Chapter 506
"Dad, you're a strong man." When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Maybe he's busy at this time." ”
"Don't say nice things for him!" When Jin Yehou heard this, he snorted angrily: "Doing such a thing and making such a rumor, shouldn't King Jing explain it to me, the prospective father-in-law?" If he doesn't come, then there is no need to talk about this marriage any further! He died of this heart before it was too late! ”
"Daddy! Don't think so! When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he was very helpless, and immediately persuaded: "You promised to give him half a year to solve these things, but now that the time has not yet come, how can you unilaterally break the contract?" I believe that this incident must have happened for a reason, Dad, you believe your daughter this time! ”
Hearing this, Jinye Hou raised his head and glanced at Gu Ruoxi, but in his heart, he remembered the scene of his conversation with Xuanyuan Jingxi in the small village under the cliff that day, and the scene of that day was vivid, but who would have thought that such a thing would happen in the short time that had passed?
"Well, give him another chance! Wait for half a year! Jin Ye Hou sat there and thought carefully for a long time, and finally frowned and said this.
Gu Ruoxi listened, and a trace of joy suddenly appeared on her face: "Daughter, thank you, Daddy!" ”
Jin Yehou turned his head and glanced at her, and said in surprise: "This is his business, what are you thanking me for?" ”
Gu Ruoxi smiled mischievously and said: "My daughter is going to marry him in the future, husband and wife are one, so naturally I can say this thank you!" ”
"You! Don't be ashamed! didn't get married, and even said that husband and wife were one! When Jin Yehou heard this, he was happy, and he made fun of Gu Ruoxi, and the depression and anger that had accumulated in his heart had already disappeared unconsciously.
Gu Ruoxi saw that he had untied the knot in his heart, and immediately invited: "Dad, look at you, just talk about this, the food is going to be cold!" Hurry up and eat! ”
Jin Ye Hou nodded, picked up the chopsticks, and enjoyed dinner with his daughter.
"By the way, Xi'er, Jinhuan has been dealt with, your stand-in for Ye Pai is good, he has lived in my study for the past few days and nights, and he is also a person who knows the etiquette, Aunt Su's side is also peaceful, and Dad sometimes goes there to sit and sit, you are not young now, Dad has something in his hand and wants to give it to you, what do you think?"
"What's the matter?" Gu Ruoxi served a bowl of soup for Jinye Hou, and then asked.
"Feed." Jin Ye Hou glanced at Gu Ruoxi and said, "The middle feed of the Hou Mansion, what do you think?" ”
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she was very surprised: "Dad, isn't Aunt Xu doing a good job?" During this time, the people in the palace praised her a lot, saying that she was fair and had never detained anyone......"
"After all, this is the Hou Mansion, and letting an aunt who can't be on the stage take charge of the middle feed is not a long-term solution." Jin Yehou shook his head and interrupted Gu Ruoxi: "Your mother temporary."
When you live in Qingyun Nunnery, your eldest brother is not at home these days, and there is only one person left in this mansion who has a noble status and can take charge of the middle feed. Moreover, Dad can't keep you for a few years, you learn it now, and when you get married later, you won't be black-eyed! Jin Yehou's words were the first to say, and it was all for Gu Ruoxi's good, which made her not know how to answer for a while.
If she doesn't agree, her father will be sad, but if she does, she won't be as free as before. Aunt Xu has been in charge of Zhongfeng for so long, I am afraid that she has already regarded it as a thing in her bag, if she responds rashly, I am afraid that she will be regarded as a thorn in the eye!
Gu Ruoxi didn't want to just defeat Mrs. Jinye Hou, and then face Aunt Xu!
After thinking for a long time, she tentatively said to Jinye Hou: "Dad, you also said that my daughter is a black eye for the middle feed in the house, and now it is the learning stage, how can she take charge of it herself?" It's better to be like this, the head of the family is still Aunt Xu, and her daughter follows her every day to learn some skills in handling housework, how about it? ”
"Xi'er. Do you really think so? "Jin Ye Hou didn't expect Gu Ruoxi to say such a thing. I couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Gu Ruoxi nodded and said, "Yes!" ”
Kageba Hou looked at her fixedly, sighed and said, "Okay, just do as you say!" ”
"Thank you, Dad!" Gu Ruoxi smiled with a smile.
Jin Yehou glanced at her arm and asked, "Xi'er, how are the injuries on your body now?" ”
"It's scabbed, but it's going to be a few months before it's fully recovered." Gu Ruoxi said comforting to Jinye Houye: "But my daughter is not afraid, this injury is not in the way, my daughter can read and write or something, it is very convenient." ”
Jin Ye Hou nodded, he couldn't persuade his daughter not to read the handwriting, but said: "You read less books and write less, you know?" ”
Gu Ruoxi nodded very obediently.
Only then did Jin Yehou nod and said something more. And he went back.
Gu Ruoxi sent her father away, and just returned to the house to be quiet, Amber and Liuli rushed in: "Miss! ”
"What's wrong?" Gu Ruoxi raised her eyes and asked.
Amber eyebrows fluttered and said, "Miss, the slave didn't expect that your trust in the prince would be so firm!" No wonder the prince ......"
"Okay, let's talk about it, what the hell is going on!" Gu Ruoxi interrupted Amber's chatter, and when Kazuba was waiting for her, her face had been full of smiles, but at this moment, only coldness remained on her face.
It turned out that she didn't care, she just protected the prince in front of the Hou Ye! What needs to be clarified is still to be asked......
Amber wailed inwardly. There was no longer the smugness on his face. She glanced at Gu Ruoxi, who had been in a good time, and replied in a low voice: "Miss, the slave maid has a sentence, I don't know whether to say it or not......"
"Say it quickly! Don't ramble
I vomited! It's not like you at all! Gu Ruoxi turned her head and gave Amber a blank look. said: "Could it be that the prince is really like the rumors outside, he has a habit of breaking his sleeves?" ”
"No, no, no!" Amber was anxious, and hurriedly explained: "Then everything is for the prince to show the queen mother!" ”
"Drama? Why is he acting? When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he couldn't help but be very surprised.
Amber sighed and hurriedly replied, "Miss, have you forgotten?" The prince promised the Hou Ye that he would get the queen mother in half a year! He promised the Hou Ye that he must ask the Queen Mother to agree to your marriage......"
"And then?" Gu Ruoxi's tone was very light.
Amber saw it, and her heart fought, she really didn't know whether Gu Ruoxi was happy or unhappy, so she could only say tentatively: "Then." The prince thought about it and felt that the only way to stop the queen mother from stuffing people around him was to stop the queen mother from stuffing people around him, miss, you think, after the prince's habit of breaking sleeves spread, which other daughter in the capital is willing to marry the prince? At that time, the Queen Mother had no choice, so she had to agree to this family business......"
"It's a good idea, but has he thought about it?" Gu Ruoxi snorted coldly and said: "The Queen Mother is an extremely face-saving person, how can she allow her son to have a reputation for breaking sleeves?" Even if everyone in the world knows it, she will be invisible! And in order to stop the gossip, she will keep stuffing people around the prince to prove everyone wrong! Didn't he think about this? ”
Gu Ruoxi's continuous questioning was extremely simple, and he was directly stunned by Amber's question. She stood there, mouth open, unable to utter a word for a long time.
Gu Ruoxi said angrily, "Go and talk to him, see if there is any way to make up for it!" What are you doing here? ”
Amber heard this, but she stood still, she glanced at Gu Ruoxi, and suddenly said: "Miss, what you just said, the slave can't remember, it's better like this, this time, you go to see the prince in person and tell him this matter clearly, okay?" ”
When Gu Ruoxi heard this, she rolled her eyes fiercely, she glanced at Amber, frowned, and said, "I usually look like you're quite smart, but why is your brain so bad today?" You don't want to think about what the situation is now, your prince will do everything to make the Queen Mother misunderstand that he likes men, if I meet him, I will definitely be seen by the Queen Mother! Won't all the work done come to naught? Maybe the Queen Mother will be angry and immediately assign a princess to your prince! ”
"Even if you want to be assigned, then you must be assigned, Miss!" When Amber heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Besides, how can the young lady be sure that you can't see the prince at this time?" ”
"What do you mean by that?" Gu Ruoxi listened and asked with some doubts.
Amber smiled mysteriously, approached Gu Ruoxi, and asked in a low voice, "Miss, you just need to tell the slave maid whether you want to see the king or not."
Daddy? ”
Want to see it? Of course she wanted to!
It's been so long since she came back, and she only saw Xuanyuan Jingxi on the day she returned, and the two of them rarely saw each other since then. To say that Gu Ruoxi has no thoughts in his heart, it is completely deceiving. At this time, Amber's words happened to be asked on her heart.
"I want to see you." After a long time, Gu Ruoxi nodded.
"Good! I'll leave this matter to the slave and maid to prepare! Amber snapped her fingers and said happily, "However, is Miss going to see it today or tomorrow?" ”
"It's late today, we'll talk about it tomorrow." When Gu Ruoxi heard this, he immediately shook his head.
"Don't! Miss! Amber hurriedly said, "Didn't Master Hou say it?" If you want to hand over the feed to Miss, you yourself said that you want to study with Aunt Xu, I'm afraid you will have to report to the front hall tomorrow, where do you still have time to go to see the prince! ”
When she said so much, she was actually afraid that Gu Ruoxi would change her mind. Go again tomorrow, who knows what will happen tomorrow!
But Gu Ruoxi didn't understand Amber's good intentions at all, and when she heard this, she still shook her head and said, "Even if I go to learn from Aunt Xu to take charge of the middle feed, it will be a matter of the morning, and I am free in the afternoon, and I will not delay to see him, so you don't say it again." ”
"Okay." Amber heard this, looked at Gu Ruoxi's determined expression again, and finally shook her head and agreed.
At this moment, Gu Ruoxi suddenly asked again: "In the past few days, have you forced anything out of Jinhuan's mouth?" ”
Amber shook her head and sighed, "She's just a minion, how can she know the top secrets?" Being able to name the eunuch is already her limit. ”
"Then in this Hou Mansion, is there anyone who accepts her?" Gu Ruoxi glanced at Amber and said, "I don't believe that the person behind the curtain only inserted a brocade ring in the middle of the Hou Mansion!" ”
"Of course, I've asked about this." Amber sighed, "But no matter what kind of torture she was inflicted, she shook her head violently, and her expression was still a little broken, and it seemed that there was nothing to interrogate......"
"Since that's the case, then there's no need to keep her life anymore." Gu Ruoxi said expressionlessly.
Amber originally wanted to say something, but when she heard Gu Ruoxi's words, she was taken aback, and even forgot what she wanted to say.
"Do you think I'm too cruel to Jinhuan?" Gu Ruoxi's voice came slowly: "But for this kind of spy who is inserted in my own house, I only have hatred and disgust!" If we hadn't discovered her earlier, I'm afraid it would have been the people in the Hou Mansion who would have died! Because of her, and the blood is flowing like a river! ”
Amber had never seen Gu Ruoxi look like this, and she couldn't help but be taken aback when she heard this.
It took a long time for her to nod and say, "Okay!" I'll dispose of the brocade ring, and make sure that the people who died don't know it, and the ghost doesn't know it. ”
"Be careful
, don't show a trace. Gu Ruoxi admonished.
Amber nodded, and stepped back.
Gu Ruoxi took a breath, turned around and called Yun Duo in: "The drawings I asked you to send out, have you ever sent them?" After she had commanded the clouds yesterday, she had forgotten about it, but now she remembered it.
"Miss, I'm doing something, do you still need to ask again?" When Yun Duo heard this, he immediately patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I have already sent the drawings, and I have also explained to the shopkeeper, the best wood must be used, and the workmanship must be the finest, and there must not be any rough places, this is always okay, right?" “
Gu Ruoxi confessed yesterday, but she didn't forget a word.
"Did the shopkeeper ever say that it would take time to do it well?" Gu Ruoxi couldn't help asking.
Yun Duo replied: "The shopkeeper said that it will be done in half a month." ”
How long is it going to take? Gu Ruoxi frowned at first, but the next moment she was relieved, there is no such thing as a wheelchair in this era, if a person is injured, or the lower body is disabled, then there is only the saying of lying on the bed to recuperate, the master in the carpenter's shop has never seen a chair with wheels under it, and it is naturally time-consuming to do.
"Okay, in half a month, you go and get it." Gu Ruoxi commanded lightly.
The clouds nodded immediately.
Nothing was said all night.
On the second day, Gu Ruoxi got up and had breakfast, and Liuli walked in from outside and said, "Miss, Aunt Xu sent the maid Yuxiu beside her to invite Miss to the front hall!" ”
Gu Ruoxi originally wanted to go back after a while, but she never thought that Aunt Xu's movements would be so fast! She sighed and said, "You tell that girl to go back!" I'll be there in half an hour. ”
"Yes! Miss. Liuli answered, and immediately turned around and retreated.
Gu Ruoxi sat on the chair and didn't move, continuing to read her book.
Amber looked at her appearance, and immediately knew that her master didn't want to learn anything at all, she was deliberately grinding time, and she would go late if she could.
She couldn't help but sigh and persuaded: "Miss, the slave advises you to go and learn!" King Jing's Mansion is also a big mess! It's time for you to marry......"
"Could it be that the prince married me, just to ask me to deal with the big mess of the palace? Then it's better to find an account room directly! Gu Ruoxi interrupted.
Amber was a little speechless, but when she heard this, she sighed and said, "Miss, that's not what you said......
"I showed a very positive attitude to study, what do you think Aunt Xu will think?" Gu Ruoxi interrupted her and said lightly: "Now that the Hou Mansion is quite calm, I don't want to provoke any more moths, do you know?" ”
When Amber heard this, she understood what Gu Ruoxi meant, she nodded, and stopped talking.
Gu Ruoxi waited for a while
After an hour, he got up and was accompanied by Yunduo to the front hall, while Amber stayed in Zhiyu's courtyard to watch the house.
In a short time, the antechamber arrived.
In the distance, there was a noise in the hall, Gu Ruoxi stood at the door and listened for a moment, and then slowly walked in.
In the room, Aunt Xu, who was dressed in plain clothes, sat expressionlessly at the top of the position, the table in front of her was full of silver coins, account books, and abacus, and the stewards of the Hou Mansion were lining up to receive the cards and silver coins, and then to get the money, many people came in, and many people left.
But such a noisy scene, Aunt Xu didn't even see any panic, the abacus beads in front of her were crackling, she listened to the stewards report things one by one, and then calmly made an analysis, gave the right cards and silver, and in the blink of an eye, she dealt with several things.
This kind of work is tedious and boring, it is like an accountant in a previous life, and when Gu Ruoxi saw this scene, he didn't want to drip into this troubled water more and more. She almost wanted to sneak back quietly while no one found out.
It's a pity that Aunt Xu's eyes are very sharp, as soon as Gu Ruoxi makes a move, she immediately finds out, and immediately motions to Ye Jing, who is in charge, she stands up by herself and welcomes this side with a smile.
"Second Miss, are you here? Take a seat! ”
Hearing Aunt Xu's words, Gu Ruoxi waved her hand again and again: "Auntie, you should go and sit!" The directors are waiting! I'm here to learn and watch, so I'll just sit here. ”
"Second Miss, that's not what you said!" When Aunt Xu heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "You have done so far, and you can't learn anything, can you?" ”
Gu Ruoxi also smiled: "Auntie, this matter is not in a hurry!" My dad said, take your time. "Yapage has a carry.
