Chapter 123: Grasping
Mao was getting up, and it was not yet dawn.
Jin Chao sat on the embroidery pier in front of the dressing table, and Qingpu helped her comb her hair.
"The slave maid has found a stove and a hand stove for you in the west room, and the weather is getting colder, and when you come back from Mrs. Tai's later, you can warm your hands......" Qingpu put down the grate and took a rosewood hairpin to help her curl her hair.
Jin Chao hummed and said to her, "...... If you also feel cold, and go to the private warehouse to find bedding, you don't need to tell me. ”
Qingpu agreed. After combing her hair in a bun, Caifu came in with a bowl of chestnut porridge, a stack of fried fruit cakes, and bad whitebait. After breakfast, Qingpu went to the East Cross Courtyard with the Jin Dynasty.
Mrs. Tai got up earlier than usual today, and the lights were turned on in the western room. The steward serving beside Gu Erye was standing under the corridor, standing with his hands down, and Jin Chao couldn't help but slow down when he saw him. Second Master Gu came to the Feng family so early, there must be something important to discuss.
The Jin Dynasty thought of the matter of the Marquis of Changxing's mansion.
When she walked to the bottom of the porch, the steward saluted her, and the rosin on the side went in to spread it.
She soon entered the West Room, and saw that not only Second Master Gu was there, but her father was also inside. Feng sat on the Arhat bed, wearing a linen gown, and holding a Bodhi bead in his left hand. Seeing Gu Jinchao coming in, he smiled and pulled her to sit beside him: "Our sister Chao is actually here." He turned his head to Gu Dezhao and said, "She is a well-behaved person, she comes to serve me every day before the hour, she follows the rules, and she is diligent and quick, I like it very much." ”
Jin Chao smiled and said, "Grandmother praised me." She could feel the coldness of Feng's palms, a kind of greasy after applying the balm.
Gu Dezhao looked at his daughter and said with some reproach: "Grandmother praised you, that is your good, but you have to bear it." Father asked the shopkeeper of Baodi to make you a few new satin jackets, and send them to your Yanxiu Hall with the pastries that your grandmother brought to you. ”
Jin Chao thanked him, but thought in his heart that his father really shouldn't have told her this in front of the Feng family, he should have told her in private.
Sure enough, Feng's face was not very good after hearing this.
When Gu Dezhao was going to marry Ji, she and Ji Wu had a bit of a stiff quarrel.
Gu Dezhao also seemed to feel that it was inappropriate for him to say that, coughed a few times, and said: "Making winter clothes for Sister Chao'er is just by the way, mainly to make satin jackets for my mother, and Sister Pian and Sister Lan are all there." Now that everyone in the house is also going to make winter clothes, I will also order the shopkeeper of Baodi to do it. If my mother asks someone else to do it, it is inevitable that they will earn more. It is natural to do it with the son, and it is not worth a penny. ”
Feng's face improved a lot, and he inevitably had to say a few words to Gu Dezhao: "...... You are also in business when you open a ready-to-wear shop, how can your mother take advantage of you, don't do it next time. But he did not say anything about the money.
In Feng's opinion, Gu Dezhao returned to the Gu family, so his property was naturally the Gu family. It's just that she can't open her mouth to let Gu Dezhao take it out, after all, most of Gu Dezhao's existing property is only available to the Ji family. But Gu Dezhao's family eats at the Gu family, if she doesn't take some money out, she is really unwilling, Gu Dezhao can be so stingy, it is naturally good.
Second Master Gu suddenly spoke: "Since this is the case, my third brother and I will leave first." Changxing Houye is seriously ill, you can remember to visit in the afternoon, and also settle down the five brothers and sisters. ”
Feng nodded and said, "I'm awake, you still have to go into the palace to cry, so go first." ”
After Gu Erye and Gu Dezhao left, the girl came up one after another with barley porridge, crispy honey cakes, yellow cakes and a plate of new tender cucumber shreds. Jin Chao served Feng Shi for breakfast, and peeled a Tangqi Fu orange for her.
Feng leaned on the big pillow, half-squinting his eyes as if he was asleep. She woke up too early today, and she wasn't in good spirits.
Jin Chao thought about what Gu Er Ye said, Chang Xinghou was injured, and the injury was so serious that he needed Feng to visit him in person...... Chang Xinghou was killed on the spot in the previous life, since he did not die in this life, and looking at the reaction of the second master, if Chang Xinghou was charged with rebellion, he would definitely be avoided, but he also wanted Feng to visit. That proves that the Marquis of Changxing Mansion has escaped this catastrophe.
I don't know how Ye Liang saved Chang Xinghou.
Since the charge of rebellion did not fall on Chang Xinghou, would Prince Rui give up so simply?
Jin Chao didn't know anything.
After thinking about it, she reached out to rub her temples for Feng, and said softly: "I see that my grandmother is still very tired, so it is better to go and take a nap first." The second uncle and father came to talk to you so early, I'm afraid you haven't rested well, and your father didn't say to pay attention......"
Feng Shi didn't open his eyes, and the tension between his eyebrows relaxed a lot. She said slowly: "It's urgent, and you can't blame your father...... Last night, Prince Rui was beheaded by Hou Ye for rebellion, and Hou Ye was seriously injured again, this matter is still your fifth aunt sent a letter overnight to say, but you can't relax. Grandmother also wants to rest, but she has to go to the capital in the afternoon, and the affairs in this house can only be dealt with now......"
Prince Rui was killed for rebellion?
Jin Chao was a little incredulous and was charged with rebellion...... Isn't it Changxinghou! How did it become that Prince Rui was killed for rebellion?
Could it be that Ye Limit did it? This kind of murder with a knife is indeed like him.
The Jin Dynasty couldn't help but sigh at the depth of these people's scheming, and the matter of the court's political struggle was indeed too complicated and changing rapidly. Rao is that she can know what the opportunity is, if she goes against these people, I am afraid that she will only lose.
She no longer thought about Ye Quan's affairs, and saw that Feng Shi was indeed too tired, so she couldn't help but say: "Grandmother is still going to sleep, today it is better to let the second aunt come over to help first." You're going to the capital in the afternoon, and you're tired on the way......"
Feng Shi thought about it, but it was true, and he had to go out in the afternoon. asked Mama to call the second lady over, and rosin served Feng to rest.
Jin Chao went to the study. Although Feng Shi rested, she had no reason to leave.
The second lady came in a hurry, wearing only a pair of South China Sea pearls the size of lotus seeds and rice in her ears, and no other ornaments. At this time, the people who came to greet Mrs. Tai saw that Feng Shi did not get up, and they all returned one after another. The housekeeper and the big maid came in in an endless stream.
The second lady is very skillful in handling the affairs of the inner courtyard, and it seems that she is helping a lot.
After a while, Gu Lian came over, talked to the second lady for a while, leaned on the side of the second lady, and played with the inkstone on the bookcase.
This is here in the Feng family, how could the second lady let Gu Lian be so unruly, so she said: "Why are you still relying on your mother, and you can't sit down." Put your grandmother's inkstone away. "The Chengni inkstone on that side was carved by the original old man, and the Feng family didn't want others to touch it on weekdays.
Gu Lian pursed her lips, took Feng's hand again and said, "My daughter's futon is thin, and I haven't slept well last night......"
Feng Shi felt distressed when he heard this: "Why didn't Mama Luo tell me...... Let my mother see it. "I want to test Gu Pian's forehead with my hand, for fear that she will have a headache and brain fever. Where do you remember her unruliness?
Gu Lian avoided her mother's hand, and said crisply: "My daughter doesn't have anything yet, Sister Lan is pitiful." She doesn't have anything in her own private vault, and the house hasn't given her a share yet. Last night, I slept with the satin jacket I wore in winter. It's not like some people who are pampered by everyone and have a lot of things in their hands. Anyway, her daughter felt pity for her in her heart and felt that she couldn't go. There must always be affection between these sisters......"
After hearing this, Jin Chao raised his head and saw Gu Lian looking at her coldly. I felt a little funny in my heart, what did Gu Lian mean by these words, did you want to help Gu Lan come out? This is funny, what Gu Lan did to her is like between sisters, she may not have to ignore the past suspicions, and even care about her mother's death. Gu Lan lacks something, so he can't send her anything!
This was definitely not what Gu Lan asked Gu Pian to say, she was not so stupid.
Sure enough, the second lady's face sank after hearing this, and she asked Gu Lian: "Do you want to say these words yourself, or did Sister Lan tell you?" ”
Gu Lian thought that if she said that, her mother would sympathize with Gu Lan, but who knew that her face would not look good. She sneered for a while, and then said, "It's what my daughter wants to say, Sister Lan is really pitiful." ”
But the second lady didn't believe it. She loves her young daughter, Gu Lian and Gu Lan talk together, she turns a blind eye and lets it go. But if Gu Lan dares to use her daughter as a gunman, then don't blame her for being ruthless!
The second lady asked Mama Luo to send Gu Lian back, walked to Jin Chao's side again, and said to her with a smile: "Sister Lian'er is not sensible, don't take her words at ease...... Auntie has a box of dried fruits, and I'll send them to you later. ”
Gu Jinchao naturally didn't care about Gu Lian's words: "Second aunt doesn't need to say much, Cousin Pian is still young and ignorant, and she is easy to be induced by others, so presumably these words are not what she wants to say." The second aunt should not blame her, so as not to hurt the face of the poor cousin. ”
Gu Lan sent the wrong place, she has to grasp it well.
While thinking that Gu Jinchao was sensible, Zhou was dissatisfied with Gu Lan...... How dare you instigate Gu Pitian like this! In the past few days, she has not set rules for Gu Lan...... She thinks she is a bully!
Gu Jinchao was fine, and when Feng went to the capital in the afternoon, she was idle. It just so happened that Gu Yi and Gu Xi were going to make satin jackets, so they asked her to help see the patterns. The Jin Dynasty took Caifu and Bai Yun, who were good at embroidery, over, but saw a large number of girls kneeling in the courtyard of Yixiang Courtyard.
The bluestone slab in the late autumn was extremely cold, the hibiscus took the lead and knelt, her eyes were red, and several little girls in Gu Lan's room were also crying quietly. The door of the main room where Gu Lan was located was closed.
Seeing Gu Jinchao coming in, Gu Xi poked his head out and stretched out his hand to beckon her over,
