Wei Ruixuan, study room.

Meng Jinyao rarely set foot in the study room. She had nothing to do today and was a little bored, so she went into the study room to find a book to read and kill some time.

Wei Ruixuan's study room is much smaller than the study room in the front yard, and there are not as many books as in the study room in the front yard, but she can still find a travel journal that she can read.

After a long time, Qingqiu pushed the door in and closed the door again. He saw her sitting in front of the desk reading a book. He moved to her side and whispered: "Madam, there is new news from the Yongchang Mansion."

Meng Jinyao didn't raise her head or look away from the book, and asked casually: "How is it?"

Qingqiu replied: "Ms. Sun was in a daze yesterday in broad daylight. She saw a maid who looked similar to your mother's back. She was so frightened that she suddenly screamed. Later, she ordered that the maid be transferred to be a bathing maid and was not allowed to appear in her presence. before."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao paused while turning over the book, chuckled, and joked: "People who have done bad things turn out to be so afraid of ghosts."

"They say that if you don't do bad things at ordinary times, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. If you do too many bad things, you will be scared during the day. The more you think about it, the more scared you will be." Qingqiu said, with an intriguing smile, "Madam, Today, Mrs. Sun also went to the Rebirth Hall of Lingyun Temple."

Meng Jinyao's expression paused, then she smiled mockingly. Her mother's tablet is enshrined in the Rebirth Hall of Lingyun Temple. Is Mrs. Sun too frightened and wants to go to her mother's tablet to repent and beg for mercy? I've done everything I shouldn't have done, and it's too late to repent now.

After a moment, she asked again: "By the way, did she alert the rest of the family when she saw the maid screaming in terror yesterday?"

Qingqiu replied: "Only the second girl knows, but the second girl didn't think much about it. She just thought that she didn't have a good rest and had a bad temper. She didn't think much about it. After all, she has been a little bad-tempered recently."

Meng Jinyao sounded regretful: "That's really a pity."

Qingqiu said with relief: "Madam, no matter how tightly she covers her body, so what? After all, paper cannot keep the fire away. She is like a frightened bird right now. She is suffering every day and will be exposed sooner or later."

Meng Jinyao twitched her lips and said calmly: "Tell Aunt Qiao to continue to act according to the original plan, and blow some wind in Mrs. Sun's ear if necessary. I will see a satisfactory result that day."

Qingqiu responded.

Shou'an Hall.

Now on the eighth day of August, Qiuwei starts from the ninth day of August. There are three exams in total. The ninth day is the first, the twelfth is the second, and the fifteenth is the third.

Tomorrow is Qiuwei. There are three children in the family attending. The elders are very nervous, but they show a calm look to prevent the younger generation from becoming nervous too.

The three brothers Gu Jingxi were going to go on duty. Although the eldest brother Gu Jingsheng had only a casual position, he had to go to Yingmao. The three brothers went to go on duty after paying their respects to the old lady, leaving the female family members and other juniors in Shou'an Hall.

Mrs. Gu said a few words of encouragement to her three grandsons, and asked them not to feel any pressure. They were still young and should just treat it as gaining experience.

Gu Xiuyuan, Gu Xiuhong, and Gu Xiuming all agreed one by one, but the three brothers had different expressions. Gu Xiuyuan looked a bit nervous, Gu Xiuhong looked calm, as if he didn't take Qiu Wei seriously, and just focused on participating, while Gu Xiuming He is the only one among the three who is confident.

Meng Jinyao's eyes swept across the faces of the three brothers, and finally fell on Gu Xiuming's face. Seeing the confidence in his brows, she couldn't help but wonder where he got his confidence. Gu Xiuhong, the best among the brothers, did not have such confidence. confidence.

As she spoke, Mrs. Gu turned her attention to Mrs. Zhang again and said, "Boss, in addition to Xiu Yuan's participation in Qiu Wei, Xuan Yi's wedding is approaching. There is only half a month left, so you must be prepared."

Mrs. Zhang replied warmly: "Don't worry, mother, everything is being prepared, and the second and third younger siblings are also helping with the preparations."

Mrs. Gu nodded: "That's good. The guest list for the banquet must be checked again and again. Don't make any omissions, otherwise it will cause an unpleasant scene."

Mrs. Zhang responded: "Yes, mother."

After coming out of Shou'antang, Meng Jinyao followed Mrs. Zhang to help. In recent days, she has been helping Mrs. Zhang. It doesn't matter if she helps. Anyway, she has no experience, so it is just an opportunity to learn. Otherwise, it will be her turn when the family is separated in the future. She was afraid she would be in a hurry to handle this kind of thing alone.

Mrs. Zhang was aware of Gu Jingxi's and Mrs. Gu's attitude towards Meng Jinyao, and did not dare to be perfunctory, lest they would be unhappy, so when Meng Jinyao asked for advice humbly, she would teach her seriously.

Not to be outdone, Mrs. Chen would give Meng Jinyao a few words of advice.

Therefore, the three sisters-in-law get along quite harmoniously.

Mrs. Zhang handed the guest list to Meng Jinyao and said warmly: "By the way, third brother and sister, take a good look at this list and familiarize yourself with the relatives and friends of the Gu family. The ones at the top of the list are those who are good friends with the Gu family, and Among the relatives of the Gu family, the ones in the middle of the list are all relatively close, and the ones at the end are all distant relatives who can be invited or not, but because of their past friendship, they are all invited to such a happy event as their daughter's wedding."

Meng Jinyao took the list and planned to take it back later for a closer look.

Mrs. Zhang sighed several times.

Meng Jinyao heard her sigh and asked, "Sister-in-law, is there something on your mind?"

Mrs. Zhang was filled with melancholy: "Xuan Yi has such a temperament, I don't know how bad it will be to marry into Wu Anbo's house, but she is not so heartless that she is so happy about it."

Now that things have come to an end, the wedding date has been set. It is a sure thing. If nothing unexpected happens, they will get married on the 25th of this month. Meng Jinyao didn’t know what to say, so she could only comfort her and said: "Sister-in-law, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Uncle Wu An The family environment in the mansion is a bit complicated, but with the Changxing Marquis Mansion as their backer, they don’t dare to blatantly bully Xuan Yi.”

Mrs. Chen on the side rarely taunted Mrs. Zhang at this moment, and then comforted her: "Sister-in-law, the third brother and sister are right. They don't dare to blatantly bully the girls of the Changxing Marquis Mansion, so don't worry. Even if Xuan Yi marries her, she will suffer a loss. So what? Every time you take a step, you will gain wisdom, and you will make progress slowly."

Mrs. Chen said and changed the subject: "Xuan Yi's wedding is still half a month away. Don't worry yet. It's autumn tomorrow. Why don't you stay close to Xiu Yuan first? Xiu Yuan's wife is pregnant and she fell down two days ago. I fell down and my fetus was loose, and I am now resting in bed. Xiuyuan’s wife cannot prepare the things that Xiuyuan needs to prepare for entering the examination room herself, so my sister-in-law will prepare them for Xiuyuan first.”

As soon as Mrs. Zhang heard this, her attention was diverted and she said: "Thanks to the reminder from my second brother and sister, I almost forgot about this. I will go and prepare things for Xiu Yuan to bring into the examination room tomorrow, so I'll excuse you now. "

Mrs. Chen replied: "Sister-in-law, go ahead. I have to prepare for Xiu Hong."

The two sisters-in-law had left, and Meng Jinyao went directly back to Wei Ruixuan. As for being a loving mother and preparing things for Gu Xiuming, she was not interested. Even if she prepared them, Gu Xiuming would not dare to use them.

She took out the guest list and read it carefully.

When she saw Yongchang's house, her parents' house, she half-narrowed her eyes. Some things still needed to be postponed. She had to let Mrs. Sun spend a few days of peace first. On other people's happy days, Mrs. Sun couldn't be left alone. Be careful of something bad happening.
