Chapter 107: Uncle Returns to Beijing

Mama Zhang and Mama Li were slapped in the face by their strength, their faces were blue and white for a while at this time, they had the heart to deny it, but the words they just left were still in their ears, so many pairs of ears listened, if she dared to regret losing face, she said that she would not be disposed of after returning to the palace, but if she went back so gloomy, the queen would not be able to spare them.

They were in a dilemma, and finally came up with a way to delay, "Miss Gu's rules are naturally good, and the slaves and maids can't find fault at this time." It's just that the rules are not pretentious, and daily words and deeds must also be implemented, and the slaves and maids have to spend some time observing before they can conclude that Miss Gu has really learned. ”

If you weren't proficient in the rules, how could you easily win them? This is clearly a deliberate difficulty. At this time, the people and Gu Qingyi had the same hatred, and they all looked at them angrily, and none of them could guarantee that they would abide by the rules at all times and not make mistakes, let alone Miss Master.

Mrs. Zhou immediately began to retort, "This is not good, learning the rules is to know the rules, but it is not to become a wooden stake that only knows the rules." Our family Yi'er is a golden and noble daughter, and she is not a servant who serves people, where do you need to live by the rules all the time. Mammies are going too far. ”

In the final analysis, the current etiquette is not harsh, men and women travel together is not uncommon, men and women are not very strict, but the royal is the most noble and the most exquisite etiquette in the world, and the rules are just learned to walk in the palace to show respect, how can there be a serious master who lives with the rules.

Mama Zhang and Mama Li were sarcastically ridiculed like this, their faces immediately couldn't hold back, and they said stiffly, "Madam, the royal family pays attention to the rules, and there must be no mistakes in every word and deed, and the slaves and maids ask for this for the sake of the young lady." ”

Mrs. Zhou sneered, not appreciating it at all. Gu Qingyi looked moved, worried that her stepmother and daughter-in-law had made a mistake, so she hurriedly held her hand and motioned her to extinguish the fire, before turning to the two grandmothers and asking, "Dare to ask the two grandmothers, how long is the time you are talking about." ”

Mama Zhang glanced at Mama Li, knowing that it was not good to go too far, and estimated the time, "From today until the young lady's wedding, as long as the young lady does not make a mistake in this small half a month, the slave and maid will return to the palace to return to the queen." ”

"Okay, I promise you."

Gu Qingyi responded and said to Mrs. Zhou, "A-Niang, let's arrange for the two grandmothers to rest today, and let them observe tomorrow." ”

Although Mrs. Zhou did not agree, she still followed Gu Qingyi's proposal, and asked Mama Rong to arrange someone with a cold face, Mama Zhang and Mama Li had also heard that Mrs. Zhou was not easy to mess with, and they were worried that something would go wrong, even if they thought that they would be able to take up their posts today, they didn't dare to say anything, and obediently followed Mama Rong.

When the two of them left, Mrs. Zhou sighed, "Yi'er, why are you bothering, can't you just let A-Niang invite people away?" ”

If it weren't for Gu Qingyi, with her temperament, she wouldn't have to drive people out of the house, and she didn't care if the queen would order Shen Yi. She has been observing etiquette for most of her life, and has always been strict with her own people, and in the end she has left nothing, and she has gradually awakened to the fact that people live in this life, and their identity and reputation are not brought to death, so that they will not suffer from those sins.

Gu Qingyi smiled bitterly, her stepmother can not care, but she can't be unfilial to her children, so that she will not be able to protect her old age and be disrespectful, and she will be arrogant and disrespectful, and she can persist in about half a month, after all, she was trained by her grandmother so much in her previous life.

She didn't know what to say, but smiled and comforted, "A-Niang, don't worry, Xiao Banyue's kung fu will pass in the blink of an eye, just put up with them for the time being." Besides, if they dare to be presumptuous, aren't you still Ah Niang, and you will have to call the shots for your daughter when the time comes. ”

Mrs. Zhou's face paleed a little pale, and she nodded her forehead and said angrily, "As long as you have the right idea, A-Niang can't help you." You said so, can A-Niang still ignore you? ”

Gu Qingyi smiled and sprinkled coquettishly, this is considered to be the past.

From the next day, Mama Zhang and Mama Li followed Gu Qingyi inch by the side, eager to see her thoroughly inside and out. However, Gu Qingyi came over with strong winds and waves, and he didn't feel anything about their shadowy gaze, and the days were the same as before. However, there are two more outsiders around, and there are some inconveniences, the daily fetal pills can no longer be drunk blatantly, after all, the grandmothers in the palace are all human spirits, and they can tell what kind of medicine they are when they smell it, so every time it is time to drink the medicine, Gu Qingyi always avoids the courtyard of the stepmother, and they dare not have any presumptuousness when they are left and right at the stepmother.

The days gradually passed, not only Minghui Academy, but even the descendants of Wufutang were accustomed to the existence of these two grandmothers, although they respected them on the surface, but they were still very dissatisfied in their hearts, not only did they fail to live like a fish in water with the power of the queen's mother, but they were thankful for the dire situation.

What makes them most anxious is that after a while, Gu Qingyi has not made a single mistake, if it is not to abide by the rules to the bones, it is this woman's temperament to the point of incredible tenacity, according to their recent observations, it is clearly the latter. However, this is precisely what the queen does not want to see.

It's just that the two grandmothers have nothing to do but be anxious, after all, the Hou Mansion can't call the shots with them, dozens of pairs of eyes are staring, and they can't make a move at all, let alone spread the news to the outside world.

Gu Qingyi saw the anxiety and urgency of Zhang and Li in her eyes, smiled in her heart, and the depression in her heart instantly dissipated, and she was satisfied when she saw that they were unhappy.

But soon she left the two grandmothers behind, because her cousin's uncle's family was going back to Beijing soon.

A few days ago, she received a letter from the Li family, her grandfather was not suitable for a long journey because of his age, and her eldest uncle Li Shihua could not leave when he was in office, and only his second uncle Li Shirong and his aunt Su Shi, who were idle, came back. Even so, Gu Qingyi was also nervous, and hurriedly asked his subordinates to clean up the Li family's house in Beijing, so after more than ten days, finally on the first day of the sixth lunar month, the second uncle and second aunt finally arrived in the capital.

Gu Qingyi was originally going to go outside the city to greet her, but she was rejected by her second uncle, after all, she only had five days left to get married, and it was not appropriate for her to show her face again, plus they had traveled a long distance and were dusty, so they always needed to freshen up.

In this way, on the second day of the sixth month, Gu Qingyi did not meet his second uncle until the second day of the first month of June.

Li Shirong and the Su family came to the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion early, first to meet the Dingyuan Marquis Zhou Yan and Mrs. Zhou, because of Gu Qingyi, the Li family and the Hou Mansion are also considered to be close to each other, and the two families have a relationship, which can be regarded as a very happy conversation.

However, the time of the conversation was not long, and the Marquis of Dingyuan and Mrs. Zhou understood that their nephew had not seen each other for many years, so they quickly ended the conversation and asked them to go to Minghui Courtyard to see Gu Qingyi. Gu Qingyi got up early in the morning today, and since the second uncle and second aunt arrived at the mansion, she was restless, and kept rehearsing in her mind how to meet later, but when Han Dong reported that the second uncle and the second uncle and grandmother were coming, they instantly turned blank.

When she first entered her cousin's body, she was not as nervous as she is today when she saw her uncle.

When she saw their bright eyes that were almost green, Gu Qingyi completely calmed down, walked out calmly to greet her, and blessed her body from afar, "Yi'er has seen the second uncle, the second aunt." ”

Li Shirong and Su hurriedly avoided it, Gu Qingyi's identity is different now, she is the princess of Qin, even if they are elders, they can't stand her courtesy.

"Yi'er, hurry up, hurry up, don't be polite."

Li Shirong is already a young man who is not confused, but his appearance is clear, his bearing is gentle, and he has a peaceful temperament that is close to him. The same is true of the Su family, she is from a noble background, with an elegant bookish atmosphere, and she stands with her second uncle and has the same temperament, and she is very husband and wife.

With a smile on his face, Su Shi stepped forward to take Gu Qingyi's hand, and said with emotion, "Unknowingly, we haven't seen each other for three years. Yi'er saw that she had lost a lot, how have you been doing all these years? ”

The second uncle also looked at it with concern, Gu Qingyi was both sad and sad, the cousin they cared about was no longer there, but was forcibly occupied by her...... Every time she thought of this, she felt so guilty that she even had no face to face her cousin's loved ones.

Under their unadulterated concern, she always felt that she was a thief with no hidden secret, despicable and embarrassed.

"Uncle Lao and aunt are worried, Yi'er is all right." She almost couldn't hold back the emotions on her face, for fear that they would continue to ask, so she quickly changed the topic, "I just don't know how are they uncle?" The letter said that my grandfather was sick, but what was wrong with his body? ”

Li Shirong and Su Shi didn't notice that Gu Qingyi was wrong, and she quickly changed the topic and continued, "Yi'er don't worry, your grandfather's body is quite tough." Recently, there were too many visitors to the house, and my father didn't want to publicize it, so he excused himself from illness. ”

The Li family has been a scholarly heirloom for generations, and the people who come and go are the same noble families. Even if the uncle is the current secretary of the Ministry of Rites, but because of the early death of the Li family and Gu Kangwen's remarriage, the Li family has not been touched much, but Gu Qingyi was recognized as a righteous daughter by the Marquis of Dingyuan, and was given to marry the queen of Qin. The old man was annoyed, and he didn't want to provoke criticism for his granddaughter, so he excused himself from illness.

After listening to the second uncle's explanation, Gu Qingyi suddenly felt guilty, "I am the one who caused you trouble." ”

"You kid, this rich and noble family, others can't ask for it, how can you be considered to be causing trouble?"

glanced at her husband and saw that he was both distressed and relieved, and Su couldn't help but sigh that her cousin had not been happy all these years, otherwise she would not have developed such a cautious temperament.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly comforted, "Yi'er, don't worry, thanks to you, your uncle will be able to move after his term of office is over, you only need to make a effort, and it is not difficult to return to Beijing." When the time comes, we will all be in the capital, and we can also take care of it. You child, we are afraid that you will report good news and not bad news in the letter, and we will always be worried. ”

Gu Qingyi's heart was relieved at this time, it was originally a stolen family affection, she was inevitably worried in her heart, for fear that she would cause trouble for the Li family, but it was a little comforting to be able to help them

Immediately, she smiled and said, "It's better, and I can have more relatives to walk around in the future." ”。
