Make You Happy

  Chapter 194 Panic

  After leaving the Ruan Mansion, Mrs. Ning Guogong did not go out of the city to return to Quanling Villa, but followed Gu Changan back to his residence in Beijing.

   "Chang An, you have already told that girl about the West Building with such confidence."

  At this time, Mrs. Ning Guogong's face was expressionless, but there seemed to be something flowing in those eyes.

   After waiting for her to take her seat, Gu Changan replied with a serious face: "I want to marry a wife who returns home. I think I need to explain clearly to her."

   "Then, you also promised that he would also become the master of the West Building after passing through the door? Gu Shoufu's dowry is really amazing, and you are not afraid to let the world know that you dote on your wife too much?"

   On the carriage back, Gu Changan told Mrs. Ning Guo about the last letter he handed over to Ruan Youqing.

   Mrs. Ning Guogong heard it, although she didn't have much reaction, but when she returned to the mansion, she couldn't help but speak.

  Seeing his grandmother looking at him with deep eyes, Gu Changan said helplessly, "That's why I secretly gave her a piece of letterhead and told her about myself."

   "That's why you like her?" Mrs. Ning Guo frowned slightly, her eyes fixed on Gu Chang'an.

  「Yes, I like it very much, so much that I want to give her everything I have.」

  Mrs. Ning Guo smiled, and said lightly: "Tsk, if you let those civil and military officials who regard you as a scourge see you, they will be frightened to think that you are possessed by a ghost."

However, Gu Changan spread his hands with a meaningless expression: "What they think is never what I care about. It's just..." His expression changed, and he continued: "Grandmother usually doesn't care about me. Could it be that this time? ..."

Mrs. Ning Guogong snorted and patted him lightly: "I'm too lazy to care about you so much. Since you like it, treat him well, and don't give up. No matter how powerful a girl is, her heart is soft, too. Those who need love and protection.”

  Seeing how open-minded his grandmother was, Gu Changan immediately smiled and said, "I knew my old lady was different from other old ladies!"

  While the two were chatting and laughing, Mrs. Ning Guogong suddenly turned her head and called the servant girl to bring over a wooden box beside her pillow.

  After the little maid brought it over, Mrs. Ning Guogong opened the wooden box with some emotion, and took out a bright white jade bracelet from the box.

   "This is..." Gu Changan asked first.

Mrs. Ning Guogong smiled, and put the jade bracelet in Gu Changan's palm: "Although I have bought a lot of things for you, this jade bracelet... I have been wearing it all the time, and it has a special meaning to me. Ordinary meaning. Seeing that you are so sincere to that girl today, I thought of giving this jade bracelet to you."

Gu Changan was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head, and wanted to return the jade bracelet: "Grandmother, since this jade bracelet is of great significance to you, you should keep it for yourself. If Youqing is here, I'm afraid she will I won't take it."

   "You just have to accept it. This jade bracelet is a good thing. I'm already old and I don't need it anymore. It's time... to give it to young people."

   Seeing that the other party insisted on giving him the jade bracelet, Gu Changan could only accept it temporarily.

Seeing that Gu Changan accepted it, Mrs. Ning Guogong smiled reassuringly: "Look, wouldn't it be better if you put it away earlier? Don't let me waste so much time! Well, it's not too early, we will eat later Rest early after dinner, I heard that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, envoys from various countries will visit, and then... you will be busy."

Speaking of this, Gu Chang'an couldn't help but become serious: "Grandmother, it is understandable that Yuhuan and Canglong sent envoys to visit, but Nanting and Guzi also sent envoys this year...does it mean... "

  Ms. Ning Guohong looked up at him, and said meaningfully: "They are not safe, no, it should be said... they are not safe. You should know what to do, but... Be careful."

  …

  Rong Yan didn't know until early in the morning of the second day that it wasn't just the prince who gave the betrothal gift yesterday.

   That chief assistant Gu Changan she had admired... actually... also sent a betrothal gift to the sick man in the Ruan Mansion!

  At first, she waited for the arrival of the prince with full of anticipation, but after seeing the ten carriages, the fire of anticipation in her heart was quickly extinguished.

   Not to mention, the prince never came here in person.

It was hard... It was hard to comfort the prince. This is a low-key act and does not want to make too much publicity. The next morning, when she just woke up, Jin'er was crying and told her that Mr. Shoufu also went to give the dowry yesterday. things.

  If it was just a dowry...Jin Er shouldn't have reacted like this.

  Therefore, after Rong Yan adjusted her mentality, she pretended not to care and said, "His Royal Highness always cares about being close to the people, and he can't let others give the betrothal gift on the day when he gives the betrothal gift."

  Jiner shook her head, and said cautiously: "Miss, this is not what I want to say. I... I am going out this morning... I heard that it is..."

  Looking at Rong Yan's face showing a trace of impatience, Jin'er rubbed her hands, regretting that she said so much.

   Sure enough, seeing Jin'er's appearance, Rong Yan's tone was a bit cold: "Just say what you heard, what kind of hesitation!"

  After hearing this, Jin'er could only take a deep breath, and then said timidly, "Miss, the betrothal gift that Mr. Shoufu sent to the Ruan Mansion...I heard...a total of twenty carriages..."

   "Twenty carriages?!" Rong Yan's voice was a bit sharp.

   "And... moreover, Mr. Shoufu also brought Mrs. Ningguo, who hasn't been seen outside for a long time, with him..."

  Seeing that the face of her own lady was covered with dark clouds, Jin'er flinched and took a few steps back after saying the last word.

   "Bang!" A vase flew directly over Jin'er's head, landed at the door, and shattered to the ground.

   "Small...Miss, calm down!" Jin'er knelt down in fear, lowering her head and not daring to look at Rong Yan's face.

   "Shut up! What is a little lady! Don't stutter! I don't want to hear what little lady! Save yourself thinking of that bitch! Bad luck!"

  「Yes...Miss...」

  Rong Yan's eyes were red at this time, and her chest was heaving violently due to strong anger: "Gu Chang'an, how dare he prepare more than His Highness the Crown Prince!"

  Jin'er still didn't dare to raise her head, half prostrate on the ground, her voice trembling: "Miss Hui... I heard that it was Mrs. Ning Guogong who went to find the emperor herself and said...then...the emperor...has agreed..."

  Hearing this, Rong Yan laughed back angrily:

"Mrs. Ningguo? That old widow is really ashamed to ask the emperor so many demands! Since they are so unscrupulous, don't blame me for being cruel! You go and send a letter to Chang Zhen, just say...just say that this lady has another I gave her a good idea! Ask her to find some time to go to the restaurant where we met for the first time!"
