Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

With one imperial decree, the entire Bo Mansion became obedient.

Gu Chengyan was carried to the mulberry garden every day, and he and Guan Yingying stayed in the yard to recuperate; Xie Xiangxiang was looking for a concubine for Gu Chengyan, preparing to compete with Aunt Yue.

The old lady was recuperating in Ci'en Court and dared not to trouble Xie Zhaozhao again. She also understood that it was a dream to covet the dowry; if she wanted her to take care of her, she would get sicker; if she wanted to take advantage of her, the fruit was even more disgusting than shit.

For a while, no one came to Qingpuyuan to cause trouble.

Around the Lantern Festival, the court lifted the curfew, and Xie Zhaozhao and Gu Shaoyu agreed to go to the lantern festival together.

At 5 p.m., Mo Yan was watching outside the Bo's house. As soon as he saw Gu Shaoyu's carriage appear on the outer street, he immediately ran back to Qingpu Courtyard to report.

Xie Zhaozhao put on her brocade robe, cape and hood, and led Yuanyuanman to wait at the gate of the Bo's mansion.

After Gu Shaoyu left the court, Nanxing drove back in the carriage. When he saw Xie Zhaozhao waiting for him at the door, he could no longer sit in the carriage and got off immediately.

He held her hand and asked, "Why did you come out?"

Xie Zhaozhao smiled and said, "I can't wait."

With that, Gu Shaoyu tightened his grip, his eyes filled with something, he stretched out his finger and hooked it on the tip of her nose, and said softly: "Me too..."

Gu Shaoyu took Xie Zhaozhao's hand and got into his carriage. Nanxing was still driving.

Yuanyuanmanman got on the next carriage, which was driven by Moyan.

Two carriages moved slowly along the street. Xie Zhaozhao looked outside through the shadowless veil. Gu Shaoyu sat beside her, holding her hand.

The streets were bustling with people coming and going, and sedan chairs and horse-drawn carriages crisscrossing the streets.

In the streets and alleys, there are people constantly shouting to sell rouge, powder, and jewelry, as well as books and lanterns. In the pavilions in the street gardens, all kinds of lanterns are hung in a mess, and on the signs under the lanterns hang riddles to be solved.

Daqian's economy has recovered in recent years. Even though an earthquake occurred last year, Daqian is still considered prosperous, as can be seen from the bustling streets.

"A bunch of red fruit."

"Sugar ball, sugar ball!"

Looking at the two people carrying a straw stool with strings of sugar balls (tanghulu) stuck on it, Xie Zhaozhao swallowed slightly.

Gu Shaoyu immediately asked Nanxing to stop the car.

"Go, buy some strings of candy balls."

Nanxing stopped the car and bought four skewers, two for Xie Zhaozhao and two for Yuanyuanmanman.

Xie Zhaozhao looked at the small sugar ball, which was red and round, with the brown syrup spread very thinly.

She looked very greedy and took a careful bite.

It’s sour and sweet and very delicious.

At present, sugar balls are made of red fruits (hawthorn) dipped in syrup, which solidifies quickly and becomes hard and brittle in winter.

It is called candied haws, but it is not made from rock honey, it is frozen candied haws.

Xie Zhaozhao ate two of them with satisfaction, his mouth watering.

When she raised her eyes, Gu Shaoyu was looking at her. She hurriedly handed him a string of candies in her hand. Gu Shaoyu shook his head, still looking at her.

Xie Zhaozhao gave him the one she had eaten, and he ate it.

Xie Zhaozhao's eyes sparkled with a playful and joyful light, the curve of the corners of her mouth gradually widened, as if a budding flower was swaying gently in the breeze, and her teeth were neat and shiny.

Gu Shaoyu looked at her intently with deep eyes for a while, then he leaned over, wiped the corner of her mouth with his finger, scraped off a drop of sugar juice from the corner of her mouth, and put it in his own mouth.

Xie Zhaozhao said embarrassedly: "I actually got it on my face? Don't eat it, it's dirty!"

"Sweet!" Gu Shaoyu looked at his fingers, not knowing what sweetness he meant, "My fingers are very clean."

He chewed the syrup slowly in his mouth for a while, and said seriously: "Years ago, several young scholars from a certain place brought their beautiful concubines and maids to Huangjue Mountain to enjoy the snow. Two unpleasant things happened."

"We are all friends, how can we not be happy at the party?" Xie Zhaozhao replied while eating a candy ball in small bites.

"Well, it was quite unhappy."

Gu Shaoyu said that those candidates were all very young, some of them had beautiful concubines, and some of them had personal maids.

There was also a talented young man named Wu Youren, who rode a tall horse and went with his best friend's sister Sui Kou Bian.

When everyone arrived at the gathering yard on the top of the mountain, as soon as the carriages and horses stopped, everyone hurried to the toilet to open the gate and release the water, and then came back to discuss how to eat.

Everyone was tired and a little hungry after traveling all the way.

Qin, who organized the party, brought fresh snacks. When he heard everyone was hungry, he happily took a basket of snacks from the car and said, "Come on, I'll distribute the snacks to help you guys satisfy your hunger."

Seeing him coming out of the toilet without washing his hands, everyone suggested asking his maid to distribute the urine.

Qin was a little embarrassed, so he called the maid who had been serving him all the way to distribute them.

The maid took the basket without hesitation and distributed snacks to everyone.

Everyone was starving, so they took the snacks and ate them with relish, saying that they were delicious.

Only Qin's driver shook his head and refused: "Master, I'm not hungry."

The head maid smiled and said, "How can you not be hungry after driving all the way? Take it."

The driver accepted the snack reluctantly but did not eat it.

The eldest maid was surprised: "Eat it, don't be polite, there is more after you finish eating, I will get you some more."

The driver shook his hands vigorously and not only did he not eat the snacks, he threw them down the hillside when no one was paying attention.

Wu Youren happened to see this and frowned, "Your master brought these snacks with great effort, and they are the best snacks in the snack shop. How could you throw them away?"

When he shouted, several people heard him and asked him if he was dissatisfied with his master.

Qin felt very embarrassed and whipped him with a horse whip, insisting that he tell him why he lost the snack...

Having said that, Gu Shaoyu looked at Xie Zhaozhao.

"What do you think the reason is?" Gu Shaoyu asked.

Xie Zhaozhao blinked and asked tentatively, "Not clean?"

Gu Shaoyu silently moved a little further away from Xie Zhaozhao and revealed the answer.

"The driver was forced into a corner and had to tell the truth - you only saw the master touching her once, but the maid touched her all the way!"

Xie Zhaozhao stopped eating the candy ball in astonishment, looked at Gu Shao's serious face, and suddenly her face turned red.

He picked up the pillow at his feet and threw it over, gritting his teeth and saying, "Gu, Shao, Yu!"

Gu Shaoyu laughed silently, shielding his face with his arms to protect his head, and the pillow was blown aside.

The two were playing around inside, and Nanxing suddenly asked in front, "Is there another unpleasant thing?"

Xie Zhaozhao was about to continue hitting him but paused for a moment, then suddenly he let out a muffled laugh, his shoulders shaking like leaves in the wind! !

Gu Shaoyu's face darkened, and he said through the car curtain: "Nanxing, remember, starting tomorrow, you and Beichen will switch positions!"

Nanxing's grinning mouth closed instantly.

Xie Zhaozhao couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. Seeing her laughing like that, Gu Shaoyu had to hold the candy ball for her and his eyes softened as well.

After laughing for a while, Xie Zhaozhao thought of poor Nanxing, lightly pressed his chest, and said to Gu Shaoyu: "Tell me quickly, what is the other unpleasant thing?"
