Chapter 8: Aunt Fang's Conversation
The maid hurriedly said: "Madam, the eldest lady's favorite dried cherries are gone, and I delayed my work because I went out to buy, so please calm my anger." ”
What else did Wang want to say, Gu Chuyue put down her chopsticks and said with a smile: "I don't have so many exquisite aunts, so many delicacies, and I don't care about being in a hurry to drink that sip of milk tea." ”
As soon as Gu Chuyue's words came out, not only the Wang family, but even the maidservants in the house who heard this had a stunned expression.
Is the eldest lady evil today?
Didn't lose your temper?
Didn't you drop the plate and the bowl?
Wang's expression froze, but it recovered immediately, and Chu Yue had amnesia, and she knew about it.
It's just that I didn't expect the amnesia to be so complete.
Gu Chuyue continued to eat, but after she finished eating, she still didn't see the stepsister of the original owner, although she didn't care, but Wang's face was not so good-looking.
Therefore, he looked at Gu Chuyue apologetically, "Chuyue, your sister is playful, it's really ......"
She didn't care at all, but was very cheerful and said, "It's okay. ”
Seeing Gu Chuyue's reaction and attitude, Wang sighed, it seems that this is really amnesia, otherwise, according to Chuyue's temperament before, although he would not have lost his temper directly to her, but his face drooped early, how could he say such a thing.
It's just that I lost my memory at this juncture, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.
"It's still the first moon to be sensible, and when your sister comes back, I'll ask her to apologize to you in person."
Gu Chuyue just smiled, she chatted with the Wang family for a few more words, and suddenly found that she had not heard her younger brother from the Wang family's mouth.
"Aunt Chan, what about my brother?"
When Wang heard her say the word "younger brother", his eyes were a little evasive, but he quickly replied: "Chu Yue forgot, Qing Shao accompanied the fifth prince to check the accounts." ”
"Oh, I don't remember much."
Then, the Wang family pulled her to say a few more words, and a maid told her that the owner of the Wang field was coming, and Gu Chuyue found an opportunity to go out.
After walking for a while, Pearl realized that this was not the way back to Mingyue Garden, so she asked, "Miss, where are we going, don't you go back?" ”
Gu Chuyue suddenly smiled mysteriously, "Don't go back, go and play with grandmother." ”
The pearl was originally from the old lady's yard, and I thought that the young lady might sneak out to play, but it turned out that she was going to the old lady.
"Didn't Miss dislike going to the old lady the least?"
Gu Chuyue blinked, her grandmother didn't have bad intentions towards her, why didn't the original owner like to go?
"Really?"
"yes." Pearl said firmly, "Miss always felt that the old lady had too many rules before, and she was also strict, except for the prescribed days of greetings, she usually didn't pass at all." ”
Gu Chuyue smiled, "No way, your young lady has grown up." ”
She quickened her pace, maybe she could catch up with her grandmother for lunch, and she could eat a little more~
It was only when I arrived at Old Madam Gu's courtyard that I saw Aunt Fang carefully closing the door of the house.
After seeing Gu Chuyue, Fang Gu simply bent down and whispered, "The eldest lady is here." ”
Gu Chuyue raised a sweet smile and said, "Aunt Fang and I don't have to have so many courtesies, by the way, is Grandmother in the house?" ”
"The old lady has just had lunch, and now she is resting inside, so the eldest lady will come back later."
Gu Chuyue glanced at the closed door and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for my grandmother to wake up and come back." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she was about to leave, but as soon as she turned around, Aunt Fang suddenly spoke.
"Has the eldest lady eaten?"
Gu Chuyue was a little unclear, so judging from Aunt Fang's previous actions, she didn't look like someone who would chat with her.
"I used it."
A very official smile appeared on Aunt Fang's face, and she said, "The old slave has just had a meal, I wonder if the eldest lady would like to chat with my old woman?" ”
Gu Chuyue also wanted to know why this Fang Gu was looking for her, so she agreed, "Okay." ”
In the corner of the courtyard there was a shady place, and there were two stone piers, and they sat down.
"Miss, it's really changed a lot."
She lowered her eyes and said softly, "I don't remember a lot of things." ”
Fang Gu has passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, her eyebrows and eyes are full of the kindness of the old man, and she said softly: "Sai Weng lost his horse, but he knows whether it is a blessing or not, although the eldest lady has changed a lot, but the old lady will always be the old lady." ”
Gu Chuyue smiled, her apricot eyes were shining, and said, "Grandmother loves me, I know." ”
"The old lady is getting older, even if she is a noble status, she hopes that there will be juniors who will take her knees, and the eldest lady will come and go around, and the old slave will look at the old lady and be in a much better mood recently.
And the old lady was the best in the capital city in terms of appearance and talent, even if the eldest lady only learned the skin of the old lady's many skills, then it was a real thing that could be handled. ”
Gu Chuyue also understood, this Aunt Fang wanted her to accompany her grandmother, a lonely old man, more, so she said so much to her, and talked about her grandmother's strengths as if she was selling a product, and she always came to learn the knowledge.
She pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Aunt Fang, don't worry, even if my grandmother is just an ordinary old man, I will often come over to pay respect, although Chuyue is stupid, I can still see who loves me the most." ”
Fang Gu patted her hand, "The eldest lady is a smart person, and she will definitely be the most blessed person in the future." ”
Gu Chuyue just pursed her lips and smiled, but she didn't speak.
Fang Gu removed her hand, stood up, and said, "The old lady can't leave people by her side, and the old slave is going over." ”
She was still sitting there, holding her pink cheek with one hand, looked at the closed door, and said casually: "Then Aunt Fang should go quickly, and I will sit down again." ”
When Aunt Fang passed, Pearl came over, holding lotus root powder, osmanthus steamed sugar cake and a bowl of clove bean curd, and put them on the stone pier where Aunt Fang was sitting just now.
"Miss, this is what the old lady prepared in advance, saying that when the young lady comes, if she is bored, she will pass the time."
Gu Chuyue held lotus root and osmanthus steamed sugar cake in one hand, and scooped bean curd with a small spoon in the other, eating happily.
I also remembered what Aunt Fang just said, how beautiful the old lady was when she was young, how noble she is now, majestic, rich, and famous, but she is lonely in her later years, and she is lonely from time to time between her eyebrows and eyes, which is clearly seen by Gu Chuyue.
A lonely old man who is willing to pay attention to her, she will also treat her sincerely.
She was in a cheerful mood, her appetite was even more open, and after a while, a large bowl of clove bean curd was at the bottom.
She was well fed and leaned on the pearl, unconsciously feeling a little sleepy.
This place is not sheltered, because of a locust tree, which has been flourishing for decades, so there is a shade.
Gu Chuyue fell asleep in a drowsy state, and didn't wake up until she heard someone calling.
"Hmm......"
She rubbed her eyes, not wanting to open them.
The person who came was a little maid, and said respectfully: "Miss, the old lady is awake, please go in." ”
"Hmmm......"
There was another shallow murmur, Gu Chuyue slept comfortably, and she didn't want to move at all.
"You tell Grandmother, I'll go in later, squint for a while, and ...... for a while"
Pearl was a little embarrassed, and saw that the little girl opposite was a little sorry and said: "When the old lady fell asleep, she ordered the small kitchen to cook dried milk fruit tea, and the milk tea could not be put away, and the taste was not good after it cooled, and it was boiled a lot, but it was a pity." ”
"What did you say?" Gu Chuyue half-opened her eyes and felt a little energetic.
"Dried milk tea." The little girl replied subconsciously.
The tip of her nose moved, and she licked her lips, "What dried fruit?" ”
