At the end of June, the sun is on fire.

Gu Jinzhi sweated all the way from home to the old house.

The clothes were sticky and uncomfortable.

The eldest aunt's maid Chun Qiao came to pick up Gu Jinzhi.

Chunqiao asked the two rough mothers-in-law to carry the rattan chairs.

Gu Jinzhi sat on a rattan chair and swayed to the upper room of the main courtyard.

The eldest aunt put the ice on the east room, and the cool air gently brushed her cheeks, as if a hungry and thirsty person had met the elixir and jade liquid. Gu Jinzhi slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "It's really hot today. ”

"Isn't it?" The eldest lady smiled and said, "I feel sweaty when I sit in this room, let alone under the poisonous sun?" The green brick road is hot, but I am afraid that the horse's hooves will be burned. Why are you so hot to come to see your aunt? ”

Gu Jinzhi smiled and sat down.

The maid brought her a glass of cold sour plum soup.

Gu Jinzhi shook his head and said with a smile: "I just came in from under the poisonous sun, and I was dyed with heat." This room is cold, and if you drink this cold thing, the heat and poison will all accumulate in your heart, and you should be sick. Just pour a cup of warm tea. ”

The eldest lady smiled and said that she was exquisite.

The maid really made tea again.

Gu Jinzhi took a sip and moistened his throat.

"Your mother called you over?" The eldest lady asked her again.

Gu Jinzhi shook his head, put down the teacup, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, I just want to come and see the eldest aunt." Yesterday, the fourth sister went to my place. I thought, on such a hot day, the fourth sister can come out to my mother to say goodbye, this is her filial piety. With my sister leading the way, I don't dare to be unfilial, so I came to say hello to my aunt. ”

The eldest lady knew the purpose of Gu Jin's coming.

Gu Shanzhi hit a wall here with the eldest lady. went to find Gu Jinzhi.

She knew that Gu Jinzhi had a jade plate for walking in the palace.

It was given to her by the emperor in the early years.

"Your fourth sister went to you, what did she say?" The eldest lady stopped going around in circles, and asked Gu Jinzhi directly, "Did you say that you should enter the palace again and take a look at the mother and other things for her?" ”

Gu Jinzhi nodded and said with a smile: "Auntie, she came to you first, right?" ”

The eldest lady did not deny it.

“…… The fourth sister said that she always has bad dreams these days, and there is often a mother in her dreams. She was very worried about her mother and asked me to go into the palace to greet her. Sue sù Niangniang. She misses her mother very much. I thought, if it was normal, it would be okay for me to go for her.

It's just that before that, the prince had just built a mansion. The prince's speech has not yet been decided. The fourth brother-in-law studied at the Hanlin Academy again. If I went to the palace before. Niangniang only asked me to go and say for the fourth brother-in-law. I thought it was home. At that time, the mother revealed a few words to the father-in-law of the celebrant supervisor, and the fourth brother-in-law will definitely be elected.

But is this the meaning of the fourth sister, or the meaning of the fourth brother-in-law? I don't quite understand.

I'm afraid I'll help. On the contrary, he couldn't get a good sentence, so he rejected the fourth sister, saying that Niangniang was good in the palace. The fourth sister didn't give up very much, and said that she would come to see me again today. I thought that since she was coming, it would be better to go to my aunt and ask for an understanding. "Gu Jin's way.

The eldest lady shook Gu Jinzhi's hand lightly and said gratefully: "You kid is cautious, fortunately you came to sue me." You remember my words, don't meddle in this matter. ”

Gu Jinzhi understood everything.

She nodded and said, "I know the eldest aunt." If the fourth sister comes to me again, I will tell her to talk to the eldest aunt. ”

The eldest lady nodded: "That's it!" Sister Jin, the eldest aunt also said something to you: From beginning to end, your fourth sister used us as fools. The Yuan family is behind the scenes, with wishful thinking, let us be a big wrongdoer. ”

Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "It turns out that the Yuan family didn't speak, it's all the meaning of the fourth sister?" They don't want to owe us a favor, and they want us to take the initiative to help. Does the fourth brother-in-law still hold a grudge against me for saying that he may not be able to have children? ”

The eldest lady sighed helplessly.

Gu Jinzhi said again: "The fourth brother-in-law is too strong, and the fourth sister loves her brother-in-law too much." ”

In her words.

Everything is because Gu Shanzhi loves Yuan Yuye too much.

And Yuan Yuye is too arrogant.

"Auntie, since I have made it clear, I am relieved." Gu Jinzhi smiled again, "I haven't been here for a long time, I'll take a look at the eldest sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law." ”

The eldest lady nodded and told her to go quickly.

"Eat here at noon, and I'll ask someone to prepare your favorite cold powder tofu." The eldest lady said.

Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "Thank you, auntie." ”

She was accompanied by a maid to hold an umbrella and go to the yard of her grandmother Lin Manjing.

It was too hot, and when Gu Jinzhi arrived at Lin Manjing's yard, his face was so hot that he turned red.

Lin Manjing looked at it and felt distressed: "On such a vicious day, why did the seventh sister come?" Come in and sit, sit down. ”

Then he also asked someone to take the Bingpai fruit for Gu Jinzhi to eat.

Gu Jinzhi excused himself, and said what he said to the eldest lady again, and told Lin Manjing.

Lin Manjing hurriedly asked someone to take the fruit down and replaced it with a cup of warm tea.

“…… Your eldest brother is in the countryside, and he cooks and does laundry by himself? Lin Manjing said a few words, and then turned the topic to Gu Chenzhi.

In the spring, Gu Jinzhi went to live in the countryside for a few days, brought some seeds for the eldest brother to the sister-in-law, and let the sister-in-law plant them in the yard by herself.

It's all vegetable seeds from the countryside.

That time, the sister-in-law pulled Gu Jinzhi and talked all morning.

She asked Gu Jinzhi to tell her everything about her eldest brother.

Now, she started asking again.

That's a question she asked last time.

She really misses her big brother.

Gu Jinzhi replied seriously: "Yes." Countrymen cook and do their own laundry. The folks like big brother. Aunt Li often delivers food to her eldest brother and helps him with laundry. Big brother won't let ......"

Last time, Gu Jinzhi introduced Aunt Li carefully.

This time, Lin Manjing didn't ask Aunt Li.

She asked all the details. Listening to Gu Jinzhi's words, her eyes were burning and she was full of expectations.

"There is still more than half a year, and when the eldest brother's filial piety period expires, he will return to the city." Gu Jinzhi comforted Lin Manjing, "Sister-in-law can also write a letter to eldest brother." ”

"What letter to write?" Lin Manjing was a little embarrassed and said with a smile. "He's doing well in the country, so I'm relieved. My family has to send them rice every month, and I'm embarrassed to ask. ”

Gu Jinzhi smiled.

Lin Manjing's face was slightly red.

After chatting for about an hour, the heat on Gu Jinzhi's body dissipated.

She smiled and said to Lin Manjing: "I haven't been here for a long time, I don't know if the third sister-in-law and Brother Kai are okay......"

"Okay." Lin Manjing smiled, "Brother Kai can already walk and call his mother." ”

Brother Kai turned 18 in early May this year.

Because the Gu family is in filial piety, Brother Kai'er's washing, full moon and first year are all simple.

Although Brother Kai is the eldest grandson of the next generation of the Gu family.

The eldest grandmother asked the nurse to take care of her sister and sister, and took Gu Jinzhi with her. Go to the yard of the third grandmother.

The third young master, Gu Qingzhi, was also at home.

At the moment he is teasing his son.

Grandma and Gu Jin came. Makes him a little embarrassed.

The secular thinks that if you don't get your grandson and play with your son, it seems that you have lost your dignity.

The third grandmother came out of the back room and saw Gu Jinzhi. Daxi: "The seventh sister is here?" Such a hot day. You're not afraid of getting poisoned. ”

She was very kind to Gu Jinzhi.

Then. She asked Gu Jinzhi what she was doing, "What kind of urgency is running over in such a poisonous sun?" This time you won't be allowed to go. Stay here overnight and come back tomorrow morning when the heat goes down. ”

Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "When the sun sets, I'll go back, I'm afraid it won't work to stay overnight." My father broke his leg, and he also needs to be served. ”

She made an excuse.

Although this excuse is false, it is her filial piety, and it is not good to keep her anymore.

The third grandmother asked her what she was doing again.

Gu Jinzhi had no choice but to say: "Tell the eldest aunt something." ”

She didn't know about the fourth sister, and the eldest aunt was not going to sue the family, so she spoke vaguely.

The third grandmother stopped asking.

When it was almost lunch, the third grandmother left Gu Jinzhi and the eldest grandmother to eat.

"The eldest aunt said that lunch was prepared at noon." Gu Jin said, "I'd better go over." ”

The third grandmother straightened her clothes and said with a smile: "I will also go to the eldest aunt's place to have a meal." ”

She wanted to send Gu Jinzhi over.

The eldest grandmother smiled: "Since that's the case, I'll go too." When we turned around, our mother should scold us for being blind, and then coaxed. ”

"No matter, no matter." The third grandmother smiled, "I have to take a breath of cold water." ”

The three sisters-in-law all laughed.

They took Gu Jinzhi and went to the eldest lady's upper room.

Just at the gate of the courtyard, I actually met Mrs. Yuan.

met each other, except for Gu Jinzhi, they were all a little surprised.

Mrs. Yuan was busy saluting everyone.

Gu Jinzhi and others also returned the salute.

And the four of them went into the courtyard of the eldest lady together.

The third grandmother glanced at the eldest grandmother and asked her with her eyes if she knew what Mrs. Yuan was doing. The eldest grandmother understood, shook her head slightly, and then glanced at Gu Jinzhi.

The third grandmother vaguely guessed a few points, so she didn't squint and entered the main courtyard.

"Mrs. in-laws, why did you rush over at this point?" The eldest lady pretended to be stunned, "Oh, I didn't have enough food in the kitchenette today." ”

The third grandmother hurriedly said: "We have also prepared it over there, let me bring it over, and I will eat it." They are all relatives, no need to be polite. ”

Usually prepare meals, but also to cook more.

With the addition of Gu Jinzhi and Mrs. Yuan, the eldest lady's meal is still enough.

The eldest lady said that it was not enough, she wanted to send away the eldest grandmother and the third grandmother.

The third grandmother didn't want to leave.

She is more concerned about the four girls. Seeing Mrs. Yuan coming, it was naturally a matter for the four girls, otherwise they would not have arrived at this point.

Before the eldest grandmother could speak, she snatched the third grandmother's voice, and she had to stand behind and look at her mother-in-law's face.

If the eldest lady is really embarrassed, the eldest grandmother will take the third grandmother away.

Fortunately, the eldest lady didn't care very much.

She smiled and said, "In this case, I will snub my in-laws today." ”

"Where, where." Mrs. Yuan said with a smile.

She sat down and gently wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief.

There was no timidity in her eyes, and she looked at such a big family as the Gu family calmly.

has been an in-law for so long, and the eldest lady has never seen Mrs. Yuan feel a little weak.

Coming out of a merchant's family, she is old-fashioned, has read books, and has knowledge, this kind of woman, even the eldest lady has to admit that she is defeated.
