Chapter 110: The Substitute Life of a Concubine (40)
Approaching the end of the year, the entire Cheng'an Houfu is lively, but Haitang Garden is like being removed from the Cheng'an Houfu, and it can't feel the joy of the New Year at all.
"Miss, it's so lively outside, why doesn't Hou Ye allow us to go out, does Hou Ye really plan to lock us up until you get married before letting us out?"
Jade said very unhappily, since the last time she proposed to take Gu Wantang away, the entire Cheng'an Mansion seemed to know that they wanted to leave, and the guards of the entire mansion were much stricter.
"This is the New Year, and Wantang is going to get married after the New Year, are you going to lock people up like that?" Old Marquis Yun glanced at Yun Chengyang, who was sitting under him, and then asked lightly.
Yun Chengyang shook his head helplessly, "I didn't mean that, I also said that she could come out at any time, but she was always reluctant to come out, you also know that Qin Yunrou is sometimes a little confused, in order to avoid any accidents, so I sent someone to guard the Begonia Garden." ”
Hearing Yun Chengyang say this, Old Marquis Yun did not debunk Yun Chengyang's lies, after all, for Old Marquis Yun, Gu Wantang's granddaughter did not grow up by her side since she was a child, and there were even rumors of Tiansha Lone Star in front of her, so if you want to say that you like this granddaughter, you really can't like it.
Being able to ask is just a routine question for the sake of the New Year, as long as Gu Wantang is expected to marry into the God of War Mansion in the second year of junior high school, then the Yun family will definitely not be dragged down.
"It's a big New Year, why don't I go and ask the housekeeper to take her out for a meal together?"
"Go ahead, if she doesn't want to come out, then don't force her."
Gu Wantang listened to the excitement outside, and there was a trace of nostalgia in her eyes, in this world, every year during the Chinese New Year, although there are no fireworks, but you can also receive a new set of clothes, you can eat a delicious meal, and most importantly, you can stay together and have a good reunion.
When Jade and Peach walked back to Begonia Garden with a few baskets, she was a little out of breath, she glanced at Gu Wantang who was sitting in the pavilion looking at the sky, and then walked in front of Gu Wantang with a smile, "Miss, let's eat first!" ”
Maybe it was just remembering the previous life, at this time, Gu Wantang rarely asked with a sad smile, "What's delicious?" ”
"Made in the big kitchen, I added several dishes today, can you come and taste it?" Jade greeted Gu Wantang while putting the dishes in the basket away.
Hearing this, Gu Wantang glanced at the dishes that Jade took out, there were indeed several more dishes than usual, and it seemed that she had spent a lot of thought.
Gu Wantang took the chopsticks handed over by Jade, and then took a bite of the dish in front of her, "This crispy duck tastes pretty good." ”
"It's delicious, Miss will eat more."
When the housekeeper walked outside the Begonia Garden, Taohong was coming back with a small jar of wine, and after seeing the housekeeper, Taohong's eyes flickered slightly, and then walked to the front, "Steward Lin, why are you here?" ”
"Is this what Miss wants?"
Taohong's eyes condensed slightly when she heard this, and then shook her head, "How can Miss ask for wine, this is what Miss said about meeting the New Year, let the people of Begonia Garden drink it." ”
Steward Lin frowned when he heard this, there are three young ladies and two maidservants in this Begonia Garden, the third lady doesn't drink, these two maidservants drink? This is really too unruly, Steward Lin spread his hands, "Bring it." ”
Taohong was slightly stunned when she heard this, but she still handed the wine to Steward Lin's hand.
"Steward Lin, although I gave you this wine, but after all, this was ordered by the young lady, how can I go in and make a good deal!"
Steward Lin glanced at Taohong, then frowned and said, "After you went in, you said that you met me outside, and I took the wine away." ”
"If I speak so bluntly, will it cause trouble for Steward Lin?"
"I didn't drink this wine, I brought it back, and it was also for the Hou Ye and the old Hou Ye, so you don't have to be afraid, just tell the third lady, and the third miss will not blame you if she knows." Steward Lin hurriedly left with the wine jar.
Taohong looked at the back of Steward Lin leaving, the corners of her mouth hooked slightly, and then pushed the door of Begonia Garden open and walked in.
Jade watched Peach come back from outside, and looked at Peach with suspicious eyes, "Peach Red, where have you been?" I've set the dishes in place, and you're gone. ”
Hearing this, Peach Hong stepped forward and said with a smile, "I just had some stomach discomfort and went to the thatched house." ”
"Is it okay then?"
"Well, it's okay, it doesn't hurt at all."
"Come over then, Miss said you're not here, let me wait for you to eat together."
Peach paused slightly when she heard this, but quickly resumed her original pace and walked to Jade's side, "I'm a subordinate, Miss doesn't have to wait for me." ”
Gu Wantang glanced at Taohong deeply, then shook her head and said, "It's okay, it's okay to wait." ”
Taohong didn't see the deep meaning in Gu Wantang's eyes, looking at the delicious food on the table, she directly picked up a chicken leg in front of her with a smile in her eyes and snorted.
After the housekeeper came back with a small jar of wine, he went directly to the old marquis Yun and handed the wine jar to the old marquis Yun, "Old marquis, this is what the third lady's maid held when I just went to find the third miss." ”
After Old Marquis Yun tore off the seal on it, a smell of wine came to his nose, "This is wine?" ”
"Yes, old marquis."
Old Marquis Yun took a sip directly from the wine jar, and then looked at Yun Chengyang, "This wine tastes good." ”
Yun Chengyang's face turned a little dark, Gu Wantang learned to drink at a young age, if he really married into the God of War Mansion in the future, I don't know what the other party would say about them Cheng'an Houjia?
"Chengyang, there are still a few days before Wantang gets married, you should go to her and talk about this drinking matter, don't wait for marriage, and then take care of this matter, it will only be us Cheng'an Houfu who will lose face at that time."
Yun Chengyang nodded with a dark face.
"Since this girl is disobedient, then you don't need to call her out, you tell them that the family feast is the beginning."
Although Yun Chengyang wanted Gu Wantang to come too, looking at his father's slightly squinted eyes, Yun Chengyang knew that this matter was a little impossible.
"Madam, I saw the housekeeper coming back with the wine jar, do you think the old marquis will teach Yun Wantang a lesson directly?" Following Qin Yunrou was another eye-born mother, after the previous mother Luo was sent back to the Guogong Mansion, another mother in charge was sent to the Guogong Mansion, this mother was the one who had been by the side of the old woman of the Guogong Mansion for decades.
