Are you jealous of me?
The fourth sister misunderstood, I didn't ......"
"Nothing?"
Gu Yao sneered, "Are you stupid to me?" If the fifth sister didn't send me snacks, how could you stop me? ”
Gu Jinyu lowered her eyelids and was silent.
"Third sister, you speak." Gu Yao pushed Gu Jinyu, "Aren't you quite able to say it?" Why did you suddenly shut up? Are you weak-hearted? Or do you feel sorry for the money? Or are you jealous of me? Are you jealous that I have five sisters who give me snacks? ”
"I'm not unfamiliar with her snacks."
Gu Jinyu muttered quietly, the corner of her eyes swept over Gu Yue, and Gu Yue was staring at her shyly and timidly.
Gu Jinyu was instantly sad.
She is a concubine and can have the most expensive and beautiful things in the world, but why does the fifth sister always look at her with envy and adoration?
She is a concubine, she is the eldest granddaughter, and she deserves this honor.
Gu Jinyu clenched her fists and glared at Gu Yue fiercely, "You quickly put away the snacks." Although the fifth sister is young, she cherishes the things that her grandmother has given her. You have made the decision for the fifth sister this time, and you have touched the bottom line of the fifth sister, and the fifth sister is unhappy, so don't try to please her. ”
"I didn't want to please the fifth sister." Gu Yue retorted in a low voice.
Gu Jinyu snorted, "Of course you don't dare to annoy the fifth sister. You are a concubine, and you are disgusted by your father, and the fifth sister has not taken you to heart since she was a child. She doesn't like you, and naturally she doesn't treat you as a sister. ”
Gu Jinyu persuaded in a sincere tone, "Fifth sister is not sensible, are you also confused?" The fifth sister is just a child, and if she commits something wrong, her grandmother will punish her. You actually helped the fifth sister to hide it, if it spreads, do you want to be famous? ”
Gu Yue bit her lip, "You...... I didn't think that far ahead, and it was also for the sake of my fourth sister and grandmother. ”
Gu Jinyu sighed lightly and held Gu Yue's arm, "You just listen to my sister, don't sue in front of your grandmother, and don't tell your fifth sister what we discussed." I'm not afraid that my grandmother will punish us, I'm afraid that the fourth sister will misunderstand. ”
"How could she be misunderstood?"
Gu Yue muttered two sentences, obviously there was something else she wanted to say, but she was stopped by Gu Jinyu's stern eyes.
"I just asked casually."
Gu Yue pursed the corners of her mouth, "Fourth sister, don't worry, I know the severity." The fifth sister doesn't know the inside story, she is also for the fourth sister, I can't destroy the sisterhood between the fifth sister and the fourth sister because of my own selfish desires. ”
Gu Jinyu smiled with relief, "The fifth sister has really grown a lot, and she also knows how to maintain our sisters' feelings." ”
She dragged Gu Jinyu to the house, and said in a low voice: "Grandmother asked me to go with you to see her, and you can change into bright clothes and dress up." ”
"Okay."
Gu Shan nodded, "Fourth sister, you wait for me for a while, and I'll come when I go." ”
"Slow down."
"Okay."
Gu Shan left, Gu Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on her forehead.
"Sixth sister, just leave it to me here, you go and accompany your grandmother."
"The third sister will also go back to rest early, I will not delay the third sister's time."
"Hmm."
Gu Shan turned around and left.
Gu Jinyu sat down and took a big sip of tea with a teacup, "It's really difficult, I have to watch out for the second aunt and second brother every day." ”
Her maid leaned over and whispered, "Fourth aunt, the slave maid just heard the words of the second lady." ”
"Be clear, don't ramble."
Gu Jinyu frowned, "What did the second aunt say?" ”
"The second room seems to be planning something...... the maid lowered her voice, "The old lady in the second room is sick, and the third uncle of the big room and the second master have all gone to visit the old lady." It is said that the old lady was very angry and said that the second old man turned his elbow outward...... The slave also overheard about it when she was listening to the idle and slippery mother-in-law elsewhere. ”
Gu Jinyu pondered for a long time and ordered: "Go and find the third aunt and grandmother, I have something to discuss with her." ”
Gu Jinyu didn't believe that the Gu family had no smart and clever servants except for the third uncle.
After all, Gu Yan is the eldest son of the Gu family, and he wrote it on the family tree.
And Gu Yan's wife Li is the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, and she has a pair of children for the Gu family, and her upbringing is also very good, which is admired by the patriarch.
Not everyone in the Gu family is oriented towards Gu Yan and attached to Gu Yan, but there are also a group of loyal people in the clan.
"Fourth Miss."
"The third sister is here."
Gu Jinyu stood up and greeted him with a smile, "You are here, I have something urgent to tell you." ”
Gu Jinyu pulled Gu Jinyun into the house and withdrew the maid who was waiting, "Fourth sister, what do you guess the second aunt and the second cousin are doing?" ”
Gu Jinyun's eyes darkened slightly, "They? ”
"Yes, they!"
Gu Jinyu's face flashed with a strange look, "Grandmother called them over, and said that she would let the fourth sister go to see her grandmother, and she also had something to ask the fourth sister." ”
"Grandmother?"
Gu Jinyun was puzzled and said, "Why did grandmother call me alone?" Isn't she the most beloved third cousin? ”
"Who knows?" Gu Jinyu deliberately sold a pass, and said with a smile: "I heard that the second aunt and the third cousin had a bit of a stiff quarrel today, and the second aunt not only reprimanded the third cousin, but also warned the third cousin that the decision should not be made, and the third cousin was not allowed to participate in the ......."
"Are you sure?" Gu Jinyun said in surprise: "I heard my mother say that the second aunt loves the third brother the most, and even we can't compare to the third brother." How could the second aunt warn him? I heard that the second uncle is a filial and filial person, how could he be willing to make the second aunt uncomfortable? ”
"Oh, is your information reliable? I heard that the third cousin fell out with the second aunt, is it because of Gu Jia? The third cousin is very interested in Gu Jia, he has always wanted to marry Gu Jia as a flat wife, and he is not even willing to admit that he is the son of the stepfamily. ”
Gu Jinyu chuckled: "These days, he often goes to the academy to study, and he specially asked Mr. to teach him literary poetry, and he also specially found a famous teacher to guide him in his homework. ”
Gu Jia...... The third cousin is very motivated and works hard. ”
"I heard that the third cousin prepared a rich dowry for Gu Jia, and said that he would marry Gu Jia home. I'm worried that he will be blinded, Gu Jia is not worthy of being his wife, let alone the wife of his third cousin. ”
Gu Jinyu spoke softly, gentle and considerate, as if she was really worried about the third prince.
In fact, he wanted to sow discord between Gu Jia and Gu Yan.
The third cousin is the only son-in-law of the third master, that is, the younger brother of the third prince.
If the third cousin can really marry Gu Jia as his wife, the three princes will have more reinforcements in the court in the future, which will definitely be of great benefit to the future of the three princes.
"Is the third cousin confused, and actually wants to marry Gu Jia as his wife? What kind of goods is Gu Jia? ”
Gu Jinyu shook her head, "I don't know." The matter of the third cousin, it is better for you to worry less, so as not to fall into the mouth. ”
"Also, it's not my turn to take care of this kind of thing, so it's better to take care of the house and strive to get pregnant as soon as possible. When I give birth to a son, I will have the capital to compete with my sister-in-law. ”
Gu Jinyu said softly: "You can raise the fetus with peace of mind, and leave these things to me." ”
"I don't have to worry about you doing things, I'll go back and rest first."
Gu Jinyu watched Gu Jinyun leave, and said softly: "Where is this, third sister, don't worry." ”
In the early morning of the next day, Gu Jinyu went to her grandmother's yard to say goodbye as usual, not only did she go, but several of her sisters and cousins all came, including Gu Yao.
They sat around and ate breakfast.
Mother Chen came over with a soup cup, "The old lady asks the masters to use medicinal food, nourishing medicinal food." ”
Old Madam Gu was in good spirits, dressed neatly and sat on the soft couch, "I'm old, and my energy can't keep up." You don't have to worry about me, just take care of yourself and don't get tired. ”
Everyone said yes.
Gu Jinyu smiled sweetly: "Grandmother is not troubled?" ”
"Nope."
Old Madam Gu smiled and said, "I'm fine now, and it won't be a problem to live another hundred and eighty years." It's you, don't rely on me to support you, and become more and more willful. ”
"Grandmother ......"
"Jinyu is also older, I see that after you married into the Xie family, you have a very comfortable life, so I won't say much."
"Grandmother." Gu Jinyu said coquettishly, "Don't always urge me." I have already passed the crown, and I will get married in two years, so you are not afraid that your granddaughter will not be filial? ”
"You won't."
"I will." Gu Jinyu said solemnly: "The granddaughter will be filial to her grandmother." ”
Old Madam Gu sighed, "Jinyu has never disobeyed me, I believe in you, but if you refuse to tell the truth, I just can't let go, so I can only force you to say it." ”
She held Gu Jinyu's hand and was kind and compassionate, "I don't want you to go the wrong way and hurt yourself, especially not your future husband." ”
"Jinyu understands, grandmother, don't worry, I will think carefully and choose carefully."
"Well, if only you could think so." Old Madam Gu smiled with relief, "Jinyu, you are a blessed child, grandmother will not treat you badly, and my things will be left to you." ”
Gu Jinyu looked grateful, "Thank you grandmother for your love." ”
She sneered in her heart, the old fox was reluctant to marry Gu Jinyu after all, although this dowry was not much, but it was the foundation of the Gu family.
The amount of Gu Jinyu's dowry affected the Gu family's status among the court officials.
Gu Jinyu didn't think Gu Jinyu would lose to Gu Jia.
If she loses to Gu Jia, the Gu family will lose face, and Old Madam Gu's prestige will also fall to the bottom.
Gu Jinyu pursed the corners of her mouth, Gu Jia's luck was too good.
*****
Gu Yao had just woken up and finished freshening up, when Gu Shan came to knock on the door.
"Second sister, third cousin came to see you."
Gu Yao asked in surprise, "Third cousin?" Shouldn't she go to school with her second sister? ”
"She was drunk last night, and she only woke up when she got up early, and she got up early today to come to me, saying that she had something to talk to her sixth sister."
There was a hint of sadness between Gu Shan's eyebrows, "I can't stop it, and the third cousin rushed in." ”
Gu Yao said slowly: "The second sister will help me change my clothes, and follow me to see the third cousin." ”
"Sixth sister, I persuaded my third cousin, no matter what she asks, you don't have to agree to her, my father and mother will not allow you...... How can you be so confused. ”
Gu Shan was anxious, "The third cousin has been staring at your dowry......"
"You misunderstood me, I won't agree to my third cousin's request."
Gu Yao said softly: "Since the second sister is worried that I will suffer, it is better for us to meet the third cousin together."
Gu Shan hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, you go with me." ”
She was not afraid of her third cousin, but worried that Gu Yao would suffer.
Gu Jinyu is already difficult enough, if another Gu Jia pops up, wouldn't Gu Yao be in more trouble?
Gu Jinyu has no power and no power in the capital, except for Old Madam Gu, no one dares to provoke Gu Jinyu.
Gu Jia is different, the only aunt and grandmother in the Gu family's room, Gu Shilang's wife!
She is a mother-in-law, and she is qualified to meddle in the internal affairs of the Gu family, even if Gu Jinyu has to let Gu Jia go.
Gu Yao smiled and winked at Gu Shan: "Second sister, I am measured, besides, have you forgotten that my wedding date is in front of my third cousin?" I have my husband to protect me, and I have my grandmother's love, so no one is afraid. ”
looks like the sky is not afraid, and the earth is not afraid.
