It's early morning.

Meng Jinyao and Gu Jingxi had breakfast and ordered their servants to prepare a carriage to go to the Yongchang Mansion.

But they never thought that before they even left Wei Ruixuan, they would receive an uninvited guest, their eldest son.

——Gu Xiuming.

When Gu Xiuming saw them, his face lit up with joy. He first saluted as a junior, and then said, "Father, mother, my son is late. Fortunately, you haven't set off yet."

Gu Jingxi asked quietly: "What's the matter with you?"

This son gave him a lot of headaches. He used to be rude in doing things, but he could still lecture him, but now he knows how to restrain himself, and he also has the respect that a junior should have for the little girl, but he can also see that his son is not really reforming, but just trying to reestablish himself. image, regaining the attention of him and his mother, and stabilizing his position as the heir apparent.

A few days ago, he was talking about studying. Haste makes waste, but this son no longer pretended to be motivated and acted for him, and came to ask for advice every day.

It doesn't really matter to him who is the heir apparent. It doesn't matter whether he is his son or not. What matters is his character and talent, which can shoulder the burden of the entire Hou family.

He used to have high expectations for his son, but now he is so disappointed, and he also has the idea of ​​​​creating another son.

Gu Xiuming said warmly: "I heard that today is my grandfather's birthday. As a grandson, my son has to go to celebrate his birthday."

Meng Jinyao was speechless for a moment: "..."

very good!

She almost forgot about this cheap son. Because of her, her father had a cheap grandson named Gu Xiuming.

Whatever, you can follow if you want. This rebellious son is now playing the role of a filial son. I believe that this rebellious son will also play the role well today. When he returns to her parents' home, those in the Meng family will see that their mother is kind and their son is filial, which will stimulate those who want to see their mother and son fight. The people are also quite nice.

She nodded happily and said warmly: "Son, you are determined. In that case, let's go together."

Gu Xiuming responded obediently: "Okay."

Gu Jingxi glanced at the little girl and looked at the childish face that had not completely faded away. He was two months younger than his son, but he could say "Ah" in front of his son without any change of expression. This was a very cool behavior. He also admired Xiu Ming's biological mother.

The family of three went to the gate together.

On the way to the main entrance, Gu Jingxi asked, "Xiu Ming, has anyone prepared a carriage?"

Gu Xiuming replied: "Father, don't worry. When my son went to Wei Ruixuan, he had already ordered someone to prepare the carriage."

Gu Jingxi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

There were three carriages parked at the gate. Meng Jinyao and Gu Jingxi rode in one carriage, and Gu Xiuming rode alone in another carriage.

There was also a smaller, obviously much more ordinary carriage following behind. It was ridden by Qingqiu and Ningdong. With the Marquis present, they could not ride in the same carriage as the madam, so they just sat in a human carriage. Fortunately, they were madams. A personal maid, otherwise she wouldn’t be qualified to sit.

On the carriage.

Meng Jinyao said with unclear meaning: "Husband, our son is really more calm now."

Gu Jingxi turned to look at her, chuckled, and mercilessly revealed her little thoughts: "With your little tricks, you can talk to others, but if you want to talk to me, you will have to learn a few more years."

Meng Jinyao: "..."

It's quite embarrassing. Her little thoughts are not enough in front of others, and they can be seen through at a glance.

Gu Jingxi smiled and asked, "Why are you so mean-spirited at such a young age?"

Meng Jinyao curled her lips and muttered: "Old thing."

Her voice was very low, and she couldn't hear what she was saying without paying attention. However, Gu Jingxi was a person who knew martial arts, and his hearing was much more sensitive than ordinary people, so he could hear these three words clearly.

Old thing?

Are you talking about him?

When Gu Jingxi thought about his age, he felt depressed. He felt that the little girl was becoming more and more courageous. Now she dared to scold him. He suddenly glanced at the girl next to him and asked in a faint tone: "Madam, what did you say?"

When Meng Jinyao heard that the tone was not right, she immediately gave up and smiled flatteringly: "I said that my husband is indeed the minister of Dali Temple, and he knows everything very well. I just said this, and my husband has already guessed what I want to do."

Gu Jingxi asked again: "Did you just say so many words?"

Meng Jinyao choked in her heart, smiled coquettishly, raised four fingers, and explained, "I didn't say that many words just now, I only said four."

Gu Jingxi raised his eyebrows: "Which four?"

"Knowing everything clearly."

Meng Jinyao answered without thinking, her Xing'er eyes were bright and clear, and she stared at him eagerly, trying to prove the truth of what she said from the side.

Gu Jingxi then asked: "Really?"

Meng Jinyao was not straightforward but said: "That's natural. Can I still lie to you about this kind of thing?"

Gu Jingxi chuckled: "Little liar, it's obviously just three words."

As soon as these words came out, Meng Jinyao was completely mute. She felt guilty because of his eyes that seemed to be able to see everything, and her face was burning. She simply pretended not to speak, pretending that she didn't hear what he just said.

Gu Jingxi sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "Have I told you before to ask you to trust me more?"

Meng Jinyao nodded his head imperceptibly. He had said this before, but she didn't know what he meant at the moment, so she just looked at him without saying anything, waiting for his next words.

Gu Jingxi said solemnly: "Madam, even though our marriage was forced out of necessity, since I married you, I will treat you as a real wife. You don't have to beat around the bush about some things. You can make it clear to me directly. We still have decades to get along, so we can’t just beat around the bush and make insinuations all the time.”

His voice paused for a moment and then asked: "Or do you think that since we are father and son, your heart will be biased towards him? You can talk to me openly and honestly. I only stand by reason and not by anyone else."

Meng Jinyao was stunned. Seeing the man's serious yet gentle expression, her heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.

She doesn't know many men, and Gu Jingxi is the most special one. This man is really open-minded, upright and responsible, good-looking, and talented. No wonder many girls often "encountered" him when he went out when he was young. Even though Later, I got engaged to a girl from the Mei family, but the girl refused to give up.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Gu Jingxi softened his expression and asked with a smile, "Why are you mute again? What did I say wrong?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head hastily and said seriously: "No, my husband was right. I will improve this problem."

Gu Jingxi nodded with satisfaction: "Then talk to me properly."

Meng Jinyao was stunned: "?"

How to talk to him properly?

After a long while, Meng Jinyao came to realize it, showed a sudden expression, looked at him without blinking, and asked him seriously, her words were very straightforward: "Husband, our son's acting skills are getting better and better. Now, how long do you think he can play?"
