Chapter 686: Mother, have you ever heard of Father?
Thinking about it, he went back to his own yard and cleaned up his property.
Although his parents would give him a betrothal gift, that gift would never be enough!
When my sister-in-law got married, the betrothal gift was thirty-two loads, so my parents must have only contributed thirty-two loads, and I had to add another sixteen loads, making it forty-eight loads.
When Pei Yuanqi proposed marriage, he only had 32 bearers of gowns. I must have more than that to make him understand that the person he didn't know how to cherish is a treasure in the hearts of others.
Although he was not as rich as Gu Zizhan, he spent sixty-eight pounds at a time.
But we can’t treat Sister Zi Yan unfairly.
On the other side, Princess Rui also came to Gu Mansion.
She was happy when she knew that the Queen Mother had issued an imperial decree.
Originally, she was worried about Zi Yan's marriage, but she didn't expect such a big pie to fall from the sky, which almost knocked her out.
Gu Ziyan felt relieved when she saw the smile on her mother's face. Every time she looked at her mother, she was always a little worried.
Princess Rui looked at Gu Ziyan and said, "When is the marriage?"
Gu Ziyan replied truthfully: "August 6th."
"Well, there are still three months left. Time is a little tight, but it's okay. By the way, you should go back to the palace! You can't get married with your brother here, right?"
After listening to Princess Rui's words, Gu Ziyan also understood that she definitely could not marry in her brother's family.
Then he nodded: "Okay, I will go back to the palace before getting married!"
Princess Rui frowned, "Before the wedding? They're going back now. Next, they will definitely look at the date and propose, and they must go to the palace! They also have to go through the three letters and six ceremonies. What are you talking about here?"
Gu Ziyan was silent. She knew that what her mother said made sense, but...
She felt comfortable living here. Besides, Mo Yan was with Song Yu and the others every day, so she had a companion.
Although he also has two cousins when he goes back, she can see that Mo Yan likes this side more.
Gu Ziyan smiled and said, "Mother, if you need me to propose marriage, I will go back later."
Princess Rui listened and said, "You are not still thinking about showing up in public every day! That won't do. You are getting married soon. Don't go to the store. Don't let Zheng Jin's family have anything to say."
Gu Ziyan was stunned. She couldn't go out before she got married, but Jinshu said that her freedom would not be restricted after she got married.
Gu Ziyan said boldly: "Jinshu said that even if we get married in the future, I can still do what I want."
Princess Rui looked very disappointed with her. This is what a man would definitely say before getting married!
But which man would really like his wife to be in the spotlight?
"He's just talking. No man likes a woman to show her face outside."
Gu Ziyan retorted: "Shu Ran is still doing business outside!"
Princess Rui said in a dissatisfied tone: "She is a merchant, are you?"
"Then...Xia Xia also often goes out! Although we are women, why do we have to confine ourselves in the backyard?" Gu Ziyan tried to reason with her mother boldly.
Princess Rui was shocked when she heard that her originally gentle self was now able to talk back to her because of Shen Xia.
Then he said, "She is a country girl and has no education. Don't you have any education either? Besides, a woman should obey her husband after marriage. Isn't that natural?"
Gu Ziyan frowned: "Then mother, have you ever heard of father..." Gu Ziyan regretted it after she said it.
“Pah…”
Princess Rui looked at her daughter and saw that she actually said this to herself.
Just a slap in the face.
Gu Ziyan felt a burning pain on her face, but she didn't feel very sad in her heart. She didn't know what kind of person her mother was.
My mother controls everyone in a powerful way. Since childhood, our food, clothing and other expenses have been arranged according to her wishes. If it is not up to her wishes, she will be dissatisfied.
She said that she would obey her husband after marriage, but her father always tolerated her and let her make the decisions on all matters in the mansion.
My father never cared.
Princess Rui looked at her daughter covering her face, felt the pain in her hands, and wanted to reach out to comfort her.
But Gu Ziyan stepped back gently.
Princess Rui's hand missed.
What is she doing this for?
It's all for her. She has been divorced once. It's so hard for her to find such a good marriage. Shouldn't she cherish it more?
How many people in the capital were jealous of her and were waiting to laugh at her.
She can only be happy this time and nothing can go wrong.
It’s up to you if the man is not married yet, but once you really do that.
Long-term exposure.
Friends around me said they don’t care if it happens once or twice, but what about three or four times?
After a long time, when more people talk about it, the man will still care.
What should she do then?
Are we going to leave again?
Princess Rui opened her mouth, looked at Gu Ziyan's red eyes and murmured, "You are already a mother, you should understand that your mother is the last person who will harm you."
Gu Ziyan took a breath and said, "Mother, your love is suffocating. What you think is good may not be really good!"
Princess Rui was stunned and thought carefully about her daughter's words. What she thought was good was not really good.
Princess Rui's face was gloomy. After a while, she said, "You are old enough now. I can't control you anymore. You can do whatever you want!"
After saying this, he left sadly.
Nanny Chen, who was standing nearby, watched her princess turn away in despair and hurried forward to support her.
Princess Rui got on the carriage.
Still in a daze.
Nanny Chen comforted her, "Princess, don't be sad. The young lady will know that you are doing this for her own good."
Princess Rui sighed and said, "I'm afraid she will find out too late!"

Shen Xia sat in Xiaotian's yard for a while and then returned to her own yard.
Just as she reached the gate of the yard, Shen Xia saw Feng Qi standing there.
I saw Feng standing tall and quietly waiting for something.
When he saw Shen Xia coming, he immediately stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said, "Princess."
Shen Xia nodded slightly to show her response and then went straight to the point: "How is it? Did you find out the results?"
Feng Qi nodded and replied in a low voice: "My lord, I have already checked it out. It was indeed done by Madam Qin's people."
Hearing this answer, Shen Xia thought it was just as expected.
She had long felt that this matter was most likely related to the Qin family. After all, only a woman would come up with such a sinister trick to deal with her.
As for the Xu family, it’s hard to say.
Feng Qi continued to ask: "Princess, how should we deal with it next?"
After thinking for a moment, Shen Xia raised a sly smile and whispered, "Take your men and sneak into the side yard of the Qin Mansion tonight and set a fire there, but remember to put it out afterwards. If she uses a shady trick, I will use an open trick to let her know what's going on."
Feng Qi turned around and was about to leave to carry out his mission.
