mentioned the problem of stepchildren, and the eldest grandmother Lin Manjing was silent.

She was reluctant in her heart.

It's not that she dislikes the children of the third Gu Qing's house.

Lin Manjing is enthusiastic about this matter, and there are many reasons.

First of all, she felt that her father-in-law Gu Yantao was unwilling. My father-in-law is competitive and definitely wants his grandchildren. And Gu Chenzhi has no concubine, and his father-in-law will not let Gu Chenzhi delay and pass without a concubine.

Second, Gu Chenzhi and Gu Qingzhi discussed the matter of the children of the third family in private, and Gu Qingzhi agreed, but did not say it to Xia.

Xia's loves children the most, and she may not be willing to give it up. If she doesn't give it, and her in-laws don't want to, this matter will definitely not work.

If you think about it now, you will be disappointed in the future.

Lin Manjing had all the reservations in her heart.

Third, whether the nephew is a son or not, people's hearts are separated from their stomachs. The third child, Gu Qingzhi and Gu Chenzhi, are cousins, and there is another layer in between.

Lin Manjing has five daughters, and it will be a large amount of marriage in the future, and she will not be able to get more benefits from being her son. In the future, if the child is not good to the sisters, what will Lin Manjing and his wife do?

These things have to be considered.

The lesser of two evils, compared with stepchildren, Lin Manjing would rather take Gu Chenzhi's concubine.

No matter how bad the concubine is, she and her daughters are the same father and sister, better than her nephew. has been in charge since childhood, and the concubine does not dare to make trouble, and Lin Manjing and his wife will be able to enjoy their old age in peace in the future.

Moreover, the father-in-law and mother-in-law must also prefer to let Gu Chenzhi take a concubine. Compared with adoptiveness, taking concubines is more realistic. Lin Manjing didn't want to force herself to accept the reality when it came to the end. So she has been telling herself now that Gu Chenzhi must be a concubine, unless she can give birth to a son.

But Gu Chenzhi said that he was unwilling to take a concubine.

He said this more than once.

Lin Manjing didn't know if this was Gu Chenzhi's heart, or if he deliberately lied in order to coax himself.

No matter which one it is, the child who has a second room is not the best choice.

Father-in-law Gu Yantao will not agree, and neither will the third brother and sister Xia.

She didn't want to disturb her husband's interest, so she buried the truth in her heart, and smiled reluctantly: "I'm not in a hurry for such a while." Let's talk about it at the end of the year. ”

Gu Chenzhi nodded.

He didn't know his wife's concerns. But he was honestly intending to do so.

The snow outside is getting heavier and heavier.

The blizzard crushed the dead branches of the treetops, and with a loud bang, the branches covered with snow fell off the branches. Landing on ground with heavy snow accumulation. smashed a big hole.

The next wing. There was a faint sound of the piano, which was pleasant to the ear.

That's the eldest sister practicing the piano.

Sister Xi'er has a good talent, and she has only been practicing for two years. Already extremely skilled. Listening to her play the piano makes people feel Shu Tai wonderful, like being by the lake under the moon. The surface of the lake is calm and sparkling, and the drunken breeze carries the sweetness of the lake water and the faint fragrance of the herbs.

Listening to her daughter's piano sound, Lin Manjing was very proud in her heart.

Maybe she can't give birth to a son, but her daughter is not inferior to anyone.

Lin Manjing secretly clenched her fists.

Whether it's for the sake of her children or for herself, she needs to work harder.

She decided to meet Gu Jinzhi in person tomorrow to see if she could get the secret recipe. Even if there is no secret recipe, ask her if there is a way to cure it. Lin Manjing remembered that the Xia family in the second room couldn't have children for two years, and it was Gu Jinzhi who saw a doctor for her.

Later, Xia gave birth to two sons and a daughter.

Maybe, Gu Jinzhi really has some secret recipe, right?

********

Gu Jinzhi came out of his uncle's house, still snowing heavily.

The snow on the road is getting thicker and thicker, and it is no longer so easy to walk.

There are places on the streets where people have cleared snow and blocked the way.

Gu Jinzhi thought in his heart that Zhu Zhongjun didn't know where he went, and he was thinking about the children at home, so he went to the Gu family's old house absentmindedly.

Compared with the uncle's house, the door of the old mansion seems cold and lonely.

The heavy snow covered the danqi in front of the door, and also covered the high courtyard wall and the old plum tree in the corner, filling in the ravines and ravines of this world, and the line of sight became wider.

The guard who followed the car knocked on the door, and it took a while for someone to answer.

The little guy who opened the door heard that it was Princess Luyang, and his reaction was not fast, so he only said to wait a while, and he went in and said goodbye. Unlike the uncle's side, the little guys on the door are all clever.

The little maid held an umbrella for Gu Jinzhi and stood at the door for a while, and the footsteps of camels came from inside.

The second aunt and the third sister-in-law, Xia, greeted them directly at the gate.

Seeing the second aunt, Gu Jinzhi was taken aback: the second aunt was a lot older, and her sideburns were vaguely white, I don't know if it was white hair or snow.

The eldest aunt, sister-in-law and eldest brother have also changed, but it can make people feel that they are doing well, and a little old is also in line with the natural growth process. But the second aunt, like the queen Tan in the palace, has changed very much, which is surprising.

Her changes will make people can't help but think, what sins and suffering she has suffered over the years?

The surprise in Gu Jinzhi's eyes flashed, and she quickly covered it up and saluted the second aunt and third sister-in-law.

The second uncle's mother took her hand and said with a smile: "The princess's complexion is better than before." How have you been in Luzhou in the past few years? Are the prince and the children okay? ”

"It's all good, Second Aunt Lao is worried." Gu Jinzhi said with a smile, "Don't call me princess, it's all rusty." When I arrived at home, it was the aunt and grandmother of the Gu family, and you still called me Sister Jin as before, you just hurt me! ”

The second aunt and the third grandmother Xia both laughed and called Sister Jin.

Gu Jinzhi followed the second aunt and daughter-in-law to the main courtyard in their mule taming small oil cart.

The upper room of the main courtyard where the eldest aunt used to live, now the second aunt lives.

The courtyard was slightly repaired, the two wings in the southwest corner of the courtyard wall were demolished, and two trees were planted. The blizzard kept falling, and the treetops were covered with snow, and the species could not be seen.

The footprints of time can be found on the trunk of the thick and thin tree at the mouth of the bowl.

Gu Jinzhi sat down, drank tea, and talked to the second aunt.

The second aunt asked about the same as the eldest aunt.

She asked Gu Jinzhi how it was. How is Luzhou, how are the children of Zhu Zhongjun and Gu Jinzhi.

Coming to the flower of the capital, Gu Jinzhi has answered such a question countless times.

She didn't get tired of it, and answered the second aunt again.

The second aunt listened with a smile. She wasn't as casual as she used to be. She is now speaking more and more conservatively, if she is not too thin, she is a little graceful. This is something Gu Jinzhi didn't expect.

As he spoke, Gu Jinzhi heard the sound of the floor clock in the room.

It has been corrected.

In another half an hour, it will be dark, and Gu Jinzhi wants to rush back before dark. On the initiative to talk about the topic. Secretly pointed out his intention: "I heard that there is a daughter added to the third sister-in-law's room, I want to go and take a look"

She wanted to talk to her third sister-in-law, Xia, alone.

"Just let the nurse bring it over, how can you work the princess?" The second aunt said.

The second aunt was very polite to Gu Jinzhi.

She wasn't like that before.

Gu Jinzhi remembered the second aunt before. I don't know how heavy it is.

all these years. I heard that Concubine De didn't see her second aunt at all; and remarried to the fourth sister in Jiangning. Every time I write a letter, I write it to my eldest aunt and third sister-in-law, never to my second aunt; The fifth sister who married into the Su family is only close to her uncle's mother. Ignore her.

The second aunt seemed very unconfident

In front of Gu Jinzhi, the kind of caution and caution in her speech made people guess that she had been unsatisfactory all these years, and Gu Jinzhi couldn't bear it.

Gu Jinzhi would rather be the reckless second aunt, at least then she would have a comfortable life.

Her own family, no matter how many shortcomings she has, Gu Jinzhi hopes that she can live well.

Gu Jinzhi paused and sighed silently in his heart.

"The child is still young, so don't take it out on such a big snowy day. It's not too early, and it's time for me to go back. I won't come over to say goodbye to my second aunt when I turn around. Gu Jinzhi had to say directly.

The third sister-in-law added a new daughter in the winter of last year. She has two sons, and now her third child is a daughter, and she has all children.

Gu Jinzhi was very envious.

Her hand inadvertently touched her lower abdomen.

Gu Jinzhi also wants to have a daughter in the next child

The second aunt no longer insisted and sent Gu Jinzhi to the gate of the main courtyard.

The mother-in-law led the mule and waited in a small oil cart.

Gu Jinzhi and the third sister-in-law Xia got into the car.

"The seventh sister used to be good-looking, but now she looks even better." The third sister-in-law smiled.

Gu Jinzhi also smiled: "Third sister-in-law, our sister-in-law, do you still need to praise each other like this?" If you like me, I'll praise you too, endlessly. ”

The third sister-in-law laughed.

She took Gu Jinzhi's hand affectionately and said, "I'm sincere." I haven't seen you all these years, and you're still the same as before, haven't changed at all."

"Didn't you say I looked better?" Gu Jinzhi teased her.

The third sister-in-law smiled, gently pinched her face, and said, "You are narrow!" She said that the feeling Gu Jinzhi gave her had not changed, and she was still the same sister-in-law she used to be.

Gu Jinzhi also understood.

"Third sister-in-law, I really envy you, you have all children." Gu Jinzhi, "I've always wanted a girl"

"What's so good about a girl?" The third sister-in-law smiled, "Your third brother wants to have more sons." ”

"Third brother is at home today?" Gu Jinzhi asked.

"No. He is now helping your uncle take care of the housework and going to Tongzhou. I won't be back until a few days. The third sister-in-law said.

Gu Jinzhi nodded.

Their car soon arrived at the place where the third sister-in-law lived.

The third sister-in-law and the third brother still live in the place where they were then.

The old mansion of the Gu family has been repaired everywhere, and there are still some changes inside.

"If it's a good day, I'll take you around and take a look. The Jingyuan where you used to live, and the Zhufang Pavilion where your father-in-law and mother-in-law lived have all been demolished, and now a back garden has been built. "The third sister-in-law said to Gu Jin.

"Really?" Gu Jinzhi was a little surprised.

Speaking of the Jingyuan where he once lived, Gu Jinzhi still had some feelings.

She traveled from time to age six and has been living in the Silent Garden. It can be said that the time she spent in her second life pretending to be stupid and stunned was spent in Jingyuan.

She didn't have any special feelings originally.

But when I heard that it was demolished, I would never see it again, and I was a little reluctant in my heart.
