Chapter 542: Paper can't keep the fire

Brother Yu received a fat beating and cried earth-shattering.
The little guy hid in the bedroom, closed the door, and sulked in it alone.
Gu Jiu stared at Liu Zhao, very disgusted, "What son did you have?"
"I can't come out of life alone." Liu Zhao said shamelessly.
Gu Jiu hummed twice, expressing his dissatisfaction, "I just asked you to teach him a few words, why are you so black? Is he your own son?"
Liu Zhao said solemnly: "If he hadn't been my own son, he would have been thrown out a long time ago."
Gu Jiu's mouth twitched, "You are not allowed to fight so hard next time."
Liu Zhao courageously complained, "You are always fond of duplicity. You say you must beat your child hard, and you can't be used to your child. When you really beat a child, you feel more distressed than anyone else. You are not good at educating a child like this. Yu brother People are big and small, and they have a clear mind, so they have to be true to him, otherwise he won't learn the lesson."
Gu Jiu was speechless, "Hit it, hit it. If he is afraid of you, you will be proud."
"Then another one."
Gu Jiu gave him a decisive look.
Then she turned out the gift list, "Look at it first, and if it's appropriate, follow this gift list to the third child."
Liu Zhao glanced at the gift list, "Why give him such an expensive gift."
"He was married, or his father personally gave him the marriage. The gift should be more expensive. After all, you are the eldest brother, you have to be friendly brothers."
Liu Zhao wanted to say something about friendship.
Talking too much, he changed his words and said: "You are in charge of this matter."
Gu Jiu said, "Then give the gift according to this gift list, so we can't look stingy."
That's all money, which is really depressing.
Liu Zhao turned his head, not seeing is clear.
...
The Hou Mansion is also discussing gifts.
"The three princes are married, do you want to give gifts in the Hou Mansion, how many gifts, please let the old lady make an idea."
The eldest wife Xiao Wei posed the question.
The old lady Wei thought for a while, and said: "The three princes get married, even if we don't go, the gift must be given. Just as the annual gift sent to other homes in previous years, it will be slightly reduced by 10%."
Mrs. Wei frowned slightly, "Will the gift be too thin?"
The old lady Wei said: "He is the prince, and we should give gifts. But because he is the prince, we can't give generous gifts. The gifts you give out are just as good as your wishes."
The eldest wife Xiaowei responded, "My daughter-in-law listens to the old lady, and buys gifts according to the old lady's instructions."
The old lady Wei hesitated again, "I don't want to ask Xiao Jiu again about this matter."
"I'm afraid Xiao Jiu is not sure about it. She has never experienced these things after all."
"I heard that the princes are not in harmony."
The eldest wife Xiao Wei said: "Several princes living under one roof will inevitably have bumps and bumps. It is suspicious if you really want to be harmonious. No matter how you get along in private, you still have to maintain your brotherhood. Love. Otherwise, Your Majesty can't spare them."
The old lady Wei nodded and suddenly made a decision, "This year's gift to Xiao Jiu will add another 20%."
"This is not appropriate." The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, was a little worried. She didn't feel sorry for the money, but was afraid of being involved in the prince's battle.
"The old lady also said just now that because she is the prince, she should stay away and can't give big gifts. It is a trivial matter to add 20% to Xiao Jiu's New Year gift, I am afraid it will arouse others' suspicion."
The old lady Wei has a different idea. "I heard that the project outside the Nancheng Gate this year will get dividends? The annual gift will add 20%. If anyone asks, thank Xiao Jiu for pulling everyone to make money."
The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, nodded, "Well, let's do it, I will add 20% to the annual gift."
"Do you know how many dividends this year?"
The eldest wife Xiao Wei shook her head, "We have to wait until the end of the twelfth lunar month to get the dividend."
"The old man has heard that Xinmin County is lively all day long. It is amazing that Xiao Jiu has created such a large industry by himself."
"Who said no. When the money was first invested, who would have thought that she could do such a big scene."
Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law sighed.
The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, pointed to the neighboring Gu Mansion, "There is a reminder. The three princes are married, and they, as relatives, should give gifts to show their hearts."
The old lady Wei nodded, "Send someone to remind you. Zhang is a proper person, but the Xie is a little unclear. The old man is worried that she can't tell the weight."
The eldest wife Xiao Wei laughed: "I don't have to worry about this. The old lady is now the housekeeper of her daughter-in-law Hu. It's just that Hu is young and has never experienced these things, so I am afraid she will not understand."
The old lady Wei was relieved.
Gu Mansion next door, after reminding, remembered the wedding of the three princes. As relatives, they had to arrive but the gifts had to come.
"It's just that our family hasn't made filial piety yet, is it appropriate to give gifts?"
Gu Teng hesitated.
Master Gu's heart was very hot, "Our family has been away from filial piety for more than a month, and it doesn't get in the way."
After filial piety, he will seek revival and resolutely leave Taichang Temple.
Shou filial piety for twenty-seven months, counting the time, it is almost here.
Gu Yan said: "The gift is just as the Houfu said, thinner, just a little bit of your heart?"
Mr. Gu said, "The situation in our house is different from that in the Hou Mansion. The Hou Mansion is afraid of committing taboos. What are we afraid of. A thicker gift will not interfere."
Gu Yu frowned, "Will it cause trouble for Xiaojiu's sister."
"What are you afraid of!" Master Gu said nonchalantly: "What does it matter if the prince is married, giving a slightly thicker gift. You don't have to be so careful, just do as the father orders."
Gu Teng's mouth responded, but he decided to write to Gu Jiu.
He didn't dare to be expert at the wedding gifts of the three princes.
Master Gu was still immersed in the excitement of coming out of filial piety, and he didn't pay attention to Gu Xing's reaction.
He added: "Gu Yue still has to find a way to tell her about marriage. A single woman can't always live like that."
"The third sister refuses to return home to marry, and the son can't help it."
"Next day you go there in person and see her. You brother and sister have a good relationship, and she will listen to you."
Master Gu thought things very simple.
Gu Wei frowned, he was not willing to take the matter.
According to his wishes, Gu Yue didn't want to marry, so don't marry. If she is not used to living in the house, buy her a house in the city and let her live by herself.
It's just that Master Gu wanted to send Gu Yue out. In the words of Master Gu, there is no old girl in the Gu family who can't get married.
Gu Teng returned to the room and said to Hu's family: "Someday you are free, let me go outside the city to see the third sister."
Hu is not very happy, who is willing to go out of town in such cold weather.
"Does the lord reiterate the old thing and want to say kiss to the third grandma?"
Gu Yu nodded, "Exactly. The third sister refuses to come back, it's almost the New Year. I'm the brother, so I have to go and see."
Hu said: "Why don't you invite your wife to come forward? His wife and Sangu's grandmother have a deep relationship, and the wife may be able to convince Sangu's grandma to come forward."
Gu Yan shook his head, "You can't let your wife come forward. The wife's temper is getting more and more weird. After she meets the third sister, she doesn't know what will happen. When the third sister is brought back, it will not be too late to let them meet."
Seeing that Gu Teng had made up his mind, Hu could only compromise, "Well then, I'll just go with you. I'll let the servant prepare a gift and bring it to Grandma Sangu."
"Thanks for your hard work."
"Husband, don't be polite with me. I'm the young lady in charge. These are all things I should do."
"I always wronged you."
The couple chose a sunny day and drove out of the city to the farm.
When he arrived at the farm, Zhuang Tou felt a little nervous when he saw the husband and wife.
Gu Teng asked directly, "Where is the grandmother Sangu? But in the backyard?"
Zhuang Tou was a little guilty, and said cautiously: "The young master did not come by coincidence. Grandma Sangu will not be here."
The couple who were about to enter the door were surprised when Gu Yue was not there.
Gu Teng turned his head and stared at the head of the village, "Where is the grandmother Sangu going? The master placed her in the farm and ordered you to look at her so well. She is not here, how did you work as a errand?"
Zhuangtou was too nervous to speak.
Hu pulled Gu Teng, then came forward and asked in a soft voice: "Don't panic first, tell us where grandma Sangu went? If you behave well, you will be atonement for your merits."
Zhuang Tou was a little scared.
Gu Yu was annoyed, "Dog stuff, dare to hide it for Grandma Sangu, who gives you the courage. Come here and drive everyone out, the young master wants to be tried one by one."
"Young Master calm down." The head of the village finally found his voice, "Grandma Sangu went to Zhuangzi over there."
"Which Zhuangzi? Speak clearly." Gu Teng waved his horse whip and scolded the Zhuangzi.
Zhuangtou pointed at the other side of the mountain, "It's the little Zhuangzi under the name of Grandma Sangu."
Gu Wei frowned and looked at the low hillside, "Where does Grandma Sangu go?"
Zhuang Tou shook his head, "I go there occasionally."
"What to do?"
"It's an audit. It's better for the sixth young master and young grandmother to go to the door to drink tea. The younger one will send someone to invite the third grandmother back."
Gu Yan shook his head and said, "No, I'll go over and take a look myself."
He said to Hu again: "It's cold, so you can stay here and cook for a while. I'll come as soon as I go."
"Don't quarrel with Sangu's grandmother. She guessed that she was suffocated in the Zhuangzi before going out to walk."
"I know, I have a sense."
Gu Teng took a few people and went to Xiaozhuangzi on the other side of the mountain.
