The screams downstairs frightened Gu Qingzhou.

The one who screamed was the fourth aunt of the Gu family, Tai Xiangxue, whose amniotic water was broken and was in contractions.

The bursts of contractions made her feel pained and screamed miserably.

Everyone was rushing to send the fourth aunt to the hospital, Gu Guizhang hugged her body, and the second aunt and the third aunt helped lift their feet and moved the fourth aunt to the car.

"It hurts, it hurts!" The fourth aunt is still crying.

Everyone went downstairs, including Gu Yan, Gu Wei, and Gu Shao.

Gu Guizhang's car went first, and the second and third aunts were also going, and when they saw Gu Qingzhou standing next to them, they asked, "Is Miss Qingzhou going?" ”

Gu Qingzhou nodded and got into the carriage.

She was wearing slippers embroidered with peonies, and she was draped in a thick windbreaker, and in it were pajamas, but she couldn't see it, because she was tightly wrapped.

Gu Shao and the others stood at the door, hesitating whether to follow.

Gu Ying asked Gu Ying: "Sister, what should we do?" ”

"Go back to sleep." Gu Yan said.

Gu Shao also followed the two sisters upstairs, but they couldn't go if they wanted to, and the family's car drove away.

Sitting in the car, Gu Qingzhou listened to the second aunt and the third aunt talking.

"When it came time to dinner, she was a little unwell and should have been sent at that time." The second aunt blamed herself too much.

The third aunt said: "It's the old man who wants to go to the day, after all, the emergency department is too expensive at night." ”

Gu Qingzhou was silent. She felt that the third aunt was too guessing to be good, Gu Guizhang didn't take it seriously, and wanted to drag it out until daytime.

The fourth aunt is in good health, and she gave birth to Lian'er in the countryside before, and the child quickly landed.

When I arrived at the hospital at 4 o'clock in the morning, the child fell to the ground at 4:50, and it was a daughter.

Gu Guizhang's face was not good-looking.

He didn't want a daughter, he wanted a son.

After dawn, the ladies can go in to see the fourth aunt and the child.

The baby weighed five pounds and four taels, red and wrinkled, not beautiful, but the second aunt and the third aunt boasted with a clear conscience, praising the child like a flower.

The fourth aunt has been napping with her eyes closed, her face is tired and sad, she probably wants to have a son too, right?

In the Gu family, what is the use of a daughter?

Gu Guizhang has four daughters, how did he treat them, the fourth aunt also saw it.

It was precisely because I saw it that I was disheartened.

When Gu Guizhang was sitting on a chair outside and smoking, Gu Qingzhou stepped forward and said to him: "Abba, my classmate made an appointment to congratulate her on her birthday, and it may take two days, or I will call and leave." ”

"Excuse what?" Gu Guizhang waved his hand, "Don't you need to be sociable?" If you promise someone else to quit again, who will deal with you in the future? ”

He threw the cigarette butt on the ground in irritation and stepped on it: "I gave birth to a loser, what is there to be happy about?" And what can you do at home to help, can you change diapers, or can you breastfeed? Go get busy with you! ”

"Yes." Gu Qingzhou said, "Abba, I'll go first." ”

Gu Guizhang waved his hand and motioned for her to go first.

The morning light is faint, the early morning of February is slightly cold, the bottom of the sleeve is soaked with coolness, the mist in the distance is like a light veil lingering, and the green trees are bathed in the moist morning mist.

In the distance, the morning glow was bright and red, dyeing the stratus clouds through, and the scorching sun hid behind the brocade-like clouds, half-hidden.

Today is a good weather, but Gu Qingzhou can't feel the spring flowers.

Gu Qingzhou returned to the ward, said goodbye to them, went home to freshen up first, and then went to Li's house to meet.

The Li family has a large truck loaded with flowers, and there is a faint fragrance of flowers in the carriage, as well as the smell of earth.

Because there were fourteen girls, the car couldn't fit in, so I had to use a truck.

Li Hua was quite embarrassed.

Although the smell was not good, everyone still rushed to go up, and did not show disgust, for fear that their classmates would laugh at their hypocrisy and lack of education.

Everyone should have a beautiful and delicate futon on the bench.

After Gu Qingzhou got in the car, he relied on Yan Luoshui to take a nap, and Huo Huijing also came and sat on Gu Qingzhou's left hand side.

Li Hua was very excited all the way, singing and laughing with everyone from time to time. She is naturally lively, and she has outstanding talents, and she has no scheming, and she is very relaxed to play with Li Hua.

"Is Qingzhou sick?" Seeing Gu Qingzhou sleeping, Li Hua asked worriedly.

Gu Qingzhou didn't really fall asleep, she was napping, and when she heard this, she opened her eyes and said, "No, I woke up at three o'clock in the morning." ”

Then, she told everyone about her aunt's birth of a daughter.

Most of Gu Qingzhou's classmates are the original daughters-in-law, and they all have a certain innate dislike for the children born to their aunts.

They talked a lot about their own family, all about their aunt's wife, and they felt the same hatred and hatred. Even if the aunt and wife in the family are not bad, they are embarrassed to say it in this environment.

Gu Qingzhou continued to nap.

"Ah Hua, why didn't you invite Wan Min?" When Li Hua came to Gu Qingzhou's side, Gu Qingzhou asked her.

Li Hua was not embarrassed.

"You're telling the truth." Gu Qingzhou said, "Did Wan Min say something?" ”

Li Hua nodded: "Wan Min said, you and Luo Shui may not like her very much, and it will be too disappointing if she comes." I thought, I'm closer to you, there's no reason not to invite you, just invite Wan Min, so she said it herself, I'm still very happy, Wan Min will think about me. ”

If Wan Min didn't say that, Li Hua wouldn't invite her.

Li Hua may be naïve and simple, but her family is in politics, and her parents are not stupid.

Yan Luoshui is the daughter of the general staff of the junta, and Gu Qingzhou is the future daughter-in-law of the junta, which is far better than Wan Min.

"Then come to the flower garden for your birthday, did Wan Min propose it?" Gu Qingzhou asked with a smile.

Li Hua said: "Yes, yes, you guessed it accurately." Wan Min said, I'm eighteen years old this year, I always have to have something different, I eat cake every year, and a few friends give gifts, which is really boring. ”

Gu Qingzhou knew.

Wan Min has been talking to Li Hua for a long time, it can't be in vain.

Gu Qingzhou smiled and said to Li Hua: "There will be a surprise today." ”

"Really?" Li Hua was excited, "Did you arrange it?" ”

"No, Wan Min arranged it." Gu Qingzhou said with a smile.

Li Hua was puzzled: "Wanmin? ”

Gu Qingzhou nodded affirmatively.

"Will she come?" Li Hua said, "She said herself, it's inconvenient for her to come over, in fact, I know that you and Luo Shui don't mind."

"She'll come. The surprise arrived, how could she miss it? Gu Qingzhou said, "Perhaps, she will bring others here." ”

"Who, who? Who else? Li Hua was already confused at this moment.

Gu Qingzhou patted her hand lightly: "If you understand, it's not a surprise!" ”

Li Hua was in a good mood.

There are no elders and no parents around this year, and her birthday is all up to her temperament.

As he spoke, the truck came to a halt, and the driver put a low bench.

Everyone stepped on the bench and got out of the car, it was fresh and exciting, and the mood was very high.

In early spring, the trees in Yuecheng are verdant, and the flowers are not yet blooming, so when you go to the flower garden, you can see the red and green in the greenhouse from a distance, competing for beauty, and everyone's interest is raised.

Wan Min said: "Settle down to drink some tea first, or go to the flower garden first?" ”

"Let's go to the flower garden first!" Everyone spoke in unison.

The servant, who was in charge of the flower garden, brought them rubber rain boots.

Li Hua said: "Put them all on, the flower garden is full of mud, don't stain your leather shoes." ”

The rain boots are specially prepared by the Li family, they are all brand new and dry, and they are very comfortable and flat to wear.

Everyone followed Li Hua and entered the first flower garden greenhouse.

It's warm in the greenhouse, and the flowers are sweet.

There are roses planted inside, all kinds, the gardener sprinkled water, the full petals, the crystal droplets are embellished, and the fragrance is fierce.

There are red roses, pink roses, white roses and even the rarest black roses.

Wan Min hinged a few roses for them to play with.

In addition to roses, there are other varieties, such as orchids, narcissus, lilies, chrysanthemums, osmanthus, white tea, etc., all kinds of colors, flowers in various seasons.

Girls love flowers, and they all sank for a while, and they didn't really want to come out after lingering in the flower garden for two hours.

The steward came in and said, "Fifth Miss, it's one o'clock now, and lunch is ready." ”

Li Hua smiled: "Come back in the afternoon, let's go eat first." I'll take you back to see my family's own flower garden, it's even more fun than this. ”

And they went away gladly.

In this Zhuangzi, there are almost not many farmhouses, all of which are the fields of the Li family, filled with countless flower greenhouses, and there are several houses, all of which are lived by the workers and stewards of the Li family.

There is a courtyard in the middle, an old-fashioned house with wooden doors and windows, and the entrance is a two-person high screen, and the courtyard is bypassed by the screen.

The materials in the courtyard are exquisite, the furniture is simple and exquisite, and the Nanmu furniture in the whole house is dumbfounded.

Nanmu is the most expensive, better than the sofa shipped from Italy, and the Li family is actually placed in the countryside.

"I've never seen a bed like this, what is it called?" The joyful cries of the girls were heard from the inner room.

Gu Qingzhou glanced at it and saw a red sandalwood stepping bed, this kind of bed is like a small house, with doors and windows, and there are all kinds of small cabinets in it, where you can put jewelry, snacks, etc.

Just when they were amazed around the old-fashioned stepping bed and were about to surround it, Gu Qingzhou quietly went out.

She walked out along the ridge for about ten minutes, and gradually reached the main road, and only stopped when she could not see the Li family's house.

She waited less than three minutes before she saw two lieutenants running from behind the woods, and they had changed into their most ordinary clothes, gray trousers and blue-brown shirts, like farmers.

"Miss Gu, what's wrong?"

Every time Gu Qingzhou is left alone, especially when she goes to a remote place, she hopes that the adjutants who follow her will show up, which is a self-evident agreement.

"There will be a group of people coming to Zhuangzi today, there may be several, you should pay attention and arrest them when you see them. Did you bring a gun? Gu Qingzhou asked.

These lieutenants are all very vigilant, highly skilled in martial arts, and carry guns.

"Bring it, Miss Gu."

"After being caught, carefully interrogated, a little ruthless, let them all explain clearly. After I understood it, I put a flare gun and handed me the letter, and I was stationed nearby. Gu Qingzhou said.

Adjutant said yes.

They don't ask anyone, they just do what they are told.
