568 greedy, bumped into it yourself
Old lady Gu is sick!
It was just the time to meet the Five Princes!
What did the fifth prince do, and he was so angry that the old lady Gu was sick?
Everyone whispered and exchanged glances from time to time, although they didn't dare to say anything, but they had their own guesses in their hearts......
The fifth prince had better pray that the old lady was okay. Otherwise, even if others don't know what to say, everyone will also think that it is the fifth prince and make Old Lady Gu angry.
After receiving the news, as a filial son and daughter-in-law, no matter how much Uncle Gu and Mrs. Gu hated Old Lady Gu for getting sick at this time, they had to put down what they were doing and rush over.
"Chenghuan, why did you come back? What happened to the old lady? Uncle Gu and Second Master Gu saw Gu Chenghuan sitting in the outer room, and hurriedly asked.
"Uncle, father." Gu Chenghuan has grown a lot taller in the past half a year, and he has already taken off his youth, looking no different from a teenager, and he is still a little majestic when he sinks his face.
Gu Chenghuan stood in front of the two without a trace, and said respectfully: "The imperial doctor hasn't come yet, Sister Qiancheng is inside." ”
"A thousand cities? She understands what. "Uncle Gu's face was gloomy, and he rushed in without thinking about it, Second Master Gu and Mrs. Gu also followed, but they were blocked by Gu Chenghuan," Sister Qiancheng said, no one is allowed to go in and disturb. ”
Afraid that they would not be afraid, Gu Chenghuan added another sentence: "The fifth prince also agreed." ”
Uncle Gu paused, looked left and right, and asked, "What about the fifth prince?" ”
"The fifth prince personally went to the palace and asked his grandfather to ask for a doctor." Cheng Huan will not tell them, the reason why the five princes will personally go to ask for the imperial doctor is because of the sister of Qiancheng, the reason is that it can show the benevolence and filial piety of the five princes.
But Gu Chenghuan knew that his sister still didn't say a word: The five princes hurriedly went to the palace to ask for a doctor, so they confirmed the illness of the old lady who was angry with the five princes.
Although the uncle of the Gu family was stupid, he felt that it was wrong when he heard this, so he hurriedly said to the second master Gu: "Quick, go and chase the fifth prince, don't let him enter the palace in person to ask for the imperial doctor." ”
Turning his head, he said to Mrs. Gu again: "Tell the people outside, the old lady is just tired of traveling, not an illness, just need to have a good rest." ”
Second Master Gu and Mrs. Gu didn't understand it at first, but when they heard Uncle Gu say this, they reacted, and the two of them hurriedly went out and acted separately.
Inside the house, Gu Qiancheng was feeding the old lady ginseng tea, and when he heard the conversation outside, he couldn't help but show a light smile.
Her father still has a brain.
After drinking a cup of ginseng tea, the old lady was in much better spirits, closed her eyes and leaned on the head of the bed, and said a little tiredly: "Qiancheng, for the sake of grandfather's face, is it good to save a little face for the Gu family?" The old lady's words were almost pleading.
Gu Qiancheng paused, and then said casually: "Grandfather, I don't understand what you're talking about." "She won't admit it.
"I don't understand...... Forget it. The old lady closed her eyes tiredly, and her eyes seemed to have tears flashing. Gu Qiancheng was silent for a moment, and suddenly spoke, but he only had "I'm sorry".
"Grandfather, I'm sorry." It's too late, she's already shot.
"Forget it, they all asked for it." The old lady lowered her hand weakly, turned her face away and stopped looking at Qiancheng.
Gu Qiancheng didn't speak, just sat quietly on the edge of the bed, guarding the old lady......
Under Uncle Gu's strong scheduling, the impact of Old Lady Gu's illness has subsided, and everyone knows that it was the next person who passed the wrong word, and the old lady was just tired, not sick.
As for why did the five princes suddenly turn back?
No one asked about this, so the Gu family naturally didn't answer, and their faces were still happy. Towards noon, the ladies and ladies sat down separately and gathered together in twos and threes, discussing only clothes and jewelry, and not talking about anyone or anything.
The maids of the Gu family went back and forth in the garden, and everyone was busy. The old lady grabbed the time to prepare to show up, but before she reached the backyard, she was bumped into by a hurried little maid.
"Ouch......" the little maid screamed, fell to the ground, and a copper key in her hand flew out.
The key...... It's familiar.
The old lady's light flashed, and her eyes were beating with excitement.
"The key ......" The little maid didn't care about the pain, and she didn't care about apologizing to the old lady, and before she got up, she crawled to pick up the key, but she didn't want someone to step on the key faster than her.
"Old, old lady." The little maid raised her head, her face was pale, her eyes were confused, and she didn't dare to look directly at the old lady.
"What house are you from?" The little maid was already suspicious, and when she panicked, it was even more problematic.
"Return, return to the old lady's ...... Words, I, I'm the little girl in the big house. The little maid stammered, and did not dare to get up when she lay on the ground, and her fingers picked at the dirt, trying to pull out the key from the soles of the old lady's feet.
"The girl in the big house? Let's go down. The old lady just didn't see it, and the little girl's face became more and more ugly, "Old, old lady, I, my key is on the ground, you ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old lady, "Where did the little maid come from so ignorant of the rules, she covered her mouth and dragged it out." ”
"No......" The little maid screamed in fright, but halfway through the shout, she was covered by two stout grandmothers, and she was half-dragged and half-pulled.
The old lady glanced left and right to make sure that no one else saw it, so she bent down and picked up the key, wiped off the mud on it, looked at it carefully and was afraid that she would be dazzled, and handed it to the henchman beside her: "Guizhi, show me, is it the key?" ”
"The slave maid once saw it in the old lady's hand, and this key is right." After the maid named Guizhi saw it, she immediately returned it.
"My wife is really not dazzled, Dafang actually has the idea of playing that thing, it's really ......" The old lady shook her head, as if she was disdainful, but she turned around and said: "Let's go, let's go and see if this key can really open a private vault." ”
The key in the old lady's hand is the key to the private treasury where the old lady of the Gu family gave Gu Qiancheng a dowry.
During this period of time, in order to support the five princes, the Gu family had already emptied the family foundation, and the Gu family had the idea of Gu Qiancheng's dowry, but before the old lady Gu left Beijing, he put Gu Qiancheng's dowry into the private treasury, and no one could touch it.
The private warehouse is surrounded by walls on three sides, and the iron door is five centimeters thick, which cannot be opened by light knocking, and how ugly it is to knock open, but it is different with a key.
When you open the door, you have emptied everything inside, and outsiders don't know what's going on.
The old lady got the key, and the key was eager to go in and have a look, ready to take out the valuable things first, and then she handed it over to the five princes, who would be closer to her.
The old lady was very good at calculating, but she didn't know that there was a big conspiracy in the Gu family's private treasury, just waiting for the person who got the key to take the bait.
Although Gu Qiancheng didn't originally fight the old lady's idea, but the old lady was greedy, so she can't be blamed......
