Rudonghai

Chapter 148 Palpitations
"In this case, Qiuhong will continue to take care of my private money, and Qiulu will take care of my clothes?" Gu Yunxiao didn't expect that the two ordinary people in front of him, who couldn't even be found after being thrown into the crowd, were actually One of Xiao Jiawei.

She didn't think Xiao Jiawei's abilities were mediocre, but she was afraid that these two maidservants had their own merits, and she didn't dare to neglect them at will.

Gu Yunxiao was frightened one after another today, and was very sleepy when night fell.

Mrs. Zhen Guohou sent someone to invite her to have dinner with her, but Gu Yunxiao couldn't refuse, so after washing up, she took Qiuhong over.

Seeing that her complexion was not very good, and she was still full of tiredness, Mrs. Zhen Guohou frowned, pointed to a few dishes and let the maid behind her pick them up: "Try these dishes, they are a little lighter, But boiled it all afternoon with high soup, which is the most gentle and nourishing."

It's hard to give up the hospitality, Gu Yunxiao picked up a few chopsticks, only to feel that his mouth was full of fragrance.I didn't want to eat much at first, but I was able to eat two more bites.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhen Guohou hurriedly asked someone to serve the dishes again, which made Gu Yunxiao feel guilty: "It should be the girl who served the dishes for the wife. How can I work hard for the lady, but the meal was delayed."

"It's nothing. Normally, I just eat with Lord Hou. Now that you are added, it's very lively. I don't have to just bring food to Lord Hou. Old couples, what to eat and what to eat, have long been clear. , Sometimes it’s really boring.” Zhen Guohou, who was sitting on the side, smiled helplessly when he heard it, but he didn’t take it to heart.

There are only two maids around to help serve the dishes. It doesn't look like a wealthy family, followed by a large number of maids and mothers-in-law.

The table was not big, Master Hou sat at the main seat, Madam Zhen Guohou sat next to her, and Gu Yunxiao sat next to Madam's left hand side.

The few people are like an ordinary family, and there is no rule of eating and talking. Mrs. Zhen Guohou even brought food to Gu Yunxiao herself, and smiled kindly: "Eat more, your body is too thin, you have to gain weight a little."

Gu Yunxiao looked at the mountain of vegetables that hadn't gone down in the bowl, and couldn't help showing a wry smile.

Seeing that she was in distress, Zhen Guohou hurriedly stopped the wife next to her: "Didn't this girl say she was sick before, if she just recovered, how can she eat more, it's almost enough."

Mrs. Zhen Guohou also saw that Gu Yunxiao really couldn't eat anymore, so she nodded regretfully: "I will invite the imperial doctor to come and see tomorrow, don't let it be that I was treated harshly in Gu's mansion, leaving hidden dangers."

She spoke bluntly, Gu Yunxiao was a little embarrassed, Zhen Guohou glanced at his wife.

Mrs. Zhen Guohou snorted coldly: "I can see clearly how the Gu family treats the girl. Is there anything I can't say?"

She took Gu Yunxiao's little hand again and said: "You girl is kind-hearted, and the whole family is biased, so you can bear it. If it were me, the world would be turned upside down long ago. Let's see if they dare to bully others? But don't be soft-hearted, I've seen a lot, and when I see my daughter is rich, I'll come over eagerly, and fight for you like a sweet potato. If I knew this before, why did I do it in the first place?"

Mrs. Zhen Guohou said sincerely: "If you are really in trouble, just let Lin'er come forward to solve any problems in the future. You will hide behind and don't watch or listen. You don't have to make yourself uncomfortable."

Gu Yunxiao knew that she had good intentions, and he was afraid that his heart would soften for a while, and it would be troublesome if he couldn't shake it off: "Madam, girl understands."

When Gu Yunyan was planning to plot her own life, Gu Yunxiao was already chilled, and she didn't want to have anything to do with the Gu family.

Especially after Master Gu heard about it, the first thing he did was not to ask about his injury, but to defend Gu Yunyan, which made her extremely disappointed.

After eating, Mrs. Zhen Guohou saw that she could barely open her eyes, so she didn't keep Gu Yunxiao any longer, and only told Qiuhong to take good care of her.

When Gu Yunxiao returned to Xiangzhu Garden, he was changed into clothes and skirts in a daze, washed his hands and face, leaned on the warm and soft quilt, closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.

She was really tired, but she had a long dream.

For some reason, Gu Yunxiao actually dreamed about what happened many years ago.

At that time, Mrs. Gu was still there, and she often took Gu Yunyan to the lakeside, and liked to put her arms around her and call out "babe" softly.She hid far away behind the tree, watching quietly.

Gu Yunxiao envied that Gu Yunyan could act like a baby in her mother's arms, and that her small face carved in pink and jade could win praise from countless guests.

But for her, Mrs. Gu's face has always been cold and indifferent.When asked about himself, it was also about his daily life and diet, and he dismissed the serving maids with a few words, and he didn't know how much he listened to.

I remember a time when Yun Xiao accidentally broke a pair of glazed beads that Master Gu gave to Gu Yunyan, and Gu Yunyan cried so hard that she couldn't breathe.

Mrs. Gu was very distressed, and told her mother-in-law coldly that she would not let herself step into Diecui Garden again in the future, so as not to break Gu Yunyan's things again.

Gu Yunxiao still felt aggrieved, she was called by Gu Yunyan, she heard a crisp sound as soon as she entered, and for some reason, the colored glaze beads fell to her feet, which made people jump.

In the end, Mrs. Gu blamed her for being naughty. Not only did she not let her enter the Diecui Garden, she even ordered her mother-in-law to take her to the room to reflect on herself.

I don't know if the servant girl forgot, or if she didn't light the candle on purpose.Gu Yunxiao was so frightened that she curled up under the blanket, her little face was so frightened that tears were all over her face.

The next day the nanny found that she had a high fever, and the doctor said that she was overly frightened.Mrs. Gu also only responded lightly, and didn't come to Xianghe Garden to take a look at it, and asked the maid to bring the soup and medicine, and the restraint was lifted, so nothing happened.

Gu Yunxiao now thinks about it, it is clear that Gu Yunyan called her over on purpose, and the Liulizhu was also broken by this sister.Fearing that Master Gu would be unhappy, Gu Yunyan took herself as a scapegoat.

I didn't understand it when I was a child, but later I realized that it was only because the child was afraid of being scolded and was encouraged by the maids around him that he came up with such a bad idea.

Later, Gu Yunyan didn't pay much attention to her, as if she was superior and disdained to be her sister.Gu Yunxiao didn't take it to heart either, they were sisters after all, and they didn't have any overnight feuds.

But she was wrong, Gu Yunxiao still remembered that the black bear approached him, and the bloody breath seemed to rush towards him.

She only had four arrows on her body. The moment she saw the black bear, she thought a lot.

How could there be such a coincidence, when Gu Yunyan took away all her feather arrows?
Gu Yunxiao was completely disappointed in Gu Yunyan, this sister is the only one who respects me, she always thinks she is right.

What she doesn't like, what she finds annoying, just get rid of it.What she broke and did wrong, she just pushed it onto others.

The former is like my own sister, while the latter is Yan Zhengnan and Lin Yushi.

Gu Yunyan never felt that she was wrong, that's why she was not reconciled, even felt aggrieved.

Gu Yunxiao remembered that the glazed beads were broken, Master Gu specially bought a pair of more beautiful colored glazed beads at a high price from thousands of miles away, and then yelled at himself in a rage.

Also, when he was in danger at the hunting ground, Master Gu didn't come to see him, but he gave Gu Yunyan a lot of things to shock him.

Why is it wrong to treat me like this?
Beads of sweat slowly slid down from the pale cheeks, a figure slowly stepped in from outside the house, Qiu Hong Qiu Lu made a short salute and hurriedly retreated outside the door to wait.

The visitor stretched out his hand, and gently slid it across Gu Yunxiao's cool cheek.

The drops of water on the fingertips, I don't know if it is sweat or tears.

He sighed softly, and wiped off the sweat on Gu Yunxiao's forehead and the teardrops from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve.

He lifted her up with one hand, hugged her in his arms, and patted her on the back clumsily and gently.

Gu Yunxiao felt the warmth and subconsciously shrank into his arms.

The visitor was startled, stopped his hands, and quickly started patting again.

As if in his mother's arms, Gu Yunxiao smiled at the corner of his mouth, feeling that the nightmare had faded away, and finally fell into a deep sleep again.

When she woke up in the morning, she felt refreshed all over, as if the haze on her shoulders had all dissipated overnight.

Qiu Hong called for hot water, looked at Gu Yunxiao and said with a smile: "The girl's complexion is better this morning than yesterday, but did you sleep well?"

"Well, it seems that I had a good dream later, but I couldn't remember it when I woke up." Gu Yunxiao shook his head, and after washing, Qiu Lu handed him a pink dress.

She frowned: "This dress is too gorgeous, and the material doesn't look like it came from the Gu residence?"

"Young lady has good eyesight. The clothes in Gu's residence have not been cleaned up. My lord has asked Mrs. Zhen Guohou to prepare some replacements. Xiuniang will come later. You can choose whatever style you like, and it will be recorded in the Xiaofu's account." Come on." Qiu Lu raised her dress and looked over eagerly.

Knowing that there are not many replacement clothes, they were all chosen by Mrs. Zhen Guohou, and Gu Yunxiao couldn't refuse, so she had to ask two maids to wait and put them on.

Qiuhong looked at it carefully and said: "The girl is very energetic in this dress, why don't you ask the embroiderer to cut a few more pieces?"

Gu Yunxiao is not picky about clothes, as long as he can wear them.There are no other little girls in the house now, so she doesn't have to worry about bumping into other people's shirts, it will be embarrassing at that time.

So she waved her hand and said with a smile: "That's it, I'd better choose more plain colors. My face is too brightly dressed, which is always a bit strange. If other girls see it, I'm afraid it will be a joke. "

"The girl is going to be Mrs. Taifu, who dares to joke?" Qiu Hong said seriously, reminding: "You should forget what happened to the girl before. After becoming a mistress, going out with the adults, only Xian For the sake of others, who dares to criticize? If so, Master Taifu will be the first to spare!"

Gu Yunxiao's face flushed slightly, and he also understood that Qiuhong was kind.The wife of Yipin Grand Tutor is the object of everyone's fawning when she goes out. If she wears this dress today, I'm afraid no one will dare to be like her in the future.

Unlike before, she was so embarrassed that she could only replace it secretly, without making people laugh at her.

"I've made a note of it. It's time to forget about the past." She sighed, and after she got married, she was a member of the Xiao family, so she couldn't embarrass Xiao Xilin.As for the Gu family, it is only one day, which seems to be quite a long way away.
