Chapter 188: Reimu (2)
After that day, Shen Bai no longer stayed in the courtyard to sleep all day, she got up earlier than Su Xiaoqiu, and went to ask Gu Tingge for peace in the morning and dusk, so two days later, Su Xiaoqiu no longer went to ask Gu Tingge for peace.
Gu Tingge is actually a quiet person, and his temperament is very serious and dull, Shen Bai can talk to him about very few topics, now she is heavy, and she can't find Gu Tingge to learn martial arts, and going to ask for peace every day makes the two get along a little awkward.
However, if Shen Bai goes out and walks around like this every day, his spirit will be better, and he will be able to eat a little more.
finally survived until Gu Hengzhou rested again, and Shen Bai stuck to him.
Only when she sees this person in front of her eyes, feels his body temperature, and hears his voice, will she feel at ease.
Occasionally, Shen Bai would also feel strange, she was obviously not an insecure person, and Brother Gu would never turn his back on her, how could she become like this?
Like last time, Gu Hengzhou spent all his vacations with Shen Bai, but this time he only had one day, he arrived home in the evening the first day, and Gu Hengzhou had to return to the camp after lunch the next day.
Shen Bai didn't say that he was reluctant to Gu Hengzhou, but he persistently sent him to the gate, Gu Hengzhou told her to eat well and let her pay attention not to catch a cold, Shen Bai listened obediently. Seeing Gu Hengzhou riding a horse and disappearing into the corner of the street, he refused to leave.
Inexplicably, she felt that the general's mansion was facing a cell, and a pair of invisible hands broke her wings and trapped her inside.
If she hadn't married Gu Hengzhou, if she hadn't been pregnant with a child, she could have changed into men's clothes and rode horses to play freely.
This thought suddenly popped up, Shen Bai's heart hurt slightly, his vision was blurred by the mist, and he was uncomfortable, the sound of the horse's hooves went and returned, Gu Hengzhou rode back, and under Shen Bai's surprised gaze, he turned over and dismounted, and handed her a pig-shaped noodle figure.
"Why are you back again?"
Shen Bai asked, the thought that just came out was shattered, Gu Hengzhou hugged her, and said in a deep voice: "Don't think nonsense, I've always been there." β
Shen Bai sniffed, suppressed his tears and nodded, Gu Hengzhou hugged her for a while or let go of her and turned to leave, and when he turned the corner, Shen Bai also turned around and walked back.
She Xiao thought about this man named Gu Hengzhou for more than ten years, and waited for two lifetimes to marry him as she wished, how could she feel that she had been wronged by marrying him?
Shen Bai scolded himself in his heart, but when he was about to arrive at the main courtyard, he heard someone hiding in the corner muttering.
The rules of the General's Mansion are not as strict as those of other families, and these subordinates are also defenseless, Green Jian accompanied Shen Bai out, and when he heard someone speak, he subconsciously wanted to scold, but Shen Bai shook his head to stop it.
The two subordinates said that Su Xiaoqiu entered the door of the General's Mansion, although he had been snubbed. But there was never any complaint, but it was Shen Bai, who didn't have the bearing of being a housewife at all, and didn't want to be filial to Gu Tingge on weekdays, but when he saw that Su Xiaoqiu and Gu Tingge had a good relationship, he pretended to go, which forced Su Xiaoqiu not to even go out of the courtyard gate, and his heart was really small.
The two compared Shen Bai and Su Xiaoqiu's family backgrounds and personalities.
Shen Bai and Su Xiaoqiu were both born in a scholarly family, and their family backgrounds are comparable, although Su Xiaoqiu has been living abroad for more than ten years, when he was taken back to the Su family, his bearing is no worse than that of any noble girl in Beijing, on the other hand, Shen Bai has been a young master for fifteen years. I did all the ridiculous things before I was able to recover my daughter's body.
If it weren't for Gu Hengzhou's stubbornness to marry her, I am afraid that no one in the entire Hanjing would be willing to marry her.
Shen Bai doesn't like to follow the rules, and after marrying Gu Hengzhou, she doesn't have a serious housewife, if it weren't for the first emperor giving Mama Ye to her and watching by her side, she didn't know how many jokes she would make, and she couldn't do anything with female red and qin, chess, calligraphy and painting.
And Su Xiaoqiu is different.
After being taken back to the Su family, the Su family invited the best teacher to teach her the rules and etiquette, she also has a medical skill, often in the city for free clinics, all year round also let the Su family boil soup medicine for the beggars in the city to prevent diseases, such a person, it is not an exaggeration to call the living Bodhisattva. is still so delicate, who can not like her?
The two had a heated discussion, but it seemed that Gu Hengzhou was a little ignorant, and he didn't even look at such a good girl, he had to like Shen Bai's thing.
Hearing this, Green Tip frowned, and couldn't help but want to go up and beat people, but Shen Bai directly pulled her back to the main courtyard.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Green Tip asked dissatisfiedly, "Madam, why did you stop the slave just now?" These subordinates chew their tongues behind their backs and talk about their masters in vain, so they should tear their mouths and sell them to the house! β
Green Jian was so angry that Shen Bai had regained his composure, and said lightly: "The mouth grows on others, and no one can care what others say, and if you rush up and beat someone, you will lose your identity." Why let others see the jokes? β
Shen Bai's tone was relaxed, as if he didn't care about these things at all, the green sharp eyebrows wrinkled even tighter, and said softly: "Madam, you weren't like this before. β
Shen Bai stood a little tired, supported his stomach with his hand, approached the house, and asked casually, "What was I like before?" β
After entering the house, Shen Bai first found a place to plug in the noodle people, Gu Hengzhou rarely gave her these gadgets, she didn't want to eat them like this.
Green Tip chased after him and said: "Before Mrs. married the general, she has always had a clear love and hate, if someone dares to chew the root of her tongue in front of Mrs., Mrs. will definitely step forward and kick people over, and teach them a hard lesson. β
Put the noodle man away, Shen Bai sat on the bed with his stomach up, heard Lu Jian's words, and recalled his previous appearance, before he could come up with a reason, Mama Ye walked in with the tonic soup.
As if she already knew what was going on, she scolded Greentip with a calm face: "What do you know? Since Mrs. is married to the general, she is no longer the lady who can act recklessly in the past, and now Mrs. is still pregnant, what does it look like to start making trouble if she doesn't agree? If something goes wrong with the fetus in the womb, who can afford it? β
Green Jian was so disciplined by Mama Ye that she didn't dare to speak, and Shen Bai also broke her thoughts and reacted.
Oh, yes. She's a mother, how can she still be like before?
Shen Bai gently stroked his stomach twice, and said softly: "What Mama said is that even if it is for the sake of the child, I will not mess around." β
Green Jian wanted to say something more, but was glared at by Mama Ye and had to lower her head.
is also idle at home, Shen Bai asked Mama Ye to take a needle and thread to learn to be a female celebrity.
She is very clumsy, and has never had much patience, poking and playing with embroidered bandages, she can tie her hands eight hundred times a day, and she can't embroider anything on the embroidered bandages, but no one urges her to embroider something, and it doesn't hinder anything.
Xu is she was too pitiful to be guarding the door that day, and Gu Hengzhou came back from leave a few days later.
Also coming back with him was Zhou Jue, Zhou Deshan is also old, and now the Hanjing Captain Camp is under Zhou Jue's control, and the temperament of both of them is much calmer than when they were in Tai Academy.
When they arrived home in the evening and entered the yard, Shen Bai had just finished practicing today's female celebrity and was lying on the recliner in the yard to play.
Seeing them, Shen Bai immediately showed a look of joy, but he couldn't get up because his body was too heavy.
Gu Hengzhou quickly stepped forward to help her up, and Zhou Jue still joked with her like that: "If you don't get pregnant, you can't even get up, it's too useless." β
Shen Bai didn't think about it, and replied directly: "You can do it, you can also have one." β
"What are you talking about, I'm a man, how can I get pregnant?" Zhou Jue retorted with a smile, didn't get angry with Shen Bai, and took out a big food box from behind, "But I'm a good man and don't fight with women, this is the signature dish I just ordered from the Crane Chasing Tower, for my nephew's sake, let you eat more in a while." β
Shen Bai rolled his eyes with a smile, his mood improved again, but his fingertips were pinched by Gu Hengzhou, Gu Hengzhou's face darkened, and he asked in a deep voice: "Why is your hand hurt like this?" β
Like a child who has made a mistake, Shen Bai hurriedly hid his hand behind his back, and said sneeringly: "I was bored at home and practiced female red, and accidentally pricked a few times. β
Zhou Jue didn't have any eyesight at all, and saw Gu Hengzhou's serious expression. Pulled Shen Bai's hand out, the five fingers of her left hand were swollen, and she could faintly see the dense needle holes on it, and those who didn't know were afraid that she thought she had been tortured.
"I'll go, you're crazy, learn a female red and hurt yourself like this?" Zhou Jue said exaggeratedly, without waiting for Shen Bai to argue for himself, he continued, "You tied yourself like this just to make clothes for us, it's too different from yourself." β
"What clothes?"
Shen Bai asked rhetorically, only then did he notice that the clothes on Zhou Jue and Gu Hengzhou were purple, and the materials used in the clothes were average, but the embroidery patterns on them were quite exquisite, Zhou Jue's clothes were embroidered with koi, and Gu Hengzhou was embroidered with Pixiu.
The embroidery of the embroidery girl is quite exquisite, the koi and the pixiu are as if they are alive, and the cut is quite fitting, lining the two of them to stand tall, and the jade tree is in the wind.
Gu Hengzhou frowned slightly, Zhou Jue didn't realize that something was wrong, pointed to his clothes and said, "That's it, didn't you do a good job of sending people to the camp?" I've known you for so many years, and this is the first time you've sent something to me, and I'm very touched. β
Zhou Jue kept muttering, and Shen Bai looked at the clothes on him and Gu Hengzhou's bodies, and his head tingled.
She has just started to learn to be a girl, and she can't make such a beautiful dress at all, it's not what she did.
Gu Hengzhou was wearing clothes made by other women!
This cognition pierced Shen Bai's brain like a needle, and his stomach swelled, Shen Bai couldn't help but turn his head and vomit, Gu Hengzhou grabbed her shoulders and half-hugged her, but she felt even more disgusting.
"Let go of me!"
Shen Bai roared, trying to break free, Gu Hengzhou didn't let go, directly picked her up by the waist, and carried her into the house and put her on the bed despite her struggle.
"Bastard, don't touch me!"
Shen Bai scolded angrily, Gu Hengzhou stopped her with one hand and didn't allow her to move, and with the other hand, he quickly unbuttoned her clothes, and said in a deep voice: "Don't make trouble, I'll take off my clothes immediately and let people burn them!" β
His tone was cold, with unquestionable determination, and Shen Bai shed tears inexplicably. He asked complainingly: "You know that I didn't make this dress, why do you still wear it back for me to see?" β
"I know you didn't make the clothes, but I don't know you didn't have them delivered." Gu Hengzhou explained that Zhou Jue came in from outside, and seeing that Gu Hengzhou's clothes were almost finished, he hurriedly exited the room, muttering with a broken mouth: "No, the meal hasn't been eaten yet, and it's not dark, so you're not in such a hurry, right?" β
Gu Hengzhou ordered in a cold voice: "Come in!" β
Zhou Jue carried the food box into the house, and was asked by Gu Hengzhou to take off the clothes.
Zhou Jue finally realized that the situation was wrong, put the food box on the table, took off his clothes and only wore his underwear and pants, Gu Hengzhou asked Gu San to come in and take the clothes to Yazhi Courtyard to burn them. Zhou Jue had probably guessed what was going on, and he was still a little sorry when he looked at the clothes.
Angry is angry, the clothes are right.
Gu Si took clean clothes and came over to change them into the two of them, Shen Bai's mood finally calmed down, he felt that he was making a little fuss, and smiled to accompany Gu Hengzhou and Zhou Jue to eat, Zhou Jue ordered a plate of West Lake vinegar fish, which tasted very good, and Shen Bai ate a small half of it for face.
After eating, Zhou Jue left, Gu Hengzhou explained to Shen Bai carefully, the clothes were sent by the housekeeper, and the housekeeper said that Shen Bai was a girl at home, but it seemed that he should not learn well.
Gu Hengzhou subconsciously thought that Shen Bai was not good at learning and gave up, so he went to the ready-to-wear shop to buy new clothes and asked the housekeeper to send them. It can be regarded as an expression of his heart, Gu Hengzhou also wanted to make Shen Bai happy when he came back, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
After knowing the truth, Gu Hengzhou immediately made a judgment and asked Gu San to take the clothes directly to Yazhi Courtyard to burn, giving Su Xiaoqiu the most direct warning.
Gu Hengzhou has done this part, Shen Bai naturally doesn't want to continue to lose her temper, she also apologized to Gu Hengzhou for admitting her mistake, Gu Hengzhou's vacation time is not long, and neither of them wants to waste it on anger, and they stick together sweetly.
Early the next morning, Gu Hengzhou left after breakfast.
In the afternoon of the same day, someone from the palace sent a message that there was a small group of enemy troops from the west of the border again. Afraid that something would happen, Zhao Che asked Gu Hengzhou to lead the troops to the border pass.
This time, it will take two months to go back and forth, Shen Bai's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and when Gu Hengzhou comes back, maybe the child will be born.
The holy decree was issued in a hurry, and it was not a big war, Gu Hengzhou did not go home, and directly led the troops to pull out, Shen Bai received the order, and was inexplicably a little uneasy.
However, Gu Hengzhou was not worried about Shen Bai, and before leaving, he told Zhou Jue to take care of Shen Bai more, Zhou Jue was not afraid of trouble, and came to see Shen Bai twice in three days to talk to her to relieve her boredom.
knew that Gu Hengzhou would not come back for a long time. A day has become a very long time for Shen Bai, but she can calm down at this time to learn from female popularity, and also make time to read medical books.
Just like that, a month passed, on this day Shen Bai sat by the window reading a book, and the green tip came in from outside with the tonic soup, and when Shen Bai put down the book and reached out to receive the tonic soup, the green tip whispered: "Madam, the slave feels that you seem to be less and less like yourself." β
The soup is an old hen specially boiled by Mama Ye, and the process of boiling this soup is particularly complicated, and it takes several hours to boil such a bowl, but Shen Bai always wants to vomit not long after drinking, and it is a waste of a lot.
At this time, Shen Bai's appetite was okay, so he took the soup and took a sip. Wen smiled and asked, "Who am I like like myself?" β
Greentip frowned and said, "The slave doesn't know for sure. β
Shen Bai smiled and continued to drink the soup, Mama Ye came back from outside, still holding a particularly gorgeous dress in her hand, her eyes lit up when she saw it, and she asked curiously: "Why did Mama make new clothes for Madame again, Madame will give birth soon, and when she loses weight, she will not be able to wear these clothes." β
Mama Ye was happier than usual, and said to Shen Bai: "This is what the general asked for his wife, the general went to the border pass to defeat the enemy army in Yuexi, stabilize the peace of the border pass, and he will be ready to come back in the next two days, His Majesty has received good news, and has given a lot of rewards, and there will be a celebration banquet in the house tomorrow, and Mrs. will wear this dress to attend, and other noble ladies will definitely be very envious." β
This time it was a small group of enemy troops to make a rebellion, and it was inevitable that Gu Hengzhou would win, so the clothes had been made by the Internal Affairs Office a long time ago, and there were pearl agate of high quality on them, which was extravagant and compelling, and was completely worthy of the identity of the general's wife.
Lujian also rejoiced, and said to Shen Bai: "Madam, if it goes on like this, it won't be long before the general will be able to ask for an order for Madame, so that Madame will be the most precious in front of these ladies of the family in Beijing, except for the queen and princess, no one should dare to be disrespectful to Madame." β
Shen Bai was not interested in the edict, but when he heard that Gu Hengzhou was coming back, he also had a smile on his face.
There is nothing interesting in the General's Mansion, her life is extremely boring, and only when Gu Hengzhou is there can she have a little color.
The body became heavier and heavier, Shen Bai became more and more sleepy, and on the second day, she slept until three o'clock in the morning, and Mama Ye and Lujian helped her put on the clothes, carefully combed her hair and makeup, and dressed up beautifully before going out.
The celebration banquet was set at noon, and the male and female dependents were not at the same table, and Gu Tingge had already sent someone to spread the word, saying that the male guests were all military generals and were not informal. Shen Bai didn't have to go over to say hello, so Mama Ye and Lu Jian directly helped Shen Bai to the back garden to accompany those female dependents.
Autumn is crisp, the temperature is very pleasant, the weather is good today, just walked to the back garden, Shen Bai heard a burst of laughter, the invited ladies and ladies sat together in groups of three or five to talk and laugh, as soon as Shen Bai arrived, they immediately got up to say hello, Shen Bai responded with his head bowed, somehow, he was lazy with sunburn, and the corners of his lips couldn't be raised.
Mama Ye and Lujian helped her sit down in the main seat, and Shen Bai greeted her politely, so that they did not have to be restrained, and then held their chins in a daze.
The women got together to talk about some short gossip in the parents, Shen Bai had never been interested in these, and felt that this celebration banquet was really inexplicable, it was Gu Hengzhou who went to the border to fight and was affected, he didn't come back, and he didn't know what other people were celebrating together.
Shen Bai behaved very indifferently, but she was heavy, and she was favored by Gu Hengzhou, and no one dared to say anything about her.
The banquet soon began, and the servants served the food in an orderly manner, and Shen Bai unexpectedly found that there was a plate of West Lake vinegar fish on the table in front of him.
The taste is similar to that made by the chef in the Crane Chasing Tower, which does not make Shen Bai feel sick to his stomach at all, and the amount of sweet soup and dim sum placed next to him is less than usual. The plate is particularly delicate and cute, and it makes people very appetizing at first glance.
Shen Bai tasted the sweet soup first, and secretly thought that today's chef was quite good at plating.
Just thinking about it, the guests below were also talking about something in each other's ears, Shen Bai swallowed the sweet soup and asked curiously, "What's wrong?" But what's wrong with the food? β
Everyone shook their heads and looked at each other for a while, and a girl in pink stood up and said happily: "Mother and sister are saying that the general's wife is very thoughtful, and she knows the preferences of all of us, and gives each table a different dish according to our preferences. β
After the girl finished speaking, a lady immediately said, "Yes, I just had a cough and asthma a few days ago, and my throat hurts a lot. Madame made the loquat dew boiled, and I felt much more comfortable in my throat after drinking. β
After this man finished speaking, the others immediately followed suit, saying that they had all kinds of physical problems, but the food that was good for their health was very considerate on the table.
These people were full of praise for Shen Bai, but these words turned into sharp ridicule in Shen Bai's ears.
Shen Bai didn't do these things at all, she was very lazy, she only heard that there was a celebration banquet today, but she didn't manage this banquet, and slept until three o'clock in the morning.
And she couldn't even recognize the faces of these ladies, where did she get the energy to search for their pains and diseases?
The hand on her lap slowly clenched into a fist, the rise and fall of her chest increased, Shen Bai felt a raging anger burning in her chest, she didn't know why she suddenly became so irritable and irritable. She didn't manage the banquet, maybe it was Mama Ye and Green Tip who helped her deal with these things?
Shen Bai tried to comfort himself, but a puzzled voice suddenly sounded and asked, "Madam, why don't you see Xiaoqiu?" She was given marriage by His Majesty and married into the General's Mansion as an equal wife, so she wouldn't even be qualified to participate in the banquet, right? β
Following the prestige, Shen Bai saw Su Liu's face, she was Su Xiaoqiu's mother, and it was normal to care about Su Xiaoqiu's whereabouts.
Shen Bai sneered and said: "My sister married into the General's Mansion as a flat wife, and naturally she is also the master of the General's Mansion, I didn't restrict her freedom, whether she attends the banquet or not, when she attends is her own business, if Mrs. Su is not at ease, she can go and see for herself, why bother asking here." β
With a nameless fire in his heart, Shen Bai's tone was quite unkind, Su Liu's face sank, and these ladies of the family also changed their faces, and their eyes were not quite the same as just now, as if Shen Bai was the only one in the General's Mansion and bullied Su Xiaoqiu.
The anger in her chest surged even more, and Shen Bai even tasted the fishy sweetness between her breaths, she couldn't control herself a little, and was about to let Mama Ye and Lujian send her back to rest, Su Xiaoqiu took the maid to the table in a low-key manner.
It is not true to say that it is low-key, after all, as soon as Su Xiaoqiu appeared. All eyes fell on her.
Shen Bai was wearing the gorgeous clothes that Gu Hengzhou asked for her, which was noble and dignified, and she was wearing a rouge long skirt, without any embroidery on the dress, which was so pure that it was almost bland, which was in stark contrast to Shen Bai.
Shen Bai is like a peacock with an open screen, showing off the favor he has received everywhere, while Su Xiaoqiu is like a quiet and beautiful water lily, not fighting or grabbing, and has its own dark fragrance.
Su Xiaoqiu sat down, first apologized softly to everyone, saying that he was late because he had something to delay, and then apologized to Shen Bai, telling Shen Bai not to be angry and doing all the etiquette that should be done.
Shen Bai couldn't say a word, everyone looked at her and then at Su Xiaoqiu, obviously feeling that Su Xiaoqiu was more advanced and retreating, and she had more of a housewife's demeanor than Shen Bai.
Su Liu's greetings with Su Xiaoqiu were a few words, and the little maid beside Su Xiaoqiu suddenly said with red eyes, this banquet was all managed by Su Xiaoqiu, Su Xiaoqiu stayed up for several days and nights to personally collect the preferences of the ladies, and personally prepared a menu for the kitchen, so that this banquet could be made so perfect, and said that Su Xiaoqiu had done a lot for Gu Hengzhou and the General's Mansion these days, but Gu Hengzhou had never even stepped into the door of Yazhi Courtyard, which was really aggrieved.
The maid shouted for Su Xiaoqiu, and was stopped by Su Xiaoqiu before she finished speaking, Su Xiaoqiu told everyone that Shen Bai was very good, she never felt sorry for her, she did not suffer any grievances, but the more she said this at this time, the more these people felt that Shen Bai treated her badly.
Shen Bai sat there, feeling that everyone's eyes were piercing her like needles, she was extremely angry, and she wanted to tear Su Xiaoqiu's calm and calm in public, so that everyone could see Su Xiaoqiu's true face.
This thought became stronger and stronger, Shen Bai lost her mind, and by the time she reacted, she had already rushed to Su Xiaoqiu and slapped Su Xiaoqiu to the ground.
Shen Bai didn't know how she did it, and by the time she reacted, Su Xiaoqiu had already fallen to the ground. And her palms were hot and painful, which showed how heavy the force was just now.
There was a commotion at the banquet, there was a crowd of people around, Shen Bai couldn't hear anything, Mama Ye and Lu Jian rushed up to protect her as soon as possible, and Shen Bai hadn't come back to her senses yet.
She felt that something was wrong, how could she be so unstable and beat Su Xiaoqiu in front of so many people?
Mama Ye said in her ear with some disappointment: "Madam, you are too impulsive, if you slap this slap, other ladies will definitely laugh at you behind your back." β
Shen Bai couldn't listen to it, his mind was messed up, and he asked after a while: "Green tip, what did you say about me yesterday?" β
Greentip was suddenly taken aback by the roll call and asked, "Did the slave say something that shouldn't have been said yesterday?" β
There is no such thing as not to be said.
Shen Bai shook his head, remembering that Green Jian said yesterday that she was less and less like herself.
At this moment, she suddenly realized that she was indeed less and less like herself, she was like Su Xiaoqiu!
She learns from female popularity, reads medical books, becomes more and more quiet and introverted, abandons everything that originally belonged to Shen Bai, and she is learning from Su Xiaoqiu unconsciously.
She was very scared, because Gu Hengzhou had married Su Xiaoqiu for two lifetimes, she was afraid that Su Xiaoqiu was Gu Hengzhou's destiny, she was afraid that everything was just her own forcible request, she was afraid that what Gu Hengzhou liked was actually Su Xiaoqiu, and she couldn't stop Su Xiaoqiu from approaching Gu Hengzhou, so she could only let herself become Su Xiaoqiu.
Fishy sweetness wells up in his throat. Shen Bai pushed Mama Ye away and walked forward by herself, suddenly feeling ridiculous.
She tried everything possible to marry Gu Hengzhou, was it just to turn herself into another person? How is this different from killing herself?
Within two steps, Shen Bai suddenly coughed, spurted out a mouthful of black blood, his legs were weak, and he was about to kneel on the ground, when a man in a black robe who couldn't see his face clearly suddenly appeared in front of her on his knees, holding her steadily.
