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

When Old Madam Xie heard that something big might have happened in the Marquis' Mansion, she was really anxious.

But if we send someone to the Marquis' Mansion to investigate, if Lord Gu finds out, it will definitely affect the relationship between the two mansions.

If I don’t check, I’m afraid that my granddaughter and the Xie family will be in trouble.

Since ancient times, there have been many cases where marriages have brought good things to the couple, but there have also been many cases where both parties suffered losses.

It would be best if we could ask Lord Gu to come over and ask about this matter, and put it on the table.

Xie Zhaozhao said, "Send a note to Lord Gu and ask him directly. He is famous for being fair. If he is willing to tell the truth, that would be the best. If he hides something and causes trouble for the Xie family, father will definitely report him."

Grandmother held her hand distressedly: "Zhao Zhao, if you do this, Lord Gu will probably feel resentful. How can Grandmother let you suffer for your whole life?"

"Grandmother, I have been favored by the Xie family since I was young. I am one of the best in the world, but I think I am outstanding in the capital. Since I have received the favor, I must repay it. Whoever harms the Xie family, I will become his enemy."

Old Madam Xie burst into tears immediately. How could she not love this granddaughter!

Old Madam Xie asked Xie Anfeng to say hello to Lord Gu and invited him to come home after the court session as she had something to ask him about marriage.

Xie Anfeng told Gu Shaoyu about this when he went to court. Gu Shaoyu immediately went to Xie's house with Xie Anfeng after court.

The old lady saw that he was dressed in purple court robes and that although he was a civil servant he looked dignified and majestic, and even more dignified and noble than the princes. She liked him very much.

She really picked a good son-in-law for her eldest granddaughter.

Because the engagement had been agreed, Gu Shaoyu followed Xie Zhaozhao in calling the old lady "grandmother".

"Whatever you need, grandma, just let me know."

He was very polite and didn't beat around the bush, so Mrs. Xie spoke directly.

"Yesterday, your mother and your eldest sister-in-law came to the mansion and asked to move up the wedding date. The old lady said that she was not feeling well and wanted to take the two children to the mansion as soon as possible. I thought that Lord Gu might not know about this yet."

Gu Shaoyu was stunned and said, "I really don't know about this."

"What does Lord Gu think about moving up the wedding date?"

"What does Grandmother mean?"

"It's already June, and the wedding is less than a month away. It would be best if we could stick to the original date. The engagement was given on the Dragon Boat Festival, so the ninth day of the seventh month is already very tight."

Old Madam Xie was unhappy. How could this be possible? Two months of preparation were already very tight, and if it were to be brought forward, how would others view the Xie family?

Gu Shaoyu immediately said, "Then it will still be the ninth day of the seventh month. The chosen date will remain unchanged."

After saying this, he added, "Grandma, don't worry about this matter, leave it to me, I will arrange it."

Madam Xie was delighted and said, "If there is anything in the Marquis' Mansion, just let us know. The Xie Mansion will definitely help in every possible way it can."

"Nothing is wrong in the mansion, don't worry, grandma."

Xie Anfeng also said: "The marriage is settled, don't change it, it's not good for my daughter's reputation."

The daughter of the Xie family can't get married? Or is the Xie family unable to accommodate a daughter?

This is so ugly.

Gu Shaoyu said that the wedding date will go on as planned and will not change.

After talking for a while, Gu Shaoyu pleaded with the old lady, "Jingchen wants to see the eldest lady, please agree, grandmother."

How could Mrs. Xie refuse? She liked Gu Shaoyu very much.

He asked Ying'er to take him to Xie Zhaozhao's yard.

White walls, green bamboos, Xie Zhaozhao's yard is indeed so elegant and peaceful.

Mo Yan, the servant guarding the door, saw Ying'er bringing someone over and immediately came over happily: "Sister Ying'er, hello, Lord Gu."

Gu Shaoyu smiled and said, "You go and report it. I will come to see the eldest lady."

Ying Er bowed to Gu Shaoyu and said, "Then I will take my leave first."

Mo Yan saw Yuanyuan feeding the birds in the corridor and shouted, "Sister Yuanyuan, please tell the eldest lady that Lord Gu is here to visit."

"Master Gu is here? Please come in quickly."

Yuanyuan welcomed Gu Shaoyu into the tea room in the east house, served him tea, and went to the main house to report to Xie Zhaozhao.

Gu Shaoyu looked at the seven or eight gilded Taiping copper vats in Xie Zhaozhao's yard. There were lotus flowers in the vats, each of which was in full bloom.

The lotus leaves in the fields are as white as jade, and the lotus flowers are dotted with red amidst the green.

He thought about placing a few more of these gilded Taiping bronze vats in the yard.

After sitting for a while, he heard light, rhythmic footsteps, stood up and looked at the door.

I couldn't help but feel happy.

When Xie Zhaozhao came in, she saw him in court robes and smiling eyes, and she knew that he had come here after court without even changing his clothes.

"Thank you for your hard work, Sir." She said with a smile.

"I came here today to tell you about some things at home so that you don't miss them."

For some reason, Gu Shaoyu just wanted to be honest with Xie Zhaozhao and didn't want to hide anything.

Xie Zhaozhao hummed and sat down opposite him.

"Something has happened in the mansion recently. It's mainly because the prince used the wrong people. First, a servant spoke wildly and offended some people, causing the mansion to pay a lot of silver."

"Then, the prince opened an ice shop with his cousin and was sued."

"Because of these two incidents, the government has lost a lot of money."

"I didn't know that my mother and sister-in-law came to ask for a change of wedding date. Although I want to marry you sooner, I don't want to sacrifice your reputation, so I want to tell you that I will arrange this matter, and we will stick to the originally selected date."

Although Gu Shaoyu spoke tactfully, he did not cover up for Gu Chengyan nor exaggerate. He told the truth without hiding anything.

This man is really nice!

Xie Zhaozhao smiled and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, Lord."

"Don't work yourself up, just make sure your wedding dress is ready. I'm not good at managing money, so when you get married, you'll be the boss of the family. My salary won't be much, but it won't be a problem for us to have enough food and clothing."

He said bluntly, "If you don't like dealing with the elder and second sisters-in-law, we can move out of the house."

This is to tell her that I will support her to the end.

Xie Zhaozhao pursed his lips and smiled: "Speaking of having enough food and clothing, there are still many refugees stranded in the capital from the south and north cities. Refugees from the west and northwest are still stranded in the capital."

She told Lord Gu that she wanted to select some refugees with decent character and settle them in the manor.

"I will find someone to teach them some Kung Fu. If they learn well, I will send them to Baiyue to open up wasteland and cultivate land or open up trade routes for Baiyue."

"No matter how much money we earn, this will completely resettle the refugees in the capital, and these people will no longer affect the security of the capital."

Gu Shaoyu is a cabinet minister, and people's livelihood issues are his responsibility. She is trying to gain reputation for him.

Gu Shaoyu's eyes were smiling, and his eyes were shimmering, very moving. He said to her, "Just do it, and I will find a time to tell His Majesty."

In this way, she had an easy way to recruit people.

She smiled happily and he smiled stunningly.

He seemed to have a soft spot, and she seemed to have armor.
