Chapter 25:
Wei Hanzhang was also raised by Mrs. Gu, and she was still satisfied with this daughter-in-law.
Apart from her petite temperament, this girl has nothing wrong with her family affairs, appearance, conversation, etiquette, and behavior.
Wei Hanzhang also knew that Mrs. Gu giving her son two wives did not mean that she disliked him. It was just a rule of a wealthy family.
When your son grows up, he will naturally need someone to take care of him.
In short, this marriage is a marriage that both families are satisfied with.
Compared with Wei Hanyu, who married far away, and Wei Hanshuang, who was arranged to marry by her family, she should be content.
After two months, Wei Hanzhang stepped into the door, and Gu Yanran's gaze unconsciously put it on her, forbearing and eagerly.
The person involved was slow and hadn't noticed anything yet, but a few people passing by saw it clearly.
Looking at the appearance of her future son-in-law, Jiang was even more satisfied. After asking a few questions in detail, she smiled and said, "Ran Ran will take the husband of the Gu family to the garden for a walk. We adults can talk among ourselves for a while."
Wei Hanzhang was stunned, turned his head and glanced at Gu Yunran, met his eyes, lowered his eyes and said, "Follow me."
As soon as he went out, Wei Hanzhang waved away the two maids, Luzhu and Lulan, and took Gu Yunran towards the second room.
She strode in front, Gu Yunran following behind.
"Ran Ran, are you still angry with me?" Gu Yunran grabbed her sleeve and whispered: "I have written you so many letters, why don't you reply to any of them?"
Wei Hanzhang did not answer and asked: "When did you arrive in the capital?"
“Yesterday,” when Gu Yunran saw her turning around, he felt happy and said, “I came to see you before the house was sorted out.”
Actually, if it wasn't the first time for him to come alone, he would have thought that he would come first yesterday.
They had never seen each other for so many days. Gu Yunran was panicking in his heart. He was inexplicably panicked and was scolded by his father for being useless.
“Ran Ran, I will come to your house tomorrow to propose marriage. You must marry me quickly.”
Wei Hanzhang was about to speak when he heard such a thunder, and his eyes suddenly widened: "So fast?"
"You have to hurry up." Gu Yunran's voice was low: "My Ran Ran is so good, what if someone takes a fancy to her? You don't know how panicked I am when you haven't heard from you for two months."
Gu Yunran is used to being wanton in Xuzhou, and the Gu family is close to the Jiang family. When he goes to Jiang Mansion, it is like going back to his own home, and he can see his Ranran every day.
It just so happened that after having a bad temper and being separated for so long, there were no letters at all.
Over the past two months, Gu Yunran has experienced what it means to worry about gains and losses, what it means to think about things day and night, and what it means to toss and turn.
He was not afraid of anything else, except that the marriage contract between the two of them had not been officially concluded, but was just a verbal agreement.
What if there is a higher-ranking son in the capital who takes a fancy to his Ran Ran, what will happen if the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion is tempted to break the contract?
Having been restless for so long, she still looked distant when they met again, which made Gu Yunran feel very uncomfortable.
I couldn't help but hold her hand and said softly: "Ran Ran don't want to?"
Wei Hanzhang lowered his eyes and said nothing, hesitating in his heart.
"Are you really still angry with me?" Gu Yunran said anxiously: "I have sent those two maids far away. Please don't quarrel with me anymore, okay?"
So what if you send it away? The traces of its existence cannot be erased...
If it can happen once, it will happen a second time.
Wei Hanzhang was thinking about it, but her reaction was not as strong as when she first mentioned it. She asked: "Would your mother say that I am jealous?"
"Don't worry Ran Ran, my mother is extremely satisfied with you." Seeing that she was still willing to worry about this, Gu Yunran breathed a sigh of relief and said: "They are just two maids, and I sent them away. How can she remember you. "
Hearing this, Wei Hanzhang smiled bitterly. No matter how smart a young man Gu Yunran was, he could not understand the lawsuit between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the back house.
No matter how satisfied Mrs. Gu is with her, she will still be measured by the standards of a daughter-in-law.
The requirements of wealthy families for their daughters-in-law are without exception, and they must be tolerant and generous. How could she not care if she knew she couldn't even accommodate two bedrooms?
However, these things can be put aside for now, the most important thing right now...
Wei Hanzhang withdrew his hand, raised his eyes and said, "Do you know about my grandfather's family?"
Gu Yunran was startled: "I know something."
"Is it possible that my uncle was wrongly accused?" Wei Hanzhang reasoned: "How can he, a small official with no real power, be involved in a corruption case?"
"Ran Ran..." Gu Yunran looked at her worriedly and said, "The case was personally investigated by His Highness the Crown Prince, and there will be no mistakes."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince... investigated it personally?
Wei Hanzhang's last hope was shattered and his face turned pale.
Your Majesty has long ignored the affairs of the state, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince oversees the country. If the **** of the entire Jiang family back to the capital was ordered by His Highness after personal investigation, is a trial after they arrive in the capital still necessary?
It’s just a procedure.
Seeing her like this, Gu Yunran held her arm and whispered: "Don't worry too much. My father said that your grandfather left a good impression on His Highness when he was an official in the past. His Highness specifically ordered everyone except you to Except for my uncle’s family, no one else in the Jiang family needs to wear shackles.”
"Without shackles and shackles..." Wei Hanzhang repeated slowly, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "Do you know what specifically my uncle committed?"
“I don’t know the details of the case. My father only said that the uncle of the Jiang family was involved in the corruption of officials and banks to build the dam. Your other two uncles were not involved.”
Gu Yunran comforted him softly: "With His Highness's special care for your grandfather, I believe that the other members of the Jiang family will not be implicated."
Your Highness, Your Highness, the life and death of hundreds of people in the Jiang family are all in the hands of this Highness.
The best result now is for one person to do the work and not to involve the other two members of the Jiang family.
Thinking of the big house…
Wei Hanzhang asked: "Is my eldest cousin married?"
"Married," Gu Yunran paused and said, "It was the day she came back from three dynasties that happened to the Jiang family."
“…” Wei Hanzhang was silent for a long time, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, “I hope her husband’s family will treat her well.”
The daughter of a criminal officer will be very anxious and uneasy when she marries her family. It will also affect the future of the heirs in the family.
Gu Yunran looked a little uncomfortable. When Wei Hanzhang caught a glimpse of it, he couldn't help but said anxiously: "If there is anything else, please tell me!"
There was a trace of unbearability in his eyes: "After the Jiang family's accident, Miss Jiang was abandoned by her husband's family, and now she is escorted to Beijing with Uncle Jiang and the others."
Miss Jiang was abandoned by her husband’s family…
Wei Hanzhang froze.
Sure enough!
The most worrying thing has happened.
Jiang Zhiqin, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, unexpectedly became a concubine in such a short period of time.
After her uncle is convicted, she will most likely follow in Cao Xinrou's footsteps and join the Jiaofang Department and become an official prostitute.
Wei Hanzhang was in a state of confusion. She thought of Cao Xinrou and Cao Xinrou who jumped to her death.
She couldn't save Cao Xinrou, nor could she save her eldest cousin.
