Chapter 175: Suffering
Gu Wanyin was only startled for a moment, but there was a hint of a smile on her face, and she said coquettishly: "The old lady said this, maybe she felt more distressed in her heart!" If I really brought the nectar back, I am afraid that the prince will come back at night, and I must be blamed. Last time, the prince also told me that he took care of us by the old lady's side and did all our filial piety for us. The old lady is the most inseparable from nectar, and I dare not take the love of others.
She naturally understood what the old lady meant. Supposedly, she should have agreed. After all, this is the only way to show her generosity and virtuousness. What's more, this person was given by the old lady, how dare he brush the old lady's meaning?
It's just that, for some reason, she is unwilling to let go. Subconsciously, he said the words of refusal.
The old lady's eyes flashed, she stared at Gu Wanyin for a glance and looked away, and then laughed again: "Okay, you go back quickly." It's just a joke, and it scares you. ”
Gu Wanyin's smile did not decrease, and she bowed and withdrew. When I went out, I looked up and quickly glanced at the nectar, only to see that the nectar actually looked disappointed, and it looked like an indescribable lost soul.
Gu Wanyin was also a little shocked. At the same time, she was a little surprised that the old lady was so easily relieved - she didn't believe it, the old lady was a joke. Looking at Ganlu like that, I'm afraid the old lady has already said something to Ganlu. Otherwise, how dare manna be so obvious?
Therefore, she felt that the old lady's deliberate concession now would inevitably have more violent means in the future. Manna is the big girl next to the old lady, and the old lady naturally refuses to be wronged. If Zhou Ruijing received the nectar, how could she be an aunt, and she would not be able to be sent away by a simple girl.
Coupled with Ganlu's love affair with Zhou Ruijing since childhood, presumably he will never treat Ganlu badly. When the time comes, the low level of the nectar......
Gu Wanyin sighed. It's all gone, and the good mood it was in when I came. This time she refused, and the old lady also backed down. But what about next time? What if the old lady brings it up again next time? Even told Zhou Ruijing directly behind her back? Will Zhou Ruijing agree? Maybe...... Yes. First, Zhou Ruijing probably wouldn't disobey the old lady for such a trivial matter. Second, his relationship with Manna is indeed unusual, and it is not impossible to give Manna a decent identity.
Gu Wanyin suddenly found that her heart was not as calm as she imagined. Some are sour, some are astringent, and there is a feeling of being out of breath.
She didn't like that. When Li talked about this matter, she was reluctant to give Zhou Ruijing a concubine in person. At that time, she thought that if the old lady wanted it, Zhou Ruijing herself would have no opinion. She endured it. But now she found out - such a thing, reluctance is reluctance, there is nothing to endure and forget.
That feeling is like a fish in the throat. No vomiting, no pleasure.
Maybe. The reason why she resisted giving Zhou Ruijing a concubine was also due to Luo and Gu Changfei. watched Gu Changfei's favorite concubine kill his wife, and looked at Gu Changfei's preference. looked at Gu Changfei's coy attitude. She only felt that taking a concubine was not a good thing. But the biggest reason is because of Zhou Ruijing.
Maybe Zhou Ruijing is not so good to her, and they are not so harmonious and happy, and she will not resist like this. But it is precisely because it is too beautiful now that she is unwilling to break this happy happiness. The life of two people. Naturally, it is completely different from the life of three people.
Maybe Zhou Ruijing will not be as confused as Gu Changfei and do things like spoiling his concubine and killing his wife; But. But she is not willing to compete with other women for favor. Raise your eyebrows and never leave. Such an agreement cannot tolerate a third person.
The girls behind her naturally saw that Gu Wanyin was in a low mood at this time, so no one dared to say anything more.
After going back to the house for lunch, Gu Wanyin planned to take a nap as usual. But suddenly he changed his mind, turned over and sat up and instructed Danzhi: "Let's go and see Yufei." "Ever since the old lady was sick, she hadn't cared much about this girl. It's hard to get free today. She had to go over and see how to rest assured.
went all the way to Zhou Yufei's yard. However, Zhou Yufei did not come out as usual, but the girl on the side said: "There was thunder yesterday, our girl was frightened, and today she started a fever, and she didn't wake up in bed." ”
"What?" Gu Wanyin was startled, and hurriedly entered the bedroom in three steps and two steps, and sure enough, she saw that Zhou Yufei was still sleeping on the bed, her face was pale without the slightest blood. She called, but she didn't see any response from Zhou Yufei. Stretched out his hand to probe Zhou Yufei's forehead, which was even more hot.
"Have you asked a doctor to come and see you? Have you taken any medicine? Gu Wanyin hurriedly turned her head and asked Zhou Yufei's girl.
The girl wiped away a handful of tears and sighed: "I have already told the second wife, and the second wife said that this is an old disease, don't worry." It's raining in the past two days, so don't bother the doctor, I just casually invited Lang Zhong, who opened a medical hall, to come over and take a look, prescribe a pair of medicines, and have already boiled and eaten. ”
Gu Wanyin frowned. What does this mean, Second Wife? In the past, when the family was sick, they all handed over the name card to ask the doctor to come and see, why couldn't Zhou Yufei be invited? What old ailments? Besides, can Lang Zhong outside be trusted? How is the medical technique? These are all questions. Even if the second wife is reluctant to ask for a doctor, it is troublesome, and she should ask a doctor who usually sees a doctor in the house. Why did you invite a Lang Zhong casually?
"Have you gotten better after taking medicine?" Gu Wanyin suppressed her anger and asked patiently. At this time, it is still important for Zhou Yufei, and for the rest, she will find the second wife to theorize.
"No, I don't. It hasn't gotten any better, but it hasn't gotten better. As the girl spoke, her tears flowed even more urgently. Poof" knelt down, and the girl kowtowed pleadingly: "Please help our girl, our girl is the best ...... with you"
"Do you still have to say that?" Gu Wanyin scolded angrily, "Can I still help?" As he spoke, he turned his head and instructed Danzhi: "Go, let the little guy at the door take the name of the prince and ask a doctor to take a look." ”
"Okay, why did you start the burn?" It's not cold now, so why do you suddenly catch a cold and fever? Gu Wanyin felt a little strange. Moreover...... "Why did the second wife say that it was an old disease?" ”
The girl wiped her tears, lowered her head and replied softly: "Our girl has been like this since she was a child, she will be frightened when there is thunder, and then she will have a fever. That's why the second wife said it was an old disease. ”
"If it's an old disease, why don't you take any precautions?" It's okay not to listen to it, but when she heard it, Gu Wanyin was even more annoyed. The voice was involuntarily much louder.
I don't know if she was too loud, but she woke up Zhou Yuxuan in a loud noise. Zhou Yufei propped herself up weakly, her eyes were blank but she barely squeezed out a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't blame the girl, it's me who is useless......"
Seeing Zhou Yufei wake up, Gu Wanyin hurriedly supported Zhou Yufei, held her in her arms, and frowned: "It's all this time, are you still protecting the girl?" Who wants to get sick? Who can blame yourself? Speaking of which, it's also my fault, if I had known that such a thing would have happened, I should have prepared early. ”
"How can you blame my sister-in-law?" Zhou Yu said scarily, smiling as much as possible, but her face was pale without the slightest blood, and it was even more distressing to watch;
"Alright, alright, stop talking." Gu Wanyin pressed her down and lay down in distress: "I'll ask the girl to make you some soft porridge, so you can eat some." ”
For a while, Gu Wanyin personally fed Zhou Yufei and finished eating the porridge, and waited until the imperial doctor came over to read the prescription, boiled the medicine and watched Zhou Yufei drink it, and it was not too early to see that the hour was not early, and the outside had already begun to think of the rain again, so she planned to go back. It's just that when he left, he felt uneasy, so he left Danzhi to take care of Zhou Yufei.
At the same time, he instructed the girl: "No matter what happens, no matter what time it is, you just have to go back and forth to me." If it is delayed, I will not spare it! ”
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, but it's not as loud as yesterday. It's just that it's extremely annoying.
Lai Jinbao and Wang Baosheng came back before dark to tell that they had taken advantage of the heavy rain and had transported some of them into the city first. Gu Wanyin hesitated for a moment, and then asked them to transport all the dishes to the Gu family first.
After a while, the Wang family of the Lai family also replied that the carbon was ready. And the carbon from the Zhou family was also transferred to the Gu family.
Gu Wanyin sneered in her heart, everything is ready, only Dongfeng is owed. Second wife, this time, see how you pick up.
Zhou Ruijing came back later today than yesterday, and the rain gear he wore was not the one he wore when he went out in the morning. Instead, the coat and hat were soaked, and although they wore clogs, their socks and pants were all soaked, and they were even more covered with mud. Not only that, Zhou Ruijing seems to be very tired, which is very different from the past.
Seeing this, Gu Wanyin realized that he didn't come back directly from the yamen, so she couldn't help but ask.
Zhou Ruijing replied casually: "I went to the embankment." ”
"The prince shouldn't care about this, right?" Gu Wanyin frowned and asked. When looking at the matter of the dam, it should be the official in charge of water conservancy.
"The saint is not worried, let me go and see." Zhou Ruijing smiled slightly and explained softly: "Anyway, it didn't take much effort. ”
"Is the levee alright? The river must have risen with water. Gu Wanyin asked softly while helplessly changing his clothes for him. And looking at this posture, I am afraid that the rain will still fall and the water will rise.
"It's gone up a bit, but don't worry yet." Zhou Ruijing buttoned the collar by himself and looked at her with a burning look: "You don't have to worry about it at home." ”
Gu Wanyin hurriedly lowered her head, she felt that Zhou Ruijing's glance had seen through all the thoughts in her heart. The levee is the most dangerous when the water is high. How could she not be worried?
Fu talked about her plan again: "I asked my subordinates to stock up on vegetables and carbon. Even if it rains all the time, you don't have to worry about it at home. ”
Zhou Ruijing was slightly stunned, and then raised his eyebrows: "Huh? Carbon? ”
Gu Wanyin nodded with a smile, smiling very slyly, and her eyes were slightly curved: "If it rains all the time, the house is too damp, and it will be more comfortable to grill it over a charcoal fire." There are also clothes, which cannot be dried when it rains, so they have to be dried over a charcoal fire. I bought all the carbon in my second wife's hands. ”
Zhou Ruijing only groaned slightly, and then understood what she meant, and couldn't help laughing at the moment, "Madame, think about it." The second aunt is afraid that she will suffer a loss.
