Chapter 48: Stewardship (1)

"Nonsense!" Gu Mingyuan's face sank, "The order of your parents, the words of the matchmaker, in the future, it is your duty to marry and have children, and it is your duty to take care of your husband's family, how can you say that you can ignore it?" ”

Gu Chuyue's head shrank when she was trained, and she flattened her mouth and said: "But the housekeeper is very tired, I'm afraid that I won't be able to do Aunt Chan like Aunt Chan in the future, and I will be criticized by others when the time comes......

Gu Mingyuan had no choice but to hold his forehead, and as soon as he felt that his eldest daughter was a little self-motivated, he exposed his lazy and unenterprising nature, and he really couldn't help but praise it.

"You, you, you ......" He didn't know what to say for a while, but he felt a headache after reading the official document all night.

"That's it, you will be thirteen years old at the end of the year, and you will reach the age of discussing relatives in two years, according to the elder sister, you are also at the time to learn housekeeping, if you really feel sorry for your aunt, then follow her to learn how to take charge of the house, help her, don't say those unreasonable words."

When Gu Chuyue heard this, she immediately complained: "Daddy, Aunt Chan is a good housekeeper, I can't do anything to make trouble for Aunt Chan, I still have to think about it...... Think again......"

Gu Mingyuan threw the chopsticks onto the plate with a "snap", hating iron and steel: "What do you want?" You just don't have to learn, otherwise you will be confused about how to serve the public when you marry someone and run the family in the future?

You are now the eldest daughter of the Bachelor's Mansion, this family is not yours, think about it again? From today on, you will follow your aunt Chan and learn how to be the master of the house. ”

She seemed to want to say something, but she was pressed down by Gu Mingyuan's eyes just before she opened her mouth.

She pouted and said aggrievedly, "Yes......"

As he spoke, he gave Gu Mingyuan a crystal shrimp bun and flattered: "Daddy, let's get angry, can't I go to learn...... Eat buns eat buns ......"

Gu Mingyuan gave her another look, and then picked up the chopsticks again.

After a busy night, my stomach was also a little hungry, and when I raised my hand to grab another one, I saw that the plate was already empty.

It seems like there's a full plate just now......

This is......

Let's take a sip of porridge.

He brushed his sleeves and prepared to serve a bowl of porridge, but as soon as he lifted the lid of the small stew pot, he saw that it was clean, and there was no shadow of fresh vegetable porridge, only two lonely vegetable leaves at the bottom of the stew pot remained.

This......

Gu Mingyuan's heart was depressed, and he found that his eldest daughter was gently wiping her lips with a silk handkerchief, and smiled at him, "Daddy, has you eaten well?" ”

Gu Mingyuan drooped his face, after a busy night, he ate two steamed buns, and he ate well?

But Gu Chuyue smiled as if she hadn't seen it: "If Daddy likes to eat, my daughter will come to bring you breakfast tomorrow." ”

Coming back tomorrow morning?

Gu Mingyuan coughed twice, and said in time: "You still feel at ease to follow your Aunt Chan to learn housekeeping, and send breakfast to your own kitchen house, you ...... tomorrow morning You don't have to come. ”

She grabbed another dried apricot, took a bite, and said a little slurred: "It's okay, my daughter can come to have breakfast with my father first, my father has been busy with state affairs recently, and he is getting thinner and thinner, and my daughter can't bear it." ”

Dine with him?

Gu Mingyuan glanced at the empty plates and stew cups on the table, and felt that not only did he have a headache, but his stomach also hurt.

If he comes back tomorrow, he will really be thinner and thinner!

"If Daddy doesn't speak, I'll take it as Daddy's promise?" Gu Chuyue tilted her head and grabbed another green plum.

"Ahem...... The study is important, not the place you should be, you don't have to come tomorrow. Gu Mingyuan said with a serious face.

"Alright then......"

It didn't take long for Gu Mingyuan to directly issue an expulsion order: "There are still a lot of official documents that I haven't read for my father, so you can go back first." ”

Gu Chuyue stuffed the last mouthful of dried apricots in her hand into her mouth, bent down and said, "That daughter will retire first, and Daddy must remember to eat on time." ”

Gu Mingyuan nodded, and when he saw his eldest daughter coming out of the courtyard, he asked the little maid to come in: "Pass the meal." ”

Seeing that the dishes on the table had been eaten clean, the little maid guessed that the old man was afraid that he was not full, so he dared to say: "Master, if you want to eat something, let the cook make the small one." ”

Gu Mingyuan: "Crystal shrimp buns." ”

"Yes, you wait, the little one will go to the kitchen."

As he spoke, the little guy withdrew, touched his head, and muttered, "My lord's appetite is really great today......

Garden Road.

Gu Chuyue was holding a purse in her hand, without a bundle, and the candied fruits in it were about to overflow.

Pearl counted how many the young lady ate on the side, and when she was ready to exceed five, she quickly snatched the purse.

Gu Chuyue walked on the gravel road, closed her eyes and took a deep breath of fresh air, the sun was shining on her body, warm.

She whispered, "Pearl, I'm hungry." ”

When Pearl heard this, she patted her head, "Look at the slave's memory, Miss hasn't eaten this morning, maybe how hungry she is, let's go back quickly, Miss." ”

Back in Mingyue Garden, Gu Chuyue felt that the muscles in her body were relaxed, and even her spirit was not so tense.

Pearl naturally saw the change in Miss, and put the longan black chicken porridge and osmanthus sugar steamed chestnut powder cake in Miss's hand, and said: "If Miss wants to take care of the house, it is easier to find the old lady, why bother to go to the old lady." ”

Gu Chuyue scooped the hot porridge in the bowl, and finally put her hand on the edge of the bowl, feeling the heat of her palm, and said lightly: "Daddy respects my grandmother, and I naturally know the simple way, but Aunt Chan has always felt that my grandmother is partial to me, and I am afraid that I have already had a dislike for my grandmother."

At this time, if my grandmother openly took the housekeeping power from Aunt Chan to me, even if Aunt Chan didn't dare to say a word, and Daddy didn't dare to say a word, but Daddy left a seed of dissatisfaction in his heart after all.

And I don't want to take care of everything, I'm fully responsible, I'm too tired, it's best now, it's my father who ordered me to study, even if Aunt Chan doesn't want to give me a piece of the pie, she doesn't dare to blow Daddy's pillow wind, after all, this is Daddy's idea. ”

But Pearl was still puzzled: "Why did Miss suddenly think of being a housekeeper?" ”

Gu Chuyue pursed her lower lip, the pearl was the personal maid assigned to her by her grandmother later, but after a few months of getting along, the pearl can be said to be loyal to her and meticulous.

Moreover, if that matter really wants to be investigated, it is indispensable to ask someone to run errands, and she believes in her own vision of people.

"Pearl ......" she took Pearl's hand and made her sit beside her.

"Although the consensus of the foreign academy is that I am greedy for play and have lost my memory, but you were originally from my grandmother's yard, and you should know that I returned home with amnesia outside."

Pearl nodded.

"I did have amnesia, but the mountain girl who rescued me at the time said that I was pushed down the hill to cause my amnesia, not myself."

Gu Chuyue said softly, as if she was not talking about herself.

"What?" Pearl's eyes widened in horror.

Gu Chuyue bit her lip and made a silent gesture with her.

Waiting for Pearl to calm down, she continued: "The mountain girl told me that it was a group of strong men who pushed me, and the collar was embroidered with the word 'Gu'. ”

"Then the young lady, why didn't you tell the master at that time?"

Pearl, apparently, was frightened.
