Chapter 40: The Devil Can Grind (1)
I have no choice but to wave my hands, and it's not a big deal, just be a child and play.
However, if there is a mistake in the behavior, the punishment should still be punished.
He said in a deep voice: "Although you are my daughter, but the rules in the house cannot be messed up, from today on, you will think carefully in the plum courtyard and be grounded for half a month." ”
"Half a moon?"
Not to mention half a month, even ten days, she doesn't want to be bored in the house. What's more, there are only a few days left for the second master Liu to promise the promise, and she must go to the Liu Mansion to give them an explanation.
"Is half a month too much?" Master Gu glanced at with a squint.
Gu Qing hurriedly said: "Not much, not much." It's just father, isn't Piao Piao sick? I promised to visit her in the next few days, and I don't complain about being confined at home, but it's not good to be dishonest in front of others when the time comes?"
On the surface, it seems to be a tentative inquiry, but Gu Qing's little head is pretending to be a little clever. Master Gu especially attaches great importance to whether a person's character is good, and credibility is an indispensable thing to do things in the court, so he often teaches his children not to break their trust in others.
Gu Qing threw the question to him and asked him how to answer? On the one hand, if he repented of what he had just said, wouldn't he slap him in the face? In the future, it would be spread out, so how could he be majestic in the mansion? But if he didn't agree to her, wouldn't his previous teachings be invalid?
Seeing that Master Gu didn't say anything, Gu Qing shrugged his shoulders and smiled easily, and said: "Father, do you think this is good? You will be grounded with me for five days, in these five days, I will not go anywhere, even if it is the kitchen, I will not run more, I must obediently learn the female ring in the room, copy ancient poems, etc., if my father is not at ease, you can investigate." After five days, it will be the day I agreed with Piaopiao, and the two will not interfere. Father, what do you think?"
Master Gu rubbed his chin lightly, it was feasible to do what she said, which not only saved his face but also left him alive.
So he agreed.
Gu Qingyile asked, "That...... My daughter is going back to Meiyuan and grounded?"
Huh, Master Gu felt as if he was being played, when had he ever seen someone grounded?
Gu Qing turned around and rolled her eyes silently, then walked out of the study, and saw Butler Yu walking up head-on, I wanted to tell him about it and give him some color, but while she was still deducting money, I am afraid she would have to say good things respectfully.
"Yo, it's Steward Yu!" she walked up with a smile, Steward Yu was holding a small soup cup in his hand, which was a fish soup boiled for Master Gu, he flashed slightly, and shouted Hello, Miss.
Gu Qing lifted the lid of the cup and looked at it, the thick smell of soup came to her nose, she was a little greedy, licked her mouth and looked at the fish soup without speaking.
It was the housekeeper Yu who protected the fish soup with one hand, and took the lid back with the other hand to cover it well, for fear of being intercepted by Gu Qing.
Gu Qing said angrily: "What's the matter? Cut, who's rare?"
Twisted his head and raised his head and walked forward, walked two steps and felt indignant in his heart, turned back again, and gently patted Steward Yu, who was facing his back. Steward Yu was thinking about who it was, and as soon as he turned around, Gu Qing suddenly screamed, so frightened that he trembled three times in a row, and the soup in the cup also spilled out.
"Third Miss, you ......"
"What's wrong with me, me, me, what's wrong? It's dark, and Steward Yu doesn't look at it when he walks, and he almost bumps into me. Look, why are you spilling so much soup, do you think it's too heavy on your hand and want to lose weight?
Gu Qing didn't give Butler Yu a chance to speak at all, he talked a lot, and put all the responsibility on Butler Yu, so he stood in place and didn't know what he meant.
"Be careful next time. ”
Gu Qing deliberately teased him, and after dropping a sentence at random, he was in a good mood and swaggered away.
Master Gu heard every word of the voice outside, he held his forehead, not knowing whether to cry or laugh. It is said that a woman is virtuous if she is not talented, Gu Qing originally didn't know a single big word, but she liked to listen to books and read narrative essays, so she began to learn slowly for these.
That girl, her brain is changing rapidly, and an old man like him seems to be a little unable to keep up with her logic.
Huh? Gu Qing just said that he was going to visit Piaopiao? Didn't he say before that he didn't know Piaopiao?
——————
After five days of moldy days in the courtyard, Gu Qing finally didn't have to be grounded anymore. No, early in the morning, after getting up, she was very energetic, and she stood on the bed and pretended to practice her so-called "kung fu".
It's a buttock lift, leg press and the like.
After breakfast, I took a carriage with Ah Huan to prepare to Liufu.
It's already September, the cloudless sky looks gray, and the leaves on the side of the street are beginning to turn yellow, Gu Qing is in the carriage, thinking about how to deal with those difficult tongues in Liufu.
It's definitely not okay to be hard-hitting, and it seems that except for Piaopiao's temper, everyone else in Liufu is not so easy to deal with. Take Liu Ye as an example, no one dares to provoke her hot temper, even her father is afraid of her.
From time to time, a gust of wind blew up half of the curtain, and her face was exposed for a moment, Gu Qing only cared about the rational and orderly thinking in her mind, and did not notice any danger around her at all.
In the small teahouse on the side of the street, a big man squinted at the carriage, which he had seen in a trance.
Another big man beside him also looked into the carriage, a little uncertain and asked, "Isn't that the woman who made the boss's arm cut off?"
"Do you see clearly? is that really the woman?" asked the big man.
"I saw it clearly, it was her. ”
After receiving an affirmative answer, he remembered the pain that night when the boss screamed and rolled on the ground, the big man with fierce eyes pulled out the dagger from his waist, and secretly exerted his force under the table, and the sharp dagger flew straight to the carriage.
And his target is not the man in the carriage.
I heard a miserable horse cry looking up to the sky, and the horse raised its front hooves, and suddenly collapsed to the ground, blood flowing from its hind legs.
Gu Qing was still out of the situation at this time.
I only felt that the carriage shook all of a sudden, and finally fell to the ground half-upright, and the people inside fell repeatedly. Gu Qing couldn't help but shout, not because of the pain, but because Ah Huan, who weighed about one hundred and thirty pounds, was lying on top of her.
She only weighs about eighty pounds, and Ah Huan has one hundred and thirty pounds, the gap.
"You open it for me!" Gu Qing almost vomited blood from being pressed, and she reluctantly shouted.
Ah Huan seemed to flash her waist all of a sudden, her facial features were wrinkled together in pain, and she only felt most comfortable lying on her stomach. Hearing Gu Qing's reprimand, she slowly got up as fast as she could, supporting her waist with one hand and supporting Gu Qing who was getting up with the other.
"Miss, Miss, are you alright?"
I didn't see Gu Qingren, and I heard her voice first: "I'm fine." ”
The coachman breathed a sigh of relief. Then he checked back and forth what was wrong with the carriage, and after finding the dagger on the horse's hind legs, he raised his eyes and looked around, just in time to see the two big men by the teahouse in a trance, and then left in a hurry.
Gu Qing climbed out of the bumpy carriage and got a haircut, the carriage broke down on the street, and there were many onlookers, she couldn't embarrass the Gu Mansion.
"Look, Miss. The coachman handed over the dagger, the tip of the dagger was still warm, and the blood was still bright red.
Gu Qing took the dagger and instantly understood, so dignified, how could a dagger that knew the direction fly when the carriage was walking on the street? It turned out that someone was secretly targeting her!
The coachman said, "After I drew my dagger, I looked around, and found that two big men with burly bodies were a little strange, and they kept staring at us, and when I found them, they hid in the crowd. ”
"Burly big man?" Gu Qing frowned, she hadn't offended any big man, probably forgetting the situation that night.
"Miss, what should we do now? Are you still going to Liufu?" Ah Huan leaned on the carriage, still holding her waist with one hand, she really flashed her waist, she couldn't straighten up, she should go and prescribe a few medications, and then ask Yu Niang to approve sick leave for her.
There were many spectators on the street, and the coachman of Gu Qing Dynasty instructed: "It's good for me to go alone in Liufu, you first think of a way to move the carriage over, don't block the road." Ah Huan, you go with the coachman, go back to the house to recuperate after you settle down, and don't forget, the money for medical treatment cannot be reimbursed in the expenses of the house, because it is your waist that is too fat to be pressed, and it cannot be regarded as a work injury. ”
Gu Qing said a lot of words, Ah Huan only heard the back part, and asked her to pay for the medicine herself to ask the doctor to do it, and hurriedly asked: "Miss, I know that the hospital is short of money, but I was injured to protect you, do you feel sorry for me." ”
Now Gu Qing has something to say, a hundred and thirty pounds of weight pressed on her, she didn't complain a word, and in the end she asked her for medical expenses?
So he asked: "Ah Huanna, you know, I only have one shortcoming, and that is stinginess." In this way, you can also report it to your daily expenses, and I can only trouble and deduct it from your salary, okay?"
Speaking of which, isn't she still reasonable? Ah Huan didn't follow, and was about to open his mouth to defend himself, Gu Qing hurriedly said: "Okay, it's arranged like this, do you remember clearly, driver, I have to go to Liufu." ”
The coachman said, "I remember clearly, Miss." ”
"Miss......" Ah Huan called again with a crying voice.
Gu Qing took out a heavy money bag from his arms, checked it, looked at it very reluctantly, and then threw it to her. Ah Huan immediately caught it, and his waist didn't hurt anymore.
"Remember to pay me back. Gu Qing looked at her.
"Huh, that's interesting?" said a cold taunt from the side.
After Gu Qing saw that it was Wei Cai, his eyes shifted to the sedan chair behind him, and he couldn't help asking, "Why are you here?"
Wei Cai gave her a speechless look, waved his hand and said, "We don't want to be here either, if the carriage of your mansion hadn't been lying in the middle of the road, we might have walked into the alley in front." ”
"I'm really sorry, I blocked the prime minister's carriage, and the folk girl has arranged for someone to move the carriage, and I hope the prime minister will forgive me. Gu Qing lowered his eyebrows and said.
A crisp female voice came from the carriage opposite: "It's okay." ”
Gu Qing was stunned, this voice ...... It can't be a tassel, right?
Obviously, everyone was just as full of questions as she was, whispering underneath.
