Unexpectedly, the conversation between several of them was overheard by Tang Xiannan.

Guo Zhishi turned his head suddenly, and when he saw his daughter-in-law, his face immediately turned red.

Zhu Changxi was also annoyed, and originally thought of taking the water division, but the water division was stunned and was raised by the imperial court as a land soldier.

His heart still returned to Gu Zizhong's body.

Zizhong had just given birth, and he couldn't just mess around.

As soon as Zhu Changxi left, the other two people also left.

Gu Zizhong lay on the bed and slept for two days.

Zhu Changxi just waited beside her, not moving at all.

Gu Zizhong woke up and was thirsty and wanted to drink water.

Zhu Changxi hurriedly poured it for her, handed her a water cup, and reached out to touch her head: "Are you okay?"

Gu Zizhong felt weak and had no strength at all.

She sat up, and it took a long time for her to hold the glass.

Zhu Changxi stared at her: "Your cheeks are still very shriveled, and your eyes are not bright." ”

Gu Zizhong deliberately teased him: "My current physical condition is not very optimistic, so you have to be careful." If I have a problem, you can quickly call Dr. Cui here. ”

Zhu Changxi's hand began to tremble.

Outside, Aunt Cui came in and said with a smile: "Uncle, if there is really something wrong with the county lord's body bones, can you still sit here?"

Zhu Changxi was sweating profusely and his face was red.

Gu Zi looked at his anxious appearance, "haha" laughed all of a sudden, and almost squirted water out.

Aunt Cui smiled and said, "County Lord, what do you think you scared your uncle into?"

Gu Zi pursed her red lips heavily, feeling happy in her heart.

She also raised her eyes from time to time to squint at Brother Zishan to see what he looked like.

Zhu Changxi wiped his sweat, but smiled again, and just held back a sentence: "Hurry up and drink the water, I see that your lips are dry." ”

Gu Zi took a sip of water and raised his eyes to look at him from time to time.

Aunt Cui was beside the two of them, staring at them for a long time, and she couldn't hold it back, before she said, "Lord Shizi, Zhu Ziqin and Zhu Gongzi are here." Can't you see it?"

Zhu Changxi "chuckled" in his heart.

He thought about it for a moment, wondering whether to go out and meet people.

He also dodged Shizhong's eyes.

Gu Zizhong knew about him. Since he is not generous, she should be generous: "Don't hide it from me, you can see it if you want." Since people want to see you, you can't refute your face. ”

Zhu Ziqin wants to see Zhu Changxi, nothing more than a position and military power.

Since Zizhong said so, after he agreed, he got up and went out.

Gu Zizhong stared at Brother Zishan's back, chuckling in his heart.

Aunt Cui said in a low voice: "County Lord, the prince has gone to see a guest, you don't seem to be very happy." ”

Gu Zizhong sighed: "I'm just afraid that he will leave me." Forget it, Aunt Cui will bring me a basin of water, I want to wash up. ”

Dr. Cui said that after the county lord rested in bed for two days, he could go down to the ground and take a walk.

She lay down for many days, suffocating.

Aunt Cui brought her water, helped her wash up, and said, "County Lord, you just woke up today, so don't put on makeup, right?"

Gu Zizhong doesn't want to get that yet, troublesome.

She looked back at the little guy behind her, squeezed out a smile, and said, "He's sleeping soundly." ”

Aunt Cui saw that the county lord was happy, and also echoed: "Yes, people say that the little boy has white skin and big eyes, and he is exactly the same as the county lord." ”

Gu Zizhong said "um", rolled up his sleeves, and helped the little guy tuck the quilt.

Aunt Cui helped her out of bed.

Tang Xiannan came in from outside and talked to Gu Zizhong about Shantang again.

Gu Zizhong just remembered.

If it weren't for Sister Tang's reminder, she would have forgotten about it.

As soon as she thought of this, she subconsciously touched her pocket.

Tang Xiannan said: "County Lord, Shantang wrote you a thank you letter today. ”

Gu Zi relented to favor others, and did not reciprocate.

She just wants to have peace of mind.

Tang Xiannan said: "County Lord, but this year, the Marquis of Wuqing Mansion alone donated thousands of taels of silver." There are also prefects, prefects, counties, and donations from some local squires, and the silver has reached nearly five thousand taels. There are not many widows and widows in the good hall. They don't have much to eat every day, so they don't need much money. So the county lord, you have donated all your money, it's not worth it, right?"

Although Gu Zizhong still kept smiling, he was not very happy in his heart.

She didn't answer directly, just smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing, donate some money, this is an ancestral tradition." ”

Tang Xiannan said "oh" and said: "It's also good, now the people of Shantang have been gathered by the prefect to sew needles and threads and sew clothes for the soldiers of our Northern Expedition." Now there are few weapons, and the Ming army has fewer uniforms. ”

Gu Zizhong paused at this time and asked, "How do you know?"

Tang Xiannan pointed to the door: "The second son of Zhu outside said it." I also listened to them talk about this when I came over. ”

Gu Zizhong remembered that Marquis Wu Qingqing said in front of her a few days ago that they were short of money and couldn't donate anything.

Who knew that the Marquis of Wuqing's Mansion actually donated so much.

How can this old guy also tell lies?

She knocked on the side: "What about the eldest son? How is the eldest son of their family? How much did you donate?"

Tang Xiannan shook his head: "I don't know about this, but the people in their entire mansion donated more than 1,000 taels of silver, and they also opened a warehouse to release rice, relieving a lot of beggars." ”

Gu Zizhong seemed a little unhappy.

She was thinking crankily.

I don't know if Sister Tang is worth it, Gu Zizhong only feels that she has a hard time in her heart.

Because of Shantang, she also discussed it with Marquis Wu Qing.

On the one hand, Wu Qinghou said that their family had no money, but on the other hand, he donated money and food behind her back.

They have won people's hearts, and now they are broken.

Gu Zizhong hesitated for a while, but still smiled and said, "It's okay, people donate a lot, so let's follow others." ”

Tang Xiannan said: "Of course, now the entire Chengde is almost close to the capital, and the places in this area are basically given relief by the Marquis of Wuqing." To put it bluntly, everyone here has been taken in by Marquis Wu Qing. I've heard that the soldiers guarding the frontier this time are wearing clothes that are all sewn by these Shantang people. ”

So Gu Zi felt bad in his heart.

Tang Xiannan continued: "Especially after autumn, in winter, the Ming army needs cotton clothes." It was too close to the outside of the Guan, and the cotton clothes of the Ming army needed to be transported from here. And the people here are the ones who make cotton clothes. Therefore, when the time comes, Zhu Shizi's fate will be in the hands of this person. ”

It's not people here, it's people from the Marquis of Wuqing's mansion.

To put it more bluntly, it is Wu Qinghou!

Gu Zizhong felt a cold sweat on his back.
