On this day, when Mrs. Gu and her concubines gathered, Mrs. Gu was in charge, and their concubines had to talk freely in one place, so that they didn't need the juniors to serve on the side.

The Hua family naturally had to obey Mrs. Gu's arrangement, Second Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter-in-law and nodded, and Third Mrs. Gu could only nod when she looked at her daughter-in-law.

After the Hua family and the concubines retreated, in the courtyard, the Hua family looked at the two younger siblings and wanted to explain something.

But Hua Shi thought about it carefully, and she didn't have anything to say, so she could only say to her two younger siblings: "Then let's go back separately." ”

The three of them left separately, but the people in the third room were not at ease waiting for the news in their own yards.

Mrs. Gu and the three of them sat in the room, and the three of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward for a while.

Mrs. Gu looked at the two younger siblings, and she said very sincerely: "In the end, the three of us are still close. ”

Second Lady Gu looked at Eldest Lady Gu, and she was silent.

Second Master Gu told her that when Old Lady Gu was gone, the people in their room would not be cheeky and continue to stay in the ancestral house, and their family would go out to live in the small courtyard given by the old lady Gu.

Old lady Gu's body is obviously a little bad, so after Gu Youkai's family affairs are settled, he will decide the date of marriage so quickly.

Second Madam Gu has always been silent, and Mrs. Gu was not surprised by her silence, she looked at Third Madam Gu with a smile and asked, "Third brother and sister, am I right, the three of us are close?" ”

Mrs. Gu San could only nod lightly and said, "The five of us have always been very close, and the fourth and fifth siblings have something to go out, and they also specially sent someone to talk to me." ”

Second Lady Gu nodded lightly on the side and said, "They also sent someone over to talk to me." ”

Mrs. Gu's face was not very good-looking, Second Mrs. Gu and Third Mrs. Gu looked at each other, and the two of them came together to talk.

Second Mrs. Gu said to Mrs. Gu San: "Kai'er's family affair is to pick the first auspicious day after the New Year, third brother and sister, what kind of meeting gift are you going to give to your nephew and daughter-in-law?" ”

Mrs. Gu San looked at Mrs. Gu with a smile and said, "The gift I gave to my nephew and daughter-in-law has always been the same. Second sister-in-law, what about you? ”

Second Mrs. Gu nodded lightly and said, "Our family has a friendship with the Cheng family, but I think we still have to treat them equally when it comes to preparing meeting gifts." ”

Mrs. Gu San nodded lightly on the side and said, "After Kai'er's family affairs were settled, I only heard about Miss Chengjia. ”

Mrs. Gu raised her eyes to look at them and said, "I'm different from you, the family is the family of our Gu family, and we are the elders, so we always have to give the family some face." ”

Second Mrs. Gu was silent, the same nephew and daughter-in-law, she couldn't do two things, and she wouldn't break the hearts of other nephews and daughters-in-law for the sake of one nephew and daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Gu San looked at Mrs. Gu, she just smiled slightly and said, "It's all up to your heart." ”

Mrs. Gu looked at the two of them with some disdain and said, "You are too bold, at our age now, living one day at a time, naturally how comfortable and how to come." ”

Second Mrs. Gu tolerated it, and Third Mrs. Gu looked at Mrs. Gu and persuaded in a low voice: "We live one day at a time, but the children have to live a long time, they always have to get along in one place, our elders' minds are too biased, and the children are not easy to get along." ”

Mrs. Gu looked at Mrs. Gu and shook her head and said: "You say every day that your children and grandchildren have their own blessings, how come when it comes to doing things, you always shrink back and don't feel uncomfortable surviving in this life?" ”

Second Madam Gu took a look at Mrs. Gu's expression, she looked at the sky outside, she said to Mrs. Gu with some uncertainty: "Sister-in-law, I seem to hear the cry of my little grandson, I'd better go and take a look at him." ”

Second Madam Gu didn't wait for Mrs. Gu to react, she had already gotten up and left, and Mrs. Gu was a little annoyed.

Mrs. Gu listened carefully at this time, and she also got up and said, "Sister-in-law, I can also hear the child's crying here, probably the child is crying a little hard." ”

Mrs. Gu said that she wanted to go to see the child, she took a look at Mrs. Gu and invited, "Sister-in-law, do you want to go together?" ”

Mrs. Gu shook her head and said, "I have old arms and legs, and I have long been free from that burden." ”

Mrs. Gu hurriedly walked out of the room, and Mrs. Gu ordered someone to go out and have a look.

Mrs. Gu San walked out of the courtyard door of the long house, she exhaled lightly, she saw the Zeng family walking again and again at the intersection, she walked over and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”

Zeng Shi looked back and saw Mrs. Gu San, and immediately laughed, and said, "Mother, if you don't come out yet, I'm thinking about whether I should learn a trick from the sisters-in-law in the second room, take the children out of the family, and make them fake crying here." ”

Mrs. Gu San looked in the direction pointed by Zeng, she happened to see Mrs. Gu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law holding a child on the way home, and when she looked up, the child had a smile on her face, and she also shook her little hand happily at Mrs. Gu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Mrs. Gu San looked at the child and laughed, she smiled with Zeng and said, "The child is young, they don't know anything yet, she only thinks it's fun, this matter can only be done once, and it must not be done a second time." ”

Zeng nodded with a smile and said, "Mother, don't worry, sister-in-law is also an understanding person, she just asked the child, how do you express laughter and crying?" Then the child took the initiative to learn to laugh and cry for a while. ”

After Mrs. Gu San sighed softly in her heart, she whispered to Zeng's family: "I look at the long house now, your sister-in-law can still be a little bit of home, and the girls in the yard are a little more vigilant than before." ”

Zeng looked at Mrs. Gu's expression and asked in a low voice, "Mother, didn't the eldest aunt say anything embarrassing to her mother?" ”

Mrs. Gu San laughed slightly, and said, "It's just gossip, some words are not speculative, just because the child's cry came out earlier." ”

The girl sent by Mrs. Gu stood outside the courtyard, she looked a little embarrassed, she also heard the child's cry when she was in the room, and after she came out, she didn't hear the cry.

When the girl walked out of the courtyard gate, she only dared to take a few more steps, only to see the back of Mrs. Gu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

She quietly asked the woman in the porter's room, and the woman confirmed: "The young grandmother in the second room took the child to play at the intersection for a while, and the child did cry a few times. ”

The girl entered the room with peace of mind and reported to Mrs. Gu, who frowned slightly after hearing this and said: "Nowadays, people are more and more unable to take children, in such weather, they also hold their children outside to play, and they are not afraid that the children will open their mouths and eat the cold wind to enter, will the little belly not be able to stand it?" ”
