside the house, and she couldn't help showing a gentle and loving smile on her face.

After Gu Yunxie saluted, she affectionately pulled Gu Yunxie to her side, and said with a smile: "Sister Xie, didn't you ask you not to come this morning?"

"Is grandma annoying me?" Gu Yunxuan pouted, her tone was intimate and playful, with a hint of coquettishness.

"How could it be! Grandmother wishes for you to come often." Mrs. Gu felt that it was very useful, patted the back of Gu Yunxie's hand, and sighed kindly, "You are the most filial child, always thinking about me."

"Grandmother is good to me, of course I miss grandma." Gu Yunxie leaned her head on Mrs. Gu's shoulder affectionately.

After returning from Yuhengyuan, Gu Yunxie felt very uneasy.

In just over two months, she had already lost her elder brother and elder sister, and everything she had was lost.

Gu Yunxie has never felt so uneasy before, even the moment when her life experience was revealed...

Her heart was in a mess, so she came to Cihetang.

Feeling the warmth from Mrs. Tai, Gu Yunxie felt relieved all of a sudden, as if a floating heart had found a home.

That's right, Mrs. Tai is different from them.

She will not alienate herself because of her blood relationship. In this Gu family, she is the only one who loves herself as a granddaughter.

Gu Yunxie coquettishly rubbed against Mrs. Gu's shoulders, and the bangs on her forehead spread out with this movement, revealing the red and swollen bumps on her forehead like walnuts, which looked shocking on her white jade-like skin.

"My darling, why did your forehead hurt?" Mrs. Gu said with great distress, "Come on, show grandma."

She carefully looked at Gu Yunxie's face, and found that she looked unhappy, as if she was hiding something on her mind.

Gu Yunxie raised his hand to cover the injury on his forehead with his bangs, and smiled nonchalantly: "Grandmother is fine, I accidentally bumped into it this morning."

Mrs. Gu frowned slightly, always feeling that Gu Yunxie seemed to be hiding something.

"Did Gu Yanfei do it?"

Mrs. Gu asked straightforwardly, knowing that Gu Yanfei was the only one who would make things difficult for Gu Yunwei in this mansion.

Gu Yunxie didn't speak, but quietly leaned against Mrs. Gu, her eyes were half-closed, and she had a rather charming posture.

Mrs. Gu felt even more distressed when she saw it, she gently stroked Gu Yunxie's back with one hand, and regretted it again: she shouldn't have found him back, and disturbed the family's peace now, so it's okay to make mistakes at the beginning.

Gu Yunxi leaned against Mrs. Gu's attachment, and after a while, she said softly, "Grandmother, if Eldest Sister doesn't want to celebrate, why don't you let it go."

The little maid serving in the room went to see Mrs. Gu nervously, thinking that Mrs. Gu would be angry.

Mrs. Gu was startled, and she immediately figured it out: So it was because of Gu Yunzhen that her sister was injured.

She sighed slightly: "You have always loved your sisters, good boy."

"However, this matter is for your eldest sister's benefit. Don't look at your eldest sister marrying in a hurry. Once married, the Murong family will definitely miss her. In this life, no one will surpass her. She will have a good life in the future. It’s long, so why fight for a moment.”

Mrs. Gu patted Gu Yunxie's hand again.

Meeting her loving eyes, Gu Yunxie nodded lightly, and the pearl earrings on her earlobe moved slightly, making her eyes twinkle.

I sighed in my heart: Yes, such a simple truth, why doesn't the eldest sister understand it?

She is different from herself.

Seeing Gu Yunxie's well-behaved appearance, Mrs. Gu's expression softened a bit, and she said again with brilliant eyes: "The second son Murong has already entered the Shenji camp. With him here, he will be able to help King Kang in the future."

"Sister Xie, don't worry, your marriage with Kang Wang will definitely go smoothly."

Gu Yunxuan responded in a low voice, her eyelashes drooping slightly, revealing a shyness that she was reluctant to speak.

She said to herself in her heart that she didn't need her eldest sister to sacrifice for her, with Chu You around, the Murong family would definitely treat her eldest sister badly in the future.

This is a good thing for the big sister.

For the eldest sister, she felt that she had no regrets.

After accompanying Mrs. Tai for breakfast in Cihe Hall, Gu Yunxie helped her to walk to the ancestral hall.

The grandfather and grandson walked all the way, talked all the way, talked and laughed, and made Mrs. Gu laugh so hard that she couldn't stop laughing.

They arrived a bit late, and most of the other people from the various houses of the Hou Mansion were waiting in the ancestral hall, surrounded by jewels, some were exchanging greetings, some were talking about their children, some were whispering...

Seeing Mrs. Gu coming, everyone fell silent and stepped forward to greet her.

The crowd surrounded Mrs. Gu and walked into the front hall of the ancestral hall like stars and the moon. At first glance, the ancestors were kind and the grandson was filial, and they were happy.

Before entering the room, Xia Lian took off the cloak for Gu Yunxie, revealing the primrose-colored embroidered white butterfly skirt under the cloak.

The bright colors are eye-catching.

"Third sister, your clothes are really pretty!" The fourth girl, Gu Yunlan, took Gu Yunmai's arm affectionately, and said affectionately, "You can finally give up your Cailingyuan."

Since Su Niang was sent to the government, Gu Yunxie has been silent for a period of time, almost staying at home.

Gu Yunlan asked her to go out to play several times, but she declined all of them politely. Gu Yunlan was disappointed for a while, but there was nothing she could do.

"I've been hand-copying Buddhist scriptures for my grandfather these days, thinking that I can burn them to my grandfather on the day of worshiping the ancestors." Gu Yunxie and Gu Yunlan cuddled each other intimately, with sweet and amiable smiles, like the gentle breeze in March in spring.

"From tomorrow onwards, I'll be free. We can go shopping together and buy some things for the New Year."

She made Gu Yunlan laugh with a few words, and other girls from the Gu family spoke one after another, saying that they wanted to go shopping with Gu Yunxie and the others.

The girls talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Mrs. Gu looked at Yanyan's cousins, and couldn't help but smile.

Her smiling gaze swept across Gu Yunxie, and then landed on Gu Yunzhen who was sitting not far in front.

Gu Yunzhen looked back at the past with a full smile, his smile was gentle, and he was still dignified and virtuous as usual.

The girl in front of her is clearly the granddaughter she watched and grew up with, with the same appearance, the same smile, and the same temperament, but for some reason, Mrs. Gu always feels that there seems to be something different.

As if overnight, Gu Yunzhen became another person.

"Madame."

Gu Yuan, who was sitting next to Gu Yanfei, called out Madam Gu's thoughts.

Everyone around felt a subtle spark from his "Mrs. Tai". In the past, Gu Yuan used to call Mrs. Gu his grandmother, but now he changed his name to "Mrs. Tai" just like Gu Yanfei.

Gu Yuan said coldly: "I don't know what my sister did wrong, Madam Tai will punish her to kneel in the ancestral hall?"

"If the house can't accommodate the long house, then it's better to live separately."

"In case I am not on duty, Mrs. Tai wants to send my sister to Cijing Nunnery."

Gu Yuan's eyes were stern, revealing an arrogance and self-confidence like mountains and rivers, and his whole body was full of vigor and a sense of danger.
