Reborn in a Noble Family - Chapter 145
Chapter 145 Gu Jinzhen’s Fear
In Ms. Feng’s eyes, he was the heavens, everything.
The feeling of being relied on made him swell. In front of Madam Feng, he felt that he was a man, a man who stood tall and capable of everything!
Feng shi’s gentleness and indifference made him extremely satisfied. He thought about when he would let Shen Yuan make the decision and accept Feng shi.
Fortunately, Shen Yuan was dead.
Thus, Madam Feng entered the Duke’s Mansion of Ding Country as her successor. She did not need to look at Shen Yuan’s expression and was the true master of the Duke’s Mansion.
These past few years, under the careful management of the Feng clan, the Marquis’ Manor had reached a peak in both the common affairs within the Manor and the industries outside the Manor.
In particular, Feng shi also gave birth to a pair of twin sons.
There was no lack of sons in aristocratic families, but like him, he had two at a time. This was a rare thing and a good sign. This was also the reason why he had spoiled Ms. Feng and his two sons all these years.
Thinking of this, Marquis Ding Guo’s expression slowed down, but his gaze towards Gu Jinzhen was still sinister.
“What, what do you think of me?”
Seeing the discord between father and son, Feng shi hurriedly advised, “Lord Marquis, Brother Zhen is also careless. You also know that Brother Zhen is by Marquis Zhen Yuan’s side and is a member of the Shen Clan Army. The study is very important to the war at the border. It is Jiaojiao who is ignorant and angered. I know that you are wrong and should be punished.”
‘”Yes, uncle,” Feng Jiaojiao said sensible. “Today, she was too reckless. She only thought about how hard her cousin had worked. She personally cooked the ginseng soup and sent it to her cousin. She ignored the importance of not trespassing in the study. Jiaojiao only thought about her cousin’s body, so she … acted willfully.”
‘”You’re a good man,” said the Duke of Ding with a pleasant expression. “Your cousin doesn’t know how to adapt. You’ve been wronged. You still haven’t come to apologize!”
This last sentence was addressed to Gu Jinzhen.
Tang Yuan, who was standing beside him, only felt that it was funny.
Is Marquis Ding Yuan crazy?
Feng Jiaojiao was the niece of the Feng Clan. The Duke of Ding did not care about her son, but he actually treated the Feng Clan’s daughter as his own daughter!
Love me and love my crow is not like this.
What kind of cousin was Feng Jiaojiao?
The daughter of a rank eight official. If not for the fact that the Feng Clan’s Sparrow had become the successor of the Duke of Ding, Feng Yan would still be released outside. How could she return to the capital and even be promoted to rank three in a row?
It wasn’t because of Marquis Ding. After all, Marquis Ding’s wife’s family was too low-grade, and she had also lost people from Marquis Ding.
After thinking so much, Tang Yuan looked down on the family even more.
“Big brother,” Gu Jinxuan was also advising Gu Jinzhen, “it’s her fault that my cousin trespassed into the study today, but you can’t let this servant send my cousin back just like that. How can my cousin show her might in Duke mansion in the future if you do this?”
Gu Jinxuan said euphemistically, but between the lines, he was speaking for Feng Jiaojiao.
Being betted like that by a servant meant that he had lost all face and face.
Feng Jiaojiao wiped away her wronged tears, her mouth still defending Gu Jinzhen. “Second cousin, cousin didn’t mean it, it’s Jiaojiao’s fault.”
Gu Jinzhen laughed.
Are these people finished?
“Prestige? Prestige in the Duke of Ding Manor? Why?”
Yeah, why?
Feng Jiaojiao was a member of the Feng Clan, so she wanted to establish her prestige back to her own clan and establish her prestige in the Marquis Ding Guo Prefecture?
What a big face.
‘”Unfilial son, you, you” Marquis Ding Guo pointed at Gu Jinzhen’s nose with a trembling expression.
“Lord Marquis, please calm down!” Madam Feng hurriedly stroked the Duke of Ding’s chest and followed his anger, “Brother Zhen didn’t mean it. Don’t be angry.”
Gu Jintai helped the Duke of Ding sit down and handed over the tea.
Looking at his considerate little son, the curve of Marquis Ding Guo’s chest gradually diminished. He took the teacup and took a sip.
“Stay in the mansion for a few days. Your second brother has just received an assignment and is going to go far away. Your grandfather has already arrived at the border, right? The ancestral house in Jincheng City is empty, right? Let people clean it up. The second brother has gone over and lives in the ancestral house.”
“I’m afraid Lord Marquis is confused. The ancestral house in Jincheng belongs to my grandfather. What does it have to do with Second Brother?”
“You …”
“Father,” Gu Jinxuan hurriedly advised, “Thank you for your consideration for your son. However, my son doesn’t want to make things difficult for my eldest brother. Besides, my son is following the Third Prince to Shu Prefecture this time. Naturally, he lives with the Third Prince.”
“What are you talking about?”
Gu Jinxuan rolled his eyes and felt suffocated.
“Unfilial son, what are you doing? Quickly let go!”
“Brother Zhen!”
“Big brother!”
“Cousin!”
Everyone in the room only dared to call out to Gu Jinzhen, not daring to make any substantial movements. Who knew what was wrong with this fellow and what he had done?
“What are you talking about?” Gu Jinzhen’s eyes were scarlet.
Sensing the killing intent on his opponent’s body, Gu Jinxuan was truly afraid. In the past, this person had restrained himself, but today, he did not conceal it at all.
“Big brother, you, you let go …”
Not only did Gu Jinzhen not let go, the strength in his hand also increased, and his eyes turned scarlet.
“Big brother, it’s like this,” Gu Jintai said on his behalf when he saw that his twin brother had been restrained. “Didn’t the Shu Dao have been repaired years ago? The Third Prince suddenly became interested and wanted to visit the Shu Province.” You also know that Second Brother and Third Prince have a good relationship, so we have arranged the itinerary to accompany Third Prince to Shu Prefecture. Father was worried that his second brother would not accept the situation in Jincheng, so he wanted to borrow his eldest brother’s Outer Ancestor’s mansion. However, don’t worry, Big Brother. The Third Prince has already arranged the place to stay. There’s no need to trouble Big Brother anymore. ”
Knowing that Gu Jinzhen was a hooligan, Gu Jintai’s explanation was very detailed.
However, the current Gu Jinzhen had no time to care what Gu Jintai had said. All of his mind was on the Third Prince going to Jincheng.
So fast?
Is it now?
Was this the time Qiao Yunxi met the Third Prince in his previous life?
All sorts of worries and fears caused Gu Jinzhen’s entire body to feel as if he was soaked in ice water. He was terribly gloomy.
“Master” Tang Yuan tried to call out.
“Pa.”
Gu Jinzhen released his grip on Gu Jinxuan’s hand.
Gu Jinxuan fell to the ground and still hadn’t recovered from the dangerous pressure.
Gu Jinzhen hurriedly brought Tang Yuan back to his courtyard.
“Order me to leave in fifteen minutes.”
…
Jincheng, Qiao Manor.
Qiao Yunxi held the teacup and listened to the two people chattering.
In the circle, Jin Family and the Zhong Clan, who were the most low-key, suddenly became high-profile. They were all related to Qiao Yunxi, and the others immediately couldn’t sit still.
Just like power, wealth needed to be taken care of by each other, so marriage was the easiest and most effective method at this time.
The situation in the Zhong Clan was still complicated, but Jin Family had already been honest. Fatty Jin’s selection of a concubine had already been stirred up in Jincheng, and Fatty Jin had even hid in Qiao Yunxi’s courtyard.
However, ever since Fatty Jin saw the light of day again, the Jin Clan had not moved. Could it be that Qiao Xi had been settled?
Qiao Jinwen didn’t care about the words of a Jin Clan member, but what did Zhong Chenglin mean by suddenly interfering?
When did Qiao Yunxi hook up with the Zhong family?
What is she doing?
With more and more questions, Qiao Jinwen could no longer calm down. That was why she brought Qiao Ningdai to Qiao Yunxi’s courtyard with her under the banner of the sisters’ gathering.
“Qiao Qiao, what are you busy with these days?” Qiao Ningdai asked with concern.
Qiao Yunxi shook his head. “Apart from the Chamber of Commerce, what else can you do?”
Qiao Ningdai said disapprovingly, “Although the matters of the Chamber of Commerce are important, your body is weak. You can’t mess with your body because of the matters of the Chamber of Commerce. When the time comes, it will be your own. If there is anything else, let Fourth Uncle take care of it for you. After all, Fourth Uncle is familiar with the matters of the Chamber of Commerce.”
Qiao Yunxi laughed.
So, self-righteous people always feel good about themselves.
She had already tore her face apart, but she still pretended that nothing had happened. Wasn’t it tired to stage a scene of affection?
‘”Since Qiao Ningdai wants to act, it’s good that she cooperates. However, fourth uncle has not seen the end of the day. He must have his own matters to attend to. I won’t bother him anymore. There are also vice-presidents of the Chamber of Commerce on both sides.”
Qiao Ningdai nodded her head without worrying about Qiao Xi’s attitude.
She rolled her eyes and asked curiously, “Qiao Qiao, you are familiar with Young Master Jin. Do you know Mrs. Jin?”
She hesitated, but she understood what she meant.
Qiao Xi laughed and said, “Fifth sister, you think too highly of Qiao Qiao. Just because I have a good relationship with Fatty Jin, doesn’t mean that I know what Mrs. Jin thinks? I’m a junior. Even if I drink tea with Mrs. Jin, she won’t tell me about this, right?”
“Young Master Jin didn’t mention anything?” Qiao Ningdai asked in disbelief.
Qiao Yunxi shook his head. “That’s his personal matter. Why should I ask this? Fifth sister wants to …”
‘”No, no,” Qiao Ningdai hurriedly denied. “I’m just curious. Qiao Qiao, you know the Jin Family’s position in Jincheng. Although they have kept a low profile these years, their development in the dynasty, not to mention the richest man, is not far from the richest man. Not only are the merchants in Jincheng concerned about the Jin Family’s movements, but even the merchants in the capital are paying close attention to them. The Jin Clan was quite special in terms of offspring. Otherwise, Madam Jin would not have chosen a wife for Young Master Jin so early. Fifth Sister was also curious. After all, this is also related to the checks and balances of our major merchant families. ”
That’s true.
Sometimes, marrying a woman or a wife can really change the fate of a family and affect the balance of a circle.
“I understand Fifth Sister’s words, but I really don’t know,” said Qiao Yunxi sincerely. “No matter how good my relationship with Fatty Jin is, there are differences between men and women. I really can’t ask about this topic. If Fifth Sister is anxious to know the truth, she can ask Fatty Jin. The same was true for the Zhong Clan. Fatty Jin and Young Master Zhong have been in frequent contact recently because of the Chamber of Commerce. Third Sister and Fifth Sister also knew that the influence of these two families in the dynasty was due to some misgivings, which was why they kept such a low profile in Jincheng. Although I don’t know why they suddenly became so high profile, I don’t think it would be a bad thing. We’re all in the same circle, but we don’t have any business dealings, and there are certain interests involved, so we’ve moved a bit more. “
