Two days later, Zheng Rui still didn't have any news back, Gu Qingwan had some guesses in her heart, although she was a little worried and apprehensive, she could only live a step-by-step life.

Although Gu Qingwan is in the Rui Wang's Mansion, news has come out of the palace one after another in the past two days.

Queen Xiao is indeed pregnant, and now she has a thin heir, and this child is the first child conceived by the concubine after he succeeded to the throne, so she is very happy.

Hearing that Empress Xiao fainted in Ci'an Palace, Emperor Yongding naturally wanted to ask the reason. Knowing that this matter was provoked by Gu Qingwan, and after the Empress Dowager Chen interceded for her, she was punished for not being allowed to enter the palace, so she just asked a little more.

On the third day of the new year, Gu Qingwan finished cleaning up early in the morning, and took a carriage to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. This is something she mentioned to Mrs. Gu, but compared with the original plan, there is only one less Zheng Rui.

This time, she only brought red brocade, blue sulfur, Fuman, and Shuangquan, but her mother-in-law and guards brought a lot, and the scene and formation were quite big.

The Yuanhou Mansion had already opened the middle gate, and the carriage of the Ruiwang Mansion went all the way, because only the female dependents came, so they went straight to the inner courtyard. When she arrived at Yimen, Gu Qingwan got out of the carriage and saw that Mrs. Gu was already waiting outside Yimen.

Seeing Gu Qingwan get out of the carriage, Mrs. Gu hurriedly stepped forward to hold her hand: "It's cold, you hurry into the sedan chair, let's talk about it when we get to the house." ”

Gu Qingwan nodded, sat in the soft sedan chair of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, and headed towards Old Madam Gu's Tansong Courtyard.

The Tansong Courtyard was already full of people inside and out, and Mrs. Gu was waiting in the courtyard with the daughters of the Gu family. Hearing the maid reply that Princess Rui's sedan chair was about to arrive, Mrs. Gu was helped out of the courtyard by the jade bowl.

As soon as Gu Qingwan got off the soft sedan chair, Old Madam Gu walked forward quickly, looked up and down, and then sighed: "I haven't seen you for a few months, why have you lost so much weight." ”

Gu Qingwan looked at the old lady Gu with a loving face, and tilted her head a little uncomfortably.

She has a bad relationship with Mrs. Gu, and everyone knows it in the Gu family.

The tip of Old Madam Gu's heart is Gu Qingshu, who grew up beside her, and Miss Gu San's temperament is not very pleasing. However, Old Madam Gu is a concubine in the end, and Gu Qingwan is protected by Gu Qingshu. Although the temperament is a little more arrogant. But it didn't hurt for so many years.

Although she has survived, she can't deny the hardships she has had.

Besides, the He family's dowry fell into the hands of the Xiaosun family, and the old lady Gu knew it in her heart, but if it wasn't for Gu Qingwan to make trouble herself. Old Madam Gu would never mention a word more.

She and Mrs. Gu are now only left with face. Now Mrs. Gu is in this posture. It's not as clear as Mrs. Gu's interests.

Gu Qingwan couldn't find the words to deal with Old Madam Gu, so she simply skipped this sentence and said, "It's very cold outside." Let's go into the house and talk. ”

Old Madam Gu nodded busily, and was helped by Gu Qingwan and Mrs. Gu into Tansong Courtyard.

Except for the second aunt and grandmother Gu Qingya, the girls who married outside the Gu family all returned home today. Now that she ascended the throne, Enke was added this year, and Gu Qingya followed her husband Zhou Jue back to her ancestral hometown to prepare for the township test, but she didn't come back if the distance was too far.

Gu Qingshu brought Brother Qiao over, Gu Qingwan was surrounded by everyone in the Gu family and sat down, and then she saw Gu Qingshu sitting down.

Gu Qingshu's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and when she saw Gu Qingwan looking at Brother Qiao, she put Brother Qiao on the ground, patted Brother Qiao'er's face and pointed at Gu Qingwan and said, "Brother Qiao, go and show your third aunt." ”

Brother Qiao is at an age when he has just learned to walk, and his steps are not very neat. It's just that he didn't look scared, he really listened to Gu Qingshu's words, and stumbled towards Gu Qingwan.

Gu Qingwan didn't wait for him to get closer, so she took a few steps forward to catch Brother Qiao'er, only hugged him to her lap and sat down, looking at his dark eyes and smiling: "The last time I saw Brother Qiao'er, you didn't know how to leave, but now I don't remember me." ”

Brother Qiao naturally wouldn't answer, although he was not afraid of life, but he was hugged by Gu Qingwan for a while, and he was a little reluctant, so he struggled to come down.

Gu Qingwan took Brother Qiao to Mrs. Gu's hands, and sure enough, she saw that he was safe.

"Grandmother is doing at home? Last time, my grandmother invited me to come over in the next post, and I originally wanted to respond, but I was still sick at that time, and I didn't want to give my grandmother my illness, so I simply pushed it off. Gu Qingwan looked at Mrs. Gu who was sitting beside her, and patiently explained, "Grandmother shouldn't blame me." ”

Old Madam Gu hurriedly waved her hand: "Recuperation is the right thing, and it is better to recuperate than anything else." If it weren't for my illness, I would have personally visited you in Ruiwang's Mansion. In the past, when you were in the palace, your body was the strongest among your sisters, is it that the food in the palace is not suitable for the spleen and stomach. I have two cooks in my kitchen, and they are ...... at work."

Old Madam Gu's words continued, which meant to give away, which was a problem that she couldn't get rid of

Gu Qingwan hurriedly interrupted: "Grandmother is too worried, my body has been seriously ill since I left the pavilion, and it is not as good as before." Nowadays, there are imperial doctors in the house every month to support the pulse, and they have to take a few patches of medicine every month to get a little better. ”

Because of the old thing, Mrs. Gu had some sneers on her face, and quickly changed the topic.

"The fourth girl is also back today, but Brother Fang Qiao naughtily spilled some tea on her skirt, so she went back to the Splendid Pavilion to change her clothes, and she will come over later." Old Madam Gu's eyes lit up with love, "You sisters, there is not much time to get together, so you have to have a good chat." ”

As Mrs. Gu was talking, she saw Gu Qingrao, who had changed into a rose-red ruyi cloud pattern dress, walk in. She is supported by maids on her left and right, and she looks cautious even when she walks.

Gu Qingwan glanced at Gu Qingrao's belly, and sure enough, she saw that there was a slight bulge in the loose skirt, so she smiled and said, "Congratulations to the fourth sister, the fourth sister is a blessed person." ”

Although Gu Qingrao's husband's family is Qiao Shangshufu, her husband is the sixth master of the Qiao family. Not only is it a concubine, but the character is not very good.

At the beginning, Mrs. Gu should have done this in person, but it was just to pave the way for the family affair of the prince and Qiao Sixiang, the concubine of the Qiao family. What Qiao Liu's character is, it is not within the scope of Mrs. Gu's consideration.

Gu Qingrao's family affairs were in a hurry, and after marrying into Shangshu Mansion, she realized that life was really difficult.

The mother-in-law has a son-in-law, so naturally there are more daughters-in-law who are partial to the son-in-law, although she is kind to her on the surface, she is always suspicious. But my aunt is a person who can't get on the stage, seeing that Gu Qingrao is close to Mrs. Qiao, she secretly takes eye medicine in front of Qiao Liu, and she has made trouble with her.

It's not the right time for her to have a baby, and Mrs. Qiao will not let the eldest grandson of the Qiao family come out of her belly.

If Gu Qingwan said this in the past, Gu Qingrao would definitely feel that Gu Qingwan was humiliating her, and would only stab back without hesitation. She thinks so now, but she doesn't have the confidence to stand up to Princess Rui.

Life has already taught her to put away her paws, she is not the fourth girl raised by Gu Jiayou's mother, but Qiao Liu's grandmother

Obviously they are sisters, although the concubines are different, but the situation is not much different when they are in the boudoir. It's just that after leaving the cabinet, it is because of the concubine, one green cloud goes straight up and the other goes low into the dust.

Gu Qingrao looked at Gu Qingwan who was sitting on it, and suddenly felt that her heart was ripped out, that is, "Gu Qingwan got married before her, but her stomach moved first" This kind of thought did not make Gu Qingrao feel better.

"Sister Chengsan's auspicious words." Gu Qingrao smiled reluctantly, and then sat down with the help of the maid.

Gu Qingwan looked at Gu Qingrao, whose temperament had changed greatly, although she couldn't talk about sympathy, she was somewhat embarrassed.

"It's better for the sisters to be affectionate." Old Madam Gu laughed, "You are all girls who came out of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, so you will naturally have to watch and help each other in the future."

Gu Qingwan smiled, but didn't answer, only said a few words to Gu's third wife, Xue's family, and chatted with the sixth and seventh girls, and then said: "After talking for so long, I'm a little tired, let's disperse first." Cunke was in the outer courtyard, and asked his grandmother to send someone to look for him, our sister and brother hadn't seen him for a long time, but we missed him a little. ”

After speaking, he smiled apologetically at Gu Qingshu: "After I explain a few words to Cunke, I will go to talk to the eldest sister, I don't know if the eldest sister is convenient." ”

"If the third sister is tired, she will go back to Yuanxiang Pavilion to rest for a while. Don't be in a hurry to come and see me, when I put Brother Qiao to sleep, I will go to Yuanxiang Pavilion to find the third sister to talk. Gu Qingshu didn't care about this, but she was raised by Old Madam Gu's side, and she guessed that Old Madam Gu's mind was first-class, so she glanced at Old Madam Gu with her spare eyes.

Old Madam Gu's face was really a little unsightly.

Except for some concessions to Mrs. Gu, in the inner courtyard of the Gu family, Old Madam Gu said the same. On weekdays, if she is interested, none of the girls of the Gu family will accompany her happily, until she is a little tired, which makes everyone disperse.

But now Gu Qingwan is following her own temperament, and Old Madam Gu can't be angry yet.

"It's okay, I've been talking for so long, and I'm tired." Old Madam Gu endured it, and then said, "Yuanxiang Pavilion is very far away from here, you lie down in the compartment first, and I will send someone to find Cunke." ”

Gu Qingwan thought about it, but she didn't refute Old Madam Gu anymore, and only smiled: "Then thank you grandmother for your understanding." ”

Mrs. Gu answered, asked Mrs. Gu to send someone to prepare the banquet, and asked everyone to go back.

Gu Qingwan rested in the compartment for half an hour, then saw Hongjin come in with the curtain open, and said softly: "Princess Bing, the second master is here and is waiting outside." ”

Gu Qingwan, who was a little sleepy, suddenly came to her senses, immediately sat up from the couch, and said repeatedly: "Please come in soon." ”

As soon as the words fell, a person came in from the other end of the curtain, and walked quickly over the screen, but the voice came in: "Sister, this time is good." (To be continued......)
