Chapter 4: Grandmother, I'm afraid
The corners of Gu Chuyue's mouth stiffened under her sleeves.
Imperial Physician Li had already packed up the medicine box and said to Gu Mingyuan: "The old man has been practicing medicine for more than forty years, what does Master Gu mean by this?" ”
Gu Mingyuan was a little embarrassed, this Imperial Doctor Li was originally a imperial doctor in the palace, with a strange temperament, but he had superb medical skills, and he had always taken care of the emperor's body.
Later, the emperor died, and he did not want to stay in the palace as the head of the hospital, so he opened a medical hall in the capital, which was quite famous.
If you talk about official positions, Imperial Doctor Li is not as good as Gu Mingyuan, but he has higher qualifications, because he has taken care of the emperor's body, everyone respects him a little, but civil officials are thin-skinned, and Gu Mingyuan is no exception.
Just when the atmosphere was a little stiff, the old lady smiled lightly and said: "Imperial Physician Li's medical skills are well-known all over the world, Mingyuan is just too worried, if he offends Imperial Physician Li, I hope Imperial Physician Li understands Mingyuan's love for his daughter." ”
After bending down and bowing to Old Madam Gu, Imperial Physician Li said, "Everyone has a heart for a woman, and there are still patients in the old man's medical hall, so I will go back first, and come back another day to ask for peace for the old lady." ”
The old lady smiled, "Come on, send Imperial Doctor Li back to the house." ”
After Imperial Physician Li left, Gu Mingyuan's gaze moved to Gu Chuyue, with a cold face, a trace of distress in his eyes, but more anger.
"Now that you're back, my father won't punish you for sneaking away, go to recuperate, and have time to see your Aunt Chan, she is very worried about you."
Gu Chuyue put away her smile, the original owner's mother had passed away, and her father should be the original owner's stepmother.
After speaking, Gu Mingyuan stood up and slowly saluted the old lady, and said, "It's late at night, so my son won't disturb his mother's rest." ”
The old lady nodded, "It's dark outside, be careful when walking." ”
Gu Mingyuan bowed again, and then exited the house.
The old lady held her forehead with one hand and made a dull gesture, if it was an ordinary person, she would salute back at this time.
But Gu Chuyue is not an ordinary person.
She opened a pair of watery apricot eyes, ignored her injured leg, twisted and twisted very aggrieved to the old lady, looked up and said, "Grandmother, can I not go back to rest tonight?" ”
The old lady was a little uncomfortable with Gu Chuyue's sudden closeness, and Aunt Fang on the side saw it.
"Miss, the old lady is old, sleeps shallowly, can't hear a trace of movement, the eldest lady sleeps here, I'm afraid she is not comfortable in her own room."
Gu Chuyue flattened her mouth and shook her head, "But...... Grandmother, I'm so scared......"
The old lady put one hand on Gu Chuyue's shoulder, "Chuyue, what are you afraid of?" ”
"When I just went back to the yard, the inside was ...... There was no one inside, only bright lights, silent...... Grandmother, I ...... I'm so scared, it's scary......"
When the old lady heard this, her expression froze, and she turned her head to look at Aunt Fang, and saw Aunt Fang nodding, "What's going on, why don't you even have a person to serve in the courtyard of the eldest daughter of the dignified bachelor's mansion, and it's not a joke to spread it?" ”
"In recent months, it is almost time to the lady's flower party, the lord said that he was going to have a banquet, and the maids and women in the house went over to help, and the lord also said that the slave and maid should go to the staff and staff, but the slave and maid refused, and the old lady cannot lack personal people around her."
Hearing this, the old lady put the jade chuan in her hand on the table, "Mingyuan's daughter-in-law's flower party is still a few months away, it is really grand, and she started to prepare so early, but no matter how busy she is and lacks people, she can't be transferred from the eldest lady's house, and when the dignified young lady returns home, there is no one to serve in the courtyard, what kind of system!" ”
Fang Gu put one hand behind Mrs. Gu's back to give her a soothing, "What the old lady said is right, the old slave will go to see it early in the morning." ”
Gu Chuyue shook the old lady's legs, "Grandmother, I'm afraid...... Grandmother~"
She didn't hesitate to start being coquettish, with a fleshy face and simple apricot eyes, especially with a wound on her face, not to mention how pitiful.
"Okay, don't shake it, my head is swayed by you, Aunt Fang, you let people pack up a room and come out, and let Chuyue stay for one night."
Gu Chuyue smiled at this time, and said sweetly to the old lady, "Thank you, grandmother." ”
Aunt Fang didn't take her personally, but instead recruited a little maid to help her over.
It was late at night, and the old lady hadn't slept so late for a long time, so Aunt Fang gently removed the pearl hairpin and prepared to serve the old lady to sleep.
"Did Hatsuki fall asleep?"
"I'm asleep." Fang Gu put the last bead hairpin on Old Madam Gu's head into the jewelry box, and gently combed her hair with a sandalwood comb.
"She still sleeps at ease, before the amnesia is an upright, a little squeamish, although it is not good, but no one dares to bully her openly, this amnesia after the heart is simple, not to mention, and soft, hurt like this and pounced like a nobody, in this backyard will not be bullied to the head."
"Before the eldest lady lost her memory, she was not close to anyone except the Wang family, but according to the old slave, the eldest lady kept silent about the Wang family today, as if she had forgotten to be clean, and she relied on the old lady a lot."
When the old lady heard this, she snorted coldly and said nothing.
Fang Gu knew that she was talking about the old lady's heart, and continued: "The old slave just looked at the coquettish appearance of the eldest lady and the old lady, and the old slave's heart softened a lot. ”
The old lady didn't speak, she had no children in her life, Mingyuan was just the son of an aunt, and she became a sister-in-law after remembering her name.
Mingyuan is filial and respectful to her, but Mrs. Gu knows that this is either a kiss or a difference, not to mention that Mingyuan's mother is still living in the bachelor's mansion.
Fang Gu has been serving with the old lady for decades, and she soon noticed the changes in the old lady.
The old lady also somehow suddenly looked a little sad.
The older people get, the more afraid they are of loneliness, who doesn't want to be on her knees, but it's a pity that she has no children in her life.
"Saving someone's life is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, not to mention Miss Yan who saved my palace bachelor's mansion, I must prepare a generous gift and thank you."
"What the old lady said is very true." Fang Gu bowed her head and responded, "That young lady said that she was pushed down the hill, do you want to tell the master?" ”
The old lady's expression was cold, "Let's secretly check first, if anyone can't see my family's good, secretly retaliate, officialdom, the backyard must not interfere, I want Mingyuan to come forward, but if it is a dirty thing in the backyard, Mingyuan has been busy with official business recently, so naturally he doesn't need to bother him with such things." ”
Fang Gu was taken aback, the old lady was going to take action in person this time.
The old lady just sat quietly, thinking about the eyes like a frightened rabbit, and casually took a Buddhist book from the bed, and took down the pair of red and phoenix eyes.
If it's true, it's commendable.
If it is false, it is understandable.
Following.
Before Gu Chuyue woke up, she was helped up and washed by a group of maids, and before her eyes opened, she was already dressed up and helped to sit at the table.
She wore a hibiscus pink beaded skirt today, which was sent by Aunt Fang early in the morning, look at the pearls lit by the hibiscus stamens, all sizes are as big as her fingernails, and the color is lush, and it is worth a lot of money.
