Chapter 42: My sister is not married to an ordinary person
Pearl thought for a moment, "It's pretty big." ”
"Can you hear it there?" Gu Chuyue looked inside.
Pearl thought about it again and affirmed, "I should have heard it." ”
Gu Chuyue's little face collapsed in an instant, and the well-behaved and lovely lady image she had originally prepared seemed to have been brought down by herself.
It's a little tricky......
Just when Gu Chuyue was annoyed that her voice was not smaller, the lame and serious old woman walked out again, her voice still hoarse.
"The old lady is awake, please Miss Gu in."
Gu Chuyue hurriedly got up, asked Pearl to help her tidy up her hair and clothes, took a deep breath, and raised a smile, "Pearl, take all the things dedicated to the old lady." ”
Pearl has long held the brocade box containing ginseng firmly in her arms, this thing is very valuable, even the concubine in the palace may not be able to have it.
After Aunt Yu left, although the ground was a little messy, it finally returned to its usual quietness, but before Gu Chuyue entered the house, she heard the old man's cough.
"Hatsuki has seen my aunt and grandmother."
She stepped forward and bowed.
Mrs. An was half-leaning on the couch, her temples were white, and she only had a plain forehead, and her face was gloomy.
His eyes were deeply sunken in the wrinkled skin, and his pale lips were faintly stained with unpolished blood.
She looked at the girl in the peach-colored dress in front of her, and a touch of sadness flashed in her eyes that remained a little clear.
"Good boy, come and sit."
Gu Chuyue dared to get up at this time, but as soon as she raised her head, her eyes were red, obviously an old man who was only a few years older than her grandmother, how could she ...... How did it get to where it is now?
What did Aunt Jade do to her aunt and grandmother?
An Yijing was also sad when she saw this, and stood aside and wept secretly.
Gu Chuyue sat next to Mrs. An, the old lady said a few words "good" again and again, she quietly looked at the bud-like girl in front of her, and kept muttering: "It's really like ......"
Gu Chuyue was a little confused, like whom?
"Is my aunt feeling better?"
Old Madam An laboriously raised her hand and touched Gu Chuyue's sideburns, and smiled weakly: "Much better, good boy, does the bruise on the back of your head still hurt?" ”
Gu Chuyue shook her head, her tone was full of guilt, "It doesn't hurt for a long time, it's just that I will visit my aunt and grandmother for a long time, I don't know that my aunt and grandmother were actually harmed like this by that Aunt Yu, I used to protect Aunt Yu, it's really stupid." ”
As she spoke, she couldn't help but redden.
Mrs. An looked at the girl in front of her kindly, as if she saw the high-spirited and straightforward self of decades ago.
She stretched out her hand to comfort her cousin, who was about to cry, "Your grandmother sent me a letter, how could I not know the reason, you are a good boy, but you were deceived by the disguise of the Yu clan. ”
Although Gu Chuyue said that she had vague memories of the past, she still remembered some of them, plus some of the news that Pearl went to collect for her, Aunt Fang explained viciously, and many of her memories before coming were almost recovered.
Seeing that her aunt and grandmother, who once loved her so much, were harmed so much, Gu Chuyue had mixed feelings in her heart.
"Auntie......" she choked up.
"Don't ...... cough cough cough ......"
As soon as Mrs. An pronounced a syllable, she began to cough uncontrollably.
"Grandmother!"
"Old lady!"
The lame woman handed over a piece of silk handkerchief in time, and Mrs. An pressed the silk handkerchief to her mouth, but did not move it away, so she covered it like this, and spit out a few words with difficulty, "Jing'er...... Bring...... Take Hatsuki to go outside, I'...... I'm tired......"
"Grandmother......" An Yijing suppressed her tears and refused to go out.
Gu Chuyue sat beside Mrs. An, and she could see the blood that was faintly soaked and exposed on the silk handkerchief.
She knew that Aunt An didn't want Sister Yijing to worry, so she took the initiative to get up and said, "Then Aunt Grandmother, you have a good rest, and Sister Yijing and I won't bother you." ”
Mrs. An nodded with satisfaction.
"Miss......" Pearl reminded in a low voice when she saw that Miss had forgotten the brocade box.
Gu Chuyue wiped the corners of her eyes when she heard this, she almost forgot what her grandmother asked her to bring.
She took the brocade box and put it in Mrs. An's hand, and said, "Aunt and grandmother, this is the thousand-year-old ginseng that your grandmother gave you, and she said that it was for you to replenish your body." ”
At the mention of Old Madam Gu, two sparkles sparkled in Old Madam An's eyes.
Gu Chuyue blessed her body and pulled An Yijing out.
Mrs. An lived in the most remote courtyard of the inner courtyard, and the way back and forth was much quieter than the other roads.
"Chuyue, am I useless...... I can't protect my grandmother......"
An Yijing lowered her head, looked at the stone road under her feet with teary eyes, and tears fell to the ground like beads.
Gu Chuyue stretched out her hand to hug the sister beside her, and comforted her softly: "My sister is the eternal pride of my aunt and grandmother, I think the last thing my aunt wants to see is that my sister is so arrogant." ”
"I can't stop my father, and I can't persuade my mother, I hate it, but I can't do anything, Chuyue, why am I just a woman, my father has been carried away by Aunt Yu, but I can't do anything, I don't want to marry at all at this time, I want to accompany my grandmother ......"
The more An Yijing spoke, the more excited she became.
"Sister Yijing is forbidden!"
Gu Chuyue pulled An Yijing to the side of the pavilion, and when she saw that there was no one around, she said softly: "My sister is going to get married in a few days, don't say this kind of thing again, otherwise it won't be criticized when it reaches the ears of that Chaoyang Hou?" ”
An Yijing also felt that she had lost her words, but she still cried with a sob, as if she wanted to vent all her suppressed emotions.
Gu Chuyue sat quietly on the side, and saw that her mood was gradually stabilizing, so she said: "Sister, don't say that you don't want to get married, my aunt's current physical condition should be clearer than me, why I set the wedding date in a hurry, my sister should also understand the reason, don't waste my aunt's hard work." ”
An Yijing's pair of jade hands were holding the silk handkerchief, her beautiful eyes were red, and she cried: "Grandmother will always think about me, but Chuyue, I hate it so much...... I hate it so much......"
Gu Chuyue took a silk handkerchief and gently wiped the tears on An Yijing's face, and there was no delicate brightness in her eyes.
Her voice was also a little choked, but more resolute, "If my sister really understands my aunt and grandmother and really hates it, she should marry her own beauty at this time, because my sister is not an ordinary businessman and magnates, but the son of the Marquis of Chaoyang who owns a fief. ”
Gu Chuyue's words woke An Yijing like spring thunder, she had always only thought about how to accompany her grandmother through this last part of the road, but she forgot how to repay her grandmother's good intentions.
She's so stupid......
An Yijing wiped away her tears and held Gu Chuyue's hand, "Chuyue is right, I want to marry out in style, and return to the door in March, I will no longer be the daughter of the General's Mansion who was beaten and scolded by my father, but the wife of the prince of the Hou Mansion." ”
Gu Chuyue nodded and smiled back.
