Chapter 310 Reminder
At the end of June, the sun is on fire.
Gu Jinzhi sweated all the way from home to the old house.
The clothes are sticky and uncomfortable.
Chunqiao, the maid of the eldest aunt, came to pick up Gu Jinzhi.
Chunqiao asked two rough women to lift the rattan chair.
Gu Jinzhi sat in a rattan chair and wandered to the upper room of the main courtyard.
The eldest aunt put ice in the east room, and the cool air gently brushed her cheeks, as if the hungry and thirsty person had met the agar jade liquid. Gu Jinzhi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It's really hot today."
"Isn't it?" The old lady smiled and said, "I sit in this room and feel sweaty, not to mention under the poisonous sun? The green brick road is hot, and I'm afraid the horseshoe will be burned. Why are you so hot to see your aunt?
Gu Jinzhi sat down with a smile.
The maid brought her a cup of iced sour plum soup.
Gu Jinzhi shook his head and said with a smile, "I just came in from under the poisonous sun and dyed the heat all over. The room is cold again. If you drink this kind of iced thing, the heat poison will accumulate in your heart. It's time to get sick. Just pour a cup of warm tea.
The old lady smiled and said that she was particular.
The maid really made tea again.
Gu Jinzhi took a drink and moistened his throat.
"Did your mother ask you to come here?" The lady asked her again.
Gu Jinzhi shook his head, put down the tea cup, and smiled before saying, "Actually, it's nothing. I just want to see my aunt. The fourth sister went to my place yesterday. I thought that on such a hot day, the fourth sister could come out to comfort my mother. This is her filial piety. With my sister's example first, I dare not be unfilial, so I came to say no to my aunt.
The old lady knew the purpose of Gu Jin's arrival.
Gu Shanzhi hit a wall with the eldest lady and went to find Gu Jinzhi.
She knew that Gu Jinzhi had a jade card walking in the palace.
That was given to her by the emperor in the early years.
"What did your fourth sister say when she went to your place?" The eldest lady didn't go around in a circle and directly asked Gu Jinzhi, "Did I tell you to go to the palace again to see the Empress and other things for her?"
Gu Jinzhi nodded and said with a smile, "Amber, did she come to you first?"
The old lady did not deny it.
"... The fourth sister said that she always has bad dreams these days, and there are often ladies in her dreams. She was very worried about the Empress. She asked me to go to the palace to say no for her and told the Empress that she missed her very much. I thought that if it was normal, it wouldn't matter if I went there for her.
It's just that before, the prince recently built a new mansion, and the prince's servant's lecture has not been decided yet. The fourth brother-in-law is studying in Hanlin Academy again. If I had gone to the palace before, the Empress only thought that I was going to say something for my fourth brother-in-law, and I thought it was the meaning of home. At that time, the Empress will reveal a few words to the father-in-law of the ceremonial supervisor, and the fourth brother-in-law will definitely be elected.
But does this mean the fourth sister or the fourth brother-in-law? I don't quite understand.
I was afraid of helping, but I couldn't say a good word, so I refused the fourth sister, saying that the Empress was fine in the palace. The fourth sister didn't give up much and said she would come to see me again today. I thought that since she was coming, it would be better to go to my aunt and ask her. Gu Jin's way.
The old lady gently shook Gu Jinzhi's hand and said gratefully, "You are a child. Fortunately, you came to tell me. Remember what I said. Don't get involved in this matter.
Gu Jinzhi understood it all.
She nodded and said, "I know my aunt. If the fourth sister comes to me again, she will say, let her talk to her aunt.
The lady nodded: "That's it! Sister Jin, my aunt also said something to you: From beginning to end, it was your fourth sister who used us as fools. The Yuan family is behind the back, with a good calculation, let us be a big head.
Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "It turns out that the Yuan family didn't say anything. It's all the meaning of the fourth sister? They don't want to owe us a favor, and they want us to take the initiative to help. Does the fourth brother-in-law still hate me for saying that he may not be able to have children?
The old lady sighed helplessly.
Gu Jinzhi said again, "The fourth brother-in-law is too strong, and the fourth sister loves her brother-in-law too much."
In her words.
Everything is because Gu Shanzhi loves Yuan Yuye too much.
And Yuan Yuye is too arrogant.
"Auncle, now that I have made it clear, I'm relieved." Gu Jinzhi smiled again, "I haven't been here for a long time. Let me see if my sister-in-law and third sister-in-law go."
The old lady nodded and asked her to go quickly.
"I'll eat here at noon. I'll ask someone to prepare your favorite bean jelly tofu." The old lady said.
Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "Thank you, aunt."
She was accompanied by a maid to hold an umbrella and went to the yard of grandma Lin Manjing.
It was too hot. When Gu Jinzhi arrived at Lin Manjing's yard, his face turned red.
Lin Manjing looked at it and was heartbroken: "Why is Qimei coming in such a poisonous day? Come in and sit down, sit down."
Then he also asked someone to take the iced fruit to Gu Jinzhi to eat.
Gu Jinzhi refused and told Lin Manjing what he had said to the eldest lady.
Lin Manjing quickly asked someone to take down the fruit and change it for a cup of warm tea.
"...Your eldest brother is in the countryside, and he cooks and does the laundry by himself?" After saying a few words, Lin Manjing turned the topic to Gu Chenzhi.
In spring, Gu Jinzhi went to the countryside to live for a few days. He brought some seeds for his eldest brother to his sister-in-law and let his sister-in-law plant them in the yard.
They are all vegetable seeds from the countryside.
That time, the sister-in-law took Gu Jinzhi and said everything for the whole morning.
She asked Gu Jinzhi to tell her everything about her eldest brother.
Now, she is asking again.
She asked this question last time.
She really misses her eldest brother.
Gu Jinzhi replied seriously: "Yes. Country people cook their own food and laundry. The villagers like the eldest brother very much. Aunt Li often delivers food to her eldest brother and helps him with the laundry. The eldest brother won't let..."
Last time, Gu Jinzhi carefully introduced Aunt Li.
This time, Lin Manjing did not ask Aunt Li.
She asked all the details. Hearing Gu Jin's words, her eyes were burning with expectations.
"There is still more than half a year left. When the eldest brother's filial piety is over, he will go back to the city." Gu Jinzhi comforted Lin Manjing, "Sister-in-law can also write to the eldest brother."
"What letter do you write?" Lin Manjing was a little embarrassed and said with a smile, "He is doing well in the countryside, so I'm relieved. The family sends them rice and food every month. I'm embarrassed to ask more questions.
Gu Jinzhi laughed.
Lin Manjing's face turned slightly red.
After chatting for about an hour, the heat on Gu Jinzhi's body dissipated.
She smiled and said to Lin Manjing, "I haven't been here for a long time. I don't know if the third sister-in-law and Brother Kai are well..."
"It's good." Lin Manjing smiled and said, "Brother Kai can already walk and call his mother."
Brother Kai turned one year old on the eighth day of May this year.
Because of the Gu family's filial piety, Brother Kai's washing of three, one month and one year old are all simple.
Although Brother Kai is the eldest grandson of the next generation of the Gu family.
The eldest grandmother asked the wet nurse to take good care of the sister and the sister, and took Gu Jinzhi to the third grandmother's yard.
The third young master Gu Qingzhi is also at home.
He is teasing his son at the moment.
Grandma and Gu Jinzhi came, which made him a little embarrassed.
The secular world thinks that it seems to be a little out of style to play with the grandson and hold his son.
The third grandmother came out of the inner room and saw Gu Jinzhi. She was overjoyed: "Is the seventh sister here? On such a hot day, you are not afraid of being infected with heat poison.
She is very kind to Gu Jin.
Then, she asked Gu Jinzhi what he was doing, "What kind of emergency, such as the poisonous sun ran over?" Don't leave this time. Stay here for one night and come back when the heat goes down tomorrow morning.
Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "I'll go back when the sun goes down. I'm afraid I can't stay overnight. My father fell on his leg and wanted to be served.
She found an excuse.
Although this excuse is empty, it is her filial piety, and it is not easy to keep her.
The third grandma asked her again what she was doing.
Gu Jinzhi had to say, "I have something to tell my aunt."
She didn't know about the fourth sister. Her aunt was not going to tell her family, so she said it vaguely.
The third grandma stopped asking.
When it was almost lunch, the third grandmother left Gu Jinzhi and the eldest grandmother to have dinner.
"My aunt said that lunch was prepared at noon." Gu Jin said, "I'd better go there."
The third grandmother straightened her clothes and said with a smile, "I'll go to my aunt's place for a meal."
She wants to send Gu Jinzhi to the past.
Grandma laughed and said, "In that case, I'll go too." It's time for me to scold us for not winkling and then make a comeback.
"No matter, no matter." The third grandma smiled and said, "You have to take a breath in the cold water."
All three of my sister-in-law laughed.
They took Gu Jinzhi to the first lady's room.
Just at the gate of the yard, I met Mrs. Yuan.
We met each other. Except for Gu Jinzhi, they were all a little surprised.
Mrs. Yuan hurried to salute everyone.
Gu Jinzhi and others also returned the gift.
The four of them entered the eldest wife's yard together.
The third grandmother glanced at the eldest grandmother and asked her with her eyes if she knew what Mrs. Yuan was doing. Grandma agreed, shook her head gently, and then glanced at Gu Jinzhi.
The third grandmother vaguely guessed a little, so she didn't squint and entered the main courtyard.
"Madam, why did you come here at this time?" The old lady pretended to be stunned, "Oh, I haven't prepared enough food in the small kitchen today."
The third grandma hurriedly said, "We have also prepared it. Let's bring it over and eat it together. They are all relatives. You don't have to be polite.
Usually, when preparing meals, you have to cook more.
Add Gu Jinzhi and Mrs. Yuan, Madam, this meal is still enough.
The eldest lady said it was not enough because she wanted to dismiss the eldest grandmother and the third grandmother.
The third grandma doesn't want to leave.
She is more concerned about the fourth girl. Seeing Mrs. Yuan coming, it was naturally the business of the fourth girl, otherwise she would not have arrived at this time.
Before the eldest grandmother could speak, she robbed the third grandmother. She had to stand behind and look at her mother-in-law's face.
If the eldest lady is really in a dilemma, the eldest grandmother will take away the third grandmother.
Fortunately, the old lady doesn't care very much.
She smiled and said, "In this case, I will neglect my in-laws today."
"Where is it?" Mrs. Yuan said with a smile.
She sat down and gently wiped the sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief.
There was no timidity in her eyes, and Yongrong calmly looked at such a big family as the Gu family.
After being in-laws for so long, the eldest lady has never seen Mrs. Yuan feel a little guilty.
Out of the merchant's house, she has learned old-fashioned, read books, and has insight. Even the eldest lady has to admit that she has lost to her.
The third update. Sisters, if you have a pink vote, just vote for it. Love everyone! RS
