The next day was the day when Gu Xuanling returned home.

The Gu family didn't go out today, waiting for the second girl and the second uncle to return to their parents' home.

Gu Xuanyi also came here early in the morning, even earlier than Gu Xuanling, not because she valued her cousin so much or how close her relationship was, but mainly because she wanted to see how her cousin, who was married worse than herself, was doing. , obviously you can marry into the right family, but you have to marry into a small family.

Accompanying Gu Xuanyi back was Prince Wu An, and the young couple looked very affectionate.

Mrs. Zhang felt relieved when she saw the love between their husband and wife. Although her husband's family was difficult to deal with and her mother-in-law was also difficult to take care of, it was not the most uncomfortable thing. The most uncomfortable thing was the disharmony between the couple. As long as the couple was harmonious, she could always get some comfort in her heart.

Gu Xuanyi exchanged greetings with her elders. Seeing that her cousin and brother-in-law hadn't come yet, she casually said, "Why haven't the second sister and the second brother-in-law arrived yet?"

As soon as she finished speaking, a maid came in and reported: "Old madam, the second young lady and the second uncle are here."

Mrs. Gu said kindly, "Go quickly and invite the second young lady and the second uncle in."

Gu Xuanyi looked towards the door, with a hint of theater in her eyes. She wanted to see how her cousin, who was married to a small family, and her brother-in-law, who was born in a small family, were doing.

After a while, Gu Xuanling and her husband Liu Zifang appeared in everyone's sight.

I saw Gu Xuan's face was rosy, she was smiling, her brows were filled with joy, and she walked in side by side with Liu Zifang with a shy face. It was obvious from a glance that she was doing well after her marriage.

Seeing this, Gu Xuanyi's smile visibly stiffened. The feeling of not succeeding in seeing the joke made her feel subtle and a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Although Liu Zifang was not from a high background, he did not have stage fright when facing the elders of the Gu family. Along with Gu Xuanling, he greeted the elders and said hello to his peers in a neither humble nor overbearing manner. The young couple were both talented and good-looking, and seemed to be a perfect match.

Mrs. Gu was also quite satisfied with her grandson-in-law. As the only son in the family, Liu Zifang was not spoiled and was a young man with excellent morals and academics. It can be seen when Xuan Ling returns home today. Xuan Ling has not been wronged when she married, and her life is better than Xuan Yi who married Wu'an Bo's son. Whether you are marrying a man or a wife, you can't just look at family status. Xuan Yi will be willful If you don't listen to the advice, you will have to bear the consequences yourself.

After some small talk, the three Gu Jingxi brothers left one after another. As the elder brother, Gu Xiuyuan and his brothers went to greet the two brothers-in-law, and went elsewhere with the two brothers-in-law. After all, they were men, and they didn't have much to talk about when they stayed with their female relatives.

After they left, Mrs. Chen asked with concern: "Xuan Ling, how are you doing in the Liu family? Have you ever been wronged?"

Gu Xuanling shook her head gently: "Don't worry, mother, my daughter is fine. She has not been wronged. My father-in-law and mother-in-law treat me very lovingly."

Mrs. Chen asked again: "How does my uncle treat you?"

Hearing this, Gu Xuanling lowered her head shyly, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but raise, and softly replied: "My husband treats me very well."

"Then the Liu family has any rules for you?"

This question was asked by Gu Xuanyi, with a hint of urgency in her tone. She looked at Gu Xuanling momentarily, as if she wanted to see the frustrated expression on Gu Xuanling's face, so as to gain spiritual comfort.

Mrs. Zhang also looked at Gu Xuanling. Her daughter had cried to her twice because her mother-in-law set the rules for morning and evening every day. She could only comfort her daughter by saying that new wives basically need to be set by their mother-in-law. Now she hopes that Xuan Ling will also be disciplined, like her daughter, to take care of her mother-in-law every morning and evening, so that her daughter's mentality will be much more balanced.

Unexpectedly, when Gu Xuanling heard this, she first glanced at her cousin blankly, not understanding why her cousin would ask such a question, and then replied truthfully: "No, after I served tea yesterday, my mother-in-law told me about the Gu family None of them have such rules, my grandmother didn’t set any rules for the three daughters-in-law, and the Liu family certainly doesn’t have any.”

Gu Xuanyi: "???"

She looked at her cousin in disbelief. When she saw that she didn't seem to be lying, her heart was instantly hit. She was set by her husband's family and had to get up early every morning to serve her mother-in-law, regardless of rain or shine, to dress, wash and have breakfast. , but the cousin doesn’t use it? Why?

Mrs. Zhang was surprised when she heard this, and turned to look at her daughter with worried eyes. At the same time, she felt sorry for her daughter's experience. After other people's daughters got married, they were held in the palm of their husband's family. Her daughter When you arrive at your husband's house, you will be punished.

Seeing that her daughter's face was frozen and she didn't reply, Ms. Zhang took over the conversation to ease the embarrassment: "Last time I saw Mrs. Liu, I thought she was easy to get along with. I didn't expect that it would actually be the same. Xuan Ling is so lucky."

Gu Xuanling lowered her head, smiled shyly, and blushed on her cheeks.

She also felt that she was lucky. She was originally worried that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would be difficult to deal with, but her mother-in-law treated her tenderly and lovingly, her father-in-law was an enlightened elder, and her husband loved her very much.

She is actually happier than the concubines of many other families. Her aunt has never treated her badly. Her aunt also carefully selected her marriage. She considered all aspects and chose a suitable in-law's family for her, both before and after marriage. , she is happy.

The only bad thing is that she has been bullied by her cousin for more than ten years. Her father does not care about the affairs of the inner house. Although her aunt does not treat her badly, she is not her biological mother after all. She does not dare to go to her aunt for such trivial matters between sisters. Complain. But now that she is married, she is not in the same family, and her cousin cannot bully her.

Mrs. Chen raised a smile and said warmly: "Everyone is blessed. Your Xuan Yi is also a blessed child. Mrs. Wu Anbo is also very kind. She must treat Xuan Yi very well, and my eldest uncle is also a talented person. They match Xuan Yi very well, they look like a golden boy and a beautiful girl, they are a joy to watch."

Zhang was choked by these words: "..."

If her daughter was lucky, she wouldn't cry to her.

Gu Xuanyi was speechless: "..."

Suddenly, I felt like a mute eating Coptis chinensis and feeling indescribable pain. Her mother-in-law was not kind. She just set rules and teased her on other small things. For example, if she wanted to eat walnuts, she would let her peel them. There was obviously a maid there. When he asked her to peel the walnuts, her fingers were red, swollen and painful.

Mrs. Chen glanced at Zhang and her daughter lightly. Seeing that Zhang and her daughter were embarrassed, her smile deepened. She could guess what Zhang and her daughter were thinking just now. They just wanted to see that Xuan Ling was not doing well. Then Looking for some psychological comfort, Xuan Ling's answer obviously shocked the mother and daughter.

If you ask her, mother and daughter Zhang are not very smart, they can think of it with their toes. Although Xuan Ling is a commoner, she was born in the Changxing Marquis Mansion and is more than worthy of Liu Zifang, the son of the eighth-grade Imperial Prince Jiancheng. And with the Changxing Marquis Mansion as their backer, how could Liu Zifang's parents dare to put their elders' names in front of Xuan Ling?

Even if the family is separated, their second wife still has a second master. The second master is a fifth-grade doctor in the Ministry of Etiquette, and has a higher family status than the Liu family. If Xiuhong becomes a Jinshi next spring, the second wife will be even more prosperous.

She was a little dissatisfied with the dirty thoughts of the Zhang family and her daughter, so she changed the subject without leaving any trace, and continued to irritate the mother and daughter by talking about another thing: "Xuan Ling, are you ready to participate in next year's Spring Festival?"
