Chapter 342: The Old Lady Who Caused Trouble (First Update)
The second old lady took a rough envoy to beat the Dengwen drum of Jingzhao Mansion in person, and the third old lady and the sixth old lady also took their maidservants to the front of the palace in person, with a look of righteous indignation.
The door of the Jingzhao Mansion squeaked open, and the Yacha who came out looked at a few old women in front of him who were dressed in ordinary clothes with a surprised face, and did not understand how a few elderly women dared to come to the Jingzhao Mansion, and beat the drum.
"You know what this place is?" The yacha glanced up and down at the second old lady in the lead, "This is the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion, not a place for you countrymen to mess around!" ”
He looked at the two old ladies and they didn't look like some rich and powerful people, so naturally his tone was much more impatient, and he was about to coax them away.
The sixth old lady was a little timid, although she already knew that she was going to come to the mansion, but she was still very weak-hearted, she was so frightened by the yacha, her face was a little stiff, and she stepped forward and carefully pulled the sleeve of the second old lady: "Second sister-in-law, it's better for us to discuss it again." ”
The second old lady saw the grandmother standing by their donkey cart not far away, and her heart suddenly became bold, and her voice was raised, and she raised her head and said to the yacha confidently: "We are the Gu family of Qingzhou, and we want to sue the hussar general's mansion Gu family for killing his wife, corrupting Gangchang, and disrespecting his relatives!" ”
The yacha was stunned, what they said were to sue the Gu family of the Hussar General's Mansion? They turned out to be relatives of the Gu family! This has never happened before, and I have never heard of a family member who is not rushing to fight the already powerful noble house, but wants to complain.
But as soon as the drums sounded, the government was about to open the door to ask about things, and the government could only invite a few old ladies in.
It wasn't until I watched a few old ladies enter the yamen of Jingzhao Mansion that the inconspicuous grandmother who had been standing by the donkey cart quietly retreated into the crowd.
"County Lord, the people have already entered Jingzhao Mansion." Xiao Kui came in with a hand stove and said beside Gu Mingzhu.
Gu Mingzhu took the hand stove, flicked the silver charcoal in the hand stove with a copper pick, and said, "I didn't expect it to be so fast, but what happened in the house over there?" ”
The second old lady was invited into the General's Mansion for less than a day, but they went to Jingzhao Mansion angrily, but they were even faster than Gu Mingzhu thought, but they didn't know what the old lady Gu was making trouble again, so they didn't even want to wait a few more days.
Xiao Kui squeezed her eyebrows and approached Gu Mingzhu: "The county lord didn't expect it, it was the old lady, she asked the second lady to invite the iceman again, and she wanted to tell the third lady a family matter, in front of the second old lady They said that as long as the dowry was enough, the family background was not picky, and if it was a dowry for filling the house, it would be even more one, and the third lady happened to go to a few old ladies to say goodbye, and happened to hear it, and went back to the yard crying. ”
"The old lady knew about it, and asked Mama Deng to reprimand her for being unfilial and disobedient, and the old lady also told the second old lady that she wanted to hire her maiden niece to be a concubine for the general, and the second old lady's face was not good-looking, so she said that if she gave birth to Xiaolang, she would be lifted to fill the house......"
Gu Mingzhu almost laughed out loud, Mrs. Gu seemed to think that the second old lady and they came to Chang'an to fight the autumn breeze, and they actually dared to hit the idea on the niece of the second old lady's mother, originally the second old lady was going to be strong, and the niece of the mother's family was good-looking, and she was going to say a good family business, but the old lady Gu dared to say to her that she wanted to be a concubine, and said that she would give birth to an heir and then straighten it out, the second old lady was afraid that she would vomit blood in anger when she heard this, this was obviously a violation of her family!
Xiao Kui smiled when she saw Gu Mingzhu, and said with more interest: "Not only that, but the old lady also talked to a few old ladies about the clan field, saying that she had a little bit of clan land back then, and now the family has a big business, and it is not good to worry about the clan relatives anymore, but over the years, I am afraid that there are also a lot of benefits from the clan field, and I want a few old ladies to send back the money and silver of the income, and the few clan fields will be with a few clan relatives." ”
Sure enough, it is still difficult to change its nature, not only does it not want the clan to take advantage of it, but also thinks about defrauding it to get some money back, no wonder those few people can't sit still, they don't even want to wait for a day, they want to go to Jingzhao Mansion, this can be regarded as a disaster caused by themselves.
Gu Mingzhu put her slightly cool fingers on the hot hand stove, and said with a shallow smile: "Since you have already made trouble in Jingzhao Mansion, you don't have to pay attention to it, you just let the second lady get ready." ”
Xiao Kui responded: "This makes people go to the General's Mansion." ”
At this time, there has been no movement in the General's Mansion, so it can be seen that Old Madam Gu still doesn't know what trouble has happened, and it will be lively soon.
Speaking of which, Gu Qing is also going to return home from the Xishan camp in the past few days, I don't know what his expression will be when he hears the news.
Gu Mingzhu raised his eyebrows, since he wanted to raise a tiger and let Old Madam Gu act recklessly in the mansion, then don't blame her for cleaning up with him.
At this time, Abi came in with a post, sent it to Gu Mingzhu, frowned and said softly: "County Lord, Mrs. Zheng sent someone to send a post, please come over tomorrow to sit in the house." ”
Gu Mingzhu was a little puzzled, since she entered the palace, she had no contact with Zheng Yuan, although they also greeted each other at the palace banquet these times, they were never close, she could even feel the faint vigilance and hostility behind Zheng Yuan's gentle smiling face, why did she still let people send a post at this time.
She took the post and opened it, it was still Zheng Yuan's beautiful handwriting, only writing that she was invited to the house for a small talk, but she never wrote the reason.
"But who else hasn't go?" After reading it, Gu Mingzhu felt even more puzzled, and had never heard of any banquets in Zheng Yuan's mansion.
Abi said: "It was said that he only invited the county lord to come, and no one else." ”
What is Zheng Yuan going to do? Gu Mingzhu closed the post, sat with a frown, and didn't say anything for a long time.
Seeing her uncertain, Ah Bi had to say again: "The person who came to deliver the post said that Mrs. Zheng had ordered, if the county lord refused to agree, it would be said that it was extremely important, and the county lord must go." ”
Zheng Yuan said this, which made Gu Mingzhu feel even more strange, what could be important between them, what kind of medicine was sold in her gourd. It's just that although she has some suspicions, Gu Mingzhu is not worried about what Zheng Yuan will think about herself, she understands Zheng Yuan's temperament, she looks gentle and kind, but she has the arrogance of a lady in her bones, she will not use vicious means easily, and she has to take care of her identity and face in everything she does.
She pondered for a while, and finally said, "If you ask someone to talk back, just say that I will visit the house tomorrow." ”
Zheng Yuan is so anxious to see her, it won't be for no reason, since Zheng Yuan is so insistent, Gu Mingzhu is not afraid to go over to see her and see what she has to say.
