Chapter 147: The Dust Settles
The rain that lasted for several days finally dissipated, the lightning and thunder of the previous days were like a hairpin, which broke through the heavy fog and clouds very sharply, and the pouring showers washed the sky spotlessly, this day, instead of the blue sky floating over the white clouds, a dazzling and infinite warmth of the sun went straight through the clouds, directly into the earth, making people feel the long-lost warmth.

Far away, the mother-in-law guarding outside the tourmaline courtyard saw a few people walking towards this side, the autumn came and fell, and the dead leaves that blew from nowhere fell to the ground, sometimes swirling and rolling, and falling again in the small puddle of water, with shallow ripples.
Gu Yanling was wearing a delicate Danbi gauze double skirt, holding an apricot white honeysuckle shawl on her wrist, and through the short wall, you could see the elegant scene in the tourmaline courtyard.
The girl walked to the gate of the courtyard dignified and steady, and the mothers-in-law who were guarding hurriedly stepped forward to salute, Gu Yanling glanced at it indifferently, then bowed slightly, and calmly and lightly pulled the shawl that had slipped down and walked in.
Passing through the hall and turning the corridor, the main house where Gu Yanjin lived stood in front of him, and Gu Yanling slowly walked down the stone steps.
The sunlight falls on the branches of the trees, casting specks of light on the lattice windows of the houses and the carved doors of the houses.
Walking over the small puddle, the tranquility in the courtyard was broken again, Gu Yanling walked to the table in front of the door and stood still, and a well-dressed girl hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully saluted Gu Yanling.
"Is the third girl okay? ”
The girl opened her mouth lightly, and the painting spring with her hands in front of her eyes covered her eyes when she heard the words, and then said slowly: "The three girls are no different from weekdays, they get up every day according to the point, sometimes they read books and play the piano, sometimes they are female celebrities, and they take a walk, although they can't go out of the yard, they can also pass the time." ”
Her sister is kind-hearted, and she can still be so calm so far, which makes people have to praise her.
Since the day my grandfather entered the palace, when he came back, he ordered the Suirong Courtyard and the Tourmaline Courtyard to be grounded together, and the old people in the courtyard were either sent to the Commandment Courtyard for interrogation or betrayed, so now the Suirong Courtyard and the Tourmaline Courtyard are all people personally selected by Gu Zhengde.
And the painting spring in front of him used to be served in Ningde Academy. It's called serving, but it's actually imprisonment.
The corners of Gu Yanling's lips, who squinted at the spring, were almost imperceptible, I don't know if her sister will be able to maintain this calmness after today.
The girl twisted her skirt with both hands dignifiedly, and then walked up with her back straight, Fang paused in front of the door, Jiang Zhu immediately stepped forward to raise the soft curtain, Libi lowered her head slightly and helped Gu Yanling walk in, and when the soft curtain fell, the figure of the master and servant was hidden behind the soft curtain.
Gu Yanling walked lightly to the inside, and the moment the soft curtain was opened again, Gu Yanling walked in indifferently.
At this time, the interior of the house is the same as before, and the furnishings are delicate and elegant, which shows that a lot of thought has been put into it. The warmth of the earth dragon is wrapped in a faint fragrance, a girl wearing a purple and blue gauze embroidered double skirt is sitting in front of the dressing table, the back is gentle and slender, the slender right hand gently poked into the hair, extremely elegant embellished with a gem-inlaid tourmaline hairpin, and then lightly fell the hand, slightly sideways, the sunlight from the lattice window fell on the girl's delicate side face, glowing with a soft light like warm jade.
"Eldest sister, look at me, I look good in this dress. ”
The girl's pure and gentle words seemed to pull people to the past, as if everything was not as full of calculations and intrigue as it was in front of them.
The corners of Gu Yanling's lips floated slightly with a doting smile, and he walked over indifferently step by step, and the moment he approached the dressing table, Gu Yanjin, who was sitting there, suddenly turned around and stood up, looking at himself with a smile, and really responded to the sentence that the peach blossoms on the human face were red.
At this moment, she realized that Gu Yanjin in front of her was almost as tall as herself, and she had already become a slim girl, the same face that she hated before she died in her previous life.
"The third sister inherited the good looks of the second uncle and the second aunt, which is the Jingchai cloth skirt, which is also the national color. ”
It's just a pity that under such a beautiful and pure and immaculate appearance, there is such a vicious and calculating heart.
"I thought that the people in the yard had changed, and my sister would not be used to it, but I didn't expect that my sister was very comfortable. ”
Gu Yanling leisurely picked up a red sandalwood inlaid Western glass painting back begonia-style wooden handle mirror on the dressing table, and played with the apricot tassel at the end of the handle as if he was bored, and when he said the end, he raised his eyes charmingly.
Gu Yanjin snorted lightly when he heard this, then sat down indifferently, and said quite calmly: "I thought that now that the eldest uncle, eldest aunt and Brother Yu are in danger, if you want to say that the most uncomfortable person should be my sister, why am I uncomfortable?"
"Bang-"
The delicately crafted mirror was casually put back on the table by Gu Yanling, and then the girl found the beauty couch under the window and sat down, and said without hurrying: "Since this is the case, then I will share a good news with my sister, and make my sister more comfortable and happy." ”
Hearing this, Gu Yanjin couldn't help frowning slightly, but only for a moment, he calmly covered it again, and turned his head very proudly, without the slightest crampedness, but full of purity and elegance.
Gu Yanling sneered in his heart, and then the corners of his lips were slightly hooked.
"My grandfather personally asked the Holy Lord for grace, and my second uncle was already elevated. ”
When Gu Yanjin heard this, there was a strange light in his eyes, and the next moment he heard the girl opposite say slowly: "Second Uncle has gone to Lingnan Road yesterday to prepare for the post of prefect of Yingzhou. ”
Gu Yanjin's eyes shook suddenly, she knew very well that the prefect's current official position was indeed promoted compared to Gu Jingzhao's, but what kind of place was Lingnan Dao? A wilderness where birds and animals do not give birth and people can't even be kept! Even with that miasma, people can be killed, Gu Jingzhao is going, not to mention that the chance of returning to Beijing is slim, even whether he can come back alive is unknown. It is placed in today's Daxing officialdom, which is the place of distribution, and even Liaodong, where the war is not extinguished, is much better than that Lingnan Road.
Without her father's support, what would she do?
Seeing that Gu Yanjin's calm mask was gradually shattering, Gu Yanling said more leisurely: "It's a pity that before leaving, even Degui didn't want to follow, so he only sent two boys from the outer courtyard to accompany the second uncle all the way." I don't know if I will go here, and whether I will have a chance to see the second uncle come back again. ”
As she spoke, the girl raised her head and smiled gently.
"By the way, the second aunt has been sent to the family nunnery on Qingfeng Mountain yesterday, presumably the Li family has been there alone for so long, and the second aunt has gone, so she can have a companion. (Note: Li refers to the nurse of Brother Yu'er.) )
Gu Yanjin almost stood up in shock, his hands gradually clenched, and the little pretended composure had gradually disintegrated.
"But unfortunately, Li fell ill a month ago, and now he has become a delirious waste, even if he talks to his second aunt, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be a quiet listener. ”
"You did it!"
Gu Yanjin bit out the words almost word by word, and the noncommittal appearance of the girl in front of her made her more sure of her thoughts.
It seems that from the very beginning, Gu Yanling was ready to deal with their second room, and even calculated that his mother would be sent to the family nunnery by his grandfather to be punished, and he actually attacked the Li family.
Once the mother went to Qingfeng Mountain, except for a deaf and dumb old woman who delivered food in the nunnery, she was a delirious madman, and if she was with such a person every day, even if she didn't die, she would only be driven crazy alive.
In order to deal with them, Gu Yanling did spare no effort.
"And. ”
Just when Gu Yanjin was a few pounds of manic, the girl's calm voice sounded again. Gu Yanjin raised her eyes to look over, and the girl's dignified and elegant smile fell on her angry eyes, which was particularly dazzling.
"I'm afraid that today is the last time I come to see my sister, my grandmother has ordered, and today I will send you to our Gu family's farm to recuperate, and the next time our sisters meet, I'm afraid it will be time for you to get married." ”
As the words fell, the sound of the beads falling to the ground suddenly came and went, Gu Yanling raised his eyes indifferently, and saw that Gu Yanjin's left hand was clenched with strength, and he was stuck on the dressing table, with Yu Yao's anger intensifying in his eyes, and a broken pearl hand was lying alone on the dressing table, and the side of the broken line was on the edge of the dressing table, and it was scattered one by one.
A crystal bead rolled down to Gu Yanling's feet, Gu Yanling bent down to pick it up with a chuckle, and the bead shone brightly through the sun.
Gu Yanling rubbed it gently, but it was a pity that such a round and good bead.
"Whew-"
Mocking laughter erupted, and the tumbling beads stagnated, leaving no sound.
When Gu Yanling looked up, he saw that Gu Yanjin had already stood up arrogantly, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face little by little.
"So what? Even so, the people in your big house are going to die, Gu Yanling-"
The girl mockingly called out her name, and the tricky smile on the corner of her lips was even more dazzling, as if sighing, but she couldn't hide her happiness and said: "You are destined to be a lonely person, a disaster star who kills all your relatives by killing your father and mother, as long as the people in your big house are dead, who dares to gamble their lives to marry you, your fate is not much better than mine." ”
Speaking of this, Gu Yanjin walked over step by step, like a madman, and his laughter became more and more treacherous, and then he suddenly suppressed his voice to the point that only the two of them could hear, and said very quietly: "As long as your life is ruined, I will be happy, and I don't care about anything else." ”
