Female supporting roles rely on food to save themselves

Chapter 272 Gossip
Gu Xiang blinked slightly, "Actually, I really don't like to meddle in other people's affairs, unless I can't help it."

The women in the room couldn't help laughing.

There is warmth in the tent.

Qiu Li glanced at Mrs. Xiao who entered the door calmly. She felt somewhat embarrassed, and she didn't know how much her words had been overheard. She accepts.

Miss Xiao used to do things like needlework when she was at home, and now she is even more proficient. She remembered how her mother taught her how to divide thread, how to thread needles, and how to embroider.

At that time, her mother didn't love her for going to the study room to read all day long. She always felt that she was a big girl, and reading those messy things would change her temperament, but she loved her and couldn't bear her torment. She always let her go and let people go. But she began to regret it again, so she changed ways to coax her to do other things, such as mixing fragrances, arranging flowers, being a female celebrity, etc. A Niang always said that her eyes were not good, her embroidery was not good-looking, and she could not wear needles, so she would be fine. Detain her and sit by her side for half an hour, an hour.

As Lady Xiao took the soles of her shoes, tears fell from her eyes and wet the back of her hands.

Apart from having completely different ideas from hers and being incomprehensible to each other, her mother actually treats her like pearls and jade, and really loves her.

Just now, the county magistrate delivered the verdict, and she asked Brother Wang to accompany her to see her mother, and told her mother about this, she planned to go to the capital to find Wei Sheng.

Her mother was stunned for a long while, crying loudly, beating her while crying, as if she had chosen a dead end for herself.

At that moment, a wave of hostility suddenly rose in her heart. Fortunately, Miss Gu entered the door when she heard the noise. Seeing her mother like that, she was neither annoyed nor angry. She just dragged her to boil the water. Washed her mother's head, took a bath, and changed into clothes.

The whole Li family didn't make things difficult for her, her two uncles didn't show up, and although the servants were not diligent enough, they were polite.

Especially when she saw Mrs. Gu, those servants of the Li family who had always been domineering, looked like a mouse seeing a cat, wishing to slip away by the wall. At that time, she felt amused. This little lady of the Gu family is clearly gentle, Treat everyone under him with great respect.

She had never seen such a good-natured nobleman as Miss Gu.

These fools!

After tidying up, Gu Xiang brought over a large bowl of fermented glutinous rice balls and asked Mrs. Xiao to feed them to her mother.

In fact, Li Shi is not yet forty, 37 years old, in modern times, she is in the prime of life, but now, she has already begun to call herself an old woman, and her preferences are not inconsistent.

After two sips of fermented glutinous rice balls, Li Shi couldn't howl even if she wanted to.

The sweetness in the fermented glutinous rice balls is very light, but this lightness is very attractive. Li Shi is not the kind of person who pays attention to appetite, and he is not as good as before when he gets older. She doesn't eat, nor is she greedy.

At this time, I don't know if it's because of the snacks or because of her daughter, but she also tasted something, she stopped her tears, and just ate while dazed.

Gu Xiang didn't talk to Mrs. Li, she saw that Mrs. Li seemed a little shy of strangers, nervous when seeing strangers, and had complicated emotions towards her, so she only talked to Mrs. Xiao slowly.

The two sat opposite each other, their expressions were calm, and their attitudes were even more light-hearted. They chattered here and there, and generally the most talked about was how to walk lightly along the way.

Gu Xiang kept asking what he wanted to buy on the way.

After all, the capital is expensive, and it is not easy to live in the big city. Moreover, if Mrs. Xiao wants to find Wei Sheng, she may not be able to find him as soon as she goes to the capital, and she may have to stay for a while.The so-called poor family is rich, and it is serious to prepare more things when you go out.

Listening to it, her mother's mind was off. When she left Li's house, how could her mother care about being uncomfortable?
I hurriedly packed a big bag of thin and thick clothes, as well as the pearls and hairpin jewelry at the bottom of the box that were easy to carry.Especially when her daughter opened her mouth with a bunch of innocent words, she didn't understand anything at all, the old man was so shocked that she almost burst into foul language.

"Is it enough to bring only silver? Do you think you have mountains of gold and silver to bring you at home? On the way to the barren mountains and mountains, you only have silver but no food. You can eat gold and swallow silver to fill your belly?"

Mrs. Xiao laughed, she never refused anyone, she brought whatever she wanted, she just dug out all the bulky things in the dowry and sold them, and the cash she got back asked Brother Wang to help, secretly took more than 100 taels of silver, and gave it to Stuff it into her mother's trunk.

Capital
Lee House
Mrs. Li stared at the letter in her hand with a sullen face, her mind was buzzing, she got up and rushed out the door, and went straight to the study.

At this time, Li Dalang was playing with the treasured sword he had just acquired in the study room. The knife on the table looked ordinary at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it was murderous and restrained. It was obviously a fierce weapon.

Li Dalang was about to test his knife, when the door was pushed open with a bang, and a stack of letter papers flew over his face.

His face was slightly gloomy, and when he looked up and saw that it was his wife, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, reached out to take the letter paper and scanned the ten lines at a glance, the expression on his face froze a little bit.

I heard the madam's growl right next to my ear: "That good sister of your family is so fierce, she is a hundred times more resistant than her mother!"

"Is it her turn to take care of the affairs of other people's families? What kind of witness is there? A widow is about to remarry, without the words of a matchmaker, without the orders of her parents, and even the groom's official is not around. She just married like this. When she met this Not to mention hiding far away when waiting for something, but going up to the top, and even helping the husband who bullied the widow, who are these people! Tell me who this is!"

Li Dalang was speechless for a moment.

Mrs. Li was so angry that she almost fainted: "Does this mean that the reputation of our Li family is not good enough? Do you want to add more fuel?"

When she thought of that sister Huan returned home, she, the wife in charge, would have to take care of everything, and now her head started to throb.

Thinking that there are still big and small in the family, two biological and three concubine daughters waiting to be married, she wished she could jump into the lake right now.

"You insist on taking that sister Huan back to the mansion. She is the blood of the Li family, so I can't control her. But if she comes, don't blame me for being cruel. If my daughter learns her bad habits, I will fight you hard!"

Li Dalang sighed, could only hold the letter, and replied vaguely, worried in his heart, if he was really uneducable, could it really make her die of illness like this?
He couldn't make up his mind, so he had to confess and let his subordinates pay attention to the news of sister Huan.

He wrote another letter to Ah Da overnight, asking him to keep a close eye on it so that no more accidents will happen.

Ah Da: "..."

The snow finally stopped.

The old dog packed his bags early, and Xue Ying even re-smoked Gu Xiang's carriage and incense.

The entire compartment of the carriage is covered with thick fox fur, even if you only hold a small hand stove in your hand, there is no need to burn extra charcoal.

Gu Xiang looked out from the window of the car, and saw the Duke riding to the side of the car, there was no anxiety in his eyes, it can be seen that he didn't care too much about the delay of the trip, his eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "Let's go."
