Volume II, Chapter 1, The Little Girl in the Grass
The sun was high in the sky, the sky was cloudless, and there was no shade on the ground near the trees, but in the distance there were patches of cicadas chirping. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
In such weather, rushing to the sun has only one word:
Hot.
is wearing sackcloth and hats, and still can't stop the rolling heat wave. On this June day, there is such a convoy on the way.
The team is not short, and there are many two-wheeled vehicles in the team, not to mention, there are many people who follow the team with a fierce face. Those with insight can see at a glance that many of the retinues of this team are elite soldiers in a hundred battles.
After An's was imprisoned, although Gu Shan was pressing, Gu Hai was indulging in sadness. At first, he drank every day, and after being whipped by Gu Shan with a whip, he stopped drinking, but he was annoyed with Gu Qiqi Niang, thinking that this granddaughter had harmed An's family. There is nothing wrong with the head of the Gu family being Gu Shan, but Gu Shan is already old, Gu Hai is the head of the Gu family, Gu Hai so obviously expressed his disgust for Gu Qiqi Niang, it is conceivable how the people below will react.
Even if the Song family, as in the past, still treats Gu Qiqiniang with the attitude of a grandmother to her granddaughter, but the Song family is Gu Hai's wife after all, and she can't resist Gu Hai, and there are all kinds of rumors, saying that someone in the Gu family is calculating the title that Gu Ning earned, etc., etc., etc., etc., but they put the sons and daughters-in-law of the Song family and the Song family on the stove to roast.
The rumors intensified, making the Song family take Xiao An's and Xiao An's children lightly.
At this time, Su's eldest daughter Gu Jue was retired back to her parents' house, which made Su also angry with Xiao An and Gu Qiqiniang, thinking that her daughter was affected.
Under such circumstances, the Song family had to go back to the old lady Gu Shan, and asked Xiao An to leave Jingshi with his children and mourn for Gu Ning's tomb.
The origin of the Gu family is in Nanxi, how can it be that after Gu Shan ran away, the Nanxi Gu family expelled Gu Shan's father and son, and later Gu Shan's family developed, Nanxi Gu family intended to reach a reconciliation with Gu Shan, but they didn't want Gu Shan to be a hard man, so they made their own meritorious fields into cemeteries and sacrificial fields, and moved the graves of their parents' original matches.
This field of meritorious heroes has become the ancestral tomb and sacrificial field of the Xiuguo Mansion. Gu Ning was buried here after his death, and several of Gu Hai's nephews and nephews were also buried here, and even the children of the Gu family who died young, although they did not have a tombstone, were wrapped in red satin and buried under the pine tree here.
Gu Hai saw that his granddaughter was not pleasing to the eye, and it was impossible for the Gu family to do anything to Gu Qiqiniang on this cusp, so letting Gu Qiqiniang leave Jingshi and Shouxiao became the only choice.
Considering Gu Qiqiniang's age, and considering those rumors, the Song family simply asked Xiao An's and Gu Yu to follow.
This also led to a rather unsuitable atmosphere in the team.
Like Gu Qiqi Niang, Xiao An's has not recovered since she fell ill, and the whole person is weird. And Gu Yu is stupid, thinking that it is her sister's fault that her mother can't cultivate her body in Beijing but has to rush to the border in June, so these days, whether it is Xiao An's side or Gu Yu, no one has sent the girl below to greet Gu Qiqi Niang in this carriage.
As for the young Gu Jin, she naturally followed her grandmother to occupy a carriage alone. He was young, and his grandmother was afraid that he would say goodbye to the sun, which also caused Gu Qiqiniang's carriage to be extremely deserted.
Fortunately, Gu Qiqi Niang herself is also sick and crooked, and the time she is awake in a day is limited, which makes several of his girls really relieved.
Even Little Lotus said, "Sister Yuye, I don't know if the girl is good or bad like this." ”
"Huh? How so? ”
Little Lotus said: "If the girl is in good health, I will naturally be happy." But grandma and Lang Jun are like this, I really don't know how to talk to the girl...... Girl, girl, it's okay to do this, save the torture of the day, and save ......"
When Yuye heard this, he also sighed.
Yes, if the girl is awake and sees her grandmother and Lang Jun ignoring them, wouldn't she be sad? It's okay to be sick like this, at least these girls can talk about it.
At this time, there was a gentle knocking sound from outside the carriage, and Jin Ban'er immediately lifted the curtains, who was not Jin Ban'er's brother outside?
I saw Shan Feng say to his sister: "Sister, it's almost noon, we need to set up camp." ”
Jin Ban'er was taken aback: "But what happened?" ”
Shan Feng hurriedly said, "No, no, it's nothing." It's just that the grandfathers said that the day is too big, and if you continue to walk against the sun, not only people, but also cows, horses, and mules will not be able to stand it. ”
"I see. But do you need us to get off the carriage? ”
"No, no. When the time comes, we'll just lift the carriage down, and it's not a waste of anything. It's just that we can't stay on the official road, and it won't be good if it hinders the stagecoach that transmits military affairs. ”
Shan Feng has never been a sharp-toothed person, and he blushed after saying so many words.
Instead, it was Jin Ban'er, who couldn't help but complain: "It's really, the weather in June." Yesterday we were on our way in the heavy rain! It's so hot today. ”
Shan Feng said: "So, few people will rush in June." ”
Jin Ban'er hurriedly said, "Brother, are you hot?" I still have mung bean soup here. ”
"No, no. When I got back and settled down, I asked my sister again. ”
"It's fine."
Shan Feng soon left. Yuye and Jin Ban'er only felt that the carriage had only stopped on the side of the road for about two quarters of an hour, and someone lifted the carriage and walked towards the grass on the side of the official road.
Although it is said to be a weed, this weed is very high, and although it has not yet reached the point of covering a person's head, it is almost up to a person's shoulder. Those strong men used knives to cut a way while carrying Gu Qiqiniang's carriage forward. At this time, someone slipped, and the jade leaves and golden petals in the carriage rolled into a ball, and even the narcissus, lily, and little lotus who got out of the carriage and followed behind were startled.
Narcissus had sharp eyes, and at a glance he saw a person lying on the ground in front of him, and immediately screamed.
The steward Lin Zhiyang heard the exclamation, and saw Gu Qiqiniang's carriage crooked, and thought that the person carrying the carriage was careless, but when he heard the exclamation and saw the narcissus, he looked forward along the hand of the narcissus, and was also startled!
There was really a person lying there, still a little girl, looking at her size, about the same as the two narcissus lilies, but wearing a gold ring on her head, she shouldn't be an ordinary child.
Steward Lin hurriedly called the servant woman to pick up the child.
