Chapter 340: Terrible Rumors (Part 1)
When Mama Han and Abi politely sent a few old ladies into the carriage in front of the county lord's mansion, the Chang'an Guifu had already spread all over the country, and the elders of the hussar general Gu Qing came to Chang'an, but they were rejected by the old lady Gu, so they could only settle down in the mansion, and the county lord of Lingling personally went to the mansion to compensate for the Gu family.
These days, because of the illness of the queen of heaven and the situation in the palace, the situation in your mansion has been quiet for a long time, and there is finally a new thing to talk about, where can you still endure it, and the half-day effort will be known to everyone in your mansion.
Gu Mingzhu listened to what Xiao Kui said when Mrs. Huo Wu came to inquire about the news, and chuckled: "This time, the house over there should be in a hurry." ”
In the past, Mrs. Gu often used the word filial piety to suppress everyone, but now the eldest sister-in-law of the Gu family is here, but she lets people live in the mansion, which is rude and disrespectful, so she wants to rely on the old and sell the old, and she can't use the word filial piety to suppress people.
Old Mrs. Gu was really anxious, she didn't expect that it was just a few old women from the countryside who came back to Chang'an and made such a big deal for her, and everyone knew that they were the elders of the Gu Qing clan, and they were driven out by her when they came to the door, and they could only live in the mansion with grievances, so the unfounded rumors portrayed her as a snob who disliked the poor and loved the rich and did not respect the clan.
Such rumors are still spreading, and even several familiar houses in the alley are also talking about the same, and some people say that they saw the servants of the general's mansion blocking several old ladies in the clan from the door, and they did not let them enter the door with evil voices, which confirmed the arrogance and faux pas of the Gu Mansion.
The subordinates got the news from the mouths of the people of the Huo Mansion and sent it back to Mrs. Gu, and she was so angry that she fell back to her heart, and her words were not good: "What did I call them out, they were jealous and refused to stay here, they had to go to the mansion, what is so strange about a few country women living in the mansion, and they dare to say that I hate the poor and love the rich, and I hate the poor and love the rich!" Can I be that kind of person? ”
She stared at Mama Deng below, and Mama Deng snorted uneasily, "How can the old lady be ......?"
But she really didn't know what to say this, but the Mao family on the side snorted and laughed, and said before the old lady Gu was about to change her face: "Where do you still want to deal with those people who chew the root of the tongue, if it is in my opinion, I should invite a few old ladies from the clan to come, politely invite them to live in the mansion, and teach those gossips to understand, but it is not that we don't have guests in the house." ”
She said to herself, and ignored the old lady Gu with a black face: "After all, it is from the clan, if you neglect it, I am afraid that this gossip will spread more and more, not to mention that it will be passed to the palace, that is, it will enter the ears of which imperial history, and I am afraid that it is not a good thing to participate in a book." ”
Old Madam Gu originally straightened her face when she heard her words, and wanted to teach her a few lessons, blaming her for letting those old pious women enter the door, but when she heard it, she couldn't help frowning, and she didn't speak for a while.
Mao was not in a hurry, and waited slowly for Mrs. Gu to nod, these words were also sent by the county lord's mansion to talk to her, and Mrs. Gu couldn't help but have scruples if she wanted to come.
Sure enough, after a long while, Old Lady Gu had to open her mouth, and said reluctantly: "That's it, that's it, in order not to embarrass Da Lang, let people go to the mansion to pick them up, if you have anything to say, you can say it in the house, and you don't have to make a lot of trouble in the city, just because I am a force." ”
What's more, she doesn't believe that a few powerless old pious women from Qingzhou can do anything to her, in the past, they relied on the power of the clan, and it was the eldest sister-in-law who pressed her, and now she is the old lady of the General's Mansion, see what they can do with her when they enter the mansion!
The carriage of the General's Mansion also arrived at the mansion, and Mao personally brought Mama Deng and the maids over, and after a basket of good words, he invited a few old ladies to go back to the General's Mansion again under the curious eyes of everyone.
It's just that this time there is a new version of the rumor, saying that the old lady drove a few eldest sisters-in-law of the clan out of the house in the previous review, and she never wanted to be known about it, so she had to let the second lady take someone to pick up a few old ladies to go back, but she planned to drive them back to Qingzhou in two days, and refused to keep them more.
For a while, the conversation in your mansion was also about the Gu family, and those ladies who had always loved gossip and inquired had already instructed their subordinates to inquire, but they wanted to see if Mrs. Gu really planned to do so.
Gu Mingzhu didn't bother to ask about the General's Mansion anymore, she asked people to prepare congratulatory gifts early in the morning, and then took Abi Xiaokui to General Mingwei's Mansion, this is the right thing she has to do when she leaves the palace, and it is also what the Queen of Heaven wants her to do.
Mingwei General Sun Long said that it was just a martial arts position of the fifth grade, and the little lady and the lady in the house were not a big joy, and they were originally just inviting relatives and friends to make a small congratulations, but now it is not ordinary and lively.
The door of the alley of General Mingwei's mansion has been blocked, and there are carriages coming here one after another, it seems that they are all here to congratulate the little lady and Lu.
Gu Mingzhu's carriage was also blocked at the mouth of the alley, and he walked slowly inside, but compared to those who were anxious to come to the door to congratulate the Sun family, Gu Mingzhu was really not in a hurry.
She leisurely took a bite of the teapot, and then instructed Ah Bi to change the incense tower in the hollow silver sachet, and waited unhurriedly.
However, Xiao Kui couldn't help but glance a few times from behind the curtain, and said in surprise: "But the little lady of General Mingwei's mansion and Lu, why did so many people come to congratulate them, and it looks even more lively than the previous old lady of Huaiyang Bofu's birthday." ”
She followed Gu Mingzhu to many noble mansions and saw many scenes, which was rare and surprising.
Gu Mingzhu smiled, naturally it is different, although the current Mingwei General Sun family is just the mansion of the five-rank martial arts, there is a great family, the light car captain Han Yan Han family.
The daughter of the Han family has been named a noble concubine by the sage, and the queen of heaven is seriously ill, and the only one who can ascend to the middle palace is Han, and the sage intends to reuse Han Yan, let him take charge of the southeast military power, and compete with the hussar general Gu Qing, with such a good family, it is no wonder that many people rushed to the Mingwei General's Mansion to congratulate.
And today Gu Mingzhu is also going to be the one who rushes to the Han family and the Sun family.
She smiled, put down the teapot, and instructed Abi: "After a while, I will hold a congratulatory gift, and go in with me to congratulate." ”
looked at Xiaokui again: "Don't be reckless, let's congratulate us today, we should be sincere and talk to Mrs. Sun and them." ”
Ah Bi and Xiao Kui were busy, but they couldn't understand why the county lord came to congratulate the Sun family, who had never been in contact with each other, and was so cautious, it seemed that the county lord had some plans.
