Chapter 75: The Hundred Days Festival
"Shut her up!" Gu Chongyang stood up suddenly, looked at Shuang'er with cold eyebrows: "Hit her ten boards, and then throw it out." โ
She suddenly became angry, and everyone in the room was startled, and everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look at her.
Frost was taken down.
Gu Chongyang said sharply: "In the future, who dares to sell the Begonia Courtyard with other people's money, Shuang'er is her example." If you think you have a big face and a hard body, and you are not afraid of hitting the board, you can give it a try! โ
The begonia courtyard was quiet, and I could only hear the sound of "poof" and "poof" on the meat of the board in the yard, as well as the whimper of frost eating pain.
Her mother is gone, and she can no longer be as ignorant as she was in her previous life, and let others bully her. In this life, you must live a life.
She walked into the inner room, sat on the edge of the bed, and was about to put the shoe in the rosewood box, and opened the box, but she was suddenly stunned.
There is a set of peach wood comb grate in the box, which is painted with the four scenes of Su Causeway Spring Dawn, Quyuan Wind Lotus, Pinghu Autumn Moon, Broken Bridge and Remnant Snow Hangzhou, four comb grates of different sizes, some can comb hair, some can grate head, the smallest one is a lovely and exquisite hairpin.
This is clearly the same series as the grate that Gu Chongyang bought in Botou Town, Cangzhou Prefecture. It's just that this set is more delicate and lovely, not to mention the exquisite painting, and the use of good green sandalwood.
She held the hairpin in her hand and felt warm in her heart.

On February 15, the three spring exams ended, and the next day, Shen Yucheng took Shen Rang and Shen Zheng to visit Gu Chongyang.
Gu Chongyang was very happy in his heart, and wanted to ask his uncle and mother what was going on several times, but he swallowed the words again and again.
In the afternoon, on the way to send Shen Yucheng out, Gu Chongyang couldn't help but say, "Uncle, in your heart, what kind of person is my mother?" โ
Shen Yucheng looked at Gu Chongyang and said meaningfully: "Your mother is the younger sister of my mother's compatriots, she is gentle and generous, she acts moderately, and she is the best girl in the Shen family. No matter who she is, no matter what others think of her, in my uncle's heart, she is my dearest sister. She is also your mother, the one who loves you the most. โ
After sending off his uncle, Gu Chongyang returned to Haitang Courtyard and held the embroidered shoes in a daze.
The uncle really thinks that her mother has done something she shouldn't have done, so he emphasized that no matter what, her mother is her mother and the person who loves her the most. He was afraid that he would listen to others and hate his mother.
How could she be disgusted with her mother?
No matter what others say, no matter what others think, she will not believe that her mother would do something that would disgrace her relatives.
's father is the young master of the prince's family, and he was born as a jinshi, and he has earned fame with his own efforts, and he is a highly motivated and excellent son.
And although my grandfather's family was rich, they were just merchants. My mother is most afraid that others will say that she is a merchant girl, who does not know etiquette, has no rules, and has no upbringing. Therefore, she is always careful and pays attention everywhere, lest what she does not do is wrong and make people laugh. For fear of losing the face of the Shen family, and even more afraid of embarrassing his father.
In her past and present lives, her mother was extra careful and did not want to be talked about.
Based on this, she believed that her mother would never do the kind of thing Biyun said.
Besides, her mother and father have a deep love affair, and her father's eyes contain tender friendship and endless admiration, how could she betray her father before she could love her father.
She didn't believe it, 110,000 didn't believe it, and her mother would never do that shady thing.
But if it weren't for that, how could the mother commit suicide, why would the family suppress the mother's death, and why would the father be so silent?
The embroidered shoe in her hand was clenched and loosened by her, loosened and clenched.
Luwu, Qingzhi and Dan looked at her worriedly, and no one dared to come forward to persuade her.
Suddenly, Gu Chongyang stood up. She finally remembered the crux of the matter.
Catch thieves and stolen goods, catch traitors and catch doubles.
They all believe that their mother has done something bad, but what about the evidence? Who is the other party?
Someone must have framed my mother!
Including the reason why my uncle and father believe in other people's frames, I am afraid that they have seen the so-called evidence, and even the so-called "adulterer". Otherwise, there is no basis for the red mouth and white teeth, how can they let others buckle the basin on their mother's head?
It must be like this.
She can't solve the problem with the idea that her mother will not do anything wrong, but she has to follow the other person's thoughts.
Who is that person? As long as that person is found, it can prove the innocence of the mother.

On March 16, it was the 100-day festival of the fourth lady, Gu Chongyang and the fourth master Gu Zhanming, the uncle Shen Yucheng, and the two cousins Shen Rang and Shen Zheng went to Guangji Temple together, and they invited 7749 monks to do things for the fourth lady.
Kneeling on the futon, listening to the monks chanting the "Mantra of Death", Gu Chongyang said to the fourth lady in his heart: "Mother, you can go with confidence, I will definitely find out the murderer and return your innocence." โ
Since the transcendent ritual had to be done late at night, they did not go back that night, so they stayed at Guangji Temple.
Early the next morning, the fourth masters, Gu Zhanming and Shen Yucheng, left Guangji Temple to run their own errands.
And Shen Rang was ordered by his father to accompany Gu Chongyang with Shen Zheng to relax.
After my aunt died, this little cousin was left alone, which was too pitiful.
"Cousin, where do you want to play?" Shen Rang said with great interest: "Today, the two of us will accompany you all day, be your flower messengers, you can go wherever you want." โ
Gu Chongyang shook his head with interest: "I don't want to go anywhere." โ
"Don't." Shen Rang hurriedly said: "I'm afraid you don't know how lively this area is, there are all kinds of people selling outside, as well as jugglers, jugglers, storytellers, monkeys, and people who sell goods from south to north." There are also shops opened by Westerners, Hu people, Persians, and big cannibals. โ
"I'm afraid you haven't seen the Persians yet, they don't look like us at all, they have high noses, and their eyes don't turn the color of our eyes. Alas, anyway, you will know when you see it. There's only what you can't think of, there's nothing you can't buy. Shen Rang instigated: "Cousin, you just go out and have a look, you can't miss it when you pass by, and I promise that you won't regret it." โ
"Let my cousin, you said it so vividly, have you seen it with your own eyes?"
Shen Rang paused, and said: "I haven't seen it, I came to the capital from Nanjing, and I have been staying at home to read books and make articles, and I haven't gone anywhere." Finally, the list was released, and my father didn't allow us to go out. In another ten days, the list will be released again, and by that time, I will be nameless on the list, and my father will be angry, and he will not let me come out to play. โ
"When I came, I boasted about Haikou with my eldest brother and sister-in-law, eldest sister and sister-in-law, and little niece Tian Tian, saying that I would go to the capital to see it, go back and tell them about the fun things in Kyoto, and bring them the most interesting things in Guangji Temple Hutong."
He said and counted on his fingers: "The eldest brother's clairglass, the sister-in-law's diorama, the new silk flowers that the eldest sister and the younger sister want, and the doll and sugar man for Tian Tian, and the hairpin and the blanket of Persia for my mother, if I can't go, I can't buy anything, what face do I have to go back to see my father in Jiangnan?" โ
When Gu Chongyang heard this, he burst into laughter, and sure enough, he wanted to go out to play.
Shen Rang pulled a stool and sat down in front of Gu Chongyang, and asked curiously, "Can the flying carpet sold by Persia really fly?" Is there a villain in the chiming clock sold by Westerners who has been walking inside? Is there really everything in the alley of Guangji Temple? You should be able to buy a clairvoyant, right? Even if you can't see thousands of miles, you should at least see a hundred miles, otherwise how can it be called a clairplane? โ
Shen Rang's eyebrows fluttered when he said it, Gu Chongyang didn't react much, but the green and the others were obviously moved.
"Since my cousin wants to see it, then I, the host, will give up my life to accompany the gentleman and accompany my cousin to have a look. I also want to buy a few pigeons to keep and play. โ
When Shen Rang heard this, he was overjoyed: "Good cousin, you are really a good person." On behalf of the eldest brother and sister-in-law, the eldest sister and the younger sister, and Tian Tian, I thank you. โ
The green turnip and green angelica also looked very happy, although Danxin was steady, but his face was also smiling.
Since everyone was happy, Gu Chongyang also felt very happy in his heart.
The group went out lively.
After walking around for a while, I bought a few large bags of things, and the girls felt tired because of their lack of foot strength.
They found a teahouse and chartered a private room on the second floor.
Shen Rang and Shen Zheng volunteered to help Gu Chongyang find a shop that sold birds, and said that when they found it, they would come to pick up Gu Chongyang.
Gu Chongyang sat by the window while resting, looking at the โกโก shops and the endless flow of people outside.
Lu Wu suddenly pointed downstairs and said, "Miss, look, isn't that Hao Gongzi?" โ
