Chapter 712: Visiting Haifu
"In fact, the Hai family has no status in the court except for a concubine Shu."
Wang Kun only thought that she was worried about Xiaocheng's situation. In order to draw more connections, he explained seriously, "Although Concubine Shu is still favored, she is actually far away from court disputes. Some favors and rewards will never affect the decision in the court."
"But it is precisely because of this that Concubine Shu's favor is longer than others." Wang Kun analyzed carefully, "So Haifu is not a good goal, except for this relationship with Concubine Shu, everything is fine. there is none left."
In fact, Gu Chunzhu knew what Wang Kun said, and knew what he was thinking, but she didn't want to talk about Liu Xiniang's situation, so she just said, "Steward Wang, I know your worries. ."
"However, this time I went to the Hai family not for Xiaocheng's business, nor to win over Concubine Shu." Gu Chunzhu smiled slightly, she just wanted to get some gifts to support Liu Xiniang.
"It's just my personal business, so you can prepare the gift as I said, and you'll know when the time comes."
Seeing that what she said was clear, Wang Kun didn't ask any further questions, but did as she said.
Three days later, Gu Chunzhu went to Haifu with Wang Kun as promised.
In the flower hall, when Gu Chunzhu saw Madam Hai and Mrs Pan, but not Liu Xiniang, she felt a little uneasy in her heart.
However, she was still patient and did the proper etiquette first.
"Old Madam Hai, this pair of jade Ruyi is exactly the same. Whether it's carving or transparency, it's rare in the world." After Gu Chunzhu sat down, he asked Wang Kun to open the gift he brought, "This is a gift from the emperor a few days ago. Originally I wanted to find a good owner for them, but I didn't expect it to be you, Mrs. Hai."
As Gu Chunzhu said, he motioned Wang Kun to hand over the things. When Madam Hai saw it, she really liked it.
"Hey, today I agreed to visit the mansion, why haven't I seen my sister Xi Niang?"
Taking advantage of Madam Hai's gift, Gu Chunzhu hurriedly asked, "My sister is here, there is no reason why Xiaoxi can't come out. Could it be that Xi Niang is not feeling well?"
Her words successfully cooled down the atmosphere. Madam Hai was still holding the gift she gave. She was embarrassed and didn't know whether to accept it or not. With dissatisfied eyes, he glared at Pan Shi next to him.
Gu Chunzhu looked at the eyes that came and went between the two, and thought to herself, it seems that Xi Niang's situation is really bad. Even if Mrs. Hai has the heart, she will suppress Pan for her, but it is still beyond her power.
Thinking of this, she felt more distressed for Xi Niang, and could not wait to take her to the general's mansion immediately.
After waiting for a long time, when Gu Chunzhu saw that no one answered her, she continued, "It's better to let the maid go and spread the word again. I finally came here, and I always have to meet."
"No need to see, Concubine Liu is not feeling well, she is lying down!" Seeing her repeated urgings, Mrs Pan finally couldn't sit still, so she took the initiative to stop her, "You will definitely not be able to see her today."
Gu Chunzhu had suppressed his temper enough, but seeing that Pan was still so arrogant, little flames of anger had begun to accumulate in his heart.
"Mrs. Hai, I came to visit the mansion today. In addition to visiting you, there is another very important reason, that is to see my righteous sister. If I can't see anyone right now, I will be sent away, which is not good. ."
"What do you say, Mrs. Hai?" Gu Chunzhu deliberately increased his tone, inadvertently putting pressure on Mrs. Hai.
Sure enough, Madam Hai saw that she was so persistent and had no choice but to frown slightly and ask the maid beside her to call Liu Xiniang.
Gu Chunzhu sat very calmly and calmly, until Liu Xiniang came in, the expression on his face became more lively, and his eyes became more expectant.
"Xiaoxi, you're here." Gu Chunzhu deliberately got up with a bit of exaggeration, and held her hand very affectionately, but when she was about to speak, she found that there was a red mark on her left face.
Gu Chunzhu, who had endured Pan's three times and twice before, finally couldn't bear it after seeing the scars with his own eyes, and suddenly became irritable.
"Miss Pan, that's why you've been blocking me from seeing Xi Niang?" Gu Chunzhu didn't give Liu Xi Niang a chance to back down, grabbed her hand, and said she pulled her forward.
Gu Chunzhu's sudden appearance to protect Liu Xiniang made Mrs. Pan and Mrs. Hai a little surprised. Mrs. Pan's tongue was knotted for a while, and her words became awkward, "No... I don't know what you are talking about. !"
"I don't know?" Gu Chunzhu even raised his hand and pointed at Liu Xiniang's cheek clearly, "Isn't this obvious enough? How can it be obvious?"
"Since you don't admit it, I won't talk nonsense with you anymore." Gu Chunzhu said to Mrs Pan bluntly, even though Mrs. Gu Hai was still in front of him, "You are using lynching, don't you like to find someone to talk about it the most? Then I have to talk to you well today."
"It's okay to use lynching, even if you are sent to Dali Temple for investigation." Gu Chunzhu saw that Mrs. Pan was being pressed by her to not speak, and continued, "Mrs. Hai is here today, to be a witness for us. I will bring it personally. Go to Dali Temple and say it."
"Old Madam..." Seeing Gu Chunzhu's expression as if he was coming, Mrs. Pan let go of her usual arrogance and domineering, and asked Madam Hai for help, desperately trying to
Shaking his head, "I'm not going."
Liu Xiniang has always been submissive. Today, seeing Gu Chunzhu stand up for her like this, she was moved and felt inappropriate, so she tried to pull her beside her, "Sister, I'm fine, I don't need it."
However, Gu Chunzhu's temper hadn't subsided yet, so he naturally refused to listen to her so much. He just wanted to take Mrs Pan to Dali Temple together.
Gu Chunzhu pulled Mrs Pan towards the door, and when he was about to step out of the threshold, a person came in.
She was angry, and was not in the mood to see who the other party was. It wasn't until she was blocked from the way that she looked up and judged from the other party's clothes that he should be the owner of this family, that is, Master Hai.
"Master Hai?" When Gu Chunzhu set his mind and looked at Master Hai again, he suddenly found that the young master Hai in front of him looked familiar.
After a brief recollection, she realized that the young master Hai in front of her was the same young master Hai who opened a restaurant with her in the county town at that time.
Master Hai also recognized Gu Chunzhu, and the two of them were stunned for a moment, but the joy of meeting their old friend softened their anger, so she could let go of Pan and sit down calmly.
