Chapter Seventy-Four: Beware
Qingtong was punished and almost lost half her life, Gu Anning only heard about the cause of the incident but didn't see it with her own eyes, and she didn't know where to start when she pleaded, but she did her best to serve her in the courtyard for so long without merit and hard work.
The second lady just drove people out and didn't let Mother Chun send them to the hands of the people, and the maids sold from the Gu family either entered the Red Mansion or sent those poor rural Zhuangzi to marry those old Guangmen who couldn't marry their daughters-in-law.
If you marry Lao Guanghan, there will be some way out in the future, but if you enter the Red Mansion, you will have to stay obediently and live in the Red Mansion for a few years.
Just like Aunt Liu, even if she came to the door of the Gu family, she had a name from a dusty background, and even if she gave birth to a daughter, even if she was a girl from the Gu family, she had to weigh one or two.
Leaving Qingtong for one night, Qingxu and Qingzhu took medicine and changed her clothes in front of her, and Qingyuan helped her clean up her usual things.
Gu Anning also prepared fifty taels of silver for her, and it was enough to eat and drink tightly when she went out, and the maids of the Gu family lived a fine life, no better than those ordinary girls, and they knew how to eat and wear.
Now Qingtong will naturally have some plans to leave the Gu family, as for what he plans to do, it is not something that others can say, and on the second day, Qingxiang and Qingzhu sent people out of the back door and hired a carriage.
"Qing glaze..."Qingtong opened his mouth to speak, and his red and swollen little face burst into tears, and he didn't dare to speak more at the moment, so he quickly took out a letter and endured the pain. "You must give this to the girl, you must give it to her!"
Yesterday, Qingtong got up in the middle of the night to write this letter, and she didn't dare to alarm people, her hands had already been beaten and the skin was open, and she cried several times just by writing a letter.
I didn't see the girl before I put it.,I must have gone to the school.。
Gu Anning gets up earlier than the maids every day, but the three green glazes in front of him know this, and they take turns to get up early every day.
The head of the blue glazed chin should be. "Don't worry, I'll do it, but you will take care of your injuries when you go back. ”
Qingtong nodded slightly, leaned back in the carriage, and Qingglaze explained to the groom. With a whip of the horse, the carriage departed towards the path. Seeing the carriage go away, Qingzhu sighed. "Let's go back too!"
Qingtong left, the atmosphere in the courtyard was inevitably a little low, and when Gu Anning came back from the school, Qingxiang handed her the letter.
After reading the letter. Gu Anning's originally indifferent face couldn't stop changing, and with a shake of his hand, the letter fell on the table, and a few words were clearly written at the end.
Beware of the Second Lady!
After Gu Anning calmed down, he asked Qing Glaze to bring a fire box and light a candle to turn the letter into ashes, Qing Glaze didn't know what Qing Tong said in the letter, and only then did he see that the girl came back with a very good complexion. But now it's solemn.
"Girl, be careful!" Look at the fire, the hand is about to burn, the girl has not come back to her senses, she hurriedly slapped Gu Anning's hand in a hurry, and the letter fell on it and burned directly to ashes.
Gu Anning opened her eyes and sat down again, if what Qingtong said was true, so the second lady had already known that she was a concubine Gu Anchu was a concubine, and since she knew it, it was not for other things to add her to the South Courtyard in the first place.
I unconsciously remembered that Qingzhu inquired about some things last time, and also heard about the premature birth of the second lady back then, which seemed to be related to the eldest lady, so the big room and the second room have been estranged.
But Gu Anning thought about it, the eldest lady didn't need to hurt the child in the second lady's womb at all, and the second room was born out of the concubine and had no chance to inherit the Gu family.
And the second lady gave birth to a child, Gu Youcheng is a man, how can he be safe?
I thought about it. The second lady's slippery tire back then was really related to the eldest lady, that is, for other reasons, but what is this reason?
It's no wonder that when the Jiang family came, the second lady was dissatisfied with her and reminded her for the first time not to enter the Jiang family's idea, and now Mrs. Yang's door-to-door proposal made the second lady cold to her.
"It's time for the girl to eat, let Qingyuan boil mung bean soup today, drink some in a while and then go to the school!" Qingzhu entered the house and called, Gu Anning came back to his senses, his forehead was full of fine sweat, Qingzhu saw it and hurriedly went to fetch clean water and came over to let her wash her face before eating.
The heat of the meal is just right, and it is not hot out of the pot and it will not be cold.
"Where's the green glaze?" Gu Anning saw her in the house just now, why did she disappear again. Qingzhu heard this and hurriedly said. "Qing glaze just went out, go to the big garden to pick some mint back, and wait for the girl to go to school in the afternoon to eat cold cakes, it has been hot recently. Yesterday, Qing Glaze talked about it. ”
Gu Anning nodded, but now he had no appetite, so he asked Qingzhu to fill a bowl of mung bean soup and drink it all and then went out.
The days passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, most of the moon passed.
Gu Anning went to ask for peace every morning, and the second lady was rarely happy when she saw her, maybe she didn't have a good face for her since Mrs. Yang came to propose marriage or when Jiang Yang came to the Gu family's Yangchun banquet.
As the days go by. Gu Anning also sighed unconsciously, and unconsciously saw Aunt Liu's shadow from the second lady.
On that day, Gu Anning had to let people send the books back to the Hu family every half a month, and today was also a half-moon day, but the Hu family came early, it was the third girl Hu who sent someone to send the Beiyan pear, I heard that it was the Beiyan country that was provided by the palace, and the old man Hu would let people buy two boats every year, but all those who were close to the Hu family were sent.
I came here today not only to deliver pears, but also a thick letter, seeing that it was someone from the Hu family, Gu Anning also saved Qing Glaze from having to run, so he asked people to send the books back.
Gu Anning reads books quickly, especially these days when he reads about the way to eat coarse grains, and most of the people who write these biographies are those who are picky about eating and not tricky.
I have read a lot of books, and there are only a few things that can be used, and when Jiang Yuan brings letters to the Gu family again, it will already be autumn.
"Miss Hu San is really polite, the pear people at this time said that it is precious!"
Expensive is expensive, but the Hu family has always been generous, and this kind of gift is also a favor, and ordinary things naturally can't be used, and no one gives gold and silver twice in three days, which can be regarded as a kind of business for the Hu family.
It can be seen from Miss Hu San that she didn't say anything when she went to borrow books on weekdays, and this was to send food and so on, but then again, Gu Anning didn't do nothing.
This is not to tell the business of the wall stone to Miss Hu San, fortunately, she has a doorway, and now the bead curtain hanging in this front room is made of wall stone, and the wall stone is cool and the emerald green is expensive and opaque.
Looking at the thick letters, thinking that it was also the profit of this half a month, Gu Anning asked Qing Glaze to take two silver taels to reward the errand girl, and moved the books out in twos and threes. (To be continued.) )
