Chapter 123: Gao Cao's marriage
"Talking about me? What are you talking about me? Gao Weihu looked at Hao with a shallow smile.
"Hey, it's not that I'm worried about Xue Xue's illness, you also know that my aunt is such a child, if she really has three long and two short, how can my aunt be good." As he spoke, Hao began to cry again.
"Sister Xue Xue's illness is not incurable, but it must take time, I also went to see it just now, and urged the maids to feed her medicine on time and in accordance with the prescription of the imperial doctor, it must take a few days to get better." Gao Weihu said it in detail and very simply.
It is to tell them to eat according to the prescription of the imperial doctor, and to eat on time and in the right amount, if the food is not right, then it is unknown when the disease will be cured. And getting better does not mean healing, it also tells Hao not to have too many expectations.
Hao sat on the bed and let out a long sigh, as if he was paralyzed.
Gao Weihu looked at Hao Shi on the bed lightly, seeing that she had lost a lot of weight in a few days, and her face, which was originally still a little fleshy, was now highlighted by her cheekbones, and she seemed to have no energy.
"Auntie, you don't have to be too sad, you still have to think about the good side of everything, tomorrow is the big day for the master mother to enter the house, presumably my father doesn't want to see you like this, auntie." Gao Weihu reminded Hao to understand what is important in front of him.
You must know that in the past, the Gao family did not have a housewife, and all major events were arranged by Mrs. Gao, but after all, there are only a few major events a year, and they are all trivial and trivial things on weekdays, and all the accounts and expenses in the family are handed over to the Hao family.
Once this silver falls into someone's pocket, it is easy to enter, but it is difficult to get out, except for the daily expenses of the house on weekdays, there will always be some left unconsciously, and the small treasury of the Hao family has gradually become a lot richer.
Hao Shi seemed to think of something at once, and immediately cheered up from the low mood just now.
"Ping'er, give me a freshening and dressing up, I want to go to the front to help arrange tomorrow's happy event." Hao quickly got up and sat on the edge of the bronze mirror, and rows of rouge gouache spread out on the table.
Gao Weihu calmly looked at Hao's sudden change, and secretly sneered in his heart, he is really a person who knows the times, if he still has a stinky face for Gao Jingluo to see tomorrow, and then thinks of the crazy Gao Weixue in the backyard, then what an embarrassing position Hao will be in Gao Jingluo's heart.
But the more you jump today, the worse you'll fall tomorrow.
This night Gao Weixue's room was unusually quiet, no longer like the terrible ghost crying wolf howl a few days ago, this abnormal change, but made Hao feel uneasy, several times sent Ping'er to Gao Weixue's room to check, the guards at the door said that they were fine, Ping'er turned back, because she was not willing or afraid to step into that room at all.
Hao slept harder than usual this night, because she always had a vague bad premonition, as if everything was about to happen.
The next day, Gao Weihu got up early and painted a very thin layer of makeup with a good Dai pen and rouge gouache, although it was only a little powder, but the whole person was very fresh and elegant. Gao Weihu chose a gouache-colored gold-rimmed peony dress, the long skirt was covered with a thin layer of light yarn, and the whole person was like a fairy descending to earth, revealing that fairy spirit from head to toe.
The door of Gaofu was full of firecrackers, at least half a mile long, and everyone was full of smiles.
Liu Mingyue stood beside Mrs. Gao, just politely smiling at the guests who came to congratulate her. And Hao is the big conductor of the audience, putting on a posture of being the housewife, and it is true that these trivial things are arranged by Hao's on weekdays, so of course I don't let it go today, thinking that everything is arranged in an orderly manner.
The team of relatives was a mile long, and it was far away, and Gao Jingluo rode a white shiny horse and stopped at the door of Gaofu. Everyone was amazed and congratulated, and for a while, Gao Jingluo's old-fashioned face on weekdays suddenly bloomed and smiled from ear to ear.
Gao Weihu looked at the people who came to celebrate, basically the same as the people who enjoyed the chrysanthemum banquet in the palace the day before yesterday, but there were a few officials missing, and these officials who were not present happened to be all Lan Taishi's henchmen.
The palace only sent congratulatory gifts, and Beitang Jinyu did not come to participate in the marriage of the two Gao Cao, the reason was that the Queen Mother was ill, and Beitang Jinyu and the concubines had to stay by the Queen Mother's side and take care of them.
"Congratulations to Gao Sima, there are two happy events in a row in January, you are really a blessed person!" Master Lan smiled hypocritically and said in his words,
Prime Minister Liu Cheng and Ma Shi next to him suddenly tightened their hearts, they felt that Gao Jingluo's approach was to snub his daughter, how could there be a newlywed woman who had not yet arrived for a month, so he would marry another house, which was difficult to say in the past. But after all, this is the Gao family's business, and Prime Minister Liu always has 100,000 unhappiness in his heart, and he has to break his teeth and swallow it.
Cao Guogonglang walked over with a smile and patted Gao Jingluo's shoulder.
"Of course, everything has to be done in pairs, and by this time next year, the Gao family will fill in two more sons, wouldn't you envy others!"
Cao Guogong's words almost didn't make Lan Taishi angry, and his words were thrown on his face like a slap, very harsh and heart-burning.
Master Lan's face did not change, but he was already unhappy in his heart.
Cao Guogong's three sons looked at Lan Boyu who was drinking alone in the corner unconvinced, but Lan Boyu didn't take the three of them in his eyes at all, and while holding a wine glass, he cast his eyes in the direction of Gaowei Lake. It's as if he can't fit anyone else in his eyes anymore.
Many daughters are also attracted by this cold-looking son of the Lan family, and they will quietly peek at it from time to time.
And Gao Weihu saw everything in his eyes, but remained silent, like a master outside the world, waiting for everything that was about to happen.
Everyone looked pleasant as if nothing had happened, respecting each other like guests, and everyone was actually like a flood beast in their hearts, wanting to devour each other. Each side will never allow its position to be trampled on by the other.
Liu Mingyue looked at the Gaowei Lake on the side with a slightly gloomy face, but found that this girl's demeanor was like a portrait, even if so many people cast admiring eyes at her, she didn't move at all, as if she was enjoying it, or that these people's eyes should be like this, envy her, admire her, and fear her.
Gao Weihu moved his gaze to Liu Mingyue, and met her gaze, Gao Weihu suddenly smiled shallowly, that smile was so like, like honey, sweet and lovely, and the more beautiful things are, the more toxic they are often.
Since the last time Liu Mingyue helped Gao Mingyue, Gao Mingyue always felt that he owed Liu Mingyue a favor, even though Liu Mingyue was showing her favor in every way, but Gao Mingyue never put her and herself together, because she was not sure what direction Liu Mingyue would develop, maybe the person who saved you today will harm you tomorrow.
Gao Jingluo pulled a red and red ball in his hand, the other end of the ball was Cao Huaiyu outside the door, all etiquette was ready, Gao Jingluo gently pulled the end of the ball, Cao Huaiyu knew that he could step into the threshold of the Gao family, and at the moment when Cao Huaiyu stepped into the threshold, there was a roaring firecracker behind him, and the sound of the cannon sounded for half a pillar of incense.
Every time Cao Huaiyu took a step, the maid on one side sprinkled a handful of rice grains on the road, implying that the housemother had no worries about food and clothing when she entered the door, and the wind and rain were smooth. On the other side, the maid will be sprinkled with peony petals, which are the king of flowers and symbolize the status of the housemother in the family.
Cao Huaiyu dragged a long red skirt behind her, the edge of the skirt will be decorated with golden tassels, the whole skirt is dazzling, the head is covered with an octagonal auspicious red gauze cover, with gold thread to outline a Xi character, the eight corners are pendant with a string of plain silver beads, at the end of the beads is a red gem, the workmanship is exquisite.
The whole person's complexion today is also much better, step by step, the graceful figure, like a fairy falling from the sky, Chu Chu is moving.
Everyone looked at them with envy, and they all praised this beautiful woman for marrying a good home, and the Gao family's power was also one of the few largest families in the country.
And Cao Huaiyu has a bitter saying in her heart, Miss Boudoir will not escape this catastrophe after all, and she will be used as a chess piece by the family to marry others, even if there are a thousand unwilling in her heart, she has to force a smile and stay with a person she is basically unfamiliar with for life.
Cao Huaiyu sighed quietly, and his eyes suddenly collided with Liu Mingyue. Cao Guogong said that the sixth lady of the Gao family had just joined the Gao Mansion, and the novelty may not have passed, and she married in again, and the other party was bound to be hostile because of her competition for favor. Fortunately, he entered the door as a housewife, so for Cao Huaiyu, he didn't take Liu Mingyue in his eyes at all.
On the contrary, she is quite interested in the Gaowei Lake on the convenience, you must know that the last time this Gaowei Lake was in the limelight at the chrysanthemum banquet, but it suppressed everyone, and the skirt that she had always wanted to get but couldn't get has always been a hurdle that she can't get in her heart.
Cao Huaiyu looked at Gao Weihu's extremely beautiful face, and couldn't help but feel even more jealous, his hands were clenched tightly, his slender nails were embedded in the flesh, and a trace of blood faintly appeared. Cao Huaiyu felt that Gao Wei Lake was like a piece of gravel, stuck in her eyes, which made her extremely uncomfortable.
Gao Jingluo and Cao Huaiyu knelt down in front of Mrs. Gao, and the maid on the side brought the tea cup up, and the two respectfully gave the old lady tea.
