Chapter 625: Whoever Wins and Who Loses
King Ning gritted his teeth and picked up the cold steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth.
The steamed bun was as hard as a stone, but he had to eat it, and as long as he survived, he would ascend to that position.
The five steamed buns were all down, King Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief, he leaned against the corner, a sneer appeared on his face, Pei Qitang definitely wanted to win the help of the Queen Mother through Gu Langhua, but he didn't know that the Queen Mother would only bring him endless trouble.
When the first emperor was there, the queen mother did have some manpower in her hands, but all these years have been consumed by the current emperor, not only are those people not holding important positions, but also the situation is not very good.
So every year, when the Queen Mother took out something from her private treasury to reward those people, the emperor was watching jokes while letting people be on guard, because many of them really had to rely on the Queen Mother's reward to celebrate the New Year.
The last time he went to Guangnan, he even saw that the once majestic descendants of the Duke of Ji Guo were wearing patched clothes, these were all heroes of Daqi and had made great achievements, but now they were just idlers wandering on the streets.
What else is the use of such an official? really took these from the Queen Mother, but he was just bound. If the Queen Mother was really useful, he would have told the Queen Mother the truth a long time ago and held Cining Palace in the palm of his hand, how could he wait for Gu Langhua to pick up this bargain.
The Guangnan West Road that the Gu family and Pei Qitang fancy is not as good as Jiangsu and Zhejiang, not only is it not valued by the imperial court, but it is also a natural penal colony, insects and ants are overgrown, and the plague is rampant, not to mention the financial resources of the Gu family and the Pei family in that place, even if there are ten Gu families, they will inevitably be swallowed in one bite.
It is really fearless for those who don't know, and the Gu family dares to treat the miasma with a hundred herbs, and there will inevitably be no return.
He just watched how Pei Qitang and the Gu family would die there.
……
Langhua slept very peacefully, dreaming that when she was a child, she was running in the garden to pick flowers, and her grandmother was following behind, for fear that she would fall, and finally she was planted in the flowers, but she didn't feel the pain and was picked up by the nurse.
Grandmother hurriedly stepped forward to check on her, she stretched out her hand to get into her grandmother's arms and cry, but when she looked up, she found that her grandmother had become Hang.
She was not surprised, but shouted: "Mother, mother......"
Mother.
Langhua almost really shouted, and slowly opened his eyes.
"What did you dream about?"
The room was very warm, Pei Qitang looked at her sideways, Langhua looked at the red curtain, and the smile in Pei Qitang's eyes remembered that yesterday was the day she got married.
"Nothing? It's just when I was a child," Langhua said to find the hourglass, "what time is it?" It's time to get up and say goodbye. ”
"Don't worry, it's still early," Pei Qitang said, "The tea ceremony will start at the end of the hour, and it is only the end of the hour." ”
Langhua had already sat up and lifted the quilt: "Did you say something to your family, how can you only serve tea at the end of the hour?" She had heard her grandmother say that the new daughter-in-law would get up and freshen up at the beginning of the day, and then go to the big kitchen to boil water and make tea by herself, and wait outside the elders' door early, but now it is too late for her, and Xiao's mother and Ah Qiong don't call her a word.
"Arjun," Langhua shouted, "bring me clothes." ”
Pei Qitang looked at Langhua's serious expression: "It's not what I said, it was arranged by Mrs., I should be afraid that I would be drunk and not be able to get up so early." ”
Pei Qitang leaned leisurely on the head of the bed as he spoke, his shirt loosely revealing a large part of his chest, and looked at her for a long time.
Langhua couldn't help but remember that it was she who pulled Pei Qitang's dirty clothes into this appearance, although she went to see the cinnabar mole, but Pei Qitang didn't know, and then recalled the actions of the two people last night, it seemed that she was not disgusted, let alone tried her best to refuse.
Although it was a little late to be ashamed, she just couldn't control her blush.
Arjun called water, Langhua went to freshen up, Pei Qitang also got up while this kung fu, and when Langhua was dressing, he leaned on the soft couch to read, Langhua only needed to raise his eyes and look in the mirror, he could see Pei Qitang's figure.
Where he was reading, he was clearly peeking at her grooming.
What does it mean for a woman to make up, although she thinks so, there is still a sweetness welling up from her heart.
Finally dressed, Langhua looked at the hourglass, just in the middle of the hour, Xiao's mother had already sent Arjun to deliver a letter to Mrs. Pei in advance, and the relatives of the Pei family were waiting to see her in the hall.
Langhua thinks this is also a very interesting thing, everyone gets up early, just to see whether a new daughter-in-law is round or flat, she doesn't need to have too much preparation, as long as the etiquette is thoughtful, accompany everyone to laugh, and everyone is happy.
When most of them left, she had to go and tell Mrs. Pei about the Pei family's ancestral home on Guangnan West Road, which was what she was most interested in.
"Let's go!" Langhua followed Pei Qitang forward, Pei Qitang walked very slowly, and kept cooperating with her footsteps, the two of them were side by side, Langhua found that Pei Qitang was extraordinarily tall, and her size was only at the height of his shoulders, could she grow for another seven or eight years? Will it reach his jaw when the time comes, he is a few years older than her, and when he is old, he will definitely be like the dried persimmon, wrinkle it, wrinkle it, at that time, the distance may be reduced a few points, thinking of this, Langhua couldn't help laughing.
Compared with Langhua's joy, Grandma Pei didn't sleep well all night, and got up in the morning and applied a thick layer of powder, so as not to make people look haggard, last night Mrs. Pei called Bian's mother to reprimand, like a slap in her face, I didn't expect Mrs. to defend Gu's ......
Langhua stepped forward to greet Mrs. Pei first, and then served tea according to the rules, and recognized all the relatives again.
Grandma Pei looked over and saw that Langhua's face was ruddy and bright, her eyes were translucent, and she looked very energetic, obviously she had a very comfortable night at Pei's house.
Naturally, she was comfortable, she heard that the fourth child promised the Gu family that she would not have a round house until the Gu family came to the small day or after the meeting, and the entire Pei family would hold the Gu family up.
In fact, the Gu family is just a woman from a small family, with a caravan of medicinal materials in her hands, and she can just say a few words in front of the Queen Mother.
The Gu family may not know that the first reward sent by the Queen Mother to Guangnan West Road will inevitably be sent to the Zhou family.
If the Pei family really wants to return to Guangnan West Road, they should discuss it with the Zhou family, rather than let the Gu family toss.
"Sister-in-law," Grandma Pei said in a low voice, "What are you thinking?" The banquet will be held in a while, so we will take everyone to the flower hall first, and let the four brothers and sisters accompany their grandmother, father and mother to talk together. ”
"Okay." Although Grandma Pei should come down, her eyes involuntarily aimed towards Langhua.
What will the Gu family say to the elders? She shouldn't really be leaving right now.
