Chapter 80: The Unexpected (I)
The Autumn Festival was coming soon, and the people in Beyuan obediently stayed in the garden under Gu Xiyan's ban, and a few newly bought girls were handed over to Mama Zhao for training. Everyone can also understand, after all, three days later, it will be Gu Xiyan's wedding, and it is normal for the people in her house to hide and not see anyone.
The red wedding dress is embroidered with gold thread with a golden phoenix, and the colorful silk thread emits a broken color with the swing of the body, which is bright and dazzling.
Gu Xiyan was lazily leaning on the couch beside him: "Beautiful, right?" ”
Whelan looked at the wedding dress on her body and nodded excitedly.
Xinghong's face was full of fear: "Girl, if you find out ......"
"Don't worry." Gu Xiyan said with a smile, "I have inquired carefully, what Zuo Xiaoyu wants is the marriage of the Zuo Gu family, and who is married, I think it doesn't matter to him at all." As long as you keep your duty, whether it is Master Gu or the Imperial Concubine, even if you find out, you will only desperately find a way to cover up the past. ”
Her words reminded Duan Yingluo of Qi Hao, the Duke of Yan Guo.
Qi Hao didn't need to marry the Gu family, why did he send her to the Gu Mansion in a hurry.
Duan Yingluo couldn't help laughing and said: "The girl has outstanding appearance, maybe Zuo Xiaoyu ......"
Hearing this, Gu Xiyan waved his hand like a fly and mosquito, interrupting Duan Yingluo's words: "I still have self-knowledge. is a heavenly immortal, and he can't let people like Jiang and Zuo stand up to each other, which is a necessary reason. It's just that I don't have the heart to look it up right now! ”
Over there, Huilan looked at the self-satisfied self in the mirror table wholeheartedly, and her expression was resolute: "Second girl, don't worry." When Zuo Xiaoyu saw you that day, I was also in the carriage, if he had any doubts, we only had to deny it, saying that he had seen the wrong person and treated the maid as a girl, and he had no choice. It was this complaint that came to the Imperial Front. It's also unclear......"
Xinghong winced and looked at Huilan, and then at Gu Xiyan. My heart was filled with fear.
If I knew this, I should have gone with Mo Ju!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Gu Xiyan.
Could it be that the second girl started planning a long time ago......
Duan Niang took the second girl as if she was careful. would have left before she got married, and Mo Ju, that aunt came so suddenly......
But now it's too late to think about this, and there is no turning back......
Unless, tell Madame to go......
She looked at Gu Xiyan uneasily, then at Huilan, and suddenly felt like a puppet in the hands of these two people. They were holding it in their hands and pulling it around......
After the Autumn Festival, the red lanterns in Gufudi were not taken down in time as in previous years, and they had to be used again at Gu Xiyandi's wedding three days later. The main gate of Gu's mansion was wide open, and Master Gu and Mrs. Gu knelt in front of the incense case and listened to the announcement of the little yellow door. The rewards of the emperor and the imperial concubine were lined up in front of the door, but unfortunately the Gu Mansion lived in a high-end residential area. The surrounding neighbors are either rich or expensive, and the area of the mansion is not small, and there are seven or eight houses living in a square, and the gate is far away. There are fewer people watching the excitement, which inevitably reduces a few joys.
After receiving the gift and sending away the little yellow door, Master Gu was going to enter the palace to thank him, and Mrs. Gu hurried to the garden. She also has to arrange the wedding day and the escort person. Halfway through, I met Xinghong, saying that the second girl invited Mrs. Gu to go, the wedding was imminent, and there were emergencies everywhere. Mrs. Gu had no bottom in her heart. He hurriedly turned around and went to Beyuan.
When he arrived at Beyuan, Gu Xiyan wrote something on the small table in front of the big couch. Seeing Mrs. Gu come in, she said curiously, "Mother, is there something looking for me?" ”
The bottle hurriedly stepped forward to collect the paper, waited for Mrs. Gu to sit down, and came in with tea.
Mrs. Gu's expression was a little unnatural, she took a sip of tea lightly, and said, "Are you almost ready here?" ”
Gu Xiyan looked at Mrs. Gu opposite, although she was only twenty-seven or eight years old, she was in a state of beauty from her face to her state, and there was a gloomy color between her eyebrows for many years, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
I am about to leave, and to use an inappropriate analogy, a man is about to die, and his words are also good.
Gu Xiyan made a gesture towards the bottle, motioning for them all to go out. When only the two of them were left in the room, Gu Xiyan couldn't help but take Mrs. Gu's hand and said meaningfully: "Mother, you have worked too hard. When I get married, you can go back to Jiangnan with Panxi. There are your brothers and sisters-in-law, and there is Gao Tang, even if it is noisy, it is more comfortable than here......"
Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Xiyan in surprise.
Now that the words have been said to this point, Gu Xiyan simply made the words clear: "I went to the outer courtyard to see Panxi a few days ago. A small person, such a tall desk, sitting up straight, practicing big characters there. The person who was waiting next to him was fanning on the side, and kept persuading his brother to take a break, and then practice again, Panxi hesitated, and told someone that my mother had instructed me to listen to Mr., Mr. asked me to write eight pieces of paper, and I only wrote three pieces of paper, and the little guy flattered him, and my brother rested, and I helped my brother write, so that Mr. couldn't see it...... It's a good child, and if it goes on like this, it's all ruined. Mother, he's your hope for the future, you can't let people make such a mess......"
Mrs. Gu's eyes slowly turned red when she heard this, and a bitter smile appeared on her yellow face.
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but think of the peaceful and peaceful appearance when she first saw her.
As a woman, she may not be able to experience the taste of the chorus of the piano in her life, just like a flower that withers before it blooms.
is also a woman, Gu Xiyan's heart is full of pity. Her tone of voice was sincere and sincere: "Panxi is pure and kind in nature, and at a young age, he already has the perseverance to study. Jiangnan is full of famous teachers, and if you have worked hard for ten years, you will also see the end. Mother, go back to Jiangnan as soon as possible! ”
Mrs. Gu turned her face sideways, and tears fell like rain.
On August 17, when the lantern was in hand, Mrs. Gu and Mama Tian arrived at Beyuan, and they took Gu Panxi with them for the first time.
Because tomorrow is the day of the wedding, the two masters who were invited from Tifangzhai to bathe the bride are helping Gu Xiyan take a bath, Mrs. Gu looked at the empty house and asked Huilan: "Have you packed all your things?" She refers to the small objects that Gu Xiyan is used to using on weekdays.
Whelan smiled and put on a small wicker box on the big couch and said, "Everything is here." ”
Mrs. Gu was stunned.
When she got married, she received more than a dozen wicker boxes.
"Why is there only one box!" Mrs. Gu blurted out.
Huilan smiled: "The girl is not very particular about weekdays, only this box of things. ”
Mrs. Gu opened the wicker box and took a look. There are only some things like mirrors, combs, and silk scarves that you use on a daily basis. Only then did she realize how simple Gu Xiyan's daily life was. It was as if he could leave as soon as he cleaned up.
She couldn't help but be in a trance.
Gu Xiyan had already taken a shower and came out of the ear room next to him.
She was dressed in simple white muslin trousers, and her blue hair was wet and haphazardly curled on her head, probably because of the heat in the auricular bath. The plain face and cheeks are slightly drunk, the big eyes are full of moisture, and there is a trace of natural beauty between the eyes.
She saluted Mrs. Gu, and the four masters sent by Tifangzhai also came out of the ear room to salute Mrs. Gu, and Mama Tian gave each of the four masters a red seal, and the masters thanked and wanted to leave, but Mrs. Gu said: "It's rare for the masters to come once." It's better to help the girls who accompany the girl to take a soup bath. Whelan, Apricot Red and Bottle, you all go and prepare! ”
Everyone was stunned, only apricot red, and their complexion changed greatly.
Mrs. Gu smiled: "Girl, this is the last night in the Gu family. You don't have to stick to this etiquette. As he spoke, he asked Mama Tian to take out a few more red seals.
The masters of Tifangzhai took Feng Hong and went to prepare, while Mama Tian took a few girls down, and only Mrs. Gu, Gu Xiyan and Gu Panxi, who had been sitting on the side like little adults, were left in the room.
Mrs. Gu asked Gu Panxi to kowtow to Gu Xiyan: "Your sister is leaving, and I don't know when we will meet again." You should kowtow to your sister a few times. Remember to study hard, and you must be promising, so that your sister can return to her parents' house in the future. ”
Gu Panxi stared at her sister curiously with her round black elephant jewel eyes, and obediently knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Gu Xiyan.
Gu Xiyan didn't wait for Gu Panxi to kneel down and hugged him in his arms: "Don't get your clothes dirty." ”
Mrs. Gu looked at the two sisters and brothers who were hugging each other with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said, "After sending you out tomorrow." The seventh brother is going back to Jiangnan. They would take the post road out of Beijing, pass through Songzhou and Jingzhou, and then turn to the waterway in Changping, Victoria, and follow the Jiangnan Canal all the way to Yuezhou. You don't know my hometown, in Shiban Town, Yuezhou, which is only more than 500 miles away from the Gu family's old house in Shuzhou. Very close......" She explained Liu Zuocheng's whereabouts in great detail.
Gu Xiyan's heart moved. looked at Mrs. Gu in disbelief.
Mrs. Gu smiled slightly, and shouted "Mama Sun" with a bright expression.
Grandma Sun quickly responded.
Mrs. Gu got up and touched Gu Panxi's face. There was a reluctant look in his demeanor: "Panxi, you go with Grandma Sun!" ”
Gu Panxi respectfully saluted her mother and sister respectively, and then followed Grandma Sun out of Beyuan in three steps, the orange light pulled a long shadow on the small body, looking extremely lonely.
Gu Xiyan burst into tears, and shouted "Mother" in anticipation.
Mrs. Gu smiled, but there were tears in her eyes: "Deacon Ding and Grandma Sun will take Panxi back to Jiangnan tonight, and he won't be able to give you a wedding tomorrow." ”
Gu Xiyan couldn't help but say, "What about you?" ”
Mrs. Gu looked at the red lanterns hanging under the eaves of Beyuan, and said with a smile: "I still have to preside over your three-day return ceremony!" ”
Gu Xiyan excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Mrs. Gu's hand, the corners of her mouth slightly twitched. Mrs. Gu patted Gu Xiyan's hand comfortingly: "Don't worry, I'm so big, I haven't had an idea yet." This time, I will definitely make a good return ceremony. As he spoke, he patted Gu Xiyan's hand again, with a rare insistence in his eyes.
