Chapter One Hundred and Twenty Eighth Haixi Bo House Says Pro
After living in the Hou Mansion for four or five days, Gu Jiu was always on the lookout, for fear that the eldest and youngest grandmother, Jia Shi, would have some shortcomings.
Worrying so much every day, this day really can't pass.
Gu Jiu felt a little anxious in her heart, but she couldn't say it. She could only keep it in her heart and vented herself by practicing calligraphy every day.
The maid Qingmei walked in from outside, "Girl, my wife has sent someone to take everyone back to the house."
Gu Jiu stopped writing and asked, "Who did Mrs. send over?"
"Sister Chunhe and Sister Ping were sent here. The two of them are in Songhe Hall at the moment, and they will answer in front of the old lady."
Gu Jiu said, "Let's also go to Songhe Hall to see."
Qingmei hurriedly put a cape on Gu Jiu.
After entering the twelfth lunar month, the weather is getting colder.
It hasn't snowed yet this year, but looking at the situation, it is estimated that there will be snow in the next few days.
Stepping on the slippery ground to Songhe Hall, Gu Jiu walked into the main room after being notified by the maid.
The old lady Wei has been raising her for a few days, and she is in good spirits.
When she saw Gu Jiu, she immediately laughed. He waved to Gu Jiu, "Xiao Jiu, come to the old man."
Gu Jiu stepped forward and greeted the old lady first.
The old lady Wei Shi cheerfully said, "Don't talk about those false manners, come, sit down beside the old man."
Gu Jiu obeyed and sat down next to the old lady.
The old lady Wei Shi said to Chun He and Mama Ping: "I wanted Xiaojiu and the others to stay for a few more days, but since your wife has said something, I won't be that wicked person. Let Xiaojiu and the others go back today. go to the government.
When you go back, tell your wife that the children love to read. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month next year, let the children go to the school to read every day. Our Houfu manages a meal, and she doesn't have to worry about pen, ink, paper and inkstone. "
Chun He smiled all over his face, "Thank you old lady. If my wife knew that the old lady was thinking about the girls, she would be very happy. It is said that the old lady is the best at training people. After a few days of absence, the slaves feel that the second girl is a little bit. It's different. It's all well-tuned by the old lady."
The old lady Wei Shi laughed, "Training little girls, Lao Shen has a little experience. The girls are getting older every day. At this time, it won't hurt to let them learn more with Lao Shen."
"That's exactly what the old lady said.
It's just that the New Year is approaching, and the mansion is very busy, so the wife ordered the slaves to take the girls back to the mansion. "
Chunhe speaks very well.
With just a few words, the old lady Wei Shi burst into laughter. Opinions on Mr. Xie were not that big at the beginning.
At this time, Gu Yue and Gu Shan came.
After being informed by the maid, the two entered the main room.
Chun He looked at Gu Yue, his eyebrows twitched twice, his eyes were very complicated.
Gu Yue didn't notice it, but Gu Shan and Gu Jiu noticed Chun He's small movements.
Xie Shi was so anxious to send Chun He to pick him up, guessing that something was wrong, and it was inconvenient to tell the old lady in person.
The old lady Wei Shi told Gu Jiu and the others that when they go back, they will go to the Hou Mansion when they have time to visit her old man.
Gu Jiu responded with a smile, "When the grandniece has the opportunity, she will go to the Hou residence to greet the old lady."
The old lady Wei Shi smiled and said, "Lao Shen is waiting for you to come over. With you here, there is a lot of excitement in this mansion."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled.
The old lady Wei Shi has prepared a gift for every girl in the Gu Mansion, which is very precious.
Two pieces of silk, two pieces of satin, two pieces of Songjiang cotton cloth, plus a red gold hairpin.
Gu Jiu, Gu Yue, and Gu Shan are direct descendants. Except for the different styles of hairpins, everything else is the same.
Gu Zhen, Gu Lin, and Gu Jun came from a concubine, so the gift was slightly reduced by 30%.
For such a precious gift, Gu Jiu quickly declined.
The old lady Wei sternly said, "The elder gave it, I dare not say no. You can accept the old man's wishes."
At this meeting, the three ladies also came to Songhe Hall and followed the old lady to persuade Gu Jiu and the others.
Gu Jiu could only accept gifts. I made a decision in my heart. When I go back, I will prepare a thoughtful gift and give it to the old lady next time I come to Hou's mansion. Right as a New Year's gift.
The three ladies also prepared gifts, only 20% less than what the old lady prepared.
In this way, when Gu Jiu and the others got into the carriage and returned home, everyone had a bunch of gifts.
Gu Yue secretly sighed, "The Hou Mansion is really generous."
Gu Shan snorted, "Third sister be careful when she speaks."
Gu Yue looked disgusted and impatient, "Understood, stop talking nonsense."
Everyone gets on the carriage and will go back to the next door to Gu Mansion.
After getting off the carriage at the second door, everyone brought gifts and went back to their rooms.
After resting for a while, changed his clothes, and then went to the Furong Court to greet Mrs. Xie.
Xie's old lady is very unhappy, don't mess with the old lady's expression.
Everyone didn't know why, and they didn't know who made Xie's unhappy.
"Come back, sit down and talk."
Xie's face was stern, and his eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one.
"Have you been in trouble these days in the Hou Mansion?"
Gu Yue was the first to say, "Don't worry, mother, my daughter has always abide by the rules and dare not embarrass her mother."
Xie shi narrowed her eyes and stared at Gu Yue.
Gu Yue was inexplicably flustered, and hurriedly lowered her head.
Xie snorted coldly, "The Xie family sent a letter yesterday."
Because Master Gu gave an order to the concierge, Xie's family was not allowed to come to the door. Therefore, the Xie family can only deliver letters to the door.
Xie looked at Gu Zhen, "The Xie family wants to propose a relative girl."
Gu Zhen's face turned pale with a swipe.
She bit her lip and said nothing, just looking at Xie Shi.
Xie said, "Don't worry, girl Zhen, I have already rejected this matter. There should be no more entanglement with the Xie family."
call!
Gu Zhen spit out the turbid air in her heart, fortunately, fortunately.
Xie shi then said, "Girl Jane, you have to be mentally prepared. Your marriage is not so easy to solve. It may not be settled in a year or two."
Gu Zhen gritted her teeth and remained silent.
"I also told Aunt Hu about this. You can ask your aunt for the specific situation."
Gu Zhen hummed, "I listen to my wife."
Xie said with a tired face: "Gu Yue, Gu Shan stay, everyone else should step down."
Huh?
Is this the end?
When he first entered the door, Mr. Xie's expression clearly showed that he had a lot to say.
Gu Jiu looked at Gu Yue, could it be that Gu Yue was in trouble again?
Gu Jiu bowed and left the Furong Courtyard, telling Xiao Cui to pay attention to the movement of the Furong Courtyard.
Xiaocui said, "Don't worry, girl, this matter is on the servants."
"You have to be vigilant, and don't let your wife find you."
"The servant knows."
Gu Zhen left in a hurry, she wanted to rush back to the room to talk to Aunt Hu.
Gu Lin followed behind Gu Jiu, "Second sister, let's go together."
"I'm going to say goodbye to auntie, are you going too?"
Gu Jiu looked at Gu Lin.
Gu Lin nodded, "Of course I'm going. Auntie worked so hard to teach us the stewardship director, but she didn't ask for peace when she came back. That's not good."
Gu Jiu laughed, "The fifth sister has grown up and is much more sensible than before."
Gu Lin smiled embarrassedly, "I also learned a few things in Hou Mansion for a few days."
"In this way, studying in Houfu Academy is still helpful to Fifth Younger Sister."
Gu Lin nodded again and again, "Although I don't like reading, I can still listen to Luo Fuzi's reasoning. A lot of what Luo Fuzi said is very practical."
As Gu Mei said, although Luo Fuzi was serious, he was not rigid.
She is also from a big family, and she knows the situation of the big family very well. In her spare time, she will explain some truths, a person's experience in life.
This is very helpful to Gu Lin, who is still in Novice Village.
The two sisters came to the Songbaiyuan.
"My niece greets the eldest aunt. How is the eldest aunt these days?"
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, laughed, "Xiaojiu and Lin girl have a heart. Just came out from your wife?"
Gu Jiu nodded, "Exactly. The wife left the third sister, the fourth sister spoke, and the eldest sister hurried away in a hurry. The niece and the fifth sister were thinking of the eldest aunt, so they came to greet the eldest aunt."
The eldest Mrs. Zhang smiled and said, "Sit down and talk. Do you know why your wife is in such a hurry to pick you up?"
Gu Jiu shook her head, "I don't know yet. Does auntie know the inside story?"
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang nodded, "Early this morning, the concierge came to report that the Haixi Bo Mansion had sent someone over. I wondered, the marriage with the Haixi Bo Mansion was not rumored, why would the Haixi Bo Mansion still send someone? Come here, and specified that you want to see your wife. Later, I learned that the Haixi Bo mansion was here to discuss marriage. "
"Marriage?" Gu Lin's eyes widened, "Could it be that the marriage of eldest sister has taken a turn for the better? Haixi Bo is still reluctant to give up eldest sister?"
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, shook her head, "That's not true."
Gu Lin hurriedly asked, "Auntie, tell us quickly, whose marriage is Haixi Bo's house coming to for?"
Gu Jiu pulled Gu Lin, "fifth sister, don't worry, listen to the aunt speak slowly."
After Gu Jiu's reminder, Gu Lin came back to her senses and looked ashamed.
"Let the aunt laugh, I'm just worried."
Gu Jun laughed, "Fifth sister, don't worry, my mother won't care about you."
"Jun'er is right."
The eldest Mrs. Zhang thought for a while, "As far as I know, the Haixi Bo mansion sent someone to come to discuss the marriage of the third girl."
"what?"
Gu Lin reacted the most, she shouted, and quickly covered her mouth with a look of disbelief, "It turned out to be the third sister. How could the Haixi Bo residence like the third sister? Who is the third sister going to marry?"
A series of questions made Gu Lin almost stunned.
Gu Jiu was also surprised.
What the hell did Gu Yue do, the Haixi Bo mansion would actually send someone to discuss the marriage.
Gu Yue and Zhao Erlang already have skin-to-skin relationship, right?
Gu Jiu recalled carefully, that day, when the Hou Mansion banqueted guests, Gu Yue didn't seem to have left the flower hall.
No, no, she remembered not seeing Gu Yue for a while.
Could it be that Gu Yue really met Zhao Erlang and carried everyone behind his back, so he was in love with Zhao Erlang?
too exaggerated.
He also had to admire Gu Yue's ability to act.
It's too bullshit.
Gu Yue is indeed a man of action. He does whatever comes to his mind without any hesitation.
Gu Jiu asked, "Auntie, is this true?"
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang nodded, "It's absolutely true. Don't say you were surprised, I was also shocked when I found out. The person who came to the door was the woman next to Mrs. Haixibo. It seems to be for Zhao Erlang to say kiss. Xiaojiu , how can Gu Yue and Zhao Erlang have contact?"
Gu Jiu shook his head, "I don't know anything about this."
Gu Lin also said, "I don't know either. I'm almost scared to death. I wonder if the big sister will cry a lot after learning the news."
Yes, Gu Zhen is afraid there will be another trouble.
Gu Jiu looked at the eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, "Eldest aunt, is the eldest sister's marriage in order?"
Mrs. Zhang said: "The marriage is not in a hurry. During the Chinese New Year, the mansion will treat guests. We will discuss it later."
In this way, Gu Zhen's marriage has taken shape.
After saying goodbye to Mrs. Zhang, Gu Lin left in a hurry. She was going to see Concubine Bai to report the latest situation.
Gu Jiu went to visit her brother Gu Jun.
Gu Jun's leg injury has gotten better.
Gu Jiu asked with concern, "The weather has been cold these few days, does your brother's injured leg hurt?"
Gu Jun walked back and forth in the room a few times and said, "Look, my legs are much better. I didn't feel any pain even when it rained. Sister, you're amazing, and you're not bad compared to the imperial physicians at the Tai Hospital."
Gu Jiu laughed, "Brother, don't compliment me, I can't compare to the imperial doctor of the Imperial Hospital. They have rich experience, but I am just a novice."
So far, Gu Jiu has only three patients. She counted one for herself, one for Gu Jun, and one for the eldest grandmother, Mrs. Jia.
The doctor is very experienced in this line of work.
Gu Jiu was still a rookie and did not dare to compare with the imperial physicians in the imperial hospital.
However, Gu Jiu also has his own advantages.
After being baptized by modern medicine in later generations, observing and studying various diseases, and reading a lot of medical books, the amount of knowledge she has accumulated is unmatched by any imperial physician.
These days, medical skills are mostly passed down by families.
Everyone cherishes their own brooms, and what they have learned is actually very limited.
But Gu Jiu has no such limitation.
Her reserve of medical theoretical knowledge can be said to be more than ten streets away from the imperial physicians of the imperial hospital.
"Sister, don't be humble. Some time ago, if you hadn't given me needles every day, my injured leg would definitely be in pain when it rained. Now it's better, and it doesn't hurt even in rainy days. After I fully recover, I will join the army. "
Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment, "Big brother, do you want to understand?"
Gu Jun raised his chest, "Joining the army is my ambition, sister, you will support me."
"I want to support my brother, but my father may not support you. And the list of books I gave you, have you read them all?"
Gu Jun immediately confessed, "Sister, you have to help me with my father. I am slowly reading the book list you have listed, and I have really gained a lot."
"As I said, you also need to read more to fight a war."
"My sister is right."
Gu Jun grinned, a typical girl control.
Gu Jiu told Gu Jun not to worry. The matter of joining the army will be more certain to wait until next year.
Afterwards, Li Chuan was instructed to take good care of Gu Jun, and Gu Jiu returned to the Zhilan Courtyard.
Qingzhu ran back from the outside, "Girl, there is news from Xiaocui that it was the wife who made a big fuss. I haven't calmed down yet, and she is still scolding the third girl. Even the fourth girl was implicated and was scolded by the wife. for a while."
"That's it!" Gu Jiu smiled, "Anyway, Gu Yue is benevolent. Rather than scold her, it is better for her to prepare a dowry and send Gu Yue out early."
"But the eldest girl and the girl haven't married yet, so how can the third girl get married first before you."
"It doesn't matter! You don't have to pay attention to these things when you get married. Besides, Gu Yue's situation is special, so it would be better to marry her out sooner. It doesn't matter if my big sister and I get married two years later."
Qingmei reminded, "Don't forget, girl, the third girl is not yet married, and will not be married until next autumn. Even if the marriage is decided now, it will not be until tomorrow autumn at the earliest."
"It will take more than half a year. I wonder if the third girl will make other troubles." Qingzhu sighed.
Gu Yue is now synonymous with causing trouble.
Everyone obeyed her, how could it be so troublesome.
Add up the other girls in the mansion, and none of her would do anything.
Gu Jiu didn't care about this, she said, "This is what the wife has to worry about, so don't worry about it."
"The girl is right, why should we worry about the third girl. And she won't appreciate it."
In Furong Courtyard, Xie Shi really wanted to slap Gu Yue's face.
But this dead girl was beaten and scolded, and she was beaten by Master Gu some time ago, but she still did not change her stubbornness.
Xie Shi was so angry that his blood was surging, and his head was dizzy.
"Yue'er, aren't you telling the truth? What did you do on the day the Hou Mansion held the Plum Blossom Banquet?"
Gu Yue knelt on the ground, tears and snot dripping down.
She cried and said, "Mother, my daughter really didn't do anything. You have to trust your daughter."
Xie Shi angrily said, "Since you didn't do anything, how could Haixi Bo's house come to discuss marriage? If you don't explain things clearly today, you just kneel for me."
