Chapter 180: Awkward (Second Update)
Gu Mingzhu looked up at Gu Qing in surprise, and quickly lowered his head: "The grange is all there, but there are not a few people left by A-Niang, all these years have been sent to Zhuangzi or sold, and the money and silver in the public account of the East Mansion are gone, and even the money and silver on the account of the Zhuangzi shop are empty." ”
Gu Qing felt a little bitter in his heart, and his voice was low: "When you were young, there was no proper person in the house to help you take care of it, so you asked the old lady to take care of it...... The old lady is also old, and her health is not good, so it is inevitable that there will be confusion, you don't have to keep it in mind, or let it be more ......"
Gu Mingzhu looked at Gu Qing, staring at him intently, looking at her father, who was originally tall and sturdy, sitting in front of her, but his body was a little rickety, and his temples also had silver hair, he was no longer the high-spirited hussar general he was at the beginning.
But Gu Mingzhu couldn't feel pity in her heart, she said lightly: "If my aunt is here, she will bear to watch me suffer these grievances, and they will take the property in the East Mansion with confidence, and come to calculate me again and again?" ”
Gu Qing didn't expect Gu Mingzhu to say this, she was speechless for a while, and she couldn't open her mouth after looking at her for a long time.
Gu Mingzhu was not in the mood to listen to Gu Qing persuade herself to forgive the old lady and them, she stood up, straightened her skirt and bowed down: "Father, please go back, A-Niang is gone, I will protect what I and A-Niang left behind, if anyone wants to fight any idea, I will not agree." ”
Gu Qing was stunned and watched her eldest daughter straighten up and walk away step by step, before she sighed with a gloomy face and got up and left.
The spice shop in the East Market has been closed for a long time, and even the shopkeeper who is dotted in the shop has been missing.
But I didn't expect to see the shop open the door again on this day, and there were many people going in and out of the shop, carrying shelves and desks to send it in, as if they were going to clean it up again.
Xiao Yuan's eyes were round and he hid at the door of the pawn shop and watched, looking at the people coming in and out, wanting to see which one of the Gu family was coming.
It wasn't until Gu Mingzhu's carriage stopped in front of the shop that Xiaokui helped Gu Mingzhu get out of the carriage that Xiaoyuan's eyes lit up, and he laughed a few times and turned back to the pawn shop and went to the private room on the second floor.
"Lang Jun, someone has come to that shop, it's Mrs. Gu." Madoka said cheerfully, looking into the private room.
Cui Linduan sat on the desk, spread out a large map in front of him, with a lot of marks on it, and was groaning with a pen, and couldn't help frowning after listening to Xiaoyuan's words: "Irrelevant things don't have to be reported." ”
Xiaoyuan stuck out his tongue: "It was Mrs. Gu who came, so she came to report to Lang Jun." ”
Mrs. Gu is different, Xiaoyuan insists on thinking so, but there is no lady who can make their family Langjun care, but it is different for this Mrs. Gu.
As for what's different, Madoka can't tell, it's the kind of care that cares about it.
He thought so, but Lang Jun didn't think it, at least Lang Jun himself felt that it was no different.
On that day, he received the news from the eastern capital, Lang Jun's face was very ugly, which made Qi Langjun and him startled, and later learned that it was sent by His Royal Highness King Chen Liu, and the letter said that His Royal Highness intended to propose marriage to the Gu family, and wanted to marry Gu Da Niang as the princess, so that the two Lang Jun could help come up with ideas.
Originally, Lang Jun was very concerned about the affairs of His Royal Highness King Chen Liu, but this time he didn't mention half a word, and just read a book in the private room for a whole day.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but shake his head, Lang Jun and Qi Lang Jun often say that he is stupid, he is not stupid, at least only he can see that Lang Jun is different from this Gu lady.
Sure enough, Cui Lin still put down the pen in his hand and looked at him lightly: "It's been reported, you go down." ”
Obviously want to know, and put on that iceberg face.
Xiao Yuan pursed his lips, reluctantly retreated, went downstairs by himself, and walked to the spice shop opposite.
"The eldest lady is well."
Gu Mingzhu looked back, only to see that the little servant Xiaoyuan in front of Cui Lin saluted him respectfully, but his round eyes were looking at her curiously.
She couldn't help laughing: "It's been a while, and your Langjun is still on it?" She glanced at the private room on the second floor of the pawn shop.
Xiaoyuan nodded: "Lang Jun is looking at the map, don't let me serve in front of me, I saw the eldest lady coming, so I thought about coming over to say hello." ”
Youtu? Gu Mingzhu heard it clearly, his heart moved, and he asked with a smile: "This is strange, why do you have to look at the map, is it possible that Cui Wulangjun also has to learn to march and arrange the formation?" ”
Xiaoyuan pouted: "My family Langjun is the best at the art of war, where do you have to learn it again." ”
Gu Mingzhu smiled and didn't ask any more, but asked Cui Yi: "Isn't Cui Qilang here?" ”
"Qilangjun went back to Boling a few days ago, and I'll be back in a few days, I heard that I went to pick up people," Xiaoyuan tilted his head, but he didn't hide it from Gu Mingzhu, "It seems that Mrs. Zheng is coming to Chang'an, and the clan wants Qilangjun to send her over." ”
Mrs. Zheng? Xingyang Zheng's?
She said with some puzzlement: "The lady of the Zheng family came to Chang'an, why did she go to Cui's house?" "It sounds strange that Cui Qilang will send it over in person.
Xiaoyuan's eyes rolled around, and he lowered his voice and approached Gu Mingzhu and said: "I'm afraid the eldest lady doesn't know, that eldest lady of the Zheng family came to see my family Langjun, in the past, the eldest lady of the Zheng family went to Boling from time to time to say goodbye to my old lady, and she would stay for a long time, just to see Langjun, and this time she came to Chang'an." ”
He successfully watched Gu Mingzhu's face change slightly, and hurriedly smiled and added: "It's just that my family Langjun has always treated each other politely, and he didn't even say a few words, and this time Langjun didn't pay attention to it, so the clan asked Qilangjun to pick up the eldest lady." ”
Gu Mingzhu's face quickly returned to normal, and said lightly: "I see, it's a beautiful thing." ”
Xingyang Zheng family and Boling Cui family are no more than right, they are all noble families with lintels, the son of the Cui family and the lady of the Zheng family are indeed a match made in heaven, like Cui Lin, an outstanding Langjun, and only the lady in the family can be worthy of him.
Gu Mingzhu lowered her eyes, her thick and slender eyelashes covered her eyes, and she couldn't see her joy and anger, so she only heard her turn around and tell Xiao Kui: "Let Steward Yu take someone to clean up, it will open in two days, I have to come back when I am free, he has to take care of it himself." ”
She didn't even ask about Mrs. Zheng again, which made Xiaoyuan very disappointed, and she left and went back to the pawnshop a little sullenly.
