The strange eyes of the Liu family were fixed on Gu Xiyan, and they couldn't figure out why Emperor Chengde wanted to reward Gu Xiyan.

Gu Xiyan was at a loss from the beginning, but later became calm.

What can't you figure out? It was clear that Zhou Mu felt ashamed of her, felt that she had been slighted yesterday, and felt sorry, so he asked Emperor Cheng De to give her a reward.

Except for Zhou Mu, she couldn't think of anyone else who could let Emperor Chengde know about her existence.

She accepted the thank you without being humble, and Liu Qing chatted with her a few words before leaving Hou Mansion with the help of the Liu family.

As soon as Liu Qing left, the old lady took Gu Xiyan's hand and asked, "Sister Xi, do you know why His Majesty suddenly rewarded you?"

Not to mention that the old lady is curious, Wan Qinghou is also very curious.

Gu Xiyan has no sense of presence in the Hou's Mansion, and she is silent on weekdays, but today she has given the Hou's mansion a face, and everyone wants to know what happened.

"Xiyan is also very confused." Gu Xiyan replied with lowered eyes.

The old lady didn't ask any more questions. No matter what the reason was, this time it was Liu Qing who personally sent the reward. During this period, Liu Qing was still scrutinizing Gu Xiyan carefully. It is very likely that some noble person has taken a fancy to this child.

If His Majesty is the matchmaker, it would be the honor of the Hou Mansion.

Not only the old lady understands the mystery of this, but other spirits also understand that the imperial fruit rewarded today is of great significance.

With the support of Cigu, the old lady was about to go back to the Zaohui Hall, when she remembered the incident before, she said to Gu Xiyan: "Grandmother also wants to see the charm of the jade screen with both blessings and blessings, girl, you send it here so Grandma looked past."

Gu Xiyan instantly understood what the old lady meant, and replied crisply: "Yes, grandma."

With the old lady's instructions, Gu Xiyan took Chunhua and Qiushi to Fenghetang to get her dowry.

When Mrs. Li learned of Gu Xiyan's intentions, she had a very ugly face: "Miss, it's a good intention for me to help you keep the dowry. Why did you take the trouble to move back?"

In the past, Gu Xiyan didn't dare to fart in front of her, but today she dares to ask for a dowry?

"Today, I'm here to fetch Yupingfeng at the order of my grandmother, and I'll take back my dowry by the way. Although Xiyuan is a bit small, it's more than enough to put my dowry, so don't bother Mrs. I'm bothered."

Gu Xiyan instructed Chunhua and Qiu Shi again: "You go to move the dowry and count it on the spot, so there must be no mistakes."

Li's expression changed upon hearing this.

How could she be willing to spit out the good things she got? Gu Xiyan's dowry piles are all very valuable, and it is impossible for her to review Xiyan unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Hey, I'm a little dizzy, and I want to lie down for a while." Li said and winked at Yi's mother, signaling her to see off the guests.

Gu Xiyan sat there leisurely, today is the day, she must get all the dowry back today.

She listened to Qiushi and asked her to invite Cigu over.

Cigu is the most powerful person around the old lady, and her words carry weight. Today the palace has a reward, the old lady has some scruples, if she doesn't take advantage of the situation, she will miss the best opportunity.

Qiu Shi quickly invited Ci Gu, and Li Shi, who was pretending to be sick, looked very ugly when she saw Ci Gu.

"Aunt Ci, please sit here for a while."

Cigu also wanted to see how Gu Xiyan behaved, so she sat down as she said, and didn't say much.

But Cigu sitting here represents the old lady's attitude.

Gu Xiyan took out the list: "Chunhua, Qiushi, you two go and move the things out, and I will count them on the spot to avoid mistakes and omissions. It just so happens that Cigu is here, so I can be a witness."

Li's heart was cold and cold, she felt that Gu Xiyan's calm look was an eyesore, but she couldn't drive him away, after all, it was indeed Gu Xiyan's dowry.

She watched the two maidservants carry boxes of dowries out, anxious and helpless at the same time.

An hour later, all the boxes and cages were counted, and one box of silk and satin was missing, and one box of South Sea rice beads was missing.

"The two missing dowries, please ask the eldest wife to make up for them. I will come and take them away in half a month." Gu Xiyan is not petty, but she wants to take back all the things that Li Shi stole. There is no shortage of rice beads.

Li Shi was so angry that her heart ached, and with Cigu present, she couldn't have a fit, so she could only agree with a sigh of relief.

Afterwards, Gu Xiyan specially invited Cigu to Xiyuan, and brought a lot of tribute fruits to Cigu.

Cigu saw that Gu Xiyan was generous, but she didn't refuse, so she accepted it.

Mother Shen placed all the dowry, with tears in her eyes: "The girl has really grown up."

She is Da Gu's dowry maid. When Da Gu left, he specially told her to take good care of the eldest girl. It's just that the eldest girl grows up day by day, becoming more and more silent, and has no sense of existence in this family.

To get back Da Gu's dowry back then is something she never dared to think about before.

"I have been ignorant all these years, causing you and me to suffer, and our life will only get better and better in the future." Gu Xiyan said, asking Qiushi to share a share of the tribute given by the emperor.

Little Gu's and Liu Junyan are indispensable.

Ever since she was fostered under the name of Xiao Gu, Liu Junyan would stab her every time she saw her.

She knew that Liu Junyan didn't like her, and always felt that she had robbed a part of little Gu's maternal love. In fact, Xiao Gu sympathized with her, but he never got close to her.

Today she received a reward from the palace, Liu Junyan just gave her a cold look and then left, probably unhappy.

In the evening, she took the tribute fruit and sent it to Manfang Garden where Mrs. Gu lived, chatted with Mrs. Gu for a few words, and then turned to Dongyuan where Mrs. Liu lived.

Liu Junyan has just reached the age of Ji, and she is arrogant and cold. As the only prostitute of Marquis Wan Qing, coupled with her outstanding appearance and aloof temperament, she has her own proud capital.

When she saw Gu Xiyan coming, her expression didn't change.

"I brought some tribute fruits over here, and I will try them while they are fresh." Gu Xiyan said, and sent a basin of washed tribute fruits to Liu Junyan.

Liu Junyan took a cold look at Gu Xiyan, "My sister is usually silent, but today she got the imperial tribute fruit. Which nobleman has my sister climbed up to?"

She took a huge red cherry and bit it down. The juice was fragrant and fragrant, and it was indeed an excellent royal product that I couldn't usually eat.

Gu Xiyan brushed off the folds of her clothes, and said softly: "Don't say my sister is curious, I am also confused. Maybe it was because I was divorced a few days ago, and His Majesty thinks I am pitiful, so why don't you reward me? "

Liu Junyan looked at Gu Xiyan silently, and said after a while: "My sister has changed."

She used to look down on Gu Xiyan, she was repeatedly bullied by Liu Chaoyan and did not resist, who can be blamed?

Sometimes she feels that poor people must have something to hate, and Gu Xiyan will become a marginal figure in the Marquis Mansion, which is the result of Gu Xiyan's inaction.

What she dislikes Gu Xiyan the most is that she has an extra sister for no reason, and her mother always tells her to let Gu Xiyan be more pitiful.

No matter how pitiful Gu Xiyan is, what does it have to do with her?

"Is there?" Gu Xiyan also took a cherry and put it in her mouth.

"I still say the same thing, you don't show your face in front of me, I don't like you. If it weren't for you, my mother would only spoil me. You are used to playing tricks, and my mother will eat your tricks. Let's go, I don't want to see It's up to you." Liu Junyan saw Gu Xiyan impatiently and hurried away.
