Chapter 139: Sweet Dreams
When Mu Xinrong was buried, Gao Shuilian was the most miserable one to cry, which caused many female guests to discuss. didn't care about it on the face, and said in private that Gao Wu's concubine still respects the main mother.
Some people listened to it and put forward different opinions, what kind of mother, don't talk about the guilt, she has been married to Gaofu for more than two years, and she hasn't seen the appearance of a mixed wife, she is dying, and she is just a flat wife.
In short, the ending of Mu Xinrong's life completely eliminated the wishful thinking of many restless women in the Great Shang Dynasty, and how many women who wanted to emulate Mu Xinrong were not high or low, so they stopped thinking.
The county lord of Fenghua commented: "A woman, telling the world such a truth with personal actions, is really worth dying." ”
Mrs. Luo was puzzled and hurriedly asked what the reason was.
The county lord of Fenghua laughed and said: "A wife is a wife, and a concubine is just a concubine." ”
Mrs. Rowe laughed.
As soon as Mu Xinrong left, Gao Wu sold all the people he had used with Mu Xinrong, and as for the 20,000 taels of dowry property, Gao Wu was in charge and handed it over to the treasury, which caused Emperor Renxing to be particularly appreciative.
Gao Shuilian, who coveted Mu Xinrong's money, her mood plummeted.
I don't understand Gao Wu very much, so much property, just hand it over, so I can leave some for myself!
But on the bright side, Gao Shuilian can't show anything, her image has long been fixed, and she can only honestly play the role of her gentle and considerate concubine.
However, there is one thing she is secretly happy about.
Qiu is gone. Mu Xinrong died, and Gao Wutong had a total of three women, and now only she is left. Although she was born poor, she also entered the house as a good concubine back then, and she was not a slave who sold herself into slavery, so the possibility of becoming a regular is 100%.
Besides, although Gao Wu's current position is high, ordinary women from serious families are unwilling to continue with others. Not to mention. Gao Wu's situation. It's not a serious wife, and it's dead. It's just that I can't get by, and I'm divorced, and the one who officially died is not the first wife. Ouch. Gao Shuilian is complicated and weird when she thinks about it. I feel that it is even less likely that a woman from a family will marry Gao Wu.
And those women from small families, Gao Wu may not be able to look at them. Not to mention Gao Wu, even she can't look down on her. They are also from small families, and they came first, so who has more advantages than whom, you can know without comparison.
After this analysis, Gao Shuilian is more sure of the possibility of her becoming positive, and since then, her days have been spent in a dream.
But day after day, until half a month passed, Gao Wu didn't come to see her, and she went to see Gao Wu several times, but she was stopped at the door with various excuses.
Gao Shuilian became more and more confused.
On this day, Gao Shuilian couldn't hold back anymore, and broke into Gao Wu's study, thinking that Gao Wu was recuperating quietly, but who expected that after entering, she found that Gao Wu was listening to music.
If it's an ordinary songwriter, but look at the two winds. Seductive woman, dressed violently. Dew, a fox with long eyes. It's fine, but it's not a good product at first glance!
Gao Shuilian suddenly walked in angrily.
The sound of strings stopped abruptly, and Gao Wu, who was lying on the couch with his eyes closed, was interrupted by this and slowly opened his eyes.
"Brother Wu, how can you ......" Gao Shuilian stammered, feeling that accusing Gao Wu was not, and it was not as if he didn't see it.
Gao Wu didn't move, and asked lazily, "What do you call me?" ”
Gao Shuilian glared, Brother Wu! Didn't they all call it that before?
Gao Wu saw that Gao Shuilian didn't react for a long time, and said unhappily: "It's been so long, haven't you learned the rules yet?" Brother Awu is such an old-fashioned name, don't call it again! Besides, it doesn't fit your identity. ”
Gao Shuilian was choked, and saw the two Yan who played the piano and sang music on the side. The woman snickered, and was immediately angry and ashamed, but she didn't dare to refute, so she had to bend her knees and say, "Yes, master, the concubine knows." ”
"Well, go down, don't disturb me listening to the music." Gao Wu waved his hand slowly and motioned for Gao Shuilian to retreat.
smiled at the two singers again: "Come on, sit here, what kind of singing method you did just now, I didn't understand it." Gao Wu smiled very gently, and said to a woman in red.
The woman in red was shy, her face was like a flying flower, and she said coquettishly: "Master didn't understand, the slave family sang again." As he spoke, he leaned towards Gao Wu's side.
Gao Shuilian couldn't hold it anymore and left quickly.
She felt that her Brother Awu had changed.
After Gao Shuilian left, Gao Wu immediately sent the two singers down, and Wen Zheng came over to help him.
"Wen Zheng, let's go to the small garden."
"Yes, sir, slow down."
In the place where Gao Wu was alone, there was a small garden, and at this time, it was the height of summer, and the flowers were in full bloom. Gao Wu looked at these extremely beautiful flowers, but he had a feeling of dead ashes.
"Wen Zheng, how long have you been with me?"
"Back to Master, if you calculate it carefully, it's been eight years. I remember that when my grandfather rescued his subordinates who had died from the field, you were just a soldier. ”
"From a soldier to a second-class official, this is probably something that most people from poor backgrounds dare not think of."
Wen Zheng nodded, "Ye is more capable than others, and he is more courageous than others, so he is naturally not comparable to ordinary people." ”
Gao Wu laughed at himself: "How can you learn from others to make sycophants." It's not like you. What ability, courage, just a few points luckier than others, picking up a life from the pile of dead. ”
"Working hard, to this position today, looking back, whether you like it or dislike it, all of them are gone, what's the point?"
"Master, don't say that, you care so much about your wife, one day, she will forgive you and come back."
"Really?" Gao Wu smiled bitterly.
The two of them turned around for a while, and Wen Zheng said again: "Master, Aunt Gao has done so many bad things, you know it clearly, why do you keep her?" ”
Gao Wu was silent for a long time before he said: "Mu Xinrong just died, she was freed from Duda, so I have to leave her to bounce for a while." Anyway, I'm at home now, it's boring, there is a person who plays in front of you like a monkey every day, and he works hard at others, what's the matter, you have to look twice. ”
Wen Zheng also laughed, "Aunt Gao is dreaming of becoming a regular, with her subordinates understanding her, after today's incident, she must be even more uneasy, and she wants to get your attention as soon as possible." ”
"Okay, I'll wait."
Gao Wu walked for a while, felt bored, and went back to the room.
