The old lady sent a box of black jade carved heads, and when she opened it, there was a faint majesty of the door, and the straight people did not dare to force it.

Diancui is the first time to see such an imposing head, she used to only know that the head face was only born for beauty and rich temperament, but she didn't expect that the head face given by her grandmother still has such a bearing, and she couldn't help but be in awe.

Guo Laozi is also not to be left behind, took out the treasure at the bottom of the box, gold silk inlaid with treasure inlaid beads winged phoenix sideburns to pick a pair of distractions, this is the reward of the nobles in the palace, Diancui can not be taken out to wear, but the exquisite workmanship under the wings of the phoenix is really wonderful, only the Diancui stunned.

Guo Lao said that this was a whole face, and he had a great merit to reward him back then. This workmanship was made by He Shanggong, a first-class master in the fashion industry bureau at that time. But He Shanggong died early, and there was no descendant, so her craftsmanship was lost, and there is no such exquisite craftsmanship in the world today.

It turned out that this half of the head still had such a history, and Diancui was even more careful to accept it, thinking that he would often take it out to ponder and study in the future, and it would be regarded as living up to the master's wishes.

After Diancui's birthday, he is considered an adult, although the women in the capital have always been generous and heroic, and they are not like those who cower and can't see men, but after all, they can no longer be as unscrupulous as children and can fool around with their brothers.

In addition, there are young descendants who come and go from time to time in the West Courtyard of Fuzhong, and they have to avoid suspicion at the moment. Diancui couldn't lift his feet anymore and broke into the courtyard of several brothers.

It's getting colder and colder.

The winter clothes became thicker and thicker, and the brazier in the house grew more and more vigorous, and they did not dare to stop day and night.

Wu's body became heavier and heavier, but he didn't forget to discipline Dian Cui. Wu began to detain the rules of learning ideas, although there will be no in-laws to serve in the future, but some rules must be understood, and this also happens to detain her from going to the West Courtyard to eat, drink and fight with her brother and a few sons.

Every day, I cooked food, and Du Xiaozhu and another servant sent it to Guozijian.

A few people in the Guozi Prison, when they ate the food sent by Du Xiaozhu every day, without the fourth sister, Diancui smiled and Yingying ran forward and after talking about the interesting things in the new painting book, and they felt more and more cold and tasteless.

This year's winter seems to be a little colder than usual. Before the wax moon arrived, a long ice cube was already hanging under the eaves.

On the first day of the lunar month, the current saint suffered a serious illness and was in a coma for three days and three nights, and the whole country was panicked.

If it is said that this saint is already old, but the two princes under his knees are not yet adults, the eldest prince who is already the crown prince is only fifteen this year, and the second prince is thirteen years old.

There are many old ministers in the country, although it has been three years since Enke, only this year it has been more successful, recruiting some young and talented people. But the saint was not satisfied, and he needed more and more capable ministers.

The prince of the country has been inactive for many years, and the imperial history of the Imperial Court has been neglected many times, and recently even Lord Lu of the Imperial Court has personally been impeached. The Holy Admiral removed him from his post, and before he could select and appoint a new priest for the sake of wine, he fell ill.

Guozijian was also anxious, there was no one in charge of the overall situation, not to mention those students, and even several doctoral teaching assistants began to be restless.

Fortunately, the seven people led by Li Sang have not changed much, just because they have received little support from Qu Sacrificial Wine in Su Ri, and they are coldly regarded by him. Now that he is gone, the seven of them are studying and doing chapters as usual, and there is no confusion at all.

Let's talk about returning home, this winter, but it is also a lot more deserted and quiet, the most noisy Gui Zhongqing and Gui Diancui, their brother and sister are not at home all day, and they don't know what to do outside in the cold, and one stays in the courtyard behind the Miaoshou Pavilion all day long.

It's just because Guo Lao is about to die.

Diancui simply moved over and lived in the West Wing, taking care of him every day, without pretending to others.

When Guo Lao is old, he can be regarded as someone who will provide for the elderly and send him to the end, he will be content, and he will go peacefully in the end.

On that morning when the water turned into ice, Diancui wrapped himself in a thick bear skin and pushed open the door of Guo Lao's room, but saw that it was empty.

Shocked and frightened, Diancui reprimanded the envoy beside Guo Lao for the first time.

"Miss, Guo Lao was about to die last night, but he explained that if he went, he couldn't go in our house, and he had to leave a clean yard for Miss." The maid cried and red-eyed, and muttered: "Guo Lao has always been the most clean and pompous, and when I left yesterday, I changed into the purple satin robe with him that I brought out of the palace, and the shoes were also the boots with a red upper, embroidered with gold silk chrysanthemum, and the shoes were also the boots with a red upper, embroidered with gold silk chrysanthemum, and ......."

"Master, what else did the old man say?" Dian Cui only felt that his cheeks were cold, and a large number of tears washed away Feixia's makeup.

Old man Guo is really exquisite, even if this courtyard is clear and quiet, there are only two of them and Diancui's master and apprentice, he also has to instruct Diancui to wear different clothes every day, corresponding to different makeup, and also said that Diancui is the most suitable to wear red clothes and green clothes, and then with Feixia makeup, others will be vulgar Diancui is not half a point of tackiness but adds coquettishness. He also instructed that day after day, he had to clean up decently, stop and stop, and not slack off for himself to show others.

"I said that I want you to be good, Miss, don't be so greedy anymore, I'm afraid that Yuan Gongzi won't like it and cry if you are fat." This is actually what Guo Lao says in front of the maid every day, and today when she saw the young lady talking so violently, the maid was scared, so she simply told her everything Guo Lao said.

Diancui wiped away her tears and said angrily: "I know all this, I mean what did the master say before leaving?" ”

The maid said with a smile: "Guo Lao said that no matter when and where you are, don't rely on others, remember that you still have the skills to make hairpins." There is also a table of good dishes and a pot of good wine every year during Qingming, and find a clean riverside sacrifice to go with him. ”

Diancui listened silently, raised his feet and ran out of the courtyard.

"Miss, where are you going?" Qiu Yue asked anxiously.

"Go and find the master back, and you will also go and look for it separately." Diancui shouted.

Outside, it was already snowing heavily, and the snow was getting denser and thicker.

In the vast snow, Diancui didn't feel cold, but he couldn't see the road ahead. Move forward only by memory.

The windier the wind became, the more the snow went, and the tears on Diancui's face brushed over and over again, as if he couldn't finish it.

"Who is this little girl of yours, it is really annoying to come here every day to steal food and disturb my old man's rest."

"It turned out to be a little fox cub, who knew the identity of the old man and deliberately came to trick me!"

"I'm a rootless person, and I see that there are only a few days left, so I have to find a successor to this idea, and it just so happens that your girl has met, so it's you."

"If you want to manage the business of Angelica Pavilion in the future, you must be able to make both hairpins and drawings. If you're as stupid as you are, if you still can't learn, you won't be allowed to eat dinner! ”

"It turned out to be this young lady who returned to the house, no matter who you are, you are my apprentice after all......"

"Whoever said that your lips are too thick and too charming and you don't have the bearing of a young lady, it's all fart! This daughter's family, whether in appearance or temperament, if there is no charm, what is the difference between it and a stinky man! ”

"You are already a young lady, your posture must be calm, your eyebrows must be as light and sparse as possible, you can't see the joy and sorrow in trouble, the rules and etiquette must be thorough, and you must be polite and thoughtful in dealing with people......"

"Soak milk! Soak every day! My old man doesn't believe that you can't make your thick chicken paws white and tender and peel off the shallots! ”

"What are you crying about, I'm not dead yet, it's not too late to cry when I'm dead."

"Cry, that kid surnamed Yuan is really a ruthless elm pimple, why can't he see it."

"It's a pity that I can't do it, I'm afraid I can't wait for you to marry that Yuan boy, hey!"

……

In the wind and snow, on the street, under a withered plane tree, a group of people gathered around, pointing and pointing.

Diancui seemed to feel something in his heart, and crawled over with a rolling belt, struggled to push away the crowd, and jumped up to hug the plane tree trunk in the middle that was already stiff.

Heartbreaking, howling and crying.

The cries were buried in the wind and snow, and everyone looked at the old eunuch who died on the streets in winter, and felt that he was miserable and pitiful. Now he saw that there were still people crying for him, and said that it seems that this old eunuch should have done good deeds and formed a good relationship before his death, and after his death, some people collected the corpse and some cried.

Diancui buried Guo Lao in a clean place near the river under Yushan, and Guo Lao was decent and clean during his lifetime. Walking is also a clean walk, I would rather go to the street than cause bad luck to my apprentice, and Diancui felt a pain in his heart.

Guo Lao has no descendants, and his temperament is strange and he refuses to get close to others, so he has to order Cui to be a closed disciple. Diancui proposed to keep filial piety for him for half a year, and the third master immediately agreed, and the Wu family had to agree, and the old lady sighed that she was a filial child who valued affection and righteousness, so she obeyed her. The old lady was originally from a military general family, and she was not afraid of those taboos.

Diancui is grateful to the elders in the family for being so aware of righteousness.

During the period of filial piety, Diancui didn't think about tea and dinner, and the people saw that they had lost weight, and the sister-in-law Lu Man persuaded her several times, but Diancui smiled and said that the master said that it was better to lose weight.

Others can't take her anymore.

This year's winter is particularly cold, and people are more afraid of the cold as soon as they lose weight.

When people came to see her, she was lying on the couch sickly. Where is there still the same lively appearance as before.

She was so anxious that Yuan Zhiheng was in a hurry, but because of the admonition of Gui Bonian and Wu's family, now they can't see each other much, and Yuan Zhiheng has to ask Du Xiaozhu and Xin'er to talk to her.

"Miss, Yuan Gongzi said that the snow is so thick, the rabbits and birds on Yushan can be caught." Xin'er said cautiously in Diancui's ear.

Diancui thought for a while and said, "It's cold outside, so I still don't want to go." ”

Xin'er passed the words to Du Xiaozhu again, and Du Xiaozhu went to pass them to Yuan Zhiheng.

Yuan Zhiheng stood for a long time, and without saying much, he turned around and left.

Du Xiaozhu sighed, I don't know when Miss's heart disease will be cured, Guo Lao is gone, everyone is uncomfortable, but it will not be much more uncomfortable than Miss. It's been half a month, and the young lady still doesn't think about tea and dinner like this, and she has to pretend to be okay in front of her for fear that she will worry. Fortunately, Yuan Gongzi often came back from the Guozi Prison to talk to the young lady despite the wind and snow.

Looking for a day of rest, Yuan Zhiheng and Yuan Fu carried a bird cage and went to Yushan, but when they came back, there were two small round pearl-necked turtledoves in the cage.

Du Xiaozhu looked at Yuan Gongzi and brought the turtledove, and said that the young lady should not play with the sons of the West Courtyard from time to time, but she did not say that she would not let Yuan Gongzi come to visit the young lady. He briskly invited Yuan Zhiheng in.

Diancui teased the two little turtledoves in the cage, with a slight hint of joy on her face. Because there were prosperous braziers in the four corners of the house, it was very warm, and the little turtledove stretched his body and was very happy.

"It was I who dragged the master down, and later I learned that his old man's original intention was to leave and return home to send his love to the landscape, but I dragged him to stay and refuse to worry about me when he returned home."

Guo Lao had enough of the dark days of fear in the palace, and was rescued by the Wu family and worked hard for the Angelica Pavilion for several years, until he got a hand disease and could not do work, so he had the idea of traveling all over the world to send love to the landscape. Who knew that by mistake, he became the master of Diancui.

At that time, Diancui was also out of selfish interests, and he made his heart. Thinking about it now, Diancui feels ashamed and uneasy.

"I don't blame you," Yuan Zhiheng said softly: "The love landscape has the freedom of the love landscape, and some people have their comfort before their filial piety." Guo Lao's body was not good at that time, and it may be difficult to travel around. ”

Floating alone in this world without worry, he has tasted it since he was a child. There is a well-behaved Diancui by his side, and he is also peaceful when he wants to come to Guo Lao.
