The next day, the wind and snow did not stop, Shen Zhuo did not bring anyone by his side, and went to Xuzhou alone, Dongfang Jian took Shen Yu back to Changyang, before leaving, Brother Yu was in tears, reluctant to leave Gu Sanniang and Xiao Yezi, and it was not long before the New Year, Gu Sanniang thought that their family was scattered all over the place, and she felt uncomfortable, but she also knew that the person who died was Jiang Zhongming, and Brother Yu had to go back, so she was patient and comforted Brother Yu, Brother Yu was in tears, and reluctantly went with Dongfang Inspection.

Shen Zhuo and Brother Yu left, Gu Sanniang only felt empty in her heart, but fortunately, there was a little leaf by her side, who could always be by her side.

This snow has been falling for dozens of days, until these days have stopped, since Shen Zhuo's father and son left, Gu Sanniang has been sullen, Caiyun saw that she didn't think about tea and dinner, so she said that the snow stopped the town to open a fair, persuaded her to go out for a walk, Gu Sanniang was too lazy to move, but Xiaoyezi repeatedly asked her to go out, Gu Sanniang had to nod and agree, and only Liu Wupo and Wanfu were left at home to guard the door.

A few people went out, the cold wind outside was a little biting, Gu Sanniang wore a cloak to block the wind, it snowed for days, by this time, the snow had almost melted, only the snow was still left on the roof, Gu Sanniang took Xiao Yezi's hand and walked slowly along the street.

Because it is the day of the market, there are many households in Sili and Eight Townships who pick up their own radish and cabbage to exchange for money, Gu Sanniang was in Lixian County before, and she is in charge of the inside and outside of the house, but when she enters Jiang's Mansion, she has her own family servants to eat and dress, Gu Sanniang Town is raised in the inner courtyard, and she has not even entered the door of the back kitchen of Jiang's Mansion a few times.

"Buy some radishes and stew them back." Gu Sanniang said to Xiao Yezi.

Xiao Yezi nodded busily, her mother was restless these days, and the whole person had lost a lot of weight, it was rare for her to take the initiative to eat, Xiao Yezi said: "I am the best at picking radishes, I picked radishes that are big and sweet, and I like to eat them!" ”

Then, seeing her excitedly stepped forward and carefully selected the radish, Caiyun saw it and said with a smile: "The girl is a filial person, and she thinks about grandma everything." ”

The girl is sensible and considerate, Gu Sanniang is happy, she looked at Caiyun and said: "At that time, her father had just left, I took her to move to the county seat, the family was so poor that she couldn't open the pot, she was like an adult, never screamed bitterly, and later, when I met your uncle, he helped our mother and son openly and secretly, if it weren't for him, life would have been unbearable." ”

Caiyun had also heard some things about her uncle and Gu Sanniang, and she couldn't figure out why the uncle was looking for a widow with a child, but after getting along with Gu Sanniang for a long time, she knew that she was upright, modest and kind, and she was in harmony with the uncle, so she respected her more and more.

"Grandma, in our yard, the uncle protects you, and the royal brother and the girl are also your respect and love, and in the near future, the brother in the belly should also be born, you just wait to enjoy the blessings."

Gu Sanniang smiled, and she said: "I now expect your uncle to be safe and sound, and the family will be reunited as soon as possible, and I don't ask for anything else." ”

Caiyun said with a smile: "Grandma don't worry, when the little brother is born, the uncle will come home." ”

When the two were talking, Xiao Yezi had already packed a few big radishes and walked towards them, Gu Sanniang remembered that there was no meat at home, she looked around, found a butcher shop, and pointed to a piece of good buttocks meat and asked the butcher to cut it off.

A few people bought meat and radishes, and walked home unhurriedly, until they entered the alley, and saw a carriage with a blue curtain parked at the door, Gu Sanniang took a look and said, "Who is here again?" ”

Wanfu, who was guarding the door, had sharp eyes, he saw Gu Sanniang, greeted him with a smile and said, "Grandma, look who is coming." ”

Gu Sanniang was puzzled, she entered the house, and as soon as she stepped into the courtyard gate, she saw Princess Jichang standing under the eaves, Princess Jichang looked at her from afar, with a smile on her usually cold face, she said: "Tell me to wait, the road is slippery on this snowy day, and I still run around with my stomach up, and I don't know how to cherish myself." ”

"Princess." At this time, Gu Sanniang was very surprised to see Princess Jichang, she walked quickly in front of Princess Jichang, held her hand and said, "Why are you here?" ”

She remembered that Shen Zhuo said that Princess Jichang was not allowed to leave Beijing without an edict, and she lived in seclusion in Wushan, and few people knew about it, so how did Princess Jichang know about it?

Princess Jichang took her hand into the inner room and said, "You are going to give birth, the uncle is not at ease outside, so I sent someone to send a letter and asked me to come and see you, so I used the excuse of going to the suburbs to Baimaguan to give the master Jiao, so I was able to go out." ”

Although Shen Zhuo did not meet with Princess Jichang many times, he knew that she had a good character, and Gu Sanniang was good friends with her, and when she was about to give birth, Shen Zhuo was not in front of her, so he specially asked her to help take care of Gu Sanniang.

After a pause, Princess Jichang said to her again: "The county lord didn't know that I was coming. ”

Gu Sanniang smiled and didn't speak, the Jiayuan monarch didn't like her and Shen Zhuo, everyone in the Jiang Mansion knew that Princess Jichang was delicate, and she had already seen that Shen Zhuo and his wife were guarding against the Jiayuan County Lord, because although she knew that Gu Sanniang lived in Wushan, she had never told anyone, even when she came to visit her this time, Princess Jichang also came over quietly.

The two sat on the kang, Liu Wupo changed into hot tea again, Princess Jichang looked at Gu Sanniang carefully, and said, "Why do I look at you as if you have lost weight." ”

Gu Sanniang touched her face, and she replied with a smile: "I think it's because we haven't seen each other for a long time, so you feel like this." ”

Princess Jichang looked at her round belly again and asked, "How are you doing here?" It's going to be born in a few days, and the midwife has been found, don't be in a hurry and have no rules. ”

Gu Sanniang said with a smile: "It can be seen that you are the lady in charge of the family, you are so far away, and you still think about everything for my sake, don't worry, Liu Wupo has found a very proper midwife in the town." ”

"That's good."

The two said a few words, and Gu Sanniang asked: "Ah Zhuo and Jin Sanye are gone, and there are only two women left in the house, you and the county lord, and the An family has not embarrassed you?" ”

Princess Jichang disagreed, she said: "The An family doesn't have the courage to do so, although the master is gone, Yu Wei is still there, and there are General Zhenyan and uncle, they don't dare to do anything." ”

Gu Sanniang thought for a while and whispered: "You still have to be more careful, Ah Zhuo said, there is a fear of war in the north, and if you can't get it, there will be chaos, so you have to plan as soon as possible." ”

Princess Jichang glanced at her and said with a smile: "Uncle even told you this?" Don't bluff yourself, the war won't reach the capital. ”

After all, their women's family didn't want to talk about these things, and the two of them knew it, so they kept their mouths.

At noon, Princess Jichang stayed for dinner, Gu Sanniang was interested, and she was going to cook a meal for her personally, but Liu Wupo couldn't resist her, so she had to go with her.

Gu Sanniang has not been near the stove for a long time, the craftsmanship is not unfamiliar at all, there is Liu Wupo to give her a fire, she steamed a pot of rice with her hands and feet, the main dish is pork stewed radish, plus a roasted fish, a bowl of fried tofu, a bowl of leek frangipani, and a plate of sesame oil stumbling radish shreds, when cooking, Gu Sanniang also took the time to say to Princess Jichang: "The countryside is not as good as the food and clothing in the house, you will just take it." ”

Princess Jichang was talking to Xiao Yezi in the courtyard, she glanced up at Gu Sanniang, and said, "Do I look like such a pampered person?" ”

Gu Sanniang remembered that An Jintang forcibly broke into the Prime Minister's Mansion that day, Princess Jichang pulled out a bow and arrow in front of the door, and suppressed all the men present, she smiled: "Who dares to say that you are pampered, such a heavy bow can also be opened, thanks to giving birth to a daughter, if it is a man, the general can also afford it!" ”

Princess Jichang listened to Gu Sanniang's words, and was slightly distracted, Xiao Yezi saw that she was silent, pulled her sleeve, and said, "Princess, why don't you speak?" ”

Princess Jichang came back to her senses, she smiled reluctantly, and said, "It's okay." ”

Gu Sanniang was busy for a long time, made a table of meals and came out, Gu Sanniang and Princess Jichang took Xiao Yezi to eat on the kang in the middle, just sat down, Gu Sanniang remembered that the old couple of the house owner gave a jar of rice wine a few days ago, so she asked Liu Wupo to take it out, Princess Jichang saw this, and said: "You are pregnant with a child and still eat wine, isn't this nonsense." ”

Xu is Princess Jichang, the housekeeper lady, has been in charge for a long time, even if she is younger than Gu Sanniang, seeing what she has done, she can't help but say a few words, but Gu Sanniang is not bored, people who are really good to you will persuade you, if it is that irrelevant person, who cares if you live or die?

"Don't get in the way, it's rice wine, I'm happy today, you can eat two cups with me."

Xiao Yezi also said: "These days, my mother is always frowning, and finally you came, she had a smile, and you just followed it." ”

Princess Jichang said happily: "Since this is the case, I will accompany you once, but I don't eat much." ”

The two of them were not formal, they sat down to eat at will, accompanied by Princess Jichang, Gu Sanniang used half a bowl of rice, Princess Jichang had a good amount of wine, saying that she only accompanied Gu Sanniang to eat two cups, and in the end, a jar of rice wine entered her stomach, which made Gu Sanniang laugh at her: "I only think you are a person who doesn't drink a drop of wine, it turns out that you have such a good amount of wine." ”

Princess Jichang was a little drunk, and she talked a little more than usual, she said: "In my hometown of Wusun Country, all men and women are good at drinking, and when I came to the Central Plains, I rarely drank as much as I do today." ”

Princess Jichang almost never mentioned her past, so Gu Sanniang asked, "I don't know how Wusun Kingdom is different from our Great Yuan Kingdom." ”

Princess Jichang leaned on the pillow, her eyes narrowed slightly, as if she remembered the situation in her hometown in the past, and after a while, she sighed faintly and said, "I have never been back since the day I left my hometown." ”

After speaking, Princess Jichang closed her eyes gently, Gu Sanniang looked at her, only to see her sad expression, and there seemed to be tears in the corners of her eyes, which was obviously aroused by homesickness, and Gu Sanniang was silent casually.

"In the world, there are always many unsatisfactory things, you are more difficult than me, I am not as good as you, and most of the men in the world are not as good as you."

Princess Jichang smiled, she picked up the wine bottle and shook it, and put it on the table, Gu Sanniang added a bowl of soup to her, and said, "It's not early, you can rest in my house for a while and go back to the city, so as not to miss the time to enter the city." ”

Princess Jichang nodded, but since mentioning her hometown, she has become less talkative again.

After the meal, Princess Jichang did not rest, so she took her family directly to the car, Gu Sanniang sent her to the entrance of the alley, and waited until her carriage gradually went away, and then turned back and entered the house. 166 Reading Network
