Chapter Twenty-Seven: Eavesdropping

Gu Jinchao explained to his grandmother: "Yunxiang, the dowry girl that your mother brought to the Gu family, do you remember? ”

Ji Wu naturally nodded and said, "Yunxiang grew up with your mother since she was a child, and after your father accepted Song Miaohua, I instructed your mother to let your father accept her." Later, he carried his aunt, but he was unlucky, and the child died before he was born. ”

Jin Chao smiled: "Although my father doesn't seem to be dedicated, he doesn't like whoever he likes...... Mother said that her father liked Yunxiang very much, otherwise he would not have accepted her with a boat, and after Yunxiang became an aunt, Aunt Song also fell out of favor for a while......"

Naturally, her mother didn't tell her this, but after her mother said that, she asked Tong's mother to ask.

Grandmother looked at her with strange eyes: "Are you trying to ......?"

Jin Chao nodded: "Yun Xiang has two sisters, one is Yun Jin, Aunt Yun, and the other is Yun Yan, I heard that she married the son of the county Cheng as a concubine. I just want to find the daughter born to Yun Yan. Thinking that if the appearance is similar, my father may be moved by the old love. Otherwise, at this time, my father would not take a concubine casually, not for his official career, and Aunt Song would also object. ”

The grandmother was silent for a moment before she said, "I'll call Aunt Yun over tomorrow, and you ask her where that Yun Yan got married, if the daughter she gave birth to hasn't been married yet, she can take it back directly." The granddaughter of a county is not inconvenient......"

She wanted to say that if the other party did not agree, she would use her power to suppress people, whether it was the Ji family or the Gu family, a small county could not afford it. What's more, being able to take advantage of this family business is too beneficial for a county lord who is about to leave office.

Gu Jinchao likes his grandmother's neat personality very much.

After telling Ji Wu's about this, Gu Jinchao's heart was also a little relaxed, she was also a little afraid that her grandmother would not support her before she came, but now it seems that it is the same as when she was a child, once she says something, her grandmother will not object.

Seeing that the sky was dark, Jin Chao helped Ji Wu to go to the Weeping Flower Hall for dinner. After eating, Gu Jinrong even chatted with Ji Yun very speculatively, and talked about the reading method that Zhu Shengren said.

Ji Yun is very knowledgeable, and he is not arrogant because of his youth. Speaking smoothly and unhurriedly, but instead quoting scriptures, it is wonderful.

He said that Zhu Shengren was different from others: "If you want to talk about Zhu Shengren's achievements, I don't think the most important thing is science, Zhu Shengren has done a good job in science, but his actions are often violated, and it is difficult to convince others...... Confucianism is still the best. But compared to Confucius and Mencius, Brother Rong likes to read Zhu Sage's things, but it is better to read more books of Confucius and Mencius, and he is also very good at the eight-strand system......"

Gu Jinrong felt strange: "Why did Zhu Shengren act against reason?" ”

Ji Yun coughed, his face was slightly red, and he didn't continue to speak, but instead led the topic to something else.

Gu Jinchao glanced at him more, thinking that this Ji Yun looked rigid and wooden, but he didn't expect to read Ye Shi...... Legend has it that although Zhu Shengren emphasized that 'the principles of heaven are preserved, and the desires of people are destroyed. But he seduced two nuns to be concubines, and had an affair with his daughter-in-law, and his words and deeds were inconsistent, which was criticized.

After eating, Ji Wu asked Ji Yao to go to the Shixian Building to discuss matters, and Jin Chao went to his grandmother's yard to wait for her first, but because he was too tired to sleep on the Luohan bed. When she was conscious, she saw the warm red light coming in through the window, and she was covered with a blue moire brocade quilt.

She half-sat up, but found no one in the inner room, but there was a voice outside the room.

“…… It's so worry-free! It was my grandmother's voice, and it sounded a little angry.

Jin Chao lifted the corner of the curtain and looked out, it was Ji Wu and Song's mother who were standing under the corridor and talking.

Mother Song comforted her: "You also have to give the second young master a little time, after all, this matter is too sudden for him." ”

Grandmother's voice was cold: "Isn't there much time?" He and Sister Chao have almost grown up together since childhood. If you talk about who is most familiar with Sister Chao, he is also one of them. I thought he was willing to be obedient all these years, but who knows that he is still a rebel! ”

Mother Song sighed, and after a long time, she said softly: "Mrs. Tai, the slave maid has been watching it for so many years...... In fact, I don't really understand that Miss Biao is very favored in our Ji family, and you are even more indulgent to her...... If you've heard what people outside say about Miss Biao, you'll understand why the second young master didn't agree......

Jin Chao's heart tightened when he heard this, if even Song's mother knew about the rumors about her from the outside world, then her grandmother should also know. But how did his own affairs get involved with the second cousin, and what does this have to do with the second cousin?

It was a long time before she heard her grandmother's voice: "Of course I do...... When Han'er grew up beside me, I didn't have the heart to take care of her, so the original Mrs. Tai was raised weak and weak, and I didn't dare to do anything. After marrying Gu Dezhao, Gu Dezhao has had so many aunts and rooms, has she ever competed? Back then, just by the words of the Qingxu Daoist, Sister Chao had to leave her mother's side and be raised by me! Before she could go back, her father had a second and third daughter......"

"When Sister Chao'er was five years old, I took her back, at that time, Han'er just had Brother Rong, and Gu Dezhao had a well-behaved and sensible Gu Lan under her knees, and no one wanted to hug her. When I went for a walk and came back, my sister hid in the dark room alone, and I didn't dare to go out...... I thought at the time, I would never let others bully my sister. After coming back, I spoiled her doubly, and I couldn't bear to see her a little wronged......"

When Mother Song heard this, her heart was already sour: "I know that you love Sister Chao'er, I watched Sister Chao'er grow up, and I also know that our Sister Chao'er is actually a pure-minded person...... But what can she do in the future......"

My grandmother sighed: "So I have already thought about it, when Sister Chao'er reaches the age, I will let Brother Yao marry her, under my nose, I see who dares to bully her." ”

Mother Song said again: "Then you haven't thought about it...... If the second young master is unwilling......"

Grandmother sneered: "He didn't want to take care of these things of the Ji family before, isn't he doing a good job now?" He was also brought up by me, I know his personality, as long as I force him to agree, he will not regret it, he will try to do the best he can. That's why I dare to hand over my sister to him with confidence......"

After that, he sighed again: "It's a pity, I want to protect my sister Chao'er." But everyone who cares about the family is unwilling to ...... Sister Chao told me those things today, and I thought about how she could have understood these calculations in the first place. Someone must have bullied her......"

Gu Jinchao lowered the curtain and slowly walked to the stove, his face could not hide the shock.

She held the screen with one hand, and covered her mouth with the other, already bursting into tears.

She only thought that her grandmother doted on her, but she didn't expect that in fact, her grandmother had already designed her path, and she wanted to protect her sister for the rest of her life.

Gu Jinchao's thoughts spun quickly, then, some things she couldn't understand in her previous life had ample explanations at this moment!

A month before her mother's death, Guillo proposed to her father.

She was very puzzled at the time, her second cousin didn't like her on weekdays, and she was no different from others. It turned out that he came to propose to her on the orders of his grandmother, so that is to say, Ji Yao would still be persuaded by his grandmother later.

…… Also, how did Ji Yao resist his grandmother's means!

No wonder, even the third cousin already has a wife, and the children are one year old. The second cousin is the eldest son, but he doesn't even have a concubine, this is prepared for her!

The faint doubts about his grandmother in Jin Chao's heart also dissipated.

In her previous life, she had Chen Xuanqing in her heart, and she liked him with her eyes, just waiting for him to take a look at herself...... I am very happy to be able to look at myself! So when Ji Yao came to the door to propose, her father asked her about her wishes, and she refused without mercy. Later, Ji Yao married the third lady of Yongyang Bofu, and the couple had a deep love and harmony.

Fortunately, she refused, so as not to embarrass Ji Yao. Jin Chao felt ridiculous when he thought about it, her reputation in her previous life was extremely prosperous, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she was famous in Yanjing, but she didn't even have a person who really liked her, which was really sad.

Hearing the footsteps approaching, Jin Chao lay back on the Luohan bed. Grandmother walked in, first helped her tuck the quilt, then wiped her face, and whispered to Mother Song: "Why does this child ...... like he has cried?"

"Maybe I remembered the sad thing......

Mother Song's voice was also very soft.

Grandmother was inevitably distressed: "Han'er is seriously ill now...... Sister Chao has to protect herself, I just hope that Aunt Yun's niece is not married, and everything will be easy to say......"
