Chapter 185: Seeking Death

The old lady was also afraid that Gu Wanyin would be cold, so she deliberately made it so funny.

Who knew that Zhou Ruijing really stood up and waved at Gu Wanyin: "Madame, forgive me, I'll compensate Madame." Although it is an amend, it is not like the usual solemn appearance, but it is a bit of a joke.

Gu Wanyin hurriedly turned sideways, and her cheeks were stained with a layer of rouge: "What is the prince doing?" I just did what I had to do. ”

Although the old lady was a little stunned, she reacted very quickly in the end, and smiled at the moment: "You should also accept this gift from him." He runs around all day long, and everything at home depends on you. Without you, how could he be out there like this? ”

"That's exactly what it is." The corners of Zhou Ruijing's lips were raised, and he looked at her sideways, and his tone was indescribably gentle: "The old lady said it very well." I'm really grateful to Wanyin. ”

Hearing Zhou Ruijing call her name so affectionately, Gu Wanyin became more and more uncomfortable. When the old lady lowered her head and drank porridge, she glared at him with disgust. But Zhou Ruijing didn't seem to see it, without the slightest bit of shame. Instead, he raised his eyebrows at her, which frightened her and lowered her head again. Don't dare to do it again.

Besides, the old lady, although she lowered her head to drink porridge, but out of the corner of her eye, she also saw the intimate actions of the two of them. Thinking of the two of them walking in so intimately, I sighed in my heart. The better the relationship between the two of them, the more difficult it will be to insert someone in the future. only then did she know that Gu Wanyin got the dish for her, and she felt a little awkward in her heart - she selfishly wanted to take away Gu Wanyin's power as the future mistress of Zhennan Palace, and wanted to wait until the opportunity was right to marry Zhou Ruijing to a flat wife, but now Gu Wanyin is becoming more and more satisfied: in addition to her family background, she can't find any big mistakes, which makes the old lady's heart a little shaken and awkward.

It's an old saying here. Eat people with short mouths, take people softly.

Thoughtful. What you eat on your mouth is the same as chewing wax. After breakfast, the old lady realized that she didn't even remember what she had eaten.

After eating, the two of them sat for a while, and after asking some things about Zhou Ruijing's yamen, the old lady suddenly said: "Daughter-in-law Jing, if you are free, go to the palace for me to see the queen mother." The heavy rain has not stopped in the past few days, and the Queen Mother may be upset. You also go to untie the Empress Dowager for me. ”

Although Gu Wanyin was surprised in her heart, she did not respond in the slightest on her face. On the previous occasion, the old lady was somewhat reluctant to enter the palace. Later, things went even further. But now the old lady suddenly relented.

Or is it that the old lady finally accepted her as a granddaughter-in-law?

A smile appeared at the corner of Gu Wanyin's mouth, but there was no surprise in her heart.

The three of them were talking; Ganlu saw the girl outside waving at her frequently, and immediately withdrew from the courtyard quietly, frowning and reprimanding in a low voice: "Don't you have long eyes?" Didn't you see the old lady talking to the princess? If you annoy the old lady, watch your skin! ”

The beckoning girl didn't dare to argue, and only waited for Ganlu to finish reprimanding, and then replied in a trembling whisper: "The second wife is holding a rope and wants to die!" ”

Manna was shocked. Even he forgot to lower his voice: "What? ”

Without waiting for the girl to explain, the old lady's displeased voice had already come out: "What's the noise outside?" Manna. ”

Ganlu had no choice but to pull the girl in. hurriedly crouched in the old lady's ear and replied: "Old lady, this girl said that the second lady is looking for death." ”

The old lady was also shocked: "What? Die! Then he stood up angrily and stared at the girl who came to tell him: "Say, what's going on!" Shocked and angry, even Gu Wanyin and the others forgot to avoid it, so they asked so directly.

Gu Wan's voice vaguely heard the words seeking death, and she was also startled, and subconsciously turned her head to look at Zhou Ruijing. Zhou Ruijing seemed to turn a deaf ear, and his face was as calm and motionless as Mount Tai.

She was immediately infected, and gradually calmed down.

The girl saw that the old lady was really angry, and she didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, so she said 1510: "The second lady said yesterday that she had a headache, but she didn't ask the girl to ask for a doctor." Later, for some reason, today I suddenly took a rope to seek death, and it was no fun to say that I was alive. The girls didn't dare to hide it anymore, so they came over to tell me, I was afraid that they would collide with the princess and the prince, so I stopped and asked first. I only listened to it, but I didn't dare to delay, so I hurried over to tell it. ”

The old lady frowned when she heard this: "Yesterday was fine, why today-"

Gu Wanyin also wondered - wouldn't the second wife be looking for death and life for some silver? Or do you want to die and come back to life? first seek death, and then admit your mistakes, and then this matter will naturally be over......

Gu Wanyin was speculating, but the old lady couldn't sit still, so Huo Ran got up: "Let's go, go over and take a look." ”

Gu Wanyin's heart moved, and she stepped forward to support the old lady first: "The old lady is slow, she is dizzy when she is angry." "If you go with the old lady, you will naturally know what is going on. At that moment, I couldn't help but think of what the third wife said when she saw her—or, the third lady asked her to go and see the second wife, for this?

And Zhou Ruijing also stood up, but he didn't plan to go with them, but said in a low voice: "I'll go and take a look at the second brother." ”

The old lady naturally nodded in agreement, there is a difference between men and women, the second wife is an elder, and Zhou Ruijing is always a man who is not good to go directly. It's still such an awkward moment.

As for Gu Wanyin, the old lady didn't know whether she ignored it, or felt that it was okay, but she didn't mean to refuse her to follow and take a look.

The old lady was in a hurry, probably really frightened by what the girl said—after all, she was so dignified, how could she be looking for death and life. Moreover, she is also the housekeeper's wife. This is no small matter.

The long stretch of gallery took less than a quarter of an hour to complete. It's just that the old lady is old after all, and she is pampered on weekdays, but she is a little out of breath at this time.

Gu Wanyin looked at it from the side, and saw that the second wife's yard had arrived, so she persuaded: "The old lady walks slowly, the road is slippery in the rain." "Although we have reached the outside of the courtyard, we still have to walk a rainy road to enter the courtyard.

Manna had already hurriedly taken out a large oil-paper umbrella and spread it out, carefully covering the old lady from the wind and rain.

Gu Wanyin glanced at the mud on the ground and frowned: "I forgot to wear clogs." The ground was so wet that after a while, water entered the shoes. After thinking about it, he turned his head and ordered the little girl who followed: "Go, you run over and get a few pairs of clogs." "It's better for one person to have dirty shoes than for them to be dirty.

Ganlu smiled when she heard this, glanced at the old lady, but said with admiration: "It's still the princess who is careful and thoughtful." ”

Gu Wanyin smiled slightly, as if she was a little embarrassed: "I don't want my shoes to get into the water, but it's very uncomfortable." Manna suddenly said good things for the old lady in front of her, and thus showed her goodwill, although she did not dare to say that she knew all about Ganlu's thoughts, but she could guess a few points. I can't help but feel a little emotional-Ganlu's mind is so persistent.

The girl who was ordered to get the clogs was also very quick, and she rushed over to get the clogs. Gu Wanyin bent down first to change it for the old lady, and then put it on herself. The remaining pair was handed to the nectar: "You can wear this pair." ”

Ganlu hesitated for a moment, then pushed back and glanced at the Danzhi behind her: "It's better to wear it for that sister." ”

Gu Wanyin glanced sideways at Danzhi, smiled slightly and pushed her shoes over: "Put it on, my girl is not tight." But you have to serve the old lady, but it is much more expensive than them. I and the prince rely on you to take good care of the old lady for us. Manna wanted to please her with a pair of clogs, but she was unwilling to accept it. Some overtures are not easily acceptable. Since you don't want to, don't think about the nectar at all. It's best to extinguish that glimmer of hope early.

Ganlu's face stiffened, she didn't dare to refuse anymore, she lowered her head and took her shoes and bent down to put them on.

The old lady remained silent, as if she had not seen their little movements. Maybe it's pretending not to understand, or maybe it's not wanting to pay attention to these little things.

Ganlu made an umbrella for the old lady, and Danzhi made an umbrella for Gu Wanyin, so she entered the courtyard of the second wife.

As soon as I entered the courtyard and stepped into the corridor, before I could enter the house, I could already hear the hysterical cry of the second wife.

The old lady couldn't help frowning suddenly-what kind of system did a housekeeper's wife make as noisy as such a shrew?

Not only the old lady, but Gu Wanyin also frowned - not that she felt that the second wife was unorthodox, but that the second wife's hysterical voice was too harsh and noisy. After listening to it once, you will never want to hear it a second time. It is said that women have three tricks - one crying, two troubles, and three hangings. It's just that in her opinion, if a woman doesn't respect herself, what's the use of crying? A man may be soft-hearted for a while, but after a long time, he will get bored.

The second wife cried and cursed viciously: "Second Zhou, you have no conscience, I have been married to you for so many years, and you treat me like this!" You can't die a good death, you eat in the pot, look at the bowl, you stinky shameless—I was so blind to marry you—"

The old lady stood outside and listened, and finally couldn't help it, so she took a few breaths of anger, and rushed in to scold: "Don't shut up for me yet!" ”

The old lady was worried about the second wife just now, but after listening to the second wife's curse, she was completely moved. Don't forget, the second master is the old lady's own son. The son was scolded like this, even if he is a daughter-in-law, but as a mother, where will he be comfortable? If it weren't for the identity and face of the second wife, the old lady would have had the mind to block her mouth at this time.
