Chapter 362: Everything Has Me
Looking at Gu Qing's slightly slumped back, Gu Mingzhu's eyes were not half moved, only cold.
If it is said that the suffering she has suffered over the years, the life and death she has experienced is because of Mrs. Gu and Luo, but after all, it is because of Gu Qing, the father who should have sheltered her, but he was so selfish and weak that he found a reason for himself to hide in the northwest, and handed her into the hands of a group of jackals, and how did she learn to forgive.
She returned to the study and opened the "Taiping Miscellaneous" again, but this time she sat under the window with the scroll in her hand in a daze, watching the light snow slowly drift in the gloomy sky, and the snowflakes fell from the half-open curtains, and the sable that fell on Gu Mingzhu's shoulders melted silently.
Ah Bi slowed his steps when he came in, looked at Gu Mingzhu's silent appearance, sighed lowly, and sent a post up: "County Lord, this is sent by the Cui family from Lizhuang." ”
Gu Mingzhu slowly turned her head and looked at the post: "It was sent by Mrs. Cui?" ”
Cui Lin sent Mrs. Cui to live in Lizhuang, since this post was sent from Lizhuang, it must be Mrs. Cui's meaning.
She unfolded the post, the handwriting on it was beautiful and elegant, it was really not Cui Lin's, and she invited her to Lizhuang for a gathering in a few days.
Ah Bi said softly: "It was sent by the maid next to Mrs. Cui." ”
Gu Mingzhu smiled faintly, thinking that Mrs. Cui still refused to give up.
She handed the post to Abi: "Take it, and leave the village with me when the time comes." ”
For these families who are above the top, the more they show weakness and curry favor with them, the more they feel despised by them, but she is not afraid to meet Mrs. Cui for a while.
On the way back to the palace, the snow fell heavier and heavier, and the snowflakes rustled on the canopy of the carriage, like spring silkworms gnawing mulberry leaves, and there was a rare silence in the market, and the night had fallen in advance under the hazy sky.
Abi instructed the coachman to pick up the lights, and the carriage walked in the thicker and thicker snow, slowly driving towards the Taiji Palace.
It was only when they arrived at the gate of the palace that they saw a carriage coming towards them with a lamp in the distance, and stopped in front of them.
The carriage curtain was opened, Xiao Yuan poked his head out of the carriage, looked at Ah Bi who opened the curtain and showed a stammering smile, his round face was full of flattery, he got down from the carriage with a small box in his hand, and quickly stepped forward to bow down: "County Lord, Lang Jun let me send this, please accept it." ”
Gu Mingzhu was a little surprised, at this time, the wind and snow were raging, what did Cui Lin send someone?
Ah Bi took the box and sent it to Gu Mingzhu, the plain Nanmu box was warm to the touch, so that Gu Mingzhu didn't feel a little blushing, and she was a little uncomfortable with Xiaoyuan, she coughed lightly and asked Xiaoyuan: "Lang Jun, did he say anything?" ”
Xiao Yuan smiled and shook his head: "Lang Jun just told the little one to come here and wait, saying that the county lord would inevitably return to the palace, and let him hand over the box to the county lord, saying that it was all in the box." ”
Gu Mingzhu lowered his head and looked at the small box, his heartbeat skipped a beat, he forced himself to calm down, and said softly: "I accepted it, you can go back with peace of mind." ”
She didn't even ask what was in the box, and trusted Cui Lin for no reason at all.
Xiao Yuan bowed and said, "The little one will go back and talk back." ”
He had been waiting outside the palace for half an hour, the weather was so cold that it was unacceptable, even if there was a charcoal basin in the carriage, he couldn't stand the north wind and hang it in the curtain, he was already so cold that his hands and feet were cold, and he watched Gu Mingzhu take the box before going back with peace of mind.
On the way to the Ganlu Palace, Gu Mingzhu carefully opened the box and looked into the box, only to see that there was a glossy and clear waist pendant inside, and a silk with a jade pendant on it, but it was half-new, as if it had been worn.
Gu Mingzhu curiously picked up the waist pendant and looked it up and down, only to see that the jade waist pendant that was as clear as glass contained a wisp of emerald color, but it was curling like green smoke, thin as a cicada's wings and disappearing into the jade.
However, there is only one word engraved on the waist, which is Cui Lin's word.
She suddenly remembered that this was the object that Cui Lin wore close to him in the past, that is, his waist.
But how could he let people be delivered to him?
Just this thought made Gu Mingzhu's face completely red, and he quickly put down the jade pendant, as if he had obtained something hot, before picking up the folded letter under his waist.
The letterhead was very light, but when it was opened, there were only four words, but these four words made Gu Mingzhu's heart beat like crazy, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
I have everything for me.
Only these four words made Gu Mingzhu tighten her heartstrings and slowly relax, and when she saw Mrs. Cui's post, her courage and fighting spirit with her head held high couldn't be so exciting at this moment, as if a boat that had been fighting in the huge waves for a long time saw a harbor that could anchor and shelter from the wind in the distance, making this winter night less deserted.
She held the letterhead for a long time, then slowly put it down, exhaled lightly, and her eyes were even clearer, but she picked up the waist pendant with her own hands and looked at it for a long time, and she never let go of her hand.
Ah Bi couldn't help but chuckle when she looked at it, turned her head and whispered to Xiao Kui: "The jade dew group recovered on the last day is still there, I'm afraid there will be more of it this time." ”
It's just that I don't know how many things I received, and Gu Mingzhu's heart defense can be completely released.
When Gu Mingzhu entered the Ganlu Hall to salute the queen of heaven, the blush on her face had already dissipated, and she bowed respectfully: "Niangniang is well." ”
The queen of heaven looked at her and smiled: "Okay, everything in the General's Mansion has been settled?" ”
Gu Mingzhu replied with a smile: "It's all settled." ”
"I heard that Old Madam Gu returned to Qingzhou with the people of the Gu clan?" The queen of heaven was thoughtful, "Qingzhou is a long way away, and it is rare to come back when you are idle." ”
It sounds like an inconsequential greeting, but Gu Mingzhu's heart is tight, the queen of heaven didn't ask much about the Gu family's affairs before, if it wasn't for her arrangement through Princess Anping, I'm afraid she wouldn't have paid attention to the matter of Old Madam Gu taking advantage of the eldest princess of Xuanyang to marry, how could she ...... now?
She speculated and said softly: "Yes, the Gu family is in Qingzhou Township, and the old lady is raised by the Hui clan this time, and the mountains and rivers are long and the road is difficult, even if there is something, she doesn't dare to easily alarm her old man." ”
The queen of heaven nodded: "Who is in charge of the middle feed of the General's Mansion now?" The eldest lady or the second lady? ”
This time, Gu Mingzhu was even more uneasy, and replied: "It's the second aunt, the eldest lady is too sick to be sick, and my father is in charge of sending her to Zhuangzi to raise her." ”
The queen of heaven smiled: "It should be so, I heard that there was a mess in the house before, and there was not even a housewife, but now it looks like it, so anything can be arranged properly." ”
Gu Mingzhu responded with doubts: "What Niangniang said is true." ”
But I became more and more uneasy to think, what does the queen of heaven mean, why did she suddenly care about the Gu family's affairs?
