Chapter 13: Grievances
After returning home, Jiang Fuyue asked Shocking to go to the small treasury to pick up some gifts, and sent them to the Jinguo Mansion with the gilded pearl Bu Shao.
Gu Yu was busy storing the supplements brought back from the Jinguo Mansion into the small warehouse of Shaoguang Courtyard, and asked someone to register and make a book, and did not forget to send a copy to Lin Niangzi in the small kitchen.
Then, Gu Yu went back to the study.
"Madam, this is Lin Niangzi's newly made hibiscus lotus seed cake, you can taste it." Gu Yu put the tray in his hand on the table, turned his head and saw that Jiang Fuyue had already laid out the paper, so he couldn't care about it, and hurriedly went over to grind the ink.
Jiang Fuyue went to the bookshelf and took a mahogany box, picked out some colored ink from it, and put it on the table.
Seeing this, Gu Yu simply went into battle with both hands, both prongedly, and his mouth was not idle: "Madam, go and taste the hibiscus lotus seed cake, it's not delicious when it's cold!" ”
Seeing that she was so busy and there was nothing crispy or not, Jiang Fuyue couldn't help but feel a little helpless, so she still picked up a piece and tasted it.
The puff pastry is fragrant and crispy, and it is sweet in the mouth.
But Jiang Fuyue didn't like to eat dim sum, so she only ate one bite and put it down: "It tastes good, I want to come and meet your appetite." ”
Gu Yu's eyes lit up, and the movements in his hands sped up a few points, and after a while, all the colored ink picked out by Jiang Fuyue was polished.
In the matter of grinding ink, Gu Yu has a bit of childish skills, although her movements look urgent, but the ink that is ground out is moderately thick and smooth, and there is not even a single particle in it.
Gu Yu reloaded the ink strip neatly, then went to the side to clean his hands, and happily held the plate of hibiscus lotus seed cake and ate it.
Jiang Fuyue looked at Gu Yu, who was eating wildly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.
She walked back to the table and raised her pen to paint, the form of the thousand-year-old lotus flower in the lotus lake today began to gradually appear on the paper, Gu Yu sat aside with a porcelain plate, quietly eating hibiscus lotus seed cake.
The afternoon sun shines obliquely, and the room is quiet.
Soon, Jiang Fuyue made the last stroke, and the magnificent scene seen by the lotus lake today was finally perfectly presented on paper.
The lotus leaves are lifelike, quite charming, the lines are smooth and natural, and the colors are also elegant and harmonious, which shows the superb skills of the painter.
Gu Yu came over with the seal in his hand, his face full of surprise: "Madam, you haven't started painting for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be better than what you drew before!" ”
Since marrying into the Hou Mansion, Jiang Fuyue has been riddled with trivial matters, even if she is occasionally interested, she can only simply follow the shadow and draw a few strokes, and she has not painted by herself for a long time.
Jiang Fuyue smiled silently, used a seal on the painting, and said, "Go back and find a master to come over and frame this painting well." ”
"Yes!" Gu Yu nodded in response, but his gaze still did not take his eyes off the lotus picture.
At this time, the stunned person who went to the Jinguo Mansion to give a gift came back, and after the salute, he saw that Gu Yu could see the painting, so he also walked over to take a look, and this look, he couldn't take his eyes off it: "Madam, you are so good at painting!" ”
The two looked at the painting for a long time, and finally they were willing to put it away and chatted aside.
"When the slave maid just came back, I saw Feng Gongzi crying outside Moxiangju, and I didn't know what grievances I had suffered, so I cried very sadly." Shocked.
Gu Yu pursed his lips and said, "The two sons in our house were both raised by the old lady as golden pimples, who in this mansion dares to provoke them without dying?" ”
In the past, Jiang Fuyue saw them in the backyard and often took the initiative to greet them, but they always turned a blind eye.
They don't even pay attention to Jiang Fuyue, the housewife, who dares to give them grievances in this house?
He shook his head and said, "Don't forget, there is now one more Mr. Enlightenment in the house!" ”
After a pause, he was shocked and said: "The slave maid specially went to inquire, and the maids of Moxiangju said that Li Juren has a bad temper, and he will scold people if he goes wrong, and when he teaches the two sons, they can often hear the sound of reprimands in the house, so they ......"
Hearing this, Gu Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Then it seems that it really is a thing to drop a thing?" I didn't expect these two sons to be pressed on the head by Li Juren, and they ...... tsk"
Jiang Fuyue frowned slightly.
Gu Liao and Gu Feng are not boring, but they are afraid that it will not be long before they have to make trouble, and then the old lady will have to ask her to deal with this mess again.
Thinking of this, Jiang Fuyue slapped the scroll in her hand on the table irritably.
——
Just as Jiang Fuyue thought, within a few days of An Li's birthday, Gu Liao and Gu Feng had a quarrel, and they went directly to the old lady.
Coincidentally, on this day, Sun Jingke came.
At that time, the two were playing against each other, and Mother Liu, who was next to the old lady, hurriedly came over and said that the old lady had something important to ask Jiang Fuyue to come over.
Sun Jingke, who was almost bald and didn't think about what to do next, raised his head suddenly, and two fine lights burst out of his eyes.
God help her!
She was about to speak, but Jiang Fuyue had already preemptively said: "It's really unfortunate, the young lady of the Jinguo Mansion is here today, I really can't leave here, and I ask my mother-in-law to be considerate." ”
Hearing this, Mother Liu noticed that the woman sitting opposite Jiang Fuyue had a noble bearing, and when she heard it again, this was actually the young lady of the Jinguo Mansion, and she was immediately in awe.
Mother Liu hesitated for a while, but still spoke: "Madam, there is really a big incident in the house, the old lady is old, I'm afraid she can't hold it back, and you have to come forward in person, Madame!" ”
"Mother Liu said with a smile, my mother-in-law is in the prime of life, her body is good, and she is the most noble elder in this Hou Mansion, what big thing can't be suppressed?" Jiang Fuyue said with a smile, "If I can't even suppress my mother-in-law, I can't do it even more, why don't I ask Hou Ye to come back and deal with it personally?" ”
Jiang Fuyue rarely said something like this, leaving no room at all, and it was clear that she was determined to ignore it.
After she finished speaking, Mother Liu opened her mouth and closed it again, repeating this several times, but she couldn't say a word.
Seeing that Liu's mother didn't leave, Jiang Fuyue was not in a hurry.
Her words have all come to this, and Liu's mother is definitely leaving, it's just a difference between a little earlier and a little later.
Sun Jingke stared at the chessboard in front of him bitterly, and suddenly looked up at Liu's mother, who still refused to leave.
She raised her hand and swept the chess pieces on the chessboard to the ground, and said angrily: "I didn't see me playing chess with your wife here, your Hou Mansion can't live without your wife?" If you don't have any eyesight, hurry down! Don't let me see you again! ”
Seeing that the young lady of the mansion was angry, Mother Liu was suddenly frightened, and she didn't dare to say a word more, so she quickly turned around and stepped on the hurried small steps and left.
As soon as Liu's mother left, Gu Yu asked someone to close the courtyard door.
Jiang Fuyue glanced at her, and there was a smile in her eyes that couldn't be hidden: "You are clever." ”
Sun Jingke breathed a sigh of relief and raised an eyebrow at her proudly.
