Chapter 347 She Should Fight for Herself

Ruan Yan was very nervous when she was so close to him for the first time, and she couldn't help but feel shy as a girl. Her eyes were full of spring love.

She wanted to get closer to him and wondered how she could let him take her away.

When she was a few steps away from him, he only glanced at her lightly, and she felt a chill, and warned herself not to lose her sense of propriety, otherwise she would not be able to enter his backyard, and she was afraid that her life would be lost.

Everything that happened afterwards was as she expected. While she was afraid, she was even more attracted by his charm.

Ruan Yan began to envy and even envy the lady Gu, whom she had never met, for being respected and loved by him.

She bit her lower lip, looked at the fainted Li Yushi, and thought of Zuo Shilang, whose face suddenly changed, and she was thoughtful.

The people in Li Yushi's mansion took him away.

Ruan Yan turned around and looked at the rows of red lanterns hanging on the eaves of Cuiyan Tower, just like the girls in the building, blooming to their heart's content, and when they burned out, they ended up in a desolate scene.

Her fingers were tightly pinched into her palms. Human desires are terrible. Once they are released from the cage, they will backfire on all rationality.

She had no delusions, but she got a chance. Although she failed, the desire grew like a vine, tightly binding her in it. She could no longer struggle out, so she had to let herself sink.

Ruan Yan took a deep breath and stepped into Cuiyan Tower.

Mother Wu of Cuiyan Tower saw her coming in, frowned and said: "Ruan Yan, I gave you a chance. If you don't catch it today, you will have to receive guests tomorrow."

Ruan Yan's face turned pale, and her gentle tone revealed a hint of begging: "Mother Wu, please give me another month. If I can't catch the noble man again, I will listen to you and receive guests."

Mother Wu listened to her gentle voice, her bones were about to be soft, and she looked at her pear blossoms with tears and pitiful appearance, and began to calculate in her heart.

A man like Gu Huaizhi has a clean backyard, and there are no other women except his wife who was married in a formal way.

My wife has been pregnant for ten months and is still in confinement.

There is no man who is greedy for women.

If Ruan Yan really succeeds, it will be a lot of good for her.

"Okay, I'll give you another month." Mother Wu's eyes turned around her face, frowning and said: "Lord Li chose you today because you look like Madam Gu. Lord Gu and Madam Gu are a loving couple, you should work harder on this face."

Ruan Yan heard the meaning of Mother Wu's words, which was to let her imitate Su Wan.

She bowed: "Thank you, Mother Wu, for your advice."

Mother Wu gave her a booklet.

Ruan Yan took it, only to see a heat on her cheeks on the cover of the book, and stuffed it into her sleeve in a panic.

She had no other choice but to seize this opportunity tightly.

Even... even if it was death, it was better than a pair of jade arms resting on thousands of people.

"You can't achieve anything if you are thin-skinned." Mother Wu's eyes became obscure, and she carefully took out an invitation to the full-month gift of the Gu Mansion and gave it to her: "Ruan Yan, this is something I spent a lot of effort to get. I hope you can make full use of it and live up to the opportunity I gave you."

——

When Gu Huaizhi returned to the mansion, the child had already fallen asleep, and Su Wan was sitting on the couch wearing a thin shirt and drinking soup.

"What soup are you drinking today?" Gu Huaizhi leaned over to take a look. In the soup bowl held by Su Wan, there were pig's trotters and peanuts: "Eating pig's trotters so late will make you sick. I brought pigeon soup. It tastes good. You can try it."

Gu Huaizhi put the food box on the table, took out a bowl of pigeon soup from it and put it in front of Su Wan. Seeing that she didn't move, she frowned and stared at him.

"Can't drink it?"

Su Wan didn't say anything, grabbed his sleeve and pulled him to her side, leaned over to smell him, and a light fragrance of powder was revealed.

"Where did you go today?" Su Wan pointed at a bowl of pigeon soup and asked with a stern face: "Eating a meal, and there is a woman serving?"

Gu Huaizhi was so wronged that he confessed the truth: "Madam, this was Li Yushi's trick. I didn't let other women get close to the banquet in Cuiyan Tower."

"You were a juren before, and no one won you over. Now you are in a high position, powerful, young and promising, I'm afraid many people will rush to you and put people in your backyard." Su Wan believed that he didn't touch other women , but thinking that someone had stuffed a woman into his house while she was in confinement, he felt very unhappy: "I told you before that I don't share a husband with other women, you can do whatever you want."

"Wanwan, I have a lot of official duties now, and I don't have enough time to spend with you and the children every day, so how can I have the energy to mess with other women?" Gu Huaizhi picked up a bowl of pigeon soup and scooped a spoonful to feed her mouth: "Tomorrow, let Censor Meng report Censor Li and dismiss him from his post."

Su Wan then opened her mouth and drank the soup.

Gu Huaizhi fed her the soup slowly, took out a few jade cards from his sleeve and placed them in front of her: "Li Yushi held a party today and brought a few wealthy businessmen to donate money to the relief association. Because of...something, they gave twice as much silver to apologize, and went to the bank to collect the money with the jade cards."

Su Wan's anger disappeared completely, and she took a look at the jade cards, and her eyes burst into light: "They are giving up their blood."

Gu Huaizhi said "hmm" and said slowly: "Forget about these wealthy businessmen, and the other officials will all be strictly investigated."

If you are upright, you are not afraid of your shadow.

If you specialize in crooked things, I'm afraid your hands are not clean.

"Keep this jade token away. If they really commit crimes, confiscate the money and donate it to the relief society after clearing the road." Su Wan is not an ignorant person, and said in a deep voice: "You should also check those wealthy businessmen. , The foundation is clean, I have to cooperate with them and never let them suffer. "

Gu Huaizhi laughed and said, "You want to tie them into a pirate ship?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Who is the pirate ship?" Su Wan pinched his waist and said angrily: "I haven't settled the score with you yet! You go to sleep in the study tonight, and you are not allowed to sleep with me or my daughter!"

Gu Huaizhi was kicked out.

"Bang——"

The door closed in front of him.

"..."

Gu Huaizhi looked at the cold moon in the sky and felt that the sky was about to enter summer, and there was a faint chill of late spring.

Their minds seem to be clearer, and their punishment is too light.

——

Early the next morning.

Su Wan dressed Gu Jiaojiao in a bright red dress embroidered with the word "Fu", and put a bracelet on her wrist and a longevity lock around her neck.

For the first time, Gu Huaizhi did not circle around the child. There were several jade pendants placed on the table. He was carefully selecting them. He would wear them for Gu Jiaojiao at the ceremony later.

He asked people to carefully carve each piece and put it in the national temple for consecration. It was difficult to choose.

Su Wan came over and picked out a jade pendant with only Gu Jiaojiao's name engraved on it: "This is it. If you keep going, all the guests will be here."

Gu Huaizhi took the jade pendant and looked at it carefully. He couldn't find anything wrong with it and put it into his sleeve with satisfaction: "I will go to receive the guests first. You and the child are waiting here."

"When your father and mother are here later, you can just invite them here." Su Wan arranged his robes.

Gu Huaizhi responded and went to the front hall.

Many guests have come to the house, and they are all sitting in the front hall.

Ruan Yan was sitting in the corner, looking at the door absentmindedly. Suddenly she saw the man coming against the light, and her heart beat rapidly.
