I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

It is said that after Fu Xiaozhen and his colleagues finished their work and came out of the shop, they happened to see Gao Ni and Fu Yuzheng's carriage approaching from not far away.

Two teams of Jinyiwei led the way.

When my colleagues saw this, they were so scared that they trembled!

Then, they all returned to the shops as quickly as possible... and hid.

Fu Xiaozhen: ...

After a moment of pause, they realized that they were all afraid of Gao Ni and Jin Yiwei.

He shook his head slightly and smiled, then turned around and walked towards the carriage.

In the carriage, Fu Yuzheng saw her third uncle approaching from a distance through the window, and quickly stuck her head out, smiling and greeting him, "Third Uncle."

Because there is some distance, the voice is very loud.

After Fu Xiaozhen heard this, his smile became even brighter. He walked closer and said with a smile, "Zheng'er, are you and Gao Ni free the day after tomorrow? I'll be on vacation the day after tomorrow and want to hold a simple family gathering."

Family gathering?

The third room holds a family gathering?

Hearing these four words, Fu Yuzheng was stunned at first, then nodded and smiled without hesitation: "Okay!"

You know, in the past, flower-viewing banquets and bonfire parties were all held in the big house.

Because the third wife was a concubine and a daughter of a concubine, her uncle and his aunt kept a low profile for more than 20 years. Even when her uncle was promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, the third wife never held a family gathering alone.

Therefore, Fu Yuzheng found it quite interesting.

Gao Ni also had a day off that day, and seeing that his little wife liked it, he naturally doted on her and was happy to accompany her back to her parents' home.

So he nodded and smiled, "Third Uncle, OK, Zheng'er and I will go the day after tomorrow."

After finishing their business, Fu Xiaozhen and Zheng'er exchanged a few more pleasantries and then watched them leave in the carriage.

Just at this moment, Fu Xiaozhen turned around and saw the fourth girl Fu Yuxuan and her fiancé Chen Peiting standing not far behind her.

Judging from their appearance, they came out of a roadside shop and had been waiting for a while.

Fu Yuxuan had indeed been waiting for a long time. When her uncle was talking to Fu Yuzheng and his wife, she and Chen Peiting had already arrived.

Seeing that Third Uncle had finally noticed them, Fu Yuxuan was the first to step forward and greet them: "Hello, Third Uncle."

As the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family, Chen Peiting was very graceful and well-educated. He followed his fiancée to greet him and bowed respectfully, saying, "Meet Third Uncle."

Fu Xiaozhen asked with a smile: "Are you two out shopping?"

Fu Yuxuan smiled and nodded: "Uncle San, yes."

Then Fu Xiaozhen smiled and nodded: "Then you two continue shopping, I have something to do and I'll leave first." After saying that, he really turned around and left.

Fu Yuxuan: ???

Just now, she clearly heard Uncle San say that he was going to hold a family gathering, and he specially invited Fu Yuzheng and Gao Ni and his wife. Why didn't he mention her and Chen Peiting at all?

Even Third Uncle has chosen to take sides and completely abandoned their Second Branch?

Abandoned her too?

The feeling of being abandoned and rejected made Fu Yuxuan feel as if she were being stabbed by needles. She couldn't help but clench the handkerchief in her hand.

Chen Peiting felt very distressed when he saw this. He reached out his big hand and held her slightly cold little hand with his warm big hand.

Trying to comfort her, "Xuan'er, it's not your fault."

Hearing this, Fu Yuxuan's eyelashes suddenly filled with tears.

Fortunately, she still has Chen Peiting.

Chen Peiting, who is considerate and never leaves her side.

Fu Yuxuan held Chen Peiting's hand with her backhand, and took the initiative to open her ten fingers and hold his ten fingers tightly. Today, the only happiness she can grasp is Chen Peiting.

She had nothing left but him.

~

It is said that before the carriage set off, Fu Yuzheng actually saw Fu Yuxuan and Chen Peiting, but she pretended not to see them.

The reason is very simple.

——She doesn’t like people from the second house.

——Gao Ni was at odds with the Prime Minister, and he also disliked Chen Peiting.

Two unwelcome people suddenly appeared before their eyes, and the couple naturally ignored them.

However, this did not prevent Fu Yuzheng from talking about the two of them in front of Gao Ni.

"Brother Ni, Chen Peiting and Fu Yuxuan have been engaged for a long time, why haven't you married her yet?" Fu Yuzheng asked puzzledly.

Upon hearing this, Gao Ni deliberately kept the matter in suspense and said, "It's a long story." After that, he moved his cheek closer.

Fu Yuzheng: ...

This bastard wants to take advantage of her again.

But in order to find out the inside story, she had to put her little mouth close to the man and give him a big kiss on the cheek.

There was a "baji" sound, which was particularly loud.

Gao Ni was satisfied, and then he squinted his eyes and smiled:

"The wedding date had already been set, but unfortunately, three months after the engagement, the Prime Minister's wife discovered it... My son secretly emptied his private treasury and gave all the money to Fu Yuxuan as a betrothal gift."

Fu Yuzheng knew about this, but the betrothal gifts were not put into the warehouse of the second house. Instead, they were kept in a rented house outside the mansion.

"Why did the Prime Minister's wife make a fuss after finding out?" Fu Yuzheng asked curiously.

Gao Ni said, "Well, the mother and son had a very unhappy quarrel, but that was not the main reason. Later, Fu Yuxuan's elder brother and mother met with accidents one after another, which made the Prime Minister's wife completely give up the idea of ​​marrying him."

This delay has lasted until now.

Fu Yuzheng was still puzzled: "But the emperor himself granted their marriage. How dare the prime minister's wife disobey his order?"

Gao Ni smiled and said, "There is no need to disobey the order. We just need to implement a strategy - delay. Who knows when Fu Yuxuan will get into trouble, such as death by accident, and the marriage will be automatically cancelled."

Fu Yuzheng: ???

You actually have this kind of idea in mind?

Fu Yuzheng was stunned.

Gao Ni smiled and nodded: "Do you think the Prime Minister's family...are good people?"

The Prime Minister’s wife naturally looked down on Fu Yuxuan, but the more important reason was that the Prime Minister himself also looked down on her.

Without the Prime Minister's tacit consent, how could his wife dare to delay and delay on her own and keep delaying until now?

You know, Chen Peiting is not young anymore.

Fu Yuzheng suddenly thought of a possibility: "Brother Ni, do you think the Prime Minister's family would deliberately create an accident to cause Fu Yuxuan...to die?"

Gao Ni smiled and said, "According to the Prime Minister's ruthless character, it is very likely."

Upon hearing this, Fu Yuzheng felt a chill down her spine. It turned out that being the daughter-in-law of the Prime Minister... was so dangerous.

——If you don’t like it, just kill him!

~

The couple talked all the way, and before they knew it, the carriage arrived at the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion.

Unfortunately, just as Gao Ni carried Fu Yuzheng down from the carriage, another carriage slowly stopped and Gao Yan and Shen Yan and their wife got out.

Gao Yan doted on Shen Yan very much and personally carried Shen Yan down to the ground.

At this time, Shen Yan put her arms around Gao Yan's neck and asked shyly, "Brother Yan, am I very heavy? Are you tired?"

Gao Yan smiled dotingly: "My wife is slim and slender, how can she be heavy?" After saying that, he deliberately held Shen Yan and walked two more steps.

Shen Yan laughed happily.

Gao Yan also smiled more brightly.

The smile on Gao Yan's face suddenly disappeared until he saw Gao Ni and Fu Yuzheng.

Seeing that her husband's face looked strange, Shen Yan quickly followed his gaze and saw Gao Ni and Fu Yuzheng had just got off the carriage and were standing at the gate.

Shen Yan quickly jumped from Gao Yan's arms, and then... then what to do. To be honest, she was very confused.

Logically speaking, Gao Yan was the prince of the mansion, and she was the prince's wife. Gao Ni was a concubine's daughter, so she and Fu Yuzheng should come to pay their respects to them.

But Gao Ni is too powerful to come over to pay his respects.

And it was the first time that Shen Yan met Gao Ni alone after getting married, and she really didn't know how to greet each other.

She glanced at Gao Yan.

However, Gao Yan neither stepped forward nor bowed. He just stood there and perfunctorily called out, "Big Brother," and left it at that.

She didn't even call me "sister-in-law".

It was clear at first glance that Gao Yan did not like Gao Ni and Fu Yuzheng.

This made Shen Yan, as a wife, even more confused about how to behave in a polite manner.

Just when she was in a dilemma, she saw Gao Ni ignored Gao Yan and directly held Fu Yuzheng's hand. The couple walked into the gate intimately, without even glancing at them, and disappeared behind the screen wall.

Shen Yan: ???

Is this a complete blind eye and total neglect?

How could the relationship between the two brothers be so bad?

Gao Yan snorted when he saw this, then comforted his wife:

"They both have their eyes on the top of their heads. They are the most uneducated. From now on, if you see them, just avoid them in advance."

Shen Yan nodded with a smile.

Seeing that she was so well-behaved and listened to him in everything, Gao Yan was very satisfied. He held his wife's hand intimately, and the two of them walked into the door in love.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived at the hanging flower gate leading to the backyard, he ran into Lady Lin, the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo.

Gao Yan paused and had to bow and greet: "Mother."

Shen Yan also knelt down and greeted her immediately: "Daughter-in-law greets mother."

Lin rolled her eyes at Shen Yan, and then asked Shen Yan: "Where did you go?"

Shen Yan smiled and said, "The prince and I went shopping."

shop?

Lin quickly looked at the maid behind Shen Yan, and saw that the maid was indeed holding two brocade boxes in her hands. Needless to say, she had gone out to spend money again.

Lin said unhappily, "Don't you know that your husband is short of money? Why is he buying himself new things? Is he wasting money?"

Shen Yan's face turned pale, and she hurriedly tried to explain something...

At this time, Gao Yan took over the conversation and said, "Mother, please don't wrongly accuse Yan'er. She didn't buy anything for herself. She used her dowry to buy two types of sheep-hair brushes for me."

When Mrs. Lin heard that the money was spent on her son, she finally felt relieved.

But when I think about it carefully, that’s not right. It’s her own dowry?

When Shen Yan got married, wasn't all her dowry carried into the main room's storehouse? How come Shen Yan also hid some of it?

What a cunning fox!

On this point, Gao Yan stood on his wife's side.

His wife's money is his, and the dowry is in her hands as if it were in his own.

Therefore, Gao Yan protected his wife and was unwilling to haggle with his mother over the dowry. After the formalities, he lied that he was tired from shopping, took his wife's hand and left in a neat and tidy manner.

Lin stared at their departing backs and bit her lip angrily.

~

By the way, after Fu Yuzheng followed Gao Ni back to Linfeng Courtyard, the intimate scenes of Gao Yan and Shen Yan kept flashing in her mind.

Counting the days, Shen Yan had been married to Gao Yan for a full month and a few days.

In her previous life, Shen Yan had suffered from morning sickness just ten days after marrying her uncle.

In this life, there is still no movement?

Could it be that her fate had changed in this life, and Shen Yan didn't get pregnant before marriage?

Fu Yuzheng called Qiaomei and quietly instructed her, "Ask someone to pay attention to the wife's recent diet and physical condition, and report any abnormalities."

Qiaomei nodded and went downstairs to make arrangements immediately.

Unexpectedly, good news came that night.

The little maid in charge of surveillance said:

"Madam, during dinner tonight, the Crown Prince's wife vomited when she saw the steamed pork with rice flour. She simply ate some vegetables and left the table."

Fu Yuzheng immediately asked, "Have you asked the court doctor to come and take a look?"

The little maid shook her head and said, "Young Madam, no. The Crown Prince's wife said that she had caught a cold these past two days and her stomach was upset, so she couldn't stand meat or fish. There was no need to call a doctor."

"Did the prince believe it?" Fu Yuzheng asked.

The little maid nodded: "The prince considerately picked up a small bowl of vegetables for the prince's wife and never mentioned the matter of calling a doctor again."

Fu Yuzheng sneered in her heart.

Well, it seems that I have to rely on her to expose Shen Yan’s true face in this life.
