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

Xiao Yanlin still didn't answer Gu Baiyu's question until he got on the carriage back to the Hou Mansion.

Gu Baiyu seemed very troubled and frowned all the way.

When they arrived at the Hou Mansion and got out of the car, Xiao Yanlin quickly gave him a hand because of his eyesight. Otherwise, Gu Baiyu would have fallen down just now because he was too absorbed in thinking.

Xiao Yanlin looked at Gu Baiyu who looked troubled and sighed.

"Of course you are different from him. You are more important than him."

"What, what?"

Gu Baiyu seemed very surprised when he heard this answer.

Yes, surprised.

Daye regards filial piety as the first of all virtues, and after a woman gets married, she follows her husband. Naturally, in the husband's heart, the elders come first, then the siblings, then the children, and finally the wife;

The situation in the Hou Mansion is even more special. It can be said that Xiao Ruoyun is Xiao Yanlin's only relative in the world.

This is why, no matter how much Gu Baiyu resented Xiao Ruoyun's incompetence and cowardice in her previous life, she still did not really hurt Xiao Ruoyun. She was not afraid of Xiao Yanlin's blame, but she was afraid that Xiao Yanlin would be sad because her brother was injured.

But what does she hear now?

Xiao Yanlin said, she is more important than Xiao Ruoyun?

Xiao Yanlin thought she didn't understand, and explained patiently: "In a person's life, parents will grow old, brothers and sisters will have their own family businesses, and children and grandchildren will also have their own places to go. Only a husband and wife can get married and make a vow. , I will always be by your side for decades to come.”

He raised his hand and caressed Gu Baiyu's side cheek: "You are the only one who shared my head with me when I was alive and the one who shares my cave with me after death. In the first thirty years of my life, I made great achievements, raised my young brother, and lived in the world. In the next few decades, I just want to be with you."

Xiao Yanlin spoke very slowly and seriously. Gu Baiyu was deeply attracted by his words and could hardly look away from his face.

Who said that the Marquis of Zhenbei was unsmiling and not good at speaking?

Such heartfelt words are simply more touching than any words of love at this time.

How could such a man not make her fall in love?

"Okay, I've recovered."

Xiao Yanlin reached out and pinched Gu Baiyu's cheek. It was soft and felt good.

"Don't worry, you won't be in a dilemma. My father-in-law understands people, whether they are in the world or an official in the government, he has great wisdom, and I share the same goal with him. Madam, don't worry, even if something happens to you one day Madam doesn’t have to make any choices when it comes to difficult things, I have the ability to protect Madam and your family.”

Gu Baiyu was speechless, what great wisdom?

She only knew that those who were officials in the court and had suffered losses at the hands of her father all accused Prime Minister Gu of being cunning and cunning.

But having said that, Gu Baiyu was still very moved.

Xiao Yanlin's tolerance prevented her from falling into a dilemma, and Xiao Yanlin's strength could protect her and her family.

She married a good husband.

The two stood at the door of the Hou Mansion for a long time. The old housekeeper saw them from a distance, but saw that the two seemed to have something to say, so he did not come forward to disturb them.

At this moment, seeing that the two of them had almost finished talking, they came forward and said, "Madam, the Marquis is back."

Gu Baiyu nodded and entered the Hou Mansion with Xiao Yanlin.

Glancing at the old housekeeper from the corner of his eye, Gu Baiyu suddenly remembered something.

On the second day after the wedding, the old housekeeper saw her and Xiao Yanlin appearing together. When he addressed her, he put her title first, "Madam, Lord Marquis".

At that time, she was quite surprised, thinking that the old housekeeper was an old man of the Hou Mansion and should not make such a mistake. How could he go beyond the master and address her in front?

But Xiao Yanlin didn't say anything at that time, and even smiled.

Now that I think about it, Xiao Yanlin's connivance towards her and her position in Xiao Yanlin's heart have been extraordinary since then. She was too slow to see through it today.

However, who would have thought that someone would really put their wife in such an important position in their life?

Even she herself still feels drifting, as if she is dreaming.

She was thinking too much. After she separated from Xiao Yanlin in the corridor, she was taken back to the room by Lingyu.

After a cup of tea, I came back to my senses and immediately felt a little annoyed.

Why does she look like she has never seen the world!

You will definitely make the Marquis laugh!

And there was one more thing she forgot to ask!

Gu Baiyu's buttocks were still hot, and he chased to the study in a hurry.

"Master Marquis, do you need to prepare in advance for the second master's matter, just in case you really get into trouble with the Holy Emperor..."

Gu Baiyu's words were stuck in his throat.

In the study, Xiao Yanlin stood next to two lieutenants. Gu Baiyu had seen both of them. When she went to the military camp to propose marriage, they were two of the three.

Seeing this, Gu Baiyu thought they were discussing business, and immediately saluted and wanted to leave: "Master Marquis, I'll be busy first, I'll come back later."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yanlin waved to her: "It's okay, just come over and get acquainted."

Xiao Yanlin introduced: "These two are my deputy generals, Ren Qing, Chang Zhinian."

The two lieutenants naturally knew Gu Baiyu and immediately saluted Gu Baiyu.

Gu Baiyu was also very polite and smiled: "Two generals, long time no see."

One of them is fat and the other is thin, but they are both very tall. The thin one is full of bookishness. He is a Confucian general and the think tank of Xiao Yanlin's deputy general, Ren Qing;

The sturdy one is even more eye-catching. He is estimated to weigh more than 200 kilograms, and his voice is as loud as a bell or a drum. He is the number one vanguard in Xiao Yanlin's army, Chang Zhi Nian.

"Hello, Madam! When we said goodbye last time, we were all waiting to drink the wedding wine of the Marquis and the Madam. Unfortunately, the Marquis was not loyal and ran to the bridal chamber before dark on the day of the wedding. I will definitely drink him a meal if I have the opportunity in the future. , Madam, please don’t blame me when you arrive!”

The speaker was Chang Zhinian, with a loud voice.

Gu Baiyu liked his bold personality and immediately said: "How could it be possible? I will pour some wine for you all, and you won't come home until you're drunk!"

"Okay!" Chang Zhinian laughed: "Let me just say that my wife is suitable for the Hou Mansion, right? My wife is dignified, but also cheerful!"

After saying that, he obviously admired Gu Baiyu very much. He turned to Xiao Yanlin and said, "Master Marquis, calling me madam is too unfamiliar. How about calling me sister-in-law?"

On the side, Ren Qing, who has always been calm, also nodded: "Good idea."

Seeing that his dead brothers liked Gu Baiyu so much, Xiao Yanlin felt very happy and nodded in agreement.

Then, he said to the two of them: "Continue."

It was obvious that they were talking about other things before and did not treat Gu Baiyu as an outsider, so there was no need to avoid it.

Gu Baiyu didn't hesitate and listened quietly.

It turned out that Xiao Yanlin had already made arrangements for Xiao Ruoyun and the Ministry of Industry, and called Chang Zhinian and Ren Qing here just for this matter.

Judging from the timing of their arrival, they must have asked the secret guard to notify them while they were still out shopping with her.

At this time, Xiao Yanlin was arranging for them to ask his trustworthy people to go to the northwest to investigate. It would be best to catch some officials involved in the matter. If Xiao Ruoyun really chooses to expose this matter and is targeted in the future, they will not As for being caught off guard;

There is also evidence of bribery and bribery by members of the Northwest Officials' Collaboration Department, which must be obtained, lest Xiao Ruoyun be beaten down and accused of being a slanderer.

Xiao Yanlin's thinking was clear and organized, and he continued to give instructions one by one. The two lieutenants put forward some ideas from time to time, and the three of them discussed it again.

By the time the arrangements were almost made, it was already half an hour later.

Because this matter was of great importance, Gu Baiyu did not let his servants come in to serve him during this period, but instead poured tea for the three of them himself.

After they finished chatting, Xiao Yanlin drank the remaining tea in the cup and turned his eyes to Gu Baiyu: "Seeing that Madam was worried about this matter before, but now that the arrangements are in place, what do Madam think, is there anything else to worry about?"

Gu Baiyu didn't expect that Xiao Yanlin would ask herself this question, so she shook her head: "The Marquis has arranged it very well. There is no need to ask my wife, the wife of the back house, for my opinion on these matters."

Xiao Yanlin smiled and did not shy away from others. He took her hand and sat down: "You are worried about your younger brother for the sake of the Hou Mansion. You are also afraid that I will be implicated, and you are even more afraid that Xiao Ruoyun will get into trouble. Madam has thought a lot about me, so naturally she wants to ask Ask Madam what she means. Ruoyun, he should accept your favor."

Gu Baiyu was praised in front of outsiders, and she looked a little embarrassed and took her hand out: "Master Hou, let's talk about these things later..."

She stood up and said, "The Marquis may have other matters to discuss with the two generals. I will go and order the kitchen to prepare some food. Let's have a banquet at home today."

After speaking, get up and leave.

Behind him, a voice that Chang Zhinian thought he had suppressed, but which could actually be heard outside the door, came: "Sister-in-law, are you shy?"

Finally, he loudly said to the door: "Sister-in-law, prepare more wine. Today I will definitely collect all the wine that the Marquis owes me on the big day..."

Gu Baiyu paused, then walked faster.
