Chapter 126: Boyan
"Grandma, He Banxia has returned from the capital!"
Ziwei leaned into Gu Jialuo's ear and whispered. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Gu Jialuo put down the needlework in his hand and raised his head, "Oh? She's already back in Umeng? β
In fact, what she wanted to ask more was whether He Banxia had already returned to the mansion.
Ziwei nodded and whispered: "But she didn't go back to the mansion directly, but went to the pharmacy in the south of the city." β
"That's normal."
Gu Jialuo nodded, He Banxia has not been idle in Wumeng for a few months, in addition to staring at the plantations on the outskirts of the city, he also took advantage of the east wind of Wumeng's commercial prosperity to open a pharmacy called Jimintang in the south of the city.
There is nothing to do every day, He Banxia will sit in Jimin Hall for consultation, her character is not good, but her medical skills are not bad.
Moreover, two months ago, before He Banxia left Wumeng to go to the capital, he specially invited the famous goddess doctor Yao Si's grandmother to come to Jimintang for free consultation, and the medicinal materials needed were also sold at a discount, which really won the praise of many people.
What kind of hanging pot to help the world, what kind of benevolence and benevolence, there was no other news in the streets and alleys of Wumeng in those days, all of them were words praising He Banxia and Yao Xiruo.
After this incident, He Banxia's Jimin Hall opened up the situation in Wumeng, and its limelight once overwhelmed the Yan Medical Center opened by Dr. Yan.
Then He Banxia set off for the capital, and Gu Jialuo estimated that she must have made some moves when she came back this time.
Sure enough, I heard Ziwei hesitantly say: "There is another thing, the maid doesn't know if it is related to He Banxia." β
Gu Jialuo raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter?" β
Ziwei said: "I reported two days ago that I was staring at Jimintang's eyeliner, saying that I saw Grandma Yao Si-"
Gu Jialuo hurriedly asked, "Yao Xiruo came to Wumeng?" "How did she not know?
Or, Yao Xiruo knew the news of He Banxia's return, and deliberately rushed to talk to her in advance?
Ziwei nodded, "The eyeliner feels strange, it stands to reason that Grandma Yao Si is your cousin, and she is the concubine in the next room, no matter from the relationship over there, she should be informed when she comes to Wumeng." Unless,"
Gu Jialuo smiled coldly and took over the conversation: "Unless she has an ulterior secret and doesn't want me to know her whereabouts." Rest assured, though, she'll be on the door soon. β
If Yao Xi understands Gu Jialuo, how can Gu Jialuo not know the temperament of this mortal enemy?
Gu Jialuo is sure that if Yao Xi acts carefully, conceited and proud, she will be sure again and again before every step she takes, and she will never show any flaws.
The last time she was able to calculate Yao Xiruo's success, it was mainly due to Yao Xiruo's lack of awareness of her changes and underestimating the enemy.
Now that they are aware of each other's means and abilities, they will inevitably be careful when they fight again.
"Wouldn't she, she, she's not afraid that we will suspect her?" Ziwei was a little incomprehensible, according to her thoughts, since Yao Xiruo wanted to act in secret, why not stick to the end?
Gu Jialuo curled the corners of his lips, "Afraid? Hehe, Yao Xi is so conceited, she is too late to be complacent, how can she be afraid? β
As the master and servant were talking, there was a faint sound of footsteps outside.
Immediately afterwards, the little maid's announcement came, "Grandma, Grandma Yao is here!" β
Gugaro's laugh lines deepened.
Ziwei looked at her master with great admiration.
"Xiang'er, how are you doing? Is the little guy in the belly still well-behaved? β
Yao Xiruo greeted Gu Jialuo with a smile, and when his eyes swept over Gu Jialuo's slightly convex lower abdomen, his pupils contracted slightly, but he quickly covered it again.
Gu Jialuo was keenly aware of this, and his heart became more and more vigilant.
Yao Xiruo was like an ordinary 'eldest sister', asking about Gu Jialuo's daily life with great concern.
Like what is the appetite, is there morning sickness, can you sleep well at night...... and so on, while asking, he explained in the tone of an expert, and carefully said some tips for regulating appetite and calming the nerves and helping sleep.
Gu Jialuo also made a look of listening carefully every time he heard the 'wonderful' place, he couldn't help but nod his head and ask a few words in a timely manner.
The atmosphere of the conversation between the sisters was very harmonious, and it was not at all obvious that they were the most disgusted enemies of each other.
"Ding! The first-level energy body is discovered, and it is recommended that the host absorb it! Yao Xiruo was chatting with each other, and suddenly the system, which had not moved for several days, shouted, and she was so shocked that she almost changed color.
But Yao Xiruo was not a mortal after all, and after a momentary change in his face, he immediately returned to normal.
Her eyes scanned like a radar in the warmly arranged western room, and finally landed on the Hundred Treasure Pavilion against the wall.
Oh no, on one of the ornaments of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, to be exact.
Belch? ThenγEmerald cabbage at that time?!
Yao Xiruo's breathing became a little short, but her sanity was still there, in order not to arouse Gu Jialuo's suspicion, she deliberately pretended to be the one she had just discovered, and said lightly, "What a delicate thing, this is carved from jade?" β
She made a curious look, got up and paced to the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, and reached out to touch the cabbage - there was a system, she only had to put her hand on it, and she could absorb the vast amount of energy contained in the jade cabbage.
As everyone knows, Gu Jialuo was very defensive of her, especially her short-term gaffe, which also fell in Gu Jialuo's eyes.
Gu Jialuo didn't know what Yao Xiruo wanted to do, but instinctively felt that it was better not to let her touch the cabbage.
She quickly gave Ziwei a look.
Ziwei understood, rushed to Yao Xiruo's approach with an arrow step, turned sideways, and skillfully used her shoulder to block Yao Xiruo's outstretched hand.
Ziwei also said in her mouth, "Back to Grandma Yaosi's words, this is the best jade carving, and it is a gift from our uncle to the grandmother, and the grandmother likes it very much, and she is not allowed to touch others." Even the cleaning on weekdays is done by the grandmother herself...... Please also forgive Grandma Yaosi. β
After finishing speaking, she actually stood in front of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion and covered the jade cabbage tightly.
Yao Xiruo was slightly angry, but she couldn't be angry with a maid, so she turned her head to look at Gu Jialuo without worry.
Gu Jialuo didn't seem to see it, and said symbolically: "Ziwei, don't be rude." β
didn't say a word about the extra words, and didn't offer to let Yao Xiruo play with the cabbage.
Gu Jialuo's meaning is very clear, the jade cabbage is her beloved thing, and no one can touch it except her. And Yao Xiruo is naturally within the scope of 'anyone'.
Yao Xi was angry, but he was helpless, now was not the time to tear his face with Gu Jialuo.
It's a pity that she can't absorb the energy of the jade cabbage, but she has more important things to do, and she needs Gu Jialuo's 'cooperation'.
Smiling wryly, Yao Xiruo said to himself: "It turned out to be a gift from the uncle, hehe, it should be treasured." β
She stumbled back to her chair under the south window, picked up the tea bowl, and took a few sips of tea.
The warm liquid slid into her stomach and intestines, and her emotions slowly came under control.
When she put down the tea bowl, Yao Xiruo was the standard lady with a dignified and gentle smile.
Yao Xiruo's series of reactions, Gu Jialuo saw them all, and praised again in his heart: What a Yao Xiruo, no wonder 'Gu Jialuo' would lose so badly!
"Xiang'er, I heard that you are very close to He Banxia of Jimin Hall?"
Yao Xiruo leaned forward and asked in a mysterious whisper.
'Heard'? Ha, what a 'heard'! He Banxia had been living in Wumeng Mansion for several months, and Yao Xiruo had only heard about it.
A hint of mockery flashed in Gu Jialuo's eyes, but she quickly covered it up again, and she chuckled: "Yes, I was in the Iron Threshold Nunnery that day, and I used to share a courtyard with her. Now that we meet again, I have some contact with her. β
Yao Xiruo's eyebrows frowned slightly, as if he had thought of something bad, and said without saying anything: "Xiang'er, I also have some contact with He Banxia, and I was invited to Jimintang for free treatment before, but, but a few days ago, I received a letter from an old friend in Beijing, which mentioned some bad things, uh, all related to He Banxia." β
Gu Jialuo was slightly shocked, this was not pretending, she was really surprised. Yao Xiruo and He Banxia were obviously accomplices on the same ship, why did she take the initiative to run in front of her to expose He Banxia?!
If Yao Xi was deliberately tempted, or was there another conspiracy?
Gu Jialuo's brain was running rapidly, and his two eyes were staring at Yao Xiruo even more tightly, never letting go of any of her mood swings.
Yao Xiruo's face was still full of worry and concern, bit his lower lip, and said in embarrassment: "What is the specific matter, I, I can't tell you directly, because that old friend told me to keep it secret." But I can tell you one thing, Naga Banxia is dangerous, you, you must not get involved with her again. β
Gu Jialuo's mind was full of all kinds of speculations, she deliberately made a surprised appearance, and exclaimed softly: "Won't it?" He Banxia shouldn't hurt me. AndγAnd I'm doing business with her now.γShouldn't be fine? β
Yao Xiruo did not ask 'what business' as Gu Jialuo wished, but made an anxious look, and persuaded repeatedly: "Oh, Xiang'er, you listen to my advice, quickly break off with He Banxia, don't care about any business or not, people's safety is the most important thing...... Others, I can't say more, you only remember one thing, stay away from He Banxia. β
After saying this, she was afraid that Gu Jialuo would ask questions, so she hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Looking at Yao Xiruo's almost hasty back, Gu Jialuo was full of doubts in his heart, what the hell is going on?!
Could it be that there is a change in Beijing?
The 'magical effect' of Yingsu was finally discovered, and then the imperial court began to track it down?
Probably not, Gu Jialuo once speculated about He Banxia's plan, and in her plan, at least until Gu Jialuo's plantation harvested the warbler fruit, and there was tangible evidence, the true face of the warbler would be revealed.
Then, Gugaro, the largest plantation owner, would be the most appropriate scapegoat to bear all the consequences.
And now, the warbler corn flowers in the suburbs have just bloomed all over the hillside, and the demonic red color is terrifying. There are still two months before the capsule is ripe, and now that it is exposed, Gu Jialuo has time to destroy the evidence in advance.
Or is Yao Xiruo too confident in He Banxia, and thinks that He is so good that he can fool Gu Jialuo?!
"Ziwei, is Xiao 13 back?"
Gu Jialuo sat in silence for a moment, and suddenly asked.
Ziwei hurriedly replied: "Not yet." β
Gu Jialuo asked again: "What news is there in Jingli?" β
Ziwei shook her head, "Not yet!" β
Gu Jialuo's mind was a little confused.
"Ouch~"
The baby in the belly also joined in the fun and kicked her hard. Gu Jialuo subconsciously hummed softly, touched her lower abdomen with her hand, clearly felt the vitality of the fetus, and her irritable mood was soothed.
But soon, Yao Xiruo's strange eyes flashed in her mind, and the heart she had just put down beat uneasily.
"Bring pen and paper, I'm going to write a letter!"
Gu Jialuo's eyes were full of perseverance, her baby, she would never allow anyone to hurt her.
β¦β¦
In the evening, Qi Jinzhi came back from the yamen, and he was greeted by Gu Jialuo's familiar smiling face.
"How are you doing today? The little guy didn't bother you! β
Qi Jinzhi habitually asked, took off his coat, changed into homely clothes, he lay on Gu Jialuo's lower abdomen, listened quietly for a while, and then said with some disappointment: "Didn't you say that he was already able to move, why can't I feel it every time?" β
Since knowing that Gu Jialuo was pregnant, Qi Jinzhi has consulted a lot of professionals such as Mother Qu and Dr. Yan, and learned a lot about the common sense of pregnant women and fetuses, and clearly knew the changes in each stage of the fetus.
After Gu Jialuo was five months pregnant, greeting her son every day became a compulsory course for Qi Jinzhi, a novice silly father.
It's a pity that the little baby who doesn't know the gender is very naughty, and he plays with his mother a lot during the day, but when he arrives at his father's place, he doesn't move.
For this reason, Qi Jinzhi complained to Gu Jialuo a lot.
Gu Jialuo smiled contentedly and warmly, "He kicked me a few times in the afternoon, probably tired, when he moves again, I'll call you!" β
Qi Jinzhi gently patted Gu Jialuo's belly, and scolded with a feigned angry smile: "What a narrow little guy, you know that you are naughty with Daddy at such a young age?" Let's see how Daddy will clean you up after you come out......"
The silly father said stupid things, which made Gu Jialuo funny and angry.
The husband and wife laughed for a while, and Gu Jialuo casually asked about the outside.
Qi Jinzhi suddenly remembered the matter, sat up straight, and pulled out a letter from his cuffs, "Father has sent a letter, and the words have been taken, you see!" β
As he spoke, he handed the letter to Gu Jialuo's eyes.
Gu Jialuo took the letter paper, browsed up and down with a pair of phoenix eyes, and finally saw two words, "Bo Yan?" Chu Ci has a cloud, 'There is no ultimate in music, and it is passing away to wander'. Did my father take these two words to mean 'far-reaching'? β
Of course, it can also be understood as the meaning of stretching and vast.
Anyway, it is hoped that Qi Jinzhi can inherit the ambition of the ancestors of the Qi family and carry forward the Qi family.
Qi Jinzhi bowed slightly.
Gu Jialuo muttered softly, "Qi Jinzhi, word Boyan, Qi Boyan!" β
Qi Jinzhi smiled and nodded, that's right, he will be Qi Boyan in the future.
Gu Jialuo stretched out his hand and pressed Qi Jinzhi's dimple, and praised: "Good name, good words, my father has great expectations for my husband." β
Qi Jinzhi grabbed Gu Jialuo's softness, "I will live up to my father's expectations, and I will definitely revive the Qi family to glory." β
The husband and wife clasped hands and gazed at each other warmly.
β¦β¦ After saying the good news, Qi Jinzhi said another bad news, "There is news from Beijing, there seems to be something wrong in the palace!" β
