Chapter 9: Chongxi
At dusk, Xu Gelao, who had been in a coma for almost a day, finally woke up.
Ning Shi got the news and went directly to the inner room, only to see that the imperial doctor was checking the pulse in front of the bed, and he couldn't help but immediately reddened his eyes again.
After waiting for a while, after the imperial doctor put away the pillow, Ning really came close to Xu Ge Lao.
"Old man......"
"What are you crying about, I'm not dead yet." Xu Ge Lao deliberately glanced at Ning with a straight face, paused, sighed as if he was a little tired, and then straightened up and took out a brocade box from the bedside and handed it to Ning.
Seeing this, Ning Shi hurriedly helped him, and when Xu Ge Lao lay down again, he took the brocade box and put it aside.
"This thing...... Cough...... You have to put it away. ”
Xu Ge Lao pointed to the brocade box and explained again, and then continued: "That is the gold medal given by the emperor, the emperor once said that if he encounters something difficult in the future, I can directly take this gold medal to him." ”
Saying that, Xu Ge Lao paused for a while, and only after his breath calmed down a little before he spoke again, and instructed: "Although it is useless now, it is a gift from the emperor, and you must take it away." ”
When the words fell, Xu Ge Lao slowed down for a long time.
"And that second girl Gu, go back and discuss with Mrs. Gu, then forget the marriage contract."
"Okay, what are you going to do!"
Listening to Xu Ge Lao as if to explain the future, Ning couldn't help but feel a little depressed: "Didn't the imperial doctor say, although your disease cannot be cured, as long as you are good at life, you will ...... in the future."
"I know my own body."
Elder Xu Ge shook his head, then slowed down again, and said, "Before...... You have a sentence that is very right, we can't delay people in vain, we can't ...... Tell people to be widowed as soon as they marry in......"
"Old man......"
"Go first, I'm a little tired." Elder Xu Ge shook his head and signaled that the Ning clan didn't need to say more.
Seeing this, Ning couldn't help but burst into tears, choked up and helped Xu Ge Lao to lie down again, and waited for him to really sleep, then he retreated softly.
The imperial doctor outside had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw that Ning finally came out, he couldn't help but hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Madam, I have reformulated the prescription, you can give the elder the medicine according to this prescription for the time being." ”
With that, the Imperial Doctor was about to say goodbye and leave.
It's just that before he really spoke, he was directly stopped by Ning's family.
"Really...... Can't help it? ”
The imperial doctor shook his head, paused, seemed a little unbearable, and couldn't help but add: "I'll do my best." ”
Ning Shi's face turned white instantly when he heard this, and he didn't even know when the imperial doctor and Gu Wushuang left.
"Madame......"
Cui Niang saw it in her eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Cui Niang is Ning's dowry maid, although she later carried her aunt, but she still followed Ning's to serve as before.
"I have a way to do this, but it's just ......"
Cui Niang was a little embarrassed, but when she saw Ning's appearance, she finally gritted her teeth and said, "Madame, have you ever thought about it, Chongxi?" ”
"Rush ...... Enjoy? Ning was stunned, and it took a long time to react to what Cui Niang said.
It's just that because of the reaction, my heart hurts more and more.
"Go, send someone to the Gu family and invite Miss Gu Er and Mrs. Gu here!"
After a moment of silence, Ning finally had an idea.
On the other side, Gu Fu.
Gu Wushuang was talking to the Zhou family about Xu Ge Lao's illness, but suddenly there was a message outside, saying that someone from the Pingjun Mansion was coming.
Then, without waiting for Gu Wushuang to respond, Zhou had already ordered someone to invite someone in directly.
"The villain has seen the second lady and the lady."
Someone dressed up as a little girl, and after entering the door, he took the lead in greeting Gu Wushuang with the Zhou family, and then handed the box he was holding to Gu Wushuang: "This is a gift from our prince to the second lady." ”
After that, the person who came took a half step to the side, and the peach blossoms that had just been picked at the back, together with the two jars of apricot blossom brewing, were also placed in front of Gu Wushuang, and then he spoke again, and said, "The prince asked the villain to bring a message to the second lady, saying that the dispute about your sister has been resolved. ”
"As before, hanging."
"However, I remembered that the eldest lady was pregnant, so the Queen Mother was in charge and gave Bai Aya instead."
Saying that, the person who came deliberately accentuated his tone and said: "In addition, the prince also asked the little one to tell you, the flowering period is coming, if you think this peach blossom is good, make a decision as soon as possible." ”
With that, the visitor retreated.
"Twin ......"
Zhou's face turned pale on the spot, and he didn't even notice Gu Wushuang's strange appearance at all.
Unlike the Zhou family, although Gu Wushuang also had a pale face, he paid more attention to the peach blossom that was in full bloom on the table.
Helian Yan deliberately chose to send the news at this time, and his inner intention was self-evident, but it was just ...... Do you really want to promise him?
"Miss, the Jingguo Mansion sent her mother-in-law to pass the word, saying that the Duchess Jingguo invited you to go over with the lady to discuss important matters."
Just when Gu Wushuang was a little undecided, the people from the Jingguo Mansion also arrived.
"Now? But why? Gu Wushuang said with heavy eyes.
"No, I just said that there is something important to discuss, please be sure to come over." The maid replied outside the door.
Gu Wushuang secretly hesitated, and he was even more worried that something had happened to Xu Ge Lao's side, so he directly ordered someone to prepare the car after a while.
"If I go over and take a look first, my mother won't go first, if there is really something, wait for me to come back, okay?" Gu Wushuang squatted in front of Zhou, raised his hand to hold Zhou's hands and asked softly.
At this time, the Zhou clan had completely lost his mind, and he was what Gu Wushuang said.
Gu Wushuang sighed secretly, stared at the peach blossom and measured it again, and then went directly to the Jingguo Mansion.
"What about your mother, why didn't she come with you?"
In the Jingguo Mansion, the Ning family saw that there was only Gu Wushuang alone, and they couldn't help frowning instantly.
"Something happened at home, so I didn't call her out." Gu Wushuang saw it in his eyes, and he was not ambiguous, and he explained directly and said directly to the Ning family: "The person who came to deliver the message said that my aunt called me here to discuss something, I don't know what it is?" ”
"If your mother is not ...... this"
"If my aunt is really serious, it will be the same with me." Gu Wushuang intercepted: "Even if I really can't be the master, it's the same if I go back and tell my mother." ”
Hearing this, the Ning clan felt intuitive, and couldn't help but nod his head, and said, "That's the case, I didn't have time to tell you yesterday because of the things in the house, and now Mao Xing...... I wonder what you're going to do? ”
"Originally, your uncle meant, otherwise this matter would be settled, in fact, I also agreed, but now your uncle is also ......"
Ning Shi choked up a little, and looked straight at Gu Wushuang as he spoke.
Gu Wushuang subconsciously frowned: "What does aunt mean ......"
"I want you to marry Mao Xing as soon as possible!" Ning's face was solemn, completely ignoring that Elder Xu Ge had already explained that he wanted to break the marriage contract with the Gu family.
