Chapter 43: Pick-up
When the four aunts and the two came to Lanyuan, Gu Qinghe was staring at the red beans to take tonics.
Hongdou was poisoned this time and was in a coma for three whole days, although she escaped from death, her vitality was greatly damaged and her body was weak.
Dr. Zhou said that the body of red beans needs to be cultivated for a year and a half to get better.
Since then, Gu Qinghe has not allowed Hongdou to do anything, and the treatment given to Hongdou is the same as his own.
Hongdou was so guilty that she refused and refused again, but where could she say that Gu Qinghe could be moved.
Therefore, when Hongdou saw the fourth aunt and mother and daughter coming from the inner courtyard, she hurriedly swallowed all the tonic in one gulp, as if she had received amnesty, and said, "Miss, I'll bring you some tea and pastries." ”
"Go into the house and lie down for me. Gu Qinghe had a cold face, and then ordered the girl on the side to go down.
Red Bean didn't dare to say more, so she had to enter the house.
Gu Qinghe led the fourth aunt Gu Xianghe to sit down in the small pavilion: "The fourth mother came here today to have something to do?"
Since Gu Juntang's accident, the fourth aunt mother and daughter have rarely set foot in Orchid Garden, and after the eldest aunt was divorced a few days ago, this is the first time she has taken the initiative to come to her.
The fourth aunt smiled: "What's the matter, it's okay, I can't come to see you?"
Gu Qinghe smiled lightly: "Not really." Qinghe welcomes Siniang to sit at any time, but Siniang is suddenly not afraid of being affected by Qinghe, which makes Qinghe a little surprised. ”
Of course, the fourth aunt was worried, but compared to Xianghe's matter, this time she had to take the risk.
The fourth aunt knew that Gu Qinghe didn't like to beat around the bush, so she didn't say anything polite anymore, and said straight to the point: "Qinghe, what are you talking about, but I came today to discuss something." ”
"We did as you said, and it did make Xianghe attract the attention of the Third Highness, and most importantly, we also got the support of the master. But what should we do next to get the Third Highness to marry Xianghe as his wife?"
Gu Qinghe said, "Actually, as long as I have my father's help, the fourth sister will be able to marry into the Third Highness's Mansion sooner or later, but whether she is a wife or not, it is not the fourth sister's beauty and talent that can do it." ”
"I understand, too. Gu Xianghe lowered his head.
Gu Qinghe unceremoniously pointed out the facts: "What you lack now is the identity and bargaining chips that can become a wife." ”
The fourth aunt was embarrassed: "You also know that our status is low, I am a concubine, Xianghe is a concubine, and although my maiden family is an imperial businessman, the merchant can't get into the eye after all." ”
"So, we have to give the fourth sister another identity. ”
"What do you mean......" The fourth aunt was surprised.
"Net. Gu Qinghe looked at the fourth aunt meaningfully, "Dad has been in the court for so many years, and the relationship network is naturally not weak, if Dad uses these relationships to find a good stepfather or stepmother for the fourth sister, then the identity of the fourth sister will naturally be different." Then I took the opportunity to ask my father to straighten Siniang, and I think others will not dare to say anything. ”
The eyes of the fourth aunt and mother and daughter were bright, and in the current situation, this thing is feasible!
Xianghe's fierce rival is Xiao Qingyu, but Xiao Qingyu does not care about the Third Highness, Xiao Qingyu's father is the prime minister of the dynasty, but he is an old-fashioned person who is only loyal to the emperor, the emperor named Liu Ling as the crown prince, and he supports Liu Ling, which is why he is not willing to follow the Third Highness.
Then Xianghe's identity has become a concubine with a backer, so the possibility of becoming the wife of the Third Highness will naturally be greatly improved.
Although Gu Xianghe was happy in her heart, she was worried about another more important question: "Qinghe, when I saw you that day, His Royal Highness obviously still has a great interest in you, what if there is a **** who wants to accept you as his wife?"
Gu Qinghe shook his head and smiled: "Fourth sister, it seems that you are really in love with the Third Highness." ”
Gu Xianghe's face was serious: "I'll talk to you about business!"
"His Royal Highness wants to marry me, and my father is the first to disagree, and he will definitely stop him. ”
"Not necessarily, after all, you're still Daddy's daughter. Gu Xianghe disagreed with her opinion, "If His Royal Highness asks you by name, I think my father will no longer care about the death of the eldest brother, but will support you with all his might." ”
Gu Qinghe looked at her: "It seems that you still don't know our father." He can't control me, that's why he won't agree. ”
Gu Xianghe was silent, and after a while, he asked again: "But if you have a heart for the Third Highness............
"Fourth sister. Gu Qinghe suddenly cleared his voice coldly, "In the end, you still don't believe me." If we don't believe it, then there is no need for us to cooperate any further. ”
Gu Xianghe didn't want Gu Qinghe to suddenly show a cold attitude, and he was speechless for a while, and his face turned pale.
The fourth aunt pressed Xianghe's hand and smiled at Gu Qinghe: "Qinghe, don't you still understand Xianghe's thoughts, this is just her little daughter's mentality, not that she doesn't believe you, don't go to your heart." ”
"Qinghe, I'm sorry, the fourth sister shouldn't have said that. "Gu Xianghe can bend and stretch.
Gu Qinghe sighed lightly: "Fourth sister, I will remind you one last time." If it's the day you move into the harem, you'd better be careful not to be as calm as you are now. The harem is sinister, but it is not ten times more than ten times in this Gu mansion. ”
Gu Xianghe bit her lip tightly: "I understand." Since I had this mind, I have been mentally prepared. ”
Gu Qinghe didn't want to talk anymore, so he said: "Okay, you guys go back first, I'm tired, please forgive Qinghe for not sending it." ”
Gu Qinghe straightened up and left the small pavilion first, leaving the fourth aunt Gu Xianghe to look at each other in fear.
Gu Qinghe's methods, they have seen it, if they really anger her, God knows what the consequences will be.
The fourth aunt, mother and daughter came out of Lanyuan, and just as they wanted to go to Gu Manting to mention the matter of finding the backstage, they met Gu Yitang and the prince who had just come out of Gu Manting's study on the way.
Yesterday, Gu Yitang went to the prince's mansion, and the prince came to visit today, and as soon as it was over, he said that he would go to Lanyuan to find Qinghe to sit for a while.
The fourth aunt, Gu Xianghe, hurriedly saluted: "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"Excuse me. Liu Ling smiled brightly, and his dark eyes looked at Gu Xianghe, who was low-eyebrowed, "Miss Gu Si, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you doing today?"
Gu Xianghe didn't want the prince to remember him, so he was a little flattered for a while: "Thank you for your concern, His Royal Highness the Prince, Xianghe is very good." ”
"On the last trip to Lushan, Miss Gu Si's sword dance "Qingyuan Spring". "Snow" is really unforgettable, I wonder if Hongu will be lucky enough to see you again?"
Liu Ling's eyes were burning, and his words were full of admiration and appreciation, as well as the irrepressible tenderness.
Gu Xianghe was stared at by Liu Ling and didn't dare to raise her face, her cheeks were crimson, and she said: "Thank you His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your appreciation, if there is a chance, Xianghe is willing to dance again." ”
Liu Ling was very happy, nodded and smiled: "In this way, this palace has written it down." ”
Gu Yitang listened behind him, shaking his head again and again, crying and laughing.
When he arrived at Lanyuan, Gu Yitang told Qinghe about Liu Ling's jerky accosting of Gu Xianghe just now, and Gu Qinghe couldn't help laughing.
Liu Ling looked at the two brothers and sisters who were laughing from the side, and shouted angrily with a dark face: "Presumptuous! Are you making fun of Prince Ben like this? Be careful of your head!"
