Chapter 4: First Encounter
Yesterday was her wedding to Qin Zheng, Aunt Fang is a concubine, such a scene is protected by Mrs. Qin, and she can only stand. Aunt Fang was not happy, so she found an excuse to leave in advance, and naturally she didn't see Gu Jiu's appearance.
In her previous life, this Aunt Fang looked gentle and gentle, but later she didn't stumble on her.
Seeing that Gu Jiu didn't speak, Old Madam Qin glanced at her, and said softly: "This is your Aunt Fang, your mother is not in good health, and she has always been in charge of family affairs." ”
Hearing this, Gu Jiu smiled softly and said, "Aunt Fang is good." ”
It's just that he didn't move, although there was a smile on the corner of his lips, his expression was neither humble nor arrogant.
Aunt Fang covered her lips and smiled: "It's rare for the old lady to lift me, the concubine is just helping my sister take care of it, a coolie, but if the lady of the prince has anything to eat, just let the maids and mothers-in-law find me." ”
Old Madam Qin pointed at her with a smile and said, "You have a poor mouth." ”
Holding a concubine like this in front of the Duchess of the Kingdom, Mrs. Qin's attitude can be seen.
Gu Jiu slandered in his heart, and I don't know how much of this Duchess was angry.
She thought so in her heart, but she didn't plan to add fuel to the fire at all, after all, that was a serious mother-in-law.
Even if she is a daughter-in-law in this life, she doesn't plan to be for too long.
Therefore, when Old Madam Qin ordered her subordinates to bring tea again and asked Gu Jiu to serve tea to Aunt Fang, she simply pretended to be confused and smiled in surprise: "It turns out that the rules in the Guogong Mansion are like this, does my aunt also want to serve tea?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Aunt Fang's face suddenly became a little sneering, Old Madam Qin was dissatisfied with her words, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only say vaguely: "Your aunt is an elder, and she came late today, so you didn't give it to her." ”
Hearing this, Gu Jiu suddenly smiled and said, "It turned out that it wasn't a tea ceremony, but my aunt was thirsty." You maids, why are you so blind, my aunt is still stunned when she comes, and pours her tea. ”
As soon as these words came out, the smile on Aunt Fang's face could hardly be maintained. The old lady was also a little angry, looking at Gu Jiu's innocent face, it didn't seem like she did it on purpose.
Is this girl a fool who only remembers the rules, but doesn't even understand the world?
However, Gu Jiu was reasonable, and she couldn't say anything, so she simply said in a deep voice: "Pour tea for my aunt." ”
Aunt Fang secretly hated, she came late today to let this new lady see her status, but who knew that she would make a shame for herself in the end.
Fortunately, she was not the only one who had no face, and Old Madam Qin was not in a very happy mood, but after a while, she dispersed through fatigue, leaving only Aunt Fang: "Don't leave first, the accounts in the Zhuangzi have been delivered, you stay and check." ”
When they heard this, they bowed and took their leave.
When passing in front of Aunt Fang, Gu Jiu clearly saw the dissatisfaction and hatred in the other party's eyes.
But after a confrontation, she was hated.
Gu Jiu sneered in his heart, his steps paused slightly, and he turned around and walked out.
……
After leaving Rongchun Hall, Gu Jiu was called to her room by the Duchess of the Kingdom Lin Family.
In the Minglan Garden, like in the previous life, there was a smell of bitter medicine, which could not be covered by the fragrance of hibiscus.
The interior furnishings are different from the luxury of Rongchun Hall, but they are simple everywhere, and all the utensils are half-old.
"Don't be afraid, sit down. I don't have so many rules here, so I called you over today just to explain a few words to you. ”
After someone poured tea, Lin waved them out, and only the two of them were left in the room.
Lin took a gold-painted rosewood box, put it on the table, and said with a smile: "Good boy, these things were originally going to be sent over, but there were some mistakes in the middle. Fortunately, you are also married now, and today your mother will hand this over to you. ”
In that box is a complete set of heads, although it is not priceless, but it is also hard to find.
Gu Jiu waved his hand to refuse, and said with a smile: "Thank you, mother, but this is too precious for me to accept." Besides, I'm young, and I can't suppress such a rich head, so you should keep it. ”
She doesn't plan to be this daughter-in-law for a long time, so naturally she can't accept this set of faces.
Lin insisted on giving it to her, and when she refused, he added: "Originally, there were some words that should not have been said by me - the matter of the previous grandfather of the country, I know that thanks to the Gu family, I have this love in my heart." ”
Lin didn't say it, Gu Jiu almost forgot about the past.
Although the Gu family is an imperial merchant, in this dynasty that values agriculture and light business, the status of the Gu family in Shangjing is really not high.
And the reason why she Gu Jiu was able to marry into the Ming Kingdom Mansion as a merchant girl was because of two reasons.
One of them is that in the winter of last year, she accidentally fell into the lake, and Qin Zheng, who was passing by, pulled her by the hand, but she was hugged by her in public.
The second is that Qin Zhao, the Duke of the Ming Kingdom, was involved in a case of embezzlement of ink, and now he loves the house and Wu, for the sake of Qin Zheng's face, he only asked him to fill the deficit of greed for ink, and fined him for three years.
That deficit is not a small amount, about hundreds of thousands, which was made up by the Gu family.
The first thing made the gossip of Gu Jiu and Qin Zheng spread all over Shangjing, and a daughter's family lost their innocence, except for marrying him, she could only twist her hair and be a sister-in-law.
The Gu family loved their daughter, and knew that she would not marry if she was not a king, but it happened that the Ming Mansion was in trouble, so they simply helped, and the exchange condition was to let Qin Zheng marry Gu Jiu.
The Ming Mansion looks glamorous to the outside, but it is actually a big tree that has long been eaten by moths, the Gu family is millions of rich and rich daughters, the Qin family is moved, and it is almost coercive and tempting to let Qin Zheng marry Gu Jiu.
She knew that she was disgraceful to marry, but she took advantage of the difficulties in the Ming Mansion and the rich Gu family, so she got a loophole and got this opportunity to marry with a dowry of one million.
So she married and was low and small everywhere, but later she was tormented day by day, but she forgot that the Gu family married a millionaire daughter, but it was not for her to come over and be bullied!
Now that the Lin family mentioned it, Gu Jiu's expression was a little dazed for a while, and it took a while to push the face back, shake his head and say, "If my mother is for this, then I can't accept it." The Gu family did these things willingly. I...... Also willingly. ”
In her previous life, she was willing to pay for Qin Zheng.
And in this life, he is also willing to leave each other.
The Gu family and her never cared about money.
Hearing this, the Lin family sighed and said, "The Gu family is affectionate, and the Ming Mansion cannot be unjust." Mother knows that you are a good child, and she called you over today to tell you that you just need to live a good life with Zheng'er, and don't take other gossip to heart. ”
These words, the Lin family was a little difficult to say. Since the house was greedy for the family's money, it should be good for other people's daughters. But on the second day of marriage, it was really chilling to make such a fuss.
It's just that the Lin family is soft-spoken in the house, and can only pass on the forbearance trick of these years to his daughter-in-law, hoping that she can live a better life.
After all...... Although her son is a little colder, he is much better than his father.
Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment, and then understood what the Lin family meant, so he nodded and said, "Thank you mother for your kindness." ”
Speaking of which, her mother-in-law is also a hard-working person, and in her previous life in the Qin family, the few kindnesses came from the Lin family.
It's a pity that the Lin family died early, she married in only half a year, and the other party died, and then the Aunt Fang was in charge, and she was in the back house, and she didn't have a little stability.
However, in her previous life, she was stupid and self-indulgent, so she was tortured in every way and did not dare to fight back.
In this life, no one wants to bargain from themselves again!
Lin saw her lowering her eyes, but she misunderstood what she meant, thought about it, and said: "Don't be afraid, you will always marry in, and over time, people's hearts will always change people's hearts." Zheng'er is not bad-tempered, but he is emotionally introverted, and he is not good at expressing it to others, even if you get married, he will not treat you badly, and my mother only hopes that you two can live a good life. ”
Gu Jiu had heard these words once in his previous life, and he did the same. But in the end, there was no other reward except for taking his own life.
Gu Jiu smiled coldly in his heart, but he also knew that the Lin family had good intentions, so he only bent his lips: "Thank you mother for teaching." ”
She had no intention of talking to Lin about these things, so she sat for a while and then got up and retired.
It's just that before leaving, he glanced at Lin's suppressed cough, and couldn't help but add a sentence: "If it's cold today, you can also take care of your body." ”
