Chapter 299: The Stirring Spirits (Second Update)
Mao's can't take care of anything to avoid this time, now she has a reputation in the Gu family, she has cried dry tears these days, she can hardly get up from the bed, and no one has asked a word, and she can't help it anymore when she sees the grievances in Gu Mingzhu's heart.
“…… I felt something was wrong before, your second uncle didn't go back to the house all day, he didn't come back until the curfew, and there was still a smell of fat powder on his body, it was clearly ......, it was clearly " Mao was angry and annoyed when he thought about it, "Later, I found out that he was messing around in Pingkangfang, and he was still ......"
Looking at the two ladies who had not yet come out of the cabinet, Mao couldn't go on, and he didn't expect these two little ladies to understand the sadness, but he couldn't help but talk about it, after all, this kind of thing is really tormenting.
Gu Mingyu didn't understand what kind of place Pingkangfang was, but Gu Mingzhu knew that it was a famous brothel in Chang'an City, and he didn't expect Gu Yuan to be there every day, but there was a lot of money there, where did Gu Yuan have so much money and silver.
Mao paused and said: "He quietly embezzled the money and silver of the spice shop before, and then he didn't spend enough, and he hit my body again, but now where is there any money left, there is really no way, so he has to come back, but he quarrels with me every day." ”
"That day, I found out about Pingkangfang, I was so angry that I went back to the old lady, and I also hoped that the old lady could persuade him, but I never thought that the old lady would reproach me, only saying that I was not virtuous, and I had no way to do it, so I couldn't keep your second uncle's heart, she, she, she was still ......"
I really couldn't say it anymore, she covered her face and cried bitterly, or the little maid Ayun she brought from Qingzhou whispered: "The old lady rewarded Afu to Erlangjun......"
Gu Mingzhu and Gu Mingyu's faces changed, and they were speechless when they looked at the crying Mao.
Gu Yuan went to Pingkangfang to mess around, and when Mrs. Gu found out, not only did she not persuade her, but instead rewarded a maidservant to Gu Yuan, where is this to calm the conflict, it is obviously to force the Mao family to have no place to deal with themselves, and to make trouble in the second room.
It's just that the two of them can't say anything, after all, this is a family matter in the second room, they are all ladies who have not left the cabinet, and it is not easy to speak, especially Gu Mingzhu, who is no longer from the Gu Mansion, and it is not easy to ask more.
Gu Mingzhu sighed, took the handkerchief from the handmaiden's hand, personally delivered it to the Mao family, and said softly: "The second lady wipes her face, don't be sad." ”
Her face was full of emotion, and she shook her head and said, "After all, it is the old lady's meaning, and there is no way to do it." ”
Mao remembered Mrs. Gu's rightful face that day, and she was full of resentment, obviously it was Gu Yuan's fault, but when it came to Mrs. Gu's mouth, it became her own fault, even the man went to the brothel to raise a female prostitute because the woman was not virtuous, and he also reprimanded her for not giving birth, and even threatened that if she couldn't keep to herself, Gu Yuan would take her leave.
And Gu Yuan, who was originally full of fear and anxiety, had the support of Mrs. Gu, and he also hardened, calmly accepted Afu, and also gave Afu the West Cross Courtyard, planning to carry Afu as an aunt.
When she thought of this, she was so angry that her hands and feet trembled: "They want to force me to death, they want to drive me out of the house, they don't think about it!" I'm the rightful second lady in this house, and no one wants to have any bad ideas! I will never say yes! ”
Gu Mingzhu looked at Mao's gritted teeth full of fighting spirit, and slowly hooked the corners of his lips, that's right, Mao's is not easy to get along with, in his previous life, I heard that Mao and Luo's had a dispute openly and secretly, and there was no avoidance and attention to Mrs. Guifu's avoidance, and she was so fierce and fierce, thinking that only such a scruples-free temperament could fight back and forth with Mrs. Gu.
After talking to Mao, Gu Mingzhu took Gu Mingyu to get up and say goodbye, and Mao also pulled Gu Mingzhu and said: "The county lord has now entered the palace, and his identity is becoming more and more valuable. ”
Gu Mingzhu pursed her lips and smiled: "Where is the second lady talking about, I am still close to the lady in my heart, and I also know the current situation in the house......"
She sighed and shook her head: "In the future, I will move around more to get closer." ”
Mao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly thanked him, and personally sent Gu Mingzhu out of the courtyard.
"Big sister, old lady, this is ......" Gu Mingyu didn't know how to say something, this was not what she should say as a lady in the boudoir, nor what a junior should say, but she really couldn't help it, "Is it because she was deceived that she was confused?" ”
Gu Mingzhu glanced at her with some surprise, she knew that although Gu Mingyu had a rude temperament in the past, she was pure and filial in her heart, and she respected Old Madam Gu and Luo the most, but at this time, she would say such things, which showed that she was really cold-hearted.
She smiled lightly: "The third sister should see for herself and figure out for herself why this is." ”
When I arrived outside the inner hall, I saw Mrs. Cen arrive with several ladies of the Cen family, and Mrs. Gu helped the maid to follow outside the hall in person, greeting and laughing with them.
Gu Mingzhu saw it from afar, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, complaining that Chang'an Guifu didn't have much respect for Old Madam Gu, it was really her power to be greedy for money and teach people to look down on her, in the past, the Gu family and the Cen family also corresponded, but Old Madam Gu never put a mere imperial history mansion in her eyes, and she didn't care much about the enthusiastic and generous Third Mrs. Cen, but now that Cen Liuniang has just been married to King Chen Liu, Old Madam Gu is like a different face, full of enthusiasm and cordiality, and I think about it, I also know that King Chen Liuwang is the prince most valued by the saint, Even if she is still confined to the Chenliu Palace, with the protection of the saint, her future future is limitless, but her attitude of being condescending and respectful is really intriguing.
Seeing Gu Mingzhu passing, Mrs. Cen suddenly had a smile on her face, and hurriedly greeted her and saluted: "The county lord is here, but I haven't seen the county lord for a while, and my bearing is getting better and better." ”
Compared with the sincere and enthusiastic Mrs. Cen San, Mrs. Cen is much more sleek, Gu Mingzhu also greeted her politely, and then looked at the ladies of the Cen family who bowed to her, and her eyes fell on the Cen Sixth Lady who lowered her eyebrows slightly.
This Cen Liuniang is not the princess of Chenliu yet, when she saluted Gu Mingzhu, but when Gu Mingzhu looked at her, she seemed to hesitate a little, raised her eyes and glanced at Gu Mingzhu, and quickly looked away, as if she didn't dare to look directly at Gu Mingzhu's gaze.
Gu Mingzhu sighed lowly, turned around and walked towards Old Madam Gu, she no longer had hope for Cen Liuniang's Gu Mingzhu, she had given her a chance to make it clear to herself, hoping that she would be able to open her heart and not live up to the good feelings, but unfortunately she was not sure, and she never trusted Gu Mingzhu at all, and Gu Mingzhu didn't want to force it anymore.
What she has to do today is to figure out Gu Mingyu's affairs, she can't watch Old Madam Gu and the Liu family arbitrarily manipulate Gu Mingyu's marriage, no matter what means they use, I'm afraid that this time they won't be able to do what they want, everything they have done in the past and now, just count the new hatred and old hatred together.
