Chapter 22: Sisterhood I
Mrs. Zhou's illness still did not improve, and she lay in bed all day, her face looking extremely haggard. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Gu Wanru personally served Mrs. Zhou and took medicine, Mrs. Zhou leaned weakly in front of the bed railing, looked at Gu Wanru who was collecting the medicine bowl, and asked, "Wanru, did the stinky girl move?" ”
Gu Wanru knew that the "stinky girl" that Mrs. Zhou said was Gu Ya, and Mrs. Zhou often called Gu Ya a stinky girl in front of her, so Gu Wanru was not surprised, she just said gently: "Mother, Daddy has locked Ya'er in the firewood room." ”
After a pause, Gu Wanru hesitated for a moment and said to Mrs. Zhou, "Mother...... You...... Are you wrong about your third sister? She ......"
Before she finished speaking, she was forced back by Mrs. Zhou's vicious gaze, Gu Wanru lowered her head, and didn't dare to look at Mrs. Zhou like a child who had done something wrong. Mrs. Zhou hated that iron could not become steel, poked Gu Wanru's head, and said angrily: "Wanru! You are my daughter! Why do you keep turning your arms out?! What's that quaint thing?! You actually told her to go to your embroidered apricot hall?! And help her talk all day?! What the hell is going on in your head?! ”
Gu Wanru was reprimanded by Mrs. Zhou like this, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to speak. Mrs. Zhou was really angry and pitiful when she saw Gu Wanru like this, Gu Wanru bit her lip lightly, looked out of the door, and saw that there was no one outside, so she regretted it: "Mother, you know, what happened three years ago was all because of me, you obviously promised me, but you ...... Where do I have the face to see the third sister now, mother, why are you ...... Why do you want to target the third sister everywhere? ”
Mrs. Zhou's face sank, and she said coldly: "That's because she is wrong, she is only a little older, and she secretly interacts with foreign men, which is worth it!" ”
Gu Wanru's voice was filled with tears, and she said, "But, mother, you didn't say that at the beginning......
"Enough!" Xu was sick, Mrs. Zhou's voice was not loud, but it was very stern, so scared that Gu Wanru didn't dare to say anything, only silently shed tears, Mrs. Zhou looked at Gu Wanru like this, in the end, she was her own daughter, how could she not cherish it, so Mrs. Zhou's voice also softened, and sighed: "Forget it, forget it, I can't count on you anything, as long as Brother Nan is out, I will rest assured." Now I'll find you a good family affair first. You have such a gentle temperament, if you were married to that Yuwen Xi Chan in the first place, it would be a good thing. ”

After the news of Mrs. Zhou's illness was transferred to the Runan Palace, Gu Shuru was worried about Mrs. Zhou's illness, so she hurriedly rushed from the palace to visit Mrs. Zhou.
Gu Shuru looked at Mrs. Zhou when she was sick in bed, her face was a little worried, and her eyes were red, and Mrs. Zhou asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" I was fine a few days ago, but why didn't I see him for a few days, and I became sick like this? ”
Gu Shuru helped Mrs. Zhou sit up, and asked with concern, at this time Xiurong walked in with the medicine, Gu Shuru saw this, took Xiurong's medicine, and mixed the medicine in the bowl spoonful, and after the medicine cooled down, she slowly fed it to Mrs. Zhou.
Speaking of Mrs. Zhou's illness, Mrs. Zhou gritted her teeth and said, "It's not Gu Yan's little hooves!" I don't know what means she used! ”
Gu Shuru was taken aback, quaint and elegant...... She didn't react for a while, and after thinking for a while, she suddenly remembered that it was the third sister she saw in the apricot forest...... If I'm not mistaken, Yuwen Xiyu has noticed that sister a little......
Mrs. Zhou told Gu Shuru about the Qingming apricot blossom rain that Gu Ya said in the apricot forest, and then said, "It's not! I said that she was so dignified how she mentioned the girl who had been dead for three years for no reason, and said that it would rain on the Qingming Festival, and my illness did not come early or late, but I couldn't get out of bed on the Qingming Festival, you said that it wasn't the ghost of the quaint little hoof, what was going on! ”
Mrs. Zhou was weak from the bottom of the illness, and she gasped badly when she said these words, Gu Shuru was even more annoyed when she heard this, she didn't expect that this quaint girl was so bold that she dared to plot against her mother! Hearing that Mrs. Zhou's face was haggard, her eyes seemed to be tired, and she was very worried in her heart.
Mrs. Zhou rested for a while before she said to Gu Shuru, "What about you?" Did you lose your temper with your aunt? ”
Gu Shuru's face changed slightly, and she said as if to hide it: "Mother, don't mention this matter again." ”
Mrs. Zhou sighed and said, "How can I not mention it? Now that little hoof is very likely to have taken a fancy to the power of the Runan Palace. Now the old lady hurts Gu Ya like an eyeball, I heard that for this quaint thing is still unhappy with the master, if you have a temper with the eldest aunt, be careful to give that little hoof a loophole! When the time comes, you won't be able to cry! ”
Gu Shuru didn't feel anything in her heart, but when she heard Mrs. Zhou say this, she felt aggrieved and annoyed in her heart, so she had to keep her mouth shut. After talking to Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou rested, and asked Mama Zeng about Mrs. Zhou's condition in private, and Mama Zeng answered them one by one. In the end, Gu Shuru secretly asked about the quaint thing, and when she mentioned this quaint, this Mama Zeng also held back a bad breath, and said that Gu Ya is not here, not there, how to go against Mrs. Zhou, and how to be angry with Mrs. Zhou......
This Gu Shuru has been pampered since she was a child, and she gave Mama Zeng such an irritation, and she didn't get angry, and asked Mama Zeng where Guya was, and Mama Zeng said that Guya was locked up. Gu Shuru was so angry that she immediately went to Gu Ya to settle accounts, Zeng Mama said that Gu Weiyong had been ordered, and no one was allowed to see Gu Ya, persuading Gu Shuru for a long time, Gu Shuru also understood Gu Weiyong's temper, thinking of Gu Weiyong's usual strictness, Gu Shuru was still a little scared, and she knew that her father, Gu Weiyong, the general of the Yu Dynasty, was in a position of power, and the king of Runan would still be jealous of him, even if her husband Yuwen Xi recited, he would not dare to go against Gu Weiyong's intentions.
Now I can only endure that anger for the time being, and if I can't do it, I will go to my husband Yuwen Xiyu for help. Although sometimes he has a temper with Yuwen Xiyue, but the two are husband and wife in the end, Yuwen Xiyu will not care about this matter.
Leaving Mrs. Zhou's room, Gu Shuru wanted to find Gu Wanru, Gu Wanru was about to wipe her tears in the embroidery room, listening to the girl coming to report that Gu Shuru was coming, Gu Wanru hurriedly wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and when she was wiping her tears, Gu Shuru walked in with the girl Caiyun and Gu Wanru's girl Biyun.
Gu Shuru pretended to be angry, both angry and quaint and arrogant, and a little annoyed by Gu Wanru's incompetence, but as soon as she saw Gu Wanru's red eyes crying, no matter how much anger she had, after sending the girl out, Gu Shuru walked to Gu Wanru and sat down, took Gu Wanru's hand and said affectionately: "Wanru, I know you are worried about your mother, but crying is not a solution." ”
Gu Wanru listened to Gu Shuru's comfort, and her heart felt even more sour, and the tears that had just stopped suddenly rolled out of her eyes like a flood in the embankment. Speaking of the daughters in this ancient mansion, they are all relatively strong, but only this Gu Wanru is born with a soft and weak appearance, which is really strange in this door.
Although that quaint looks as gentle as water, but a person who has endured loneliness and loneliness for more than ten years, and continues to live for three years after suffering a painful experience, the strength in his bones is unimaginable.
People who survive like that are terrible when you think about it.
Gu Shuru also took pity on her sister, took out her own handkerchief and wiped the tears on Gu Wanru's face, and said with relief: "Okay, okay, Wanru, don't cry, everything will be done." ”
Gu Wanru sobbed "um", and Gu Shuru comforted Gu Wanru for a while, before Gu Wanru calmed down.
Gu Shuru looked at Gu Wanru, who was crying and stopped, couldn't help sighing, and said, "Wanru, you have really been spoiled since you were a child and don't think about things." Now in your own house, you have a mother and I love you, and you are a young lady, such an identity is still a young lady who is so angry that she cries and cries, if you marry out in someone else's house in the future, how can you fight the people of the husband's family? How do you secure your status? Unless you marry a man with a very good temperament or love you very much, you will suffer sooner or later. ”
Gu Wanru looked at Gu Shuru and felt uncomfortable in her heart, she lowered her head and muttered, "I...... I...... Why fight? We all live together and are harmonious, what's so bad? Why...... Why fight to the death...... Third Sister...... I didn't want to compare with her. ”
Gu Shuru listened to Gu Wanru's words, she was angry and funny, poked her head lightly with pity, and said, "That's your idea, do you know what makes people's hearts unpredictable?" Do you know what involuntary means? If you don't want to fight, it doesn't mean that others don't want to, if you want to be harmonious, then just cut your sister-in-law, a woman from a big family like us must have some means in the house, otherwise how to gain a foothold in the future? ”
Gu Wanru seemed to disagree with Gu Shuru's opinion, but she didn't dare to refute it.
Gu Shuru patted Gu Wanru's shoulder and sighed: "You are really worrying like this, you are not young anymore, have your father and mother mentioned your marriage?" ”
Gu Wanru is a woman who has not left the cabinet, hearing the word marriage, two red clouds floated on her face, Gu Shuru thought about it, and said: "Actually, I have a candidate, that is, the younger brother Xi Mo, who is very handsome, very dashing, and has a good temperament, but he is lazy and has no enterprising spirit, which is a pity." But after all, it is the son of the king's grandson, and according to the national rules of the Yu Dynasty, this Ximo will also be crowned the king of the county in the future. If you marry, there is nothing wrong with you. I thought about it, you are not suitable for entering the palace, but this Ximo is very suitable for your indisputable temperament. ”
Gu Wanru blushed and said, "Sister, now that my mother is still sick, how can we discuss these things?" ”
Speaking of Mrs. Zhou's illness, Gu Shuru's face also became solemn, and she said some words to Gu Wanru before leaving here in a hurry.
