Mrs. Mu sent someone to call Mu Hongshang to come back to write a fan, the second lady went back to get the fan in person, the third lady was responsible for the lunch banquet, and was busy going to the Chengfeng Building in the northwest corner of the garden to arrange, the Qingzhou cook in the fourth lady's small kitchen made fried cakes, and was busy Zhang Luo to go to the children who flew kites in the garden. The housekeeper is still asking for the right cards, receiving the zongzi and reward money from each room, and the concubines are very busy, so they stand up together and say goodbye.

When she was about to go out, Mrs. Mu seemed to suddenly remember, and called out to Mrs. Anguo: "Eldest daughter-in-law, Miss Gu suddenly gave Hongshang a gift to Hongsheng, and you also want to talk to your father-in-law, so that he can have a number in his heart." Although it is a trivial matter, it is still read to him, even if it is to listen to it as gossip. ”

"Yes!" Duchess An Guo bowed slightly and replied, "My daughter-in-law knows." ”

Everything was just like the idea of the second lady and the fourth lady, before the luncheon banquet, Mrs. Mu stared at Mu Hongsheng and wrote a fan, and sent a competent servant woman to send it to Master Gu's mansion.

"Is that okay?" Mu Hongsheng, who gave a return gift for the first time, looked at the servant woman who hurried out with a fan, and asked her grandmother with some uncertainty: "I don't think that fan looks good......"

"Nonsense." Mrs. Mu looked proud: "How old are you this year, and it is already considered a top picture when you write like this, and Mr. Wai Shu has praised it." ”

"No," Mu Hongsheng tilted her head and blinked: "Whether the words are good or not is another matter, at the moment I can only write to this extent, and no matter how good the words are, I can't write them." I just think that the plain white fan with a few lines of black characters is not good-looking at all, and the fan that my mother took is painted with flowers, which is good-looking. ”

"What's this?" Old Madam Mu still looked calm: "Those scholars attached the fan in Fengya's hand, isn't it also a few lines written on the face of the fan, don't worry, it's not bad, it's very elegant." Besides, it doesn't matter if it's good or not, it's just a meaning. As long as you do it yourself, Miss Gu Jiajiu will definitely be happy when she gets this return gift. ”

"Really?" Mu Hongsheng looked a little suspicious. But forget it, since grandmother said so, so be it. Although she thinks that the writing fan is really ugly. The fans of those who read outside...... Aren't they all folding fans?! It's not good-looking to fold up, and others can't see it anyway, this fan is going to be ugly, and it really can't be covered. Will the Gu family's sister really be happy to receive such an ugly return gift?

It turned out that Gu Yilan was very happy to receive the return gift, of course, she also felt that it was ugly to write a few lines of black letters on the face of the plain fan. Gu Yilan raised the black, white and white fan and looked at it, and carefully read the small poem of the former dynasty poet He Duanwu, and couldn't help laughing: "This kid ......"

"Miss, the eldest lady of the Anguo Mansion is too perfunctory, right?" Gu Yilan's personal maid Fang Zhi looked a little unhappy: "How delicate the sachet we sent!" Miss, you've been embroidering for a whole month, and what do you think she sent? ”

"I look good." Gu Yilan was in a good mood and fanned the wind with the fan: "It is a custom to give a fan during the Dragon Boat Festival, just like the sachet I gave her, it is a festival for the occasion." And what's wrong with this fan, the gold edging and plum branding handle are already the top exquisite fans, what else? ”

"Don't say anything about it," Fang Zhi puffed out her mouth and replied with disgust: "A few lines of black characters on this plain white fan, it's really ugly!" You can't go out with such a fan. Even if, as you said, the fan and the sachet are all gifts for the occasion, but how delicate the sachet you sent, Miss! Look at this fan again, just write a few lines casually, you can't be so perfunctory! I drew two strokes of flowers and plants, and it looked like a look. ”

"How can this be called perfunctory," Gu Yilan touched the plain silk fan in a good mood: "Miss Mu just turned twelve this year, and she is still young!" It is not easy to write this pen at this age, so it can be seen that I have worked hard. Miss Mu didn't expect that I would give her a gift for the season, I didn't prepare in advance, what did you ask the family to take out to return the gift temporarily? In such a short period of time, people did it themselves, carefully wrote the fan noodles and sent them over, how could it be perfunctory? Don't let me hear anything like that, there's nothing I can't do with this fan, and I'll take it to luncheon. ”

"It's a lot of effort to write a fan...... Fang Zhi was reprimanded by the young lady, and she didn't dare to slander the extremely ugly fan, but she was still unconvinced and muttered in a low voice: "I really have a heart, even if I find a handkerchief or sachet that I usually embroider and come back." Is this nothing......"

"That's it!" Gu Yilan's other personal girl, Fang Xin, pulled Fang Zhi, frowned and said, "Didn't you hear Miss's words?" Shut up! Miss has already said, that fan is very good, do you remember? ”

"Yes!" Fang Zhi nodded reluctantly: "What my sister taught me is that I remember it clearly." ”

Gu Yilan didn't speak, so she sat quietly and watched Fang Xin reprimand Fang Zhi. In the previous life, on the day she was locked up in the backyard of the palace, Fang Zhi stopped in front of her like crazy, and desperately rushed to beg Zheng Chongjing, and she never saw Fang Zhi again.

Later, she bribed the mother who delivered the meal with the only gold bracelet that she got the news of Fang Zhi. On the day she was imprisoned in the dilapidated backyard, Fang Zhi was beaten and sold on charges of disrespecting the housewife.

Gu Yilan still remembers that when she first learned the news, she actually laughed. Yes, laughed. She, the princess of Rongkang County, is still alive, and the county king's mansion already has another main mother.

And Fang Xin ...... Fang Xin, who was steady and silent, volunteered to accompany her into the dilapidated courtyard. In her previous life, Fang Xin was the person who accompanied her the longest, but in fact, she did not accompany her for a few months longer than Fang Zhi.

In the last life, she was seriously ill and miscarried in the third month of being locked in the courtyard, Fang Xin knocked on the courtyard door and shouted for a whole day and night in order to seek medical treatment for her, and no one paid attention to her, so she had to take the risk of climbing over the grounded courtyard wall, and never came back after that.

Gu Yilan still remembers that when Fang Xin made up her mind to climb over the courtyard wall, she told her to hold on, even if it was for the sake of the child, until she came back with the doctor.

But she couldn't hold on......

For a whole day and night, Fang Xin did not come back, the child could not be saved, so much blood stained half of the bed. The child is gone, and she doesn't want to hold on any longer......

I don't know if Fang Xin went back later. Gu Yilan raised her eyes and looked at Fang Xin, who was counting Fang Zhi with a serious face, her eyes were slightly moist. In fact, she knew that the rules of the Rongkang County Royal Mansion were strict, and Fang Xin dared to escape from the grounded courtyard, she should not be able to live......

But what if? What if Fang Xin really went back with the doctor? After all the hardships to invite a doctor, but seeing her hanging on the beam, how desperate should Fangxin be......
