Chapter 114: Breaking the Fortune
Thinking that he had lost the gem because of his carelessness, Jin Nian's heart jumped wildly, and he couldn't believe it, blame himself, and lose it...... I can't tell what mood it is.
After reacting for a while, she got up from her chair and ran to Mama Lin's room in a hurry, and Du Juan and Mama Lin hurriedly followed behind her.
There are more than a dozen mahogany boxes stacked next to Mama Lin's bed, some of them are for Jinnian's clothes, some are for quilts, and more are things prepared by Mrs. Xie, brocade cloth and medicinal materials occupy a few boxes, and some calligraphy and paintings and bits and pieces are packed in several boxes.
"Put them all down and go through them one by one!" Jin Nian said, taking the lead to move the box down.
Mama Lin stopped her and comforted: "Miss, don't worry, I can't tell which corner it will fall in...... Stand next to you, I'll put the box down. ”
Where did Jin Nian listen to persuasion, and waved his hand to urge Mama Lin to move faster.
The box was put down, and the master and servant looked through them one by one, and even the folded cloth and picture scrolls were unfolded one by one to check it, but no trace of the ruby was found.
The heart that was still holding a little hope gradually cooled, Jin Nian sat on the box, staring blankly at the reorganized box in front of her, wanting to cry without tears, this is a precious gem, which was specially left to her by her grandmother......
Du Juan saw that her eyes were red, and she stomped her feet and said, "I'll go and talk to Gu Gongzi, he must have a way!" As soon as he threw the words down, he was going to run out.
It's all this time, what else are you looking for Gu Yanyi! Jin Nian suddenly became a little angry, stretched out his hand to stop the cuckoo, and said coldly: "What are you going to do, I've been lost for nearly ten days, no matter how powerful he is, can he still conjure a gem?" Isn't there anything else you haven't lost? It's a ruined fortune and a disaster! ”
Things fell on the official road, in the past ten days, there are a lot of travelers on the official road from south to north, and now I go back, how can I still find it!
Afraid that the cuckoo would not listen and something would happen, Jin Nian snorted, and said in a deep voice: "Don't make a noise about this matter, and don't mention it to your mother when you return to Yangzhou, and when I see my grandmother one day, I will ask the old man for her guilt." ”
Du Juan didn't move anymore, thinking about the emotions between her young lady and Gu Yanyi, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to wipe her face and go to someone else for help, so she made up her mind to turn around and quietly go to Gu Yanyi.
Today's snow is the beginning of the day, after the lunch break, the sun began to tilt, Du Juan thought that Jin Nian was in a bad mood, so he proposed that she go to the verandah to bask in the sun, Jin Nian did not refuse.
When she saw Aunt Rong also basking in the sun in the corridor, Jin Nian was very surprised, and she went to her room last night to ask like crazy, it was only one night, and she could sit on the brocade and bask in the sun like no one else, could it be that Aunt Rong figured it out so quickly?
When Jin Nian walked past her, Aunt Rong suddenly stood up, raised her eyebrows to look at her, and said, "Sixth Miss got up so late today, did she think that she would be able to sit back and relax by sending me to the nunnery?" ”
Jin Nian ignored her and calmly walked past Aunt Rong and walked forward.
Aunt Rong straightened the broken hair on her sideburns, stared at Jin Nian's back and laughed to herself: "We...... It's a long time to come! ”
Dare to love this is an inch? Jin Nian hooked his lips and stopped, turned to look at Aunt Rong, and said with a faint smile: "I don't know if it's long, but it's getting worse right now!" She stretched out her hand and pointed to the sun, which was setting in the west.
Aunt Rong glared at her and didn't reply.
Jin Nian turned around with a light smile and took the cuckoo to the other end of the corridor, where the sun was shining obliquely, sprinkled on people ambiguously, and Jin Nian's depressed mood was much better.
In the evening, the cuckoo came in and said that Gu Cheng asked to see her.
Jin Nian was surprised, looked up at the window, the window glued with Korean paper still had a dim light coming in, and it was not dark yet, she asked the cuckoo to pass it on.
This was the first time since Gu Cheng appeared, Jin Nian had close contact with him. He walked into the guest room, stopped three steps away from the door, bowed slightly towards Jinnian, and said with a fist: "My subordinates are not doing well, I lost Miss Six's things, please punish Miss Six!" ”
Hearing Gu Cheng speak like this, Jin Nian understood in her heart that Gu Yanyi must have known about her loss of ruby, and yes, there were many people in this post station Gu Yanyi, and what else could be hidden from him. I'm afraid that Gu Cheng also asked him to make amends to her, which also indirectly proves that Gu Yanyi does not have the whereabouts of the ruby here.
The matter has come to this, what else can Jin Nian say, not to mention that the fault is on himself, what is the matter with Gu Cheng.
She smiled and said, "It's a blessing that people can get out safely, and those things outside the body should only be used to destroy wealth and eliminate disasters, and you don't have to blame yourself." ”
Gu Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and only then did he dare to look up at Jin Nian, when he saw Jin Nian's white face, Gu Cheng's eyes flashed with amazement, and it took a while to come back to his senses, and hurriedly said: "My subordinates have paid attention to it, and if there is news, I will definitely come to inform Miss Six." ”
Gu Cheng is Gu Yanyi's person, without Gu Yanyi's order, how dare he call the shots.
So, Gu Cheng was telling her that Gu Yanyi had asked someone to find gems? I don't know if he cares about men and women or annoys her, he has always given him a look at every turn, he is also fed up, right?
That's fine, so that they don't get involved and get together again in the future!
Gu Cheng saw that her expression was indifferent, and he retired with interest: "You need to get up early tomorrow to hurry, Miss Six will rest early......
It was a good weather for several days, the carriage drove fast on the official road, Xiaoxing stayed overnight for two days, and on the third day, just after noon, they returned to the suburbs of the north gate of Yangzhou.
The closer he got to Yangzhou, Jin Nian's mood became better, and he didn't fall asleep all the way, looking at the scenery outside the car window. As soon as the carriage stopped, from a distance, she recognized her second uncle Su Yousong at a glance, who was standing in the Shili Pavilion, followed by several maids and mothers-in-law outside the pavilion, and two flat-headed carriages.
On the hill opposite the Shili Pavilion, the spire of the Baolin Nunnery is faintly in sight.
Several people in the group were juniors, Gu Yanyi asked the carriage to stop at the edge of the Shili Pavilion, and took the lead in greeting Su Yousong, Jin Nian and Su Zifeng hurriedly got out of the car and saluted Su Yousong.
Su Yousong stepped forward and helped Su Zifeng to stand up and said, "It's been hard all the way, it's good to be home!" ”
"It's not hard!" Su Zifeng shook his head, looked up at the flat-headed carriage and a few maids behind Su Yousong, and asked, "Where is the second uncle going?" Why do you bring this kind of person? ”
Su Yousong manages the affairs of the Su Mansion and often goes far away, so Su Zifeng doesn't think it's strange.
The smile on Su Yousong's face paused, and he patted Su Zifeng on the shoulder: "You have read the letter from your father, I am waiting here today, just to send your aunt to Baolin Nunnery with you." ”
Father only said that he wanted him to send his aunt to the nunnery, he never expected to be in such a hurry, Su Zifeng was stunned and couldn't react for a while.
Aunt Rong, who was still in the carriage, heard it clearly, and regardless of the ground, she lifted the curtain and shouted to Su Yousong: "What did the second master say, even if you want me to go to the nunnery, you should let me kowtow to the old lady, meet the fifth lady, I am also her biological mother!" ”
When Jin Nian heard this, she smiled, a few days ago, she saw Aunt Rong so indifferent, and what did she say about the long future, thinking that she had something to rely on, it turned out that she was counting on the old lady and Su Jintong!
