It’s great to be reborn and marry your brother, but your ex-husband cried and called you sister-in-l

There used to be no women in the Hou Mansion, so there were no rules or regulations for women in the back house.

If he really followed the rules of the Hou Mansion, then Gu Ruanruan would be punished today.

But the old housekeeper heard clearly that the Marquis said he would be punished, and that it could not be easily dismissed.

But Gu Ruanruan was humiliated in public like this today, and because of Xiao Yanlin's warning, he didn't resist at all and followed the old housekeeper and left the main hall.

After a while, Gu Ruanruan was taken by the old housekeeper to the ancestral hall in the backyard of the Hou Mansion.

Gu Ruanruan looked at the ancestral hall in front of him and felt temporarily relieved.

When the imperial edict granted marriage, she had seen Xiao Yanlin punish Xiao Ruoyun with such a thick red sandalwood board and hit her whenever he wanted. Looking at it now, her punishment should be the same as when she was in the prime minister's house, which was nothing more than kneeling and copying sutras. Books and the like.

Gu Ruanruan wanted to give in, so he lowered his head and walked to the ancestral hall, not expecting to be stopped outside the door by the old housekeeper.

"Aunt Gu, you are not marrying a matchmaker. When you get married, you won't be able to enter the family tree of the Hou Mansion. You won't be able to enter the ancestral graves of the Hou Mansion a hundred years later. This ancestral hall... you and I can't enter either."

Gu Ruanruan was so ashamed and angry that even a servant wanted to humiliate her in a different way?

Seeing Gu Ruanruan's expression was different, the old housekeeper didn't even raise his eyebrows, and said in a calm tone: "I brought Aunt Gu here because the back house of the Hou Mansion used to be clean and there was no way to deal with my aunt. Now the Hou Mansion Now that I have my wife, I will wait here with my aunt for my wife's fate."

Gu Ruanruan's hands were knitted tightly under her sleeves. The majestic Marquis Mansion Ancestral Hall stood in front of her. The old housekeeper beside her looked indifferent, and her humiliation today was not over yet.

Gu Ruanruan felt that her eyes were going dark. If it were any other day, she would have had to argue with the old housekeeper. However, at this moment, she gritted her teeth and swallowed, and even her mouth was filled with blood from the extreme endurance. .

Seeing her like this, the old housekeeper had no expression on his face, but he felt a little disdain for this concubine in his heart.

Before Gu Baiyu came, the old housekeeper managed the servants in the house and was very well-informed. Xiao Ruoyun did not touch Gu Ruanruan last night, and Gu Ruanruan pretended to change the blood-stained sheets today. He knew everything.

How tough did he think this unusual Aunt Gu was to resort to such tactics? It was nothing more than that.

The two of them had their own thoughts, and the person who should really give the order and decide how to deal with Gu Ruanruan was being "bullied" by Xiao Yanlin at the moment.

"Lighter...lighter..."

"how about this?"

"Again, be gentler..."

"...squeamish."

"Well, this is it, so sour..."

Outside the house, Lingyu blushed. From the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of an unfamiliar maid standing on the other side, but suddenly she noticed a flash of disgust and contempt in her eyes.

Lingyu was stunned for a moment. From the moment she entered the Hou Mansion, everyone was very respectful to Gu Baiyu. This was the first time she saw such malicious eyes.

Although the other party concealed it quickly, Lingyu was sure that the emotion in the other party's eyes just now was indeed contempt and disgust.

Before Lingyu could think about it, Xiao Yanlin's voice came from inside the room, "Go to the kitchen and bring the medicine."

Lingyu was slightly surprised, thought for a moment, and asked, "Master Marquis, do you want hot water?"

This time it was Gu Baiyu's voice, which was a little hoarse: "No hot water, Lingyu comes in first."

Lingyu walked in cautiously, keeping her head low and not daring to look around. Gu Baiyu's voice came from above her head: "Come here and dress me up."

Lingyu raised her head and saw that Gu Baiyu was neatly dressed. Xiao Yanlin's clothes on the side were not messy at all, only Gu Baiyu's hair was slightly messy.

Facing the surprise that flashed across Lingyu's face, Gu Baiyu quickly knew what the girl was thinking, and a faint blush flashed on her face: "My back is a little sore, Mr. Hou, please massage it for me, what are you thinking about?" ?”

Oops, misunderstood!

Lingyu hurriedly went to help her, thinking that your voice was so nice that it would be difficult not to make people think too much.

But with quick movements, he helped Gu Baiyu to the dressing table and stuffed a soft pillow behind the chair.

Gu Baiyu felt that her back was sore when she got up early today. After sitting in the main hall for so long, she felt that her back was even more sore when she came back. Xiao Yanlin pressed the button for her.

Seeing Lingyu busy combing Gu Baiyu's hair, Xiao Yanlin said outside the house: "Shuang Hong, go to the kitchen to get medicine."

Lingyu made a move and found out that the maid's name was Shuanghong.

Gu Baiyu also heard this strange name. Previously, the main courtyard was filled with servants. Suddenly, when he heard the name of a maid, Gu Baiyu paid attention for a moment, but she did not ask any more questions.

After a while, Gu Baiyu combed her hair again, and the maid named Shuanghong also brought a bowl of dark medicine.

Lingyu looked at the dark concoction. Although she had doubts in her heart, she couldn't ask questions, so she could only look at Gu Baiyu.

However, Gu Baiyu looked indifferent, took the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp. However, he frowned slightly after drinking, probably because of the severe pain.

Before Lingyu could find something sweet, Xiao Yanlin conjured up a piece of candied fruit from nowhere, and it didn't reach Gu Baiyu's mouth.

Gu Baiyu looked up at him with the candied fruit in his mouth. The candied fruit was a bit big. Gu Baiyu's mouth was so bitter that he didn't chew it. He put it aside and shouted, with a small bump on his cheek, like a little squirrel stuffed with nuts.

Xiao Yanlin saw it interestingly, and by some strange coincidence he took out another piece: "Do you want more?"

Gu Baiyu blinked, his mouth was slurred, and his hand moved forward first: "I want it."

After saying that, he eagerly took the candied fruit in his hand.

"Why, you are not allowed to eat sweets in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

When Gu Baiyu had something in his mouth, Lingyu explained: "Madam loved to eat sweets when she was a child, and she often had toothaches, so the old lady was very controlling."

Xiao Yanlin nodded, looked at the clean medicine bowl on the side, and asked: "How dare you drink it without asking me what kind of medicine this is?

Gu Baiyu had finished eating the candied fruit in his mouth, and after savoring the sweet taste in his mouth, he said: "The Marquis will never feed me poison."

Xiao Yanlin conjured another piece of candied fruit from his hand and fed it to her mouth: "Call me husband."

He gently twirled his fingers, which seemed to still have the touch of the soft lips he had just touched, "Aren't you afraid that I will feed you a bowl of Bizi soup on the first day of your wedding?"

These words hit Lingyu's heart. What good medicine could be found on the second day of the wedding? Rich families are very particular about giving medicine on their wedding day unless they are seriously ill. They are afraid that drinking it will spoil the happiness. Unless they don't want their wife to get pregnant, they will give them a bowl of birth control pills.

Gu Baiyu remained calm and ate the candied fruit in her hand. She couldn't bear to eat the last one too quickly, so she held it in her mouth, and her voice was endearingly vague: "No, old housekeeper." It is said that the Marquis is anxious to spread his branches and leaves."

The subtext is that you are not young anymore and it is you who should be anxious.

Xiao Yanlin really couldn't hold it back, and regardless of Lingyu's presence, he reached out and stroked the top of her hair: "It's a tonic. You are a little thinner and still delicate. Take the medicine well, my child... don't be anxious, just let it go."

Lingyu breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that Mr. Hou was not that kind of person.

Gu Baiyu felt very comfortable being touched and squinted her eyes slightly. She liked the calmness and thoughtfulness of Xiao Yanlin who was a few years older than her. Even this kind of caress similar to that of an elder felt very comfortable.

However, the sound of broken porcelain pieces suddenly came from the room. Gu Baiyu opened his eyes and saw Shuanghong kneeling down to admit her mistake: "Master Marquis, please calm down. I know my mistake and accidentally broke the medicine bowl."
