Empress Jiang couldn't believe what she heard.

She took a deep breath and told herself to calm down.

But how could she calm down with this news.

At this time, Empress Jiang couldn't help but look at Xia Ruan in the audience, but her eyes fell on Gu Xirou.

"Go and tell Uncle Guo, this palace knows about this." Empress Jiang rubbed her eyebrows, "Is Mama Xie back?" ”

The palace maid kneeling on the ground shook her head: "Mama Xie hasn't come back yet." ”

The corners of Empress Jiang's mouth hooked up a sneer: "Let her come back, the snow is heavy, and the palace is tired." ”

The palace maid nodded: "The slave maid will go immediately." ”

Queen Jiang looked at the play on stage, but she didn't have half of her thoughts.

Jiang family, has it really come to an end this time?

Empress Jiang was unwilling, she clenched her fists and showed a bitter smile.

Without the support of the Li family, the Jiang family is really not as good as before.

She didn't have much to last, she felt exhausted.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and Empress Jiang suddenly felt cold, and she reprimanded the little palace maid beside her: "How can it be so cold in the garden? Hongu is on his birthday today, do you want to freeze to death in Hongu? ”

The little palace maid standing beside the queen knelt on the ground in fright: "The queen mother is angry, and the slave maid will immediately add a few more pots of charcoal." ”

Empress Jiang shuddered, feeling that the air around her was cold and biting, as if she was going to burrow into her bones: "Don't go quickly." ”

The little palace maid almost crawled to fetch the charcoal, and for a while she was sitting next to Queen Jiang. It's almost hot and I want to take off a few clothes. It's just that they don't dare to complain at all, because no one understands why Queen Jiang has become like this at this time.

Zeng Guifei couldn't sit still anymore, she took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off her forehead.

At this time, it was already a cold winter wax moon, but the courtyard was as hot as June, standing under the scorching sun.

Zeng Guifei bit her lower lip angrily at this time, the queen must have done it on purpose, and the surroundings already made her feel depressed, but Queen Jiang was still talking cold, Zeng Guifei naturally lost the heart to continue watching the big drama on the stage. She wanted to leave alone, but she didn't know how to speak. After all, the queen is still here......

Zeng Guifei was a little uncontrollable.

The surrounding concubines were all hot and sweating profusely. But Empress Jiang didn't know it.

She was shivering so badly from the cold, her eyes widened, and she almost wanted to slap the little palace maid next to her regardless of her identity: "Can't you hear this palace talking to you?" Do you want to freeze to death in Hongu? ”

Empress Jiang raised her voice this time, and all the eyes of the audience looked over.

Xia Ruan held the teacup calmly. looked at Queen Jiang with a smile.

Gu Xirou looked at Xia Ruan's expression. A little more hesitant.

"Third Miss. You've already done it first? Gu Xirou was a little puzzled, and only after half a sound did she ask tentatively, "You can actually do it." ”

Xia Ruan turned his head to look at Gu Xirou. An innocent smile appeared: "What is Miss Eight talking about?" I don't understand something. ”

Gu Xirou pursed her lips and didn't continue to ask.

At this time, Xia Ruan was reluctant to tell her about it, which was also normal.

After all, she is just an outsider to Xia Ruan.

Gu Xirou rubbed her eyebrows, what is good now?

She didn't do this well.

She grew up in the Gu family since she was a child, and Song Enpei is a childhood sweetheart.

Over the years, as Xia Ruan said, she has some resentment towards An Guifei's aunt. If the uneasy concubine insisted on staying in the capital as her mother, her mother would not have been sick in bed and died depressed. Gu Xirou remembered that at that time, she always squatted beside her mother, watching her mother drink ink-like decoction every day, but her heart was more bitter than her mother.

My mother was a stubborn person, and when my father married my first aunt, my mother never slept with my father again.

She was not sensible at that time, and would always ask her mother: "Mother, where is Daddy?" Did he not like Rou'er anymore, so he stopped coming to see Rou'er? ”

At that time, her mother would hug her and cry silently, and then comfort her: "How come, Daddy and Mother like Rou'er the most." ”

When my father married my third aunt, my mother was already as thin as dry bones, and she was anxious.

She even knelt in front of her father and begged her father to take a look at her mother, but she didn't expect her mother to avoid it, and her father angrily threw down his sleeves and dropped a sentence: "Stubborn." ”

Outsiders all say that the old man of the Gu family and Mrs. An are harmonious and respectful.

But who knows, it's like this in the house.

On the night of her mother's death, Gu Xirou held her mother's hand tightly, and she seemed to have shed all her tears in that year: "Mother, don't sleep, you can talk to Rou'er, okay." ”

Mother smiled, her face was a little tired, and she said softly: "Silly Rou'er, my mother just rests for a while, and it will be fine tomorrow." In a few days, it will be summer, and my mother remembers that Rouer likes to flutter butterflies. When your father returns from Huai'an, I will ask your father to take you to the garden to flutter butterflies, okay? ”

After Gu Xirou heard this, she couldn't help crying anymore.

When my father returned from Huai'an, he brought back his first aunt.

Mother's memory seems to stay forever when my father went to Huai'an.

"Mother, don't scare Rou'er." Gu Xirou couldn't hold back any longer, and held her mother's hand tighter, "Mother, you still have Rou'er." ”

Her mother's eyes were blank, and she muttered to herself, as if she was saying it to Gu Xirou, and as if she was saying it to herself: "I always thought that An Lang would be the same as before, but unfortunately I was wrong." There was an Aunt Lin, another Aunt Chen, and finally another Aunt Wu...... Each one, he stabbed me hard in the heart...... Ruthless ...... He never belonged to me, and maybe there will be more aunts in the future. ”

Gu Xirou was already crying in fright, and she didn't dare to step out of the house.

After the mother-in-law and the maids heard Gu Xirou's cry, they hurried over, and she roared at those people: "Get out, you all get out of here." ”

The mother seemed to hear Gu Xirou's roar, and she stretched out her hand to wipe away Gu Xirou's tears: "Silly Rou'er." Why are you crying? Even if your mother is gone, the Gu family will not treat you badly, and your aunt will definitely not ignore you. ”

"It's all my aunt's fault, it's all my aunt's fault." Gu Xirou put her mother's hands in her arms, "If it weren't for my aunt, my mother would have returned to Danyang a long time ago, and it was all my aunt's fault." ”

The mother smiled helplessly: "Rou'er is talking nonsense, her mother is tired, and she wants to rest, is it okay for Rou'er to go back to the room?" ”

Gu Xirou shook her head: "Rou'er wants to accompany her mother." ”

There was a trace of tiredness in her mother's eyes: "Rou'er has to grow up quickly." Such. My mother will be able to go to Huai'an to pick up your father and go home. ”

After a long time, my mother closed her eyes and said softly, "An Lang, I'...... How hopeful. Accidentally. I'll grow old with you. Accidentally. Just ......"

This is the last word that Gu Xirou's mother left her.

Gu Xirou felt that the corners of her eyes were a little sour......

If it weren't for the fact that she met Song Yingruo, maybe she wouldn't be able to stand here safely.

The Gu family gave her status. But he never gave her the affection she wanted.

She only wants to cherish two people in her life, one is her late mother, and the other is Song Yingruo who wiped away her tears in the mourning hall.

"Third Miss, do you believe in feelings?" Gu Xirou suddenly said, "What I'm talking about is the love of husband and wife." ”

Xia Ruan looked at Gu Xirou thoughtfully, and smiled lightly: "Miss Eight, how can I answer this question?" However, I think that no matter what kind of relationship it is, it may need to be managed. Just like this blue and white tea cup, if you want it to be intact in your own hands, it's not just as simple as taking care of it. ”

Gu Xirou smiled awkwardly: "Maybe, it's just Third Miss, why would you refuse my proposal." My Aunt Song, she is really a good person, she will not treat Ang Lee badly, and she ...... She's really ...... I really want to marry a university scholar, I really want to. ”

Gu Xirou's directness, coming to the city made Xia Ruan a little unaccustomed.

If Song Yingruo likes Li Changfeng very much, maybe everyone in Beijing knows it.

But......

How can there be so much perfection in the world?

Xia Ruan's heart suddenly felt a little sour: "I know that Miss Song is very good, and the third uncle also knows." However, there are many good people in this world, and not every good person can get what he wants. If the third uncle is not the Li family, if he is not the prince, maybe ...... Maybe I'll accept your offer. It's just Miss Eight, everyone's wealth and nobility have a price, and the third uncle is no exception. ”

Li Changfeng has his responsibilities, and he almost has to carry the entire Li family.

When everyone was envious of his birth, no one thought about how much pressure he had.

Song Yingruo is indeed very good, if the third uncle is not the future head of the Li family, Xia Ruan thinks that Song Yingruo is very suitable for the third uncle.

It's just that she thinks so.

Whether Li Changfeng liked Song Yingruo or not, no one knows.

She's no exception.

The only thing Xia Ruan can understand is that Li Changfeng will never marry Song Yingruo, because Li Changfeng doesn't want to make Li An uncomfortable.

He was once a dutiful husband, and now he is a dutiful father.

Xia Ruan looked at Gu Xirou and suddenly understood why Gu Xirou, such an excellent woman, would marry Ang Li in the end.

Ang Lee's previous practices were a gentleman in the eyes of everyone, but those were just Ang Lee's disguises.

Li An is very similar to Li Changfeng in his bones, once he accepts someone, he will not betray him.

"Ruan girl." Xia Ruan's voice came from Li's ear, Xia Ruan quickly gathered his mind and raised his head to look at Li.

She smiled slightly: "Mother, you're back." ”

"Hmm." Li Shi looked at Gu Xirou, who was sitting on the side, and then looked at Xia Ruan, "Let's get out of the palace first, my mother feels a little tired." ”

Their status is not high, and no one will notice if they leave at this time.

Xia Ruan nodded, and after saying goodbye to Gu Xirou, he helped Li Shi to leave slowly.

At this time, Xia Ruan felt that Li's palms were full of cold sweat, and she frowned slightly.

Empress Jiang watched Xia Ruan and Li leave, and slowly stood up.

Before she could speak, she felt a black in front of her eyes and a heavy fall on her body.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother ......" (to be continued......)
