Chapter 397: Stepmother's Kindness
What does Gu Mingnuan mean is that she and Mrs. Jiang have no objection to her marrying Gu Yan?
The eldest princess gently wiped the beads of sweat oozing from Gu Mingnuan's forehead again, her eyes became more and more loving, the various snacks on the panel were very delicately shaped, she was really a good daughter with a clever mind.
Helping Gu Mingnuan put the prepared snacks into the oven, the eldest princess pulled Gu Mingnuan to sit under the poplar tree outside the kitchen to enjoy the coolness.
The cooks are in charge of lighting the fire and watching the oven.
The eldest princess saw that Gu Mingnuan's wrists were empty, and knew that Gu Yan's family was not rich, even if Mrs. Jiang was rich, with the character of Gu Yan's father and daughter, she would definitely not care about Jiang's property.
She took off a string of crystal clear beaded jade bracelets from her wrists, which were carved from blood jade and were very valuable.
Gu Mingnuan's wrist is more slender than that of the eldest princess, and the bracelet has been wound twice, revealing from the sleeves, lining a section of the white skin of the wrist, "Eldest princess ......"
"Take it."
The eldest princess stubbornly didn't let Gu Mingnuan take off the bracelet, "You look good with it." ”
Gu Mingnuan is not short of jewelry, Jiang and Niangniang have bothered a lot for her, although her father doesn't understand this, he gave her all the silver, let her buy what she likes, and Xiao Yang also gave her good things.
She just doesn't like to let herself be covered with pearls, so she doesn't bring accessories such as bracelets.
"I have it too." Gu Ming said warmly, his little face burned with a wisp of shyness, which was more cute than usual.
The eldest princess's heart is happy, this is the daughter she has always hoped to have, it would be better to bring a little confusion, she can help her daughter prepare clothes and jewelry every day, accompany her to read and write, and you can also draw together and interpret Xuanji's poems......
Just think about it. Her heart is bubbling with beauty.
The eldest princess grabbed Gu Mingnuan's shoulder, "I know that you have, even if I can't let you call me mother in the future, you are also my favorite junior, the elder gives it, you can't resign, you can accept it with peace of mind." I've got a couple of pieces of jewelry there that you can bring. I can't finish it, and I don't have any children, so it's better to give it all to you. ”
Gu Mingnuan felt a sense of weakness in his heart. It's good to be spoiled, are her lovely relatives aiming to spoil her?
Is it the reason for the order that appeared in her mind for some reason?
"Thank you, eldest princess."
Even the elders gave it, and she couldn't resign, how could she dare to refuse?
Gu Mingnuan felt that there was a kind eldest princess to accompany his father. It's also a good choice.
Emperor Chu did not trust his father as much as he did at the beginning, and his father married the eldest princess. It can also slightly dilute Emperor Chu's suspicion of his father after Gu Mingnuan and Xiao Yang got married, but once this marriage is decided, she has to minimize Emperor Chu's influence on the eldest princess.
Auntie accepts Xiao Yang. Change your attitude to recognize the eldest princess, in all respects, the eldest princess is the best choice for her father.
Really. A marriage is not something that can be decided just by loving each other, and there are many aspects that need to be considered.
The eldest princess was happy. Gu Mingnuan didn't want to ruin her good mood, the eldest princess was good to her, and she had to pay at least two points for her stepdaughter, so that it would not be difficult for her father.
Gu Mingnuan was most reluctant to let his father be in a dilemma.
She intended to get married, and the eldest princess cherished her, and the two talked and laughed, and the relationship became closer.
Jiang Shi, who was sitting in the room, took out his pocket watch and looked at it, Sister Nuan showed her that she agreed with Gu Yan to continue marrying the eldest princess...... Jiang took a sip of tea, and had to settle Yan'er's marriage before Sister Nuan'er made a marriage.
How can a daughter be set before her father?
As if Gu Mingnuan was unwilling to let his father continue his chorus, his father did not dare to remarry until his daughter left the cabinet.
The reputation is not good.
The sound of a woman's laughter came from the courtyard not far away, Jiang Shi frowned, the eldest princess had introduced that the largest courtyard of the post station belonged to the queen's mother, summoned Mother Qian, and ordered in a low voice: "You go and see the situation." ”
No matter how Nuan Sister's own mother is, Jiang can't believe Queen Zhao.
Mother Qian took the order and left, and after a while, she returned to the room and whispered: "It's the concubine of the Marquis of Jingbei who came to visit the queen, and there are a few ladies and young ladies who are close to the Marquis of Jingbei, they have just arrived...... I didn't dare to get too close, but I saw a group of people around my mother. ”
"Xiao Yue has taken a concubine?"
It was the first time Jiang had heard about this, and a hint of amusement flashed in his eyes.
Mother Qian also felt very happy, "She is in Jinling, and there is no one in the house to preside over the feeding and befriending the wife, and the Marquis of Jingbei has accepted a few noble girls from the north as concubines, and I just heard that the person sitting next to the mother is actually happy." ”
"Seeing Yin Ru live her life like this, I feel at ease."
Jiang's expression was happy, "With a concubine, there will be an heir, Yin Ru can think about it, and life will be better, once you can't think about it...... She, wait to suffer, her wisdom is in the wrong place. Gu Cheng ...... is about to marry a wife, and with her younger siblings and Sister Xin watching, she is afraid that she will not dare to go to Gu Cheng again. ”
She rarely embarrasses women, but Yin Ru is not doing well, she is really happy.
At the beginning, she was a kind person who sharpened Yin Ru's impetuous temperament, but who knew that after she eloped, she also said that she scolded her niece and daughter-in-law!
When Jiang entered Gu's house, there were in-laws, original concubines, and husband's favorite concubines, and her mother's family was a bad thing, how much did Jiang suffer to adapt to the rules of the Gu family during that time?
The mother-in-law guarded her, her husband didn't like her, her stepson was indifferent to her, and her favorite concubine gave birth to a son in a row...... At that time, only Gu Shilang was good with her and said a few words of justice for her.
Compared to her, Yin Ru was just learning the rules in the Gu family, Gu Cheng didn't dare to oppose the Li family and the Jiang family's decision in person, and he was about to offer her up in private.
In this way, Yin Ru still has a hundred grievances, and he will not be wronged when he goes to Hou Xiao's house in Jingbei?
"You go and send a message to Sister Nuan and ask her to avoid it."
Jiang didn't want Gu Mingnuan to get into trouble.
After the dim sum was ready, the eldest princess tasted a piece first, and gave Gu Mingnuan a thumbs up, "The name is well deserved." ”
Gu Mingnuan chose a few more good-looking plates, and carefully placed the petal-shaped dim sum on the plate depicting lotus leaves, "Send it to Niangniang." ”
The cook stepped forward and put the plate into the food box, and said on her knees, "The slave and maid will go now." ”
It's a good job, and I'll be rewarded when I'm happy.
After loading two plates of snacks, Gu Mingnuan walked to the house where the Jiang family was with a smile and a smile with the eldest princess, and was stopped on the way:
"Lord Jianing? You're the Lord of Jianing. ”
Gu Mingnuan looked sideways, a woman with a falling horse bun was surrounded by a group of mothers-in-law and maids, she was wearing a purple ****** jacket with butterflies and flowers, her head was full of golden hairpins and phoenix hairpins, a red gold collar was hung around her neck, a priceless treasure jade was pendant on her chest, and there were more than a dozen bracelets with gold silk wrapped around her wrist.
"I am the noble concubine of the Marquis of Jingbei, and I am exempt from your surname Shang."
She stroked Gu Mingnuan's body, and carefully covered her lower abdomen with her palm. (To be continued.) )
