Chapter 25: Gifts

Back at Gu's mansion, Gu Yuan instructed Ah Luo and Chen Yuan to close the door to thank the guests, no matter who handed over the post, they should not. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoAfter the night banquet in the southern suburbs, I am afraid that she has already attracted the attention of others, and she doesn't want to cause other trouble until the dust settles on the gamble with the prince. It's a pity that it backfired, and she still couldn't avoid the trouble.

"Sister-in-law," Ah Luo came in with a long brocade box, "someone sent a box. ”

Chen Yuan put down the folded dress and wiped her hands: "What is it?" Who sent it? ”

Gu Yuan was a little puzzled, although she attracted attention at the banquet in the southern suburbs, but after all, her status was low, who would suddenly give her a gift? She got up and walked over to her, untied the straps of the brocade box, and slowly opened it, and there was a ...... inside A handful of silk paulownia.

The body made of black and shiny sycamore wood, the seven strings are shiny and shiny, Gu Yuan couldn't help but reach out and stroke the strings, and the clear sound of the piano sounded instantly, this is a good silk paulownia.

Who will it be? Who's going to send this handful?

"Didn't the one who sent it say who it was?" Gu Yuan frowned.

Ah Luo shook his head: "I heard from the people in the house, the person who sent it put down the brocade box and said it was for my sister-in-law and left." Gu Yuan had to let Ah Luo carry Sitong to the room and put it down.

"Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan......" Before Gu Yuan entered the door, he heard someone outside the courtyard door say loudly, "Come out quickly!" ”

More than one person came, and the voices of several young women said, "This is the courtyard where the orphan girl lives?" Ah Yun, your house is very good to this orphan girl. ”

"Then sister-in-law is in this yard? Why won't she go out to us? ”

A group of people came into the courtyard with their maids and maids, talking and laughing wantonly, until they saw Gu Yuan standing in front of the door, and they all gathered around.

The leader was Gu Yun, who came forward with an ugly face: "You are in the courtyard, why don't you take the post and go out?" It's clearly intentional to fall on our faces! ”

Gu Yao hurriedly grabbed her, smiled and said to Gu Yuan: "Ah Yuan, don't worry, we really want to invite you to go out to watch the dragon boat race together." ”

Gu Yuan looked at the people, the sisters-in-law of several major families in Wu County are here, but I don't see Jiankang's Lu Xianniang and Li Huiniang, today is Duanyang, and it is the most lively dragon boat race in Wu County, I am afraid that the prince and his party will go, she has no intention of appearing again at this time.

was about to refuse, but he heard Zhu Jing say with a smile on the side: "Ah Yao, could it be that you two sisters still don't move this sister-in-law Yuan, it's really a big shelf!" ”

Gu Yun was even more annoyed, and glared at Gu Yuan fiercely: "Why don't you come with us quickly!" "A reluctant look.

"Ah Yuan, you come with us, this dragon boat race is only once a year, it is very lively and spectacular, it's a pity not to go and see it." Gu Yao persuaded softly.

Zhu Jing looked at Gu Yuan's small courtyard and wing room wantonly, and suddenly saw the brocade box that Ah Luo hadn't had time to carry into the room: "What is that, could it be that someone gave a gift to this orphan girl?" She raised her chin, tapped the brocade box, and instructed the maidservant, "Take it with me!" ”

The two sisters-in-law of the Zhang family covered their mouths with a fan and smiled: "Isn't it because she looks at the poor sour she wears on weekdays, so she specially sent some wealth and silk to her, so as not to lose the face of our Wujun family." Gu Yun and Gu Yao's faces were a little unbearable, they gritted their teeth and endured not saying anything, but they also looked at the brocade box.

Ah Luo watched Zhu Jing's maid snatch the brocade box and send it to Zhu Jing's people, the brocade box was opened, and when she saw that it was a good silk tong, several sisters-in-law were stunned.

"Who sent this?" Zhu Jing was a little bored, "I thought it was something interesting." "Gu Yuan is good at piano skills, and it is not strange that someone sent Sitong to her.

Gu Yao looked at the handful of silk tong carefully, and said softly: "This silk tong is very exquisite in workmanship, and the wood is of high quality, I am afraid that it is very precious and rare, but I don't know who is so willing to give it to Ah Yuan." ”

Gu Yunsu was not used to Gu Yuan, and she was even more tired of hearing Gu Yao say that the silk tong was precious, and said angrily: "It's just that the silk tong is also worth talking about, let's go, don't delay the time to see the dragon boat." Then he turned and took the maid and went away.

Looking at the situation, I'm afraid that it wasn't these sisters-in-law who asked him to watch the dragon boat, but someone else asked them to come. Gu Yuan had no choice but to order Chen Yuan and A Luo to stay in the courtyard and go with them.

Sure enough, in front of the gate of Gu's mansion, there were already several cars waiting, and the one headed by was clearly the car of Jiankang Lu's family, Lu Xianniang was opening the curtain, looked at Gu Yuan who was following behind the sisters-in-law, and smiled slightly: "Since people are here, let's go." Then he lowered the curtain and looked at the crowd again.

Gu Yao took Gu Yuan's hand: "Ah Yuan, let's ride with us." ”

Gu Yuan ignored Gu Yun's murderous eyes, and said with a smile: "No need." "I owe a debt, and walk to the donkey cart I usually sit in.

Gu Yun snorted coldly and pulled Gu Yao over: "What are you close to her, but you're just a slut pretending to be a ghost!" ”

Gu Yao's face turned cold, and she said in a low voice, "I just have something to ask her." "The craftsmanship of that silk tong is not like it was made by Wu Jun, and it is only afraid that it was brought by Jiankang.
