Chapter 541: Uneasy
At night, Zhou Ruijing did not return for a long time. It only made people say that there were some things in the yamen that stumbled their feet, so let Gu Wanyin stop waiting. Thinking of what Concubine Duan said during the day, she felt a little unstable.
Danzhi came in with water to serve, and added some ginger slices to the hot water, which was the best for soaking feet. Holding Gu Wanyin's feet lightly, removing her shoes and socks, and slowly putting them into the water, she spoke softly and comforted: "The princess seems to be a little uneasy today? Aren't you worried about the prince? The prince is just stumbling on business, so there must be nothing to do. The doctor said that it is not good for pregnant people to think too much. ”
Gu Wanyin sighed, looked at Danzhi's picturesque eyebrows, and said honestly: "It's not that I'm worried about this, but I think that the situation is unstable now, and I don't know what will happen in the future." Seeing that I want to give birth, it is also imminent to break up. And Yufei is going to get married again. These things add up, and it's not simple. If the princess is fine at home, at least we can still have a master in the big house, but now ......"
"What is the princess worried about? Didn't the princess say she wanted to come back? Danzhi said softly, but the movements in his hands did not stagnate, and he kept pressing his feet for Gu Wanyin to promote the smooth flow of qi and blood. These days, the edema of the legs and feet is getting worse and worse. The white legs were not as warm as jade as in the past, and they were much whiter and thicker, not to mention, and it took a long time for the traces to disappear when you pressed it lightly. It's a bit shocking to watch.
"It's a long way, and you always have to wait for the snow to melt before you can leave. At that time, it must have been early summer. Gu Wanyin sighed. In fact, even if the princess comes back, it can't be good, at most she will take over the family affairs. There is no way to change the rest. For example, the current obscure situation between the DPRK and China.
Danzhi was also a little stunned, but he didn't sigh, but changed the topic and said, "The ink corruption case has been investigated for so long, why hasn't there been any news?" It's a lot of waiting; The old lady has already sent someone over to ask a few times. The second lady also sent someone to ask a few times. Young Master Cong Qi is also impatient. The girl Hongzhu next to Young Master Cong Qi. It doesn't look weird, it's very loyal, and it's very attentive to Young Master Congqi. It's just that one thing is strange, Hongzhu never allows anyone to serve Young Master Cong Qi closely. I don't know if it's because of caution or something else. ”
This sentence "something else", Danzhi naturally means something. It's just that even though Danzhi has already guessed something, it is not easy to say, so he can only remind one or two so covertly.
Gu Wanyin frowned and thought about it. Only then did he say slowly: "Cong Qi is getting older, Hongzhu has served him for so many years, although he may not be bribed to be bad for Cong Qi." But it was inevitable that she would have something else in mind. She has been serving with Cong Qi since she was a child, and she has no one else in her eyes wholeheartedly. It's just ...... "Now this faithfulness is not that faithfulness." If she couldn't see such an obvious thing, she would be really confused.
But I didn't expect that Gu Congqi was just how old he was? is still a child, Hongzhu dares to give birth to such a mind! How could this not annoy her? So at the end, his voice was naturally a little angry. After thinking about it for a long time, she asked Danzhi again: "Did you find out who instigated it?" Even if Hongzhu had these thoughts that she shouldn't have, she wouldn't want to instigate Gu Congqi to say things like that to her. After all. Whether Gu Changfei is good or not has nothing to do with Hongzhu.
"It's Qi." Danzhi said softly, but glanced up at Gu Wanyin worriedly. Now that Gu Wanyin is pregnant, how can she not worry about such a bad thing?
Gu Wanyin frowned, but she didn't look surprised. In fact, she had already thought of this in her heart, and she just wanted to confirm it again. She understood Zhang's thoughts. It's just that I want to have something to rely on for the rest of my life. And the Zhang family didn't rely on Gu Changfei at all. And she is the main wife, without Gu Changfei, she is still the second wife of the Gu family and Gu Congqi's mother. No one will take her how. So the Zhang family doesn't care too much about Gu Changfei's life or death. And Aunt Li, after more than a year of "retreat", is also dead to Gu Changfei, and even has hatred. And. Aunt Li didn't have that ability. How many days has Aunt Li been out? The other concubines were all honest, and they were all pinched in Zhang's hands, and they couldn't make waves. Then naturally there is only one Qi clan left.
Only the Qi family and Gu Changfei will be so important. Only the Qi family can't rely on his son for the time being. So I can only rely on Gu Changfei.
"She's capable." Saying lightly, a sinister aura flashed between her warm eyebrows, Gu Wanyin knocked on the yellow rosewood table next to her hand, and said slowly in that crisp voice: "Since this is the case, then tell the Zhang family about this." She, as a mother, should also be interested in Cong Qi. Love is not something that is said on the lips. ”
Danzhi listened to it on the sidelines, and his heart was even clearer: I was afraid that Gu Wanyin would also have some complaints about the Zhang family at this time. complained that the Zhang family couldn't take care of Gu Congqi.
After hesitating slightly, Danzhi still opened his mouth softly: "The second lady has a shallow foundation when she marries." The Qi family is a powerful one, Su Ri has even been deceived by us, not to mention the second lady? Besides, who would have thought that Hongzhu would be so shallow-eyed. I looked at it coldly, but I felt that the second lady really loved Young Master Congqi. ”
Gu Wanyin didn't answer, her expression was faint and she didn't know what she was thinking. No irritation, no emotion. Just looked at a picture of spring pear blossoms and butterflies dancing on the wall so faintly.
The atmosphere in the room seemed to sink all at once, a little oppressive and cold. Ran Danzhi seemed to be aware, and only continued slowly I don't know how many times he had done - he gently picked up Gu Wanyin's feet from the water, wiped them clean with a cloth, put on his shoes again, and then picked up another one. Then he went to the door with the footbasin, where naturally there was a little girl guarding the footbasin and taking it over. Dan Zhifu walked up to Gu Wanyin again and said softly: "It's not early, the princess should rest; ”
Gu Wanyin retracted her gaze at this time, as if she was awakened by this light sentence. He whispered: "I just think that there is inevitably some difference between not being my biological mother in the end." It's me who cares too much. Instead, they lost the peace they deserved. In the final analysis, she is just unwilling, unwilling for Roche.
Danzhi understood in his heart, but he was helpless, he opened his mouth to persuade a few words, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to close his mouth again and said instead: "It's still cold at night, even if the princess doesn't want to sleep, go to bed to warm up first." ”
Gu Wanyin nodded, stretched out her hand and asked Danzhi to help her get up, and walked to the side of the bed. The bed was naturally made a long time ago, and Danzhi was allowed to lie down on it, and then pulled the quilt and covered it carefully, and then asked: "Today, I asked you to send a few more mothers-in-law to keep vigil in the Yufei courtyard, but can you go?" It's time for them to lock up the yard at this time. "I just think about the enemy and I don't know where the potential is, and I can't let go of it in my heart. I just felt like I was hanging a big rock, and I felt very uncomfortable.
"It's locked. I sent four mothers-in-law over. Originally, I wanted to send two more, but I really couldn't live it. Danzhi replied, knowing Gu Wanyin's uneasiness in his heart, but there was really no way to eliminate such uneasiness. You can only use all the methods you can to strengthen the protection as much as possible.
"That's good. The mother-in-law who patrols the night also reminded me not to be lazy. Gu Wanyin commanded in a deep voice, "If you find someone who is lazy, you will be severely punished." "This matter is really sloppy. Because of the experience of the past, it is too shocking. One has to be careful. After thinking about it, he still felt uneasy, so he ordered: "You go and have a look." By the way, let's see if those mothers-in-law are lazy. ”
Danzhi saw that she was so relieved, so she had to reluctantly respond, got up and called two little girls to accompany her, and then slowly went out with a lantern.
Bimei came in to serve, but she didn't talk with Danzhi like Danzhi, just stayed quietly.
However, Gu Wanyin always felt worried in her heart, extremely unstable, thinking that maybe she could distract herself, but she didn't find something to say. Gradually, Bimei also seemed to be aware of it, so she took the initiative to say: "The green pothos has escaped from the Zhuangzi." I thought that she was afraid of being discovered by èrnǎi milk. ”
"Naturally, it is. It's just that she's pregnant, and she won't run far if she wants to. You don't have to worry too much. Gu Wanyin saw Bimei's sad appearance, so she smiled slightly and comforted: "Besides, with the second wife watching, you don't have to worry too much." Anyway, if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, the flesh and blood in the stomach are the flesh and blood of the second master. ”
Bi Mei was startled, and her mind raced to understand what Gu Wanyin meant. There was a look of surprise on his face: "The princess is saying--but how can the second wife ......" will tolerate the child in the belly of the pothos?"
"The second wife has always disliked èrnǎi milk, and our Gu family has nothing to worry about. So the second wife naturally has no worries. In the past, the second wife didn't like pothos, and she was afraid that she would not be able to explain, so she would indulge èrnǎi milk to make such a fuss. However, the child of èrnǎi milk is gone, and the second wife is sad and disappointed, so she naturally wants to keep another one. It's a consolation. Now that the pothos herself has come to this point and concealed it from everyone, the second wife is naturally even more happy to see it. Gu Wanyin softly analyzed the second wife's thoughts, but added a sentence in her heart: The most important thing is that the second wife is unwilling to deteriorate the relationship with Zhou Ruiming. That's why I turned a blind eye. Now the second wife knows in her heart that Gu Yingyin is only afraid that she will not get pregnant again, so she ...... I care more about that child.
It's just that the child of the pothos was saved, but I don't know what the fate of the pothos will be in the future.
Gu Wanyin sighed softly, for the pothos and for Gu Yingyin. If it weren't for Gu Yingyin's dominance, Gu Yingyin would not be where she is today. That's why there is that sentence, Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, and retribution is not happy.;
