Chapter 6: The First Battle

"Mother, you're back."

"It's been a long time, we miss you and the fourth sister very much."

"Is the fourth sister better?"

Miao Lan carefully tied the tie in front of Gu Mingxiu's body, straightened her makeup, and looked at her outfit left and right, looking more nervous than her.

Gu Mingxiu was amused in her heart, and was about to speak, when a soft female voice sounded in her ears.

It was as if a cold wind swept through my heart, putting the whole person in the depths of winter. Gu Mingxiu asked Miaolan to carefully comb her sideburns, a chill appeared under her eyes little by little, her face was already snow-white, and her lips were slightly white, which was inevitably more compelling, and anyone who saw it couldn't help but feel a little afraid.

She never forgot this voice until her death, and since she woke up, she has heard it again in her dreams at midnight.

Gu Changge.

When Mu Lan looked up, Gu Mingxiu's face was as usual, with a little gentleness. She looked to the side, as if looking out of the car through the curtains. The corners of her lips lifted slightly, smiled faintly, and said outward: "Second Sister Xie is worried, Siniang is all right." ”

Her voice was low and soft, with a little nonchalance, and she actually attracted the people around her who were full of Gu Chang's fans.

Everyone's eyes fell on the curtain that was lifted. I saw a little maid get out first, and then carefully helped out another person.

She stepped out of the shadows, and the sun fell on her face, gilding it with a sedate sheen. The long eyelashes droop slightly, and a faint shadow is cast under the eyelashes. The girl in the thin embroidered cloak was helped out and got out of the car slowly, with graceful and natural movements.

Gu Mingxiu raised his eyes and looked at Gu Changge not far away with smiling eyes.

It is the position of the queen who closes in the morning and abandons at night. She was tied to the top of the cliff, embarrassed, and her sister-in-law's pink dress came lightly.

It was Gu Changge who asked her gently: "Fourth sister, do you have anything else to say?" ”

The petite girl tilted her head, raised her steps and slowly walked towards Gu Changge.

It was Gu Changge's gentle posture, word by word: "Fourth sister, the back position does not belong to you." We let you enjoy the phoenix life, and now you should return it to your sister. ”

Gu Mingxiu curled his lips, his eyes lit up with starlight, and he seemed to be very happy to see Gu Changge. And Gu Changge's gentle and cruel face replayed in her mind, enlarged in her eyes.

"Fourth sister, don't be dissatisfied." Gu Changge smiled, as if he was blaming his little sister, "We are willing to let you sit in that position and we will already look at the face of the fifth sister, speaking of the fifth sister, the fourth sister should want to see her very much, I blame me for being confused, it should be for you to meet, if it weren't for the help of the fifth sister, we might not be able to look at the fourth sister like this today....look at the fourth sister." ”

Gu Mingxiu walked up to Gu Changge step by step and raised his head.

Standing at An Li's side, the girl's gentle eyes slowly swept over the others at the door of the mansion, and then looked at Gu Changge. She leaned slightly, her casual gaze swept over the few people behind her, her long hair was left behind, her aqua blue streak dotted her bun, and under the lilac cloak was a snow-white tunic with wide sleeves.

Gu Changge is as beautiful as a flower, and his gestures are moving. However, Gu Mingxiu was different from her, because she was slightly sickly, her complexion was a little whiter, but she didn't look sick, but her eyes were dark and bright. The delicate-looking girl is more like a character who came out of the painting, with an outstanding temperament but has not been damaged by half a point, which is completely more moving than the pampered Gu Changge in Beijing.

She stood in front of Gu Changge, and the circle of fluff on the edge of the fox velvet cloak lined the girl's eyes as smooth as jade, and the water was moving.

Everyone originally thought that Shen Qingqing had always been at odds with Gu Changge, so they lifted the Gu family's sister-in-law, Gu Mingxiu. In the past few days, there have been more rumors in the city than praise. Now gathered at the gate of the Gu Mansion, if it is not true to say that it is to see Miss Gu Jiayan, it is true to come to see Gu Changge.

Now that the two are standing together, Gu Changge is soft and gentle, still attracting everyone's attention, but just one glance, her eyes are attracted by the ethereal and fresh girl in front of her, and people can't bear to look away.

Thinking about it carefully, Miss Shen's words may not be false. Originally, Gu Changge was known as a must in Yangzhou, but her chess skills fell to Shen Qingqing's advantage and most people knew about it. The identity of Miss Yan in front of her is already higher than Gu Changge, and her every move is not vulgar, but her posture is natural.

Thinking like this, everyone's eyes looking at Gu Mingxiu became even more excited.

He had long noticed that the eyes of the people around him had changed, and Dong Qing was slightly surprised. At a young age, Gu Changge looked at the calm posture of the girl in front of him at this moment, and he could no longer show a sincere smile, but smiled very reluctantly: "Fourth sister, you are doing well, I will rest assured." ”

Gu Mingxiu tilted her head slightly, her eyes widened, revealing an innocent, beautiful and incomprehensible smile: "Second sister, I'm back." ”

Her smile was too joyful, but there was a bit of sharpness in her eyes. Seeing Gu Mingxiu stretching out his hand to shake his hand, Gu Changge subconsciously looked up, touched a sharp and indifferent chill under her eyes, his face changed instantly, and he unconsciously took a step back and avoided her hand. When she looked closely, she saw that the eyes were gentle and gentle, and she didn't care about it.

Gu Changge's retreat was too obvious, and everyone's eyes were a little strange. Dong Qing's face was nervous, An Li frowned, and the eyes of several maids were also a little weird. Only Gu Mingxiu was still standing in place, her hands were withdrawn in front of her, and she looked at her with some dazed and aggrieved eyes: "Second sister....aren't you happy to see Siniang go home?" ”

In the previous life, she didn't like Gu Changge when she entered the house, and she brushed off the "goodwill" of this talented woman in public many times, and people in Beijing rumored that she was rude and willful, and bullied her sister as a concubine. After An Li's death, Dong Qing became his wife, and Gu Changge became his daughter-in-law, but he still showed tenderness to her, and she still rejected her indifferently.

At that time, Gu Changge's eyes were misty, and he looked like he had been wronged and had to endure it, and even looked at her a little helplessly, and asked her cautiously: "Fourth sister... Don't you want to see me? ”

If Gu Mansion Changge is that kind fairy, she is the wicked person from hell.

Now in your next life, you will inevitably tear off your fairy skin, and everyone will see the vicious evil ghost under your skin.

sneered slightly in his heart, but the grievances on his face were deeper, with a little helplessness and uneasiness. At this moment, Gu Mingxiu leaned on Miao Lan, a small face with a big palm hung down gently, and said softly: "Did Siniang do something wrong?" Does the second sister not like Siniang going home? ”

She seemed to be unintentional, and the people around her had different thoughts when they heard it. Looking at Gu Changge's eyes, there were some other meanings, and the hand in Gu Changge's sleeve couldn't help but clench the handkerchief slightly.

She steadied herself, then smiled, stepped forward and replied softly, "How so? Fourth sister, you are weak, I have been standing outside for a long time, my hands are a little cold, I am afraid that I will bring cold air to you. She looked at Gu Mingxiu gently, a little reproachful, "Look at what you said?" How could I not be happy to see you come home and not like you coming back? The fourth sister and her mother have been gone for eleven years, and we have not been home for a single day, and we are very worried, but now we are very happy to see that you are well. ”

She said this euphemistically, accusing Gu Mingxiu's mother and daughter of not taking Gu Mansion to heart, and they have not returned to the mansion for eleven years after leaving. Thinking about it deeply, it seems that she is accusing the two of her of being cold, ignoring the Gu family for eleven years, and never thinking about the Gu family.

Dong Qing smiled on his face, and it was slightly deeper at the moment. An Li didn't have the crooked minds of these backyard people, but he couldn't hear the meaning of Gu Changge's words. Gu Mingxiu didn't move, just laughed: "So that's the case." It's just that I'm not in good health, and I'm sick again and again, and when I'm sick, only my mother has been with me, and I don't dare to go anywhere. There are only monks and a few maids in the courtyard, and no one plays with me on weekdays, and sometimes my mother often lies to me that you will come to see me, second sister. ”

As soon as the words came out, Gu Mingxiu smiled slightly, looking at the faces of the two people in front of him and couldn't help but stiffen a little.

Gu Mingxiu's weak body was something that Yangzhou knew in the early years, and it was understandable that An Li's beloved daughter was anxious, and he was worried that he would not be able to return to the house. However, the people in the Gu Mansion have nothing else to do, especially Gu Changge, it doesn't hurt if she can't go out when she is younger, but in the past eleven years, she has often participated in literary meetings, or played with young ladies, and she has never been to see Gu Mingxiu, and at this moment she is talking here about worrying about missing and so on....Gu Changge's words made some people have to look at her again.

Seeing this, Dong Qing hurriedly stepped forward to bless his body, and went up to help An Li with a smile: "Look at you, I know that your sisters must have a lot to say after not seeing each other for a long time, but your fourth sister is weak, what does it look like to stand here and talk?" Hurry inside, beware of your sister freezing. ”

Her posture was dignified and generous, and she completely regarded herself as a housemother, but when she looked closely, Dong Qing helped An Li, with a little gentleness and obedience on her face, as if she was really worried about Gu Mingxiu.

Gu Changge nodded on his knees and replied obediently: "Yes." ”

Dong Qing held An Li's arm, very intimate. Although An Li didn't like her like this, he couldn't bear to save her face in public, but he didn't resist. They walked inside, and Dong Qing said with a smile: "Madame has been gone for many years, and the layout of the house has also changed, so I will accompany Madame to walk around so as not to go the wrong way." ”

Gu Mansion was originally arranged by An Li, originally according to Gu Qingyuan's preferences, this was originally her home, but now it has been changed by someone, and she has been told not to get lost.

An Xuan was a little miserable, but he could only smile bitterly on his face, changed the topic and asked, "Why didn't I see Xiao Wu?" ”

"Wu Niang is still young, and she runs around with Liu Niang." Dong Qing replied with a smile, "Maybe these two little girls are going to play again, don't worry, Madame, I'll send someone to find Wu Niang in a whileβ€”β€”"

Before Dong Qing finished speaking, he heard a scream.

"Miss Five is overboard!"
