Chapter 101: Breaking a promise

It is said that Gu Jiaoxiang followed Qingzhu to Xuefeng Courtyard, and before they arrived at Zhou's house, Nie Feng had just left her house and went to the study to entertain Gu Deyuan. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qingzhu said to the little maid waiting outside the house, and when the little maid passed, Qingzhu pulled the curtain and invited Gu Jiaoxiang in.

On the fifth day of the first lunar month, it had snowed again just a few days ago, and it was so cold outside that I couldn't wait to freeze people into ice mounds. Gu Jiaoxiang was already wearing thin clothes, and as soon as she entered the room, her body was a little stiff from the cold, and she was swept away by the oncoming heat, and she couldn't help but feel warm.

Just walking inside, the heat was heavier, and the room was smoked with fine sandalwood, but she couldn't help frowning.

The overheated room, coupled with the aroma of the room, made her feel a little dizzy.

It's just that when she thinks of Aunt Xiao Zhou's body and bones, and the love of Nie's father and son for her, she feels a little relieved.

When I entered the inner room again, I saw the long couch facing the faΓ§ade in the room, and Zhou was holding the soup woman in his arms, smiling and chanting towards the door and other directions.

As soon as Gu Jiaoxiang stepped into the room, she heard Zhou's somewhat excited laughing voice: "Xiang'er girl, come over and let Aunt Xiao Zhou take a look, I heard Yuan'er say that you are here today, I still don't believe it." ”

Gu Jiaoxiang walked up to Zhou in a few steps, saluted her, and called, "Aunt Xiao Zhou." ”

When Zhou saw Gu Jiaoxiang, he threw away the soup woman in his hand very excitedly, reached out and grabbed Gu Jiaoxiang's hands and pulled her to him, and immediately sighed, and asked with a surprised face: "Why are your hands so cold?" But it's cold? ”

"If it's not in the way, it's just that when you come, you can stand outside for a longer time and be warm in the house." Gu Jiaoxiang let Zhou's rub her hands, and gradually became warm, she didn't withdraw it, just hooked the corners of her mouth to reply to Zhou's words, her expression was quiet and peaceful.

"Wearing so little? How do the maids around you serve? Zhou's gaze moved down from her little face, and he immediately saw what she was wearing.

Today, Gu Jiaoxiang is wearing a goose yellow cardigan short jacket, and the half-worn purple cloak is still draped on her shoulders, and when she entered the house, she was taken off by Qingzhu and hung on the warm screen in the house. ”

Zhou frowned and looked at her thin little face worriedly, his mouth was counting, and he felt a little distressed in his heart, mixed with some annoyance.

She had the heart to count, but this girl didn't seem to hear it, just sat quietly beside her, smiling lightly at the corner of her mouth, it was really with her mother's temperament, nothing to fight or make trouble, but what belonged to herself, and she gave it to others with peace of mind.

Just like now, I know that I have grievances in my heart, but it is rare to see her, and I don't know how to complain about her grievances.

Whether the two of them have lived well or not in the ancient mansion over the years, she doesn't know it, if it weren't for the fact that the Liu family and her repeatedly emphasized that they should not be involved in the affairs of the ancient mansion, how could she let the Zhang family bully her mother for so many years?

Zhou sighed helplessly, thinking that this girl still regarded herself as an outsider after all.

"Is your mother okay? I heard the rumors on the street yesterday, but is it true? "Zhou's yesterday was because he heard the rumors on the street that he fell ill in a hurry.

"Don't worry, my mother will be fine." Gu Jiaoxiang's eyes jumped, a bright light flashed, and she smiled at Zhou's Wan'er, her eyes were firm as if to assure her that her mother would be fine.

Zhou raised her eyes and glanced at Gu Jiaoxiang, Rao is face was still as calm as ever, but she could still feel that the pair of small hands she grabbed in her hands suddenly trembled a few times when she asked.

"Aunt Xiao Zhou, thank you Xiang'er, if my mother knew that you helped us like this, I think I would be grateful." Gu Jiaoxiang suddenly raised her head and smiled sweetly at her, her face was also full of gratitude.

Zhou suddenly understood that what she was grateful for was the rumored conditions of her Nie family's marriage.

She moved her mouth, originally wanted to say, don't worry, with Aunt Xiao Zhou here, she will definitely be able to help your mother and daughter regain what belongs to her, but when the words came to her mouth, she remembered Liu's original explanation, and she still didn't say anything.

She didn't know why Sister Su Xin asked her like that in the first place, and as a result, their situation in the ancient mansion was so miserable, and even now it is rumored that she was poisoned and unconscious, and she did not hesitate to let her only young daughter grow up alone in such an environment.

She didn't know whether it was right or wrong for her husband to put forward such harsh conditions to Master Gu, but she didn't want to look at this mother and daughter anymore, succumbing to the obscenity of the Zhang family, living such a restrained life.

If it was a few years earlier, maybe she could still think twice, but now that Xiang'er is getting older and older, and now she is past the age of Jilu, there is no birthday gift, no playmates, and no opportunity to participate in the banquet of women of the same age in the county to show her talents.

Sister Xin'er's life has been ruined in this foxy and vicious outer room, she must not watch Xiang'er be destroyed in her hands again, even if it is against the promise she made to Sister Xin'er, she has to fight for this mother and daughter.

Fortunately, they thought that they had a deep relationship, and they once took it upon themselves to point out the mandarin duck spectrum for the two little babies, anyway, she liked it tightly since this girl was young, and knew that her son also had some strange thoughts about the girl, so she wished that she could take it home as soon as possible to be a daughter-in-law.

She thought, if it weren't for the tragedy of the Liu family and the treacherous thing done by the old man of the ancient mansion, maybe they would have decided to marry the Gu family a long time ago.

Now, if you can rely on this marriage, not only can you have all the thoughts of yourself and your son, but you can also take the opportunity to help the mother and daughter regain an identity and status, which is the best of both worlds.

She knew that the master didn't have that kind of door view, and she also liked this girl in her heart, so when she said what she meant, the master didn't object.

The identity of the Nie family in Yangcheng County is very common now, but to deal with a small Gu family, it is a matter of easy access, and it is with this that the master will come to visit and directly talk to the ancient master about the conditions of marriage.

The character of Gu Deyuan, the old man of the ancient mansion, the master knows, presumably if he can climb up to his Nie family as an in-law, he will definitely be able to make Gu Deyuan's heart move, so he put forward this condition, just waiting for him to make a choice.

Let's start with a change. How's the chopping action? Do your hands hurt? (To be continued.) )
