Chapter 85: Gu Xiao's life experience

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Luo Ze is a smart person, he doesn't think that there must be something strange in his mother asking Gu Xiao's age for this reason. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Ze'er, do you remember that your uncle once had a daughter named Gu Xiao?"

Luo Ze looked at her in surprise, "Didn't my cousin pass away seven years ago?" ”

He remembered that when the Gu Mansion caught fire, he was already thirteen years old, and his uncle's youngest daughter was burned alive because she slept too soundly, and it had been seven years, and if his mother hadn't mentioned it, he really couldn't remember the cousin's name.

"I thought so at the time, but ...... Your aunt said that she was still carrying a jade bracelet on her hand, but there was nothing on the corpse, and we suspect that it was Youdong's corpse, not your cousin's. ”

Youdong was Gu Xiao's personal maid, and at that time, everyone thought that it was Youdong who colluded with others, so he fled after setting the fire.

But now that I think about it, I don't think it's possible, after all, Youdong and Gu Xiao have an excellent relationship, and the two are almost inseparable, so she has no time to collude with others.

The only possibility is that after that person captured Gu Xiao, he set fire to Gu's mansion.

"So, it's possible that my cousin is still alive?" Roze's eyes widened.

Gu Xiang nodded, "It's possible, all these years, your uncle and aunt have been looking for it in private, but unfortunately, it's been four years, but no one has been found!" ”

Thinking of her well-behaved and lovely little niece, Gu Xiang's heart was a little pantothenic.

"If you are still alive, why haven't you found it all these years?" Luo Ze was a little puzzled.

He remembered that seven years ago, his little cousin was already eight years old, right? Eight-year-olds should have a memory.

"This is also where everyone is confused, over the years, your grandmother has also been thinking about your little cousin, your uncle and aunt have thought about giving up the search, but your grandmother is stunned and refuses."

When Gu Xiang said this, she couldn't help but sigh lightly.

"Then does my mother think that Miss Gu may be a little cousin?"

Gu Xiang nodded, "Take a closer look, who do you think she looks like?" ”

Luo Ze was stunned, looking at Gu Xiao with a puzzled look, but saw that her eyebrows and eyes were delicate, her lips were red and her teeth were white, and she had a shallow smile on her little face.

Luo Ze was startled, at first glance he couldn't see it, but after a closer look, he found that she was somewhat similar to his aunt.

"It's really a bit like my aunt!"

Gu Xiang nodded, "This is also where I suspect, she may be your cousin, it's just ...... She said that she is sixteen years old, and Xiao'er is only fifteen years old this year, why is this? ”

With similar faces and the same name, how can there be such a coincidence in the world?

Gu Xiang's heart was a little anxious, she desperately wanted to know if this Gu Xiao was the same Gu Xiao.

You must know that over the years, her eldest brother and sister-in-law have exhausted their stomachs and hearts in order to find their daughter, and if they can find their little niece, they can not only round the mother's lifetime, but also make the eldest brother and sister-in-law feel at ease.

"Mother, don't worry, anyway, Miss Gu will stay in the Tang Mansion for the time being, if there is anything to ask, it's not too late to ask when the guests leave."

Gu Xiang nodded, but her eyes always moved uncontrollably towards Gu Xiao's body.

Tang Jing's eyes looked at their mother and son thoughtfully, as if he had thought of something, and his eyes flashed with surprise.

"This is the palace's favorite silver hairpin, which was given to me by my mother before I got married, and the palace will give it to you today."

Tang Wan looked at the only wooden hairpin on Gu Xiao's head, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

In her opinion, it is good for women to dress plainly, but not too plain, after all, women are pleasing to themselves, and it is good to dress up usually.

Gu Xiao didn't expect that Tang Wan would give her such a valuable thing, and she couldn't help but be a little surprised.

But in Tang Wan's eyes, her expression seemed to be flattered.

"Don't be too polite, after all, we will become a family sooner or later, if you still like others, change tomorrow, you will enter the palace with your mother to choose, I have many more, which I have never wore."

Gu Xiao was blushed by the sentence that it was a family sooner or later.

"Take it, what the mother gave you, you can take it." The eldest lady patted the back of her hand and smiled.

"Thank you, concubine!"

Gu Xiao stretched out her hand to take the silver hairpin and bowed her head respectfully towards Tang Wan.

"What's wrong with the fourth princess? Why is your face so ugly? Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to take a look? ”

Seeing that the fourth princess's face was getting paler and paler, Tang Wan pretended to look at her worriedly.

As one of the concubines in the harem, how could she not know the bad things that Xiao Ting had done over the years?

Her relationship with the queen is not very good, and Xiao Ting was raised by the queen's mother, so her heart is still more towards Gu Xiao.

Who in this capital doesn't know that the fourth princess has always had a soft spot for Jing'er?

Just because she rarely leaves the palace doesn't mean she's lonely.

"Thank you for your kindness, Ting'er is fine, it's just that the wind blew last night, and she caught a little cold."

Xiao Ting hung her head slightly, removing the deep hatred in her eyes.

Concubine Wan knew her intentions for Tang Jing, but she deliberately talked to Gu Xiao in front of her, isn't this tantamount to ripping out her heart?

"Oh? The fourth princess is sick? It is better to consult the imperial doctor as soon as possible to avoid the aggravation of the condition. ”

Xiao Ting's hand clenched, and said with a reluctant smile: "Thank you for your kindness, Ting'er understands it!" The imperial doctor has already seen it this morning, and he only said that if he takes two patches of medicine, he will be all right, so he won't trouble his mother! ”

Tang Wan pretended to believe it and nodded, and said in a very gentle tone: "That's fine, the fourth princess must not hold on, you must pay more attention to rest." ”

The corners of Gu Xiao's mouth twitched slightly when she heard this, and she only felt that the conversation between the two people was full of a strong smell of gunpowder.

Xiao Ting smiled dryly and nodded, "Thank you for your concern!" ”

She knew that Tang Wan's words had a bit of a sense of rushing customers, but for Tang Jing's sake, she pretended not to know.

Gu Xiao felt the various eyes coming from all around, and her brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

If the fourth princess is full of hostility towards herself because of Tang Jing, she should look at herself twice.

It's just that...... Why do the ladies and young masters of the Luo family always look at themselves from time to time?

If you are curious, Luo Ze has seen her before, so she shouldn't be so curious about herself, why is he even looking at himself with inquiring eyes?

There was some silence in the room for a while, except for the occasional conversation between the prime minister's wife and the old lady, and the others were quietly accompanying them.

Tang Jing and Xiao Chen and other gentlemen, after sitting for a while, got up and went to the front hall to accompany the guests.

As soon as Tang Jing left, the fourth princess naturally couldn't sit still, and she left in a hurry after asking Linglong and Tang Wan for a salute.

Tang Wan's eyes flashed with an almost inaudible mockery, this fourth princess, she has done it so obviously, it is a little difficult for people not to know her thoughts!
