Chapter 127: The Daily Life of the Housekeeper
There was silence in the room.
He Shi teased a few words, naturally unwilling to hand over the housekeeper's pair of card keys, she thought that Gu Jin would accept it when she saw it, but she didn't expect that Su Rili's cold and hard-acting girl smiled softly, and said softly: "There is Lao Liu's mother." ”
It doesn't matter if the He family doesn't move, she can send Mrs. Liu to get the pair of card keys.
Mrs. Liu's face was purple, on the one hand, she was the mother of the Gu family, and on the other hand, she was the lord of the Gu family, but she couldn't afford to offend either side, for a long time, she gritted her teeth fiercely, and walked out of the hall under the indignant gaze of the He family.
She was the person who served the He family closely, so she naturally knew where the He family put the key.
didn't wait for the tea, but saw Mrs. Liu coming back tremblingly with a wooden box.
The box in her hand was very delicate, and Mrs. Liu held it, but she didn't know who to hand it over, and when she was hesitating, she suddenly heard Gu Haomian smile and ordered: "Don't hand it over to the second lady yet." ”
Gu Jin sat still and didn't move, and he had Yunqian to pick it up.
He and Gu Xiang's eyes looked like they were about to dig a hole in Gu Jin, but the girl was still sitting unmoved.
She followed Gu Jiangyuan's words today and took over the housekeeper's work, but in fact, she had some thoughts: first, because of the He family, she firmly believed that she deserved it, and the He family should not have concealed Gu Jiangyuan's desire to marry Gu Jin, but she was almost charged with forming a party with the Kang family, if she was not taught some lessons, it would be against the justice of the world. The second is because of the Gu family, the He family has been in charge of the housework of the Gu Mansion for many years, this person is as greedy and vain as Gu Xiang, and the two concubines and subordinates of Gu Jiangyuan in the mansion are also chasing money and luxury, and the atmosphere is not good, and she is not happy.
But He's saying is right, she is a maid in the boudoir, no matter how the story of this life evolves, this housekeeper's key to the card will eventually return to He's hands, she just cares for a few days, look at this huge mansion, how much money is left.
Gu Jin pursed his lips, and said to He's family, which was quite polite: "Mother has been in charge of housework for many years, and now her children can share their worries, and it is also the honor of children, but unfortunately I am not very familiar with the affairs of the inner house." ”
After a pause at this point, he saw that He Shi was overjoyed, and he was already looking at the box that Yun Qian was holding in his hand.
Yun Qian was indifferent, and He Shi withdrew his hand stupidly, thinking that Gu Jin would say some polite words such as "please give my mother more advice".
But I don't want the girl's clear voice to be the same, "If you encounter problems in the future, you will definitely go to Songling Hall to ask your grandmother." ”
……
As soon as these words came out, the masters and slaves in the house had different expressions, and the little girl Yun Qian couldn't hold back her smile.
He's face was particularly exciting, and he finally knew that Gu Jin was deliberately choking her with words, and would rather go to Songling Hall to find the old lady to show her, rather than ask her about the housekeeper, this is not to take her seriously!
He couldn't help but want to ridicule Gu Jin, but Mrs. Liu behind her secretly stopped her, so she didn't repeat yesterday's farce today.
Gu Jiangyuan saw that the negotiation between the two parties was already proper, so he coughed lightly.
"Now that it's all over, let's stop here." After saying this, Gu Jiangyuan was about to get up, and everyone hurriedly got up to see each other, but when they saw Gu Jiangyuan standing up, he turned his head and fell on Gu Jin on the table.
The morning sun is just right, and the girl is bathed in the clear light, shining brightly.
Gu Jiangyuan turned his head and walked again, but this time he left a sentence: "Come with me to the study." ”
Gu Jinying and followed with Yun Xuan, leaving He and Gu Xiang in the room looking at each other, as well as Gu Haomian who was nostalgic for the shortbread on the table.
A farce is barely over at this point.
Gu Jiangyuan's study is an important place in the house, and no one is allowed to enter and leave at will on weekdays, but Gu Jin has been there many times, but he used to go secretly, and today he followed his father in such an open-minded manner, but it was the first time.
Gu Jin had a hand stove in his hand, and Yun Qian was holding the wooden box containing the housekeeper's card key, and the master and servant were not empty.
There are small servants guarding the study, and they don't need to open the curtains themselves.
Inside the house, there was already a slow charcoal fire, and it was recklessly spitting out spring in this cold winter, Gu Jin came into the house, and couldn't help but glance at the charcoal stove, the charcoal fire was not new, but had been burning for some time.
Gu Jin's heart moved slightly, which showed that Gu Jiangyuan did not come to the study temporarily, and he called her over, not because Gu Jin teased the He family at the table.
The room was warm, Yun Qian put the wooden box in his hand on the table, and then reached out to relieve Gu Jin's big hat, under which the girl was dressed in a plain skirt, and the autumn frost was graceful.
It wasn't until Yun Qian withdrew that Gu Jiangyuan ordered the chair in the study and instructed Gu Jin: "Sit." ”
Gu Jin was about to sit down according to his words, but when he saw that Gu Jiangyuan had already reached out and took the ink block to grind, the girl rolled up her sleeves and personally served him.
Gu Jiangyuan handed over the ink block in his hand to Gu Jin, and then went to the pen shelf to look for a brush, seeing that this posture was to write.
In winter, the ink block is hard, Gu Jin added water several times to grind the thick ink evenly, a small cup of ink spilled into the inkstone, and the ink became a flower by itself.
Coincidentally, at this time, Gu Jiangyuan found a brush that seemed to be quite liked, the girl turned sideways, and Gu Jiangyuan dipped in ink.
He smiled and asked seemingly casually, "How many times have you slipped into this study?" ”
Gu Jin was stunned for a moment, and his eyes fell on the bookshelf beside him.
A good bookshelf is about to be emptied by her, and it is no wonder that Gu Jiangyuan suddenly asked.
The girl smiled: "If you have time, you will come in and take a few orphan books from my father." ”
Gu Jiangyuan didn't blame, but rejoiced in her calmness, he kept moving in his hand, and left a word on the rice paper - Qi.
Gu Jiangyuan raised his eyes to look at Gu Jin, but he became curious: "Don't you ask how your father knows that it was you who emptied my study?" ”
Gu Jin turned his head and began to organize his language seriously.
"If you guess, you shouldn't guess the mother and Gu Xiang, then only the daughter is left; If you talk about the hammer, it must be due to the elder brother. ”
Last night, she had a game with Gu Haomian, and not only mentioned the chess games in the study, but Gu Jin also revealed some facts about how she often went in and out of Gu Jiangyuan's study.
The two of them talked a lot last night, presumably Gu Hao didn't sleep well all night, today he went to the court with Gu Jiangyuan, and he had a lot of free time, so he should have said it to Gu Jiangyuan.
Who knew that Gu Jiangyuan listened to Gu Jin's words but smiled deeply, and vaguely had some Gu Haomian laughing at the end.
"Your brother praised you all morning."
Gu Jin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, guessing that Gu Haomian would mention himself like his father on the way to the court and on the way home, but he praised this matter all morning...... Isn't that an exaggeration?
