The two brocade boxes were placed in front of Old Madam Gu, she looked left and right, right and left, sat on the couch with a puzzled face, and pointed to the two brocade boxes: "What the hell is going on." โ
Mao's eyes smashed his mouth, no wonder Luo was so bold, daring to change the congratulatory gifts sent to the palace, it turned out that she had already kept a hand, and also gave a pair of ginseng to the old lady, but she looked at the two pairs of ginseng There is no difference, what is going on?
Gu Yuan also poked his neck and looked at it for a long time, but he was confused: "This, how can there be two pairs of ginseng, they don't look the same." โ
Old Madam Gu was completely annoyed, and fiercely ordered Mama Qu on the side: "Go, go and ask me to ask a medical officer, I don't believe it and I can't figure it out!" โ
Songshou Yuan wants to ask for a doctor, such an important matter should be reported to Chunhui Hall, and Luo personally arranged for someone to invite, if the old lady is really sick, Luo has to hurry over to serve.
But this Chunhui Hall was in a mess, and those Mrs. Anning Bofu, who were crying and shouting, were easily sent out of the door, and Luo had to listen to them hold hands one by one to explain, and be sure to think of how to help her mother's family, where could she take the time to go back to take care of the affairs of the house.
When Mama Qu thought of Old Madam Gu's angry appearance, she didn't dare to delay any longer, and she didn't dare to send news to Chunhui Hall again, so she went straight out of the house to ask for a doctor.
When the maidservant girl from Xifu came to invite Gu Mingzhu, she was sitting comfortably in the water pavilion eating white fungus soup, looking at the pond full of slim and verdant lotus leaves, and said to Mama Han with a smile: "When the summer is in the summer, the weather is hotter, just tear down these doors and windows, hang the smoke and veil, and enjoy the cool inside." โ
When Mama Han heard this, her heart was tight, seeing that the palace was about to choose the crown princess and the princess to marry, but her lady said that she had no intention of entering the summer.
But if she doesn't expect to give marriage, do you still want Roche to do a family affair for her?
That's just ......
Mama Han smiled a little reluctantly: "If the lady says it's good, it's naturally good." โ
It's not that she's not in a hurry, but she can't do anything about it, no matter how smart and stable Gu Mingzhu is, she is just a lady who hasn't left the cabinet, and she can't discuss her own marriage with her, but who else will plan for Gu Mingzhu now.
Thinking of this, Mama Han felt sad.
The little maid was taken to the water pavilion and bowed timidly: "The old lady invites the eldest lady to go to the West Mansion, there is something to discuss." โ
Gu Mingzhu turned his face slightly and smiled lightly: "Then let's go." โ
What Mao took so much trouble to do, she really wanted to see how it went.
Following the maidservant all the way to Xifu and entering Songshou Courtyard, Gu Mingzhu clearly felt the depressed and low feeling, and a kind of dreary mountain rain was about to permeate the entire courtyard.
The maidservants and maids did not dare to talk and walk around, but they searched for reasons and hid far away, lest they would cause trouble and bring trouble to themselves.
Seeing Gu Mingzhu coming, the little maid waiting in front of the door hurriedly opened the purple bamboo curtain of Concubine Xiang and let her enter the room.
The hall was already full of people, and the old lady Gu who was sitting at the table had a pig's liver color on her face, snorting and panting, but the husband and wife Gu Yuan and Mao, who were sitting with her, had a gloating smile, and the Mao family even said the last sentence from time to time, which made the old lady Gu's face even more ugly.
Luo was already in the hall, she sat with her head down, not looking at the old lady, nor at the two brocade boxes on the desk, her face did not have the usual amiable smile, only numbness and indifference, but it made people feel very strange.
Gu Mingyue and Gu Mingyu were full of uneasiness, looking at Old Madam Gu and then at Luo's in panic, their eyes finally fell on the pair of brocade boxes, full of doubts.
Gu Mingzhu went in and curtsied to Old Madam Gu: "Old Madam." โ
It seems that Old Madam Gu is really angry, watching Gu Mingzhu snort from her nose, and then glaring at Luo over there again, she asked Gu Mingzhu and them to come not just to see Luo's jokes, but to make everyone in this mansion understand, dare to eat inside and outside to make up her mind about the Gu family's wealth, no matter who it is, she will not spare it.
Gu Mingzhu sat down on the side, and saw Mao's smug glance at her, pursed her lips and smiled gently, and looked away, Mao was afraid that she had been looking forward to this day for a long time, and the two of them wanted to get silver from the house, and the first one to pull it down was Luo.
Seeing that they were all coming, Old Madam Gu gritted her teeth and said, "Da Lang went to the Gyeonggi camp today, otherwise I would have to come and listen to it, and see if there can be such a shameless thing in our house!" โ
She trembled with anger, stretched out her hand and pointed to the two brocade boxes on the desk, and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth: "Our eldest lady is really thoughtful, saying that it is rare to have good ginseng, and she specially left it to honor me and personally sent it to me, I really think she is a filial piety." โ
"Who knew that she actually took such a ginseng that was not worth much money and silver to serve as ginseng, and I couldn't tell that she was deliberately deceiving me, but in private she sent this pair of good ginseng to her mother's house, and privately took the head and face jewelry back to make up for her mother's house that was sparse and couldn't support the wall!"
The more Mrs. Gu spoke, the more angry she became, she shook her head again, and her breath was uneven: "What did our Gu family do, to find such a shameless and unvirtuous daughter-in-law to enter the door!" โ
She said that tears came down, and when she was scolding, she suddenly remembered that this daughter-in-law seemed to be what she found for Gu Qing, and said busily: "I only thought she was a good one at first, and she also looked like she was knowledgeable and knowledgeable on weekdays. โ
Such vulgar words sounded particularly pleasing to the ears in Mao's, and when she thought of Luo's disdain when she first arrived in Chang'an, she felt that she was so relieved now.
She said coldly on the side: "Ah Jiadon't be angry, maybe the sister-in-law is just confused for a while, otherwise how could she give such a valuable ginseng and head noodles to her mother's family, but I heard that the head noodles are red gold and solid, and there are good red treasures embedded in them, and I know that it is very valuable." โ
She doesn't mind adding fuel to the fire, the handle of Roche is firmly in her hands, and it will be difficult to turn over in this mansion in the future.
Luo slowly raised his head at this time, and didn't look at the Mao family who was fanning the flames, but looked straight at Old Madam Gu: "Ah Jia, I have something to say to you alone, and please send these irrelevant people away." โ
She didn't take the Mao family in her eyes at all, let alone Gu Mingzhu and Gu Yuan, the only thing she cared about was what Old Madam Gu meant.
