Chapter 14: Dark Fluctuations (Part II)
Everyone knows that the scattered small buildings of the ancient mansion have always been unwilling to go. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Mrs. Zhou replied to the old lady gently: "A few days before Yinglan came, when I passed by the garden, I accidentally thought that I hadn't been to the sporadic small building for a long time, so I wanted to see if Ya'er lacked something. ”
After listening to Mrs. Zhou's explanation, the old lady couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, and said approvingly: "This is good, although Ya'er likes to be quiet, but in the end it is too quiet, and you, as a mother, should care more about Ya'er." ”
Mrs. Zhou nodded and smiled, took a piece of jade paste cake from the celadon plate on the mahogany plum blossom table, and ate it naturally.
Mrs. Wang looked at Mrs. Zhou, couldn't help but smile, and said, "Sister-in-law loves to eat this jade paste cake, such a sweet thing, and I'm not afraid of eating bad teeth." ”
Mrs. Zhou was a little embarrassed. The old lady smiled, and Gu Ya also smiled slightly, and glanced at the jade paste cake intentionally or unintentionally.
When it was getting late, Gu Ya took the girl Xiaoqiu to walk back, and when she just walked to the rockery in the garden, she met Mrs. Zhou's henchman Zeng Mama. When Mama Zeng saw the Gu Ya gradually coming, she just glanced at Gu Ya, without the slightest etiquette at all.
She is Mrs. Zhou's nurse and Mrs. Zhou's confidant, and the old lady's health has been getting worse and worse recently, which means that Gu Ya's pillar in the ancient mansion is gradually unstable, and this Zeng Mama naturally looks down on Gu Ya.
Gu Ya also walked past Mama Zeng quietly, and when the two passed by, they only heard a crisp sound of "jingling", and looked down, but it was the plain silver hairpin on Mama Zeng's head that slipped to the ground, and the position where the hairpin fell was exactly at Xiaoqiu's feet.
"Shameless little hooves, where are the eyes! Do you want to knock my old bones apart?! Mama Zeng scolded Xiaoqiu angrily, and raised her hand to slap Xiaoqiu, who was scared and didn't dare to move.
In the final analysis, Gu Ya is also Miss Gufu, and the old lady also loves Gu Ya, this Zeng Mama does not fight Gu Ya, but wants to hit Gu Ya in front of Gu Ya, the so-called dog beating also depends on the owner, she obviously wants to give Gu Ya a heavy dismount.
"Mama Zeng." Gu Ya said lightly, her eyes swept lightly to Mama Zeng's face, faintly revealing some coldness, Mama Zeng was stunned by this cold look for a while, and the hand that was raised in the air stopped abruptly.
However, just for a moment, Mama Zeng withdrew her hand and smiled mockingly at Gu Ya: "What do you want from the third lady?" ”
There was arrogance in the ridicule, although she called Miss Three in her mouth, she didn't take Gu Ya seriously in her heart.
Gu Ya looked at the plain silver hairpin that Mama Zeng fell to the ground, and said lightly: "I am the person who hit you, if you want to hit me, you will hit me." ”
Mama Zeng was stunned, her face changed slightly, in the end, she was just a subordinate, even if she despised Gu Ya, how could she dare to hit the master? She glared at Xiaoqiu fiercely, Xiaoqiu was too frightened to speak, but hurriedly leaned down to pick up the plain silver hairpin for Mama Zeng, and handed the plain silver hairpin to Mama Zeng tremblingly.
Mama Zeng snorted coldly, snatched the hairpin from Xiaoqiu's hand, her movements were very rude, Gu Ya was angry in her heart, and when she was about to speak, a sweet and delicate voice sounded from behind them: "Mama Zeng, in front of the third young lady, why are you so rude?" ”
The three of them turned around in surprise, but saw that Gu Wanru came behind them with her girl Biyun at some point, and said to Mama Zeng with a slight reprimand.
Gu Wanru has always been gentle and demure, and she is the daughter of Gu Weiyong, she has a high status in the ancient mansion, and she is very kind to her subordinates on weekdays, but once she trains people, it is also very weighty. Mama Zeng saw that the person who came was Gu Wanru, and listening to Gu Wanru's tone as if she was helping this unstoppable young lady, Mama Zeng's face became a little ugly, so she had to smile at Gu Wanru and said: "The old slave is confused, don't be surprised by the second miss." ”
The subordinates who usually call themselves old slaves have a bit of the meaning of relying on the old and selling the old.
Gu Wanru frowned slightly, and said to Mama Zeng: "Mama Zeng, the old man is easy to be confused, but don't be too confused." Forget it this time, if there is a next time, I will tell my grandmother to see if you are a fool. ”
Today's ancient mansion is the most respected old lady, even if there is Mrs. Zhou's support, if the old lady is in trouble, Mrs. Zhou is afraid that she will not be able to protect this Zeng Mama. Gu Wanru's words obviously frightened Mama Zeng, Mama Zeng hurriedly admitted her mistake and begged for mercy, but Gu Wanru didn't pursue it anymore and let Mama Zeng go by herself.
Gu Ya on the side always watched this scene quietly, in fact, in this ancient mansion, Gu Wanru is a person who is not hostile to Gu Ya, Gu Ya has a little gratitude in her heart, and said, "Thank you, sister." ”
Gu Wanru smiled gently, her eyes were as gentle and beautiful as spring water, and she said kindly and friendlyly: "Ya'er, you are the third lady of the ancient mansion, don't let those subordinates be powerful." If you are idle and bored one day, go to my embroidered apricot hall to sit. ”
Gu Ya felt a trace of warmth in her heart, nodded, and said, "If my sister doesn't dislike it, Ya'er is naturally willing." ”
bypassed Gu Wanru, but saw that Biyun, the girl behind Gu Wanru, had a little doubt on her face and a trace of disdain. She probably didn't understand why she had to show peace with Gu Ya as Gu Wanru! After all, Gu Ya is the concubine and the eldest lord's most disgusted daughter, coupled with the scandal of fornication with a man three years ago, Gu Ya has become the most shameful young lady in the ancient mansion. Even if there is an old lady to protect her, where can the people below afford this young lady?
Gu Ya saw the blue cloud's expression in her eyes, but she didn't break it, she just smiled and talked to Gu Wanru for a while, and then took Xiaoqiu back to the sporadic Xiaozhu.
On this day, Gu Ya was painting in the side pavilion of the scattered small building, and the girl Xiaoqiu went to make tea for Gu Ya, and the sunlight outside was dazzling, and through the azure cicada wing curtain, it melted into a soft and broken wave. Gu Ya was concentrating on painting, when suddenly a few steady footsteps came from outside the house, and the sound seemed a little abrupt in this quiet place.
Gu Ya didn't care, just said that Xiaoqiu came, so she continued to paint by the window.
"Ah, this is a hibiscus flower?" The thick man's voice suddenly sounded from behind Gu Ya, Gu Ya was taken aback, and hurriedly looked back, only to see that the handsome Gu Feng was standing behind her at some point, and was admiring the Qingshui hibiscus picture on the quaint rice paper.
Gu Ya's always calm face showed a look of shock, she was a little suspicious of her eyes, and she couldn't believe it: "Second brother? ”
Gu Feng took his eyes off the Gu Ya painting, smiled at Gu Ya, and said, "What? Don't know me anymore? ”
Gu Ya came to her senses and said gently: "It's not that I don't know, it's just that I never thought that the second brother would suddenly appear here." ”
After that, he invited Gu Feng to sit down, and called Xiaoqiu again, and when Xiaoqiu entered the room and saw Gu Feng, he was also taken aback. Gu Ya told Xiaoqiu to make tea again, Gu Feng likes to drink Biluochun with a slight bitterness, and likes to eat crispy and soft snacks, just these scattered small buildings are stored, so let Xiaoqiu prepare.
Gu Feng looked at the room for a while, then smiled at Gu Ya and said, "You are quiet and elegant here. Strange Dao Yinglan likes your sporadic building very much. ”
Gu Ya smiled and said a few words, and inadvertently asked Gu Feng again: "I don't know what the second brother is here for today?" ”
Gu Feng picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip gently, and suddenly felt that the faint fragrance of tea was refreshing, in fact, the tea here is very delicious. After tasting another sip of tea, Gu Feng said, "Didn't you say that you wanted to come and sit here a few days ago?" Did you forget? ”
Gu Ya was slightly surprised, recalling that day in the apricot forest, Gu Feng did say that he wanted to come to the sporadic small building to sit, but Gu Ya only thought that he was casually talking, but he really didn't care, but Gu Feng really came to her sporadic small building. In my memory, none of the young masters of the Gu family have ever been to the sporadic small building. Recalling the events of that day, Gu Ya suddenly smiled lightly and said, "Second brother won't be because Yinglan praised the sporadic Xiaozhu a few words, so he intends to come to this sporadic Xiaozhu to see if it is worthy of the name, right?" ”
Gu Feng put down the tea cup in his hand, looked at the carved nanmu desk Gu Ya had just finished drawing the picture of Qingshui Hibiscus, he looked at the paulownia wood Jiaowei qin on the piano table, and said with a smile: "That's not it, I just want to come and take a walk." By the way, come and see you. Sometimes I wonder what this little building looks like, but now it seems that this is a really good place. ”
Saying that, Gu Feng approached Gu Ya again, and said in a low voice: "I forgot what you said that day, you can teach me again." ”
Seeing Gu Feng's mysterious appearance, Gu Ya couldn't help but be surprised, and when she heard Gu Feng say this, she was even more stunned, and asked with a little dazedness: "What words?" ”
Gu Feng suppressed his voice as if he was afraid of being heard by others, and said, "It's the Mu Hibiscus you said......
Wood Hibiscus ?!!!
Could it be that Gu Feng deliberately came to her scattered small building, just to learn the words praising Mu Furong? Gu Ya looked at Gu Feng even more stunned, when did the second brother become such a boring person? Besides, how could someone with such a bold personality as Gu Feng be so interested in these daughter's gadgets?
Probably feeling Gu Ya's incomprehensible gaze, Gu Feng seemed to be a little embarrassed, and coughed dryly twice, Gu Ya knew that Gu Feng was arrogant, and her stunned expression would naturally make Gu Feng think badly. So Gu Ya smiled first: "Ya'er understands, Ya'er also likes Mu Hibiscus." ”
After thinking about it, Gu Ya smiled again: "In that case, Ya'er drew a picture of Mu Hibiscus for the second brother, okay?" ”
When Gu Feng heard this, he clapped his hands and praised: "Good idea!" ”
Gu Feng was very interested, and actually personally gave Gu Ya to study ink, Gu Feng proudly regarded himself as a manly husband, and it was not good to do this kind of thing, but now he was so childish, which really made Gu Ya surprised and interesting, and had a lot of warmth in his heart for this second brother.
Although I don't know what the reason is, Gu Feng has a special preference for this wood hibiscus.
I don't know if this wood hibiscus has any special meaning for Gu Feng?
