Chapter 755: Reminiscence
Laixi sent a post to Qi's house the next day, and came back and said to Mrs. Gu: "Old lady, the old lady of the Qi family is sick. I heard that he is very sick and may not have a few days left. ”
Mrs. Qi is almost eighty years old this year, and even if she goes, it will be a happy funeral. Moreover, Old Madam Gu also didn't like the snarky Old Madam Qi, so she didn't feel anything about dying.
Old Madam Gu asked, "Then did they say when my sister and Xiang Di will come back?" ”
Laixi shook his head and said, "I asked, but the other party didn't know." However, looking at Mrs. Qi's situation, Mrs. Qi will definitely come back soon. ”
Qi Xiangdi has an official position and can't move around at will, but Mrs. Qi and the Zong family will definitely rush back in a hurry when they get the news.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Gu couldn't help but feel a little sorry, two months ago, Mrs. Qi also said in the letter that Qi Xiangdi was likely to be promoted to one level after next year's assessment. If Mrs. Qi is gone, then he will have to worry about it, and because he is the eldest grandson, he will have to worry about it for three years. In addition, Qi Lao is also so old, he has to worry about Ding for three years if he wants to go. Thinking about it, she was worried about Xiang Di.
Lai Xi said: "Old lady, because the doctor said that the old lady does not have many days left, the Qi family is now preparing for the future. So, they don't entertain guests anymore now. ”
Old Madam Gu nodded and said, "Then you go and post to the Lei family." ”
An An woke up in the afternoon, and practiced calligraphy when she had nothing to do. Although she is not as hard as Qingshu, she still works her handwriting, and her handwriting is not bad.
After practicing for half an hour, Rudie came in and said, "Girl, there is a guest coming to the door, and the old lady will let you go to meet the guest." ”
Putting the brush on the pen holder, An An smiled and asked, "Who is it?" People from the Lei family? ”
Rudie shook her head and said, "No, I asked Mother Xiahua, it was Gu Heguang from the third room of the Gu family who brought his daughter-in-law to visit the old lady." ”
An An immediately understood: "Is it the eldest brother of the one who succeeded to the big house?" ”
There's nothing wrong with saying that, but Rudie feels weird when she hears it.
Even if An An doesn't have a good impression of the people in the Gu family's three rooms, he is a guest when he comes to the door. Even if the old lady asked her to see her, she couldn't shirk it.
After changing his clothes, An An passed.
When Gu Heguang saw An An, he couldn't help but be stunned. Without him, An An's appearance is four or five similar to Old Lady Gu.
When I was a child, An An and Mrs. Gu were simply printed in the same mold, and Mrs. Gu was so worried at that time! Fortunately, it grew up later, but it became more and more similar to Lin Chengyu. In addition, Qingshu has spent a lot of time to change many skin care prescriptions, and An An's skin is now much fairer than before. It's not as good as Qingshu, but she's also a beautiful woman.
Xuan was also shocked when he saw An An, and in addition, An An was dressed too well.
I saw An An wearing a dress made of unknown materials, the skirt was embroidered with various lotus flowers, and the skirt was covered with a layer of pink light yarn. From a distance, it looks like a lotus pond when the morning glow is full of sky. He wore a small flowing cloud bun, a peony hairpin with a silk and ruby, and two pearls the size of a glossy fingernail were decorated with gold thread under his ears.
Seeing that she had been staring at An An, Old Madam Gu frowned and asked, "Fu Qiang, her mother, is there anything wrong with An An's dress?" ”
Xuanshi came back to his senses, shook his head and said, "No, no, I just think An An is too good-looking, and I was stunned for a while." ”
"Auntie, what is this made of? Why is it so pretty? ”
The old lady thought about it for a while but didn't come up with it: "An An, what kind of material is your dress made of?" ”
An An said: "This is silk satin, but it is tribute satin, which cannot be bought in the market. My body was specially ordered by Sister Xiaoyu to be made for me, and it was my birthday gift this year. ”
After speaking, An An bowed to the two: "An An has seen the second uncle and the second aunt. ”
Although I don't like it, etiquette is indispensable.
Xuan's smiled and said, "I think you only had a big palm when you were born, and in a blink of an eye, you became a slim girl." ”
An An smiled reservedly. In fact, I was speechless, why did everyone who saw her say that.
Gu Heguang looked at An An and said with some sadness: "Auntie, An An and Uncle really look alike. ”
If the uncle hadn't suddenly fallen ill back then, their Gu family would not have fallen into what it is now.
The older people get, the more they miss the past, and Old Lady Gu is undoubtedly the person that Old Lady Gu misses the most: "Yes! The children of the Gu family are only like old men. ”
And this is also the reason why she loves An An very much, seeing her is sometimes like seeing an old man.
After sighing with emotion, Old Madam Gu asked, "How are you doing now?" Are you okay? ”
Xuan smiled and said, "It's good." We bought two shops, one selling incense, candles, paper money, and the other selling oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea and other groceries, and the money we made was not much, but it was enough for the family to chew. ”
"That's good, that's good." Old Madam Gu asked, "What about the children?" I remember that Zhenzhen is four years older than Qingshu, so she should be married, right? ”
Xuan's happily said: "I got married, I got married three years ago, and I gave birth to a big fat boy at the beginning of last year." Fu Qiang also married a daughter-in-law at the end of last year, his daughter-in-law is from Qianzhou, and the couple went to Qianzhou last month and have not come back yet. Otherwise, they must have come to see the eldest aunt. ”
Although Mrs. Gu was tired of Gu Laosan and his wife, she had no ill feelings towards Gu Heguang and his wife. Xuan, in particular, is a very smart person.
"Then you will be rich now, and when he also marries, you will complete the task."
Xuanshi said with a smile: "He is still young, and it will take several years for him to get married!" ”
After chatting for a while, Xuan asked, "Auntie, when are you going to meet Taifeng County?" Let Kazuko come back with you when the time comes! ”
Every time Mrs. Gu comes back, she has to go back to Taifeng County to sweep the grave of Mrs. Gu, and this time is definitely no exception.
Old Madam Gu shook her head and said, "It's not decided yet, it may be a few days, if you have something to do, you can go back first and don't have to wait for us." ”
Xuanshi said with some regret: "Then Heguang can't go back with his aunt." ”
These words also fooled Old Madam Gu, Gu Heguang has never been back all these years.
Gu Heguang said: "Auntie, do you have time tomorrow?" I want to invite you to my house for a meal. ”
Old Madam Gu shook her head and said, "There are a lot of things in the past few days, so let's do it later!" I will also visit your house when I have time in the future. ”
After the conversation was spoken, the husband and wife went back.
An An said: "The second uncle and the second aunt don't seem to be difficult people to get along with. ”
Mrs. Gu said: "Your cousins and aunts are good, but your second grandmother and third grandmother are ......."
At this point she shook her head and didn't continue.
An An didn't care if Gu family's was good or bad, anyway, she wouldn't return to Pingzhou in the future. No matter how bad the character of the Gu family is, it has nothing to do with her.
