Chapter 179: Gu Ruolan
In all fairness, the Gu family's appearance is excellent, Gu Ruolan was not bad, and it is no wonder that the grassroots general who was born in the previous life never gave up on him, even if he was on the road in the end, he never abandoned this wife.
In Gu Jinshu's limited cognition, she did live a very complete life. There are father-in-law who loves her, filial children, and the identity of the envy of others. Compared with the stable temperament in the previous life, she was a little timid at this time, and she looked a little easy to bully.
- Of course, this sister of the same race who looks about the same age as herself is naturally not as weak as she appears on the surface, otherwise how can she stage such a big drama?
"Sister Shu."
Although the sound is not as crisp as the first song of the oriole, it has a bit of a spring tinkling feeling, which is also extremely pleasant. And Gu Jinshu smiled and nodded, the so-called reaching out and not hitting the smiling person, she naturally couldn't ignore it.
Gu Jinxiu on the side glanced at the two of them, and said to Gu Jinshu with a smile: "Big sister, I'm afraid I don't know the identity of Sister Ruolan yet!" She will be studying with us in the future. ”
Although the Gu family moved to Jizhou, they did not let go of their children's teachings, Gu Mingsheng was a Confucian general, and he was also a person with both civil and military skills. Moreover, the reason why he entered the official career at the beginning was more because of the imperial examination, but he took the road of military politics when he later entered politics.
"Hmm."
Gu Jinshu glanced at Gu Jinxiu lightly, she didn't really want to deal with her sister, who was more angry than a needle, this person was even more annoying than Gu Ruolan. Although Gu Ruolan is only a little over eight years old, she is not a person who can't look at her, and she can see that she doesn't like her.
But she can't do that.
After Gu Jinshu left, he said beside Gu Ruolan: "Sister Ruolan, don't blame the big sister, she was pampered and grew up when she was a child, and she was also tall and tight, so she naturally didn't want to stay with us longer." ”
Gu Ruolan just smiled and said nothing, while Gu Jinxiu talked to her about the mansion on the side, as if she finally had a bosom friend, she actually babbled and talked about it for an hour, and then put the person back.
When Gu Ruolan arrived at the hut where she was temporarily staying, she saw a stiff old woman waiting for her at the door, and she hurriedly walked up to support the person: "Grandmother, why did you come out of the sick now?" ”
"Am I not worried about you?"
Although her granddaughter has been well-behaved and obedient since she was a child, she still can't rest assured in this strange place, and she doesn't know what kind of temperament the rest of the Gu family's children are, thinking of the old man who has passed away, she sighed slightly.
If he was still alive, he would not be able to stay here now, but who would let him go so early?
When the old and the young walked to the back room, the old woman approached her a little closer, and lightly clasped her rough fingers: "Have you seen the children of the Gu family?" ”
"See."
Gu Ruolan also had a clear understanding of the Gu family's affairs, and thought that the woman was the wife of the Gu family, but she didn't want to be a steproom, and from the words of the maids and maids, she could even judge that the steproom was not popular.
Of course, in the eyes of a family with a solid background like the Gu family, the identity of a fisherwoman is indeed not worthy of being a family member of the Gu family.
I heard that he was marrying a girl from the capital, and the woman ...... "When he left with his son, Gu Mingsheng had not yet married, and he didn't want to meet again, but he was already a person."
"That woman is the stepfamily, as for the daughter Gu Jinshu born to the original match, the granddaughter also saw it today."
The girl was no more than a few months older than herself, but compared to her fingers, which had been sharpened by life since childhood, her fingers were so tender that they could wring out water, and she was fair and lovely compared to her rough skin.
- I am afraid that her outfit at the bottom of the box is not as decent as the right-hand girl next to her, and it is no wonder that Gu Jinxiu has sarcastically mocked herself a few times. It's just that she is not a girl raised in a rich township after all, how can she be stabbed by her in a sentence or two?
"How is she?"
"She looks so good, my granddaughter has never seen anyone better than her."
She hadn't seen many people, but she knew her own face, and she would inevitably be accosted when she walked in the alleys of the market, and there were even sons of several big families who wanted to accept her as a good concubine, and she knew that she was extremely good-looking.
But the moment she saw Gu Jinshu today, she knew that she was just living in her own world, Gu Ying was pitying.
"You Nizi, you've only met a few people." The old woman smiled and pointed to her forehead, took the words with her, and instead admonished, "I heard your eldest uncle say that he wants to ask the female gentleman to enlighten you, and you must not miss this opportunity." ”
"My granddaughter understands."
She now understands why her grandmother must stay in the Gu family, because this not only solves the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also benefits her own life. Although it is said that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, how many women don't want to really read and write?
Even if you are in charge of household chores in the future, you need to be literate.
"Ruolan, grandmother is old, and the only thing you can rely on now is your uncle, not only can he read and write, but he can also find a good family for you in the future."
As long as she is backed by the Gu family, the big Buddha, her granddaughter naturally doesn't have to worry about marriage, but she is worried that she can't stand the feeling of grievance under the fence because she is angry.
"My granddaughter knows that she will not disappoint you, grandmother."
"To live in this mansion, you have to be less talkative, and especially not to talk to anyone."
Even if he is old, he is just a child, and he is afraid that he doesn't eat more rice on the road he walks? Naturally, she wanted to mention something.
After Gu Jinshu told the old lady what happened in the Gu family, the old lady of the Ye family said with a smile: "Your grandfather is a fool, otherwise how could the Gu family be in such a situation today?" It has long been a famous family in the land of Qinzhou. ”
The status of the Gu family in Qinzhou was not low before, and they even had to keep pace with the local wealthy Wang family, but her grandfather was a greedy and fun-loving person, and in addition to the original wife, he also accepted a lot of concubines in his life, and these concubines also gave birth to many children.
After the old man of the Gu family passed away, the biological mother of his son-in-law was also a ruthless character, and she would rather cut off her own arm to divide the family property than see these concubines again, so except for the concubines, the concubines were all sent away by her.
- As for those aunts, they were also sent away one by one, which was quite out of sight and out of mind.
It's just that she is also a long-lived person, and she died without waiting for her eldest son to marry her youngest daughter. After the son-in-law married his daughter, he married off his sisters, and his sister herself had met once, and she was a clever girl, but unfortunately she was not married.
"Is there any news from your aunt?"
