Chapter 103: Visiting the He Family
Looking at Ji Tang's departing back, Gu Xiangyi was a little stunned for a while, and stopped in a daze.
He was still so straight and straight, if he had changed, he was probably much thinner, and his cotton robe was empty on his body.
Sun Xiaohui poured tea without caring about Xiangyi, and took it to her to take a closer look at the account book of recent days.
Gu Xiangyi said: "When they rest for two days, let them help you, Mother Ye is careful, and Yun Ju is also a good hand at taking care of things." ”
"I know that the man you choose will not be bad. Sun Xiaohui said.
After a while, Gu Xiangyi closed the book and said, "When I deliver goods to Jijia Academy in the future, pick some good ones, don't use old goods." ”
She didn't know how to continue to help Ji Tang, but the love she had been with for many years was there, and she didn't do anything and watched the Ji family become more and more depressed, she couldn't do it.
Except for Fu Zhirong, Gu Xiangyi felt that it was time to take a break.
Winter came, and the streets were gradually depressed, so she walked quietly with a pomegranate, suddenly stopped, and looked up at the plaque on the house next to her.
"Girl, this is the He family, the He girl who came to our house last time is from this family. ”
There is no need to say pomegranate, Gu Xiangyi knows.
I don't know what happened to Helan Xi's face.
The little maid saw that she was wearing silk and satin, and at first glance, she was a beautiful girl, so she didn't dare to stop her again, and hurriedly notified the lady in charge.
Mrs. He gave birth to a daughter, the eldest girl of the He family, He Lanping, in addition to the second girl He Lanxi and the third girl He Lanyu. He Lanyu was born to a concubine, because the concubine was particularly favored at home, even the wife of the He family was a little jealous, so He Lanyu was like a fish in water at home, and she bullied Helan Xi everywhere.
Hearing that there was a lady looking for her outside the door, He Lanping asked, "Mother, the little girl said that she was the sixth girl of the Earl's Mansion last time, what can I do!"
went to Zhongyibo's mansion, and when she came back, the dead girl's face gradually improved, and He Lanping was almost not angry.
He Lanyu also heard about this, hurried over, and happened to meet Gu Xiangyi, who had just entered the door.
"You are the sixth girl of the Gu family, right?" Helan Yu smiled very casually, stepped forward affectionately, gestured to take Gu Xiangyi's hand, and said: "I am the third girl in the family, I heard the second sister mention you before, if you are really more beautiful than flowers, I have always wanted to see you, the noble lady of the high family is really different from me." ”
He took the initiative to show favor and belittled himself between words, what is Helan Yu doing?
Gu Xiangyi didn't bother to look at her.
The child born by the concubine has been spoiled since he was a child, and he knows that he pretends to be pitiful, and has no respect for the girl in the Earl's Court, and even started to move his hands when he first met, wanting to climb the high branches?
After the incident of the He family, Gu Xiangyi inquired, and she had heard of this third girl.
The eldest girl Helan Ping is not right, the third girl Helan Yu is mediocre and incompetent, one is not virtuous, the other is talentless, and Helan Xi has the strengths of the two and the shortcomings of the two.
Dodging her outstretched hand, Gu Xiangyi said very uncomfortably: "I'm here to find your second sister." ”
"Okay, I'm going to the second sister's place, I'll take you there?" said that, she was going to take Gu Xiangyi's hand again.
"I'm not used to being too close to people, and we don't know each other. Gu Xiangyi frowned at her and said bluntly: "People who are not familiar with me, I am too lazy to deal with them." ”
In a simple sentence, He Lanyu's face was flushed, and she looked at her in disbelief, and her eyes became wet in an instant.
It seems that in this family, it is common to cry and sell miserably.
Mrs. He personally came out to greet her, and He Lanping followed, the two of them were dressed luxuriously, but they were nothing compared to Gu Xiangyi's dress. After all, Master He is just an official position of a waiter, the official position is neither high nor low, and it is not as good as the Zhongyi Uncle's Mansion, and the silver category is even more different, and it is normal for the wife and daughter in the family to dress poorly.
Usually, He Lanping still thinks that she is dressed well, at least much better than the second sister, but when she saw the real noble girl today, she realized that she was too shabby.
The sixth girl of the Gu family had green eyebrows, a pair of bright phoenix eyes, and she was also exquisitely dressed, standing motionless in the courtyard, as if comparing the colors of the garden.
"I don't know that the six girls came to be a guest, and they missed the welcome, so please don't be surprised by the six girls!" Mrs. He came back to her senses and said to Gu Xiangyi.
"It was me who disturbed me abruptly, and I hope it didn't bother Madame. ”
Mrs. He was happy to be said by this sentence.
Who is it? It was the count's daughter, who called her such a small character Madame, and spoke thoughtfully and politely, and in just a few words lifted her to the sky.
"Don't bother, don't bother. Mrs. He covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "This is my daughter, the eldest daughter of our He family, I have heard about the six girls for a long time, and I told me every day that I want to be friends with you, I dislike that she has not seen anything in the world, and I did not take her to the Bofu to disturb, I heard that the six girls are my friends of Lan Xi, and my Lan Ping is the eldest sister of Lan Xi, and the relationship between the two is very good." ”
She chattered endlessly: "I don't know why the sixth girl came today? If you look for Lan Xi, it will be really unfortunate, she is not here, why don't you let Lan Ping accompany the six girls around?"
Helan Yu on the side saw her mother-in-law's style, and felt sick to her stomach in her heart, so she couldn't help but poke: "I saw the second sister just now, she had a cough, and the maid Sumei took warm water for her, why did my mother say that she was not there at this time?"
The lie was exposed in person, Mrs. He's face almost didn't tighten, and after glaring at He Lanyu secretly, she said with a smile: "Yes, it turns out that Sister Xi'er has already returned? ”
He Lanyu said again: "No, I didn't hear that the second sister went out today." ”
"Is your second sister still going to give you instructions when she goes out?" He Lanping bit a mouthful of silver teeth, stepped forward and took He Lanyu's hand, pinched her fiercely, and motioned her to shut her mouth.
Gu Xiangyi, who was on the other side, looked at the dog-eat-dog scene with an expressionless face, and said lightly: "Since Lan Xi is here, I want to meet him, and lead the way." ”
The He family can't afford to mess with the Zhongyi Uncle's Mansion, and the He family's wife knows that the official is in the ascending period of his career at this time, and Nu Zhuli is likely to be promoted next year, so he can't make enemies with the Zhongyi Uncle's Mansion at this time. Seeing that she couldn't sell her daughter, she also dispelled that idea and personally led Gu Xiangyi to Helan Xi's yard.
The shadows of the trees are scattered, the courtyard where He Lanxi lives is as remote as He Yinju, and a small courtyard in the dense forest comes into view, and Mrs. He also smiled and said, "Lan Xi, this child likes to be quiet, and she doesn't like to arrange other yards for her." ’
