Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Good Cure for Bitter Meat
The daughter of the housewife, such a shocking news, naturally alarmed the whole house.
In the blink of an eye, the courtyard in the vestibule of Linxinglou was full of aunts and subordinates in each room.
When Mo Yanqing arrived, the courtyard was full of theater watchers, and her heart was about to jump out of her chest. "You guys, are you idle and have nothing to do? What are you doing here? ”
Mrs. Gan was hurt by the noisy roar she ignored, and she stiffened her face and whispered.
"Please all the aunts go back to their own yards and rest." Zhuyu stepped forward and said, "You all go down to work and take care of your mouths." ”
Mo Yanqing suddenly felt that her face was hot, as if she had been slapped twice by Mrs. Gan. Even a girl knows what to do at this time, but when she rushes up, she will only spread fire.
Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath, always feeling that she had been getting more and more chaotic lately. All the bad things, one after another, are powerless to parry, except for anger, only anger is left.
"Mother, I want to go see Lady Lu first." Mo Yanqing adjusted her emotions and suppressed her anger for the time being, and her eyes flashed with tears.
Mrs. Gan also sighed again and again: "It's okay, I'll go with you." ”
One after the other, the two walked through the cloister into the inner courtyard.
Liu Rumei came to Gan Peilin's side at this time: "This is too sudden." Obviously, the dowry gifts prepared by King Shengqing before were all prepared according to the grade of our Great Sima Mansion. But this time, there were dozens of carriages for the dowry sent to Shi Yeguo with the proposing team. How could it be so well prepared in such a short period of time? ”
"In other words, it wasn't prepared in such a short time." Gan Peilin said this quietly.
"You mean to say that King Shengqing has had such a plan since he saw Princess Qingning, so ......" Liu Rumei looked at her face slightly gloomy, and didn't continue to say the rest of the words. I can't complain. Hum. It's easy to see their mother and daughter. ”
"What the sixth aunt has to do now is to appease the emotions of the grandmother and the lady as much as possible, as well as the daughter who is looking for death and life." Gan Peilin raised his eyebrows slightly, changing his usual suppleness, and his expression was obviously serious. "Does the sixth aunt understand Peilin's intentions?"
"You mean...... If I fall into the well again at this time, I will lose the face of Ganfu. When the lord returns, he will definitely not be happy. It's better to treat them as a family, and to save the face of Ganfu is to protect my own future. Liu Rumei almost rushed to Gan Jilu to persuade her to be a concubine, and she could also marry to Shengqing Palace.
Fortunately, Gan Peilin reminded her so. "It's still our Peilin who is the smartest, don't worry, I understand."
Gan Peilin just smiled lightly and didn't say anything more.
"I'm going to make sure the news doesn't come out." Liu Rumei smiled: "Shouldn't you also give the old man a letter to repair a book, so that he can know in his heart." ”
"My father likes Aunt Six the most, and there must be a reason." Gan Peilin said with a smile: "The sixth aunt can always know her father's thoughts. He is the most confidant of his father. ”
"You girl, you have honey on your mouth." Liu Rumei took her hand, closed it in her palm and patted it gently. "I'll get busy first."
"Send Aunt Six." Gan Peilin saluted her.
Zhu Yu also happened to come over at this time: "Miss, hurry up and go in and take a look." ”
Gan Peilin was nodding, and Mo Chuxue also walked in.
"I'll go in with my sister to see the second sister." She hadn't shown up for a long time, and the rash on her face had long since healed.
Bamboo was silent. Gan Peilin naturally nodded.
The two men went into the inner chamber together.
The moment Gan Jilu saw Gan Peilin, she struggled out of Mo Yanqing's arms, and looked at Gan Peilin with tears on her face: "Sister, Your Highness likes to talk to you the most, and you are familiar with Princess Qingning, you tell me, when did Your Highness start liking the princess?" Did you already know His Highness's decision? You've been hiding it from me, haven't you? ”
Her voice revealed the sadness in her heart, not so much a question, but a plea for Gan Peilin, wanting to know the truth.
is so weak and lovely, anyone who sees it will feel distressed. Gan Peilin also really felt sorry for this sister before. It's a pity that after experiencing such life, death and pain, her heart is as hard as iron.
"Second sister, you must be sad and confused. The first time I saw Your Highness, it was because you were sick that Your Highness came to visit you. How could you be more familiar with Your Highness than you? Gan Peilin took a silk to wipe her tears. As soon as his hand reached over, he was pushed away by Mo Yanqing.
"What about Princess Qingning?" Gan Jilu choked up and asked, "Sister, doesn't you see that the princess also has thoughts about Her Highness?" The first time the princess and Her Highness met, was it on the long street, and His Highness saved her? ”
"It's in the palace." Gan Peilin said gently: "On the day the princess asked the emperor for peace, Her Royal Highness had already seen her. So when they met on the long street, the reason why His Royal Highness helped was because he recognized Princess Qingning. ”
"I see." Gan Jilu's tears kept flowing down her cheeks: "People are happy with each other, but I can only be ruthless." ”
Mrs. Gan saw her so miserable and sad, and she couldn't bear it in her heart. "Stop talking nonsense. There are so many good men in the imperial city. Our dew is like a flower and jade, and our talent is wonderful, how can we not find Ruyi Langjun. ”
"yes." Mo Yanqing nodded again and again: "My daughter, you must have good looks, you must have a temperament, you must be gentle and considerate, you are knowledgeable, and your mother will definitely find you the best husband." ”
Gan Jilu got into her arms, whining and crying. "Mother, how can I have a face to see people in the future? Inside and outside this imperial city, how many people treat me as a laughing stock, I don't want to live......"
"Nonsense." Mrs. Gan was distressed and angry: "King Shengqing has never come to the door to propose marriage, so there is no excuse to regret the marriage." Even if he once came to visit you who were sick, it was only because he was sympathetic to the Great Sima Mansion and was fighting abroad, and Corporal Lixian would do it. As for those who dare to chew the root of their tongue behind their backs, I Ganfu will definitely not let go. When your father returns triumphantly and goes to the next city for the imperial court, who will mention these things without opening his eyes. You just have to rest assured and live boldly, how high can the chin of Ganfu's daughter be raised, and you don't need your grandmother to teach you at this time. ”
"Grandmother......" Gan Jilu cried and threw herself into her arms: "You feel sorry for Jilu the most, only you and your mother feel sorry for Jilu......"
"No, it won't." Mrs. Gan gently stroked her back: "You are so gentle and kind, how can you not be likable." Well, cry carefully for bad eyes. ”
Mo Yanqing wiped her tears, and the tenderness in her eyes disappeared the moment she stared at Gan Peilin. This cheap girl must not be kept. Those people were useless before, and they didn't ask for her life outside the Shengqing Palace. You'll have to think again.
Mrs. Gan persuaded her for a while before leaving Linxing Tower.
Gan Peilin naturally left with him.
"Peilin." Just when they were about to separate, Mrs. Gan suddenly asked, "What if this matter rests on you?" ”
Gan Peilin was stunned, and then lowered his head: "It's inevitable to be sad and sad." Pei Lin thought to herself, probably like the second sister. ”
"Not necessarily." Mrs. Gan said thoughtfully: "You will never hang a beam." Your temperament looks soft, but it is actually fierce. ”
didn't say anything, Gan Peilin didn't expect that her grandmother still knew her very well. The cantilever beam will definitely not, but it will never let the person who failed her have a good end.
"Let's go." Mrs. Gan turned around with Zhuyu's hand.
"Congratulations to Grandmother." Gan Peilin saluted and watched Mrs. Gan leave, only to find that only the crispy core was behind her. "Where's Rulan?"
"Miss, don't worry, Liulan will be fine." Crispy Core and Liulan discussed it, just to hear what other tricks Mo's mother and daughter had.
There are many people, and Mo Chuxue has not said anything. At this moment, she brought a cup of hot tea to the bedside: "Sister, don't feel uncomfortable, drink tea to moisten your throat." ”
"Uncomfortable?" Gan Jilu smiled, and there was only coldness at the corner of her lips: "What do I have to feel uncomfortable with." She is the dignified princess of Shi Yeguo, and I am just a daughter. If I were the king of Shengqing, I would also choose the best. ”
Mo Chuxue looked at her with some puzzlement: "That sister is still ......"
"What do I do, I don't need to explain it to you, do I?" Gan Jilu raised her chin slightly, and the red mark on her neck looked particularly eye-catching.
"That's not what my sister meant." Mo Chuxue's eyes were red: "I'm just worried about you." ”
"yes." Mo Yanqing couldn't hide her sadness: "Chu Xue is also worried about you." Auntie, do you know how dangerous it is for you to do this, in case the maid finds out too late......"
"Mother." Gan Jilu held her hand, and her smile became fresh and bright: "I won't let myself have trouble." No in case. And have you noticed that grandmother is more and more partial to Gan Peilin now, if we don't do something again, and when she coaxes her grandmother, it will be too late. Anyway, this time, my daughter didn't know how to explain to the whole house, and it was just right to play this bitter trick. ”
"That's a good point...... You should always tell your mother. Mo Yanqing said worriedly: "But it's good if you can think about it." Mother will try her best to choose a husband for you, who must be better than King Shengqing, and will never let you suffer such grievances again. ”
"Right now, a husband who is better than King Shengqing, unless it is the high-ranking Ninety-Five." Gan Jilu coldly hooked the corners of her lips: "Mother, my daughter originally just wanted to be a princess, but now, my daughter wants to be a queen." I'll leave it up to you to plan for your daughter. ”
Hearing her say this, Mo Yanqing's face finally showed a smile: "Okay, good, Jilu, don't worry, your mother will definitely help you achieve your wish." When the time comes, you will try to pull the first snow again, and you two will walk side by side, and our Mo family will have hope. Ganfu can stand tall. Mothers can also regain real power! ”
A handful of the first snow, Gan Jilu never thought about it. This silent maid with a bad stomach is only worthy of being her attendant. Gan Jilurao smiled and nodded: "Mother don't worry, my daughter will not disappoint you." ”
Mo Chuxue went out of the inner room and saw a girl sneaking out.
"What are you doing there?" Wanfeng happened to see her too, and couldn't help shouting.
"Wanfeng." Mo Chuxue called her over: "Leave her alone, you hurry up and bring a bowl of hot porridge, the second sister is so hungry that her stomach hurts." ”
"Okay, I'll go." Wanfeng still thought that the girl was Mo Chuxue's person, and she didn't care.
After she left, Mo Chuxue slightly hooked her lips. That maid is the new Liulan by Gan Peilin's side. Since she wants to know the tricks of Mo's mother and daughter, let her know about it.
A person who has no strength, if he wants to get what he wants, he has to learn to borrow strength.
At this time, she went out, and Mo Chuxue glanced at the maid waiting at the door: "Sister needs to recuperate, we should go back." ”
