Chapter 59: Marriage
Madame Li and Qi had been waiting for them. When he saw them coming back, he hurriedly got up and greeted them.
Mrs. Li hugged the old lady and said with a smile: "The old lady is tired, right?" I asked people to stew Chuanbei Sydney pears, and the old lady drank a bowl of mats first. β
Qi hurriedly poured the tea, and then stuffed the cushion behind the old lady, so that the old lady could sit more comfortably.
Mrs. Li naturally saw that the old lady was in a bad mood, and she had the heart to inquire at the moment, so she said, "Old lady, how is Concubine Rong lately?" β
The old lady didn't bother to deal with Mrs. Li, she just opened her eyes and glanced at her sharply, "If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person." βγ
Mrs. Li was taken aback, and suddenly her face was a little sneering.
In fact, Mrs. Li is also innocent - it was nothing for her to ask this, but the old lady was in a bad mood at this time, and with the matter of the carriage, she was already angry in her heart. Mrs. Li bumped into it herself, so naturally she couldn't please her.
Mrs. Li sat on the chair with a handkerchief and looked at Gu Wanyin gloomily. Today, the old lady only brought Gu Wanyin into the palace, and she already felt angry. At this time, he ate a closed door again, and he was plain and faceless, so he was naturally even more annoyed. She felt that all this was caused by Gu Wanyin, a nasty girl.
Gu Yingyin, who was on the side, saw that the old lady was angry, and didn't want to watch Mrs. Li suffer, so she hurriedly stepped forward to hammer the old lady's shoulder, and said softly while hammering: "Grandmother, don't be angry, it's not good to be angry." If something doesn't go your way, let your granddaughter do it. β
Gu Yingyin originally wanted to please the old lady, but she didn't expect the old lady to suddenly open her eyes when she heard thisβand then looked at Gu Yingyin for a long time.
Gu Yingyin's scalp suddenly tingled when she saw it.
Gu Wanyin saw all this clearly, because she knew the cause and effect of this matter, so it was not difficult to guess the old lady's mind at this time. Seeing Gu Yingyin's reaction at the moment, he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips at the moment. I couldn't help but think in my heart: If Gu Yingyin knew the old lady's thoughts, I don't know what would happen at this time?
Presumably, you can't wait to run away immediately, right?
After a long time, the old lady finally withdrew her gaze from Gu Yingyin's body, but she sighed, shook her head and said, "You can't do it." β
Originally, when the old lady heard Gu Yingyin's words, she suddenly felt that she might be able to let Gu Yingyin go instead of Gu Wanyin...... But what is the identity of the other party? With a daughter like them, it is already rare for a daughter to be a concubine. What's more, it's a concubine? Although Gu Yingyin is also a rare beauty, she is afraid that the Queen Mother will not look down on her temperament.
That's why the old lady finally made such an exclamation.
When Gu Yingyin heard this, her face immediately turned a little red, and at the same time, a resentment welled up in her heart, and she couldn't help but glance at Gu Wanyin.
Gu Wanyin pretended not to see Gu Yingyin's knife-like eyes, picked up the teacup and took a sip. Then he got up slowly and said to the old lady, "Grandmother, I'm a little tired and want to go back and freshen up." β
The old lady waved her hand: "Go." β
Gu Wanyin owed Mrs. Li slightly, and then withdrew.
As soon as he left the door, Danzhi immediately lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong?" β
Gu Wanyin shook her head: "I don't know." Everything can only depend on the meaning of the Queen Mother. β
Danzhi was silent for a moment.
When she returned to her yard, Gu Wanyin immediately asked Danzhi to freshen her up and return to her usual simple dress. After freshening up, he leaned back on the soft couch, lazily not wanting to move.
Danzhi held a famous post to show her: "This is a famous post sent by the Zhou family, the king of Zhennan." It was said that it was the fourth lady of their family and the lady, and asked the young lady to come over to watch the ceremony. β
Gu Wanyin was stunned for a moment, and involuntarily raised her eyebrows to look at the payment below the name postβand then suddenly realized: It turned out to be Zhou Yufei.
But I didn't expect that Zhou Yufei, who had a good relationship with one side and didn't have a good relationship, would invite her to go on such an important matter.
"Go?" Danzhi asked softly.
Gu Wanyin nodded: "How can you not go?" How can the Zhou family of Zhennan Wang not give face? "The most important thing is that if you don't go, Zhou Yufei must be very disappointed, right?
Thinking of Zhou Yufei's timid expression, she always had a feeling of empathy. Subconsciously, she hopes that Zhou Yufei can be happy and not be depressed like her.
Danzhi nodded: "I'll go and prepare clothes and jewelry." What should I give? β
After looking down and thinking for a moment, Gu Wanyin finally thought of a suitable one, and said with a smile: "I remember that there is a set of jade carvings of the Four Gentlemen in the warehouse, so let's send that." β
Danzhi was stunned for a moment, and his face was a little hesitant: "Will it be too valuable?" Miss, you're the favoriteβ"
Gu Wanyin shook her head: "It's because I like it the most that I want to give it to her." These four gentlemen mean something different to me, and I think it's the same for Miss Zhou. β
What she learned from the four gentlemen, maybe Zhou Yufei also needs it.
Although Danzhi still didn't understand, he nodded and retreated.
Gu Wanyin looked at Danzhi's figure and smiled slightly. She reuses and trusts Danzhi, not only because Danzhi is absolutely loyal, but also because Danzhi is very smart and sensible.
Danzhi retreated, and she leaned back on the chaise longue to rest. I walked in the palace, and I was mentally tense all the time, so I was extremely tired.
I couldn't help but think of the Queen Mother's meaningful words today, and said that I was not worried that it would be false.
After all, even if you are a prince, what if you can become a great treasure in the future? If it's not Mrs. Masamu, she doesn't want it. What's more, what she wants is not a powerful or noble status. Rather, knowing her heart and mind, she can protect her for the rest of her life. It's best to be able to do it from the beginning.
is used to seeing Gu Changfei's absurdity, and she knows more about the preciousness of being willing to be a single-minded person.
Perhaps, her ideas are a little unrealistic, some too naΓ―ve, too idealistic. But she thought she would meet someone like that. In order to have that opportunity, she will not give in.
It's like today's performance in front of the Queen Mother.
The concubine of the fourth prince is the niece and granddaughter of the queen mother's family. What's more, this niece and granddaughter lived in the palace for a few years when she was a child, and she heard that the queen mother loved her the most, even more than several princesses. The reason why it is rumored that the four princes will ascend to the great treasure in the future is also because of this.
One is the favorite prince of the saint, and the other is the most beloved niece and granddaughter of the queen mother, and the two are combined. The meaning of the heavenly family seems to be obvious.
So, she took a gamble. The bet is the Queen Mother's love for the concubine. She deliberately dressed up today, coupled with the sharp edge of her deliberate performance, just to let the Queen Mother understand that she is not only beautiful, but also ambitious.
If the Queen Mother really loved the concubine, she would not pick her. Otherwise, if there is a competition for favor in the future, the concubine will be wronged, and the gains will outweigh the losses. Since ancient times, when choosing concubines, everyone chooses those who can be held tightly in their hands.
Although Gu Wanyin knew in her heart that the Queen Mother might have changed her mind, she still couldn't be completely relieved. After all, Concubine Rong is the driving force in it. Moreover, the Queen Mother's mind is not necessarily as she figured it out.
So, it's a big gamble. Bet on a lifetime.
However, it is better to have a chance to gamble than to give in easily. In that case, there would be no chance at all.
In fact, Gu Yingyin is more suitable than her, maybe Gu Yingyin herself will be willing to go. It's a pity that Gu Yingyin's identity is ......
As the daughter of a big family, it is fortunate but sad. Their marriage is used as a bargaining chip, and there is no room for independent choice when marrying with other families.
Gu Wanyin thought about it, but she fell asleep in a daze. Somehow, she dreamed that she was sitting in a sedan chair in a bright red wedding dress, and suddenly, it seemed like she had returned to the time when she got married before.
When the sedan chair stopped, she heard the call of a child, and suddenly she was terrified and screamed bitterly: "No! β
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Danzhi hurriedly rushed in, and seeing Gu Wanyin's frightened face and constantly struggling, he hurriedly stepped forward to push her awake: "Miss, it's just a dream, it's just a dream." β
Gu Wanyin woke up suddenly, staring at Danzhi's face with her eyes open, and it took a while to come to her senses. Glancing around at the familiar environment, her heart slowly settled.
That's right, it's a dream, just a dream. It's just a dream of the past. Gu Wanyin pressed her wildly beating chest and kept telling herself. It's just that today's events reminded her of the past.
She is no longer the Gu Wanyin she used to be, no more. This time, no one will be able to marry her to a fool again, no one. Lady Leigh couldn't, for she was no longer in control of her fate. On the contrary, it was she who single-handedly caused the old lady's disappointment and disgust with Mrs. Li, so that Mrs. Li was unable to correct her wishes.
When she finally calmed down for a long time, she realized that she was already covered in cold sweat.
"Danzhi, let people bring water in, I want to bathe." Gu Wanyin stroked the broken hair in her ear, gasped slightly, and then ordered.
Before leaving, Danzhi leaned in and whispered a word in her ear. "Today, Mrs. Li went to Qi's house and stayed for half an hour before coming out. When she came out, Mrs. Lee had a smile on her face. And Qi Shi seems to be in a good mood. β
After hearing this, Gu Wanyin was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly smiled. It's just that his smile is a little cold, and even his gaze is sharpβQi's family, Mrs. Li, what are you up to in mind?
But looking at it this way, Mrs. Li finally couldn't sit still.
β¦β¦
As soon as Mrs. Li and Gu Yingyin returned to their house, Mrs. Li couldn't help but lose her temper, kicked a girl who came forward to serve, and said hatefully: "Cheap little hoof, I really don't know what to do!" Someday, I'll let you know how good I am! I don't know if I'm scolding the girl or the person she thinks in her heart.
When the girl heard this, she immediately shrank her head in fright, and fled as if she were flying.
Gu Yingyin stepped forward and smiled: "What is my mother doing when she is angry?" That slut is going to get married soon, and the family won't be in charge of the family at that time? β
Mrs. Li thought about it and smiled, and then said, "Why are you saying that decently?" If the old lady really agreed to let you go, then how could it be? β
Gu Yingyin smiled coldly: "Mother is too careful, you forgot, she is a young lady, how can such a good thing be my daughter?" Besides, it would be nice if the old lady agreed! With my means, are you still worried about being bullied? Maybe in the future, when the four princes become the great treasure, I can still be the queen! β
Mrs. Li smiled slightly, reached out and patted the back of Gu Yingyin's hand and comforted: "Don't worry, you will definitely marry better than that girl in the future." She is small with people this time, and she is a nail in the iron plate. Have you forgotten, what Concubine Rong said in the letter? β
Gu Yingyin smiled coldly, and the viciousness in her eyes flashed away.
