Unexpectedly, Yuanshan smiled respectfully, but he did not accept it.

"Fourth Miss, I am extremely willing to serve you, but I think that it would be better if you could give it to the Master when you go back and visit him. The Master would be happier."

Gu Hua Jing smiled. Yuanshan was afraid that he wouldn't return after this, right? He was truly thinking for his father's sake.

"That's right. I'll have to trouble you all today."

Qing Mei immediately stepped forward and gave a heavy bag to him. "My mistress will give you the money for your drinks."

Yuanshan did not decline and left with the Gu family's followers after saluting.

The mansion suddenly became much quieter. Only now did Gu Hua Jing understand why Yang Jia Yao had bought so much for her back then. From the looks of it now, it was only just enough.

Senior Servant Tian called all the servants into the main hall, which was now full to the brim.

"From today onwards, your masters are the Fourth Miss. She is kind-hearted, but she will not tolerate any disloyal people, so you have to be careful of her. If I find any cheating, then you can go back to where you came from!"

Senior Servant Tian knocked on the door a few times before bowing and retreating to the side.

Gu Hua Jing sat in the seat of honor, her eyes carefully scanning the people below.

The servant who was being stared at lowered his head even lower.

Who said that She Li was like a stray dog? This Gu Fourth Miss was clearly more powerful than any of the noble ladies in the sect. Wherever her gaze passed by, it was so shocking that no one dared to breathe.

Gu Hua Jing slowly spoke. Her voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear her clearly.

"I don't like being cruel to people, but I also don't like being bullied. As long as you guys are sincere and kind, I will treat you guys sincerely. On the other hand, I am not easy to fool either. Do you understand?"

"Understood."

A chorus of voices echoed in the front hall, and Gu Hua Jing waved them off.

Having just arrived here, there were many things that needed to be tidied up. After meeting the people of the world for so long, they would eventually find out about her temper.

Gu Hua Jing had settled down here. This house was called the Flowing Garden. Gu Yuan Pei's meaning was that if Gu Hua Jing didn't like it, she could change it to something else.

But Gu Hua Jing actually liked it very much, and felt that it was very artistic.

Yang Jiayao's insight was indeed good. The people that she had chosen were all capable of helping Gu Hua Jing. However, in just a few days, the Flowing Cloud Garden was already well-organized.

"Miss, the car is ready. Are you going out now?"

Zhujiu Ju Ting stood to the side, her chirping voice making people feel relaxed and happy.

Gu Hua Jing nodded and asked Lu Zhi to place the hairpin on her hairpin before she slowly stood up.

Astonishment flashed in the eyes of Bamboo Liquor, but it continued to silently stand at the side, while Green Branch continued to grin and praise.

"Miss is too beautiful! You're the most beautiful person I've ever met!"

Bamboo wine and green twigs were the new girls that Gu Hua Jing had bought. Although the bamboo wine was beautiful, it was strangely steady and steady. Green twigs, on the other hand, were lively and lively. Wherever she was, she would always feel spring in the air.

Qingmei had an indifferent personality, but she was extremely intelligent. Gu Hua Jing felt that the bamboo wine and the green branch complemented her.

Today, Gu Hua Jing planned to make a trip back to the Gu family and tell her father that she was safe and sound. At the same time, she wanted to personally hand over the prescription for the medicinal food to Gu Yuan Pei.

When the carriage arrived at the Gu household, Yang Jiayao was already waiting outside.

"Fourth sister, you finally came."

Yang Jiayao greeted her with a smile. She waited for Gu Huanjing to get out of the car before immediately taking her arm.

"Second sister?"

Gu Hua Jing sensed Yang Jiayao's eagerness and couldn't help but feel curious. She had already sent the message, so it wasn't too late.

Yang Jiayao couldn't hold the smile on her face anymore. She pulled Gu Hua Jing inside while lowering her voice.

"If Fourth Sister doesn't arrive soon, I'll send someone to urge her. After all these days, I don't know what Eldest Sister is thinking, but after angering father, Eldest Brother actually asked to divorce my wife. The Gu family has truly …"

Yang Jiayao could not describe it, she could only shake her head helplessly, "Fortunately, little sister is here. Little sister should hurry up and persuade her. Eldest sister-in-law has been crying and complaining in the back room for a few days now …"

Gu Hua Jing's expression was somewhat stiff. That shouldn't be the case, right? If he left the Gu family, wouldn't Qin Wenzhou be celebrating? At least on the day she left, the smile on Qin Wangwei's face was genuine.

It had only been a short while, how could he have changed so much?

"Why did sister-in-law anger father?"

"I know what my sister-in-law is thinking, and I don't want to argue with her. As soon as you left, my sister-in-law took care of everything that happened in my hands as soon as I took care of her."

If that's the case, it might not be a big deal. However, when everyone was talking about the Fanghua Garden, elder sister-in-law pushed it out, saying that since Sister Ping is already big, she should have her own courtyard. She just happens to be looking at the Fanghua Garden.

With that, Yang Jiayao sighed and said, "Eldest sister-in-law has always wanted the Flowery Garden, but because of daddy's absence, she has been patient all this time. Fourth sister might be …"

Yang Jiayao couldn't say it out loud, but Gu Hua Jing already understood.

Qin Wanghui was afraid of another turn of events, so she couldn't care about anything else. However, whether she was stupid or not, she would have to wait for a few days before she could speak. Now that she had just left, her father's heart was filled with reluctance.

Gu Hua Jing had no way to evaluate Qin Wuren. In the past, Qin Wuren had made a good living in the Gu family. It had all been thanks to everyone's indulgence.

"So Daddy got angry?"

"That's alright. Father knows Eldest Sister-in-Law's personality. Just because of this, he shouldn't be so angry."

So you still have more? Gu Hua Jing could only raise her head to look at the sky. Qin Hui's suicidal ability didn't lose out in the slightest to Gu Hua Jing. What else had she done?

Speaking of that, Yang Jiayao was helpless, "Sister-in-law..." "She has an inexplicable obsession with the Gu family's property, but she actually took a fancy to the Flowing Garden, and suggested to her father that they should take back the agreement with the Flowing Garden. She also said that of course she wouldn't let you live in the Flowing Garden, but it's just that the Flowing Garden is the Gu family's property, and if you were to give a daughter, her ancestors …"

Yang Jiayao could not continue. Thinking of Gu Yuan Pei's reaction, her face turned pale.

"In short, don't worry about it, sister. You saw how much Daddy doted on you. Daddy was so angry about this. I was worried that he would hurt my body. Sister, hurry up and take a look."

While the two of them were speaking, they had already arrived at Gu Yuan Pei's courtyard.

The tip of Gu Hua Jing's nose twitched. She could actually smell the medicinal fragrance of medicine. Was her father sick?

Without giving it much thought, she quickly walked in and saw that Gu Yuan Pei had put down the medicine bowl in her hands.

"Father!"

"Jingjing? Come, come, come. Let Father have a look. "

A smile appeared on Gu Yuan Pei's face, but Gu Hua Jing could see that he was a little weak. The green in Gu Yuan Pei's eyes was very obvious, and he was clearly exhausted.

"Father, why are you so pale? Has the doctor seen it? What did the doctor say? "

Gu Yuan Pei did not answer her, but stood up and looked at Gu Hua Jing before sitting down, "Are you used to living alone? Do you have enough manpower? There are a few old wet nurses in the house, why don't you ask them to give you some more pointers? "

"Father!"

Gu Yuan Pei laughed heartily and waved his hand, "Dad is fine. Even though I'm old, there's always something wrong with me."

The servants in the room quietly withdrew, leaving only the father and daughter behind.

The wind blew through the bamboo forest outside the window, making a rustling sound, leisurely and comfortable.

"I heard about Eldest Sister-in-Law."

"That's nothing, Hua Lei's wife has been getting more and more confused lately, but Hua Lei is a clear-headed person. He has his own thoughts."

"Then is big brother really going to divorce me?"

Gu Yuan Pei did not want to talk about this. His daughter had returned with much difficulty, and he did not want these troublesome matters to occupy their time.

However, Gu Hua Jing wanted to talk. Although she also didn't like Qin Hui's intelligence, in this era, a woman abandoned by her husband's family would end up in a miserable state.

"Eldest sister-in-law is also thinking for the Gu family. In fact, to me, the flower garden is really too big …"

Gu Hua Jing had yet to finish her sentence when Gu Yuan Pei's beard began to blow, "The Flowing Garden belongs to my Gu family. I can give it to whoever I want!" The descendants of my Gu family have not fallen to the point where we can point to the ancestors! "

"Dad, don't be angry. I just think …"

"There's no 'just'. I know that you want to settle the matter peacefully, but you are my daughter, and she is only my wife. Tell me, who should I side with?"

Gu Hua Jing was dumbstruck. Gu Yuan Pei's theory was too simple and crude? He was obviously being unreasonable.

Gu Yuan Pei was unreasonable. If he could not even protect his own daughter, the ancestors of the Gu family would despise him. After a hundred years, how would he still have the face to see his wife?

Seeing that her father didn't make sense, Gu Hua Jing gave up.

Since Second Sister-in-Law wanted him to persuade her, how could she? He always felt that it would feel cheap to open his mouth, but at the same time, it felt like he was behaving obediently.

Thus, Gu Hua Jing changed the method and kept quiet about the matter. She eagerly took out the prescription for the medicinal food.

"I've tried this before. If it's hard for me to sleep at night, eating this every night is pretty good. It can help replenish my energy and calm my mind."

Gu Yuan Pei looked at his daughter's flushed face and thought back to how weak she was when she returned from the Bai Clan. He sighed in his heart.

"Jingjing, Bai Lingtian will be back soon, you …" "Are you alright?"

Gu Hua Jing shook her head. What's the matter with her?

"Dad, don't worry. Your daughter has already decided to let things go. Your daughter will not be so despicable as to take a man's life as her own. Besides, your daughter is no longer related to the Bai Clan. What does Bai Lingtian's return have to do with me?"

Only then did Gu Yuan Pei relax, his heart racing back and forth a hundred times.

This time, there were already many officials who came to investigate the dispute with the Bai Clan. The Bai Clan was not that simple within the imperial court, they thought that with Jingjing marrying over, it would be the right decision for the Gu Clan.

However, Jingjing didn't need to know about this. He had never treated Jingjing's marriage as a method of combining power. He wouldn't have done this in the past, nor in the future!
