Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Chapter 127 Sister Keeps It

On the morning of August 15th, Gu Hong took Wang to the old lady's courtyard, handed in the Heart Sutra he had written as punishment, and apologized again. The old lady didn't want to argue anymore and asked Liu Mama to take the things. "Let's just let it go this time. If you do it again, go back to your parents' home for a while and let your mother give you some advice. I can't do anything about it."

Being sent back to her parents' home to reflect on her actions would be a disgrace to Wang Shi and the entire Wang family. Wang Shi naturally couldn't let this happen. "Mother, don't worry. I will be careful with my words and actions in the future and will never worry you again."

"Third brother, you should take your time in arranging a match for Ruoxing. Our family may have a great opportunity. Don't rush into it, or the child will feel sad." Old Mrs. Gu did not forget to instruct Gu Hong.

"Mother? What do you mean?" Gu Hong wondered. His mother was urging him a few days ago, but she is not in a hurry today?

"Just do as I say. Mother won't harm you."

"Yes." Gu Hong agreed and returned to the backyard. Wang went to the eldest wife, Li, to see if there was anything she could do to help with the family dinner tonight.

It would be better for her to be more honest recently. The old lady didn't seem to be joking just now.

Arriving at the main courtyard, Li was talking to the housekeeper. Wang came forward with a smile and said, "Sister-in-law, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Third sister-in-law, now you are here. I have arranged everything here, but I will have to trouble you in the evening. The servants at home also have a feast, so you need to take care of them. Mother just told me that second sister-in-law is not available today, so she asked me to come with her to the palace." Li said with a smile.

Originally, according to Gu Ping's rank, a fifth-rank official, he could not attend the banquet. His second brother's wife could go, but she was still in confinement, so she took over the task.

"Ah, second sister-in-law can enter the palace to attend the banquet. I don't even remember about this." Wang laughed awkwardly.

"It's the first year since my second brother returned to Beijing. It's not surprising that you don't remember it." Li smiled and said, "There will be more occasions like this in the future." After all, it is possible that Bai can become the mother-in-law of the prince.

Wang was so upset that she was about to twist the handkerchief into pieces. Although she always brought up Bai's background, she had to admit that a woman should obey her husband. Bai's husband, her second uncle, was a powerful man.

She had no say in Li's case, and she didn't want to go to Bai's case, so she simply went back to the third room.

At 3 p.m., Old Madam Gu sent Qiulian over to remind Gu Qinghe, her tone cheerful, "Third Miss, the old lady said you should get ready quickly. It's almost time for us to set off."

"Sister Qiulian, don't worry. Our girl has been ready early in the morning and will definitely not hold the old lady back." Yingchun took a few quick steps forward and said, looking around the room.

Inside the room, Gu Qinghe was taking a nap. She had just fallen asleep, and Wangchun and the others didn't have the heart to wake her up. In the past two days, the girl had not slept as well as before at night.

"That's fine. Remember to bring some spare clothes for the third young lady." Qiulian looked inside the door again. It was so quiet.

She had heard from the old lady before that the third young lady was much freer in the palace than in her own home. She could have any snacks from Yongshou Palace as she pleased. The old lady was afraid that the third young lady would lose her composure in front of the Empress Dowager.

"Sister, please go back first." Yingchun said with a smile, standing within Qiulian's sight.

"Okay." Qiulian agreed and went to the third room to check on Gu Ruoxing.

Unlike the quietness of the second room, I heard movement in the house before I even entered the second girl's yard.

"Xing'er, where did you put the pearl jewelry you took earlier? I want to try it on and compare it."

"In the dressing-case."

"Xing'er, the girl has a pink dress, where is it?"

"Let me look for it."

Qiulian stood at the door, listened for a while, and then walked in. "Second Miss, the old lady has something for me to bring to you."

Gu Ruoxing sat in front of the dressing table, not wanting to get up and waste time, "Qiulian? Come in and talk."

Qiulian entered the messy house, which looked like it had been robbed by bandits. "Second Miss, the old lady said that you should follow the rules."

"I understand. Just let grandma rest assured." Gu Ruoxing said as she held the earring to her ear, looking very nonchalant.

When Gu Qinghe arrived at the grandmother's house, Gu Ruoxing had not come yet.

"Grandma." Gu Qinghe bowed.

Old Mrs. Gu was not surprised when she saw her granddaughter's dress. She was still wearing a light green dress, and there were no eye-catching hair accessories on her head, only a few pearls, and small pearls on her ears. It was really simple, but it also revealed a pure beauty.

Forget it, maybe the Empress Dowager likes this kind of thriftiness. The current situation is very good, so I shouldn’t add unnecessary trouble.

"When you arrive at the palace today, you must act with caution. If you taste any delicious snacks or meals, tell grandma. After you go home, grandma will find a way to have someone make them for you." Old Lady Gu emphasized.

Today is a big banquet, we must not lose our composure.

"Yes." Gu Qinghe responded.

"Grandma, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I didn't expect that I would fall behind my third sister this time. I really deserve a beating." Gu Ruoxing came over with a round fan in her hand, bringing with her a fragrant breeze.

"Qinghe always comes on time, unlike you, who are sometimes early and sometimes late." Old Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Ruoxing, who was dressed beautifully, and said in a deep voice.

"Grandma, today is a holiday and we don't like violent people." Gu Ruoxing said coquettishly.

"Okay, it's late, let's stop gossiping and go away." Mrs. Gu said, holding Mother Liu's arm and walking out.

Gu Ruoxing looked at Gu Qinghe's dress. This third sister was really useless even though she had the chance. The Crown Princess sitting in the East Palace must be graceful and elegant. She dressed like a beautiful little cabbage, which made her look less imposing. Even if the Empress Dowager liked her, would the Emperor like such a daughter-in-law?

"Third sister, didn't grandma give you some jewelry? Are you reluctant to take it out? Or do you think you are like a lotus flower emerging from the water and don't need any decoration?" Gu Ruoxing asked with a chuckle.

"Yes." Gu Qinghe said. To deal with this kind of person, just don't argue with her, you can make her angry.

"I asked you three questions. Which one did you answer when you said 'yes'?" Gu Ruoxing asked.

"All."

Yingchun and Wangchun followed behind the girl, biting the soft flesh on their cheeks, for fear that they would laugh. Sure enough, their girl was able to catch the second girl.

"You--" Gu Ruoxing was about to speak when she saw an unfamiliar servant jogging towards her and stopping beside Wangchun.

After Yuanxiao stood still, he glanced at Gu Qinghe, then at the carriage of the Gu Mansion. Thinking about what the young master had said, he took out an envelope from his sleeve pocket and handed it to Wangchun, "Sister, keep it."

Gu Ruoxing looked at Gu Qinghe and said, "Let's go quickly, grandma is waiting anxiously."

Sure enough, as soon as the voice fell, Mother Liu poked her head out and said, "Two girls, get in the car too."
