Chapter 116: Crow's Beak
The fire was extinguished, but in the Beisan Hutong, which had not slept all night, every household did not rest.
Gu Yunjin took Nian Xia and Fu Dong to clean up the house.
Last night, when the incident happened suddenly, no one bothered to close the window, and after a whole night, a layer of black ash accumulated in the house.
After wiping for half an hour, only Xu's main house was completely cleaned.
Xu Shi had already fallen asleep, she was not in good health, she smoked again, she couldn't stop coughing, she knew that blindly being strong would only make Wu and Gu Yunjin busier, so she rested according to her family's wishes.
But she didn't rest well.
Between breaths, the smell of burnt lingered, her chest was so stuffy that she wanted to cough when she gasped, even if she tried to suppress it, from time to time, there would still be times when she couldn't help it.
Occasionally, I was out of breath and coughed so much that I almost had to pull out my heart and lungs.
Gu Yunjin stood in the courtyard, trembling when he heard it, thinking of what Xia Yi had taken care of, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
She should change places to recuperate for the Xu family, but now, where can she find a place to live?
In the alley, there are outsiders from time to time.
Mama Shen took a look and said, "There are a few neighbors who have relatives and friends in Beijing, and when they get the news, they come to see that the house is spacious, and they seem to want to take the elderly and children to live for a while." ”
When Fu Dong heard this, he pursed his lips and said, "We are relatives in the Eight Classics, but it's past noon, and we haven't seen anyone." ”
Cuizhu rolled her eyes unabashedly, she had long lost hope in the Shilang Mansion.
Fu Dong rubbed his handkerchief and said, "Doesn't Second Master Yu come every day?" Why is this one gone? ”
"Don't talk about him!" Cuizhu stomped his feet, "I'm tired all night, who still has the energy to deal with him, it's best not to come." ”
As he spoke, there was a knock at the door.
Cuizhu asked Yang Xiyu to knock on the door for a while, so he gasped, glared at Fu Dong and said, "Don't be your crow's mouth!" ”
Fu Dong was also stunned.
Mama Shen pricked up her ears and listened, and said, "One by one, it's quite well-behaved, it's not heavy or light, it doesn't seem to be the second master of Yu's person." ”
After speaking, Mama Shen went out to open the door, and when she saw that someone was standing outside listening to the wind, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Tingfeng picked up the food box in his hand and said with a smile: "Our master asked Miss Gu to bring snacks, thank you for the steamed bun pickles in the morning." ”
Gu Yunjin came over when he heard this, and when he heard this, he laughed: "A few steamed buns, a few chopsticks and pickles, it's so simple that it's nothing at all, the little grandfather is polite, and he specially asked you to send it." ”
Listening to Feng Mei's eyes, he entered the courtyard, put the food box on the stone table in the courtyard, and opened it for Gu Yunjin to see.
"Miss Gu's words are too polite, our lord has been hungry all night, and the steamed buns and pickles taste like delicacies from the mountains and seas, if they don't taste good, how can you let you add them again?" Listening to the wind smiled and said, "The dim sum is made at noon in the imperial dining room, and the girl told the county lord that you like jujube paste crisp and crystal osmanthus cake, and the lord asked the imperial dining room to install more." ”
Gu Yunjin looked at the two snacks in the food box, and didn't know how to answer this sentence for a while.
She said that to the county lord of Shou'an last time, not only the county lord wrote it down, but even Jiang Muyuan knew it, and this thought was really detailed.
The intermittent coughing sound of the Xu family coming from the room brought Gu Yunjin back to his senses.
After thinking about it for a while, Gu Yunjin asked Tingfengdao: "When will the reconstruction and repair of the North First and North Second Hutongs begin?" How long is it going to last? ”
Listening to the wind, he replied: "This matter has not yet been decided, the lord accompanied the queen mother to dine at noon, and went to the palace after leaving the palace, and it is estimated that today and tomorrow will make a rough constitution with Lord Shao and the adults of the Ministry of Industry." ”
Gu Yunjin pursed her lips, although she didn't give a detailed answer, she also knew in her heart that no matter when the construction started, it would take three or May to rebuild, and it would already be good to let the victims go home and live before the winter of this year.
But Xu's body can't withstand so many months of tossing.
It seems that it is still necessary to discuss with the Wu family and the Xu family again.
After listening to the wind and sending the snacks, he said goodbye, and just after bypassing the shadow wall, he looked up and saw a carriage parked at the gate of the Gu family's courtyard.
Cuizhu looked at the family crest of the Yang family on the car, the roots of his teeth hurt, turned his head to look at Fudong, and said with a sad face: "It's still a crow's mouth!" ”
Yang Xiyu got down from the carriage, his eyes all fell on Gu Yunjin, he stepped forward a few steps, and said with concern: "Cousin, are you frightened by such a big fire?" Don't be afraid, the fire is gone, it doesn't matter. ”
The corners of Fu Dong's lips twitched, would their girls be afraid? On the contrary, it was Yang Xiyu, if he saw the powerful and capable appearance of the girl last night, he would be so frightened that his feet trembled.
Gu Yunjin turned sideways to avoid Yang Xiyu, extremely impatient: "Don't you see that every household in the alley is busy?" With such a wide carriage, what road are you blocking when you come in? Get out of here, I don't have time to talk nonsense to you. ”
Yang Xiyu was willing to be obedient, and said, "Cousin, don't rush to catch up, I'm here to pick you up and your aunt from the Gu family back to Shilang's mansion."
The Hutong was damaged, and it was not convenient for you to live here, and the whole of the Shilang's Mansion was not worried about you, especially the aunt's body, it was better to go back to the house to recuperate.
You see, Brother You has returned to study at home, and I will move back in the next few days, your Orchid Garden is cleaned and cleaned up every day, and the place is also spacious, and you and your aunt and sister-in-law are enough to live with. ”
Gu Yunjin laughed when she heard this, she laughed angrily.
She said, no wonder Yang Xiyu didn't come quickly to mutter after the fire was extinguished today, but came so late, it turned out that he was discussing this with the Yang family.
Yang's mind is easy to guess, for the sake of face and lining, Old Lady Xu and Xu Yan will not refuse them to avoid disasters, only Old Lady Min ......
I'm afraid the Yang family has spent a lot of words.
However, Gu Yunjin didn't want to move back to Shilang's Mansion at all.
To tell the truth, moved back, did the Xu family go to recuperate or to be angry?
"Not moving." Gu Yunjin only has two words.
After speaking, she nodded to Tingfeng, turned around and entered the courtyard, and closed the door with a bang.
Yang Xiyu noticed Tingfeng at this time, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Why are you here?" But the little grandfather ......"
As soon as the words came out, Yang Xiyu also felt that something was wrong, Jiang Muyuan and Gu Yunjin were said to have only met at the flower viewing banquet, and Gu Yunjin was only familiar with the county lord......
Listening to the wind, his face did not change, and he said lightly: "The little grandfather participated in the firefighting last night, and I came to Beisan Hutong during the day to see the disaster, and there are still some aftermath things that have not been decided, let me ask the people in the Hutong again."
Second son Yang, Miss Gu is right, the people from the government and the city defense camp will come over in a while, and it is really inappropriate for you to have such a carriage blocked here.
Hurry up and go, don't block the road.
I'll go next door and ask, and I'll take my leave. ”
Yang Xiyu was so choked by the official tone that he couldn't speak, but he couldn't help it, he was a relative of the little grandfather, and he couldn't afford to provoke him easily.
Listening to the wind, he no longer paid attention to Yang Xiyu, walked to the door of Mrs. Jia's courtyard, and knocked on the door pretendingly.
