Chapter 18: The Turmoil Caused by Copybooks (4)
Some things have to be figured out by yourself, otherwise it is useless for others to say more.
Old Lady Gu said too much, and she didn't want to waste her tongue anymore, so she said expressionlessly: "Gu Xian, if you weren't disappointed in your mother-in-law, how could Qingshu say something like that!" Gu Xian, go back and reflect on it! ”
Gu Xian was a little embarrassed and said, "Mother, then I'll come back to pick up Qingshu in two days." She knows very well that she can't take Qingshu away today.
Zhizi Mo Ruomu, looking at Gu Xian's expression, she knew that she didn't feel that she was wrong. Old Lady Gu sighed, who is to blame? can only blame her for not teaching Gu Xian well.
Back in the bedroom, Mrs. Gu looked at Qingshu who was leaning on the bed in a daze, and hugged her in her arms and said, "Good girl, your mother was also annoyed and lost her sense of proportion just now, don't hate her." ”
Qingshu touched her hot face and asked, "Grandma, I really gave birth to my mother, didn't I pick it up?" ”
She admits that what she said just now was a little inappropriate, but she wouldn't have been so heavy. Coupled with the previous incident, Qing Shu really suspected that she was not biological.
Old Mrs. Gu couldn't help laughing and said, "Don't think nonsense, when your mother gave birth to you, your grandmother was guarding by you!" ”
Looking at Qingshu's bloodless little face, Mrs. Gu was very distressed: "Good girl, you can sleep!" ”
Under the lullaby humming by Old Lady Gu, Qingshu soon fell asleep.
When she got outside, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but say to Mother Hua: "You say, did this child really collide with something unclean?" Although she scolded Gu Xian, what Qingshu said also made her suspicious.
Mother Hua has been with Mrs. Gu for thirty years, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the master and servant are like sisters: "Compared with before, the girl has nothing wrong except for becoming sensible and motivated. Old lady, the girl's admiration for you is from the bottom of her heart, which cannot be pretended. ”
There is really something unclean, and it is impossible to cling to the old lady like this.
Old Lady Gu thought about it, nodded and said, "You are right, I think too much." ”
Mother Hua said: "Old lady, you also know your aunt's temperament. The old slave thinks that you should take the girl to Ganquan Temple to worship the Buddha and ask for two peace charms for the girl to wear. ”
Old Madam Gu nodded and said, "Tomorrow we will go to Ganquan Temple early in the morning." ”
Qingshu has remembered now, and she is no longer a little doll who is ignorant and doesn't understand anything. If Gu Xian went to ask the monk to exorcise evil spirits for Qingshu, the two would definitely have a disagreement.
In case this happens, she felt that it would be safer to take Qingshu to meet the presiding officer of Ganquan Temple.
If there is a host of Ganquan Temple, I believe that Gu Xian and the people of the Lin family will no longer doubt it.
As soon as the grandfather and grandson had lunch, the second grandfather Gu brought Gu Hejie to the door.
Mrs. Gu let Qingshu go back to the bedroom, and she received the father and son in the small flower hall.
As soon as he saw Mrs. Gu, Second Mrs. Gu apologized repeatedly: "Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry, this matter is ridiculous with Jie and her mother." ”
This poster was bought for Qingshu, yesterday the wife couldn't ask for it, and today the little daughter-in-law went to her niece and said. I don't know this, I thought they were trying their best to snatch the child's things, and spread the word, and their whole family didn't want to be human.
Gu Hejie lowered his head and said, "Auntie, it's all my fault, I shouldn't tell my mother about this." Auntie, please dissipate your anger. ”
Old Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "Because this calligraphy was bought for Qingshu, I didn't give a good answer to your mother yesterday." I asked Qingshu last night, and Qingshu knew Guan Hejie's future, and agreed to give up the copybook without hesitation. ”
Second Master Gu shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law, how can this be done?" How can we ask for something refreshing. ”
Gu Hejie looked at Mrs. Gu with blank eyes.
Old Lady Gu said with a smile: "If it is anything else, I will definitely not follow, but this is related to Hejie's future." As your daughter-in-law said, after worshipping a famous teacher, He Jie was admitted to the Jinshi and became an official, which is also the glory of the entire Gu family. ”
Mao and Gu Hejie took it for granted, thinking that they could worship a famous teacher with a copybook. But I don't know that these Confucians cherish feathers the most, if they don't meet their requirements, let alone a notebook, even if they send a box of gold, they won't accept him.
Second Master Gu panicked when he heard this. Apprenticeship may not be successful, and he was admitted to the Jinshi to be an official Guangzong to honor his ancestors, and the loss of Mao's family can be said.
Old Lady Gu said to Xingyu, who was standing next to her, "Go and call the girl." ”
Qingshu came over with two notebooks.
According to her temper, she would rather tear up this note than give it to Gu Hejie. But there is no way, the situation is stronger than people, and in order not to have a bad relationship with the second room, I can only compromise.
Second Master Gu was startled when he saw the slap mark on Qing Shu's face, and hurriedly asked, "Who hit it?" ”
Mrs. Gu said: "Xiaoxian didn't know who she heard that Qingshu didn't want to let go of the calligraphy, she came over and reprimanded Qingshu, and Qingshu felt wronged and replied with two sentences. This pregnant person has a big temper, and she gave Qingshu a slap when she got angry. ”
Second Master Gu was ashamed.
Qing Shu handed the two notebooks to Second Master Gu: "Second grandfather, I already have a notebook." I can't use the copybook sent by my second grandmother, so I still let my second grandmother give it to someone in need. ”
Second Master Gu took the notebook and looked at it, and suddenly felt so ashamed that he wanted to burrow into the ground. immediately found an excuse and left with Gu Hejie.
Old Lady Gu touched the back of Qingshu's head and said with a smile: "Why did you send this note back to your second grandfather." ”
Qingshu said directly: "The calligraphy sent by the second grandmother, the words on it are not as good as Zhong's mother's." ”
Old Lady Gu poked Qingshu's forehead and said, "You girl, when did you become so tricky." "I really don't want to lose at all, but she likes it.
Qingshu muttered and said, "Grandma, just that word, how can the second grandmother be embarrassed to let her find a copy." ”
Mrs. Gu said with a smile: "Your second grandmother used to be the young lady of the master bookkeeper, and the master of Mao has been operating in Taifeng County for many years, and he even has to give him three copies of the county order." So when she was studying in the county school, she was sought after as the first talented woman in Taifeng County. Over the years, she has been proud of it. ”
Master Mao was dismissed from his post because he offended the county order and was calculated by the other party and made a big mistake. He offended many people in office, and after he was removed, the wall fell down and everyone pushed him, and the Mao family soon fell into defeat. Otherwise, Gu Lao Er would not be able to marry her.
Qingshu's brows twitched, and she asked, "Grandma, she doesn't do this kind of thing often, right?" ”
Seeing that Mrs. Gu nodded, Qingshu was also speechless.
After a pause, Qingshu said, "Grandma, that notebook cost us one hundred and sixty taels of silver. Grandma, they're not going to just take it, are they? "Even if you don't give money, you have to make up for it. Otherwise, it's a loss.
Old Mrs. Gu couldn't laugh: "I didn't expect us Qingshu to be a little money fan!" Don't worry, your second grandfather still wants face, and he will definitely compensate you. ”
That's good, otherwise she will be so distressed that she can't sleep at night.
Old Madam Gu changed the topic: "I'm going to go to Ganlu Temple tomorrow to offer incense, you go with me." ”
Qingshu nodded and said, "Okay." It seems that today's incident not only made his mother suspicious, but even his grandmother was not at ease. cough, it's still not calm enough, no matter what you do in the future, you can't be impulsive, you have to think twice.
