Gu Qingshang also knew this rule, so he asked Gu Yao and Jiang: "Which door do you plan to enter from?" Or go to Gu's house with me first? ”

It's okay for Gu Yao to go to the Gu family, but what is the Jiang family's call to go to the Gu family? Jiang was stupid, and she knew that it was inappropriate, so she hurriedly said, "Then let's enter through the West Corner Gate." ”

After speaking, Jiang looked at Gu Yao with a blank eye, and Gu Yao responded as she wished: "Well, enter through the West Corner Gate." ”

Gu Qingshang looked at Gu Yao suspiciously. In the past, her sister was not so much easy to get along with, but she didn't care, especially between relatives, and the things she cared about were really pitiful. However, other than relatives, including Zheng Zhi, who was not a brother-in-law at that time, the Lu family, who has always wanted to be upside down, she never fakes her colors, she will not wronged herself, she is so willful.

However, her relatives in the Zheng family, Zheng Zhi and the children must be, the Jiang family can be, and the wife of the prince who raised Zheng Zhi is counted, but the second lady Zhang is nothing. In a few years, has his sister changed? Gu Qingshang didn't believe it very much, and made up his mind, and he would definitely follow up and take a look after a while.

Jian Quan saw that Gu Qingshang did not leave immediately, but followed in, without saying a word, and also followed.

Unlike Gu Qingshang's worries, he is also a child who grew up in the back house. Seeing that Mrs. Hou, a dignified Mrs. of the Jiang family, was forced to return home by her daughter-in-law who came out of the house when she went home, she felt the same way. It's like the grievances suffered by my mother when I was a child. He followed up because he wanted to work with Gu Qingshang to support Gu Yao.

The two brothers, with their own purposes, entered the Hou Mansion as a matter of course.

Jian Quan swept the Hou Mansion first, secretly envious. Jian Shangshu has an official mansion, but it is enough to live. The house is also very new, but it is not interesting. That feeling is like a poor man suddenly getting silver, buying a brocade robe to put on his body, but feeling uncomfortable-

This child is used to living in old houses, accustomed to hundred-year-old trees, and is really not interested in newly planted saplings.

Gu Qingshang didn't squint.

Although the Gu family's mansion is much smaller than the Hou Mansion, it also cost a lot of money at the beginning. Now, Gu Qingshang also has his own small courtyard. However, the child found it very boring. It's not as warm as living in a yard with my father, sister and aunt. Lacking warmth, he really doesn't like the big house.

Gu Qingshang walked while looking at the servants around him.

Gu Yao didn't give him a chance to take a good look, and explained to a few children as he walked: "There is a way to the outer courtyard, where your grandfather and uncle will meet guests. Go forward, go to the end, and there is our yard. Your grandmother lives at the back of the main courtyard, and your aunt and older siblings live in the eastern courtyard. ”

Thinking that they hadn't seen each other for a few years, Zheng Shizi's two sons had also moved to the front yard when it was time to study. Gu Yao turned her head sideways, wanting to confirm with the mother-in-law who led the way, but found that this mother-in-law was an old acquaintance, she was surprised: "Mother Zhou, why are you?"

Zhou's mother?

The Jiang family, who had been absent-minded, stopped when he heard the words and went to look at the servant woman who led the way. At this look, I found that the black and thin mother-in-law in front of me was Zhou's mother, the housekeeper mother when she lived in Shuntian Mansion.

"Why are you here?"

Hearing Jiang's question again, Zhou's mother immediately smiled and said, "The second lady asked the slave maid to pick up the person, and said that the old lady must have forgotten the slave and maid." When they saw her, the slave and maid would straighten their backs and reply to them, 'The second lady is wrong.' ”

The Gu family is still there, the Jiang family doesn't take this credit, and points to Gu Yao and says, "I'm old, and my memory is not as good as before, but your third lady has a good memory." ”

Gu Yao also found out that there was no need to mention such an unimportant matter. She only felt that the Jiang family in front of her, the Jiang family at the gate of the city, and the two people in Tieling were really like two people. When Gu Yao was puzzled, Brother Yu spoke.

"Mother, do you think that grandmother and sister are very similar?"

Qiqi directly gave Yu Ge'er a burst chestnut. Gu Yao asked Brother Yu very patiently: "Oh? Why? ”

Brother Yu said with great confidence: "When we were at Uncle Shen's place before, my sister was very sister-like, managing us and obediently reading and writing. But once I go home and return to my mother, my sister is very squeamish, this one doesn't work, that one doesn't work, it's not worry-free. ”

Qiqi was still discerning, but Gu Yao already understood what Yu Ge'er meant. Her mother-in-law is really such a person. Even if her ability is limited, she plays a qualified role of "Mrs. Hou" in front of outsiders. When he arrived in Tieling, in front of his relatives, he was unscrupulously stupid. Because, no matter how she tosses, Zheng Zhi and her will not actually hurt the Jiang family. Yu Niang has always said that she bullies the soft and fears the hard, which is proper.

However, bullying the soft and fearing the hard is a common trait of many people. This characteristic, the ugly way of saying it is, a more positive statement, can be hard when it is hard, and if it can't, it shrinks. But the most correct way to do it is to be hard when it should be hard, and when it should be soft, it must be soft.

Mother-in-law won't, I'm going to teach Qiqi myself, so let's teach it by the way.

Thinking of this, Gu Yao grimaced and said to Zhou's mother, who was hippie and smiling: "We know the rules and know that we can't enter through the main gate, so we entered through the West Corner Gate." I was wronged and didn't mention it, and said that I had come to the second door, my mother, the elder, returned home, and the sister-in-law was not at home, so what was the reason why the second sister-in-law didn't come to pick it up? ”

The second lady Zhang was in charge, Gu Yao only thought of this possibility, so he said it. Zhou's mother was originally a little weak-hearted, but when she pointed it out, she immediately panicked. And, seeing that Gu Yao, who was still amiable, suddenly became smart, Gu Qingshang breathed a sigh of relief. Xindao, this is his sister, dear, didn't run; Jian Quan straightened her back, as if she saw the scene when her mother questioned her second sister-in-law; Jiang glanced at it in a panic, and then pretended to be calm again, only saying a word, and tightly grasped Deng's mother's hand; Several children looked at Zhou's mother with pity, and in their impression, the person who made her mother angry must be unlucky.

Sure enough, Gu Yao instructed Yu Niang: "Mother has worked hard all the way, and she can't walk." I see that the scenery is good, what about you, you know where our yard is, go back first, ask Hanxiang to make some tea, get a few plates of snacks, we are waiting there. ”

Yu Niang left in response, Zhou's mother couldn't stop her, and when another mother-in-law on the second door wanted to stretch out her hand, Yu Niang said coldly: "What is my background, I don't know if I ask." Not afraid to lie on the kang for three months, although on. ”

The rest of the servants immediately made a mess, and Zhou's mother reminded Gu Yao: "Third lady, second lady is waiting to see you." ”

Gu Yao smiled sweetly and said, "See her?" Yes, wait for her to come and see her mother first. ”

After speaking, Gu Yao personally helped the Jiang family and walked to the stone table in the corner of the east wall. Spring is just dew, and the begonia flowers have not yet bloomed, but they have already smoked new leaves. The warm evening breeze is blowing, not to mention, it feels really good.

Mother Deng and Mother Wang, the two of them, took out the cushions that had just been put on them with their hands and feet, and waited for all the masters, including the Jiang family, to sit down. Jian Quan and Gu Qingshang were arranged to the stone table under the west wall. Yu Niang and Han Xiang moved quickly, and in addition to bringing all the things Gu Yao said, they also served a few bowls of bird's nest.

Han Xiang rushed to take care of a few children, and said quickly: "The young master girl has suffered, what do you want to eat in the future, just tell the slave maid!" ”

Gu Yao pretended to be annoyed: "You can't give out the money!"

"Mrs. Shizi is out."

Gu Yao immediately said: "Don't! I'll go out. ”

After speaking, Gu Yao realized that he had been fooled, and shouted that he wanted to hit Hanxiang's top ten boards. A group of people were so lively that they were embarrassed to remind them that there was a woman on the second door.

But he didn't want to think about it, he saw it all, could Gu Yao see it? Even if Gu Yao couldn't see it, on the other side of her, Jiang and Jian Quan looked like they wanted to speak and stopped, could she not see it?
