Chapter 189: Daughter-in-law (2)
Wu knew in his heart that Mrs. Tai had never looked down on her. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Of the three daughters-in-law, the most important thing for Mrs. Tai is, of course, the Shen family. Among the two daughters-in-law, the tame and obedient Fang is more in line with Mrs. Tai's mind than her.
Mrs. Tai rarely took the initiative to ask her to go to Zhenghetang on weekdays, but now that her illness has just improved, she called her over, there must be something important.
Wu's heartbeat increased inexplicably.
Gu Guanhua urged softly: "Mother, I'll accompany you to Zhenghetang now! ”
Wu Shi calmly said: "I can go over alone, you don't have to go." ”
"I'm also thinking about my grandmother's body, so let's go with my mother to see my grandmother!" Gu Guanhua said softly and persistently.
It's better to behave in front of Mrs. Tai more. Let Mrs. Tai see that Gu Wanning is not the only filial and considerate granddaughter.
Wu quickly changed his mind and nodded in response. Just as he was about to get up and leave, Gu Guanhua said again: "The eldest brother and the second brother are busy studying, so it's just a matter if you don't call them." Let's bring the third sister with you!"
Wu glanced at Gu Guanhua, and said angrily: "You girl, I really don't know who this soft-hearted character looks like." Don't forget Sister Min in everything you do. ”
Gu Guanmin was born from the concubine's room, and the Wu family never wanted to see this concubine. Gu Guanhua has the demeanor of an eldest sister and takes good care of Gu Guanmin.
Gu Guanhua was silent, smiling and letting the Wu family fall.
Wu quickly lost his temper, sent someone to call Gu Guanmin, and went to Zhenghe Hall together.
……
After the grandson left, Mrs. Tai slept for a whole afternoon.
I'm in a good mood and I'm in much better spirits than before. Mrs. Tai instructed the two maids to sit up with her, drank the decoction, swept her eyes, and asked casually, "Where is Sister Ning?"
These days, Gu Guanning has been guarding the side of the bed every step of the way. Mrs. Tai was also accustomed to seeing her as soon as she opened her eyes.
Zi Yan replied with a smile: "The second lady sent Linglong to deliver the letter before, saying that she had not rested for many days, and she wanted to go back to Yiliu Courtyard to bathe and change clothes, rest for one night, and come back tomorrow to accompany Mrs. Tai." ”
Come back tomorrow?
Mrs. Tai didn't know what to think, and suddenly laughed.
This girl is obviously afraid of her questioning!
Another maid walked in and reported: "Mrs. Tai, the eldest lady is here with the eldest lady and the third lady." ”
Mrs. Tai said, "Let the three of them come in!"
Soon, the Wu family led Gu Guanhua and Gu Guanmin sisters in. I asked Ann first, and then asked earnestly, "Is my mother-in-law feeling better today?"
Mrs. Tai pulled the corners of her lips self-deprecatingly: "I have already stepped into the coffin, God refused to accept it, and put me back." Now that I can drink the decoction and medicine, I can barely eat the food, and it seems that I can't die. ”
Wu Shi hurriedly smiled: "Mother-in-law, this is a great blessing, after this hurdle, you can live to at least a hundred years old." ”
Mrs. Tai smiled faintly: "Life is rare for seventy years. I've lived to be in my fifties, which is enough for my book. I can't think about it at the age of 100, as long as I can survive until the children grow up, I can close my eyes with peace of mind. ”
Gu Guanhua's voice was soft, and his eyes were full of sincere concern: "Grandmother, don't say that. We all hope that you will be healthy and live a long life!"
Mrs. Tai has a limited affection for Wu's eldest daughter-in-law, but she likes Gu Guanhua, the eldest granddaughter of the concubine. Hearing this, he smiled at Gu Guanhua: "Good boy, you are filial, and your grandmother knows it." ”
After a pause, he looked at the Wu family again: "Brother Xing'er is also sixteen this year." It's also time to start a family. Do you have a plan in mind?"
It turned out to be a family affair for Gu Jinxing.
Wu immediately cheered up and said, "Don't hide it from my mother-in-law, I do have a suitable candidate in my heart." ”
"Sister Xiang is my mother-in-law's niece, she has good looks and conduct, she has been raised by my side for a few years, and she is quite familiar with Jinxing. It is also common for aunts and cousins to marry. I was thinking about discussing it with my mother-in-law, and if my mother-in-law agreed, I would go back to Wu's house and talk to my sister-in-law. ”
Wu's father used to be a waiter in the Ministry of Industry and was a serious Sanpin official. As the daughter of the Wu family, the Wu family married Gu Song, the eldest son of the Dingbei Hou Mansion, and was also a good match.
It's a pity that Wu Shilang was found to be greedy and derelict in office, and Emperor Yuanyou was angry and took Wu Shilang's official position. The Wu family also fell because of this.
Wu's elder brother was mediocre, and the family spent a lot of money to get him a five-grade official position. Now I have received an idle errand.
In order to find a good future for his daughter, Wu's brother and sister-in-law cheekily sent Wu Lianxiang to Wu's side, obviously under the guise of kissing and kissing.
Wu is quite partial to his niece, so he also secretly moved this thought. Anyway, the high-ranking family marries a low-door daughter-in-law, and the eldest grandson of the Dingbei Hou Mansion marries the granddaughter of the Wu family, which is barely reasonable.
Since Wu Shi said this plan, of course, he had already calculated.
My brother and sister-in-law can't wait to marry the Gu family, as long as she opens her mouth, there is absolutely no reason to refuse. As for Mrs. Tai, how can she have the leisure to ask about the relatives of the eldest grandson, she will definitely nod her head and agree.
This time, Wu was wrong.
Mrs. Tai not only did not nod, but frowned and asked: "Brother Xing'er is the eldest grandson of our Gu family, how can family affairs be so casual?" Sister Xiang has lived in our Hou Mansion for a few years, and I also know her temperament very well. Even if she is your niece, I will not praise her for being outstanding with a clear conscience. ”
"You dispel this idea as soon as possible, and choose another good family for Brother Xing'er. ”
Wu: "......"
Mrs. Tai's face sank, and Wu was not angry but happy.
Listening to this tone, Mrs. Tai was clearly quite concerned about Gu Jinxing's family affairs.
What does this mean?
All kinds of thoughts quickly turned in Wu's mind, and he said with a smiling face: "What my mother-in-law taught me is that my daughter-in-law didn't think about it enough. Jin Xing is the grandson of the Gu family, and his wife will also be the granddaughter of the Gu family in the future. The family background must match the Gu family, and the virtue and appearance must also be outstanding. ”
Wu's thoughts, Mrs. Tai saw clearly.
When she said this, she was obviously tentative.
The second room has broken off the bloodline, and in the future, this title will have to fall in the long room. Although Gu Jinxing has no great talent, he has a good temperament and acts calmly, and it is not difficult to keep the family business for a few years.
Gu Guanhua is thoughtful, gentle and graceful. Gu Guanmin is not outstanding, but he is better than being docile and obedient. Gu Jinzhi is also a sensible and obedient person.
The only thing that dissatisfied Mrs. Tai in the long room was the Wu family.
However, the young and the old are in order. Now the title is inherited by Gu Song, and the Wu family also has the order of Mrs. Hou. In the future, this inner house will have to be slowly handed over to the Wu family.
