Chapter 7 Guining

Three days later, it was the day to return to the door, Gu Pan was lazily lying on the soft cushion, sitting alone in the carriage, without the aggressive gaze from the other side, she felt so at ease.

The bridegroom rode a horse today.

It seemed that the shadow caused by the experience of that day was too great, and Gu Pan couldn't help but laugh.

After walking for a while, I heard more noise from the streets on both sides, and it was obvious that I was in the middle of the city.

Gu Pan lifted a small slit in the small curtain of the window and looked out.

The bluestone street is lined with shops. There are guys who stand in front of the store and greet customers with a smile, and there are also hawkers who shout along the street with loud voices. Wooden buildings, quaint streets.

This is the first time Gu Pan has looked at this strange world, everything is so new.

There are still a lot of girls on the street, all dressed up brightly. It seems that this place is not too closed, and no one thinks it is strange that the big girl is showing off on the street.

But soon, Gu Pan found that the girls' attention didn't seem to be on the shop and the goods. They all looked in a certain direction of this convoy, and they were all like peach blossoms. Red hearts in the eyes.

That direction should be not far from the carriage, listening to the sound of horses' hooves falling on the bluestone slab, Gu Pan rolled his eyes, this sassy prince is quite good at attracting bees and butterflies.

It's been more than half a year since I got here, and I've only stepped out of the door three times. When I thought of this man, I was trapped in a cage all my life, and I suddenly lost my good mood.

It's not that she didn't want to run away with the money.

But this kind of thing, if you think about it, you can do it.

I only have to think about it.

First, his health is not good, and secondly, even if he can exchange the gold and silver around him for cash, how can he escape from this cage? With no skills and no protection, a lone rich woman who has lost her background is coveted and bullied, what can she do to protect herself and resist?

Maybe on the way to escape, he was clicked by some robber, how wronged.

To be protected, in this feudal society where men are superior to women, it is ultimately up to men. I have to rely on men to protect me, Gu Pan thought about it, and finally felt that it was better to face this prince. First, the parents are not bad, and the second is that they have money and backstage, and they are not afraid of being bullied when they go out.

Fang Xiao didn't want to see him, but he couldn't be told to hate himself too much. If you want to live a long life in this house, in addition to the queen mother's thighs, his thighs are also indispensable to hug. But don't hold it too tightly, otherwise it will be easy to attract enemies. You can't respect each other as guests, and you can't look at each other and hate each other. Don't be too distant, don't be too flattering, how to maintain a relationship that is not far away, this is really a problem.

She sighed and closed the curtain a little gloomily.

The depressed mood did not improve until the carriage stopped.

When he got out of the car, he saw his father and two brothers waiting at the door, and Gu Pan seemed to feel even tighter in his chest. Her nerves were already fragile, and that long-winded mother would surely add to her fragile mind.

When the newlyweds returned to the door, the Gu Mansion prepared a luncheon.

Although Fang Xiao was not satisfied with this father-in-law, he had the relationship of the queen mother after all. What's more, in the court, he and this father-in-law also looked up and didn't look down, and Gu Ergongzi's words were once read in the palace, so they could be regarded as some friendships. After driving a girl, he had already refuted the face of the Gu family, and he wanted to ask Fang Xiao to embarrass his father-in-law's family again in front of him, but he couldn't pull this face. Between pushing the cup and changing the lamp, I can't help but drink a few more glasses.

When he came out of his hand, he was a little dizzy, so he sat down on the stone bench in the garden. He never liked strangers to serve, so he sent the little guy who led the way to call for happiness.

When I was waiting here, I heard a voice behind the rockery, which was gradually heard clearly from far and near, and a female voice was dissatisfied: "You are talking nonsense again." ”

A somewhat thin voice said softly: "Cousin, I just saw it at the door, when our little lady got off the carriage, not only did the prince not go to help, but also didn't even look at it, he just looked like he didn't care about people, and he entered the mansion by himself." ”

The cousin, who was called a cousin, reprimanded: "Nonsense! The prince feels sorry for the princess, so he doesn't have to show it to our subordinates. ”

The thin voice answered, and couldn't help arguing in a low voice: "I'm just wronged for the little lady, I heard that it is a merry prince, and there are a large number of beautiful wives and concubines in the family. ”

The cousin said: "You are talking nonsense again, the princess is very good, and she is liked by others." ”

The thin voice said: "The little lady in the past is called a delicate heart, who doesn't like it, who is not convinced." But since I got sick, I don't remember anything, I can't talk about piano, I can't do paintings, I don't even know how to write words, I don't usually say a few words, I look a little stunned, like I'm stupid. ”

The cousin whispered, "Shut up! You're getting ridiculous! The subordinates talk about the master at will, and talk about the royal family in vain! Do you want this little life anymore?! ”

The thin voice said aggrievedly: "I'm just talking to my cousin, and I won't talk to others, I just feel sorry." ”

"It's a pity," the cousin sighed too, and a voice that seemed to be a little confused came again: "But why, I like the little lady more now." ”

The voice was strange: "Do you like the little lady you look like now?" ”

The cousin said, "Well, I like the little lady now. In the past, the little lady was naturally very good to our subordinates, with clear rewards and punishments, and she was smart and sensible. But after all, he is the master, and he always feels awe in his heart. But then, the little lady fell ill, and I was transferred to the inner room to serve for a few days. Once, I knocked over the hot water at the head of the bed, and the first thing the little lady asked was whether I was burned, you know, I am not a personal girl like Sister Dongmei. Rough people like us, what is this little thing, this pain is over. But the little lady's words, although it was plain, my eyes turned red on the spot."

The thin voice of surprise "ah", the cousin continued: "I haven't had time to reply, but Sister Dongmei gave me a slap in the face, do you know what the little lady said?" ”

Said in a thin voice: "What do you say?" Say you're supposed to be taught? ”

The cousin said, "Where! The little lady said to her, don't do it. Sister Dongmei was so aggrieved that tears came down on the spot. ”

The thin voice was surprised and said "ah": "Why haven't I heard my cousin talk about this, this is fresh, and the little lady also scolded Sister Dongmei for you?" ”

The cousin said, "Yes, the next day the little lady sent me to the outer courtyard." ”

The thin voice was a little angry: "Isn't that still angry for Dongmei, my cousin did a good job in the inner courtyard, but she went to the drudgery of the outer courtyard, but she was tired a lot." ”

The cousin sighed again: "When will you grow some eyes, what kind of character is Sister Dongmei, last time Hong'er soiled her clothes, and then she casually found a reason, so she sent out the yard." This time, she was trying to protect her master and teach her subordinates who were not good at doing things, but she was reprimanded, but in front of a little girl like me who couldn't get on the stage. ”

The thin voice looked a little scared: "Yes, Sister Dongmei is amazing, I'm afraid of her." ”

The cousin said: "So the little lady is obviously punishing me, but in fact she is protecting me, if you still stay in the room, I don't know what it will look like to be tossed." When I went out of the yard, no one bothered me, and it must have been the favor of the little lady. ”

The thin voice is still very suspicious: "Maybe I just punished you out." Can the little lady take care of us like that? , Dongmei is her personal girl, how can she not help Dongmei but protect her cousin? ”

The cousin said, "I don't understand the affairs of the masters. Although the little lady didn't say anything, I knew that she was protecting me. Anyway, it's a great blessing to work under such a master. ”

The thin voice was unconvinced: "That's what I said, but compared to before, the little lady looks like Mu Mu Dengden." ”

The cousin said angrily, "Besides, I'll tear your mouth." ”

"I heard what Madame asked Miss Xiao just now," said in a low voice.

Fang Xiao pricked up his ears.
