When Gu Jialuo saw Qi Jinyi's sudden appearance, he knew that he had listened to his words, so he didn't continue the topic. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After putting the roster away, Gu Jialuo remembered another thing and said in a consultative tone: "There is another thing I want to ask the uncle about." ”

Qi Jinzhi came back to his senses and raised his eyebrows, "What's the matter?" ”

Gu Jialuo smiled and said, "We're leaving next month, I wonder if I want to invite my relatives and friends at home to have a meal and get together before leaving?" ”

The Qi family lost their titles and gradually distanced themselves from the social circle of high society, but the Qi family's in-laws were still there.

Qi Jinzhi and his wife left Beijing this time, and if there is no accident, they will not come back for a few years. Before leaving, it is also the right thing to hold a small banquet and invite a few relatives and friends to contact each other.

Qi Jinzhi thought for a while, "Yes, we have to leave, so we have to say goodbye to our relatives." "By the way, please help take care of the house.

When Gu Jialuo heard that he agreed, he asked with a smile, "Then I'll go back to my mother?" ”

The county lord of Qinghe is the mother of the house, and Gu Jialuo wants to entertain the guests, even if he pays for it out of his own pocket, he must ask for the permission of the county lord.

Qi Jinzhi nodded, he was still thinking about his cousin, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he and his father had complicated things.

Even if Xu Ai was instructed to come to the Qi family, they only needed to treat her as an ordinary woman and deal with her in a 'normal' way.

Qi Jinzhi couldn't sit still, looked up at the sky, it was not too late, he got up and dropped a sentence: "I'm going to the study, you can settle it yourself." ”

"Uncle, don't be too tired, your body is important."

Gu Jialuo got up, like a virtuous wife, and while nagging her husband to take care of his body, he personally sent him out of the main room.

Qi Jinzhi waved his hand, indicating that he knew.

When he stepped out of the room, he seemed to think of something, turned around, and said to Gu Jialuo seriously: "There have been a lot of things at home recently, and grandma has also worked hard. Now that the situation is special, when we settle down, I will definitely repay the eldest grandmother. ”

Gu Jialuo's dedication to the Qi family and to him, bit by bit, Qi Jinzhi saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.

Now, when he looks at Gu Jialuo again, he has long forgotten the scene he saw in the 'dream', and he no longer cares about the scandal that Gu Jialuo once had with Qi Mianzhi, let alone treat her as an enemy who will be dealt with quickly.

As the time between the two increased, Qi Jinzhi's perception of Gu Jialuo became better and better.

Sometimes, Qi Jinzhi couldn't help but think that it was a very good thing to have a wife like Gu Jialuo.

Of course, this 'wife' is not their current 'respectful as ice' partnership, but a real wife.

After a long time, Gu Jialuo's figure gradually came into his heart, and Qi Jinzhi secretly swore that he would get along with Gu Jialuo well.

After a long time, as long as he treats him sincerely, Gu Jialuo will understand his mind sooner or later.

By then...... Hehe, Qi Jin already has a plan in his heart, and after the two of them leave the capital, he will do it in turn.

"Uncle said with a smile, we are husband and wife, we should support each other, how can we talk about 'repaying' or not 'repaying'?"

Gu Jialuo always felt that Qi Jinzhi's tone was strange, but she didn't think much about it, let alone realize that her husband had already developed feelings for her, smiled and humbled herself, and revealed the matter.

Seeing Gu Jialuo's disappreciative look, Qi Jinzhi was a little disappointed, but he didn't get too entangled, and walked out of the Agarwood Courtyard.

……

"Well, I was negligent, I really should invite relatives and friends to come and sit at home."

The county lord of Qinghe listened to Gu Jialuo's words, thought about it contemplatively, and nodded slowly.

Gu Jialuo hurriedly said: "The affairs of the family are complicated, mother, you are in charge of the feed, you have to take care of the affairs of the family, and you are busy all day long, these are inconsequential little things, and it is normal to be negligent occasionally." On the contrary, I don't have much to do on weekdays, so I only think about these trivial things. ”

The county lord of Qinghe shook his head and said, "That's not what I said, although our family has no title, our in-laws are still there." I can't get over that hurdle in my heart, and in recent days, even if I receive an invitation, I don't go far away. Alas, that's not good. ”

After the Qi family's accident, the county lord of Qinghe has always behaved very calmly, handling the affairs of the family very rationally and calmly, and even being able to deal with all the storms calmly.

But her heart is not as 'indifferent' as she appears on her face.

Just kidding, a moment ago she was still a noble duchess, and she held a military power in her family, and she made people look up to her wherever she went.

is in her mother's house, those sisters-in-law and sisters look at her with all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred, and they are extremely enthusiastic and admired for her.

But suddenly, her husband's title was gone, the Qi family's military power was taken away, and all the property was confiscated.

In the end, the family could only live on her private property and live on her dowry.

This is a great blow to the proud Qinghe County Lord who has been proud all his life.

The county lord of Qinghe can guess with his toes that the noblewomen who envy her and even scold her on weekdays, seeing her now, may not be able to gloat and fall into the well.

And the mother's ...... Although the attitude of her parents and brothers towards her is the same as always, the sisters-in-law are not to mention, just last year's New Year, the New Year's gift sent by the Ma family was reduced by nearly half!

This is still the case with my own relatives, not to mention those outsiders.

Therefore, since moving into Wenchang Hutong, the county lord of Qinghe rarely goes out.

Of course, one of the reasons for this is because the Qi family is no longer noble, but more importantly, the county lord of Qinghe is unwilling to face the ridicule or sympathy of others.

Even if it is a banquet for the old home of the in-laws, the county lord of Qinghe can push it and try not to forget to make it up.

But Gu Jialuo's proposal 'reminded' the county lord of Qinghe - she couldn't cut herself off from the social circle of the capital. The Qi family is not the Guogong Mansion anymore, but she is still the county lord of Qinghe, her eldest son still has to be an official, and her daughter and second son have to talk about family affairs.

And these are all things that require normal communication.

The county lord of Qinghe raised his eyes to look at Gu Jialuo, and sighed softly: "Good boy, I have lived for so many years in vain, and I am not as open-minded as you." ”

What are you afraid of, isn't it just to be said two sour words and give two white eyes, she is in her forties, and her face is getting thinner.

Gu Jialuo didn't know that the county lord of Qinghe had thought so much, and after hearing what her mother-in-law said, she couldn't help but be a little sneering, and said in her heart, the reason why she held a small banquet was just to say goodbye to her old friends in Beijing, and by the way, let the relatives at home come over and take a turn, this, how can this still have anything to do with 'open-mindedness'?

The county lord of Qinghe thought that Gu Jialuo was modest, and couldn't help laughing: "What a sensible child, Da Lang can have such a good wife as you, it is really his blessing." ”

Gu Jialuo became more and more unsure of how to answer.

The county lord of Qinghe said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will handle this matter well." It just so happened that the people in Dongfu were about to move out, and the houses over there were all vacated, and they could be used for banquets after a little tidying up. ”

The county lord of Qinghe put on a correct attitude and treated the matter of the 'farewell banquet' as a serious matter: which people to be invited, where to entertain guests, the general menu of the banquet, and whether to arrange a small drama...... Wait, wait, a long list of words fell down, only to smash Gu Jialuo stunned.

In other words, she just wanted to invite her close in-laws (such as the Gu family and the Feng family) to come to the house for a light meal, and by the way, she didn't have to be so big.

Gu Jialuo felt that according to the arrangement of the county lord of Qinghe, it was comparable to the birthday banquet in the family, or some kind of happy feast.

The county lord of Qinghe is talking about it, she has regarded the 'farewell banquet' as a symbol of her return to high society, and she wants to make it perfect.

In the end, she is the person who has been the head mother of the Guogong Mansion, and she is called an orderly person when she takes care of things.

When Gu Jialuo was stunned, the county lord of Qinghe had already formulated the general process of the banquet, and then he only needed to consider some details.

“…… The date is set for the twenty-sixth of this month, and the invitation from your in-laws' side will be sent by you personally, and it just so happens that you will also go to see the elders in the family."

The county lord of Qinghe finalized the big event, and then began to assign tasks, Gu Jialuo gave her a wake-up call, and returned the favor, and the county lord of Qinghe intended to give her a chance to return to her parents' home.

When Gu Jialuo heard this, he couldn't care about the doubts in his heart, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, thank you mother!" ”

It just so happens that she also misses her relatives at home, and since she went back during the Chinese New Year, it has been more than two months, and she has never had the opportunity to go home again.

……

In the early morning of this day, Gu Jialuo changed into a new jacket and skirt, and walked out of Wenchang Hutong with a few personal maids such as crape myrtle and perilla.

When he walked to the corner gate of Zhao Guogong's mansion, the housekeeper's mother who came to greet him said with a smile: "Today is really a good day, the two young ladies have come back." ”

Gu Jialuo raised his eyebrows, "The eldest sister is also back?" ”

It is not difficult to guess that the daughters of the Gu family's generation who are married are her and Gu Lin.

The housekeeper's mother hurriedly said: "No, the eldest lady just entered the door with her front foot, and the second lady came back, hehe, as if it was done." ”

As he spoke, he respectfully welcomed Gu Jialuo into the door.

Gu Jialuo was noncommittal, her feud with Gu Lin was not a secret, but she would not make a noise everywhere, and even in front of people, the two of them had to make a 'deep sisterhood'.

Gu Jialuo entered the second gate and went to Daoxiangyuan to greet his grandmother first.

As soon as he walked into the courtyard, Gu Jialuo heard a faint laughter, yes, Gu Lin should also be here.

Gu Jialuo didn't pause and went straight up the steps.

The little maid who opened the curtain at the door hurriedly passed inside: "The second lady is back." ”

There was a burst of laughter in the room, but soon the old lady of the Zhao family shouted angrily: "Is it Xiang'er?" Come on in. ”

Gu Jialuo said yes at the door, lifted the curtain and entered the main hall.

In the hall, Zhao was reclining on the Luohan bed, Gu Lin was sitting on the drum pier in front of the bed, and the two grandparents were talking and laughing.

Song and Gu sat on the official hat chair below, both with smiles on their faces.

Gu Jialuo greeted the three elders.

Zhao beckoned, motioned for Gu Jialuo to sit down beside him, and said in his mouth: "You came just in time, Lin'er told Qiong'er about good family affairs, you can also listen to it......" (To be continued.) )
