Chapter 392: Family Matters (Part 1)
By the time the prince returned to the palace, it was already the twenty-seventh day of the lunar month, and he was about to seal the New Year, but he was still in turmoil in the court because of the storage position.
The sage's head wind became heavier and heavier, barely supporting the court, and he really didn't say much about the prince's return to the palace, but just asked a few words and went down early.
The queen of heaven listened to Xu Siyan's return and chuckled, everything was as she expected.
She smiled with Gu Mingzhu: "Seeing that it is the New Year, will you stay in the palace for the New Year this year, or go back to the General's Mansion?" ”
Gu Mingzhu thought of Gu Qinglai, and couldn't help but feel sullen in her heart, and said in a low voice: "If the mother agrees, I want to go back to the county lord's mansion to celebrate the New Year, and then enter the palace to ask the mother to celebrate the New Year." ”
The queen of heaven looked at her and sighed softly: "You kid, I can't complain that I feel sorry for you, your temperament is really similar to mine, and you are stubborn." ”
She shook her head, looking helpless: "That's it, I don't advise you, you go back to spend the New Year, Yuan Ri came with them, and then go back to relax for a few days." ”
Gu Mingzhu hurriedly got up and thanked him, and the queen of heaven smiled again: "There is just one thing I want to explain to you, you help me teach the rules in the Mingyu Palace well, and she can use it in the future." ”
Gu Mingzhu understood what the queen of heaven meant, not only to ask her to be closer to Gu Mingyu, but also to tell Gu Qing that she was afraid that there would be an edict to marry and then go to Gu Mansion soon.
Gu Mingzhu responded softly.
On the way out of the palace, there was a light snow, Gu Mingzhu opened the curtain, raised her head slightly, watched the snowflakes fall into the carriage, and smiled slightly, this year is about to pass, everything has changed a lot, and her life has also changed a lot, it is not like before, this time she should be able to spend it peacefully.
When they arrived at the county lord's mansion, the figure of Mama Han standing outside the door with an umbrella could be seen from a distance, and the dim wind lamps in the hands of the maids were warm in the snow, and they greeted them happily when they saw their carriage coming.
At that moment, Gu Mingzhu's heart slowly woke up from the coldness, no matter how many lifetimes she was reincarnated, after all, there were still people who always cared about her and could look forward to her return in the wind and snow.
After getting out of the carriage, Mama Han walked up quickly and gave her an umbrella, with a smile on the wrinkles on her face: "The county lord is back." ”
Gu Mingzhu looked at the thin snow falling on Mama Han's dress, and couldn't help but feel unbearable: "Mama, you just tell them to come, the wind and snow are so big, how can you stand it." ”
Mama Han smiled and pounced on the snow on the big snow for Gu Mingzhu: "How can this be made, it's just a little snow, how dare the county lord not welcome him when he returns to the house." ”
She said to Gu Mingzhu as she walked: "The preparations for the New Year have been made, and the mansion is all ready, just waiting for the county lord to return to the mansion." ”
She said, frowned and whispered: "Today, the General's Mansion sent a post, saying that it was to invite the county lord to a family banquet on Chinese New Year's Eve. ”
Gu Mingzhu listened to the muttering for a long time and did not answer.
Looking at her face, Mama Han's heart sank, she sighed secretly, didn't dare to say more, and accompanied Gu Mingzhu into the room.
There was no response to the post sent to the county lord's mansion, and Mao couldn't wait to come in person.
“…… After all, it is a family, even if there is something that should be lively for the New Year. Mao gently persuaded Gu Mingzhu, "The old lady is not in the house this year, there are no bad things, that is, let's have a family banquet together, we can't let you be alone here to celebrate the New Year." ”
Mao said very earnestly, Gu Mingzhu was silent for a while, and then said softly: "Second aunt, I'll just go." ”
She didn't want to see Gu Qing, but Gu Mingyu and the Mao family were sincere to her, and she couldn't ignore the rumors outside.
Mao's heart was relieved at this time, and he said with a smile: "After this year, Mingli will get married next year, Mingyu is afraid that she will also talk about family affairs, and it is rare for your sisters to get together." ”
As she spoke, she suddenly remembered something, frowned and said: "There is another thing, a few days ago, Mama Qu sent a message from Qinglian Temple, saying that the second lady had been cultivating in Qinglian Temple for some days, and she had been crying and refusing to eat for the past few days, saying that she wanted to go back to the house to visit the eldest lady and congratulate the general on the New Year." ”
Gu Mingzhu raised her eyebrows, if she hadn't said it, she would have almost forgotten about Gu Mingyue, she had been sent to Qinglian Temple for so long, and she hadn't made any more trouble, it seemed that she had moved her mind again, and she wanted to make some noise.
She smiled faintly: "Have you ever reported to your father?" ”
Mao shook his head: "Mama Qu asked someone to deliver the news to me, and she didn't report it directly to the general." ”
Mama Qu was arranged by Gu Mingzhu, so she had to wait for Mao's permission to do anything, no matter how much Gu Mingyue made trouble, she would not respond to her.
Seeing that Mao looked at herself, waiting for her answer, Gu Mingzhu smiled, and laughed coldly: "She looked at it as if it was going to be the New Year, and the old lady was sent back to the clan again, she begged bitterly, and her father would inevitably soften her heart and let her come back to the house." ”
"It's just that she thought about it, since I sent her there, I didn't plan to let her come back in a dignified manner." Gu Mingzhu said coldly, "What's more, in the New Year, it's too unlucky to see someone like that, it's embarrassing!" ”
Mao nodded: "The second lady is too deep in her thoughts, if she is allowed to come back to the house, maybe something will happen." ”
Gu Mingzhu said to her: "The second aunt asked people to go back to Mama Qu, and said that if the second lady made a big fuss, she would send her to another courtyard in the mountain, so as not to delay the cultivation of the masters in the temple if she was not quiet." ”
Qinglian Temple has a courtyard in the depths of the mountains and forests, where it is even more bitter than Qinglian Temple, from the other courtyard to Qinglian Temple, you have to walk for most of the day, and there is no human population, send Gu Mingyue there I am afraid that she will not be able to have other thoughts.
Mao smiled: "The county lord still has an idea, so I'll arrange it." ”
Gu Mingzhu smiled lightly: "Second aunt, you are now the head of the house, you don't have to ask me about anything in the future, you can arrange it, it's all appropriate." ”
Mao smiled bitterly: "What kind of housewife, I'm just trying my best to help with it, I can't tell when your second uncle will ......."
How could she have no mustard, in the past, Gu Yuan had no interest, eating wine and gambling in Qingzhou, but she always respected and loved her, although she hated him for being useless, but she still never had other thoughts, but now, when she thought about Gu Yuan's indifference to her, she was very protective of Afu's cheap maid, and even rode her on her head, and practiced herself with his mother, she felt as cold as ice cubes in her heart.
Gu Mingzhu also knew what she was for, but after all, it was a matter of their husband and wife, so she couldn't persuade much, so she could only say softly: "Second aunt's heart is relaxed, otherwise Ji Tailai, now you are a well-deserved lady in charge of the house, just be at ease." ”
