Chapter 43: Marriage

In a blink of an eye, it was December 20, and the days of the year were almost gone, in a hurry, and did not stop for anyone.

Gu Mingxin sat in the warm room like a ball and listened boredly to the discussion of the excitement of the banquet outside, what people who went to greet the prince with him were all the sons and daughters of the powerful family, his own prince really had face, what bride's dowry was full of one hundred and twenty units, but it was eight less than that of the first lady, but it was also considered to give more dowry in the marriage, you don't see that the dowry of the lord of Yongfu County last time was only one hundred and twenty-two, and the dishes on the banquet were made by the chef of Changsheng Building, Those guests all said that our Guogong Mansion was generous, and the people who sent relatives to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion were not to mention how proud they were after hearing it, and also, I heard that the emperor and queen also gave gifts??????

Listening to the noisy bustle of gongs and drums outside, Gu Mingxin was a little lost, although she knew that this was not her father's affection for her mother or something, it was impossible for the heir of a big family not to have a housewife, it was inevitable to marry another woman, this has nothing to do with love, it is just a responsibility, but it is still uncomfortable to think about it, as for why? I can't tell, it may be for the unblessed mother, or for the upcoming aunt to become a stepmother, or for the future ignorant life.

Originally, some lively subordinates saw that Miss Gu was depressed and had no energy, thinking that she couldn't go out to play and was unhappy, as for whether she was unhappy because she listened to them? That's impossible, what does a two-year-old baby know? No kidding. But then it quieted down, because my own lady likes to be quiet, even if she goes out to play, she sits quietly under the tree and plays.

The surroundings were quiet, but the lively sound outside still came in unrelentingly, which made it even more quiet here in the east courtyard, Gu Mingxin was going to go outside today, but because of her physical condition, she stayed in the courtyard, and waited until tomorrow when she recognized her relatives, of course, if the weather was bad tomorrow, you can not go, this is what Mama said to her, saying that it was ordered by the old lady, of course, the Weiyuan Hou Mansion also knows, if it is someone else's house, it can't, and the children of the first lady don't come when they recognize their relatives, What does that mean? But who said that the two families have already been in-laws once? But she thought that her stepmother would definitely not be happy, even if the two families had already asked her opinion, she generously agreed, but after all, this is a matter of the bottom.

The night gradually came, and the noise outside gradually receded, and after drinking a small bowl of milk, a small bun, and a plate of green vegetables, Gu Mingxin stopped eating it, the appetite of this body has always been very small, and she didn't dare to force herself to eat more, she has been following the intention of the body, slowly recuperating the body, and the body's functions will react to how much nutrients it can absorb, so she just needs to go with the flow.

After dinner, Gu Mingxin thought that she didn't know what the ancient cave room was like, and she really wanted to see it, especially her father's cave room, which would be more interesting, but unfortunately the reality was not powerful, and she was regretting it, a young but calm voice sounded in her ears, it was the little brother asking her grandmother about her situation today, thinking that a child pretending to be old and feeling funny, and just thinking about the little brother, he walked in quickly.

Gu Mingxin saw her little brother coming, and showed a sweet smile: "Brother." ”

The little boy also said softly: "Sister, grandma said that my sister is very well-behaved today, and my brother rewarded you with a little jade fish, which was given to me by an uncle today, and you also have it, grandfather helped you put it away, and I will give it to you tomorrow." ”

Gu Mingxin snatched the little jade fish happily like an ordinary child, she didn't want to stand out too much, things like prodigies were not suitable for her who planned to keep a low profile.

After taking a look at the exquisitely carved little jade fish, Gu Mingxin took one of his toys and handed it to the little brother, the little brother happily took it, thought about it and returned it to Gu Mingxin and said, "Is this for me?" Brother doesn't want it, it's better for my sister to keep it. ”

Gu Mingxin also ignored him, and played with herself, this brother always likes to give things to her, and she doesn't want to give it to him, so forget it, these are inconsequential things, there is no need to argue about it, when the time comes, see what is suitable for him, and it is not too late to give it to him.

Suddenly, I heard the little brother say a little incomprehensibly: "Sister, grandmother said that tomorrow we will call Aunt Sixteen as our mother, and we can't call Aunt Sixteen anymore. ”

Gu Mingxin couldn't answer this child's little troubles, so she could only raise her head and say twice.

The little brother didn't expect Gu Mingxin's answer, how could the younger sister understand the question he couldn't understand, so he waved his hand like a little adult and said, "Forget it, let's do what Grandmother says." “

At this time, Mama Chen, who was listening, said: "Our eldest young master is so well-behaved and sensible. “

Gu Mingxin also felt that her little brother was really sensible, and it was a very happy thing to have an older brother who was so sensible and loved his sister, so she also nodded and said, "Good, good." “

The little brother was very happy to hear this and said, "Look, my sister said to be obedient." “

Mama Chen also said happily: "Yes, our eldest lady is so smart. “

Gu Mingxin secretly rolled her eyes in her heart, in Mama Chen's eyes, everything is good for their brothers and sisters, even if she wants to go outside to play, she can be said to be lively and cute, the little brother brought her something to play with and said that her brother knows how to love brothers and sisters when he is so young, and he must be a good brother when he grows up, although she believes that the little brother is indeed like this, but don't say it so bluntly, okay?

The little brother played with Gu Mingxin for a while and then went back to the outer courtyard, and Gu Mingxin slept obediently.

The next day was the day when the stepmother recognized her relatives, and it was a cloudy day for Tiangong to come very facelessly, Gu Mingxin had no intention of giving her stepmother a child, she really wanted to take this opportunity to get out of the yard, but unfortunately Tiangong was not beautiful, and her grandmother sent someone early in the morning to say that she didn't need to take her over.

At noon, it snowed heavily in the sky, and the snowflakes drifted through the window, imagining the beautiful scenery outside, but he could only be confined in the house, thinking about it and feeling powerless, who called the body not strong? And the head is a little dizzy, this is a cold, the stepmother got sick as soon as she started, this is the rhythm of fighting with the stepmother to the end, she really doesn't want to be like this.

Gu Mingxin thought groggily, as if she heard her stepmother's voice, her stepmother came to give her a gift, and asked her about her recent physical condition, and when Dr. Liao came in a hurry, her stepmother looked around her anxiously, and asked someone to send a letter to her grandmother for a while, and scolded her for how the next person served, alas, she was really grateful to her stepmother for being so good to her, but she wanted to be quiet, really.
