Chapter 7: Is This My Uncle?

In her previous life, only a few months after her death, Gu Nianlan also died.

At that time, Gu Jiu was still a touch of soul, and when he heard that she was still muttering to her little aunt before she died, he only felt that his chest was bulging, but the ghost didn't even have tears, only that grief was difficult to relieve.

And now, this little girl is nestled in her arms obediently, her fingers grasping the placket of her clothes, full of attachment.

Hearing Gu Jiu's words, Gu Nianlan said aggrievedly: "The nurse is behind." Grandmother said that you will come back today, but Lan'er has been waiting for a long time and can't wait for her little aunt, so she wants to come outside to have a look. Little aunt, don't you want me anymore......"

When my sister-in-law gave birth to Gu Nianlan, she died in childbirth, leaving behind a cat-like child.

The eldest brother takes care of the business all the year round, and although there are many mothers-in-law in the family, he is a newborn in the end, so his mother Liu took the child to her side to raise it.

Gu Jiu was only ten years old at the time, and she was still a little girl, and she had a little niece every day, witnessing her grow up little by little, and naturally it hurt people to the bones.

Even if the eldest brother continues to play three years later, Gu Nianlan is raised by her stepmother in the yard, but the person she relies on the most is still Gu Jiu.

Hearing Gu Nianlan's aggrieved voice at this time, Gu Jiu was both sad and moved, lowered his head and kissed her eyebrows, and said lovingly: "What kind of stupid words, how can my little aunt not want you?" Let's see your grandmother. ”

Gu Nianlan nodded in her arms, glanced at Qin Zheng next to her, and then quietly tugged Gu Jiu's sleeve, and asked softly, "Is this the little uncle?" ”

She heard from her grandmothers that it was because her aunt was married to her uncle that she didn't live at home.

Gu Jiu's footsteps paused slightly, and he responded vaguely: "Hmm." ”

Nodding, she changed her posture and hugged Gu Nianlan in her arms, let her wrap her arms around her neck, and walked forward quickly, while saying, "Your hands are cold, how long have you been waiting outside, let's go back to the house quickly." ”

However, when Gu Nianlan heard this, she struggled out of Gu Jiu's arms, took out a purse jade pendant with a very good condition, and raised it in front of Qin Zheng with great effort, and asked, "Little uncle, I will give you my favorite jade pendant, can you return my little aunt to me?" ”

The little girl spoke delicately and glutinously, Qin Zheng coughed for a while, but it was rare to lose her words.

He usually speaks little, but he talks more during the interrogation in Dali Temple, but he can treat the prisoner and the little girl...... And it's still a little girl carved in pink, so the attitude naturally can't be the same.

Seeing that Qin Zheng was deflated, Gu Jiu was inexplicably happy, raised his hand and took the jade pendant, pinched her face with a smile, and said, "It turns out that here in Lan'er, is the little aunt only worth a jade pendant?" Alright, put away your baby, let your grandmother see it, and scold you again. ”

The jade pendant is the temple has been opened, blessed with the safety of the little girl, the maids and women have to be careful to wear it, this girl is big-hearted, and she has to give it away?

But......

exchanged her with a life-saving jade pendant, no matter how you listen to it, you feel that you haven't raised this little girl in vain.

Gu Jiuxiao was happy, put on the jade for her, hugged her again, and said, "The child has no words, don't blame the prince." ”

The smile on her face was not closed, and the rising sun was behind her, adding a little golden light.

Qin Zheng was shaken by that smile for a while, but he cherished the words like gold: "It's okay." ”

Gu Jiu didn't care about his indifferent attitude, and only walked forward with Gu Nianlan in his arms.

The little girl probably knew that she had just made a joke, and now she nestled in her arms obediently, and her little face was a little red.

Gu Jiu looked interesting, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, touching her slightly high body temperature, and immediately frowned and quickened his pace.

After bypassing the cloister is the main courtyard, the Gu family is a merchant, there is no rule that those old ladies need to sleep separately, and the husband and wife live in the main courtyard.

Because Gu Jiu returned to the door today, his parents, brothers and sisters-in-law were there, and before he entered the door, he could hear the laughter of children inside.

The maid was waiting at the door, and when she saw her coming, she hurriedly lifted the curtain and waited for her to enter the door, but Gu Jiu didn't have time to greet her, so she just saluted first, and said, "Mother, where is the house doctor, Lan'er has a fever again." ”

Hearing this, Liu hurriedly walked a few steps over, touched Gu Nianlan's forehead, and it was really a little hot, and he hurriedly ordered someone to invite the house doctor.

The eldest sister-in-law, Lin Miao, also hurriedly stepped forward and tried to pick up the child from her arms, but the little girl avoided her and turned around to hug Gu Jiu.

Seeing this, Gu Jiu also took a half step back, and smiled quietly: "Thank you sister-in-law for your kindness, but I haven't seen her for a few days, but I miss her a little, let her stay with me for a while." ”

Hearing this, Lin Miao smiled and said, "That's fine, then there will be Aunt Lao." ”

Until now, all the people in the Gu family salute each other, although Qin Zheng is plain and indifferent, but as he said, he can't make mistakes in every move, and he has the appearance of a son of a family with unparalleled bearing.

The second elder of the Gu family is naturally satisfied, especially the Liu family, she knows her daughter's mind best, but because the reason for marrying in the past is dishonorable, she was particularly worried before. Now that I see my uncle's bearing, I feel a lot more relieved.

On the contrary, it was Gu Jiu who endured it and didn't cry. But the red circles under her eyes looked at the eyes of the three brothers of the Gu family, but it was a different meaning.

The three brothers of the Gu family, the eldest son Gu Heming, the second son Gu Hesong, and the third son Gu Hebai, are now all starting a family.

The second son, Gu Hesong, is the most straightforward, and after he was seated, he immediately asked with a smile: "My little Jiu'er has been pampered since childhood, and her temperament is a little rude and domineering. ”

The maids served the tea, and Qin Zheng took it in response and said, "No, the lady is very good." ”

He has always spoken little, but Gu Hesong glanced at his eldest brother and frowned slightly.

The next moment, I heard Gu Heming laugh warmly: "Ah Jiu is young, if there is something wrong with him, although the prince sent someone to tell us that the Gu family is not a fool, and he will definitely discipline his daughter well." ”

This is said very gently, but the implication is also very obvious, even if the daughter of the Gu family really did something wrong, it would be a lesson from the Gu family, and it would not be his turn to bully.

Qin Zheng only glanced at Gu Jiu next to him, and then understood where the anger of the three Gu family brothers came from, and only nodded and said, "Naturally." ”

After the news that he was going to marry Gu Jiu spread before, there were gossiping subordinates in Dali Temple who said that several brothers and sisters of the Gu family were like their lives, and they should let him be careful. When I saw it today, I only felt that the gossip was a little audible.

Although it is a merchant family, the family affection is intimate.

It's not like the Ming Mansion.

Gu Jiu didn't expect his brothers to say this, he was surprised and couldn't help but be moved, but let the tears dissipate a little, Gu Nianlan snuggled up to Gu Jiu's side, took a piece of peach blossom cake and handed it to her mouth, and said softly: "Auntie eats cake." ”

Gu Jiu took it with a smile, and brought tea to her mouth, and said with a smile: "My brothers are used to making fun of me, I don't follow it, father, you have to uphold justice, is your daughter rude?" ”

Gu Chengze, who was on the throne, looked at it coldly before, but now that he heard his daughter's words, he stroked his beard and said dotingly: "My Ah Jiu is naturally the best." ”

At this time, the government doctor came to see Gu Nianlan.

Seeing this, Gu Chengze simply got up and asked with a smile: "I just got a painting the day before yesterday, and I have always been proficient in this way, if I don't dislike it, how about identifying it with the old man?" ”

This is the main courtyard, in the end it is an inner house, it is not appropriate to stay for a long time, but it is just a pretext.

Qin Zheng naturally understood, got up in response, and said, "Don't dare to identify, father-in-law, please." ”

After receiving his words, everyone exchanged a few more words of greeting, and then left together.

After a few men left, the three sisters-in-law all found an excuse to leave, and the eldest sister-in-law Lin Miao glanced at Gu Nianlan quietly before leaving, and said with a smile: "Lan'er will trouble my sister-in-law to take care of it first, I will go to the kitchen to see the lunch meal, and I will pick her up later." ”

Gu Jiu responded, waited until she left, patted Gu Nianlan's hand comfortingly, and then looked at the house doctor and said, "Mr. Lao." ”

Gu Nianlan's body was weak, but she caught a cold at night, the house doctor prescribed medicine, Gu Jiu fed her and drank it, and she was coaxed to sleep by her grandmother.
