"Brother, eat this!"

"Brother, eat this!"

"This was made by the chef I brought from the General's Mansion. No one in the capital can compare to the crispy pigeon he makes!"

"And this marinated duck is really special, come and try it!"

Gu Jiusi had a pigeon in one hand and a pickled duck in the other, his mouth full of oil. He did not forget to respond to Gu Feiwan: "It's delicious... um... everything my sister makes... is delicious..."

Gu Shian shook his head: "If the examiner sees me like this, I will definitely not make the list!"

"Brother... what you said... is... wrong..."

Gu Jiusi burped. "This exam was much simpler than the questions given by Master. My answers were not difficult. Besides, the exam tests your writing skills, not your eating habits. And besides, if my sister hadn't picked up the food, how could it be so delicious?"

"Hahaha, Jiusi's words make a lot of sense!" Gu Yechen laughed.

"No matter whether you are on the list or not, you are all good sons of the Gu family." Old Madam Gu raised her glass with a smile:

"Come, have a drink for our good boy!"

"have a drink!"

"The results will be announced in ten days, and I will prepare delicious food and wine for my two brothers!" Gu Feiwan was so happy that she couldn't help but drink two more glasses.

The Gu family knew her alcohol tolerance and tried to stop her from drinking. Even if she continued to act like a spoiled brat, Madam Gu remained steadfast:

"No more drinking!"

"Help her to rest quickly. She doesn't care about her own body!" Old Madam Gu said. Qinglin and Qingshuang took two sides of Gu Feiwan, half carrying and half supporting her, and brought her back to the room.

"My sister is worried about something!" Gu Shian drank a cup of wine, held the cup between his fingertips and spoke.

Gu Jiusi nodded: "Well, my sister is worried!"

"Haha, I really can't tell that Jiusi's mind has become sharper after entering the Imperial Examination Hall once!" Madam Gu joked.

"Guaiguai is worried? How come I don't know?" Seeing that everyone in the family knew about it, Gu Yechen immediately became anxious:

"Tell me now, how could you hide this from me? I'm her grandfather!"

"Forget it, you are the dumbest in the family!" Old Madam Gu curled her lips.

"Let the young people solve their own problems. If they are wronged, we will help them."

"Grandma is right!" Gu Jiusi nodded.

"Yeah, I also think grandma is right!" Gu Shian nodded.

Gu Yechen seemed to understand something: "So, it was Xiao Zhou who provoked Guai Guai? No, I have to go and settle the score with him!"

"Come back!" Madam Gu slammed the table and said, "Why are you, an old man, meddling in this? It would be terrible if you end up making things worse. Just stay calm and make your own decisions!"

Gu Yechen was anxious, but his wife's words made sense.

How can a young couple not quarrel?

It would not be good if the elders like them interfered too much. As long as the family behaves well and does not suffer any loss, that's all that's fine!

But after this incident, he still had to talk to Ning Weizhou about the true meaning of life!

"Miss, Nanny Wang just passed on a message saying that Xie Xilan is gone!" Qingshuang brought the sobering soup and said quietly.

Gu Feiwan, who was a little drunk, suddenly became very sober. Xie Xilan was dead!

"So fast?" she whispered.

"Yes, they say he died before Xie Huaizhong could see the doctor he hired. It should have happened early this morning."

Seeing that Gu Feiwan's eyes were clear, Qingshuang moved the hangover soup away and handed her a hot towel: "Girl, wipe it off. Maybe if you're happy, you can have another drink!"

"You know the girl's health condition, why are you encouraging her instead of trying to persuade her?" Qinglin gently pushed Qingshuang.

Qing Shuang made a face: "Xie Xilan forced the girl to divorce, and made the whole city laugh at her. Now she is dead, it is her retribution!"

Gu Feiwan's lips curled up. Qingshuang was a straightforward person. If she knew that she had been killed by Xie Xilan and her innocence was insulted, she would probably pick up a knife and kill her!

"This is the retribution she deserves!" Gu Feiwan wiped his face, and the haze in his heart dissipated:

"No need to just drink, go to the kitchen and get something delicious, I suddenly feel hungry!"

"Girl should eat more. You are not alone now!" Qingshuang loves to laugh. In her eyes, no matter how big the problem is, it will pass quickly. What's more, they have a great thing in their hearts now!

"Stop talking too much!" Qinglin gently hit her: "Go to the kitchen quickly, don't let the girl starve."

The two walked away together, and Gu Feiwan stared out the window in a daze.

It’s late Spring Festival in Beijing, but the peach branches by the lake in the distance have also sprouted buds. Within ten days or so, the beautiful peach blossoms will be in full bloom all over the city.

Xie Xilan died. She died because of her own daughter's betrayal, the shamelessness of her beloved, and the internal strife in the noble mansion.

In this life, Xie Xilan finally did not get what she wished for!

"Madam, are you happy?" Ali suddenly appeared on the willow tree outside the window.

"Yes, Ali is really smart. I am happy." Gu Feiwan smiled.

Of course I am happy that my revenge has been achieved!

Xie Xilan still did evil in this life, but evil was always punished, and she eventually died at the hands of the person she cared about most!

I wonder if she regretted it before she died?

"Does the Marquis regret it?" Xiao Shuxue sat in front of the dressing table, putting on her usual golden hairpin and gorgeous clothes.

Shen Zhili sat at the head of the bed, hugging the quilt, huddled in the shadow of the curtains.

"Madam is wrong. She deserves what she gets. What should I regret?"

"Haha, if you don't regret it, why don't you dare to go see your Madam Lan?" Xiao Shuxue's words were heartbreaking:

"I remember that when you eloped with Xie Xilan, it was even published in a bookstore in Beijing. I've read it, and it's a good story. The girls in Beijing envied her. But if they knew that after Xie Xilan died, the man she eloped with refused to even see her off, what would they think?"

She looked back and saw Shen Zhili curled up like a quail, which made her feel bored!

For Xie Xilan, and even more for myself!

A handsome appearance, but empty and rotten inside!

"My Lord, Madam, the sun is setting soon. If you don't send it out now, you will have to wait until tomorrow..." The old nanny at the door had been waiting for a while. The room was silent. The sun was setting outside. She couldn't wait any longer.

The charity cemetery in the city is remote, far away from the bustling streets here. She doesn't want to transport corpses after sunset!

"My Lord, she is yours, please say something!" Xiao Shuxue turned around and brushed her fingers over the various jewelry. These things still made her feel at ease.

"The women in the harem are under the Madam's care. I will listen to you!" As soon as Shen Zhili finished speaking, Xiao Shuxue burst out laughing!

"The Marquis is such a good husband. It seems that the rumors in the capital that the Marquis favors his concubine and kills his wife are all bullshit!"

Xiao Shuxue's words were vulgar. On any other day, Shen Zhili would have said, "This is inappropriate!"

But now his expression just darkened a little, and he held the quilt in his hand tighter:

"Rumors are just rumors spread by idlers. Don't believe them!"
