Chapter 342: Exchange of hostages?

"What are you doing?" Zhao rushed into the room and grabbed the ruler that the nanny had not yet fallen: "This is our cousin, how can you, a servant, do you?"

The nanny didn't know what was going on. Seeing the third lady rushing out and grabbing her ruler, she smiled with a mean face: "Mrs. I don't know anything. This was told by the old lady. The cousin's wedding date is coming soon, but the wedding dress and other things have not been taken yet. How can this be done?"

Of course, Zhao knew that this was the old lady’s meaning. The old lady didn’t like Su Mei, which was something that everyone in the Gu family knew, because Su Mei’s mother and grandmother were both thorns in the old lady’s eyes.

But in the past, she could stop Su Mei from suffering with cold eyes and still joked, but now it's not possible. Her man is still waiting for Su Mei to exchange!

"Stop!" Zhao immediately scolded: "The old lady is compassionate and she is not too late to love the younger generations below. How could she give such instructions? It must be that you foolish slaves deliberately misinterpret the old lady's meaning and deliberately oppress the girl!"

The third lady suddenly changed her attitude. Not only was the old lady stunned, but even Su Mei frowned. She didn't understand what the third lady was planning to do. They didn't have much friendship on weekdays, and the third lady was even more a person who liked to watch the fun. How could she suddenly stand up for herself?

Zhao scolded a group of servants, and finally ordered everyone present to confiscate half a month's money. Then he changed his face and held Su Mei's hand with a smile to express his apology: "I've blamed me. I've been so busy these days, but I haven't noticed that the servants treat my cousin like this! Cousin, too. If you suffer grievances, you should tell me directly, "You are the cousin of our Gu family, how can you let the servants bully you?"

Su Mei couldn't react a little. Zhao had already pulled her out of the house with a gust of wind: "Cousin, look, you have been in the Gu family for so many years. Although these damn bitches secretly bullied you because of our negligence, this is not our original intention, right?"

Su Mei couldn't figure out what Zhao wanted to do: "What the third sister-in-law said is that the Gu family is willing to take me in, but they have great kindness to me."

"I knew my cousin was a sensible person!" Zhao immediately slapped her thighs excitedly, and scared Su Mei beside her: "Cousin, you are not an outsider, so I won't hide it from you. As for my third sister-in-law, there is something I want my cousin to help me."

No wonder her attitude suddenly changed drastically. It turned out that she had something to ask for, but Su Mei didn't understand. What can she help Zhao?

"I just said why can't I find my third sister-in-law? So here!" Qian walked up with a jewel of pearls and gems. He didn't know what incense he used on his body, and could smell it from afar: "San Sister-in-law, this is just wrong with you. If something happened to my third brother, our Gu family is anxious, but you can't ruin my cousin for the rest of your life because of this, right? Seeing that my cousin is about to get married, you are inappropriate in your approach!"

Su Mei's eyebrows and eyes moved, and sensitively captured some important information from Qian's words. What Zhao's request for help might have an impact on her marriage?

That's really... great!

"My brother and sister really stand and speak without a pain in their backs. It's not your husband who is in trouble, so you can watch coldly?" Zhao stared at Qian who was blocking the road fiercely and sneered: "I understand. You think my master is the eldest son of the Gu family now. I'm afraid that he will threaten your interests and benefits. I wish he would die outside and not come back, right?"

Even if Qian thought so, he didn't dare to admit it like this: "What the third sister-in-law said is that we are all our own family, so how could we have that kind of thought? But you, you, I heard that the third brother is trying to divorce him. How could I know that something happened to my third brother? Is it really okay to you, third sister-in-law?"

"What do you mean?" Zhao was furious and rushed to grab Qian's face. Qian was not willing to show weakness. The two of them immediately fought together.

The maids and mothers around hurriedly went up to fight, and a group of people were in a mess.

"What are you doing?" Gu Zhenduo looked at the granddaughter-in-law and maids who were beating together, and his beards were about to fly up: "Look at what you are like! Don't stop!"

Su Mei had already saluted Gu Zhenduo and called her grandfather. Gu Zhenduo glanced at her with complicated eyes. Gu Zhenduo saw everything that his wife maliciously targeted her, but he didn't want to interfere. In his eyes, Su Mei was from the Su family and had nothing to do with his Gu family. It would not be considered as if they could get this girl back in vain.

Both Zhao and Qian were brought to the old lady. Gu Zhenduo did not avoid this time, and sat on his head with a gray face, which scared the younger generations standing down with a proud and dared not show off.

"Why didn't you say anything?" The old lady was holding a lazy white cat in her arms, looking at the two granddaughters-kneelings kneeling in front of her: "Didn't you fight before? Now you are all mute?"

Zhao looked aggrieved: "Old lady, it's all about brothers and sisters causing trouble. I'm anxious and angry when my husband has something to do. She's still sarcastic about it. How can I resist it?"

"San Sister-in-law, don't slander!" Qian certainly would not admit his account: "What did I sarcastic? I just saw that you went to ask my cousin for help in private, but it didn't get the old lady's approval. I felt it was inappropriate, so I specifically reminded you, it would be fine if you don't thank me, but you even turned the blame! Third Sister-in-law, how could you do this?"

The two of them were not willing to be outdone and started arguing in court again.

The old lady grabbed the tea bowl next to her and smashed it down: "Shut up!"

The two of them suddenly remembered that the old lady was still there, and immediately closed their mouths and lowered their heads.

"Look at you, what are you like?" The old lady was so sorry for her. Her favorite grandson and daughter-in-law were not from their family. She didn't like the rest of the rest. She only stared at the little bit of flies in front of her, and she was intrigue all day long, and she was numb when she encountered big things: "What's the quarrel? This family hasn't broken up yet!"

The old lady looked at the group of children and grandchildren coldly. The more she looked, the more she felt cold, and there were not many promising people. Shaosong was a good person, but she was ruined by the emperor and the empress dowager several times. Shaolin was a good person, but in the end she was not a Gu family man!

Is God punishing the Gu family?

"You all know about Shaoqing, and I want to know your opinion." The old lady followed the cat's hair in her arms and glanced at the descendants below: "Get out a charter as soon as possible."

Zhao said anxiously: "Time doesn't wait for anyone, old lady! Who knows what Chu Shaolin would do if he was crazy! Our Gu family has raised him for so many years, and not only has the benefit he has lost, but he has bitten him back. He is such a ungrateful wolf!"

Su Mei then vaguely heard a clue, as if something happened to Gu Shaoqing and was taken over by Chu Shaolin? But Shaolin is not the one who revenges for his kindness. If Gu Shaoqing did not violate his bottom line, he would not have had a quarrel with the Gu family.

Others who had the same idea as her were, Qian said disapprovingly: "San Sister-in-law is purely a worry. King Zhenbei grew up in our family. Everyone knows who he is definitely not the kind of ungrateful wolf who repays grudges with grudges. I am curious about how the third brother ran to Beijiang City and was detained by King Zhenbei. Is there anything we don't know about here? If this is a small matter, King Zhenbei would not have done this, right?"

After saying that, he covered his mouth and giggled: "Besides, I don't believe that our seventh brother is that kind of person. Maybe the person who sent the message passed the wrong words, or maybe it was a harmless joke made by the prince and seventh brother with us. There is no need to be so nervous."

The old lady turned her eyes to Su Mei, and a trace of disgust flashed quickly in her eyes. Chu Shaolin actually asked them to give Su Mei a dowry, which really made her feel particularly uncomfortable. Sure enough, this child has been away from her for a long time and is not as caring as before!

"What do you say?" The old lady kicked the question to Su Mei: "You are also the person involved in this matter. What do you think our Gu family should do? Follow the King of Zhenbei and exchange your third cousin from Beijiang City, or do you believe that everything is just a misunderstanding. It's a joke, and you don't need to pay attention to it?"

Su Mei didn't know what was going on at all, so she stood up: "I believe Shaolin would not rashly do something to be an enemy of the Gu family, but can someone tell me what happened? I said I was the person involved, but I didn't know anything!"

The old man raised his eyes and looked at her: "When King Zhenbei was still in the Gu family, he had a very good relationship with you. Have you ever had any contact after he returned to Beijiang City?"

Su Mei immediately shook her head: "The capital is so far from the northern border, even if I have the heart to contact you, I can't find anyone."

"That's strange. Since you have no contact, why would the King of Zhenbei ask our Gu family to give you a dowry and send you to Beijiang City to get married?" The old lady stared at her gloomyly, grabbed the hair in her arms and let out a sharp cry: "And for this, your third cousin was detained in Beijiang City!" (To be continued)
