The God of War is killing like crazy

Chapter 149 I recognize my husband as my elder brother 9

Si Ying and Gu Chengyuan arrived in the capital smoothly.

The main gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion was majestic and grand. Maids, old women and servants were already waiting in front of the gate. When they saw Si Ying and Gu Chengyuan's carriage approaching, someone hurried to the mansion to report, and the rest of the people hurried forward to greet them.

Si Ying followed Gu Chengyuan down from the carriage, and the servants immediately surrounded them. The maids and old women took the initiative to help Si Ying get things, and the servants also went forward to lead the carriage.

Si Ying glanced at the four big characters "Duke Zhenguo Mansion" on the main gate. The original owner really thought that this would be his home.

Gu Chengyuan looked at the gate of her own home and recalled the last life when she brought A Yao back. When she got off the carriage, she stood in front of the gate and looked at the magnificent gate of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. She happily pulled his sleeve and asked happily, "Brother A Yuan, will this really be A Yao's home in the future!"

At that time, her eyes were sparkling as she looked at him with anticipation, and when he nodded in the affirmative, her eyes were filled with smiles and she couldn't stop being happy. Unfortunately, everything changed later on. It was he who caused the simple and innocent A Yao to become what she was later.

He didn't love her, and couldn't respond to her love. But now, as a brother, he could love and protect her like his own sister.

Thinking of this, Gu Chengyuan smiled and looked at Si Ying beside him, and said soothingly, "Ayao, we are home, let's go in."

Si Ying nodded, and walked in with him.

Gu Chengyuan suddenly remembered that in her previous life, when A Yao first arrived at the Duke's Mansion, on the way to the main hall to meet her parents, she nervously stepped on the hem of her skirt and almost tripped herself.

Thinking of this, Gu Chengyuan secretly regretted that he should have rested earlier. Although A Yao seemed very happy at that time, she was actually more or less nervous and scared in her heart. After all, she was such a timid little girl like a rabbit. She had lived in the village with her uncle since she was a child and had hardly traveled far. It was he who brought her to a strange place, but did not comfort her fear and timidity of this unfamiliar environment, nor did he protect her here in the capital, in this Duke's Mansion.

At that time, I only wanted to go home and report to my father. Bringing the person back by myself meant that I had completed my father's task.

Thinking about himself at that time, Gu Chengyuan felt a little angry, but fortunately in this life he would take good care of A Yao and care for and protect her.

Thinking of this, he looked at Si Ying who was walking slowly beside him.

Although the current A Yao is a little different from her previous life and looks very calm, he is still worried that she is only calm on the surface and is afraid that she is still nervous inside. So he gently took Si Ying's wrist through her sleeve, lowered his head to face Si Ying's puzzled eyes, and explained with a smile, "A Yao, this is not only my home, it will be your home in the future. Father and mother are both very good people. They are looking forward to your return."

Si Ying didn't know what Gu Chengyuan was thinking, but she understood his good intentions, so she gently broke free from Gu Chengyuan's grasp, looked at him calmly and said, "Brother, don't worry. This is my home, so there's nothing to be nervous or afraid of."

Gu Chengyuan nodded, as long as she wasn't nervous or afraid, it would be fine. However, after being reborn this time, he found that A Yao had indeed changed a lot. She was completely different from the A Yao in his memory who pretended to be bold on the surface but was timid and fearful on the inside.

A Yao has become much more mature now, and her calm temperament cannot be faked. He even secretly suspected that A Yao was also reborn, but he quickly denied this idea. If A Yao was really reborn, she would hate him to death. How could she get along with him so calmly?

In the main hall, the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife were sitting in the main seats, waiting for their arrival. In order to welcome Si Ying today, the Duke of Zhenguo even took a day off and did not attend the morning court. He also arranged for people to open the main gate of the Duke's Mansion early in the morning to welcome his daughter home.

The wife of the Duke was also dressed in a noble and elegant manner, which not only showed her importance to Si Ying, but also seemed serious and able to calm the girl. After all, she didn't know what kind of personality this daughter who had just returned had. Although Liu Muyao's biological mother was of such a noble status, this daughter grew up in the countryside after all. If she was naughty and vulgar, she could establish her own prestige so that it would be easier for her to discipline the girl in the future.

After all, the Duke of Zhenguo has now announced to the public that Liu Muyao is their youngest daughter, and she will be her face whenever she goes out. She does not ask this girl to be as dignified and generous as Ting'er, whom she has carefully brought up, but she cannot be impolite and lose the face of their Duke's Mansion.

Soon, the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife saw a man and a woman coming in from outside. The man walked briskly, and when he saw the couple, he gradually quickened his pace. The girl walked in calmly, with an elegant pace, like a lady from a noble family.

Gu Chengyuan hadn't seen his parents since they were murdered in his previous life. Now that he could see them again, he was naturally happy and walked quickly forward to greet them.

"Father, Mother, my child is back." Gu Chengyuan's words were filled with joy.

The wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, who was sitting in the seat, had not seen her son for a while since he went to pick someone up. She missed him very much and wanted to go up to him to see if he was injured or had lost weight. However, because Si Ying, an outsider, was there, she had to suppress her worry and concern for her son and looked at Si Ying with scrutiny.

After Gu Chengyuan performed the ceremony, Si Ying also performed the ceremony in an orderly manner towards the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife, and said in a leisurely manner, "Yao'er greets the Duke of Zhenguo and his wife."

"Good children, get up quickly. Your mother and I have been waiting for you to come back day and night. You are tired from the journey. You two children should sit down quickly so that we can have a chat as a family."

Duke Zhenguo smiled and subtly hinted that Si Ying should call them parents, and he had already spread the news before Si Ying came, saying that Si Ying was his daughter. In his heart, Si Ying, the daughter of an old friend, was his daughter, the same as Ting'er and Yuan'er.

Si Ying was also very sensible and bowed again, "Thank you, father and mother."

After she and Gu Chengyuan sat down, maids soon came forward with tea and cakes to serve them.

The Duke of Zhenguo asked the two with a smile about their journey, while his wife remained silent.

What could she say?

Si Ying bowed at the entrance, following the standard etiquette of a woman from an official family, and her movements when she sat down were also smooth and flowing. This left the wife of the Duke of Zhenguo, who was waiting to find fault with her, speechless. She had not expected that this country girl would be so polite and her movements were so standard.

This ruined the plan of Lady Zhenguo, who had originally intended to make things difficult for Si Ying so as to arrange a teaching nanny for her. She had many excuses before, but now she couldn't say them all.
