After busy bringing the meal to the table early in the morning, Xi Mo saw Gu Beijun walk in unhurriedly. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Beijun, look at Xi Mo, get up early in the morning to cook, I heard her say that you are still sleeping, are you tired these days?"
Shen Pingting looked at her son with a doting face, while Gu Beijun looked at Xi Mo with sharp eyes.
Xi Mo lowered his head, bowed his head, bowed his head, and did not speak.
After eating, Gu Beijun and Gu Jin discussed things together, while Xi Mo walked around the palace alone.
The palace is very bold, Xi Mo has lived here alone for five days before, and he is naturally familiar with it.
A few people came from afar, Xi Mo looked at it sharply, and whispered to Chunye Xiahua:
"The woman in the middle is Aunt Fan, who is the one next to her..."
In those five days, she knew almost all the people in the palace, and this Aunt Fan was Gu Jin's side room, and she was one of the little wives.
"That's the second young master, Gu Nanyi, the only son of the second lady, one year younger than the lord, and Ke Ye should be the same age."
Xi Mo looked at the man who came from afar, and there were two words in his mind: concubine.
In ancient times, the distinction between concubines and concubines was particularly serious, and the status of concubines and concubines was very important, and in comparison, concubines and concubines were more like children who were not loved, they were not valued, at best, they were at the age of marriage to get some money to go out and set up their own doors, and the eldest son was a heavy responsibility since he was a child, and was regarded by his father as a leader who continued the prosperity of the family.
Shuzi, he should be an extremely inferior person. Xi Mo thought so, and gradually approached Aunt Fan and Gu Nanyi.
"Aunt Fan."
Xi Mo nodded slightly.
When she first married into the palace, she learned the rules, Aunt Fan is a partial house, she is the young lady of the palace, she understands that her status is higher than Aunt Fan, but she is not the kind of domineering person, she understands the politeness of respecting the old and loving the young, and every time she sees Aunt Fan, she will always nod her head.
"The young lady is back, I heard about it yesterday."
Aunt Fan smiled at Xi Mo and quietly pulled the corner of her son's clothes next to her.
"This is the second young master."
Xi Mo saw Gu Nanyi's reluctant appearance, and he didn't mind, so he took the initiative to call out.
"Sister-in-law."
Gu Nanyi nodded, although he was a concubine, he was also the person who was written into the family tree by the Gu family, so there was no need to call Xi Mo a young lady.
Xi Mo looked at Gu Nanyi in front of him, he seemed to be older than Gu Beijun, with some disdain and a little hostility towards people in his eyes, it could be seen that although he had lived in the palace since he was a child, his treatment was very different from Gu Beijun's. His eyes are full of stories, and it is a kind of vicissitudes of life that cannot be looked back on the bumpy road of the soul.
Xi Mo thought: She better not provoke him, lest he hate him and be unfavorable to herself.
"Are you going to eat? I've made some sweets today, go try them. ”
Xi Mo wanted to leave, but felt a little embarrassed to go directly, so he said casually.
"Where can we taste the food cooked by my sister-in-law? We've eaten it a long time ago. ”
Unexpectedly, Gu Nanyi actually attacked her.
In fact, what Gu Nanyi said is reasonable, the distinction between concubines and concubines is serious, and even more so in the royal family, with their status, they can't go to the main hall to eat.
"Okay, then I'll go first."
Xi Mo was slightly apologetic, in her opinion, she had touched their fragile self-esteem.
"Sister-in-law walk slowly."
Gu Nanyi's tone was extremely strange. After Xi Mo left, Aunt Fan couldn't help but blame:
"Yi'er, why are you talking to the young lady like this. We, the people, are to be careful in what we say and do in the palace, and we must..."
"Be cautious in what you say and do, do more and say less, speak softly, and look downward. Mother, you have taught me these words since I was a child, and my ears are calloused. ”
Gu Nanyi said half-coquettishly and half-angrily, and continued when Aunt Fan had nothing to say:
"I am also Gu Jin's biological son, and I am also the young master of the Four Princes' Mansion, what is the difference between me and Gu Beijun? It's nothing more than a sister-in-law and a concubine, but why do I have to be like a slave. ”
In Gu Nanyi's impression, his mother has always been the kind of woman who is submissive, she is bound by the rules, but this does not show that he Gu Nanyi is going to follow his mother's old path, he is only one year younger than Gu Beijun, and he also wants to go out and make his own world, but who wants to believe him? Outside, he is the second young master of the palace who is admired by everyone and has beautiful scenery, but how can he not know how those people behind him talk about him: he is nothing more than a concubine, and he doesn't know how much difference he is from the lord.
Gu Nanyi is disgusted to live in the shadow of Gu Beijun since he was a child.
Aunt Fan was a little silent after hearing her son's words, and her heart was uncomfortable, she didn't blame her son, she only blamed herself, she only blamed her for being an eldest lady who liked Gu Jin and married him as a concubine. If it was at the beginning, with her identity, it would be more than enough to marry a wealthy family and be an upright lady, so why bother to let her son be so despised now.
"Aunt Fan, Nan Yi."
The mother and son walked around the house for a while, and a low male voice came from a distance.
Aunt Fan looked for her voice, and the corners of her mouth grinned unnaturally. It was Gu Beijun who came.
Although he is not her biological son, although his son is always inferior to Gu Beijun, Aunt Fan also watched Gu Beijun grow up, since she was a child, he did not treat her as a concubine, he has always been polite to her, never embarrassed himself, and he is also very friendly to Yi'er, and he secretly helps him with many things.
"Young master, what are you doing here?"
"Just now my father asked me to go to the study to talk about something. Nan Yi, I haven't seen you for a month, and I heard from my father that your martial arts practice has become more and more exquisite recently. ”
"If you are defeated, how can you be brave. No matter what aspect I come from, I can't be called good in front of my big brother. ”
Gu Nanyi remembered that four years ago, Gu Beijun was still living in the palace, and at that time they often competed in martial arts, but Gu Nanyi never won against Gu Beijun once. Later, Gu Beijun left in business, and Gu Nanyi also wanted to leave the palace, but his father Gu Jin just refused. Now he's twenty-one years old, and he still hasn't done anything serious.
"I have something to say to Aunt Fan."
Gu Beijun looked at his younger brother, he had low self-esteem since he was a child, and he did receive a lot of unfair treatment because of this status. But Gu Beijun cares about brotherhood, also values his ability, and wants to fight for some opportunities for him.
"That's okay, Yi'er, you go first, I'll talk to the eldest young master."
Aunt Fan saw that Gu Beijun had the intention to send Gu Nanyi away, so she hurriedly let him leave.
Seeing Gu Nanyi walking away, Gu Beijun spoke after thinking for a while.
