When someone came to the main courtyard, Gu Qingyi was eating.

Her meals are extracted from the big kitchen, and it stands to reason that the food is equivalent to Gu Wenyin, but the Zhang family is in power, and obviously does not want to see the eldest daughter, the kitchen cook watches the dishes, the ingredients, production and distribution, etc. are always careless, and the meals finally sent to the Yusheng Courtyard are only better than the next people.

Although after the marriage decree came down, the big kitchen saw the wind and flattered, Gu Qingyi's bad appetite couldn't be raised, although it didn't eat and vomit like before, but it didn't eat much, and she was full after a few bites of food, remembering Mama Zhou, and trying her best to let her eat more.

Just like today, Gu Qingyi suddenly wanted to eat hot and sour noodles, so she specially went to the big kitchen to ask the chef to make a bowl of hot and sour noodles, taking care of her body, she didn't dare to put too spicy, there are a lot of sour beans, Gu Qingyi had a big appetite, and she ate a large bowl of rice at once, and when she had to add another bowl of rice, someone came to the main courtyard.

"You want me to come over? Mother and stepmother are done? Have you ever eaten? ”

Gu Qingyi ordered a meal after Handong came back, and after hearing the rumor, her stepmother was still busy, could it be that she asked her to go to dinner now that she was busy?

The maid who passed the word turned red, unable to speak, Gu Qingyi sensed that something was wrong, and the second-class pressure spring Qiuyan, who had specially inquired for her before, stepped forward and whispered in her ear, "Girl, Mrs. Zhou just went back, and Mama Ming, who was beside Mrs., chased her all the way." ”

"Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Gu Qingyi's expression was abrupt, and suddenly a majestic momentum was born, Qiu Yan's heart trembled, and she hurriedly said, "The slave maid saw that the girl finally had an appetite, and she didn't want to disturb you, thinking that she would wait until you finished eating." ”

"That's it, don't do it again in the future."

Qiu Yan is loyal, Gu Qingyi doesn't want to be embarrassed anymore, Gao Na let it go, and Mama Zhou also praised Qiu Yan's approach very much in her heart, but she still has to bang and knock, if she makes a claim in the future, it will be bad if she mistakes the master's affairs.

Gu Qingyi was thinking, the stepmother left without saying hello, she must have been very angry, of course, it was also possible to make a gesture for outsiders to see, no matter which one it was, Zhang's difficulties could not be escaped.

Call her at this time, is it to be a lobbyist?

Gu Qingyi didn't know that she had guessed eight or nine, and while thinking about countermeasures, she asked the slaves and maids to wait for her to gargle and change her clothes, and after removing the sour and hot smell of her body, she went to the main courtyard with the impatient messenger.

As a result, Zhang hadn't finished lunch yet, so she went to the ear room to wait, which was a pie...... No wonder the trouble has reached the point of disrepute. After waiting for about half an hour, she finally saw Zhang, who was drinking tea after finishing her meal.

She was half-lying on the small kang outside the warm pavilion, lazily unable to lift her energy, and looked at her as soon as her eyelids lifted, "I called you over today because I want to discuss something with you, I hope you can firm up your position, don't insult the lintel of the Gu Mansion." ”

Zhang was also embarrassed to mention the lintel of the Gu Mansion?

Gu Qingyi's eyes flashed with sarcasm, "Mother, please speak." ”

Zhang took another sip of tea before slowly speaking, "I was unwell this morning, and I had no time to entertain Mrs. Zhou. Speaking of this, she seemed to be holding her breath in her heart, and after a pause, she gritted her teeth and said, "Although Mrs. Zhou loves her daughter, it is not good to spread it after all, you are the eldest daughter of Gu Mansion, and Gu Mansion is poked in the back, which also affects you." After all, this matter started because of you, and it is most suitable for you to persuade Mrs. Zhou to change her mind. ”

From Zhang's deliberately beautified statement, Gu Qingyi pieced together the truth about her stepmother's anger and left the house, and guessed with her that Zhang's was really difficult for her stepmother.

She doesn't look sick now, and she deliberately didn't see her stepmother in the morning, obviously because she was trying to make things difficult.

Originally, it had made her very guilty to trouble her stepmother to help, if she continued to turn against each other, go along with the Zhang family, and persuade her stepmother to come back and accept Zhang's nest anger, it would be okay if this kiss was not married.

Zhang had been waiting for Gu Qingyi to express her position, and when she saw her thinking about it, she thought she was weighing the pros and cons, and suddenly became a little impatient, "What is there to think about, if you don't agree, not only will the Gu Mansion be discredited, but even you have a reputation for becoming inflammatory, don't you understand?" ”

"What my mother said was very true." Gu Qingyi spoke slowly, and before Zhang's face showed joy, she then said, "It's just that my stepmother has always been upright, and I can't influence her decision, I'm afraid my mother will be disappointed." ”

Zhang's face instantly turned blue, slapped on the kang table, and said coldly, "Gu Qingyi! You have disobeyed your elders! ”

"Mother is serious, even if she gives Qingyi the courage to do so, she doesn't dare to disobey her elders." Gu Qingyi said panic in her mouth, but there was no panic on her face, but her face was calm and calm, "It's just that my daughter has something unclear, my stepmother loves me and is willing to give me a dowry, and she didn't refuse Gu Fu's dowry, won't my mother just add my due share when the time comes?" I don't know how this has anything to do with the reputation of the Gu Mansion. ”

Zhang's anger knotted, she made Mrs. Zhou angry in the morning, naturally thinking that she would retaliate, if she took the initiative to add makeup according to Gu Qingyi's words, it would be a good way. It's just that this way will only give Mrs. Zhou the reputation of loving and caring for her righteous daughter, and the Gu Mansion is safe, but her reputation can't be saved, so she is naturally unhappy.

Thinking of this, she immediately lowered her face, "In the future, you will marry into the Qin Palace, and the Gu Mansion is your mother's family that you rely on, if you don't help your mother's family tide over the difficulties now, how will you survive in the royal family and the Qin Palace?" You must know that a woman without a mother is nothing but rootless duckweed, and I am doing this for your good. ”

Zhang's bitter mouth was bitter, and his words were serious, Gu Qingyi just wanted to laugh when he heard it, "Mother's admonition Qingyi has written it down, it's just a dowry, Qingyi is just an unmarried boudoir girl, it's really not appropriate to put a beak, if the mother is really not sure of her idea, you can discuss it with your father after she goes down." ”

Zhang's face immediately turned green, and he fell down with his chest, "Unfilial girl!" I'm mad at me! ”

"Ma'am, ma'am, what's wrong with you?" The subordinates of the warm pavilion all came up together, took the medicine and slapped the chest, slapping the chest, looking busy and anxious, Mama Ming snorted and said angrily, "Miss, our lady was already seriously ill, and now you are dizzy again, what is your intention." ”

Obviously, the Zhang family deliberately pretended to faint because he was worried about being punished by Gu Kangwen, but now he is going to charge her with unfilial piety.

Gu Qingyi sneered, "I'm confused, is it possible that I'm angry because I don't want to interfere with the dowry?" If I can fulfill my filial piety, why should I give up this face? It's just that my mother is sick, and I can't bother, so I have to explain the reason to my father and let my father give me the power to take charge of the family. ”

There was a soft sound of the thin rope in her dress, and she got up to leave, but Zhang woke up by coincidence and shouted in a full breath, "Stop! ”

"It turns out that my mother woke up, you are so sick, why don't you have a doctor in the house?"

She knew that the Zhang family would never let her fan the flames in front of Gu Kangwen, even if it was impossible for her to get the power of the family, she was not willing to take a ten-thousandth of the risk.

Seeing the ridicule on her face clearly, Zhang almost bit her lip and bleed, "You don't have to worry about the dowry, go back to your Yusheng Courtyard to get married." ”

Gu Qingyi smiled lightly and said meaningfully, "Thank you mother for your understanding, you are seriously ill in bed now, don't worry about chores anymore, it is the right thing to live and recuperate, otherwise the illness will be worse, and the daughter will be at ease." ”

Zhang Shi trembled with anger, swallowed the word "roll" blurted out, and squeezed out a stiff smile, "You have a heart." ”

After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and stopped looking at her, Gu Qingyi didn't want to stay any longer, so he left the main courtyard after blessing the ceremony, thinking about his stepmother's plans all the way, and told Mama Xu, she couldn't tell how Mrs. Zhou planned until Qiu Yan reported, "Girl, Mama Rong next to Mrs. Zhou is here." ”

Gu Qingyi hurriedly got up to greet her, Mama Rong smiled and saluted her, Gu Qingyi avoided half of the salute, and after asking her about her intentions, there was a moment of surprise.

"My stepmother asked me to go to the Hou Mansion to live?"

Mama Rong nodded yes and said with a smile, "The girl is going to get married in a month, Mrs. is really reluctant, our Hou Ye will let Mrs. take you over to live for a while, the Hou Mansion is also your mother's home, there are two patients in the Gu Mansion, it is inconvenient to act, plus the wedding date is approaching, it will not be beautiful to get sick again, so I specially sent a slave to pick you up." ”

Gu Qingyi's heart moved, does her stepmother plan to come to Gu Mansion again?

She agrees in her heart, but she still has concerns, "My mother just asked me to be married in Yusheng Courtyard, I'm afraid I won't be allowed to go out to live." ”

When you go out, you must ask your parents, and they will definitely not agree to her behavior that amounts to "defection".

Mama Rong looked like she was in the chest, "Although the girl is relieved, the lady has taken it into account." The slave maid brought the handwritten letter of the Hou Ye, and then handed it over to Lord Gu in person, with the permission of Lord Gu, presumably Mrs. Gu would not stop her. ”

Gu Qingyi immediately understood, presumably using the morning's incident as a condition, now that the reputation of the Gu Mansion is ruined, it is already in danger, if there is another scandal, I am afraid there will be no place to turn over.

With Gu Kangwen's shrewdness, he will definitely not make the most correct choice.

Thinking of the appearance of his beloved uncle in the past, Gu Qingyi sighed, since this is the case, it is best to be out of sight.

It didn't take long for Gu Kangwen to come back on time, and as soon as he came back, he was called away by Zhang's family, Rong Mama was worried that Zhang's would distort the facts, and after learning the news, he immediately went to visit him with a handwritten letter, Gu Qingyi commanded the maids to start packing up their things, and just wait for Rong Mama to come back and then leave for Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion.
