The next day, Gu Ning received an invitation from the Song family.

She looked at the tactful but somewhat flying handwriting on it, and she was a little strange: "Why do I feel that Miss Song is a little different?"

Chunyu shook her head: "I haven't heard anything from this servant girl."

Gu Ning propped his chin, thought carefully for a while, and decided to go to Song's house.

I don't know if it was her illusion, but Song Shuqing's various performances made her feel familiar.

Knowing that Gu Ning was going to Song's house, Pei Chongfang laughed out loud. Regardless of Pei Jingyuan's glaring gaze, he leaned on the pillar and said slowly, "Isn't it? Are you going to replace the eldest brother and sister-in-law?"

Gu Ning rolled his eyes, but Pei Jingyuan slapped him without her moving, which was enough to make Pei Chongfang scream.

"Brother! You are murdering your own brother!"

"Stop talking nonsense, I can bear you for a while." Pei Jingyuan said angrily, "Song Shuqing is a bit strange. She said a few strange things to me in the jewelry store yesterday."

Gu Ning thumped in his heart, and was about to ask, but Pei Jingyuan obviously didn't take this matter to heart. After speaking, he told Gu Ning to be careful on the road.

In order not to arouse his suspicion, Gu Ning could only nod his head, and obediently got on the carriage to Song's house.

The Song family, with the arrival of more and more noble ladies, the deserted house suddenly became lively.

Song Shuqing has been talking with the people around her, but her eyes are fixed on the door, wanting to see the figure she was looking forward to walk in.

"Miss Song is not quite right these days. I see her out of her mind."

"The Song family is discussing marriage with the Xu family."

"The Xu family? The Xu family doesn't have a son of the right age...could it be General Xu!"

There are no secrets in the capital. The contact between Song Shangshu and General Xu has long been seen by interested people. Song Shuqing, as a famous and famous girl in the capital, is going to marry a bad old man as a sequel. No matter how you look at it, it is Song Shangshu. frenzied.

Those who originally wanted to see Song Shuqing's jokes suddenly remembered something, even the eldest daughter of the Song family would be exchanged as an object, so what about their family backgrounds that are not as good as hers?

Some people shuddered quickly, looking at Song Shuqing's eyes from gloating to pity.

"Who wants to marry a bad old man! That's dozens of years older!"

"I heard that Ms. Song was chatting and laughing with Mr. Pei not long ago. Today she invited the county magistrate of Changning to come. I'm afraid she intends to get Mr. Pei through the magistrate of Changning."

"The princess of Changning County has a bad temper. Even the princesses are afraid of her. Miss Song is really courageous."

Song Shuqing naturally felt the strange gazes from everyone, but she didn't care about these people at all.

For her, the most urgent task now is to marry Pei Jingyuan and change her fate of marrying into the Xu family.

Thinking of this, she clenched her hands tightly again, and kept looking outside the door.

At this moment, the figure she had been looking forward to for a long time finally appeared in front of her.

"See the county magistrate!"

Song Shuqing leaned towards Gu Ning, with an uncontrollable excitement in her voice.

Seeing her being so attentive, Gu Ning exchanged a glance with Chunyu imperceptibly.

The phrase "to be courteous if you have nothing to do is to rape or steal" is deeply imprinted in Gu Ning's mind.

Could it be that she really wanted to be her sister-in-law?

The Song family wanted to get married just now, so why did they want to marry the Pei family?What are they planning?

Gu Ning muttered in her heart, but in the eyes of others, she hadn't responded to Song Shuqing yet, that means she didn't want to talk to Song Shuqing anymore, and many people gloated.

"County Lord, I..." Seeing Gu Ning's indifferent attitude, Song Shuqing trembled a little in her heart, but soon, she forced a smile again.

Gu Ning was invited by her, and she also really wanted to make friends with Gu Ning, so naturally she couldn't give up just because of this little setback.

When she thought of marrying an old and ugly man, she mustered up her courage under Gu Ning's cold gaze: "I have something to say to the county lord in private."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Ning felt another thump in his heart.

But there were quite a lot of people around, and Gu Ning didn't want to be someone else's ornamental monkey. She nodded slightly, and followed Song Shuqing to the gazebo in the backyard.

The people here were dismissed by Song Shuqing long ago, she said a little excitedly: "I invited the county magistrate here today to prepare a gift for you."

Gu Ning blinked in astonishment, but Song Shuqing had already taken out the jade box that had been hidden in her sleeve.

The jade box is warm and moist, and it is very valuable. It can only be used as a vessel with higher value.

Thinking of this, Gu Ning hesitated.

But soon, the excited voice of the system popped out in her mind.

"No phase strange ginseng!"

The system's words made Gu Ning stand in place in shock. She looked at Song Shuqing and was puzzled. How could Song Shuqing give her such a precious thing?

Could it be that old fox Song Shangshu meant?

Before Gu Ning could think about it, Song Shuqing said something that surprised her: "This is a miracle medicine that can heal Princess Anyang, take it back and give it to Princess Anyang, and she will recover naturally."

"Do you know what you're talking about?" Gu Ning took a while to find his voice.

Song Shuqing lowered her head and nervously clasped her hands: "I'm giving you the Phaseless Ginseng, but I just want you to say a word to the Eldest Princess for me."

"Can the medicine that can save Princess Anyang change my marriage with Mr. Pei?"

Like big cousin so much?She didn't see it before!

Although Pei Jingyuan's family background and appearance are the best among the young masters of the family, he has a bad temper and shows his face darkly all day long. Very few noble women dare to speak out about their feelings.

And Song Shuqing blushed as soon as she said this sentence, she was obviously not a carefree woman, she did it because she really liked it?

"Whether you agree or not is an accurate statement!" Song Shuqing was anxious, her eyes were red, "Is the life of Princess Anyang less important than a marriage?"

Gu Ning stretched out his finger and waved it in front of Song Shuqing: "My mother's life is important, but you can't exchange the lives of the whole Pei family, Miss Song, don't you know what it means to marry the Pei family with the Song family? "

Hearing this, Song Shuqing's face turned pale.

Of course she knew that the reason why she could only marry General Xu in her previous life was because no one dared to marry her, because as long as she married her, it meant that she belonged to the second prince's faction and completely opposed the prince's faction. At that time, the prince made outstanding contributions, and even his virtuous wife took care of many matters for him. No one dared to stand in line with the second prince.

"But..." Song Shuqing's eyes wandered, and she murmured, "But haven't your Pei family always stood up for the crown prince? Don't you hate him!"

Gu Ning raised her eyebrows, seeing Song Shuqing covering her mouth uneasily, her beautiful peach eyes narrowed slightly, and a ray of light burst out.

"This is a family matter, I can't be the master." Gu Ning waved his hand, seeing Song Shuqing's pleading eyes, she hesitated for a while, and then Song Shuqing grabbed her wrist.

Song Shuqing was pampered and not very powerful, but Gu Ning could read her pain and entanglement at the moment from her eyes.

Under Gu Ning's gaze, Song Shuqing bit her lip and whispered: "You save me! I know you will be able to save me!"

In her previous life, in her memory, Gu Ning had married Sun Yu a long time ago and became a joke in the entire capital. The Pei family was not as good as it is now, but this time when she woke up, she found that the fate of Gu Ning and the Pei family was the same as in her previous life. Very different.

And all of this changed from that day at the Gu family banquet. The person who fooled around with Sun Yu became Gu Yunwan. All these things made her feel that the Gu Ning in front of her was the same kind of person as herself.

"Don't you want to know what happened in the future?" Song Shuqing's nervous tongue was knotted, and she whispered, "You died early, so you must not know the end of the Pei family, right?"

Fortunately, it was years of acting skills that allowed Gu Ning to control the expression on her face. She frowned slightly and looked at Song Shuqing in confusion: "What are you talking about? What is the ending in the future?"

Song Shuqing's face lost all color, and she couldn't believe what Gu Ning said.

"I……"

"Miss Song, don't worry, I will tell my grandmother about today's matter, but you..." Gu Ning glanced at her up and down, and said with concern, "Why don't you invite an imperial doctor to visit, or go to the Taoist temple to pay homage."

Song Shuqing lowered her head dejectedly, and under Gu Ning's gaze, she shook her head gently: "No need, you just need to bring my words to you."

"If there's nothing else, I'll go to the front hall to eat." Gu Ning smiled at her, and walked briskly.

Song Shuqing carefully hid the jade box in her sleeve again, she closed her eyes, her lips moved: "How is it possible?"

How could Gu Ning not be his own kind?

Song Shuqing's eyes were full of sorrow, she held the jade box tightly, and looked around with her eyes, she only felt that she was in a huge vortex, even if she knew where the exit was, she couldn't break free from these obstacles.

After leaving the backyard, Chunyu, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly followed.

"My maidservant heard about it." Chunyu whispered, "Shangshu Song is discussing marriage with the Xu family, and wants to marry Miss Song to General Xu."

"General Xu?" Gu Ning's eyes were full of shock, "The Xu family only has one general, and they already have a wife and son, so she will be a concubine?"

When Chunyu mentioned this matter, she was also quite emotional: "General Xu's time to get a wife is running out. If Ms. Song marries in the past, it will be a continuation."

"Even if it is a sequel, it can't cover up the fact that General Xu is over fifty!" Gu Ning's eyes widened, "Song Shuqing is about my age, marrying General Xu? The Song family is crazy!"

"My servant also found out that Song Shangshu gave Ms. Song two choices, either to marry General Xu, or..."

"Or marry the eldest cousin, am I right?"

Gu Ning interrupted Chunyu coldly.
