Chapter 370: The Eve of the Return Journey (2)
Seeing that Jiang Zhiming looked like he wanted to talk to Gu Yutang alone, Lin knew that if he continued to stay in the house, he was afraid that Jiang Zhiming would be embarrassed to tell Gu Yutang in front of him what he was thinking.
The Lin family had no intention of disturbing the two of them, so he ordered the maid who was waiting around him to say a few words, and said to Gu Yutang in front of him.
"Sister Tang, looking at the appearance of the Jiang family's son, there must be something I want to say to Sister Tang! So Grandmother went out first, and left this room for you, so that you and the young couple would not be disturbed to reminisce. ”
Before Lin went out, he also took out all the maids and women who were waiting in the house, in order not to let others disturb their little couple to catch up.
"Look, grandmother treats us two so well! In order not to let those maids and women who were waiting disturb the two of us getting along, before going out, I also took out all the maids and women who were waiting in the house.
If I marry you back to the Hou Mansion, when do you want to go home to visit your grandmother, I will accompany you back. ”
Jiang Zhiming said, holding Gu Yutang's hands, Gu Yutang's hands tightened tighter, and refused to let go for a moment.
"Jiang Zhiming, if I marry into your Hou Mansion, if you dare to do anything to bully me, I won't be able to spare you the first time.
And if you treat me well, don't expect me to treat you well, you also know what kind of person I Gu Yutang is. ”
Gu Yutang looked at Jiang Zhiming, who looked like a hippie smile in front of him, and told her a few words angrily.
"Okay, whatever you say is good. Besides, my wife, when did my husband say that he didn't listen to my wife?"
Jiang Zhiming saw Gu Yutang's unhappy face, thinking about saying these words, coaxing her to be happy.
But instead of being happy, Gu Yutang became even more angry.
"Jiang Zhiming, I haven't married you yet, you are really kind to your wife every sentence!
If you return to Chengjiang, you call me like this in front of others, don't you want me to become the laughing stock of others, although we have a marriage contract, but in the end I haven't married.
If I let others know that the bride has not yet married, and I hook up with the groom, will I be laughed to death by others! ”
Listening to Gu Yutang's reply, Jiang Zhiming only knew this time, it turned out that Gu Yutang was not very happy just now, just for this matter!
Indeed, the folk customs of Pengpu are simple, and everyone can walk around the streets without wearing a veil.
But Chengjiang is not good, if everyone does not wear a hat veil, if they go to the street to walk around, they will be mistaken for a laughing warbler in the wild gate.
If a girl's family that has not yet married is called Mrs. by a man on the street, the girl's family will be judged as a laughing stock.
The girls of the big family are all raised in the embroidery building, and they can't get out of the embroidery building without getting married, and they can't step out of the second door without getting married. Where would it be like Gu Yutang now, who has not only gone out of the second gate but also out of the gate, and is still swaggering on the street and swaggering through the market.
After thinking about this in his mind, Jiang Zhiming still agreed to Gu Yutang's request.
"Tang'er, I promise you that's it. If there are many people in the future, I will never call you my wife, I will call you little lady, and this will be all right, right?"
"Whatever you want, you can shout as much as you like, anyway, you're used to it, can I still stop you from calling me like this?"
Gu Yutang finished speaking, got up from the bamboo chair, pushed open the door and called Ah Hua, who was guarding outside the house.
Seeing Gu Yutang go out of the house, Jiang Zhiming immediately chased him out, but he dared to open the door and disappeared.
Fortunately, when Gu Yutang went out, there was a maid waiting in front of the house.
"Where did the three girls go? Do you see a figure?"
"Back to the Jiang family's son-in-law, the third girl went in the direction of Ruiyue Courtyard, and I heard that Sister Ahua said that Aunt Hong heard that the third girl was going back to Chengjiang, so she asked people to prepare a banquet and wanted to invite the third girl to use it."
The maid pointed in the direction of Ruiyue Courtyard and replied to Jiang Zhiming's words.
"You know, you keep busy with yours!" Jiang Zhiming said, and instructed Ah Liang behind him to reward the little maid guarding the door with half a penny, and also went in the direction of Ruiyue Courtyard.
In the courtyard of Ruiyue, in the warm pavilion. After Aunt Hong gave birth, she moved from the front room to the warm pavilion at the back.
Now that Aunt Hong's body is very good, but the miscarriage has hurt the root after all, if you want to be completely well, I am afraid that it will take many days of conditioning.
Aunt Hong's face was pale, with only a few sparse hairpins fixed in the bun, wearing a pale pink jacket embroidered with cherry blossom patterns, leaning crookedly on the soft couch by the window, and covering a few thick brocade quilts embroidered with honeysuckle patterns, and two maids under the soft couch were taking care of the warm decoction in the silver hanger.
Glancing at Gu Yutang who came in, Aunt Hong forced her head to straighten on the soft couch, and instructed the maid who was waiting next to her to bring the embroidery stool and let Gu Yutang sit on it, and Aunt Hong continued.
"I heard that the master came over yesterday and said that Sister Tang will leave for Chengjiang tomorrow, I don't know if it's true?"
"Auntie is right, Grandmother Feng has instructed the mother-in-law who is waiting at the second gate to prepare the carriage, and Tang'er will accompany her grandmother and will leave for Chengjiang tomorrow."
With a faint smile, Gu Yutang replied to Aunt Hong's words in front of him.
"It's not yet Chinese New Year's Eve, Sister Tang might as well stay in the mansion for a few more days." On Chinese New Year's Eve, I called the master again and personally sent Sister Tang and Mrs. Lin back to Chengjiang together.
These days, I have been lying on the couch, and I have not been well with Sister Tang, and I have been negligent in this Punpu City for a few more trips. ”
Aunt Hong talked and talked about herself, and used the reason why she was lying on the couch these days to prevaricate about not treating Gu Yutang and the Lin family well.
"Auntie, where are these words? My aunt's body is better, don't say these foolish words again. Now that my aunt has taken care of her body, she will give birth to a big fat boy in the second room next year, which is the most important thing for my aunt to do at present. Gu Yutang deliberately reminded Aunt Hong a few words, and said to her like this.
"With my current body, where can I give birth to a big fat boy for the second room? Sister Tang, don't coax me, I know the current state of my body, if I want to have a child, I'm afraid it's more difficult than climbing to the sky. Aunt Hong finished speaking, and began to sigh.
Could it be that Aunt Hong can't get pregnant anymore?
A few days ago, Gu Lihua made a special trip to the hall to ask her grandmother to ask for something about Dr. Qin, could it be because Aunt Hong is difficult to get pregnant now?
"Auntie, don't say those frustrating words, my aunt and the sixth uncle have always been very affectionate, how can they have no children? And this is pregnant, and it is not something that can be asked for.
If the aunt has nothing to do on weekdays, it is better to take a few maids and go to the Guanyin Hall in the city to burn incense, the Guanyin Palace's sending son Guanyin is the most effective, maybe the aunt will beg, Guanyin Bodhisattva will send the child to the aunt is not necessarily?"
Gu Yutang still looked at the face of his sixth uncle, and kindly persuaded Aunt Hong in front of him.
She knew that the red aunt in front of her had also calculated her and assassinated her behind her back.
But those things are in the past, and now that Aunt Hong has been poisoned by the Qi family, she has lost the child in her womb, maybe this is the old lady's punishment for her.
If she continues to hold a grudge, won't she become the same person as Aunt Hong? She didn't want to be blinded by those grievances and hatreds, and she still wanted to help Aunt Hong in front of her.
Hearing Gu Yutang ignore her past suspicions and say so many things to her, Aunt Hong also smiled, and instructed the girl who was waiting next to her to take down the carved red lacquered wooden box placed on the Bogu shelf and handed it to Ah Hua's hand behind Gu Yutang.
"I know that you are going to leave for Chengjiang, and I have nothing to give you. This set of jewelry, when Mrs. Cai was still alive, made a special trip to Chengjiang's old Sheng family to order, the style is still the most popular style of inlaid pearl glass this year, you open it to see, do you like it?"
Aunt Hong said this, and Ah Hua opened the red lacquered wood box.
Sure enough, as soon as I opened it, I saw a dazzling light shoot out of the box.
It turned out that when Ah Hua opened the box just now, a ray of sunlight outside the house came in through the gap in the window lattice and shone on the set of jewelry.
The glass beads inlaid on the silver hairpin burst out with a dazzling white light under the sunlight.
"Sister Tang, this set of jewelry is made by the master of the old Sheng family, it is the most meticulous, I know that the marriage between you and the son of the Jiang family has been decided, why don't you accept my set of jewelry and make your dowry at the bottom of the box?"
Aunt Hong didn't dare to conclude whether Gu Yutang would really accept that set of jewelry, so she still asked with a little doubt.
Gu Yutang glanced at the set of jewelry, and then moved his gaze to Aunt Hong in front of him, as the so-called uselessness, Aunt Hong suddenly took out a set of such expensive jewelry and asked her to accept it, there must be something to ask for her.
In this case, she listened to the red aunt in front of her, what she wanted to ask of her.
"Auntie, as the saying goes, you don't have merit to get rid of it, and now you have given me such valuable jewelry, if you need my help in anything, just say. If Tang'er can do it, she will definitely help her aunt. ”
Gu Yutang said lightly, but Aunt Hong in front of her took it seriously, thinking that Gu Yutang could really help her.
"Sister Tang, even if I don't say it, you should know. Mrs. Feng does not belong to me as the eldest wife of the family, I still have a child in my womb, she will not pry the master for the time being, and set up a new wife.
But now that I have no child in my womb, if the old lady is holding the old man and setting up a new wife at this moment, maybe the old man will agree as soon as he relieves his mouth. I gave you that set of jewelry, in fact, I just want you to help me and say a few kind words for me in front of Mrs. Feng. ”
Aunt Hong looked at Gu Yutang in front of her, and at the same time took the tea cup from the maid in the pantry and placed it on the small table next to Gu Yutang.
