Chapter 224: Old Grudges
Gu Erye's words made the atmosphere awkward, and it quickly cooled down.
Gu Yaoxin said that false prosperity is false, and it will be broken when you poke it.
Gu Qing stroked his beard, "The fourth child's temperament is uncertain, and he may not know where to go to play again." Hey, after the second brother returns to Beijing, I can also be more relaxed, and I will have to bother the second brother to help me take care of the fourth child in the future. ”
Gu Sanye pouted, "The fourth brother has been in infinite scenery recently, and there are people who have a banquet every day, either the son of this mansion, or the son of Xungui, and they are all people who play with the fourth brother." ”
The current meaning is just that Gu Siye is not doing his job, and the people he interacts with are the same as Gu Siye.
"I also heard that the fourth brother seems to have been looked at differently by His Majesty, why didn't the eldest brother take this opportunity to discipline the fourth brother?"
Second Master Gu seemed to sense that there was something wrong with his words, and explained: "I have no intention of disliking the fourth brother, but it is not good for the Gu family to let the fourth brother waste the opportunity again." ”
"Fourth master, fourth master is back."
The attendant at the door said, "Uncle, the fourth master is drunk." ”
The second lady mentioned the handkerchief to cover up the mockery, "Don't you let the fourth uncle help you back?" ”
"Mother, daughter-in-law will only ...... if she is in a hurry"
"It doesn't matter."
Old Madam Gu said lightly: "The fourth child is drunk all day, I am used to it, and I simply don't care about him, call Zhifeng in, I want to ask him, I don't know if the second child is back home today?" I asked him to follow the fourth, not only to serve him, but also to remind the fourth! ”
Gu Yao's sympathy, Old Madam Gu obviously dumped the blame for Gu Siye.
Gu Siye was drunk and didn't greet Gu Erye, it was the fault of the slave style!
The slave did not fulfill his responsibility to remind Gu Siye.
It's also quite miserable to be Gu Siye's minion, and Zhifeng has to take the blame for Gu Siye from time to time.
Zhifeng walked in and knelt down directly, "Rong slave inherits, the fourth master also wanted to go back to the house, but he met Lord He, he had to pull the fourth master to drink, the fourth master couldn't refuse, so he went to Cuiye Xuan with Lord He, Lord He saw that the fourth master liked fine wine, and specially asked the slave to bring back the unfinished wine, saying that he invited the uncle to taste it." ”
Gu Erye: "......"
Gu Sanye was surprised: "Lord He? Which one is Ho Adult? ”
"The emperor's favorite minister, Lord He, if you change someone else, the fourth master will definitely not go to drink, and now there are more people in the capital who invite the fourth master to drink, and the fourth master is not something that anyone can invite."
Gu Qing continued to stroke his beard calmly, "Lord He's fine wine is mostly rewarded by His Majesty, and it just so happens that the second brother is also a high roller in the wine, and he loves fine wine. ”
Gu Erye said with a smile: "This time it has dragged the blessing of the fourth brother, and there will be good wine to drink when I return to Beijing." ”
After that, he never mentioned the fourth master again, and even the second lady seemed a little more humble.
Gu Yao laughed secretly, he must be afraid that Gu Siye, who didn't play cards according to common sense, would make them lose face again.
Because Gu Siye was dragged by Lord He to drink, Zhifeng was only taught a few words, and he was not punished too seriously.
Gu Yao had been very silent, seeing the third lady chatting and laughing with the sisters.
The third lady is good at dancing with long sleeves and is good at words, even Gu Shan and Gu Jia like to listen to her.
The three of them got together as if they were sisters.
The third lady also wanted Gu Yao to be added, but she found that every time she mentioned Gu Yao, Gu Shan and the others looked a little strange.
She took this matter to heart, and understood that the relationship between their sisters was only very tense.
When she went back, the third lady told the second lady about it.
"Gu Yao is good-looking, and she is favored, and Gu Jin is her own brother, Gu Shan and Gu Jia are not protected by their own brothers."
The second lady analyzed softly: "And the fourth lady has been living in her mother's house, maybe she was angry and left." ”
"It is said that the old lady is square and obedient, hum, in fact, she is the most unruly. It's a pity that your own grandmother ......"
"Mother, didn't my father say that my grandmother's death was an accident?"
"Your father just said that, he still has to rely on the Gu family now, relying on the long house, how dare he say anything to avenge his mother?"
The second lady called a pair of children over, "I thought that Gu Siye was a weakness, but I didn't expect his luck to be so good that even Lord He invited him to drink!" ”
She glanced at her husband, who was counting the scrolls, behind the screen.
has been a husband and wife for many years, and she still doesn't know how depressed Gu Er Ye is at this time? !
Every time he was in a bad mood, he always waited quietly with a book alone.
"Hey." The second lady really loved her husband, and said softly: "Uncle Gu's entry into the cabinet is a foregone conclusion, and Gu Laosi, the only one who is lagging behind, has climbed up to Lord He again, your father wants to take revenge, let ...... The old lady is in pain, and I am afraid that it will be difficult. ”
"The son is strong, and the strong will change."
The second lady's voice was soft, "Remember this sentence, this is the only last word your grandmother left to your father. ”
"Yes, Mother."
The children nodded obediently.
The third lady said: "I think the sixth sister is not special except for being beautiful, and the relationship with the sisters is not good." ”
"She is liked by the old lady, and naturally the sisterhood is not close. But don't ignore her, the lady who can be rewarded by the palace will not put all her emotions on her face. ”
"It's better for the three girls to get along with her more, maybe they can take this opportunity to get ...... She made your stepping stone not necessarily. ”
"As for hands-on things, naturally Gu Jia can do it."
"Mother, I wrote it down."
The third lady nodded seriously.
******
"What do you say? Did you really meet the prince of Ruyang? Today, you also met Princess Ruyang? ”
Old Madam Gu almost fainted, and pointed at Gu Shan, whose face was full of reason, and said, "You ...... You just want to marry into the Ruyang Palace? Regardless of the girl's face, pulling on the street together? It was also seen by the fourth child. ”
"I am innocent with the prince, where is the pull? I just said a few words, and my father rushed over to slander me without asking. ”
Gu Shan said: "It's just that my father can't see me well!" I'm afraid I'll crush Gu Yao. ”
"Shut up, shut up!"
Old Madam Gu raised her hand and gave Gu Shan a slap, "Don't you say the fourth...... He's for you...... For you. ”
No one had ever touched Gu Shan's fingers, Gu Shan covered her cheeks, "You...... You are eccentric! ”
Pushing away the maidservant in front of her, Gu Shan lifted her skirt and ran away.
"Old lady, the second lady went to the ancestral hall and cried to the fourth lady's spiritual seat."
"Let her go."
Old Madam Gu closed her eyes, and Mother Li hurriedly sent the slave and maid who were returning to the incident to retreat, "Don't let the second lady hear about this." ”
The slave nodded in agreement.
Old Madam Gu instructed softly: "Pay attention to the concierge these days, if anyone has sent us a letter, especially the Ruyang Palace." ”
"Yes, master."
"Wrongs, she made sins but let the fourth child bear it, no wonder the fourth child was drunk and unconscious today, he understands it in his heart."
Old Madam Gu has already confirmed the identity of Princess Ruyang.
After all, no matter how well it is hidden, it is difficult to completely hide it from the person next to the pillow!
