Chapter 171 Not Helping
Mrs. Gu was so angry that she laughed instead.
"The father and grandfather of the Duke of Guo are really good at being a good person. The only thing that can be said is that he has been treated well. Look at the days when they are forced to leave the house, should they be treated like a direct descendant? "
For this reason, the Duke of Guo also had a big headache.
"A few days ago, my son-in-law was assassinated by thieves and remained unconscious. When he woke up, Dongyuan had been burned to the ground. Liulang also moved them here with him. Even if I wanted them to go back, I still had the intention. It’s so powerless.”
"But don't worry, mother-in-law. I will welcome you back when Dongyuan is repaired. Now I am just staying here temporarily at Liulang."
When he said these words, his eyes were quite sincere.
It’s a pity that sincerity is of little use to Mrs. Gu, all she has is endless dislike for him.
"Take it back, what are you doing to take it back? Continue to live a life where the sky is not responding and the earth is not functioning properly? My lord, there is a **** three feet above your head. Your heart is already outside the west city gate. Don't stay with me. It’s so pretentious and pretentious in front of the old lady.”
Shang Yukuan wanted to explain, but saw that Mrs. Gu had already waved her hand and did not want to talk to him anymore.
"Okay, I'll just tell you, come on the day of the reception banquet if you want to, but you can only come alone. If you don't come, don't come. You are not a must for our Gu family!"
After saying this, Mrs. Gu spoke to Nanny Qin next to her.
“Send off guests.”
“Yes, old lady.”
Shang Yukuan came here because he wanted to ask for something. Otherwise, why would he come here to scold him?
But before he could say a few words, Mrs. Gu blocked his way.
What can he do?
He also had a headache when he thought of Mrs. Wei outside the door.
She has taken great pains to take care of herself these days, which deserves both credit and hard work.
And coming to the General's Mansion for a banquet is not a big deal at all.
Even if they don’t have any posts, they still get what they deserve.
I went through this journey just to have a more legitimate reputation, but now it seems that there is no way out.
Let alone the Wei family, even people from the Wei family of the Shang family would not be able to enter the house.
The whole person was in great difficulty, but Nanny Qin and others came up to him to send him out, so what could he do?
Had no choice but to sigh and followed out the door dejectedly.
As soon as I walked to the door, I saw Mrs. Wei coming to greet me.
Her cheeks were a little red from standing in the cold wind, and so was her nose.
At first she was full of hope, but after seeing her husband's expression, she got the general idea and asked anxiously.
“What did the old lady say?”
Shang Yukuan shook his head, with helplessness and embarrassment on his face.
Mrs. Wei was a little unhappy when she saw this. In fact, she came here not only for the Duke's Mansion, but also for the Wei family.
The whole city of Sui'an has invited all the reputable people, but their two families have refused to invite them. Isn't this a rush to tell everyone that they are not on good terms with them?
Everything else is still trivial. The most troublesome thing is the marriage between Shang Qilang and Wei Jialian.
They are both of marriageable age. Wouldn't it be a pity not to show off at such a nice party?
So, with red eyes, he said.
"The old lady still disagrees? Why don't I go in and talk about it? My sister was very kind to me in the past. I can't just stay away from each other for the rest of my life just because of a misunderstanding."
The sister Mrs. Wei mentioned was naturally Mrs. Gu.
She is good at acting on her own, but unfortunately she has no one to watch.
Mother Qin lowered the curtain without saying a word, and closed the door as well.
The attitude was so cold that everyone could see that they were not welcome. Mother Dou and Butler He also walked out immediately as if they were pinched, and said to the two of them.
“My lord, please.”
“Mrs. Wei, please.”
Such a performance made the two of them unable to get off the stage. Mrs. Wei actually wanted to beg again, but Shang Yukuan had no face to treat her.
He headed straight outside!
Mrs. Wei was extremely angry, but she couldn't say anything else at the moment.
After leaving the general's mansion, the two of them got into the carriage and drove.
At this moment, her heart was colder than the weather outside, and Mrs. Wei started to cry as usual.
"The old lady is dissatisfied with my concubine, so don't get involved with the children. We are all one family, so why can't we come to this banquet? My family members also don't post. Isn't this a slap in our faces?"
“Sir, tell me, if I were really the black-hearted stepmother that people say these years, would my children be able to grow up well? How come everyone can come and step on me?”
She cried sadly, and Shang Yukuan also sighed one after another.
"The old lady is not dissatisfied with you, she is dissatisfied with me. According to her wishes, if everyone in our house really goes, there will be trouble, or... or else forget it."
"Forget it? How can I forget it, sir?"
Such an occasion will not be something that the Duke’s Mansion will be able to achieve in the future.
Originally, Shang Yukuan was not taken seriously in the court. In the past, he might have been able to gain some attention from others because of Shang Ji's face.
But now, I'm afraid that after the banquet is over, the wind direction of Ancheng will change.
The Wei family is better off, at least both his father and brother are well-known in the court, but their government is really struggling.
Although there is support from Prince Fu's Mansion, Yu Shang Qilang's future is not very good.
Therefore, Mrs. Wei was very anxious.
But even though she was anxious, Shang Yukuan was powerless and could only shake his head and sigh.
“If you have any idea, go ahead and do it yourself. I’m out of ideas. You didn’t even see the old lady’s appearance just now. You wish you could eat me!”
They are still relatives after all, so why are the Gu family members so ruthless when they fall out with each other?
Mrs. Wei was really furious after hearing what her husband said, but there was nothing she could do.
Her husband's weakness does not happen overnight, so she had to find another way.
Perhaps it would be better to follow Princess Yuehua’s footsteps?
Thinking of this, I felt it was time to go to Prince Fu’s Mansion.
So after the carriage and horse drove Shang Yukuan back to the Duke's Mansion, she did not follow him down. Instead, she asked the driver to change the direction and went straight to Prince Fu's Mansion.
There are only a few days left now, and she doesn't want to delay.
Seeing her leaving in a hurry, the Duke of Guo felt a sense of powerlessness in his whole body.
He also had a headache when he thought of his mother-in-law's disgust and disdain for him today.
I really don’t know what kind of face I should wear to attend the housewarming party.
At the other end, Xu Lai is in the courtyard.
Mrs. Gu was sitting calmly in the car, while Mrs. Xing next to her was cursing fiercely.
"This prince of the country really has a good reputation! He dares to take Mrs. Wei with him! It's so shameless and shameless. Neither of them is a good person!"
