Chapter 121
Gu Xiangna felt sorry for Mrs. Gu, and felt distressed seeing the child's life.I regret that I shouldn't have married someone so hastily because of the friendship of the elders.
So I am very concerned about Qiao's original marriage, and today I asked Mrs. Zhang to be more considerate.
Hearing Mrs. Zhang say what Mr. Gu said, Mrs. Gu's eyes immediately turned red.People say that only when you are wronged do you miss your loved ones, and she thinks it is like this.
I am strong and have been able to bear it, because of Gu Xiang's remorse, I almost shed tears regardless of my image.
Then he put his eyes aside, and asked for the gift list from Nanny Jin. Seeing this posture, it was considered thoughtful to come here this time, at least the gift seemed important.
It's not that Mrs. Gu cares too much about these external things, she will add all the things given by the Duke's Mansion to Qiao Guxin's dowry, but this is also the attitude of the Duke's Mansion.
"That's the reason. In short, sister Xin doesn't have to live like me." The husband ran away with an actor, unless Shen Qiuhe died, otherwise he would never do such an outrageous thing.
He bowed his head and agreed, with an unnaturally strong nasal sound in his voice.
Just looking at it, Gu's face changed instantly, and he threw the booklet aside.
Seeing that Gu's complexion was very bad, Zhang beckoned someone to bring the gift list to her for a look, "What's wrong?"
"The things sent by the Duke's mansion today are gifts I added to them." Gu Shi gritted her teeth angrily. She made up the list of gifts at that time, and she remembered everything on it clearly.
Mrs. Zhang closed the gift list abruptly, but now there is no need to read it.
Listening to He's words, I always feel that there is something in every sentence. Originally, the two families were already torn apart, because the imperial decree got together again, and they thought it was fine.
But now, even in face, I don't bother to pass.
It's not married yet, so it's wasted like this, if it's married, it might be so bad.
As a mother as well, Mrs. Zhang naturally understands Mrs. Gu's current mood.
No one in the room spoke, listening to the wind blowing outside.No wonder it's snowing today, it's really not a good sign.
After a long time, Mrs. Gu stood up suddenly and knelt down towards Mrs. Zhang, "Just treat me as selfish and ask my sister-in-law for help."
Zhang stood up in shock, "What are you doing, get up quickly."
But no matter how she helped her, Mrs. Gu still couldn't get up.Tears fell down, "I know that my arrangement will embarrass my sister-in-law, but I have no other choice."
She will definitely fight for Joe's heart, and even if she can't withdraw her marriage, she will definitely not let them bully her.
Mrs. Zhang quickly wiped away tears for Mrs. Gu, "What are you doing? We are all family!"
Gu's begging is definitely asking Prime Minister Gu to come forward. Of course, his father doesn't need to meet outsiders, but he always has to take care of his sister-in-law and the children of the Gu family.
Mrs. Zhang sighed, "Niang Wan, you know my sister-in-law's temper for so many years. In my heart, you are the same as my natal sister, but I have to say my ugly words first. No matter how close my sister is, I can't compare to her." Son, you always have to tell me what you are going to do?"
Mrs. Zhang's words didn't sound nice, but they were rough and unreasonable. If she said that she agreed regardless, then she was indeed dealing with it.
This marriage was bestowed by the sage, if you do too much to offend the sage, it will be a serious crime for the whole family, even if it is Gu Xiang, he is no more than the emperor.
Now that the daughter-in-law is still pregnant, there must be no accidents in the family.
However, if it was an ordinary help, she would naturally not say anything else.She also watched Qiao Guxin grow up, and she couldn't bear to let the child suffer.
Gu Shi sniffed and said what was in her heart.
Mrs. Zhang thought for a moment after hearing this, and then nodded heavily, "I don't need your elder brother to come forward for this matter, I will definitely be able to handle it beautifully, so that no one will notice."
This is also Zhang's selfishness. If it is really unfortunate that it is exposed, then she will be responsible for it alone, and she will be the sister-in-law herself, so I am sorry for Gu.
On the carriage of the Duke's Mansion outside, Mrs. Zheng lowered the curtain to prevent air leakage, "Mother has been wronged today."
Look at the aunt and sister-in-law talking in a strange way, as if everyone wants to climb into their house.
He hummed, but didn't say anything.
Today's meal was really boring. She came here to discuss the matchmaker's visit, but they didn't say yes or no.Naturally, the Holy Majesty was not afraid of their repentance when he bestowed the marriage, but speaking in front of the future in-laws was untrue. To put it bluntly, he was taking Joe.
Rubbing secretly, I have to talk about high and low.
Mrs. He was afraid of the cold, so Mrs. Zheng pulled the fox fur next to her to cover Mrs. He, "My daughter-in-law looks very bad at the old lady of the Hou Mansion."
People of the older generation say that men are afraid of wearing boots and women are afraid of wearing hats. This is the most accurate for elderly people.
If a man's legs are swollen and his feet are swollen, I'm afraid it's not good.And women are most afraid of swelling on the face.
Looking at the old lady's dull eyes and swollen eyelids, I don't know how long I can endure.
When He's legs warmed up, his face softened a little, "I hope I can survive until next year." If he died early, what should we do with this happy event?
She despises Qiao's original intentions, but the Holy Majesty has no choice but to get married as soon as possible. If it is really not good, she will let Shen Qiuhe take a concubine after a while.
Mrs. Zheng sighed involuntarily, "My daughter-in-law is also very surprised. It is said that the parents are not far away, and the old lady is so sick. Master Hou still has the mind to go outside, saying that he is really so loyal to the emperor, most likely I've been doing nothing all my life, and now I'm suddenly awakened?"
Tsk-tsk twice, "There is no filial son in front of the long-term hospital bed, and my daughter-in-law is clearly hiding when she sees this. The family style of the Hou Mansion is like this, and I don't know our duplicitous Miss Qiao. "
These words stab He Shi's heart like a knife.
The father is like this, how can the girl be better?
If she was ill, the only one she could count on was the eldest daughter-in-law.
Back in the mansion, Mrs. He went directly to see Qiao Chenqiuhe.
In the afternoon, I felt a little fever again, but fortunately, after taking the medicine, it subsided. The doctor said it was a good sign, and the fever probably won't come back tomorrow.
It's just that after the fever subsides, I sweat a lot, which is mainly due to the stuffiness in the room.
As soon as He entered, he felt a wave of heat rushing towards his face.
"Mother is back?" Shen Qiuhe said vaguely with candied fruit in his mouth.
Naturally, a man like him is not afraid of suffering, but he drank too much medicine in the past two days, and even his saliva tasted bitter. Seeing that Wang Si had brought it over, he took one and ate it.
"How can this cough be sweet? The people below don't have any intentions." He took two quick steps, and hurriedly asked someone to take the candied fruit away, so that Shen Qiuhe's cough would get worse after a while.
As for what was in Shen Qiuhe's mouth, He looked over, and someone handed over the handkerchief. Under He's gaze, Shen Qiuhe could only spit it out.
"I went to the Marquis Mansion today. If your father is still there, I will definitely let him deal with the Holy One." He sighed a long time, then lowered his head, "Get married earlier, After half a year, I will accept a gentle and gentle concubine."
This means that the trip to the Hou Mansion was not good, Shen Qiuhe frowned slightly, trying to say that there was some misunderstanding, but he swallowed it back, maybe after getting along for a long time, the misunderstanding will be resolved.
Mrs. Zheng was talking in the outer room, and she heard Mr. He's words clearly. At this moment, her mind moved, and she immediately laughed.
On the other hand, Mrs. Gu called Qiao over early in the morning of the second day. The Feng family's guest business has been going on for so long, and almost everything that can be prepared has been prepared.
As soon as Qiao Guxin came in, Mrs. Gu handed Qiao Guxin a gift list directly, "Look at it." She smiled and motioned for her to open it.
Qiao Guxin unfolded suspiciously, the long row, Qiao Guxin was dazzled, then raised his head and looked at Gu Shi in puzzlement.
Gu patted the seat next to her and asked her to sit down and talk, "This is the dowry prepared for you a few years ago. There is a shop and a Zhuangzi."
Because Qiao Guxin's marriage has been settled long ago, Gu's dowry has been prepared long ago.
Qiao Gu looked at Mrs. Gu puzzled, "Why did mother suddenly bring up this matter?"
Mrs. Gu lowered her head slightly, "In the past two days, I have sorted out the inventory all of a sudden, thinking that you are getting older, so I have a good idea of what to look for in advance."
Originally, there were more things, but when the marriage was withdrawn, the Gu family compensated some to the Duke's Mansion.
After finishing speaking, Gu's eyes moved outside again, "It's been a long time since I saw you, it's because I was thinking about her."
If it was Qiao's handkerchief handed over from his heart, it's just that her father was dispatched as an official in Jincheng two years ago, and the whole family followed him. A few days ago, they said that they were married, but Jincheng is far away from the capital, so I don't know. Isn't it too late for the makeup gift given by the Qiao family?
Speaking of Rushi girl, Qiao Guxin also misses her quite a bit.
When I left Beijing, I thought I would be back soon, but who knew that the farewell would be a lifetime, and I would never see him again.
"I heard that Jincheng Shancui people are good. I don't know if it's true or not. If I have time, I really want to go and see it." Seeing that Qiao had read the gift list deliberately, Gu asked someone to put it away.
Qiao Guxin's eyes crooked with a smile when he heard this, "No, if there is such an opportunity, I will definitely want to see it. If so, I will be happy over there."
Speaking of Xingchu, Qiao Guxin really felt that An Nai couldn't help being impulsive, so he could go back to the house and write a letter to An Rushi who was far away in Jincheng.
After writing, seal it with red wax, and then let the rosary be handed over.
"Probably Miss An also misses you very much." Nian Xiang also laughed, because the two hit it off and used to be together.But since Miss An left, Qiao Guxin doesn't like attending banquets much anymore.Even if he went, he was dealing with it, and he never got close to anyone.
Qiao Guxin nodded with a smile, and asked Nianxiang to find out all the things An Rushi had given him before. He hadn't seen them in his life, but this time it seemed like yesterday.
Slowly put your hand on it, touched it lightly, and then your eyes flashed, "No."
Why did Mrs. Gu mention An Ru so well, "Go and inquire, the man from the Duke's mansion came yesterday, but what happened?"
Nianxiang saw that Qiao Guxin's expression was not right, so she didn't dare to delay to inquire.
It's just that after inquiring about it, I didn't find anything wrong. Even if there was a temptation between words, I couldn't tell anything else.
The only special thing is that after waiting for the people from the Duke's Mansion to leave, Mrs. Gu left Mrs. Zhang alone to talk secretly, not knowing what to say.
Qiao Guxin tapped on the table lightly, thinking secretly in his heart.
Because Qiao Wenzhi was also coming to be in charge of the classmate, after Qiao Wenzhi came, Qiao Guxin didn't talk about it again. The two sisters were looking at the account book, and the people below came to report to Qiao Guxin, saying that there was a vegetable farmer making trouble below.
Qiao Guxin asked Nianxiang to take the robe and get up, "What's going on?" he asked as he walked.
The steward of the house lowered his head, and then reported.
Because there are not as many vegetables in winter as in summer, the vegetables have to be built in a greenhouse to grow.Originally, the price was to be raised, which was undoubtedly given by the Hou Mansion, but who knew that the vegetable farmer who came here today raised the price again.
The person in charge didn't dare to suppress the matter, so he came to report to Qiao Guxin.
If it is normal, the person in charge can handle it by himself. There is a fixed price for this dish in the capital. If you don't do business in the Hou Mansion, someone will naturally be willing to do it.
It's just that now that Qiao Wenqing has won the number one prize, Tan Hualang will be entertained in the future. At this time, it may not be so simple for the vegetable farmers to raise the price suddenly.
Not to mention that this person has been giving tribute to the Hou Mansion for so many years, even ordinary people would not dare to speak nonsense in the Gaomen compound.To put it bluntly, who gave this vegetable farmer the courage?
The steward of the Hou Mansion was naturally careful, and immediately reported to the master when he noticed something was wrong.
Qiao Guxin frowned slightly, "Have you found out what happened recently?"
The person in charge immediately nodded, and must have made preparations before reporting to the master.It is said that the original vegetable farmer was ill, and the son-in-law came to take care of the house, and the price increase was also proposed by the son-in-law.
This son-in-law likes to gamble on weekdays, and I heard that he lost money yesterday.
In this way, it is a matter of a gambler trying to get money.
Qiao deliberately thought about it, then greeted the manager and gave some instructions. Joe was willing to increase the price, but asked the manager to find out how much money the man owed, as long as it was enough for him to pay back.
"Here, Miss." The steward hesitated a little, isn't this fueling the opponent's arrogance?
Dealing with gamblers, I am afraid that there will be endless troubles.
Qiao deliberately smiled indifferently, "Just do as I tell you."
After explaining, Qiao Guxin didn't look at the gambler, but led Qiao Wenzhi to the porter's room to rest, just in time to hear the vegetable farmer yelling.
"Isn't it true that you can't even come up with such a small amount of money in your majestic mansion? If you don't have any money, just say it, and I can find a home as soon as possible. You know, my family's food is even given by the Ministry of Internal Affairs." The son-in-law shouted loudly in the yard.
Pooh!
The servant of the Hou's mansion spit out secretly, he really is not afraid of those who don't know, and he is still talking nonsense here, how can he imagine something that can enter the palace for the nobles?
Seeing that no one paid attention to him, the son-in-law shouted cursingly, "If you don't have any money, just say it, what kind of high-ranking compound is charged here, sir, I don't recognize any high-ranking officials, only money. If you don't have money, you're bastard." Egg, hurry up and roll as far as you can.”
Hearing that the son-in-law was getting more and more outrageous, the servants on the left and right were also annoyed, "Say one more thing, believe it or not, tear your mouth apart?"
After being scolded by the servant, the son-in-law sat directly on the ground, "Tsk tsk, don't let people tell you what's wrong, the number one scholar will be superior to others, and you can beat up a good family at will?"
Qiao Wenzhi couldn't bear to listen, and frowned slightly, "Big sister is just a rascal, so hurry up and call him out. There are a lot of vegetable farmers in the capital, so why should he be the only one?"
