Chapter 536: The Eldest Princess's Mansion
All the way back to Zhou's house, Gu Wanyin only said nothing. Even Gu Congqi, who was following with him, didn't dare to say a word. Anyone can see that Gu Wanyin is in a bad mood, and anyone understands that at this time, it is best to be quiet.
Gu Wanyin still remembered the old lady's expression after she said that. It's so regretful, it's sad, and there's a look of understanding. and the final gloom. Apparently, the old lady had already accepted the suggestion. Or rather, dead hearts. Cut off the superfluous delusions that shouldn't be. It can be said that it is helpless.
But no matter whether it is helpless or delusional, in the end, the old lady is finally not entangled in this matter. And she also explained this matter. At least, it's a clear statement.
Back at Zhou's house, Zhou Ruijing was already at home, looking at Gu Wanyin's appearance, he guessed a few points in his heart. At the moment, she also wanted her to divert her attention, so she smiled and said: "The palace has recently cultivated green begonias, Duan Guifei asked people to send two pots to our house, and I sent them to Yufei, why don't you accompany me to take a look?" ”
Although Gu Wanyin understood what Zhou Ruijing meant, she really couldn't raise any interest in her heart, so she shook her head and refused at the moment: "Let's go and see it tomorrow, I'm a little tired today, and I want to take a break." ”
Zhou Ruijing saw her tiredness, and she was very distressed at the moment, but there was no better way, so she had to tell the girl to make the bed, and let the girl rest with Gu Congqi, everything was in order, so she took Gu Wanyin to the bedroom, held Gu Wanyin's hand, looked at her slightly tired eyes, and said softly: "You don't have to be embarrassed, no matter what it is, there is always me." "It's not difficult to really save Gu Changfei, it's just a matter of effort.
Gu Wanyin's heart moved, she raised her head to look at Zhou Ruijing and smiled reluctantly, she didn't know how she wanted to talk about it in her heart. At that moment, Suo Xing said quietly: "My mother gave birth to three children for my father; Brother, me, Cong Qi. Cong Qi was exchanged for my mother's life. But my father is afraid that he can't remember what my mother looks like now. I often think, if it weren't for the fact that my father was not satisfied with my mother and Aunt Li, and brought the Qi family home, maybe today would not be different at all? Also, for as long as I can remember, my father hasn't loved me. It's like I'm just a stranger, not his daughter. On weekdays, don't talk about being close to love, even seeing each other is rare. I think it's better not to have such a father at all. Maybe better. At least, if you don't have it, you won't feel unjust, you won't be angry, you won't be jealous, and you won't be resentful. ”
Yes, for Gu Changfei's father, she has more resentment. In her heart, Gu Changfei is not a father. It was the accomplice who killed Luo, but the culprit who caused their brothers and sisters to suffer a lot! In the face of such a father, how can she get close? How can you calmly and willingly give everything you have so hard to get?
Zhou Ruijing listened to her faint and gentle voice, which was almost the same as before, but it was rare to hear resentment and unwillingness from it. Listen to her talk about these childhood memories, listen to her say how she feels in her heart. He only felt a pain in his heart, and he couldn't say uncomfortable. even subconsciously reached out and took Gu Wanyin into his arms. Even though he guessed the grievances in her heart, it was not as shocking as seeing and hearing with his own eyes.
After a long time, Zhou Ruijing spoke softly, although his voice was soft, but it revealed a sense of perseverance: "Everything is over." "The hardships and grievances she has endured will never be again. Especially the ones that Roche once endured.
There was no lack of comfort in Zhou Ruijing's voice, Gu Wanyin could naturally hear it, and she naturally felt a little moved in her heart. It's also undeniable. Zhou Ruijing's words played a great role, at least after saying this, his mood was much better, and he was no longer so uncomfortable and panicked. When he raised his head, he felt a little embarrassed, and after smiling, he lowered his head again, with a hint of ruddy on his face. The tone was also resolute: "Yes, it's all over, don't mention it." ”
After saying this, he said the promise he made in front of Old Madam Gu today, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Zhou Ruijing with bright eyes, waiting for him to express his position.
Zhou Ruijing smiled slightly, not at all unhappy, and only said softly: "It's so good, and no one has anything to say." Actually, even if she did agree, it would be nothing. She can do that for Zhou Yufei, and he can naturally do it too. They are fuqi, how can they need such politeness? Seeing Gu Wanyin's somewhat uncertain appearance, he didn't feel comfortable, but a little unhappy.
In this case, the birth is divided. He would rather Gu Wanyin not do this, just let him know. Only then can we not see the outside and become a family.
It's just that seeing Gu Wanyin so tired and uncomfortable, he naturally doesn't want to take it too seriously, so he doesn't bring it out on his face, just as if nothing happened. But in fact, he still secretly remembered it in his heart, thinking that he would always take it out and talk about it in the future.
Gu Wanyin said again that Gu Congqi was going to live for a while. It's just the matter of Concubine Rong and Aunt Li, but she didn't mention a word. Why bother Zhou Ruijing about these inner house things? It's just Concubine Rong's purpose, but she secretly pays attention. But now there is no evidence, it is difficult to say, so at the end of the words, it only turned into a reminder: "During this period of time, the court is unstable, and the prince should be more careful." ”
Zhou Ruijing listened to the movement in his heart, and a thought slowly surfaced. It's just that he didn't show it at all, but smiled: "Don't worry, you should always have some confidence in me." Or do you think I'm inferior to others? ”
Gu Wanyin couldn't help but purse her lips and laugh when she heard that he was a little joking, and her eyes were shining: "How come?" The prince is the best. After saying this, he glanced at the smile on Zhou Ruijing's face, and said slowly: "It's just that the prince always has to remember one sentence - three stinkers, one Zhuge Liang." In case everyone unites to calculate, isn't the prince at a loss? ”
Zhou Ruijing couldn't help but smile and shake his head, looking at Gu Wanyin's tilted head and smiling, he couldn't help but smile a little bigger; I just feel that my heart seems to be swollen with something, soft as a pool of water under the spring sun. After a few stunned glances, he lowered his head and landed his gaze on Gu Wanyin's abdomen, and said softly: "There are still more than two months before the child is born." ”
"Well, has the prince thought of a name?" Gu Wanyin stretched out her hand and gently stroked her abdomen, and through the soft Shu brocade clothes, she only felt that her abdomen was round, like a smooth watermelon. Thinking like this, I couldn't help but laugh again.
The two of them whispered for a while, and did not go out until dinnertime. It's just that it was in vain for the girls to make the bed, originally to let Gu Wanyin rest for a while, but I didn't expect it to be in the end.
……
In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the banquet in the eldest princess's mansion. It's the end of March, and it's the time when all kinds of flowers compete for beauty. Even the weather is warm, change into a spring shirt that is not thick or thin, walking among the flowers, what a wonderful thing? It's just that Gu Wanyin is not among them, now she is more than seven months pregnant, and her body is really heavy, so she doesn't bother to move at all.
If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to give the eldest princess enough face, and she was worried that Zhou Yufei wouldn't be able to deal with it, she wouldn't have to run out like this. I was tired of myself in vain. Even others are terrified when they look at it.
When I arrived outside the gate of the eldest princess's mansion, I felt that it was different from ordinary people's homes. After all, it is the Princess's Mansion, and it is not difficult to see that everything is carefully carved, and it is not difficult to see that the shape and style of the Eldest Princess's Mansion are similar to that of the palace somewhere, and even fundamentally speaking, it is a smaller copy. Although it is not as magnificent as the palace, it is better than the exquisiteness.
As soon as he got out of the carriage, someone came forward to greet him: "Princess Zhennan Wang, Miss Wednesday." "This person is a somewhat wealthy woman, in her thirties, with a somewhat round face, a simple and neat bun, and a few hairpins, which are also simple and atmospheric. A pair of eyes and a kind air, looking at it at any time with a smile. It is difficult for people to have any disgust for such people. And the gold ornaments on her hands and head make it easy for people to see her identity.
Gu Wanyin understood in her heart that this lady was only afraid that she was a close confidant of the eldest princess, so she didn't take Qiao at the moment, and smiled gently: "Exactly." ”
The woman introduced her identity, and sure enough, she followed the eldest princess, but she didn't expect that she was also married together in the palace, and she has been serving by the eldest princess's side. Then she explained her intentions, saying that the eldest princess knew that Gu Wanyin was pregnant, and she was afraid that others would not be suitable, so she let her come in person. Then, a few young and strong mothers-in-law carried a bamboo sedan chair forward.
Obviously, it was a transportation tool specially prepared for Gu Wanyin.
Gu Wanyin looked at it, but there was some hesitation in her heart - although it was so trouble-free, she was not more tired than tired, but could she be too arrogant?
Xu saw Gu Wanyin's concerns, the woman smiled, and said: "Her Royal Highness the princess said that the princess should not be tired when she is pregnant, but there are many good scenery in the garden, and it would be a pity not to take a look." As for the others, everyone knows that you can't work hard when you're pregnant, so you'll be considerate. After finishing speaking, he took the initiative to let the sedan chair wait in front of Gu Wanyin.
Obviously, if Gu Wanyin still refused at this time, it would inevitably be too hypocritical.
Gu Wanyin's heart was a little complicated for a while, she felt that the eldest princess was careful, and she also felt that the eldest princess's behavior had a deep meaning. At the moment, he didn't think deeply, but just smiled and nodded: "Since that's the case, then I might as well be respectful." Please thank Her Royal Highness the princess for me. ”;
