Gu Changhong was naturally willing. Just remembering the old lady's own meaning, he couldn't help but hesitate again: "The old lady is only afraid of it?"

Li pondered for a moment, "No matter what, you have to give it a try." Even if the old lady is unwilling, it can be regarded as fulfilling our filial piety. The old man said yes? "Now that there is no management in the second room, the old lady's illness is really embarrassing. Who will take care of the old lady? Who's going to take care of this mess? There is only one concubine in the second room of the Gu family now, is it possible to let one concubine take care of it?

That's a thing, too.

Thinking of this, Li only felt a terrible headache. The old lady can't take care of things now, and the Qi family can't use it, and there is only one way left—that is, she went over to help.

To be honest, Li is not willing to go over to help - to manage the feed, it must be used by some means and ruthlessly. If it's just your own family, after all, it's a righteous housewife, who dares to complain? But what about the second room? If the name is not right, it is loosely managed, and it has no effect, but it is tightly managed?

Who wants to do such a thankless task?

It's just that now she can't shirk it. In the past, after all, when Gu Wanyin was not married, she could still shirk one or two, but now she ...... Li sighed secretly, and couldn't help but quietly complain in his heart.

Gu Changhong didn't know what Li was thinking, so he only said that she was filial, so he softened his voice and said gratefully: "It's hard for Mrs. You think." In that case, we will ask the old lady tomorrow what she means. ”

"Hmm. It's late at night, and Master Ming'er has to go to the yamen, go to sleep. Li pursed his lips and smiled, and gently turned around to prepare footwashing water for Gu Changhong.

To be honest, Li has been extremely satisfied all these years. The family was separated early, she was in charge of her family's middle feed, and her children were also sensible and filial. Gu Changhong is even more elegant and elegant. The two of Fuqi are also harmonious. If it weren't for the bad things on the other side of the second room from time to time, it would be perfect. But so it is, the ladies with whom she has fellowship. Which one doesn't envy her?

On the second day, Gu Changhong and Fuqi really told the old lady about it.

It's just that unexpectedly, it just started. The old lady refused: "I'm used to living, and I'll die here." Why do you have to move it around? The eldest and the eldest daughter-in-law. I understand the filial piety of the two of you. Don't talk about it again. ”

Gu Changhong had already been prepared, so he was not disappointed, but he was faintly unhappy in his heart. One mother is a compatriot, and the second is always more favored by his mother, but what about him? Even now, my mother is still biased towards the second child!

But this is something that cannot be said in any way, and he sighed at the moment. Not a word.

Instead, the old lady struggled to sit up and asked, "How is Cong Qi?" ”

Li Shi hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Don't worry, old lady, Cong Qi is fine." Most of the injuries on his body are healed. ”

"What about the Yang family?" The old lady asked again, but her expression was a little calmer, not as anxious. "Concubine Rong can exert her strength?"

Li hesitated for a moment, and finally said with a smile: "I haven't let go for the time being, but I'm not as aggressive as a few days ago;." Thinking about it, Concubine Rong has put a lot of effort into it. Coupled with the apology from our side, I guess it's over. "The old lady can't stand the stimulation now, and there are some things that still don't talk about well.

The old lady nodded with satisfaction: "In the end, it is the daughter of the Gu family who went out, and the Gu family is in trouble." I can always help. And you, I know that this matter is not so easy to stop, and I know your hard work very well in my heart. Cong Qi also understands. I will always be filial to you in the future. ”

Li's eyes flashed, and he lowered his head and smiled: "It's all a family, and the old lady said that these daughters-in-law are going to die of shame." ”

If the old lady knew, Concubine Rong rejected her with just one sentence, and she didn't know how to be sad. As for the Yang family, if it weren't for the Zhou family's secret efforts this time and asked a few important members of the court to help clarify it, where would the Yang family be so easy to relax? How can the Qi family give up?

"Where's the second girl?" The old lady asked again, frowning: "I haven't seen her come back for a few days." Cong Qi is her own brother. In the words, there was a complaint.

Li froze. Then he sighed and said in a low voice: "After I went back that day, I also fell ill." The old lady of the Zhou family felt sorry for her, so she was not allowed to go out. But it's always time to ask. ”

"Oh." The old lady's face softened, "That's the case." I said that since she was a child, she loves her brother the most, how can this be the case this time? Since she is sick, she is no wonder. In this case, you go to my library and get some medicinal herbs and send them. ”

"Yes." Li Shi responded, but sighed for Gu Wanyin in his heart. The second girl was really dragged down by the Gu family. Even though she married a good husband, how could her in-laws treat her? If it weren't for that, Mrs. Zhou wouldn't have detained people in the house like this and wouldn't have allowed them to come out.

The old lady has always been eccentric, and the fault of her sons and grandsons cannot be seen, but these granddaughters ...... Rao is this time, she heard what happened to Gu Wanyin after she came back with Gu Congqi that day, and today she heard the old lady say this, and she couldn't help but feel that it was not worth it for the second girl. This time, the old lady was really biased.

However, it is precisely because of this incident that the Li family has a sense of pride - what the old lady didn't expect was that she, the eldest aunt, wanted to make a good decision for her niece. Let the Zhou family know that although the Gu family is not as good as the Zhou family, the daughter of the Gu family is not able to be bullied by others.

Thinking like this, after coming out of the old lady's house, Li asked people to set up a carriage, and personally selected a few wild ginseng from the treasury to wrap them carefully, and matched them with some supplements, and then went straight to Zhou's house.

……

When the old lady of the Zhou family heard that someone from the Gu family was coming, she frowned immediately. But everyone is here, and they are in-laws, but it is not easy not to welcome in. immediately asked the second wife to personally welcome Li to her house. He also instructed the third wife to come and accompany him.

As for Gu Wanyin, the old lady didn't have the slightest intention of letting her come over.

The Li family has always been very popular in Beijing, and I don't know how much Gu Changhong has helped over the years. She treats people and things, so she naturally has some experience. So although I don't like the second wife at the moment, my face is also leaky, and I get along with the second wife eagerly.

It wasn't until he entered the house that Li Shi looked up and saw the old lady and the third wife, but he didn't even see Gu Wanyin's shadow, and he understood it in his heart, and he couldn't help sneering in his heart at the moment, knowing the old lady's thoughts well.

It seems that Mrs. Zhou really doesn't want them to come into contact with Gu Wanyin; Probably, are you afraid that they want the Zhou family to help?

"The old lady is blessed with longevity and good health." Li stepped forward with a smile to greet the old lady.

The old lady smiled kindly: "Thank you for your good words." ”

"I got a few good old ginseng before, and the old lady ate it very well." Li said with a smile as he opened the box and showed the ginseng.

Rao is old lady, and she couldn't help but nod her head in admiration: "It's so big, it must have been more than a hundred years." There are not many such ginseng in the palace. ”

The third lady also "giggled" and laughed: "I can be regarded as having opened my eyes today, and this is the first time I have seen such a good ginseng." ”

"What did the third brother and sister say about this?" The second wife also laughed kindly, and joked softly: "Who doesn't know that you also have a medicinal herb shop at home?" I heard that I used to send medicinal herbs to the palace. I don't believe you haven't seen it. ”

has been an imperial businessman, but he can't escape the word businessman. was pointed out by the second wife in person, Li thought that the third wife should be uncomfortable, but he saw that the third wife did not feel the slightest discomfort on her face, but laughed even louder: "The second sister-in-law's words are not right." It's true that my mother's family has a medicinal herb shop, but can I stand on the shop and go to see it? Where have you seen the door without going out of the gate? If you want to talk about knowledge, the second sister-in-law, people like you, I'm afraid that they are much better than me. ”

The second wife smiled slightly, and a hint of pride appeared on her face. On the family room, how does the third wife compare with her?

Seeing that the third wife was not annoyed or angry, but naturally flattered the second wife generously, he was a little surprised in his heart. Immediately, there was a condensation in my heart - these three wives, if they are either really open-minded, they are scheming.

"By the way, why don't you see Wanyin?" Li Shi looked around and said in deliberate surprise, as if he had just discovered.

The old lady gave the second lady a look.

The second wife spoke: "Wanyin's body is a little uncomfortable, so I didn't let people inform her." I thought I would let her take a good rest. ”

Li Shi smiled slightly: "It's her blessing that you love Wanyin like this." After a pause, he added, "I just don't know how sick she is?" Why don't I take a look? Just when I thought that although she was young, her body was also weak, I brought some supplements to her, and sent them over. ”

The second wife's eyes flashed, "I'm afraid that at this time, she has just taken medicine and has fallen asleep." ”

"Oh?" Li raised his eyebrows and frowned, "You'll be asleep this time?" Isn't it that you can't sleep well at night? As I say, it's better to rest at night. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Mrs. Zhou with a smile: "Old lady, did you say it?" She didn't believe it, and the old lady couldn't let her go to see people. Although Gu Wanyin is married, she shouldn't bully people like this. The in-laws next to you, which one is not the same branch? But the old lady of the Zhou family ...... Hmph, I didn't even come to the door to ask, and I was too indifferent. If it weren't for Zhou Ruijing's sake, she would have asked carefully!

The old lady looked kind: "That's the same reason." As he spoke, he looked at the second and third wives: "You will accompany your in-laws' wives on a trip, I am too old to be lazy, so I won't join in the fun with you." I met Jing's daughter-in-law and told her for me. During this time, she was not in good health, although she stayed in the house and was stuffy, she should also take care of it. If you are cured, where can you go? ”

When Li heard this, his smile was even more than one point. The old lady is afraid of goofs, special instructions. Is it true that when their Gu family is dead? ;
