Chapter 204: If you're tired, you have to lean on
The time when the drum tower rings the door drum every day is roughly one or three o'clock, in the summer, it is the time when the last ray of light disappears on the horizon, but now it is September, although the time of returning from Bajingfang is still early from the time of closing the door, the sky has gradually darkened, the pedestrians and cars on the long street have been sparse, and the diligent people are having dinner.
Zaoni ran wildly, only slowed down slightly when turning at the intersection, accelerated on the next long street, and ran all the way back to the long street where Tianshuifang was located, as if sprinting into the gate of Tianshuifang, the flow of people in the square was still bustling, and the buildings and halls that did night business were hung up with lanterns and shouted to open, and the curfew did not prohibit the nightlife in the square, and the merchants had business and the court had taxes.
Gu Yun pulled the reins, Zao Ni slowed down slowly, deftly avoided pedestrians on the street, crossed the intersection and turned into the northwest corner, walked through the alleys between the houses, and finally arrived outside the side gate of the Guogong Mansion.
The return trip was actually Gu Yun's control of the horse, Bai Qiao only needed to relax and sit well, so it was not as miserable as in the morning, the two legs still belonged to her, and the two of them slowly walked back to Zhongming Courtyard one after the other.
The guards arrived home first, and passed the word to Zhongming Courtyard to tell the girls to get ready, Gu Yun and Bai Ko were immediately helped away separately as soon as they entered the courtyard door, Aunt Su bolted the door and followed to take care of Bai Ko, and the other girls waited for the young master.
The eldest lady naturally got the letter, and when she heard that her son was home, she hurriedly came to visit, and saw that he really didn't have to worry about seeing the doctor before she relieved her heart, and told her son to drink more tea and rest more.
Gu Yunping withdrew from the girl, talked alone with her mother in the bedroom, and talked about the unhappiness that happened between Bai Ko and Ye Junting's girl today, and the eldest lady frowned deeply after hearing it.
"Ye Junting's nickname is Miss Perfect, I have heard of her girls talking unforgivingly, and your eldest sister's family letter has also mentioned it several times that they are unlucky to quarrel with Bai Ko, and when she gets home, I don't know how to make trouble with your eldest sister."
"They still think that Bai Ko is Huang Bin's girl, they can't make trouble today, and if they want to make trouble, they have to wait until the ninth day of the new year, they have eaten a banquet, they see people, and they will make trouble when they go home. I'm afraid they won't have the courage to learn what the girl said as it is. ”
"Ignore them, anyway, we don't want to climb their homes."
"Huh?"
"Your eldest sister has already said in the letter that she wants Ye Junting to marry a royal clansman, her high-minded and uncannibalistic temperament can only be seen by the clan that does not take the road of power, as the founding prince of the country, we started with military merits, after all, we still take the road of real power, and we are not all the way with them."
"That mother also married the eldest sister at the beginning."
"It's not for the sake of your eldest brother-in-law that it will hurt people, otherwise I wouldn't have agreed to this family business, your eldest sister didn't disappoint, she has been married for so many years, the husband and wife are loving, and the family is well-managed, everyone praises her, she is the master of the family, and Ye Junting can't turn flowers in her hands."
"And that's it?"
"What else do you want? What a mess? If you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, the queen mother and the prince have not offended you. ”
"Okay, listen to my mother, that's it."
"You remember to tell Bai Ko, it's not strange that there are quarrels between girls, but you must not hit anyone, especially since her fists are heavy, those delicate big girls can't withstand her blows."
"Don't worry, mother, I told you early in the morning, Bai Ko is measured, otherwise she would have slapped her at that time."
"Okay, don't talk nonsense with you, your father is almost home, I'll go first, you have a good rest."
"Mother, go slowly."
Gu Yun helped his mother out of the door and sent him to the porch, and watched Pang's mother walk away with his wife.
The eldest lady returned to Jicheng Hall, just as the grandfather of the country had just entered the door, the lady waved away the girl and personally changed her husband's clothes, washed her hands and cleaned her face, and by the way, she told her husband what her son had just said.
Grandpa Guo listened to it in his ears and knew it in his heart, but now he was more concerned about his son being drugged again, and decided to say hello to Yingtianfu Yin tomorrow, and check the gang to see if there is someone manipulating gambling behind his back.
Bai Ko was well cooked from head to toe by Aunt Su in the bedroom, and the inner thighs massaged by the saddle were given hot compresses and medicine, and after resting for a while, she changed her skirt and went out.
Gu Yun cleaned up and sat on the Luohan couch outside the bedroom, wearing homely clothes, with his feet stretched out under the couch, and a soft woolen blanket on his legs.
The young master is not at home, what housework can there be in Zhongming Courtyard, but there are two things elsewhere.
The first is a letter from the district family telling them that they are packing up and sorting out the dowry of Ou Shuangrong at the third grandfather's house overnight, and they will all be sent over as soon as they are ready, and the inheritance as a mother has been assigned to Gu Hui's name.
"Miss Hui is really pitiful, her mother is missing, and her father is in prison." Meilun said with emotion.
Gu Yun nodded lightly in agreement, so far, Ou Shuangrong's whereabouts are a secret that can't be said even if he is killed.
"What about the other one?"
"The other one has to do with the white butler."
"What?"
"In the afternoon, the girl of Jichengtang went to the east kitchen to get snacks, and brought a note to hand it over to the white housekeeper, and the maid accidentally saw it, the second lady bought four cooks yesterday, and sent it to the east kitchen today to meet everyone, saying that it was the same sister as the white housekeeper."
"Where's the note? Take it for me to see. ”
Meilun hurriedly took out a note from his waist and flattened it and handed it to the young master.
The note simply wrote about the second lady sending the new chef, with four names, Yang Jinying, Yang Cuiying, Guan Xiumei, and Deng Jinxiang.
That's when White Ko stepped through the door.
"Is Shizi feeling better? Got an appetite for dinner? It's time for dinner in the kitchen. ”
"I don't want to eat it."
Gu Yun raised his head, motioned to Meilun to take the others down with his eyes, and closed the door, and then he shook the note in his hand at Bai Ko.
Bai Ko stepped forward in confusion, and just took the note, but she didn't expect Gu Yun's hand to move to her waist immediately, and when she coincidentally, Bai Ko fell to the couch, and the whole person was encircled between Gu Yun's arms.
"Shizi?"
"Dizziness." Gu Yun leaned on Bai Ko's shoulder blades, and his voice sounded weak.
Bai Ko was sitting facing the door, and Gu Yun's left hand stretched out from her left waist and put it on her right waist, so Bai Ko couldn't see the young master's expression at all.
"Do you want a servant to call someone to ask for a doctor? Now go and ask Imperial Doctor Min to probably be in time to get ahead of the gate of Guanfang. ”
"Don't."
"Then go to the street clinic and ask for one?"
"Don't."
"Aren't you dizzy?"
"I'm not dizzy now."
Gu Yun quickly raised his head and rested his chin on Bai Ko's shoulder
