Am I too eager!
Gu Shan pursed her lips and chuckled, of course she hadn't forgotten that Gu Yao had married Lu Houye, "Sixth sister is really a happy person." β
"Don't you envy me?"
"Envy?! What do I have to envy? I also have a fiancΓ©. β
"The second brother's marriage has been decided?" Gu Yao smiled and asked, "I thought that the second brother would have to be two years late before he could get married." β
ββ¦β¦ Oh, yes. β
Gu Shan lowered her head slightly, covering the complicated thoughts in her eyes, "I originally thought about my parents' fate, as long as I am well-behaved and obedient, my father and mother will find me a good family, regardless of whether it is a businessman or a noble family, they don't value my appearance and talent, they only value whether I can bring them glory." β
Gu Jinyu was softly relieved, "I can't blame my father and mother for this, my mother died early, and I am a concubine, and I was tortured by my mother-in-law." My father is a man and can't make decisions for me, I just hope that I can marry a virtuous and virtuous mother-in-law, so that my mother-in-law can hold me up and let me live a peaceful life. β
Gu Jinyu burst into tears, "I don't want to be like my aunt, but I don't want to be like my aunt, my mother disappeared when I was young." β
Gu Jinyu choked: "I'm most afraid of my aunt, I am afraid when she cries, I am very afraid of my aunt, but my aunt is still dead." I couldn't even get the last look at my aunt. β
Gu Yao patted Gu Jinyu on the shoulder, gentle as water to soothe: "I know that the second sister is very sad, I also came from that time, every time my aunt dies, I feel very painful in my heart, and I can't wait to rescue my aunt back." But my aunt went so suddenly that she didn't leave a single wish, so I could only stay by her bedside. During those days, I don't know how long I survived, and I almost collapsed. β
Gu Shan's eyes flashed slightly, and she couldn't help but look at Gu Yao, at this time, Gu Yao's eyes were red, and tears were rolling in her eyes, as if she had been greatly wronged.
"After the second aunt is sick, I am even more afraid of my aunt's death, so I must be strong, I must not let my father and mother worry, I can't make my father and mother sad, and I don't want to disappoint the second uncle."
"Sixth Sister ......"
Gu Shan's eyes were red, and tears rolled down, "I don't want to compare with my aunt, I am a concubine, and I am a concubine......"
"Second sister." Gu Yao grabbed Gu Shan's arm, "Don't think so, my mother will not treat her children badly." β
"But I'm ...... I always felt like I couldn't be better than my aunt. β
"How can there be such a comparison, no matter what, the second sister is my sister, I rely on you to take care of me all my life, and the second sister is the best sister."
ββ¦β¦β
Gu Shan burst into tears and smiled, wiping away her tears, "I shouldn't be cranky. β
"The second sister and the third sister don't have to quarrel, and they don't need to argue for me."
Gu Yao's tone was brisk, "I am a concubine myself, and I don't expect my parents to love me, but my second sister is married well, so she can take care of me and help me." β
Gu Shan's cheeks were crimson, "Sixth sister is so sensible, I really don't know what to do with you, you ...... How did you become like this? β
"I wasn't sensible before? Do I still have the past? β
Gu Yao hooked the corners of her mouth contemptuously, "You are all pampered ladies, I never expect you to understand my difficulties." β
Gu Yao grabbed Gu Shan and walked out quickly, "Let's go, don't delay the second sister to go to the banquet." β
Gu Shan hesitated for a moment, followed closely by Gu Yao, and the two went out together.
Gu Jinyu was practicing swords in the courtyard, and Gu Shilang stood aside to observe, his face was radiant, and he nodded with satisfaction.
Gu Jinyu wore a light pink embroidered bluegrass skirt shirt, with her hair in a bun at the back of her head, and two hostas inserted in her sideburns, looking dignified and elegant.
She held a sword in her hand, dancing in a chic and neat manner, and the blade of the sword drew a sharp sword light, like a meteor catching the moon, which was dazzling.
After a set of swordsmanship, Gu Jinyu put away his sword and stood in place, slowly exhaling the turbidity accumulated in his chest.
"Good, good swordsmanship."
Gu Shilang praised, "My daughter is really ...... compared to you Nothing. β
"You're ridiculous." Gu Jinyu smiled shyly, "It's just that I know a little bit about the skin, I still have to work hard to study and practice my swordsmanship exquisitely." β
Gu Yao: "......"
Gu Jinyu's face was serious and serious, and she didn't seem to be modest at all.
Gu Shan's eyes became more and more round.
Gu Jinyu is not only fighting poetry with Gu Yao, but even surpassing Gu Yao in swordsmanship.
She is obviously from a concubine, how can she be so powerful?
Gu Shan felt a deep sense of frustration.
If she can learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting well, she will not disgust her father.
She not only has to fight poetry with Gu Jinyu, but also has to test martial arts!
"Second sister." Gu Jinyu nodded at Gu Shan, signaling that she had seen her.
"Second girl, are you confident that you can win against Sister Jin today?"
Gu Yao asked softly.
Gu Shan bit her lip, "Sixth sister wait and see." β
She didn't know if she could win against Gu Jinyu.
Gu Yao clenched her fists, "Second sister, come on!" β
Gu Shan was on tiptoe, went straight to Gu Jinyu, and swept through thousands of troops with one move, majestic and majestic, quite imposing.
Gu Jinyu easily dodged, and then showed her superb martial arts, blocking Gu Shan's attack lightly.
The two fought in the courtyard, and others could only see that their swordsmanship was good, but no one could see which of them was superior.
After a stick of incense, Gu Jinyu stopped and said softly: "Second sister lost." β
Gu Yao's eyebrows curled, "The second sister really didn't disappoint me, when I just entered the mansion, I heard about the deeds of the second sister, and the second sister has always been the leader in the Zhenguo Mansion." β
"I'm not as good as the sixth sister, after all, the sixth sister is the girl of the Hou Mansion."
Gu Shan smiled faintly, "I have heard that the emperor has given the sixth sister the title of the county lord, although it is not the county lord of the county, but His Majesty is very fond of you, even the queen mother sees you differently." β
Gu Yao's face was frank: "I didn't expect Your Majesty to reward me with this honor, after all, I'm just a concubine." β
"Sixth sister is too modest, who doesn't know your name? You are the richest man in the capital, with countless industries under your name, and the rest of the shops are even more profitable. β
ββ¦β¦ If you don't mention it, I'll forget it. β
Gu Yao suddenly realized, "In the past, I studied step by step, except for occasionally asking my husband for advice, I didn't use the silver to buy things in the shop. β
"Won't you be reluctant to give up money?" Gu Shan asked in surprise, "I remember that the sixth sister once said that she is the most thrifty. β
"In the past, I was more in love with my second sister, so I was reluctant to give up the money. Now I have a good relationship with my fifth sister and sixth sister, and if I have anything to say, I don't have to hide it. β
Gu Yao slowly straightened out his sleeves, "I don't lack money, so naturally I don't care about spending silver, but since I have entered the palace to treat my mother's illness, I have to bring enough medicinal materials, silver, keep it for emergencies, I still have to use silver, and I have to support my family." β
"You're right."
Gu Shan nodded, "It's me who is too careful, and it's the best thing that the sixth sister doesn't blame." β
Gu Jinyu lowered her head, and a low and pleasant voice came, "Sixth sister, you just said that I am not worthy of being your sister, but I am the flesh and blood of my mother's sister, I have a very good friendship with my third sister, you shouldn't misunderstand me, you ......"
Gu Jinyu choked up and said, "I also know that you blame me, blame me for not being able to help, I ......"
"Third sister, don't cry, how dare I complain about the third sister?"
Gu Yao patted Gu Jinyu's shoulder comfortingly, and said softly: "I only hate that I can't help my second aunt, so I can only watch her being bullied." β
"Second sister, I'm not complaining about you, I just hope you can take control of the Hou Mansion as soon as possible and save my mother from prison!"
ββ¦β¦ Well. β
Gu Shan bowed his head heavily, "I will definitely do my best this time to live up to my father's expectations." β
Gu Jinyu sighed lightly: "Then please leave it to the second sister." β
Gu Siye's eyes flashed slightly, and he turned to leave, he was unwilling to continue listening to the girls' conversations, for fear that he couldn't help but interrupt Gu Jinyu's acting.
When Gu Yao saw her father leaving, the corners of her mouth twitched a little.
"Fourth Uncle is angry."
Gu Jinyu said softly: "Am I too eager? I should wait until the banquet is over to talk to Sister Gu Shan. β
"The fourth aunt won't let you go out, you must be suffocated."
Gu Yao easily grabbed Gu Jinyu's arm, "Where do you want to play?" I'll go with you. β
"I ...... I want to see my grandmother. Gu Jinyu said softly: "She has worked hard all her life, she has no male grandson under her knees, and she is a loving and tolerant old man, she must want to hold her great-grandson." β
Gu Yao's eyes flickered, and she said softly: "Grandmother is old, she likes quiet and clean days the most, let's not disturb her." β
"No, I just want to go and see my grandmother, I don't speak, I don't bother her old man, I just look at her from a distance, just say a few words to her, and ask the sixth sister to be fulfilled."
Gu Jinyu pleaded earnestly, her eyes were red, and she was dripping.
Gu Yao seemed to see Gu Yao, who was wronged and painful at the beginning, "Why should the second sister be strong?" Grandmother has been closed lately, and you don't know it, she hates the hustle and bustle the most. β
"I just miss her old man." Gu Jinyu said softly: "I heard my mother say that my grandmother eats fasting and worships the Buddha every day, copies Buddhist scriptures, and recites Buddhist scriptures. I think...... I want to tell my grandmother that I will be filial to her. β
Gu Yao pursed the corners of her mouth, "It's not appropriate for you to do this, grandmother won't change her attitude towards you because of this, but she will become more and more distant from you." If you insist on this, it will seem that you are unfilial. β
Gu Jinyu was stunned for a moment, and shook her head lightly: "I'm not accusing my grandmother of being indifferent and ruthless, I have always appreciated my grandmother's thoughts about me, but I want to prove myself as soon as possible." β
She slowly took a step back, her eyes calm, "Don't worry, I will never delay your marriage with your fourth brother and sister, I ...... I will find an opportunity to leave the capital and go to the countryside to live in Zhuangzi. I knew that my mother was for my own good, and I was worried that I would be wronged in the capital. β
"Second sister, you ...... Are you really willing?! β
Gu Yao asked in surprise: "I don't understand how you have been wronged over the years. β
The corners of Gu Jinyu's mouth twitched, barely maintaining her calmness, and replied lightly: "I'm used to it, it's just a change of mansion to live in, as long as I'm alive, I can make my mother feel at ease." Besides, the rural environment is more suitable for me to meditate, and I can avoid competing with Gu Lu and save my grandmother from embarrassment. β
"I ...... I won't stop you. β
Gu Yao hesitated for a moment and said softly: "Second sister, you are still young and don't understand the sinister hearts of people, you ...... You shouldn't be so simple. β
"I didn't feel simple, but I felt very grounded and comfortable."
Gu Jinyu smiled lightly on her lips, "Sometimes I feel very lucky to meet a group of you kind sisters, you will never hurt me, whether it was before or now, I believe in you." β
"But I don't trust myself."
