Chapter 2 Embroidery Girl

When she went out of the yamen, the sky was not yet clear, and Qing'er waited outside for a long time, and saw her come out and hurriedly greeted her with an umbrella.

Gu Rong got into the carriage unhurriedly and closed her eyes to recuperate.

The Gu family is not a big family, so it is better not to cause trouble or not to provoke, if there is no person today, Li Tengdong will also die. Li Tengdong must die, otherwise he will be entangled with his uncle and aunt because of her affairs in the future, and the Gu family will have endless troubles. Anyway, no matter how much trouble is made now, this bowl of murderous water can't be splashed on the Gu family, but in the future, it will inevitably cause some trouble, suffer from gossip, and make trouble for uncles and aunts.

The matter of Gu Rong's tryst quickly spread in the shops, and no one would care what the root of the matter was, and the idle people only grasped the word tryst, and it was on a girl who had not left the cabinet, which was not glorious. But Li Tengdong's matter gradually became unresolved. It's just that the uncle has to be wronged and will be imprisoned, after all, it is a felony to find the royal items in the Gu family's shop, if it is not for the big victory at the border pass, and the light of the queen mother's 80th birthday, the sentence will be heavier.

It's going to be fine, Gu Rong smiled, and was already resting in the carriage.

More than a month has passed in a blink of an eye, the queen mother's birthday is approaching, Dongyue and his family's carriage has also entered the gate of Yancheng, the day of entering the city, the road leading to the palace was cleared clean, and the onlookers are curious about what this barbarian princess looks like, and she can marry the prince in the imperial city.

But the people of Kyoto are most curious, or Xie Shizi of Nanyang Palace, the heroic and invincible Xie Shizi, this time he will enter Beijing if he gets the will, and every household comes to join in the fun, wanting to see Xie Shizi's face, it is even more lively in the whole Yancheng.

The Gu family didn't go, today Gu Ping was pardoned and released from prison, and Gu Rong and Aunt Gu were at the gate of the yamen early, waiting for Gu Ping to come out.

During this period of time, Gu Rong spent a lot of silver and two to clean up the prison, so that Gu Ping could suffer less guilt inside.

When she saw Gu Ping, Aunt Gu burst into tears, and she just said, "It's good to come out......

Gu Rong smiled, and stepped forward to sweep Gu Ping's body with the willow branches that had been prepared for a long time, "Go to get rid of mildew, good luck will come again and again." ”

The family happily got into the carriage and went home.

"Get out of the way!" Officers and men lined up in an orderly manner.

There was an earth-shattering sound in the street in front of the "......", and there were already officers and soldiers who had come out to clear the way, and there was still a long distance from the palace.

Some ordinary people couldn't suppress the excitement in their hearts, and shouted loudly, "The son of the world is mighty!" The prince is mighty! Marshal Xie is mighty! ”

The Xie family has guarded the border for ten years, with great achievements, has won the hearts of the people, is honest and loves the people, as soon as this sentence comes out, the people are harmonious, "The son of the world is mighty!" Marshal Xie is mighty! ……”

Gu Ping and the others were blocked by the crowd when they returned home, and it was difficult to move forward for a while, so they had to give way and wait on one side.

Gu Rong lifted the corner of the curtain and saw a high-spirited back on horseback. She could hear the earth-shattering cheers, and the people who hurried by, and couldn't help frowning in her heart.

Three days have passed, there is still half a month left before the queen mother's birthday, the palace is already full of lights, and the business of the Gu family's pawnshop has not been deserted because of Gu Ping's imprisonment, Gu Rong still embroiders female red every day, and the days are as usual.

When it was dark and the pawnshop door was about to eat, the door was knocked open by Sister-in-law Zhang, Aunt Gu looked surprised, but she still welcomed with a smile, "Sister Zhang, what's the matter with being so late, it's cold and come into the house to talk." ”

"Sister Gu, I didn't mean to, my master wanted to find your girl." Sister-in-law Zhang looked apologetic, but she couldn't disobey the master's order, so she could only knock on the door late today.

"Your master?" Gu Ping had already heard the sound, and he had heard it before, Sister-in-law Zhang was recommended to be the housekeeper mother of a large family in order to send her three children to a private school to learn knowledge, but what does this have to do with his Rong'er.

Sister-in-law Zhang looked embarrassed, but she had to tell the truth, "Don't hide it, my master is the girl from Xie Wangfu." ”

Gu Ping and his wife couldn't help but be surprised, Xie Wangfu!

"I bought a handkerchief from Miss Rong before, I was unintentionally seen by the county lord yesterday, she actually liked it very much, asked me where I bought this handkerchief, I replied indiscriminately, how did I know that the county lord actually wanted to see the embroidered girl, to see her embroidery on the spot, I didn't want to make trouble for Miss Rong at that time, so I said that the embroidery girl was afraid that she couldn't find it, and she was slapped for it, and she had no choice but to ask Miss Rong......"

Sister-in-law Zhang had kindness to his family in the early years, when the two first arrived in Yancheng, Sister-in-law Zhang kindly found a place for the two of them, and now she begged to come to the door, how could Gu Ping open his mouth if he refused.

Gu Rong heard the sound and had already come out of the room, "Mother Zhang, don't worry, I'll just go with you, the left and right are just embroidery." ”

Aunt Gu nodded, and also felt that the left and right were just embroidered handkerchiefs, and there would be no big problem, even if the Li family's hands were big, it would be impossible to reach the Xie family's head.

Sister-in-law Zhang was already very grateful, "Miss Rong, I, Zhang Lan, have sincerely thanked me here, but you have instructions in the future, I will definitely help." ”

Gu Rong smiled slightly, "Mother Zhang is polite, it's getting late, have you eaten?" Why don't you just stay and have dinner before leaving? ”

"Thank you Miss Rong for your kindness, I still have to hurry back to recover my life, so I won't bother."

Gu Rong sent her out, "It's getting late, Mother Zhang walks slowly." ”

Those who arrived in the imperial capital three days ago were not only one Xie Shizi and Princess Dongyue, but also the Xie family, who were ordered to enter Beijing to attend the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.

The night in Yancheng is already cold and windy, and in a blink of an eye, it is the end of late autumn, and winter has come.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Zhang Lan had come to wait to take her into the house, because she was not a valuable person, she naturally entered through the side door, and Gu Rong followed Zhang Lan with a purse needle and thread.

Zhang Lan is in her forties, but she is ingenious, and she can observe words and feelings, and she has been a housekeeper for a few days, and she is very important to the master's family, plus the guests who come and go in the palace in the past few days, she has seen a lot of characters. She also had to be surprised at the moment, Gu Ping really got a good niece.

Although Gu Rong is twenty years old and unmarried, but in the Yancheng pawnshop shop, she is also famous, she has a quiet temperament, treats people gently, although she is not stunning, but in ordinary people, she can also afford the word beauty, she is extremely filial to her uncle and aunt, Gu Ping and his wife have no children under their knees, and naturally love her in every way, the son of the Li family who died more than a month ago is also an extremely wealthy family in the Yancheng pawnshop shop, I never thought that the Gu family refused to bow their heads and agree, and what happened in the end, It's also everyone's gossip after dinner.

Just because of the calmness since entering the house, it is beyond the ability of ordinary people.

After walking half a cup of tea, I entered the inner courtyard, walked through the garden, and entered the new courtyard, only to see a woman dancing the sword from a distance, the appearance of practicing the sword is like a beginner, at most it is a flower shelf, I think it is Xie Junwan, the daughter of King Xie.

Speaking of this Xie Junwan, what people mention most after tea and dinner is not the first beauty, but her. The Xie family was born as a military general, whether it is Marshal Xie, Princess Xie, or Xie Shizi, they are all first-class skills, but the only concubine of this Xie Wangfu, but she doesn't know martial arts at all, which is also a big miracle.

Sister-in-law Zhang had already stepped forward to reply, "County Lord, Xiuniang has arrived." ”

When Xie Junwan heard this, she stopped, took the handkerchief that Yahuan had prepared and wiped it, and then entered the pavilion and looked at Gu Rong.

Gu Rong lowered her eyes slightly to listen to her question.

"I didn't expect the embroidery girl to be so young." Xie Junwan smiled, "What's your name?" ”

"The surname of the folk girl is Gu, in words." Gu Rongying bent over and saluted her.

Xie Junwan ordered, "Raise your head." ”

Gu Rong raised her head according to her words, and what caught her eye was a beautiful face, her eyes were like water, like mist, and her cheeks were red because of sword practice, but she was even more beautiful than Xie Junwan, who was more beautiful than Hua Jiao, and hibiscus out of the water.

She asked, "You embroidered this handkerchief?" ”

Yahuan stepped forward and handed over a handkerchief, she took it and saw that it was the sweatkerchief she had given to Sister-in-law Zhang, and nodded, "Yes." ”

"Every day in the future, at one o'clock in the morning and two in the afternoon, you come to the house to teach me a female red, and give you a hundred taels a month." Xie Junwan opened his mouth in an affirmative tone.

Gu Rong was stunned for a while, then raised her head and saw Xie Junwan staring at her, "What?" You don't want to? ”

Does she dare?

"The people obeyed."

"You wait, I'll go change my clothes and come back." Xie Junwan said, she had already passed her, she couldn't help but step aside, the woman's steps suddenly stopped, turned around and asked, "In words, what is your name?" ”

If the surprise just now was done by her on purpose, then now for Xie Junwan's question, Gu Rong was really surprised, the county lord was still waiting for her to reply, she lowered her head, and had to reply, "Single word Rong." ”

"Gu Rong." Xie Junwan smiled straight to the bottom of her eyes, "Good name, very worthy of you." ”

But why is this name a little familiar?

Xie Junwan was also a little surprised, so she shook her head and went back to the house to change her clothes.
