Chapter 12: Zhou Zidai's news
"Hey, you tap it, it hurts!"
Gu Jinshu couldn't help glaring at Xiao Luo angrily, this person did it on purpose at all, and although Xiao Luo snorted coldly, the action of taking medicine was obviously softer, but her voice was still unforgiving: "She is just eccentric." β
"Come on, don't be jealous, let's think about your business! If this matter is known to your aunt, be careful about your tender bones. β
Listening to Gu Jinshu's words, Xiao Luo finally began to face it squarely, and his face showed a little melancholy: "Do you think he will renew it for me?" β
ββ¦β¦ I do not know. β
To say that the identity of Wuchen is also a bit legendary, but the world does not know it. He is the son of a famous singer in Qinzhou, and his biological father is also a famous gentry in this area, but it is a pity that he has never set foot in that rich land.
"There is such a difference between you and him, why is the love deep-rooted?"
Although Gu Jinshu was in her sixties in her last life, she has always been very passive in her emotions, whether it is Shen Qingci or that person, she has always been in a rather passive stage, so she doesn't understand her behavior.
"Jinshu, you are still young and don't understand what it feels like to fall in love with someone."
Xiao Luo's words revealed a bit of happiness, and the dazzling smile made Gu Jinshu's brows tremble imperceptibly, and he stopped talking several times, and finally put his eyes on his feet that were as white as jade.
The next morning, Wei took the two of them to return, and as soon as they reached the steps made of bluestone slabs, they were stopped by a voice.
"Mrs. Xiao, you also come here to offer incense?"
When the Wei family looked sideways, they saw a beautiful middle-aged woman with a pearl of light, smiling lightly, but there was a little pale in that smiling demeanor.
"Mrs. Zhou."
Wei saw that the person who came lowered his head slightly, and his voice was mixed with a lot of respect, which showed that the identity of the person who came was not simple.
"Who are these two little girls?"
"It's Little Women's daughter and niece."
When the beautiful woman's eyes swept over Gu Jinshu, she paused slightly, as if she had thought of something, and her voice softened a little: "But the child of the evening fisher?" β
"Yes."
Listening to Wei's answer, the smile on Mrs. Zhou's face became a lot more real, and she took a few steps closer to Gu Jinshu and took her hand: "You were still young when your mother had an accident, but do you remember who I am?" β
"Although Jin Shu is a concubine, she also remembers her wife's voice and appearance."
The person in front of her is the wife of Zhou Xia, the assassin of Qinzhou, and she is the leading figure among all the noblewomen in Qinzhou, so she will naturally not forget it.
It's just that she has always lived in seclusion, how can she be here now?
"But a well-behaved lord who followed your mother."
Mrs. Zhou's hand lightly covered her hand, and then she took off the hairpin and jade bracelet she was wearing, and wanted to give them to Gu Jinshu and Xiao Luo.
The two of them glanced at Wei, and when they saw her nodding, they took the words of thanks, and Mrs. Zhou was even more satisfied when she saw this, and chattered with a few people for a while.
After getting into the carriage, Wei instructed the two to put away their things, she was not a person who saw wealth, but understood the deep meaning. As a figure standing at the top of the noblewoman in Qinzhou, Mrs. Zhou naturally didn't need to please anyone, she took the initiative to send things and expressed her desire to get close to the Xiao family and the Gu family.
Of course, a large part of this is probably for Jinshu, her husband is just a scribe in Qinzhou, but Gu Mingsheng has recently been promoted step by step to get the reuse of the assassin history and is in charge of Qinzhou's military affairs.
"Auntie, does Mrs. Zhou know my mother?"
Wei's fugue thoughts were pulled back a little by her words, and her voice was gentle: "There have been some intersections, and if you can get close in the future, you will be close, and it will not be harmful to you." β
"Hmm."
"This golden jade hairpin is good for you to keep, I am afraid it will come in handy in the future."
Zhou Xia, the assassin of Qinzhou, is not only a son of the Zhou royal family, but also a feudal official, and his wife's belongings are also a symbol of status, and it is also a talisman in this world.
"Okay."
Although Gu Jinshu didn't think that a golden jade hairpin could help her, she naturally wouldn't argue with Wei's advice, and it could be regarded as a whole of her love and care, so that she was less worried.
"Mother, it is said that Mrs. Zhou usually does not go out of the second door, why did you see her in the White Horse Temple today?"
"Maybe it's because I'm upset!" Talking about this matter, Wei Shi also sighed slightly, looking at her daughter who looked eager to ask, she shook her head helplessly, and said with doting, "You don't know when you can change your good nature, in fact, it's not such a secret thing, you must be vigilant when you intersect with the county lord of Zidai in the future." β
After she said this, not only Xiao Luo, but even Gu Jinshu, who didn't care about everything, also looked surprised.
Looking at the appearance of the two of them returning to the nest, Wei scolded with a smile, and then said: "Although Mrs. Zhou usually lives in a simple place, she is not a person who believes in Buddhism, and the reason why she appeared here may be to set up a death card for her daughter." β
"Isn't Lord Zidai alive and well?"
Xiao Luo felt even more incredible, this deceased card is generally set up by the living for the deceased, and all he asks for is to make that person safe and happy in the next life.
"Lord Zidai is not her own daughter, she is just raised in front of her. Mrs. Zhou had a baby girl at the beginning, and if the child could be saved, she is afraid that she is about the same height as Jinhe. β
Gu Jinshu's face was stunned and slightly stunned, although she knew early on that Zhou Zidai was not Mrs. Zhou's daughter, she didn't expect that Mrs. Zhou had a miscarriage of a baby girl.
ββListening to my aunt's words just now, this matter also has a lot at stake with Zhou Zidai.
"Two days ago, there was gossip in the Thorn Shi Mansion, and it is said that the reason why the baby girl in Mrs. Zhou's womb did not have a lot to do with the county lord of Zidai, because she has been grounded for half a year in this matter."
"Proud that she is actually a concubine, it is a little inconsistent with her prickly temperament."
Xiao Luo always thought that Zhou Zidai was Mrs. Zhou's concubine, or that the nobles of the entire Qinzhou noble circle thought so, because the elders in their family generally did not mention this matter, lest their daughter behave inappropriately in front of Zhou Zidai.
The entire Qinzhou noble circle selectively forgot Zhou Zidai's origin, making her a model of Qinzhou's national daughter, but now that the past has been revealed, the elders in the family naturally don't have to care about Zhou Zidai's face.
The Wei clan is not the only case, when the news of the Assassin Mansion came out, there would definitely be no less voices in the entire Qinzhou City.
"The most frightening thing is her scheming, she can design the heirs in her mother's womb at a young age, so remember to be careful when you intersect with her in the future, don't be calculated."
Such a girl is not a person who is easy to settle in, and I am afraid that marriage will become a big problem in the future, and no one wants to marry a troublesome thing to go back.
"Now that the matter has been exposed, is there a place for her to step on in the Assassin's Mansion? Why did Mother say that? β
