Chapter 430 You got it wrong
Gu Wenxuan discovered that just as he was leaving a cup of tea, his wife was disobedient again. Instead of staying in the west wing, she went to the kitchen.
Whatever you want to eat, just let the cook cook it.
Even if you have some ingredients that you want to try, but the cook doesn't know how to cook or stew, just ask the other person to come to the small hall and listen to you explain whether you can make it or not.
At this moment, the kitchen where dinner was being prepared was full of oily smoke and smelled of everything, so I was not afraid of smelling something strange when I went in and suddenly felt overjoyed.
Zhou Banxia, who accompanied Gu Wenxuan back to the west wing, knew what he wanted to say as soon as he saw the disapproving look on his face, and immediately beat him to it before he could say anything.
"What do you think, parents? You told them that the gifts given to the old man and the old lady by your uncle and aunt are considered as return gifts. Did they tell them how to deal with them?"
Can you say that he temporarily forgot to mention this matter because his parents interrupted him? Gu Wenxuan's mind was racing, "The things are just on the table. I think about it and don't ask."
Yes, that’s what it is! "My father and mother were sitting at the table at that time, probably discussing this matter, so I got down to business."
As things became smoother and smoother, Gu Wenxuan quickly changed the topic of "business" to what his parents said, could his father-in-law be an ordinary father-in-law?
No matter how much you add, it won’t hurt!
Then, he cleverly came out of the main room without looking for his wife. He directly ordered Zhiming to find Gu Dahua and quickly deliver the things to his father-in-law!
In this case, it is not his idea to add more or less. How can parents not be happy to see their daughter-in-law listen to their son? How about it? Your man is smart, right?
Zhou Banxia raised her thumbs, thinking that she should not inquire. She was also curious whether her father-in-law and mother-in-law were serious about ignoring the old man.
"Watch the road." Gu Wenxuan quickly grabbed her hand, "Tell me, if I am next to you, you will hit the door. How can you rest assured if I am not at home?"
Door?
Zhou Banxia looked at the door of the room, which was at least five steps away, still open, with only a curtain hanging on the threshold, and found that he was speechless.
"If I didn't remind you, you would have run into me." How could Gu Youli not see the look on his wife's face, "Have you read the letter?"
Even if you change the subject now, you can change it quickly enough! Zhou Banxia shook his head in amusement: "Not yet, I wanted to wait for you to watch together. When I saw you didn't come back, I turned to the kitchen."
Gu Wenxuan put his hands on Zhou Banxia's shoulders and motioned her to move forward. He subconsciously took over the words and said, "It's my fault."
"What's the mistake?" Zhou Banxia couldn't help but chuckle, "Okay, no more nonsense. Have you noticed that if you calculate the time, your aunt should be in the capital today, right?"
Gu Wenxuan was suddenly startled. He had hurriedly read the letter dictated by Gu Dali, but did Gu Dali say that his wife went to the capital together?
"The teacher's wife you mentioned should be in the capital?"
"That's right."
"Wait, here's the letter, let me take a closer look."
"Well, isn't that?" Zhou Banxia pointed at the crescent table against the wall in front of the couch, "I even put the list on it."
Gu Wenxuan took two quick steps, reached out to find the letter, unfolded the folded letter paper, turned to the sixth sheet, glanced at the page content, and immediately turned to the seventh sheet of paper.
look!
It's on this piece of paper. Gu Dali mentioned that his husband asked him to choose two people from the escort team to escort them to each house in the city. He led the team and the housekeeper to the capital.
Where did the master's wife come from? She should be in the capital today?
"You are wrong. Do you understand that they escorted Master's wife to the capital? This in-law's wife is not that in-law's wife, it is Mrs. Kong who is in Zhoujiacun.
I knew it was impossible. Even if my wife didn't come to our house first, even if she listened to our coaxing, how could she possibly return to Beijing at this time?
As a housewife, she couldn't rush back and forth quickly, so she had to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with her husband to pay homage to the ancestors, and then she would leave for Beijing. ”
Zhou Ban and Xia Jing waited for him to finish, frowning in confusion, "Are you talking about my sister-in-law, her own mother, Mrs. Kong? Her daughter is pregnant, why don't you go to Zhoujia Village?
How did you figure out that the wife Dali pointed to was not your aunt, but Mrs. Kong? If we really want to talk about the wife of the in-laws, the second brother's future mother-in-law can be regarded as the wife of the in-laws.
Could it be that when I saw that I was pregnant these days, Uncle Chang Qing or Aunt Lan heard some news from my uncle and aunt? They were afraid of alarming me, so what did they say to you first——"
"Stop, stop, stop." Gu Wenxuan was frightened, "No matter how you think about the problem, you always think about the worst. Be optimistic and maintain an optimistic attitude, wife.
Think about it, it’s such a simple thing. Is your second brother yet to marry his wife when he reaches the age of marriage? But there was a reason for everything. Why did his mother-in-law go to Zhoujiacun?
You don't want your second brother to fulfill his filial piety, or are you afraid that your husband will regret the marriage and urge your wife to welcome her daughter into the house as soon as possible? No kidding. If you really can't wait, why don't you invite a matchmaker to come to your door to urge the marriage?
Going back to the story, the third child has not yet been engaged. Think about it, the husband only has three sons, who else is the wife of the in-laws, but there is only one Mrs. Kong left. ”
Zhou Banxia nodded to him in a dignified manner, "That makes sense, then how do you determine that this in-law's wife is not that in-law's wife?"
"Attention, look here." Gu Wenxuan pointed at a list of words, "Dali said, the gentleman I met first in the study that day, and later the wife who was waiting for guests in the inner courtyard rushed over."
"Hosting guests in the inner courtyard does not prove that my aunt is entertaining Mrs. Kong."
"Time, it was almost afternoon when Dali arrived. I took a shower and it was almost time for dinner when I arrived at Mr. Dali's place. In addition, Dali saw Mr. Dali in the study and he replied in detail.
Let’s just think that it’s almost time for dinner. The female relatives from the village will come to your door and they won’t be ignorant enough to wait for dinner before leaving. The aunt who allows you to entertain guests in the inner courtyard came to the study later. This female guest, I If there was no misconception, he should have stayed in Zhou Mansion that night.
Calculating the approximate time it takes to get back and forth from Zhoujiacun to the capital, your aunt will not be able to come back in time for August 15th as long as she leaves for the capital.
After contacting each other, the highest probability of the accompanying wife is Mrs. Kong, followed by your aunt's sister-in-law.
It's just that it's impossible for Dali to call her his wife. It's impossible for her to be a cousin. Your aunt, sister-in-law and sister don't live in the capital.
How to use "escort your wife back to Beijing"? You also go to the capital instead of returning to the capital. It’s not like Dali doesn’t even know this most basic concept. ”
Zhou Banxia didn't know what to say for a while after listening to this. Who reads family letters like this, looking for clues like solving a crime...
"Of course, what I said is my personal inference. The correct answer is-" Gu Wenxuan smiled and picked up the unopened letter written by Zhou Huan and his wife on the table. "You can open it and look for it. It may be clear without inference." Isn’t it fun? I really want to get a beer bottle, haha..."
