Chapter 2 The Main House
Aunt Liu took Gu Anning into the room, and listened to Aunt Chen and Mrs. laughing, Gu Anning's father is the eldest son of the Gu family, there are four or five aunts alone, they have two in this room, they are the eighth girl and the second young master, Gu Anning is ranked ninth, the eldest concubine girl married three years ago, and entered the main courtyard two years before the marriage, two years before the wife, when she got married, it was also a scenery, although the dowry was not like the concubine, but it was not bad.
I met Aunt Chen today, but I didn't see other aunts, in addition to her, there are five girls and seven girls, the fifth girl is Aunt Chen's concubine and is two years older than Gu Anning, and there are three young masters who are the same mother as the five girls, and now they are allowed by their father to go out to manage the shop.
There is also a second sister-in-law, the second young master is a concubine, this sister-in-law is now pregnant, and she looks at Gu Anning from time to time when she sits under her wife.
"An Ning has seen her mother and Aunt Chen. After saying that, he saluted, and looked at the fifth girl and the seventh girl, and the second sister-in-law Rong. "I've seen the second sister-in-law, the fifth sister, and the seventh sister. ”
The standard of etiquette, before the hands intersected, the legs were slightly bent, but the back was straight, the eldest lady hadn't looked at her for more than two years, and couldn't help beckoning to her, the maid Hongling next to her handed over a brocade box, and as soon as Gu Anning arrived in front of her, she took out the silver bracelet in the box and put it on her wrist.
looked at her sleeve and couldn't pull it down, and frowned unconsciously. "Why haven't you seen your mother for a long time, but when you come to your mother today, you are dressed like this?"
How could the eldest lady not know about this matter, although the ninth girl still had to call her mother, she was only a person from Beiyuan, and she didn't need to take care of what she shouldn't.
Today, it is unknown whether the Nine Girls deliberate or how.
The silver bracelet on Gu Anning's wrist also weighed two, three, and two, and the eldest lady was generous, and when she heard this, she pursed her lips. "What my mother said, Gu Anning didn't understand. ”
"Madame is talking about the clothes of the nine girls, it's all a moon, and the clothes are all short, and they can't even cover their wrists. "Hongling is a good pleaser, and he said it with a few words.
It was only when he said this that the girls and aunts looked at it.
"Madame gave you a bracelet, why don't you hurry up and thank Madame. Aunt Liu saw Hongling's words, glared at her, and then said Gu Anning, Gu Anning seemed to remember, so she said to the eldest lady. "Thank you, Mother. ”
"The wax moon has also passed, and it seems that the New Year is approaching, and look at your clothes. "Let's talk about it, and say to Hongling. "Hongling, you go to the treasury and give an explanation, make a four-color jacket for the nine girls, four-color inside, another, embroidered shoes, six kinds of flowers, and the outer cloak is also made of two pretty colors. ”
Hongling answered, and went out of the interior to the warehouse to explain.
This is also the end of this year's winter clothes, and the cloak was sent to the other courtyard in previous years, but this time the two made up for it, and the eldest lady didn't ask why, and I didn't want to pursue the matter.
Even so, Gu Anning didn't even speak, that's what she wanted, even if Aunt Liu was a little angry, she didn't say anything when she saw that Mrs. didn't speak.
"The ninth girl is also twelve this year, it's time to say goodbye!" Aunt Chen sneered, the fifth girl will be in time for next year, and she entered the main courtyard two years ago, and her food and clothing are the same as those of her grandmother.
Aunt Chen's heart is most gratified by this.
Aunt Chen's two births have entered the main courtyard, the third child has a future, these five girls are also pleasing in front of the eldest lady, and besides, Aunt Chen's maiden family is also very good, yes, in front of the eldest lady is very faced.
When the eldest lady heard this, she couldn't help but smile and said to Gu Anning. "I called you here today, also for this kissing matter, someone came to the door on the 20th, you have been cultivating for a few days, you can't put on a sick face to show others. ”
After saying this, Aunt Liu coughed, and the eldest lady glanced at her, but she didn't open her mouth to continue.
There was no words in the back, the room was quiet, Gu Anning couldn't help but squeeze her palms, and the eldest lady didn't speak, so wouldn't she be able to enter the main courtyard.
She hadn't thought about it earlier, after all, her aunt had never courted her in front of the eldest lady, but when her aunt was a little in the limelight, she put on a face.
She still remembers how her marriage came about in the previous life, and it was also because she didn't enter the main room, and the marriage was abandoned, and the marriage that her aunt had planned for her herself, but how could she have thought that she was not the main room, let alone the concubine's room, but the concubine's room.
Thinking of the hardships he had suffered in his previous life, Gu Anning frowned, and then stretched out and said. "Gu Anning but with his mother's arrangement, keep in mind what his mother said, he will have a good life. ”
This is not bad, the eldest lady heard it, and the displeasure of Gu Anning not speaking also dissipated, and said. "It's not too early, just do whatever you have to do, An Ning stays to eat with your two sisters, and you will have to return for a few days in the future." ”
With the words of the eldest lady, the stone in Gu Anning's heart also fell, Aunt Liu was not happy, the eldest lady left someone, how could she have the ability to speak, so she had to go back first.
It will still be in the morning, and it will be a long time before noon, the eldest lady went to the account room first, and the eighth girl looked at Gu Anning and couldn't help but pout. "Look at you sick, I thought you wouldn't be able to leave North Park in your life!"
The eighth girl is a concubine, born on the same day, the same month, and the same year as Gu Anning, and this meeting is estranged.
If you can't get out of the North Park for a lifetime, isn't that a curse to death, Qingzhu exhaled a little when he was listening, and Gu Anning smiled slightly. "Thank you for the care of the eighth sister, it is peaceful and unhindered, my body and bones are much better, and now I can go to the main courtyard to walk. ”
It was a bad sentence, and I didn't know if Gu Anning really didn't understand or fake, and the eighth girl turned her face away from it unhappily.
Although the fifth girl is a concubine, she has also been taught by the eldest lady for two years, and whether she is sitting or moving, she looks like a beautiful lady, and she is very calm.
"What the eighth sister said, carefully Mother listened to it and wanted to punish you, and she was full of joy at the end of the year, so be careful to say more words. The fifth girl said and glanced at Gu Anning again, and together, the maid next to her took a cloak and put it on for her. "If the ninth sister is free, go up to my house to sit, it just so happens that last time my father brought back a few things from Nanwai, and I kept them, so you didn't like to pick them up. ”
The fifth girl is over 14 this year, and she has to get married after the beginning of the spring.
Rong listened to what the fifth girl said, and he didn't realize it. "Ninth sister, you just go with the fifth sister, in my house, your second brother also brought back some supplements, I went back to count and brought them, you go back and take them back to make up for them. ”
The eldest lady's words can make people embarrassed, Gu Anning always wondered why the aunt never flattered the eldest lady in front of the eldest lady, and loved to do it, if she was slightly soft, she would not end up with no one in the future.
"Thank you to the fifth sister and the second sister-in-law. ”
"Then let's go!" The five girls took the maid to go out first, and as soon as they stepped inside, they were subjected to the cold wind blowing outside, and the cold people's necks were eager to shrink.
Gu Anning came out with it, and saw that the fifth girl raised her head even if it was cold, but she couldn't stand the cold, and her neck and shoulders shrank as soon as she came out.
