Chapter 331: Single-mindedness
Looking at Gu Yutang in front of him, looking like he was about to take care of this matter to the end, there were a few ripples in Lin's heart.
If Sister Tang continues to mess around like this, even if Aunt Hong is brought to justice at that time, but Aunt Hong is pregnant with a child in the second room, not only Gu Lihua, but I am afraid that Feng Lao'an will not be too harsh on her for the child in Aunt Hong's womb.
But if this matter is stirred up by Sister Tang and does not give face to the second room, then the gap between the long room and the second room is getting bigger and bigger.
At that time, the two families will be strangers because of this matter, what should they do?
Lin Shi paused, raised his eyes to look at Gu Yutang, and began a new exhortation, persuading Gu Yutang bitterly.
"Sister Tang, since you are a girl living in the second room, you represent not only yourself, but also our entire long house!
You are a girl from the long house, if you offend your sixth uncle because of such a trivial matter, and the red aunt can't get off the stage, I'm afraid that your sixth uncle will be angry for a while, and it will hurt the harmony with the long house! ”
The Lin family persuaded a few words bitterly, but Gu Yutang didn't listen to a word, and his face was still faint, without an expression on the side. Only replied.
"What grandmother said, Tang'er remembered, in the future, Tang'er will definitely focus on the long house, and will not let the long house and grandmother be implicated by Tang'er."
Hearing Gu Yutang say this, Lin's heart, which had been hanging for a long time, gradually calmed down, she thought that Gu Yutang had listened to it, and after a few more words, she ordered Mama Liang to send Gu Yutang out of the hall.
When Gu Yutang came out, the sky had gradually darkened, and in the corner of the corridor, there was already a mother-in-law in charge of sweeping, commanding the maids who were waiting below, adding sesame oil to the oil lamps hanging on the corridor.
The maid and the mother-in-law were busy for a while, and then the oil lamps of the entire corridor were lit, and the corridor suddenly became bright, and the wind was strong at night, and the mother-in-law put down the bamboo curtains hanging in the corridor to block the wind.
However, there was still a slight breeze that seeped through the cracks in the bamboo curtains, blowing the light of the fire covered by the lampshade and flickering a few times.
Mama Liang followed closely behind Gu Yutang, waiting for her to leave the hall every step of the way. When she arrived at the three-way intersection, Gu Yutang suddenly stopped, did not turn around, but asked her.
"Mama, do you also think that Tang'er has done something inappropriate?"
Mama Liang didn't answer her, but replied lightly.
"Girl, the old lady has persuaded the girl so much, right and wrong, the girl should know it in her heart. But what the girl wants to do, just do it! You have a long room and an old lady above you, and the eldest lady is protecting you, even if the sixth master and Aunt Nahong want to criticize the girl, it won't work. ”
What Mama Liang meant was that she was in favor of investigating this matter? She has a long house above her, and her grandmother and mother protect her, even if the sixth uncle and Aunt Nahong want to blame her, because she is a girl in the long house, it is not good to be too harsh.
But those people did not criticize her too hard only in the face of her grandmother and mother, and if she had not been protected by her grandmother and mother, they would have been harsh on her.
Gu Yutang thought about things in his heart and was silent for a long time.
Mama Liang behind her looked at Gu Yutang stunned in place, and after not speaking for a long time, she knew that Gu Yutang was thinking about things.
If the third girl really wants to investigate the matter of Aunt Hong framing the Qi family, she will inevitably offend the sixth master and Aunt Hong, and now that Aunt Hong is pregnant with a child in her womb, I am afraid that the sixth master will not severely punish Aunt Hong because the girl found out the evidence.
Unless those pieces of evidence are handed over to the county government and interrogated by the county magistrate in person, even if the sixth master has the heart to protect Aunt Hong, he is afraid that he will not dare to risk the royal law to save Aunt Hong, right?
However, if you want to send the red aunt into the county hall, in addition to letting the pink girl tell the truth, she also needs the help of one person.
Mama Liang was originally reluctant to help Gu Yutang, but seeing her categorical appearance, she still wanted to help her.
Taking over the lantern lit by the maid behind her, Mama Liang walked in front of Gu Yutang, illuminating the way ahead for Gu Yutang.
"If the girl really wants to return the innocence of the pink maid, the girl still has to find out the evidence that Aunt Hong framed the Qi family for stealing property.
It's just that there are too few flaws in this matter, even if the third girl knows the flaws in the matter, she can't do it. But I still asked the girl to see the peach, and maybe she would know something from her. ”
Mama Liang said, handed the lantern in her hand to Ah Hua beside Gu Yutang, and said a few more words.
"Ah Hua, you are the eldest lady who came to serve the girl, no matter when, the girl is your master, you have to protect her, don't let the girl be hurt. The girl investigates this matter, and she may touch Aunt Hong's sore spot, so you still have to be on the side and mention the girl. ”
After Mama Liang finished instructing Ah Hua, she took the maid who came out of the hall and followed the original road and turned back.
When he returned to the East Chamber, Gu Yutang saw the stone sitting on the boulder in the East Chamber, still holding a letter in his hand, as if waiting for her to come back.
Shi raised his head and saw Gu Yutang walking towards this side, hurriedly grabbed the letter in his hand, ran towards Gu Yutang, and handed the letter in his hand to Gu Yutang's hand.
smiled and said: "Third girl, this is the letter that my son-in-law instructed the little maid to send, you can open it and take a look!" ”
Looking at the stone with a gray face, it was as if the wind and sand had been stained on his face after staying here for a long time.
Gu Yutang didn't rush to open the letter Jiang Zhiming wrote to her, but instructed Ah Hua beside him: "Bring the stone brother in, order the stove to get hot water, and wait for the stone brother to freshen up." ”
Listening to Gu Yutang's instructions, Ah Hua's face gradually became hot, and he looked at the stone opposite, only to realize that the stone had been looking at him. She hurriedly lowered her head, combed her somewhat messy hair, and went to the stove.
Seeing Ah Hua go to the stove, Shi's mind seemed to follow Ah Hua and went to the stove.
Looking at the stone and looking at Ah Hua, looking fascinated, Gu Yutang hurriedly pulled the corners of his clothes.
"Don't look at the stones, if you look at them again, they will come out. If you really think about Ah Hua, you can marry Ah Hua back, and save her from being by my side and talking about you all day long. If you speak of a thousand good things, you are like a young man in the world, and they are not as good as you. ”
Hearing Gu Yutang say this, Shi immediately lowered his head, with a hot smile on his face, and asked again, "Third girl, did Miss Ahua really say that about me?"
Looking at the stone with a shy look, there is really a big difference between him and his son-in-law.
In those days with Jiang Zhiming, she had never seen Jiang Zhiming shy, but it was right to think about it, as long as Jiang Zhiming's skin was as thick as the city wall, where would she know what the word 'shy' was?
Gu Yutang poked the stone in front of him that was stunned in place with his finger and smirked for a long time.
"Brother Shi, aren't you a demonic barrier? What are you doing when you are standing still and smirking?"
was pulled into reality by Gu Yutang's sudden words, the stone entered the room, sat on the stool and chair that Da Han had moved, and placed the brewed tea cup on the high table next to the stone, Da Han pulled Gu Yutang to a corner, and whispered into Gu Yutang's ear.
"Girl, the green girl who was waiting next to Aunt Hong came over, saying that she wanted to come and see the girl. Now that she's resting in the backyard, do you want the slave to invite her over?"
Da Han said, pushing open the carved wooden window behind him, Gu Yutang saw that the house in the backyard was indeed brightly lit, as if someone was sitting inside.
Closing the window tightly, Gu Yutang handed the letter that the stone in his hand gave her to Da Han, and said: "The letter written to me by the son of the Jiang family is placed under my pillow, and then the stone is well entertained in the house, if Ah Hua comes in, call her to find me in the backyard." ”
As soon as the words fell, Gu Yutang hurriedly drank a blue luochun in the tea tray, pushed open the door, and headed towards the backyard.
Guarding in front of the backyard was the winter solstice, and the winter solstice saw Gu Yutang walking towards the backyard, and hurriedly greeted him and explained for a while.
"Girl, you have finally come back, and the girl has been sitting in the house for half an hour, saying that she must wait for the girl to come back and see her before she will leave. The slave maid saw that the sky was gradually darkening, and thought that the girl was coming back soon, so she took the girl to the backyard. ”
As he spoke, Dong Solstice lifted a corner of the curtain hanging outside, allowing Gu Yutang to take a look at the room, where Shui Lu was sitting on the soft couch, drinking tea, as if waiting for him to come back.
"In addition to Shui Lu, did Ruiyue Courtyard bring anyone else?" Gu Yutang glanced at the winter solstice in front of her and saw that she was in a bit of a hurry on her face.
"No, girl. Except for the water green girl who came alone, no one else came. Dong Solstice said, lifted the curtain, and entered the house with Gu Yutang in his arms.
Shui Lu, who was sitting on the soft couch, saw Gu Yutang walk in, got off the soft couch busily, greeted him in person, and saluted before saying.
"Third girl, you really call the slave and maid to wait! I don't know what the three girls are going to do tonight, the slave and maid have been waiting here for an hour, and they haven't seen the three girls return for a long time. My wife called the slave and maid to come over, and she wanted to talk to the third girl about something. ”
Listening to the meaning of Shui Lu's words, it was Aunt Hong who called her over, but she had no friendship with Aunt Hong, if there was no other reason, how could this Aunt Hong personally call Shui Lu to come over to see her?
Gu Yutang sat on the soft couch beside him, and the winter solstice was guarding in front of the door.
"Water Green Girl, Ming people don't say secret words, your wife called you over, what do you want to say? Are you trying to persuade me to stop, or is it something else?"
Shui Lu smiled wryly, picked up the tea cup beside him, and did not drink it in a hurry, but replied.
"What did the girl say, and what did she not stop? However, my wife called me over this time, and she really wanted to ask the third girl for something, but please rest assured that the third girl must be able to do this! ”
Shui Lu said as he took out three silver tickets worth one hundred taels from his purse and put them on the small table in front of Gu Yutang.
"What is this doing? Do you want to take the silver ticket and buy me? ”
Gu Yutang looked at the fineness of the silver ticket, as if he had just taken it out of the silver number, but I was afraid that Aunt Hong specially took it out of the ticket number in order to buy her, right?
Shui Lu first smiled faintly, and then said: "The third girl is really joking, there is nothing to buy or not buy." These silver tickets are what the three girls deserve. ”
Gu Yutang didn't care about Shui Lu's words, and the tea lid gently tapped the tea bowl, making a crisp porcelain collision sound.
"As the saying goes, if you don't have merit, the source of these three hundred taels of silver is unknown, and I won't accept it. The green girl may wish to say bluntly, although I have always been at odds with your wife, I will not blame you for these things. ”
Seeing Gu Yutang say this, Shui Lu was willing to open the skylight and say something bright.
"My wife said that the third girl is a smart person, and a smart person must look like a smart person. The third girl has been investigating Mrs. Qi being framed by Taohong for stealing the property in the house these days, and my wife wants the third girl not to investigate.
The three girls are maids from the long house, and they can't make trouble for a maid who serves people, so they don't look good on each other's faces. ”
Want to buy her with three hundred taels of silver tickets? This Aunt Hong also underestimates her too much, right? With only three hundred taels of silver tickets, how could she be eye-catching?
Besides, even if Aunt Hong took three thousand taels of silver tickets to buy her, she would not be bought.
"Aunt Hong took three hundred taels of silver tickets to buy me, did she see me too clearly? But don't say it's three hundred taels, even if your wife comes up with three thousand taels of silver to buy me, it won't work!
Go back and tell your wife that she will break this heart! I will definitely investigate this matter clearly, and it will be fair! Gu Yutang finished speaking, and pushed back the three hundred taels of silver tickets on the table.
"Third girl, don't toast or eat! My wife can give you three hundred taels of silver, regardless of the previous suspicions, giving you a lot of face, and now you don't accept it, do you want to put my wife's face anywhere?" Shui Lu immediately didn't give Gu Yutang face, and said this coldly.
