Chapter 7: Change(2)

Gu Xian asked Qingshu what she was thinking about for a long time, but Qingshu never said a word, she was shocked and scared: "Hongdou, what's wrong with you, you tell your mother!" ”

Chen's mother also said, "Girl, if you have anything to say, you can say it." If you don't say this in your heart, it hurts your body. ”

Gu Xian's body is heavy and her spirit is short, and Chen's mother has been taking care of Qingshu these days. Naturally, I know that Qingshu is different from before. I think my own girl used to be cheerful and lively, smiling all day long. After returning from Peach Blossom Village, the girl doesn't like to talk, and always likes to be alone in a daze. However, Chen's mother thought that it was the cause of her illness and thought that she would be fine after she recovered from her illness, but she did not expect that the situation would become more and more serious.

Qingshu hung his head and thought for a long time, and then he came up with a suitable excuse: "They said that when my mother gave birth to a little brother, they didn't want me, and they wanted to send me to the countryside." ”

After speaking, Qingshu hugged Gu Xian and cried: "Mother, I don't want to go back to the countryside." Mother, don't want me. ”

In fact, what she said in her heart was that her mother should not die, she should live well, and don't leave me alone.

Gu Xian was angry and angry: "Who told you these bastard words?" ”

Qingshu didn't speak, just cried.

Gu Xian suppressed the fire and coaxed her: "Hongdou, you were born in October by your mother, how could your mother not want you." Red Bean, don't listen to their nonsense. ”

Qing Shu stared at the tears on his face and asked, "Really?" ”

took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped Qingshu's tears, Gu Xian said, "Naturally, it's true." Red Bean, whoever tells you these bastard things in the future, you come back and tell me. ”

"Okay."

Gu Xian was still thinking about what happened just now: "Hongdou, you were too rude just now, and I will apologize to your aunt and Rutong later." ”

Qingshu also understood that there was something wrong with her behavior just now, but she could apologize, it was impossible: "Mother, I'm sleepy." After saying that, he deliberately yawned.

At first glance, I knew that it was pretending, but Gu Xian was reluctant to scold her anymore.

Wei Shi saw Gu Xian and asked with concern, "Are the red beans okay?" ”

Gu Xian sighed and said, "You have to take care of it, otherwise you will fall into the root of the disease." ”

"How can it be so serious?" There was a nervous look on his face, but he didn't think so. It's just that I'm infected with a cold, and I can get better by taking two medicines. As a result, this girl has not been well after raising her for half a month, and she is too delicate.

Gu Xian didn't want to say anything about it anymore, so she changed the topic: "Is there something wrong with my brother and sister coming to the county seat?" ”

Wei Shi came to Gu Xian this time, and there was really something wrong: "The oil and salt at home are gone, so I have to buy more and go back." And it's almost summer, so I have to buy some cloth and go back to make summer clothes. ”

When Xia Yue heard this, her face was sarcastic. Every time I come to the county seat to buy something, I deliberately tell my master. Then, the master will give her the money.

Gu Xian felt that she didn't serve the two elders in the countryside, and it was a filial piety to send more things back.

Gu Xian said: "Since my brother and sister want to go shopping, let's go quickly!" ”

Wei Shi looked at Gu Xian in disbelief.

After Gu Xian married Lin Chengyu, she went to Fucheng with him to study, and only returned to the county seat after Lin Chengyu was promoted in September last year. In the past six months, every time Wei came to the county seat to buy something, as long as she told Gu Xian, Gu Xian would give her money to buy something.

Merriam-Webster is very complacent about this, and she feels that she has saved a lot of money for her family.

Seeing that Wei Shi didn't move, Gu Xian said, "Brother and sister, you better go and get the things done early." Otherwise, there would be no boat back to the village. ”

Wei didn't know what kind of style Gu Xian smoked, so he didn't help buy things. Seeing that Gu Xian was about to enter the house, she could only bite the bullet and say: "Sister-in-law, the silver I brought was stolen by a thief, can you borrow me five taels of silver first, and I will pay you back next time I come to the county seat." ”

Gu Xian turned her head to look at Xia Yue and asked, "How much silver is there at home?" ”

Xia Yue was in charge of Gu Xian's money box, and no one forced her to know more about how much silver there was in the family. Hearing this, she said quickly, "Madam, I just paid the girl's medical bills in the morning. Now there are only two taels of silver left in the house. ”

Webster lost his voice and said, "How is it possible? "The Gu family used to be the richest man in Taifeng County, although it was not as good as before because of the death of the old lady Gu. But the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and Gu Xian is the only daughter of Old Lady Gu, how could she be short of money!

Xia Yue said: "Second wife, my wife went to make several pieces of jewelry in order to make up for the eldest master!" ”

This is not made up by Xia Yue, it is true. Gu Xian is arrogant, and she has never asked for the Gu family's money since she got married. Even if Lin Chengyu wanted to go to the capital to catch the exam, she didn't talk to Mrs. Gu, but went to make a few pieces of jewelry.

Wei didn't believe that Gu Xian had no money, but there was no way if he didn't give it to her: "In this case, then I'll buy it next time." ”

Gu Xian nodded and said, "Xia Yue, you send the second wife." Then she went into the house.

When it came to this, Wei could only take Lin Rutong away.

When she entered the house and saw Qingshu asleep, Gu Xian gently touched her face, with a look of guilt on her face.

Chen's mother said: "Madam, in the future, except for the filial piety to the old lady and the old lady during the New Year's holidays, you don't care about the rest." "Every time it was three or five taels, it was thirty taels of silver in half a year.

With so much silver going out, but not a good word, Chen's mother felt very overwhelmed.

Gu Xian shook her head and said, "That's my husband's father and mother, how can I not care?" ”

When Gu Xian got married, in addition to gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, Mrs. Gu gave her two shops on Sanyuan Street, 200 acres of high-grade paddy fields and 50 acres of mulberry fields for dowry. Gu Xian doesn't know how to do business, and both shops are rented out. But even so, several industries have a profit of four or five hundred taels of silver every year. It's just that Gu Xian has to use everything well since she was a child, and Lin Chengyu's pen and ink constraints on studying are a lot of expenses, and she also has to socialize. So much so that over the years, Gu Xian has not saved any money. Otherwise, he wouldn't have made up a plate for Lin Chengyu as jewelry.

But no matter how nervous she was, she could still take out five taels of silver, but Qingshu's thing made her unhappy, so she didn't want to give money. The people of the Lin family didn't take care of Qingshu to make her sick and eat bad stomach, and then they broke their mouths in front of Qingshu, thinking that she had no temper when they wanted to give her money again.

Seeing that she didn't refute, Chen's mother was overjoyed: "Madam, you are about to give birth, we still have to save some more silver." In the future, except for the filial piety of the Lin family during the New Year's holidays, you don't have to worry about anything else. ”

Gu Xian was silent and said, "In the future, I will have to save some money." ”

In the past, I didn't spend money sparingly, so that I didn't have any savings. But I have to raise two children soon, and raising children is a particularly expensive thing. If I don't save now, I'm afraid I'll have to use it as jewelry again. This kind of thing can be hidden from people once, but how can outsiders not know about it many times. Gu Xian wants to save face the most, but she doesn't want to be ridiculed in the future.

In fact, when Gu Xian married Lin Chengyu that day, everyone laughed at her for having a problem with her vision.

Since Qingshu was sick, Gu Xian has been sleeping in the West House, and after talking to Chen's mother, she went back to the house to rest.

Although it was only a small change, Chen's mother was still overjoyed. She didn't know how many times she had persuaded Gu Xian over the years, but unfortunately it was useless.

However, thinking of the reason for Gu Xian's change, Chen's mother didn't feel good in her heart. This time, the girl really suffered a great sin.
