My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 482 Sui Houzhu

He gestured to the nurse behind him, and then took Du Jingyi two steps forward, bowed again and said.

"Hello, Madam."

Du Jingyi also nodded slightly, very politely.

When the four children saw the queen, some curiosity flashed in their big eyes.

Now that Tai Ge'er has grown up, he originally looked very similar to the old Marshal Gu, and now it seems that even his aura is gradually approaching. Empress Guo's heart moved, and her nose was a little sour. Then she waved to him and said gently and kindly.

"Tai Ge'er, right? Come to see me."

Tai Ge'er was not afraid of the stage. He walked forward and bowed respectfully according to the rules he had learned in the past two days.

"Gu Yunzhan greets the Queen, please be safe."

He may not understand what this sentence means, but he repeats it every day, so he didn't say a word wrong.

"Okay, An, An, I'm fine. But you, did you feel uncomfortable on the way back from Jinling?"

Tai Ge'er shook his head, then showed a childish expression, and said with a smile.

"Tai Ge'er doesn't feel dizzy on a big ship, it's beautiful."

Although his words were not yet fully coherent, everyone understood his meaning, and Queen Guo looked at him with great emotion.

"If the old Marshal Gu and the old lady Gu were still alive, they would be happy to see such a lovely great-grandson."

Queen Guo's words made everyone present feel nostalgic, but the past was gone with the wind, and the old friends were gone, so many things could only be kept in the heart, and it was not easy to replace them.

Wiping the corners of her eyes, Queen Guo said to ease the atmosphere.

"Look, I'm the first to feel sad on such a great day. Come here, brothers, let me see if they look alike?"

After saying that, Du Jingyi and Gu Shaoyu pulled the three brothers forward. The three of them couldn't speak clearly, so they just clasped their hands and bowed like little Fuwa and said.

"May your majesty be well."

Queen Guo looked carefully, which made the people around who had never seen the three brothers look over curiously. They saw that the three brothers, although born in the same womb, were not very similar, whether in height, appearance, or expression and temperament.

"What are their names?"

"Your Majesty, the eldest is Ming Ge'er, the second is Cong Ge'er, and the third is Wen Ge'er. They were all given names when our grandmother was alive."

Gu Shaoyu explained while pointing at the children and speaking to Queen Guo.

Queen Guo nodded and continued.

"Ming-ge'er looks like your wife, Cong-ge'er looks like you, but I can't tell who Wen-ge'er looks like at the moment?"

"Your Majesty, he looks like my father-in-law. If they were here, you would recognize him at a glance."

"So that's how it is. You two are good at giving birth. One of your children looks like his great-grandfather, one looks like his maternal grandfather, one looks like his father, and one looks like his mother. You have taken the advantages of several families. You are a blessed child."

With such praise from the queen, Gu Shaoyu and Du Jingyi naturally wanted to thank her.

But the talent knelt slightly and was stopped by Queen Guo.

"I called you here to have a reunion dinner. Don't bow and kneel all the time. It's too formal and awkward."

"Yes."

After saying this, Queen Guo glanced at Eunuch Hu behind her. He clapped his hands and eight palace maids entered the hall. The lacquer trays in their hands were filled with various rewards. Then Queen Guo raised her hand to the palace maid on the right hand side.

The palace maid understood and walked forward, holding out the lacquer tray. There were four boxes in it, and four large oriental pearls of similar size were placed inside.

But one of them was particularly white and round, and it looked like a crystal clear pearl when viewed from close up. Gu Shaoyu frowned slightly when he saw the pearl, not to mention the others.

"The one in the middle is the Suihou Pearl. I have treasured it since I got it a few years ago. Now I give it to Tai Ge'er. It can be regarded as a gift from me to congratulate him on his succession to the position of Gu Family Duke. As for the other three, they are also rare pearls from the East China Sea. Give them to the three brothers to enjoy."

"My Queen, the Suihou Pearl is too valuable. Please..."

Before Gu Shaoyu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Queen Guo. She just waved her hand and said.

"It's just a pearl. No matter how valuable it is, it is not as important as the affection between the Gu family and Yu Daxing, right, Prince."

The prince who was suddenly named was also stunned for a moment, but soon stepped forward and said.

"Mother is right. Shaoyu, don't refuse it. Accept it."

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu also knew that he couldn't refuse it this time, so he could only bite the bullet and accept it. Although Du Jingyi didn't know much about the story behind the Suihou Pearl, he knew that it must be a hot potato when he saw his general refuse it.

Sure enough, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across the Crown Princess's eyes.

The Sui Marquis' Pearl, such a precious thing, was given to the Gu family's son just because her mother said it was a reward. She was naturally unhappy, but no matter how unhappy she was, she would not show it on the surface. Therefore, when she raised her head again, she still had a faint smile on her face, as if the emotion just now had never existed.

"Okay, don't be restrained. The peach blossoms outside are in full bloom. Go and have a look. It's rare for my father and mother to come to the palace. I will talk to them."

"Yes, my queen."

After receiving the queen's order, everyone naturally went to the garden of Changchun Palace to watch the peach blossoms in full bloom. As for Prime Minister Guo and Mrs. Guo, they stayed in the main hall to talk to the queen.

After leaving, Du Jingyi asked quietly.

"General, what's the point of this bead..."

"The Pearl of the Sui Dynasty is the most precious treasure of Daxing. When the prince got married, everyone thought that this pearl would be given to the prince and his concubine, but it turned out not to be the case. I didn't expect that it was given to Brother Tai today. I was just afraid that he was young. Even with such a generous gift, someone will always have other thoughts."

Gu Shaoyu's tone was full of worry, and Du Jingyi became uneasy after knowing the whole story. He looked at his innocent and lively son beside him, and for a moment he didn't know whether to be happy or confused.

In the main hall, there were only three Queen Guo, Prime Minister Guo and Mrs. Guo.

And Guo Xiang also sighed and said.

"Why do you have to be like this, my queen? Those beads..."

"Father, that bead was originally given to the daughter by the Gu family. Now it should be returned to the Gu family, right?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Guo suddenly felt a sore nose.

The bead was originally an heirloom of the Gu family. It was originally given to Queen Guo because it was a token of love between the Gu family uncle and her, but she didn't expect that they would get married by accident.

Therefore, the bead was the only thing around Queen Guo that was related to the Gu family. Now that it was returned to Brother Tai, Xiang Guo and Mrs. Guo always felt a little uneasy. (End of chapter)
