Chapter 69: Miss Gu
In Meng Xuan's matter, Gu Jin finally understood one thing. Her father is really good to her, aunt, but because her father loves herself, she prefers herself a little. Auntie, I prefer my younger brother. The mother is unreliable, and Gu Jin has to work hard by himself. I went to Meng's house alone, went to Meng's house with my father, tried them one by one, but I couldn't enter.
Gu Jin completely understood that on the ground in Liaodong, in front of the Meng family, her father was really nothing. Because of this cognition, Gu Jin avoided his mother and encouraged his father not to take over his grandfather's military position.
Knowing the father Mo Ruonu, Gu Jin grabbed the weakness of the eldest master, and only said: "Dad, think about it yourself, all these years, which one has not listened to your aunt?" Daddy really doesn't want to hear it, so he has to borrow his grandfather's mouth to be at ease. I can see that my father and I are far inferior to my younger brother in the eyes of my aunt. Grandpa told the old man, no one can control her aunt, she has silver in her hand, and she has a younger brother, how can she take care of her father? ”
The eldest man really told his daughter to move and persevered. A fool who doesn't use his brain, he didn't expect that his daughter was also using himself.
Let's say that after Gu Jin dropped his angry words, he soaked in front of the Meng family for the whole New Year, and he made progress with the silver. Until the second day of February, the Meng family feasted guests, the side doors of the gate were all opened, and there was an endless stream of guests, and Gu Jin finally seized an opportunity.
The little brother who guards the East Corner Gate has accepted the silver of a visitor!
Seeing this, Master Gu reluctantly scooped out two taels of silver, stepped forward and said, "Little brother will pass it on for us, and this silver is yours." ”
Gu Jin saw the porter's eyes fluttering, afraid that he would deceive, so he hurriedly added: "I can enter the courtyard, so I will give you five taels of silver." ”
If it is someone else, the porter can't earn this silver, and he prefers to be surnamed Gu. After the porter refused in disguise, he said to the father and daughter: "I will pass it on for you, I will give two taels, and if I can let this girl enter the second door, I will give five taels." ”
Although it hurt a little, the father and daughter nodded in unison. Not long after, the porter called Gu Jin to enter the door, and said that she could go directly to see the eldest lady. Before entering the second door, the porter stretched out his hand and asked Gu Jin for silver, but Gu Jin only couldn't see it, and followed the woman into the door.
Menzi didn't dare to make a noise, and his teeth chattered with anger.
Following the mother-in-law who led the way, Gu Jin couldn't help but look at the Meng Mansion. All blue brick and red tile houses, bluestone roads; It is clear that spring has not yet bloomed, and there are all kinds of unknown flowers blooming on both sides of the road, which are so beautiful; All kinds of servants are orderly, and the mother-in-law who leads the way is very good-looking when she walks.
Walking in such a courtyard, thinking of Meng Xuan's upright posture, handsome face, and Gu Jin's face, he turned red again.
Gu Jin, who is not young and rarely exercises, has been a little unsteady because he has been walking for too long, and the mother-in-law who led the way has to slow down. After walking for another stick of incense, when she reached a large courtyard, the mother-in-law stopped and said to the mother-in-law at the door: "Miss Gu is here, and Sister Lao is passing it on." ”
The woman looked at Gu Jin a few times and muttered, "Is this Miss Gu?" How do I look like it? ”
Gu Jin held her breath, thinking that she would not pass it on for herself, but the mother-in-law said again: "The eldest lady has ordered, if Miss Gu arrives, she doesn't need to pass it on, just lead it in." ”
Gu Jinden smiled, followed his mother-in-law into the door, and waited to meet the eldest lady who had a relationship. Gu Jin was about to bow with her, but the eldest lady saw that she was not Gu Yao, and she was already angry, and scolded the maid angrily: "Is it blind or not?" What kind of Gu girl is this? Check which porter is it, and get it for me. ”
Mrs. Meng is so faceless, Gu Jin is stunned, my surname is Gu, I am Miss Gu, what's wrong?
At this time, several young men came to Hula outside, and they asked the woman one after another.
"Sister-in-law, the fat girl is here?"
"Mother, Sister Yao is here?"
"Auntie, Sister Yao is here?"
The Meng family initially treated Gu Yao well, mostly because of Meng Shan. Later, each had its own reasons. The children loved the variety of food and gadgets she brought; The older children love to look at her adoring eyes, as well as sincere praise; The older ones like her sensible and well-behaved. I haven't seen her for two years, and everyone misses her.
Yesterday, everyone knew the news that the Gu family of Shuntian Mansion had entered the city. At this time, when he got the news of Gu Yaolai, he believed it, you pass me and I pass you, in the blink of an eye, several boys gathered together, Meng Hui not only came by himself, but also came with his youngest brother.
Mrs. Meng took the youngest son, glared at the eldest son, and said angrily: "It's just a fool who doesn't know the so-called, just the same surname as the girl, and the porter has the wrong word." ”
In front of Meng Xuan, Gu Jin, who was scolded as a "fool", immediately burst into tears, glanced at Meng Xuan sadly, and cried all the way out of Meng's house. When Meng Hui saw this, he elbowed Meng Xuan, and Meng Xuan glanced over.
Meng Hui didn't care at all, and said with a gossip on his face: "Little uncle, that woman has been looking at you all the time." ”
"Really?" Meng Xuan didn't care, because he said: "Although the Gu family's car and horse have entered the city, it is not necessarily a girl sitting in the car, let me go to the Gu family and ask." If the fat girl didn't come, it would save my sister-in-law from worrying. ”
Mrs. Meng was angry just now, and she didn't pay attention to what her son said, but after listening to her son's words, she felt as if there was really such a thing. As soon as he heard that Meng Xuan was going to Gu's house, he immediately stopped: "Don't go, Brother Hui, you can run." ”
Meng Hui: ......
Hard-headed, Meng Hui rode a horse to Gu's house, told Fang Cai about it, and finally said: "My mother is afraid of misunderstanding again, so she asked me to ask, is Sister Yao back?" ”
The old man held his breath, and after sending Meng Hui away, he immediately called the eldest master's family, and when he saw Gu Jin's red and swollen eyes, he knew that what Meng Hui said was true, and immediately opened his mouth and scolded: "A group of fools, have you gone to Meng's house?" ”
The old man was even more angry, and he said, "Didn't my father tell us to go?" We went on a trip, lost two taels of silver, and suffered a grievance in vain. ”
Meng Hui returned to the door of the house, and saw a young man with a broken arm at the door talking there, he wanted to go in like this, but the person said: "In Xia Zhang Sheng, it is the gatekeeper of Wanping Zhixian's family, and our girl wrote a letter and asked me to give it to Master Hou." ”
The girl from Wanping Zhixian - it stands to reason that it should be Gu Yao, but Meng Hui knew that Gu Zhixian was not only a girl Gu Yao, and he was afraid that someone would pretend to be someone else, so he said: "Give me the letter." ”
Menzi hurriedly saluted and stepped forward to pick up the horse. Zhang Sheng saw that he was the young master of the Meng family, so he handed the letter as he said. Meng Hui saw that the letter was not sealed, so he opened it directly, and after reading it, he quickly closed it, called Zhang Sheng to enter the door, asked someone to settle it, and turned around and told the doorman: "Don't tell anyone else that I have read the letter." ”
After finishing his work, Meng Hui took the letter to see Meng Shan, and after Meng Shan read it, someone would deal with the money. Meng Hui stared at his grandfather for a few days, and when he saw that his grandfather really asked someone to prepare silver and send it to Shuntian Mansion, he wrote a letter to Shuntian overnight to mock Zheng Zhi.
"I can't do anything trivial with a thousand taels of silver, and I asked my sister to come all the way to my grandfather to ask for silver, and look at you."
When he said this, Meng Hui, who was less than 100 taels, was not embarrassed at all.
