In the main hall, Gu Yuan had already thanked Mrs. Xie and the ladies for their praise, and returned to her couch to sit down, she ignored the various glances on the opposite table, but just glanced coldly at Gu Yao, who was sitting next to Li Huiniang, who was smiling gently, and lowered her head to eat the fragrant tea sent by the maid, with a calm expression.

Gu Yao glanced at her from a distance, there was a hint of sarcasm on her gentle smiling face, and when she became the wife of the Xie family, Gu Yuan was just the dust under her feet, what a jade true female crown, an unknown prophet, was just a joke.

The old lady of the Xie family was talking to several ladies of the family, I don't know who mentioned some recent new things in Jiankang City, and when it came to the porridge shop outside Jiankang City, the old lady Xie was very emotional: "...... If there is turmoil today, the day is not safe, the towns in the north are disturbed by the Hu people from time to time, and there are countless displaced people, I also thought about helping these displaced people before, and I have opened a few porridge shops to give porridge, but it is also because of the old age, and it is to seek the Buddha to the Tao to have such a thought, I never thought that there are still people who will do this, I don't know who it is? ”

The lady of the family next to her covered her mouth and smiled: "Old lady, this is really a coincidence, the soup kitchen is also at today's table." ”

Old Madam Xie was very surprised, and said with a smile: "There is such a thing, I don't know which lady it is?" ”

The lady smiled and shook her head: "It's not a lady, it's a sister-in-law who hasn't left the cabinet, isn't it the second sister-in-law of the Gu family in Wu County." ”

Old Madam Xie raised her eyes and looked at the seat: "Which one is the sister-in-law of the Gu family of Wu County, come out and let me take a look." ”

Gu Yao blushed slightly, stood up and walked to the main seat of Old Madam Xie, Ying Ying bowed: "Gu's A-Yao has seen Old Madame. Although he was shy, he was still generous, so that all the ladies looked at it and bowed slightly, which was very approving.

Old Madam Xie took a closer look at Gu Yao, and saw that although her appearance was not as beautiful as Lu Xianniang, she was also elegant and dignified, and her gestures also had the nobility and virtue that a sister-in-law of a family should have. She smiled and asked Gu Yao: "Seeing that you are young, why do you think about soup kitchens and homeless people?" ”

Gu Yao smiled softly and gently: "A few days ago, Ah Yao went out of the city to make incense, and saw countless homeless people, hungry and cold, and many young children who could not eat, I was very sad. So Ah Yao went back and thought about it for a long time, and then decided to set up a porridge shop to give porridge, not for the sake of fame, but just to be able to do her best to relieve the suffering of the displaced people. After that, she stood quietly in front of Mrs. Xie, and she never had the slightest delicate look.

The look of approval on Old Madam Xie's face became even stronger, she had seen many sisters-in-law, but they were either shy and twisted, or they didn't have too many brains, and they were always not as good as hers, Gu Yao was one of the few who could make her look at them.

The lady on the side interjected again: "I'm afraid the old lady doesn't know, this second sister-in-law Gu is still a talented girl, and the song "Donglou Fu" she composed has been spread all over Jiankang, and it is said that she is outstanding in writing, and she is praised for teaching those famous and talented people. ”

Gu Yao had a faint smile on her face at this time, and bowed to the lady and said, "Thank you Madame for complimenting, ********** work, don't dare to boast." ”

Old Madam Xie glanced at Gu Yao several times, smiled and nodded: "You go back and sit down." Gu Yao retreated to the table at this time, but joy welled up from the bottom of her heart, she knew that she had done what she had to do. She glanced at Li Huiniang, who was still at a loss beside her, as long as the last obstacle was removed, she had hope to get what she wanted.

Just when the ladies praised Gu Yao, a maid squeezed out behind Gu Yao and said in a panic: "Second sister-in-law, it's not good, it's not good!" The third sister-in-law has an accident at the west side door! Her voice was not loud, but it reached the ears of all who sat at the table, and all eyes were on it.

Gu Yao's face changed instantly, she had just received a different look from Mrs. Xie, and Gu Yun had an accident on this side, this stupid maid didn't know to tell her quietly, and reported it to her with such fanfare, and now everyone in the hall heard it.

She held back her anger and said to the maid: "Something happened, it's just that she got lost and didn't know that she came back, so why don't you go and take her back." But there was a fierce look in his eyes, and he swept over the maid.

It's just that the maid was completely ignorant, and she didn't retreat, and was still saying: "The second sister-in-law should go over and take a look, the third sister-in-law was entangled there, saying that it was ...... said that it was the brother of Liao Wu, who was killed earlier, and begged the third sister-in-law to spare his life! ”

Her words were unclear, but everyone heard them, and she knew that the third sister-in-law of the Gu family was entangled by a subordinate and wanted his life, so they all talked about it for a while, looking at Gu Yao with different eyes.

Where did Gu Yao think that there would be such a thing, her face turned red, and she scolded: "What nonsense, why don't you go and take the third sister-in-law back, she just goes out and gets lost because she is not in good health!" ”

The servant woman of the Xie Mansion also arrived at the main hall at this time, and quickly came in and bowed down in front of the old lady Xie and the ladies: "Old lady, there was an accident on the corridor on the west side of the gate, and the third sister-in-law of the Gu family in Wujun had a quarrel with a servant there, and the servant begged the third sister-in-law Gu to spare her life, saying that the third sister-in-law was going to take her life, and said...... "She can't say it anymore, after all, the Xie family's family Qingliu has not had such a scandal for many years."

Old Madam Xie frowned, she didn't expect that she had just been optimistic about this second sister-in-law of the Gu family, and her sister would make trouble, her voice was full of majesty: "What to say?" ”

The servant didn't dare to say more, but said, "The third sister-in-law has been invited, and even the servant has been brought." ”

Old Madam Xie was annoyed that the third sister-in-law of the Gu family had caused trouble at her birthday banquet, and said coldly: "Bring it in." ”

The man who was trembling with tears and snot was brought in, he knelt in front of Mrs. Xie, kowtowed to everyone in the hall, and cried miserably: "...... My eldest brother is Gu Da Langjun's attendant, some time ago from Wu County followed Da Lang Jun to Jiankang, who knew that the third sister-in-law sent the news, asked my eldest brother to go to the camp at night for a private meeting, but my eldest brother went to the wrong camp tent at night, and actually broke into the camp tent of His Royal Highness the Prince's concubine, and was beaten to death by His Royal Highness the Prince, and the second sister-in-law of the Gu family ordered someone to kill all the old and young of my family, I happened to escape, and I didn't dare to stay in Wu County, and quietly came to Jiankang to take care of the flowers and trees for the servants. ”

"It's just that I was taking care of the flowers and trees in the corridor of the west side door, and I happened to bump into this third sister-in-law Gu, she recognized me, and said that she wanted to kill me, so I had to beg her to spare my life......" The man cried mournfully, so pitiful, "I knelt and kowtowed to the third sister-in-law, but accidentally picked up a piece of paper that fell from her, and when she saw that I saw it, she was about to call someone to take my life......" He spread it out in his hand, and there was a small piece of paper in his hand, and the servant woman took the piece of paper from his hand and sent it to Mrs. Xie.

Gu Yao didn't know what was written on the piece of paper, but she had clearly seen everyone's eyes, no matter whether what this man said was true or not, it was extremely embarrassing to be involved with such a person, not to mention that Gu Yun walked over by herself, I am afraid that there is a big mystery in this. Gu Yao watched Old Madam Xie lower her head to look at the piece of paper, and then raised her head The indifference and contempt look was clearly engraved in her heart, the sleeves she had been holding tightly in her hands suddenly loosened, and her heart was desolate, she knew that something really happened this time.
