From Chapter 784
It was dark, and after Gu Si returned home, he quickly walked out of the courtyard gate.
In the Jing Pavilion, Master Gu Wu and Mrs. Gu Wu both had a sulk in their hearts, and when the two of them dined, they both had cold faces, and then Master Gu Wu naturally had dinner like a dragonfly, while Mrs. Gu Wu ate as usual unaffected.
Gu Fifth Master looked at Mrs. Gu and was even more angry in his heart, in such a situation on weekdays, Mrs. Gu Wu had already taken the initiative to care about him, where would she treat him as if she were ignoring him like today.
Mrs. Gu Wu raised her eyes and saw the arrogant look in Gu Wu's eyes, and she suddenly had no interest in talking to him.
Fifth Master Gu only knew how to speak, but he never thought about the difficulty of Mrs. Gu Wu, Mrs. Gu got up directly and went to the yard to eat, making Old Master Gu so angry that he sat in the room and panted.
Old lady Gu sent someone to ask Master Gu to come over to speak, and before leaving, Master Gu also deliberately examined the expression on Mrs. Gu's face, he saw Mrs. Gu Wu's calm expression, and he strode with the person who came.
Mrs. Gu Wu is a selfless person with a wide world, and she never paid attention to the matter that Old Lady Gu sent someone to spread the word that Gu Fifth Master was going to speak, after all, when a father wants to talk to his son, this is a natural father-son affection.
After Mrs. Gu Wu cleaned up, she entered the inner room freely, the weather was too cold, and it was still warm in the futon.
The lady in charge beside Mrs. Gu Wu entered the inner room, and she saw Mrs. Gu Wu sitting on the bed with a calm expression, so she smiled and said, "Madam, it's still early, do you have something to say when you come in?" ”
Mrs. Gu Wu looked at the lady in charge and nodded with a smile and said, "The room inside here is warm, and the master happens to be not at home, let's talk, I am busy with the affairs of Kai'er's family every day, and I have asked you a lot of things." ”
The lady in charge sat on the small stool with a smile on her face, and Mrs. Gu Wu looked at her and shook her head lightly and said, "You can move a high stool to sit on, this small stool is not comfortable to sit on." ”
The lady in charge looked at Mrs. Gu Wu with a smile and said, "Madam, I'm still used to sitting on a small stool, and when the master comes in, the small stool is easy to move." ”
Mrs. Gu Wu didn't want to embarrass the housekeeper woman, she asked the housekeeper: "It's about to be the New Year, have you already arranged the affairs of your family?" ”
The lady in charge nodded with a smile and said, "Madam, my eldest daughter-in-law can still take care of some things, and the affairs of the family, with her watching, I look at her very properly." ”
Mrs. Gu Wu looked at the lady in charge and smiled, and said, "Then you remember to remind me that during the Chinese New Year, when she came in to pay New Year's greetings, I also gave her a reward, and she didn't embarrass me outside." ”
The lady in charge laughed and said, "Madam, she is a small family that does not deserve the praise of the master, and she will not be able to take care of the small things of her own family, and if she delays it for a few years, when there is a chance, I dare not ask the master for a favor." ”
Mrs. Gu Wu looked at the scattered white hair on the head of the housekeeper woman, she nodded lightly and said, "We are all old, I have always been reluctant to let you go, and now if you want her to come in and do things, then I will also think about you." ”
The lady in charge didn't have any surprised look on her face, she was still able to stay by Mrs. Gu's side at her current age, and that was because Mrs. Gu Wu cared for these old people who were used to it.
But the lady in charge is not the kind of person who doesn't know anything, Mrs. Gu Wu is willing to think about her, and she also has to think more about Mrs. Gu Wu.
The steward's woman whispered, "Master, I am old, and I have been reluctant to leave my master's side, but I also understand that if I had told my master earlier, my master would have considered the person who took over earlier." ”
Mrs. Gu Wu looked at the housekeeper and shook her head lightly and said, "I married in, and you worked as an errand in this courtyard, and then you slowly became my housekeeper.
Now that you are old, I am reluctant to let you go, but I can't keep dragging you and not letting go, I will take care of the affairs of your eldest daughter-in-law, as for the affairs of the person who takes over, I think it will be arranged by the fourth lady.
It's just that I won't talk about this matter outside for the time being, you are doing a good job in the yard, and the fourth lady will definitely talk to you about the things that the person selected, and you can take a look at the person when you arrive.
Even if there will be arrangements for that personnel, it will not be until the end of the year at the earliest, otherwise it will not be possible to find suitable personnel for a while, and it may be delayed for another year. ”
The lady in charge laughed when she heard Mrs. Gu's words, and she said to Mrs. Gu very honestly: "Master, I am old, and I am indeed not as quick as the young woman in some aspects.
If I leave my master, I have to ask my master's permission to allow me to come in and have a look at my master when he is free. ”
Fifth Madam Gu nodded lightly, she now understood more and more the idea that Grand Madam Gu insisted on keeping a few old people around her.
It's just that she is not a person like Mrs. Gu, she always looks forward to the people around her in her heart, and when they get old, they will be able to go home and live in peace for the rest of their lives.
Mrs. Gu was about to forget the age of the housekeeper's wife, but there was an old man beside Mrs. Gu who wanted to go back to recuperate, and Mrs. Gu mentioned it to her, and Mrs. Gu remembered the age of the housekeeper.
The housekeeper woman had already prepared for the matter of going home to recuperate, but Mrs. Gu Wu's heart was a little uncomfortable, but the housekeeper woman had acted too much to her heart over the years.
The lady in charge saw Mrs. Gu's expression, her heart was full of relief, she had always been loyal to Mrs. Gu, and now looking at the reluctant look on her master's face, she felt that all her previous intentions were worth it.
The housekeeper thought about the news of the long house she heard, and she whispered to Mrs. Gu Wu: "Madam, I heard that the maiden family of the second young grandmother Xiu who was outside now wants her daughter and to return to her parents' house. ”
Mrs. Gu Wu listened to the words of the housekeeper, she sat up straight all of a sudden, and the housekeeper was so startled that she hurriedly helped her pull the futon.
Mrs. Gu Wu whispered to the woman in charge, "How true is this matter?" “
The woman in charge helped Mrs. Gu Wu to lie down half-lying, and whispered: "Madam, I sound like there are five true, the Yue family is about to have this thought, and now whether it is successful or not, it depends on the meaning of the Gu family." ”
Mrs. Gu Wu had a thoughtful look on her face, and after thinking about it, she said, "I'm a little curious about what nephew Xiu did to the Yue clan outside?" So soon let the Yue clan die to him, and he already wants to plot another way back? “
The lady in charge whispered: "Master, a person like Second Young Master Xiu has always been cautious and careful in dealing with people.
I heard that it was the second young grandmother who figured it out, and she didn't have that mind, and then the two fell out. ”
Mrs. Gu Wu listened to the words of the housekeeper, she sighed softly and said, "If the Yue family doesn't go to that side door, she is such a meticulous character, and with a few years of hard work, she may not be able to warm her husband's heart."
Now it's a chicken, a fight, she can't get any benefits, the second young master doesn't take any light, the most pitiful thing is the two children, the father can't get close, and the mother has other thoughts now. ”
