Chapter 38 Don't be afraid
Qin Niang looked at Gu Zhixian aggrievedly, and Gu Zhixian looked away very coincidentally. Qin Niang was annoyed, pursed her lips stubbornly and aggrievedly, and suddenly stepped forward and took Brother Shang from Mother Lin's hands.
Gu Zhixian couldn't pretend to turn a blind eye anymore, and reminded loudly: "You have a bad body, don't hug it, be careful of tired yourself." β
He spoke up and did "bastard" things, but made the old man extremely comfortable, and the old man's dirty words blurted out: "Glance at the calf thing!" I haven't seen you for four or five years, so come to see you and your concubine? Is it possible to read a dog's belly? What do you want to do, go back to the house after dark and turn off the lights, just now? β
Gu Zhixian retreated behind the old man in embarrassment, and Qin Niang was so ashamed that she cried.
Gu Yao was slightly stunned, this qin girl doesn't seem to be smart! If nothing else, if you are Aunt Chen and Uncle Chen, you will definitely not make an awkward fuss with your husband in public, put on a face, and will not cry in front of the head of the family - this is a taboo for the elderly!
Wait a minute! Taboo!
When Gu Yao reacted, it was too late, Gu Zhixian had already splashed the tea, and the tea bowls with no dead corpses were scattered at his feet, and the old man's angry scolding followed: "Lao Tzu is not dead yet, why are you crying!" Do you want to cry to death and seize your family's wealth? β
Gu Zhixian covered his chest and explained: "Dad is angry, Qin Niang has no such intention." β
I'm still talking for Qin Niang at this time!
Gu Yao glanced at Gu Zhixian deeply, stepped forward, leaned over, and said while picking up the debris: "Grandfather, if there is one less tea bowl, a complete set will not be able to entertain guests." Even if you can entertain guests, the tea bowl will cost money. The tea bowl doesn't have much money, and the broken tea bowl will also scratch people's hands. β
As she spoke, she handed her broken shallow finger to Old Man Gu.
"Why was it so careless?"
"You shouldn't pick it up empty-handed."
Old man Gu and Gu Zhixian spoke at the same time, Gu Zhixian's blame implied concern, Old Man Gu reasoned with reprimands, he couldn't say which was better, but Gu Yao preferred Gu Zhixian's concern.
She looked at the old man and said, "The granddaughter knows that it shouldn't be, and it's not careless, but it is deliberate." β
After speaking, she walked to Qin Niang's side and made a half salute, Qin Niang was not yet immersed in the shock of the old man's move, and did not move, Gu Yao reminded her: "Aunt should return my full salute." He turned around and told Gu Zhixian, "Don't blame Daddy, Baoding Houfu is this rule." β
Qin Niang was completely stunned.
It's only been a while, and there is no housekeeping right, the old man asked the old lady to beat, and he was scolded, and he was taught the rules by a girl...... She doesn't know Baoding Houfu, but she knows the power of Wu'an Houfu, which is the existence that the prince respects!
Qin Niang shook her body, hurriedly wiped her tears, and really followed Gu Yao's instructions and performed the full salute. Gu Yao turned sideways slightly, avoiding the past, unconventional, Gu Zhixian was relieved, and the old man also accepted his anger.
When Qin Niang got up, Gu Yao smiled again: "Auntie, give me my brother." Auntie, rest assured, I have hugged all the children who are younger than this. β
Mother Lin hurriedly said: "It's hard to travel, how can you make the girl suffer?" Auntie, let's give my brother to the slave. β
A word reminded Gu Zhixian, and Gu Zhixian hurriedly said: "Dad, eat first, okay?" β
The old man still has a group of teenagers to take care of, so he naturally said well, and then added: "Since the child is not strong, send it back to the back office." Don't call him over while I'm here. β
Gu Zhixian hurriedly asked Qin Niang and Lin's mother to go back to the county office, lifted the hem, and went to the back to call for food in person.
Qin Niang's eyes turned red again, and she muttered angrily: "Mother Lin, let's go!" β
was slapped in the face by the second son's concubine, the old man's face was as black as a pot helmet, Gu Yao hurriedly said: "Grandpa, this Aunt Qin is so stupid, what can she do when she comes to our house?" β
Old Man Gu is rough, but his temperament is not rough, so he reacted immediately and instructed Gu Yao: "How can you only look at people's faces?" You're going to live with her in the back office, be careful, don't follow this woman's way!" β
Gu Yao successfully diverted the old man's gaze and nodded busily.
After dinner, the old man went to settle everyone, and Gu Yao followed Gu Zhixian back to the county government across the alley.
"Brother Sheng!"
The man with the broken arm in the corner gate, who is it not Zhang Sheng? Compared with a year ago, Zhang Sheng's complexion is much better, and he is also a lot more cheerful. Seeing Gu Yao, he smiled heartily and said, "The girl can't call the little one that." Aunt Pan has been looking forward to it for more than half a month, and the girl is finally here. β
Because he only saw Gu Yao, Zhang Sheng couldn't stop looking into the alley, but he didn't see anything.
Gu Yao understood and said, "Brother Quan didn't follow." My grandfather said that he would retire in two years, and at that time, he would bring Brother Quan and Yu Niang to Wanping. β
Zhang Sheng looked disappointed, then cheered up, welcomed Gu Yao's father and daughter into the door, and said, "The girl is tired, right?" Let's go home and rest. β
The Wanping County Office is very large, but the family home is very small, and there are two entrances. Fortunately, there is no need to entertain guests, the first person enters the house, the second person enters the space, and there is a podium next to the wall, which can be squeezed down.
In the main room, the father and daughter sat down, and Gu Yao said: "If Daddy thinks that his daughter's housekeeper is not suitable, when Grandpa returns to Liaodong, he will still call Aunt Qinββ"
Gu Zhixian stopped her and continued, and said to herself: "You just take care of it." β
Gu Yao only mentioned it because he hesitated first. Now that the two of them are still saying this, Gu Yao will no longer refuse.
The butler cannot be left without him. Gu's mother was originally the best candidate, but she favored Gu's mother. After thinking about it, Gu Yao asked Gu Zhixian: "Dad, where is Sister Hanxiang?" β
Han Xiang is the daughter of Gu's mother and Gu Steward, the son of the Gu family, who was ten years old five years ago, and now it is time to use it.
"Follow Qin Niang." After Gu Zhixian finished answering, he remembered that Gu Yao was only alone, so he asked, "Is there anyone around you?" β
Gu Yao bowed his head and explained: "The jade lady who followed me before was actually from my grandfather's house, so she didn't follow. Fengcheng also had two maids, both of whom were locals, and they didn't bring them back. The maidservant of the Hou Mansion, the daughter was even more embarrassed to bring it back. β
Gu Zhixian said: "In this case, ask Hanxiang to go to you, and then buy another maid and Qin Niang." β
At this point, Gu Yao completely affirmed that Qin Niang had a stunning figure, and she really didn't have any status in her father's heart, probably belonging to the big-chested and brainless type. Han Xiang quickly got the letter, directly rolled up the baggage, kowtowed to Gu Yao with tears, and opened her mouth to ask Gu Yao where her luggage was, and she wanted to pack things for Gu Yao.
The three main houses in the front yard are east and west, and the main house Gu Zhixian lives; In the east chamber, Aunt Qin lived in it with the blessing of her son; Gu Yao is a girl's family, so she was placed in the West Chamber.
Gu Yao didn't bring back much luggage, and she knew best which box put what. It was pointed out that the conductor Hanxiang was put somewhere, and there were not many things, but in a few hours, the two of them had already packed up the things.
Only then did Gu Yao ask Gu's mother carefully: "Why is Gu's mother gone?" β
Hanxiang's lips were thick and tight, and they were so heavy. If it weren't for Gu Yao's familiarity with her, she would have looked normal. Seeing her nervousness, Gu Yao had no reason to be soothing, because he said: "Gu's mother is not my nurse, but she is better than a nurse." My sister doesn't have to be separated from me, just say anything. β
To tell the truth, Hanxiang's heart was moved.
