Fake concubine, real queen

Changyang Marquis Mansion.

There is a dazzling array of delicacies on the dining table, and each dish is bright in color, just looking at it makes people's index fingers twitch.

But the most eye-catching thing is the biggest bowl in the middle.

Not for anything else, just for him... What a big bowl of sweet and sour pork ribs.

There were five people sitting at the dinner table, namely——

Unhappy for no reason, He Lao Hou Ye glared at his son with a black face.

Looking at her husband's smiling gentle Mrs. Wan Shi.

He didn't realize that his own father was staring at him, he was looking at Master He Xiaohou who was gearing up for the sweet and sour pork ribs that night, eager to try.

He was still immersed in the second young master He Cheng whose elder brother gave him a good face and was very pleased.

And the third lady, He Rong, who was biting her small silver teeth and staring at Mrs. Hou fiercely with a pair of round almond eyes.

"Eat!" He Gu waited for a long time, but seeing no one moved, he simply picked up the chopsticks, and smiled very generously, "If you don't eat the food, it will be cold."

Old Master He: "..."

As soon as He Gu said that, he realized that his father, Old Master He's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Only then did he come to his senses, old man He is still alive, and he has not yet inherited the title of Marquis of Changyang and became the head of the family.

This can't be blamed on him, he was thirty when he died in the last life, Mr. He had belched in his year, and he had been the head of the family for 12 years, so naturally he had long forgotten what it was to be a little Fudi in this family What's the taste.

But now Mr. He is still sitting on the table, and the father has not moved yet, but the son is yelling to move his chopsticks. It is strange that Mr. He is not black-faced.

"Your rules are all in the dog's stomach." Old Hou Ye threw the chopsticks on the table, "Your father and I are still sitting on the table, is it your turn to call the table open?!"

He Gu touched his nose: "You didn't say anything for a long time, can you blame me? I've been hungry all the way."

"You're the only one hungry? Isn't your second brother hungry? Isn't your third sister hungry? Why are you so fragile, what if you are hungry for a while longer?" He Laohou blew his beard and stared angrily.

"What are you yelling at? You're so old, you're so angry." He Gu said lazily, "You call the banquet, can't you call the banquet? I won't fight with you. If I do, I'll be a little boy." Dog, don't worry."

He said this as if he was comforting a three-year-old boy, and Old Master He stared at him: "You!"

Wan Shi was so frightened that he hurriedly stopped him: "Master Hou, Gu'er is just a young man, why do you have to compete with your own son? Gu'er is right, it will hurt your body if you don't eat, and the food will be cold. Let's eat quickly."

After being comforted by his beloved wife's nice words, Old Master He finally calmed down, but he still gave He Gu a hard look, then shook his beard and said, "Then eat..."

Before he could finish eating, He Gu quickly stretched out his chopsticks towards the bowl of sweet and sour pork ribs in the middle of the dining table.

When Old Master He saw this, his heart choked up, and he was almost out of breath.

Although this son also told him that his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes, he barely knew the rules and would not let him get off the stage face to face. That's it.

what happened?

He Lao Houye suddenly remembered the content of the Kuai Ma Fei report before, he paused, and said in a deep voice: "Shu'er, I was on the way back to Beijing before, and I received a horse report saying that His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess chose a son-in-law, you put Gu'er's date of birth was passed into the palace, what's going on?"

Wan's eyelids twitched, and the fingers holding the embroidered handkerchief under the dining table violently tugged at the small silk handkerchief, but the expression on his face did not change at all, and he only smiled softly: "It is true. The wife of the Earl's Mansion entered the palace together to talk to the Empress Empress. The Empress said... Her Royal Highness is eighteen now, and it should be the age for marriage. Worthy, to be the husband-in-law of His Royal Highness the eldest princess."

"And then?" Old Master He said expressionlessly.

He Gu raised his eyelids to look at Wan Shi with a half-smile, then quickly looked away. He picked up a large piece of sweet and sour pork ribs that was still stained with soup, and put it into Third Miss He Rong's bowl.

"Mei Rong eats more to grow taller." He frowned towards He Rongxiao's eyebrows and said in a low voice.

Over there, Wan Shi is still explaining to Lord He Laohou.

"Later... Later, the empress asked if there was a very outstanding young master in the Marquis of Changyang, and ordered someone to pass on Gu'er's portrait to the palace to see. The empress saw the portrait, and even said that Gu'er Alright, now I asked my concubine for Gu'er's birth date."

"Oh?" Old Master He's expression softened, "So you didn't take the initiative to bring Gu'er's birth date to the empress?"

"Of course not." Wan suddenly raised his head, with tears in his eyes, "Master Hou asked me this question, is he suspicious of me? If you become a son-in-law, you can no longer be an official. I am Gu'er's mother. How can you have such thoughts?"

"Over the years, how have I treated Gu'er Rong'er? In the entire Hou's mansion, every living thing with eyes can see clearly. If the master is suspicious, it will chill Shu'er's heart."

She looked at Master He with her beautiful eyes, her eyes were dim with tears, her appearance of crying or not was really pitiful, the just right tear in the corner of her eyes was like the dewdrops on the green leaves in spring, beautiful and lovely .

Old Master He's heart was twisted into a ball for his beloved wife, and he hurriedly said: "I just asked, why did Shu'er cry because of such things? Hurry up and wipe."

However, He Gu snorted coldly and said, "For such a thing? Is it [such a thing] in my life's eyes?"

Although He Gu has already made up his mind not to follow the direction of his previous life, although he intends to marry the eldest princess, but he does not intend to accept the anger of Wan's plotting against him.

"Didn't Madam say that she didn't think about tea or food? Didn't she toss and turn all night long, and couldn't sleep all night? It's hard because you still remember going to the palace with your little sister and trying your best to show your face in front of the empress. It's my birthday. The horoscope has only been known by the old mothers of the Yan family who married my mother. They will definitely not tell you. Other than that, it is only on the family tree. The family tree is locked in the ancestral hall. Dare to ask how Madam knows of?"

"You have great powers!" He Gu said in a strange way, "The copper lock with the size of a fist will be opened as soon as it is said to be opened, what a great skill."

Wan's face paled instantly upon hearing this, and Old Master He was also taken aback, and turned to look at her: "Shu'er...you..."

"Master Hou, listen to my explanation, I didn't..."

"If you want to explain, go back to the room to explain, brother Cheng and sister Rong and I have to eat, you two don't spoil our appetite here." He Guliang said.

This appearance of his angered Mr. He first.

"You bastard!" Old Master He stood up, pointed at He Gu and said angrily, "Even if your mother really found your horoscope and sent it to the palace, so what? Your marriage was supposed to be her You are the master, what your parents ordered and what the matchmaker said! You don't understand this point of human ethics, so what is your attitude towards me and your mother?"

He Gu's face instantly turned cold.

"Whatever attitude she has, I naturally have the attitude, but I can't do that set of demeanor with spring breeze on my face, but a knife hidden in the cotton."

"Also, let me tell you one last time, she is not my mother."

He Guhan said.

"My mother died a long time ago. It's hard for her to be quiet in the underground now. Don't bring this woman to mention her. It's okay to make me feel sick, and disturb the peace of my mother underground."

"You...you you you you..." Mr. He's eyes were so big that they almost jumped out of their sockets.

He Gu turned a blind eye, just threw the chopsticks in his hand on the table, and said: "I won't eat, I feel sick, go back and rest first."

He turned his head and stepped out of the door, Zhengye who had been waiting outside the door hurriedly followed.

He Gu walked fast, and Zhengye had no choice but to trot to follow him, and said with a bitter face while running: "Why do you say you are doing this... Now your reputation of disobedience and unfilial piety will definitely spread throughout Bianjing City..."

"Let's pass it on. I'm afraid she won't do it? If everyone knows that his son has a disobedient elder brother, and Confucians are most concerned about family integrity, I'd like to see how her son will become an official in the future. She Dare?"

"Hey! Master, didn't you say go back and have a rest, this is your way out of the mansion?"

He Gu paused, then turned to look at him: "I'm going out of the house, I'm suffocated, go prepare the horse."

"Huh?" Masano was at a loss.

"Ah what? Hurry up."

Zhengye scratched his head, but he didn't care where He Gu was going, so he had to turn around and look for the stable boy to prepare the horse.

He Gu'er hadn't recovered yet, when he suddenly heard a little girl calling softly from behind.

"Big brother!"

He turned his head, and sure enough, he saw the third younger sister He Rong standing behind her. She was wearing a light yellow jacket and skirt, and had a pair of almond eyes with reddish rims on her fair and round face.

"Rong'er?" He Gu was taken aback, and quickly squatted down to help her, "Why did you chase her out?"

"Brother, woo..." He Rong cried while reaching out to wipe his tears, "You have been wronged so much since you came back, how can I still eat it!"

He Gu's heart softened suddenly, he stretched out his hand to wipe away He Rong's tears, but he was afraid that his hand would hurt his sister too much, so he stretched out his hand in mid-air, either shrinking or not, in the end he had to hold He Rong He took her into his arms and patted her on the back.

"Don't cry or cry, it's the elder brother's fault. The elder brother quarreled with them and didn't take into account that you were next to him. It scared you. Will the elder brother apologize to you?"

He Rong sniffled and said aggrievedly: "Brother didn't do anything wrong, it's all because of the bad father, the bad wife, they are all bad, they bully the big brother, the bad guys don't end well, tomorrow they will have diarrhea."

He Gu was almost amused by her: "Really? I'll have diarrhea tomorrow, so fast?"

"It's not fast, it's too slow! Pull it today!"

The eight or nine-year-old girl's chubby face was very determined.

Finally, He Gu couldn't hold back a "puchi" laugh, and raised his hand to stroke her soft hair.

"Rong'er don't worry, big brother is amazing, no one can bully big brother, not only can't bully big brother, but also can't bully you. By the way, when big brother is not here, is there anyone here to bully Rong'er?"

"No, Nanny Qu and the others are very powerful. No one dares to bully Rong'er. Every time they try to do something bad, they will be discovered by the nanny!"

He Gu's expression sank: "Do they often come here to do bad things?"

He Rong's expression was a little dazed: "It seems that there is no..."

He Gu was silent for a while, but He Rong suddenly said: "Brother... Do you really want to marry that eldest princess? The nuns all said that the wife is bad, and if you marry the eldest princess, you will be finished."

"Brother, why don't we go to grandma and grandpa and say that you don't want to marry the princess, grandpa will definitely help you."

He Gu shook his head: "Grandma and grandpa are getting old, you can't just think of trouble them if you have nothing to do, they can't stand it anymore, Rong'er has to be considerate of them, you know?"

He Rong blinked his eyes, his expression was a little aggrieved: "But...but what are you going to do, big brother..."

"It's just marrying a princess, and it's not about letting your elder brother marry a tigress. What's the big deal?" He Gu smiled, "And even if you marry the princess, elder brother will not be ruined. Be good, don't worry about elder brother. okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhengye had already returned with his horse.

He Gu curled up his index finger knuckles, rubbed against He Rong's soft face, stood up, and said: "Go back quickly, Mammy Qu and the others won't be able to find you in a while, so they should be worried."

He Rong nodded obediently, and then left without turning around.

Masano asked, "Master, where are we going?"

He Gu turned his head to look at him, and suddenly showed a bright smile that made Zhengye's heart shudder.

"Huayue Building."
