Chapter 34: Wang's Estrangement
Return to Bright Moon Garden.
Gu Chuyue leaned on the pear wood chaise longue, looked at the dark yellow box in front of her, and rubbed her temples.
She turned over on the chaise long.
Outside, everyone knows that Gu Mansion has two concubines, Gu Chuyue and Gu Fangfei.
But the magnates of the capital also knew that the Wang family was promoted from the maid to the position of the stepfamily, and Gu Fangfei became a concubine, although they are all concubines, but the steproom and the original partner are different after all.
The daughters born to the original spouse are also different from the daughters born to the stepfamily, in terms of identity and status, Gu Fangfei is far inferior to Gu Chuyue, but Bachelor Gu obviously loves the second daughter more, and there is no obvious difference in status in the Gu Mansion.
Superficial differences can be changed, but qualitative differences can never be changed.
In the days when she was in contact with Gu Fangfei, she could clearly feel that her second sister still liked the original owner very much, and although she had a bad attitude towards the original owner because of the previous estrangement, she did not have any bad intentions.
But after going to the Hidden Jade Pavilion a few times, because she heard Pearl say that the original owner and Aunt Chan had an intimate relationship, but after contact, she always felt that Aunt Chan was really good to her, but there was a faint alienation between the words, no matter how enthusiastic the tone was, there was still alienation hidden in the subtle expression.
She doesn't do anything that a stepmother should do, and sometimes she even does it more thoroughly, as if she is following the rules, but she doesn't have much sincerity.
After all, a big family like the Gu family, I don't know how many eyes are staring outside, and there is a majestic old lady watching inside.
If you do something wrong, you will be criticized, and the old lady will be dissatisfied.
In ancient times, there were very few stepmothers who did Aunt Chan's part, which was already very good, but there was one more thing between them-
The original owner had a big disaster before, that is, Gu Fangfei fell off a horse, although this incident was done by the original owner, she had no memory, and even the pearl described the situation at that time vaguely, but Aunt Chan really didn't have any estrangement in her heart?
Gu Chuyue rubbed her temples clockwise with both hands, she was already alienated, plus the original owner caused her biological daughter to fall from a horse, she didn't believe it if there was no barrier, but as a mother, she could understand the estrangement caused by her daughter's fall from the horse.
As far as she is concerned, it really doesn't matter if she is really good to her or not, as long as she is really good to her and doesn't worry about it, such as her grandmother and her old man.
Originally, she received a box of gifts today, she was thinking about picking a few to send to her second sister, but after thinking about it, An Zhongyi gave her alone, without the second sister's share, what if Aunt Chan saw it and thought about it?
In the end, Gu Chuyue still chose two pieces of silk and a few pairs of bracelets and beads to send over, after all, it was her own heart, I think Aunt Chan should be able to feel it......
She called the pearl and asked her to deliver it in person as a sign of sincerity.
It was getting late, and Pearl pulled together, after all, she was holding something in her hand, and it was difficult to carry a long lamp.
Only a few rooms in the main room of the Jade Pavilion were still lit, and the maid who kept vigil immediately went to tell Chang mother as soon as she saw the pearls in the yard of the eldest lady.
Mother Chang frowned slightly, how could the eldest lady send someone over at this point, Mrs. was already ready to rest, she lifted the curtain and went out, and saw the pearl holding the satin wooden box, and said politely: "Why did the pearl girl come over at night?" The second lady and the lady have already rested. ”
Pearl said: "Mother Chang, today the second son of An sent some silk jewelry, the eldest lady picked out a lot, and asked the slave maid to run errands to send it to the second miss, saying that the patterns are all liked by the second miss, and the mother is bothered to transfer them to the second miss." ”
Mother Chang took out a piece of broken silver from her sleeve and handed it to Pearl, saying, "Trouble Miss Pearl to run away, the eldest lady is really hearted." ”
Pearl didn't ask for it, "It's not early, the eldest lady is doing her homework and waiting for the slave to go back to sharpen the ink, so Pearl will retire first." ”
"Pearl Girl walks slowly." Chang's mother said.
Chamber.
Wang, wearing a white shirt, was facing the mirror to unload the hairpin, and after hearing the sound, he saw the thing the maid was holding through the bronze mirror.
Chang's mother said, "Madam, this is sent by the eldest lady." ”
Wang touched the embroidered pattern on the silk and said softly, "This is not like a popular pattern in the capital. ”
"Madam, the old slave heard that the eldest lady came out of Shouhui Hall with a box today." Chang's mother said while putting away the hairpin on the dresser.
Wang stroked his sideburns and smiled lightly, "It seems that the things sent by Second Prince An are just sent to Shouhui Hall for a passing motion." ”
"Madame means...... This thing was originally given to the eldest lady? Chang's mother exclaimed.
Wang bent the corners of his mouth, with some irony, "If it weren't for Chu Yue alone, with the old lady's shrewd temperament, she must be impartial on the surface, how could I let Chu Yue move away in a box, for fear that I, as a stepmother, would be jealous of her ideas." ”
Chang's mother listened to it and said unfairly: "This second son An is also, obviously the same daughter-in-law, how can he be so biased, although our second lady doesn't want him to have this idea, but also wants to be reasonable, and yesterday he said that he was fair, and today he did such a thing." ”
Wang glanced at the things that the maid was holding in her hand, sighed and said: "Although they are all concubines, in the end, one is born to the original match, and the other is born to the stepfamily. ”
Tears suddenly appeared in Wang's eyes, "But she was born in the belly of the young lady, and she is protected by the old lady, so it is not impossible to overcome many disasters, especially when Fei'er was ten years old...... Mom, I'm really scared to think about it now. ”
Mother Chang comforted: "Madam, people are watching the sky, and the disasters that the eldest lady has done will be punished by God, and the future will not be as good as the second miss." ”
Wang nodded the corners of his eyes, his expression was gloomy, "Back then, I was just wishful thinking with the master, but I didn't expect God to give me such a punishment. ”
"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, now Fei'er is a little lower than the first month everywhere, but I was afraid that Miss didn't expect that her daughter would be married to a sick and weak son as soon as she was born.
That's it, since God let her come back alive, there must be a providential arrangement in the future, and she has suffered a lot of sins this time, which can be regarded as offsetting with Fei'er, and now the old lady is staring at it tightly, what else do I do. ”
"What did the eldest lady send today?"
Wang felt upset when he saw those things, "Throw it to the warehouse, don't let Fei'er see it, there doesn't have to be any sisterhood between her and Chuyue, just be polite, after all, the nature is difficult to change, who knows when Chuyue will recover her memory and do something like last time to Fei'er." ”
Chang's mother immediately ordered, and the two little maids went to the warehouse with their things.
"Is Fei'er back?"
