When she said this, she sighed again and said, "When I left, I saw that the old lady's spirit was still good, but I didn't expect it to be so fast. ”

After receiving the news that Mrs. Qin was gone, they took care of the local officials and rushed back overnight.

Rao was like this, and he traveled all the way for three or four days, and he didn't return to the house until last night.

Hearing this, Gu Jiu didn't say much, but said, "Is the second aunt living at home now?" ”

The second lady nodded and said, "Well, but I went to the mourning hall early this morning to worship, and I listened to my husband's meaning, and I will live in the old mansion for the next two days." ”

After the previous separation, the Mingyang Bofu belonged to Qin Zhao, and the second master had no objection to this, and the second lady also had no good impression of the mansion, so she moved out without any nostalgia.

Now that she has gone to live again, although the second lady knows that it is for the sake of keeping the spirit, she also feels a little uncomfortable in her heart.

Speaking of this, the second lady asked tentatively again: "When I passed today, I heard your father-in-law say that you had some unpleasantness?" ”

She came over early in the morning, and if she didn't know what the cause and effect was, Gu Jiu wouldn't believe it.

However, the second lady had no entanglement with her, Gu Jiu only guessed and knew her purpose, so she nodded and said the matter briefly, and said at the end: "The second aunt knows, although I don't have a big temper, I am not a muddy character." It's just enough to contribute money and effort, and my life is almost lost there, I can't repay my grievances with virtue anymore, you say this is the reason, right? ”

Although it was Qin Zheng who insisted on letting her come back, Gu Jiu refused to put this matter on Qin Zheng.

Not to mention anything else, she can't let Qin Zheng's reputation be ruined by half of it.

After hearing what Gu Jiu said, the second lady was a little surprised, and sighed after a while: "It turns out that this is the reason, I almost became a bad person." ”

She sighed and said, "I won't tell you, I came here today, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I want to come and see you." The second is that the uncle asked me, saying that you and your family are a little dirty, and he wants me to persuade you to take care of the overall situation. At first, I thought that it was probably because the children in the family were ignorant and offended you, and if I had known that this was the reason, I would not have come here. ”

When the second lady said this, she was also a little dissatisfied in her heart.

In the morning, the uncle attributed all the faults to Gu Jiu, only saying that the concubine at home was ignorant and offended her, and now that everyone has broken their legs, he also apologized, but Gu Jiu still refused to come back.

Seeing that the day of the funeral is approaching, Gu Jiu and his wife will not appear, will this not make outsiders laugh?

Her husband was also confused, and after knowing this, he asked her to come over and persuade Gu Jiu, what is the family.

But the second lady had doubts in her heart, and she always felt that Gu Jiu didn't seem to take care of the overall situation. Although her background is not high, she is not confused.

Who knows, after coming over, I heard something completely different.

She didn't think that Gu Jiu would lie, so only the Qin family would lie.

When the second lady said this, she sincerely apologized to Gu Jiu: "Ah Jiu, don't worry, you did the right thing in this matter, I will never persuade you again." ”

Hearing this, Gu Jiu pursed his lips and smiled, "Thank you for your understanding." ”

In fact, what the second lady said was not entirely true, she didn't necessarily care about Gu Jiu when she came over, and probably still had some heart to watch the excitement.

But that's not the case.

Therefore, Gu Jiu said a few words, and seeing that the second lady had no signs of leaving, he bypassed the topic and talked about something else: "How long will the second aunt stay when I return to Beijing this time?" ”

Hearing her words, the second lady sighed and said, "I won't tell you, I returned to Beijing too hurriedly this time, and even the documents were handed in halfway." Now the emperor still doesn't know if he will be angry, and I plan to wait until the old lady is out of the funeral, and then go back in two days at most. ”

Foreign officials are not allowed to leave without an edict, but the second master is an accident, after all, his biological mother died, and it is said that he can return to Beijing on vacation.

However, for the sake of safety, the second lady thought that she would go back as soon as possible after finishing her errands, so as not to make the emperor angry and not let others seize the handle. together

Her concerns, Gu Jiu understood a thing or two, because of the nodding and said: "Before the second aunt leaves, someone will inform me, now that the season is just right, Zhuangzi will send some snacks, and you will take them on the road at that time." ”

As soon as Gu Jiu's words came out, the second lady immediately smiled and thanked her.

As she spoke, she remembered something again, and sighed, "It's a pity that your sister didn't come with her this time, otherwise she would have been happy to see you." ”

Hearing this, Gu Jiu was a little surprised and asked, "Didn't she come over?" ”

The second lady nodded in response, feeling that this matter was a little disgraceful, thought about it, and finally lowered her voice and said: "Tell the outside world that she is sick and is not allowed to enter Beijing." But you are your own person, and the second aunt is not afraid to hide it from you, I didn't let her come. ”

Seeing her like this, Gu Jiu knew that there must be something inside to this matter, so he was not in a hurry, just waiting for the second lady to speak slowly.

The second lady pondered for a while, and then said softly: "You also know that the brocade is not young, and her marriage has been delayed because of the trouble in Beijing before. This time, I fell in love with a few families. ”

At that time, the reputation of the Qin family was almost stinky, and there were so many scandals, even if there was a good seedling like Qin Zheng, but he had a ruthless and vicious reputation outside, so he naturally didn't have much help with his younger siblings.

The second room is indeed separated, but even if it is separated, it is still a member of the Qin family, and the surname is Qin.

At this time, there was another incident with Qin Mingyue, which can be said to be worse.

The families in Beijing don't have to think about it, and those who are slightly better will not consider Qin Brocade.

It happened that the second master got the news to be released at that time, and the second lady was immediately moved, and after she went to work with her husband, she really found a few good children.

After discussing with the husband and wife, they both felt that the son of that family was good, so they planned to settle the matter.

Who knows that the front foot has set the day, and the back foot ...... Old Madam Qin died.

When the second lady said this, she felt a little embarrassed to speak, and said thoughtfully: "You know, according to the rules of our Xichu, if it is a family affair set when the elders are still alive, and the elders pass away, they only need to observe filial piety for one year; But if the elder passes away, then it will take three years of filial piety before he can discuss marriage. ”

So the second lady moved her mind, she discussed it with the family, and both parties planned to change the day, and only said that it was a family affair set before the death of Mrs. Qin.

After all...... Three years later, Qin Zhijin will be an old girl.

When the old lady was alive, she didn't give much benefit to the second room, so she couldn't have died, but she came to cause chaos in the family, right?

The second lady had a good plan in her heart, but it was disgraceful to say this after all, even if the object was facing Gu Jiu, she also had some scruples when she said it.

Fortunately, Gu Jiu didn't care, and after hearing what she said, he only said softly: "Marriage is a big deal, and the second aunt should have informed me earlier." Fortunately, before the Mid-Autumn Festival, I went to Nandao to collect a batch of good Dongzhu, so that people made necklaces and headdresses, and I asked people to send them over two days, and you can take them back for me to make a congratulatory gift for my sister. ”

Gu Jiu's words directly affirmed her plan.

The second lady was suddenly a little happy, and said with a smile: "How can that be done." ”

Anyway, in the Qin family now, the only people she is willing to maintain a relationship with are Qin Zheng and his wife.

When Gu Jiu said this now, she put her mind at ease, as long as Qin Zhijin was not looked down upon by their husband and wife in the future, as for the others, she was not afraid.

She thanked Gu Jiu again and again, and then heard Gu Jiu laugh softly: "What is a pair of jewelry, the blessing of the brocade sister is still to come." ”

Gu Jiu can actually understand the second lady, after all, it is his own child, because of the death of the old lady Qin, the marriage has been delayed, I am afraid that the second lady will not be happy for the rest of her life.

Besides, if the old lady Qin treats her children and grandchildren well, it will be fine, but the old lady's heart is too biased, and then it is so ugly, no one is happy.

Seeing that Gu Jiu was reasonable, the second lady was overjoyed, and after laughing for a while, she pointed out again: "In this family now, there are not many sensible things. Fortunately, you and Zheng'er are both good children, and our Qin family is also hopeful. ”
