The fourth old man flatly denied it, saying that this was someone else's nonsense, and he had never done it at all. Because the fourth master has always been a decent person, the people in the family believed the words of the fourth master, and the old lady also asked people to find out where the rumors came from, and really taught a few people, and the matter was revealed. ”
"No one in the family believes that the fourth master is such a person, and even I don't believe it. I thought that this was the end of the matter, but I didn't expect that seven or eight days ago, on my way to give you a follow-up consultation, a girl stopped the carriage on the street. She said that she was the biological daughter of the fourth master, my half-sister. ”
"It's amazing that there is such a thing!" Mrs. Lu said in surprise: "Could it be that someone heard the rumor and deliberately pretended to be an official?" ”
"I was as suspicious as you, ma'am, but the circumstances did not allow me to think too much about it, and I had to have the girl taken home."
"Hmm." Mrs. Lu nodded: "Regardless of whether the person is or not, the situation at that time is indeed to place the person first, otherwise I will see it in the imperial history of the city patrol on the street, and there will be no right and wrong." ”
"I thought that the girl must be a liar, otherwise why didn't he knock on the door of Gu's house and stop me on the road? I thought about seeing the girl first, and then I would leave her at the disposal of the elders in the family. But what she never expected was that the girl was not talking nonsense, she said that her surname was Yao, her name was Yao Zhenzhen, and her mother's name was Yao Dizhu. ”
"Huh?" Mrs. Lu was even more surprised when she heard this: "It is still possible to forge your father's personal belongings in her hand, but that little girl looks so similar to your father, if you say that there is no relationship between the two, how can it not be justified?" There were rumors before that your father's outer room was called Yao Dizhu, and the mother of this little lady Yao was also called Yao Dizhu, how could there be any coincidence in the world? ”
Gu Chongyang said in a deep voice: "Yes, madam." It's a big deal, although I'm a member of the Gu family, I'm just a junior, how can I be qualified to call the shots in such a thing. I wanted to take the girl to find the fourth master, but I didn't expect the girl to say that she had already found the fourth master, and the fourth master not only did not agree with them to enter the Gu family, but secretly sold them, so that Yao Dizhu died in childbirth. ”
"Why did your father do this?" Mrs. Lu was surprised: "He is also a scholar, and the Gu family is not short of this bowl of rice, why would he do such a thing as selling concubines and daughters?" ”
Lord Lu frowned: "Ling Zun and this little girl, one of the two must be lying." That little girl is alone, and if she is not desperate, she will not look for you, and I am afraid that it is your father who lies. If he doesn't like Yao's mother and daughter, he can let Yao's body go free, as for Yao Xiaoniang is the flesh and blood of the Gu family, he doesn't like it, and he can't abandon it. In our Great Qi Dynasty, innocent abandonment of children is punished, and Master Gu is also a two-list jinshi who is familiar with the books of sages, or a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, how can he do such an unreasonable thing? ”
"I don't understand." Gu Chongyang smiled bitterly: "The fourth master is a gentleman, a person I admire and admire, so I naturally don't want to believe it, so I went to ask." ”
Mrs. Lu was very nervous: "Then what did your father say?" ”
"At first, he was reluctant to admit it, and only asked me to hand over Miss Yao to him. Later, when he saw that I refused, he confided the truth. ”
Gu Chongyang's tone became very bitter: "He said that he was afraid that the old lady in the family would punish him, so he couldn't accept Yao's mother and daughter." At that time, the fourth master was about to marry a bride, and he couldn't make a little difference. He also said that even if I brought Yao Zhenzhen to the Gu family, he would not admit it. ”
"What a fool!" When Mrs. Lu heard this, "Is there such a father in this world?" In order to marry a Ge daughter, he first forced his concubine to be desperate and asked me for help, but now he doesn't recognize his concubine and rejects his concubine, and he can't go back to his home, which is really chilling. This is also the fault of your old lady, if it weren't for her favoritism towards Xiao Ge's family, how could there be such a messy thing? ”
Gu Chongyang's face was a little embarrassed: "Yes, just because my father didn't admit it, and the old lady in the family pretended to be confused, Miss Yao would ask me for help when she was desperate." On one side is father and daughter, and on the other side is brotherhood, and I am really caught in the middle. ”
She looked at Master Lu and said solemnly: "But I think everything can't go beyond a single word, it is the fourth master who failed Yao Niangzi first, and it is his fault that he does not recognize Yao Niangzi first." Although I am his daughter, I can't watch the fourth master make mistakes again and again. So, I'm here today to ask the adults to do me a favor. ”
Lord Lu is a righteous and selfless person, hearing Gu Chongyang's words, his heart was already angry, although he was not as happy and angry as Mrs. Lu, but at this moment his face was cold: "Miss Gu, is what you just said the truth?" ”
"It's true! My lord, if I am not completely sure, how dare I talk nonsense in front of adults. Gu Chongyang pulled Yao Zhenzhen out from behind him and said softly, "My lord, this is that Yao girl." ”
At first, Master Lu thought that she was Gu Chongyang's maid who served at any time, but after listening to Gu Chongyang's words, he was slightly surprised, looked at Yao Zhenzhen and asked, "Are you really the daughter of the fourth master of the Gu family raised outside?" ”
Lord Lu is thin and polite, with a goatee, and he really doesn't look like a big official, but his tone of questioning is very sharp, and his eyes are as sharp as an eagle, Yao Zhenzhen's heart is sudden, and he instinctively wants to retreat.
But Gu Chongyang is behind her, she has no way to retreat, she will only be looked down upon by Gu Chongyang. If she retreats at this time, she will have no hope of entering the Gu family in this life.
Besides, she is the daughter of the fourth master, what dare she not admit?
"Yes, sir." Yao Zhenzhen opened his mouth but found that his voice trembled: "The biological father of the little woman is indeed the fourth master of the Gu family, but the fourth master did not allow our mother and daughter to enter the door in order to marry a bride, and sold the two of us behind our mother and daughter's back." My mother was pregnant, and when she was about to give birth, she couldn't stand the bumps and bitter cold on the road, and she had a fetal gas that caused her to die in childbirth......"
Thinking of the suffering of those days, the planning and fear in recent days, the resentment, suffering, sorrow, and pain in Yao Zhen's heart came up together in an instant, and the tears were like beads with broken threads.
Mrs. Lu's face was sad and she let out a long sigh.
Yao Zhenzhen found that he was rude, so he hurriedly wiped his tears with his sleeve and retreated behind Gu Chongyang.
Master Lu's face was solemn, obviously listening to what he had just said.
Gu Chongyang said again: "The fourth master doesn't recognize that his own flesh and blood are family affairs, but according to the method of solving family affairs, this problem will obviously not be solved." Therefore, Chongyang had the courage to ask Lord Lu for help. ”
Master Lu twisted his beard and said, "How can I help you?" It's the old lady of your family who doesn't agree to Miss Yao entering the door, and the fourth master of your family who doesn't admit it, do I have a way to make him admit it? ”
"Of course, except for Lord Lu, there is no one else who can help Chongyang." Gu Chongyang said loudly: "Hanlin Academy is the choice of the noble, only those who have both ability and political integrity can walk in it, what is important is self-cultivation, Qi family rule the country and level the world, internal injustice, people with loss of virtue, how can they be appointed as a bachelor of Hanlin Academy?" Although the fourth master went to serve in the Hanlin Academy, although it was recommended by others, it was also approved by Lord Lu. Lord Lu, as a servant of the ministry, you are in charge of the promotion and examination of all civil officials, and select the pillars of the country, is this how you select talents for the emperor and the imperial court? ”
Lord Lu set the table and scolded coldly: "You are so bold! He dared to talk about the government affairs of his own officials. ”
Master Lu's voice was stern, and his face was solemn like a layer of frost, which made Gu Chongyang's heart chill.
She wanted to retreat and avoid it, but she remembered the rumors about Lu Da in her heart, and couldn't help but muster up her courage, raised her head to meet Lord Lu's eyes, and said stubbornly: "Let this kind of person without virtue walk in the Hanlin Academy, and deceive the emperor and the world's scholars, you are much bolder than me!" ”
"Good, good, good!" Master Lu shouted three times in a row, and his face was surprised: "Miss Gu's medical skills are so good at a young age, and her courage and knowledge are so good, which is really unexpected. You're right, there are some people who don't live up to their names, and they are indeed not worthy of the position of a bachelor of the Hallym Academy. As a servant of the ministry, I must not sit idly by when I see this kind of thing, let alone let this kind of person lead the atmosphere of the courtiers. ”
Gu Chongyang's heart was overjoyed, and he hurriedly said: "My lord is discerning, fair, and Chongyang admires." ”
When he got out of the study, Gu Chongyang found that his back was wet and sweaty.
Mrs. Lu took her hand and praised her: "I already knew that your little girl was not ordinary, but I didn't expect you to have such a bold and clever mouth, even my master was persuaded by you, so amazing." ”
"Madam, I'm just telling the truth, just because I know that Lord Lu is upright and will never sit idly by, so I dare to be so presumptuous." Gu Chongyang grabbed Mrs. Lu's arm and said, "Thank you Madame for helping me speak in front of the adults just now, if you hadn't cooperated with me, I'm afraid Lord Lu wouldn't have believed my words alone." ”
She did look interested just now, and asked Gu Chongyang from time to time so that Gu Chongyang could continue, but she didn't expect this little girl to already know, so I am afraid that her own master will also know, and she will have to spend a lot of time to make up for it later.
"The more I look at you, the more I like it, I can't bear to let your pearl be dusty." Mrs. Lu said: "In a few days, we will have an entrance exam for Ruizhu Academy, why don't I give you an invitation, and you can take the exam." ”
In her previous life, she was a straw bag beauty, and she dreamed of becoming a famous lady with both talent and learning, and she was even more envious and admired the eldest lady Gu Chonghua in her heart.
Hearing Mrs. Lu's invitation, how could she not be moved? She almost wanted to nod her head on the spot.
But she didn't nod, but politely declined: "Thank you Madame, Chongyang is very grateful." Ruizhu Academy is famous all over the world, and the students who have dropped out of school are all talented families, although Chongyang is shallow, he also sincerely admires those people, and he is even more envious of those who can study in Ruizhu Academy. Madame can give me this opportunity to take the exam, and I am naturally very willing. It's just that it's easy to take the exam, but it's not easy to get in. ”
Gu Chongyang paused and continued: "Especially for people like me who don't usually read much, on the day of the exam, what can I use to get the approval of the examiners? In addition to playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, I can't do the last three at all. I don't know anything about chess, let alone drawing, as for calligraphy, I have written letters to my wife before, and I have also prescribed prescriptions to adults, I believe that my wife has seen it, it is really sparse and ordinary. Even if I play the piano, I'm just a little superficial, not to mention comparing with others, even my big sister Gu Chonghua can't compare. As for the poetry endowment, I don't know how to write at all, let me memorize other people's poems, let me compose poems, that is even more difficult than ascending to the sky. How can a person who doesn't know anything stay in Ruizhu Academy? Therefore, Chongyang can only thank his wife for her kindness. ”
Most importantly, her revenge is not yet complete.
When Mrs. Lu heard this, not only was she not angry, but she patted Gu Chongyang's hand with relief: "Others can't ask for the exam invitation from Ruizhu Academy, and only you will refuse." It's hard for you to know yourself so well and be so self-aware at such a young age. You kid, why do you have such a delicate heart? You are so smart, if the Gu family can pay attention to it, hire a good master for you, and study it carefully, you will definitely be better than your eldest lady Gu Chonghua. ”
"Madame loves the house and Wu, that's why she said this, Chongyang doesn't dare to compare with the big sister." Gu Chongyang smiled slightly and said, "Miss Yao has asked Mrs. to take care of me these days, I believe that with Mrs. Lu's help, Miss Yao will be able to return home in a short time." ”
"These are trivial things, don't worry, I will take good care of Miss Yao."
Yao Zhenzhen hurriedly stepped forward to thank him: "I've been bothering Mrs. these days." ”
"It's okay, you're Chongyang's sister, don't be polite." Mrs. Lu turned her head to Gu Chongyang and said, "You sisters will talk first, and I also have something to ask Sister Han, so I won't be here." ”
"Thank you, ma'am." Gu Chongyang thanked him again and watched Mrs. Lu leave.
"Sister!" As soon as Mrs. Lu left, Yao Zhenzhen couldn't wait to salute Gu Chongyang: "Today's incident, thanks to my sister's cleverness and dexterity, my sister's great kindness, Zhenzhen must be firmly remembered in my heart, and I dare not forget it for the rest of my life, if I have the opportunity, I must repay my sister for your kindness." ”
Her sister heard it in Gu Chongyang's ears, and it was really mixed.
If someone sues her, one day she is planning to help her daughter in the outer room enter the door of Gu's house, I am afraid that she will not believe her if she is killed. But the world is unpredictable, such an absurd thing really happened.
"Miss Yao, these days when you are in the Lu family, remember to be the same as before, low-key and careful, and never act willfully. If Lord Lu and Mrs. Lu didn't call you, you would have stayed in the room and never gone anywhere. Lord Lu will definitely ask you to come over for questioning, except for me who sent someone to save you, you must tell Lord Lu everything else, and you must not hide anything. I'll leave Danxin to take care of you, and you can let her pass on anything you want. Gu Chongyang advised again: "By now, you should also know that if nothing happens, you will definitely be able to look back at home." ”
Of course Yao Zhenzhen knew, otherwise he wouldn't have called Gu Chongyang's sister just now. Her sister's voice was indeed sincere, she was so grateful to Gu Chongyang, and she hated that Gu Chongyang was her own sister.
Yao Zhenzhen nodded again and again, and agreed: "Yes, sister, I have seen everything you have done for me in my eyes and in my heart, and I will definitely treat you as my own sister." Whatever you say is what you say, and I will definitely listen to you in the future. Even if I enter the Gu family, I must look at everything with you. ”
"You're wrong!" Gu Chongyang said: "The real purpose of me helping you is not to help you, but to pull the fourth master off the horse and add some obstacles to his career, not just to help you." I think you should also understand that the fourth master and I are intolerable. As for you entering the Gu family in the future, everything will be based on me, which is a bit early. Although you got what you wanted to return to the Gu family, the Gu family's house is by no means as simple as you imagined. Although I am a person in the second room, I will live in the long room in the future, and I will not return to the second room when I am idle, the water in the house is deep, and the ladies are not fuel-efficient lamps, and the sisters are not a group of harmony. ”
He was full of joy and was close to him, but he didn't expect Gu Chongyang to be so unkind, Yao Zhenzhen pursed his lips, and he was very unhappy in his heart.
Hmph, what's the big deal, when I enter the Gu family in the future, everyone is the same person, see that you are still arrogant and arrogant in front of me.
Yao Zhen was really slandered, but his face was sincere: "No matter what my sister is for helping me, I only know that if I don't have my sister, I will never enter the Gu family and become a young lady of the Gu family." I will always remember that my sister helped me so much, and I will never forget it. In the future, in the Gu family's house, my sister will have a place for me, although she told me that if I can help, I will definitely help my sister. ”
Just now, he said that he was a great kindness, but when he turned his face, it became a big busy; Just now he said that he is the only one who looks ahead, and now he says that he wants to help himself.
It's not in vain that Yao Zhenzhen is desperate to return to the Gu family, her face-turning, inconsistency and style are indeed very compatible with the Gu family, and she is more like the daughter of the fourth master than herself. It would be a pity if she didn't look home!
But it's good to draw a line like this, on the surface they are affectionate and affectionate sisters, but behind the scenes, they grit their teeth with hatred, this kind of sisterhood, she Gu Chongyang has experienced it in her last life, and it is no longer rare in this life.
Seeing that Jinwu was in the west and the sky was shining, Gu Chongyang and Rui's grandmother were not good to continue to stay, so they politely resigned from the Lu family's stay and boarded the car to leave the Lu family.
When their carriage drove to Dongzhimen Street, they found that white flags were hung at the two gates of the second room of the long house.
This...... Who happened again?
Gu Chongyang's heart couldn't help but hang, and he was contemplating and thinking, but the young grandmother grabbed her hand, her face was frightened, and her eyes were full of tears: "Fourth sister, look at how the white cloth is hanging outside, am I mistaken?" ”
Among the masters up and down the Gu family, they are basically fine, and there is nothing serious. Now that the body is not safe, there is only one long-room young master Gu Weirui.
Rui's grandmother had been told before that her husband was very likely to be unable to save her, and she would have to be widowed before she could complete the house. Later, Gu Chongyang found the root cause of Gu Weirui's illness, and her condition improved, but when she saw the white in front of the door at the moment, her heart still fell to the bottom.
She was so scared!
"Sister-in-law, don't be afraid!" Gu Chongyang didn't care about the pain of being caught, he didn't pull it away, but shook the hand of the young grandmother to comfort her: "Brother Lobby is in good health, I just gave him a pulse this morning, he will never be fine." It's only been two hours since we went to the Lu family, so in such a short time, how could something happen to Brother Lobby? Even if his illness has a recurrence, is there any reason why Grandmother Ying and Aunt Ying should not send someone to inform us? Relax, don't be afraid, Brother Rui is good! ”
Gu Chongyang's voice was gentle and firm, and Grandma Rui's originally flustered heart slowly calmed down.
The carriage drove into the Gu family's room, and as soon as he entered the door, the mother-in-law came forward to report the news: "The eldest young grandmother, the fourth young lady, and the third master of the second room are gone." ”
Rui's young grandmother's hanging heart completely relaxed: "It turned out to be the third master of the second room." ”
Her tone was a little relaxed, and the mother-in-law couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
And Gu Chongyang on the side couldn't help but take a deep breath, only to feel a burst of happiness, Gu Zhanyun, your retribution has finally arrived.
The two of them first went to Xirong Courtyard to see Mrs. Cui, and Mrs. Cui asked a few words about Lord Lu's situation and asked them to hurry down and change into mourning clothes.
Gu Chongyang and Grandma Rui were about to leave, when they heard Mrs. Cui say, "Brother Rui's daughter-in-law will go first, and Chongyang will stay." ”
Old Madam Cui's voice was calm and unwavering, and she couldn't hear joy and anger, but Gu Chongyang's heart tightened for no reason.
"Chongyang, tell me honestly, did you do the tricks and feet of the third master's violent death?"
"Nope." Gu Chongyang flatly denied it, shook his head and said: "I hate the third master, I hate that I can't break his body into thousands of pieces to repay my mother's humiliation, I even thought about stabbing him to death with a knife and dying with him." But I know that my mother wants me to live well, and she wants to see me hurt. Therefore, although I hate, I can only endure it, I believe that good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded, and it is not that the time has not yet come. The third master will kill himself if he commits many injustices, and he doesn't need me to take action, so naturally God will teach him a lesson. ”
Gu Chongyang paused, and then asked puzzledly: "Uncle, why did the third master suddenly die violently?" I didn't have any news before. ”
Old Madam Cui didn't answer, she stared at Gu Chongyang's face for a long time, and saw that her eyes were as clear as autumn water, sincere and innocent, without revealing a trace.
Old Madam Cui sighed and said, "The third old man died undignified, but it was indeed a violent death. Like you, I think this is very strange, so that's why I asked you to ask. ”
"Auntie, I really don't know. During this time, I have been in the long house, and I have basically never been out except for going to the Lu family. I just want to do it, and I don't have a chance. ”
Old Madam Cui's words were a little meaningful: "Whether you do it or not, it doesn't matter to me." What I care about is you, such a clever little girl, if the mind blinded by hatred will outweigh the loss, how can your mother not be heartbroken when she looks at the spirit of heaven? ”
Gu Chongyang knew that she could deceive others, but she couldn't deceive the thoughtful old lady Cui, she felt guilty and called in a low voice: "Grandmother Uncle......"
Old Madam Cui interrupted her: "Anyway, the third old man is dead now, whether you hate or resent, put it all aside." The most important thing is to live well. ”
Putting aside all hatred, this is easy to say, but how difficult is it to do?
Gu Chongyang raised his head, looked at the concerned eyes of Mrs. Shangcui, and blurted out the question in his heart: "Uncle Grandmother, the old lady in the second room and the eldest aunt hurt Brother Rui Lobby is so sick and almost lost his life, don't you feel heartache and hatred?" Haven't you thought about revenge? ”
"Brother Rui is my only grandson, the only bloodline of our long house, and the flesh of my heart, how can I not be heartbroken, how can I not hate?" Old Madam Cui's eyes narrowed, and she said sharply: "Why didn't I think of revenge, I'm like you, I hate to break the body of the person who killed my brother Rui into thousands of pieces, and cut it with a thousand knives!" ”
"But what's the use? That would cure my hatred for a while, but if I did do that, how would I be different from them? Just because their minds are filthy and despicable and hurt me, so I take revenge and go back, is it a good person to become despicable and filthy for them? They're nothing, and they're not worth my time and energy! ”
Old Madam Cui said proudly: "I took revenge on the Ge family and the Hao family, and let them return to the west with their lives, so what can I do?" It's just to let them die early and be born sooner. The qiē they did was all for the title of the Hou Mansion, and I didn't let them get their way. I want to take back the title of the Hou Mansion, let Brother Rui become the Marquis of Qingyang, and keep the glory of the Gu family for the old Marquis. Let the Ge family and the Hao family only watch my brother Rui give birth to children, inherit the throne, and be glorious for generations. And every time they are planning and planning, they are all empty bamboo baskets. ”
The former Qingyang Hou Mansion Hao Shi and Qingyang Hou Old Lady Ge Shi have long been accustomed to the days of commanding from above, and one day they will fall into the dust, how can they endure this gap? In order not to become a side branch, they even tried every means to please the old lady of the long house, and although the old lady of the long house did not retaliate against them, she would never give them a good look.
The general trend of the second room is gone, and it can no longer pose a threat to itself. The old lady in the second room was too busy to take care of herself, and she could no longer be Ge Bilian's backer, and Ge Bilian could no longer abuse and bully her as unscrupulously as before.
Thinking of this, Gu Chongyang's heart was very happy, and he couldn't wait: "Grandmother, when are you going to take back the throne?" ”
Old Madam Cui's face was calm, but a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she said in a deep voice: "Soon! ”
Gu Chongyang doesn't know how long it will be soon, but now that Ge Bilian is the bride, she hasn't shown her real minions yet, and Gu Chongyang doesn't have to be afraid of her. By the time she tore off her disguised mask, the second room had already fallen, and she was no longer qualified to embarrass herself.
She and Ge Bilian may rarely cross paths in the future.
In the previous life, Ge Bilian bullied her and humiliated her, and she could only accept it. In this life, she escaped from Ge Bilian's control, and she had to add some blockage to her no matter what, after all, she didn't come and be rude, Ge Bilian's "kindness", how could she pay it back in this life.
Gu Chongyang returned to Guan Ju Courtyard, and as soon as he entered the door, Qingzhi came up to report: "Miss, Mama Qiu has been here." ”
"Oh?" Gu Chongyang thought of Mama Qiu, the slave who betrayed her master, and now that the deed of sale of the whole family was in her hands, she must be sitting on pins and needles.
"What is she here for?"
"She said that she had betrayed Madame, and that she deserved to die, and that she knew what she would do. Just begged her to let her family go after she died. ”
Gu Chongyang sat on the chair and took a deep breath.
She lived again, but she failed to protect her mother's life, and she must be avenged. My aunt was kind-hearted, and she was unwilling to use the means of inferiority against the enemies of the second room, and she was unwilling to dirty her own hands. But she is different, her mother's death has become the biggest pain in her heart, but she will not let go of anyone who has harmed her mother.
Gu Zhanyun is the culprit, Mama Qiu's mother comes first, and the betrayal and deception of the master comes last, these two people must die!
As for the fourth master, she will not kill him, but she will make him no longer able to be an official and never give birth to children again.
As for the old pious woman and the Hao family, she won't move. Because the uncle and grandmother will deal with them, and it is more painful to let the throne they want to fall next to them than to kill them.
Gu Chongyang was no longer soft-hearted, she said coldly: "You go to tell Mama Qiu, I agreed to her last words." Then go to Gu Tailai and ask him to come and see me. ”
Before the green man left, Gu Chongyang stopped her and said, "That's it, you let Gu Tailai wait for me at the second door of the second room, I have something to tell him." ”
Gu Zhanyun's violent death, although she flatly denied it, but her grandmother obviously had doubts about her, and her grandmother would not harm her, perhaps to remind her to be careful recently and not to show her feet. Since this is the case, she and Gu Tailai should not meet too often, so as not to be suspected.
Because Gu Chongyang was originally very plain for his mother's filial piety, he didn't need to change his clothes, just put filial piety clothes on the outside of his clothes.
She took Qingzhi to the second room, and at this time it was already time to hold the lamp, and the sky was slightly dark.
Through the back garden, there is the courtyard wall of the second room, where there is also a corner door, and as soon as you enter the corner door, it is the second room.
Open the corner door is a family, close the corner door and separate houses, very convenient.
The mother-in-law who guarded the corner door in the second room also changed into filial piety clothes, and the two big red lanterns hanging on the corner door were also replaced with white ones.
Seeing that Gu Chongyang was coming, the mother-in-law guarding the door was busy rubbing her eyes: "The fourth lady is back, you said that the third master is such a good person, he is kind to us, and filial to the old lady, how can you say that there is no more, God is really not long-sighted." ”
God is not long-sighted, and he didn't let Gu Zhanyun, a beast, die early. If he had died long before they returned to the capital, how could his mother have been forced to commit suicide?
The mother-in-law rubbed her eyes and looked at Gu Chongyang with her eyes, and under the miserable white light, she saw Gu Chongyang's face pale, no sorrow, and even a little sneer.
She felt that she was bored, and quickly accepted the sadness. I was also muttering in my heart, this fourth lady has a weird temperament, although she has no contact with the third master, she doesn't have much feelings, she is an elder in the end, and she should always pretend to be on her face. She's good, and she doesn't even want to be perfunctory. With such a straightforward and scheming temperament, where will it be the opponent of the new fourth lady!
Gu Chongyang entered the corner door with an expressionless face.
Gu Zhanyun died, she was happy in her heart, and she couldn't wait to laugh three times. Even if she wants to pretend to be sad, it's not the time to face her mother-in-law now.
She did not go to the mourning hall, but went to the second gate first.
The mewed road, the hand-copying verandah, and the weeping flower gate are full of servants and maids wearing filial piety clothes and white hats, all of whom are in a hurry, looking nervous, and very busy.
It can be seen that Gu Zhanyun's death was sudden, and the people in the second room were unexpected, so they were a little in a hurry.
Gu Tai was already waiting for her at the second gate, he was also wearing a white filial piety robe, and a white hat on his head, as soon as he saw Gu Chongyang, he immediately walked up, and when he saw that there was no one left and right, he said: "Miss, Jin Hai has already left, I'm afraid this time I have already arrived in Tongzhou." ”
Boarding the ship from Tongzhou to the south, it is Jiaolong entering the sea, and when the people in the second room react, Jin Hai has long disappeared.
Jin Hai had redeemed herself before she decided to enter the mansion, and her owner was a tea merchant in Jiangxi. She told the owner that she would go to the Gu family's old boss to quit her job before leaving, and she was afraid that she would have to stay for some time, and when things settled down, she would leave immediately. The gold lord was so fascinated by her that he lost all his souls and seven spirits, and he couldn't wait to stick to her for twelve hours a day, although he was reluctant to separate this time, but in order to be able to possess the golden hairpin for a long time in the future, he had to agree.
After Gu Zhanyun's accident in the previous life, Jin Hai was beaten to death by a stick, and she survived in this life. After leaving Beijing this time, she may never come back. And Gu Chongyang and her can be regarded as two by two.
Knowing that Jin Hai had left Beijing safely, Gu Chongyang breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "While there is no curfew yet, you hurry up and go to the south of the city to find Jia Banxian, this time it is very simple, you only need to tell Jia Banxian two words." ”
"Okay, that's easy." Gu Tailai hurriedly asked, "Miss, what are the two sentences?" ”
"The first sentence is that the fourth lady of the Gu family just entered the door yesterday, and the third master died violently today. The second sentence is that the second lady of the Gu family does not deal with the new fourth lady. ”
After Gu Chongyang finished speaking, Gu Tailai already understood, and he smiled slightly: "Miss, don't worry, Gu Tailai knows, and he will definitely let Jia Banxian come to contact the second lady early tomorrow morning." ”
So saying, he went.
In the dim light, a smile appeared on Gu Chongyang's face.
The second lady Fei was originally a figure with a head and a face in the Gu family's house, although she didn't care about the family, but because of the love of the old lady, she could faintly compete with the eldest lady Hao. Recently, a series of events have happened, which has caused the second lady to retreat again and again, and she has also lost the trust of the old lady. Now that she is trying to win the old lady's favor again, how can she not regard Ge Bilian, the daughter of the Ge family, as an obstacle?
In her previous life, she never understood that Fei and Ge Bilian were cousins, but the two had never dealt with each other, tearing each other down and making them stumbling. Now she can see clearly, the two are relatives, but they also regard each other as fierce rivals, whoever can please the old lady will have a place in the inner house.
As soon as Ge Bilian entered the door, the third master died violently, maybe Ge Bilian was not good at eight characters and collided with the third master.
And Jia Banxian in the south of the city is a master who sells his reputation and fame, and has such an opportunity to make money, how can he miss it?
She just had to wait to see Ge Bilian's good show.
