"When you said this, did you have confidence in your heart?" the old lady said while rolling her eyes.
Gu Qiang lowered her head and said with great respect: "Old Madam, blind filial piety is not a good thing. I think the definition of filial piety for Old Madam is that no matter what you say, you must complete it seriously. Then what's the point of living? ? Repeating the same path may seem safe, but it’s not interesting.”
Gu Qiang's voice was very low, and only she and the old lady could hear it. The old lady was indeed an old thing, even though she was very unhappy in her heart, and even shocked that Gu Qiang dared to talk to her like this, but she didn't show it on her face. It showed that she was just looking into Gu Qiang's eyes.
"Qian'er, it seems that you should face the wall and think about it. Don't think that because you are the princess, there is nothing you can do. After today, I will make you look good," the old lady said.
After today? Gu Qiang raised her eyebrows. She thought she would have tomorrow after today, but Gu Qiang could tell the old lady responsibly that she didn't have a few days to live.
"It's the old lady, but Qian'er sees that the old lady's face has been ugly recently, but she has taken too many supplements? Not all supplements are good, so you'd better pay attention." After Gu Qiang finished speaking, she turned around coldly to go with her. Gu Huaian sat together, and the old lady's eyes seemed to be glued to Gu Qiang's body.
As if she wanted to peel off a layer of skin with her eyes, Nanny Zhang walked out from behind the old lady, and then asked in a low voice: "Old madam, what the princess means... is there something wrong with your food?"
The old lady calmed down and thought about it carefully. Gu Qiang's expression seemed to know something, but what exactly did she know? It is said that this girl has stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion since she was a child and has not had much opportunity to study medicine, but what she said clearly meant that she had taken too many supplements.
Ever since Mrs. Ye brought herself that tonic, the old lady felt that her body was very good, even stronger than before.
"Mother Zhang, how does the old man look now?" the old lady asked softly.
Grandma Zhang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, rubbed her hands nervously, and then said: "This slave looks pretty good. After all, the weather has been bad recently, and it is normal for people to be tired..."
What would Nanny Zhang say? The old lady's face looked very bad at this time, as if she was about to die. Maybe when would she leave Hexi
Her life was very despicable to begin with, and she didn't want to risk her life just because of an avoidable word.
The old lady slowly raised her lips, her sneer spreading ruthlessly, her hands clasped gently on the table, and finally said: "Tell the truth."
Grandma Zhang knelt on the ground with a plop, and whispered in a trembling voice: "It's very bad, much worse than before."
The old lady's hands suddenly clenched together, her old finger joints turned white, and her body was trembling slightly. It took her a long time to sit there, and finally she said: "Go and check what Ye's family has sent to me. What on earth are these supplements!”
Nanny Zhang rolled down and climbed down, but her heart felt like a huge flood was erupting. This is not a good job. If Ye knew about it, he might be in danger.
After Gu Qiang sat down, Gu Huaian asked, "Did the old lady preach to you too?"
After speaking, he looked at Gu Qiang with a loving and pitiful look. He heard that she was already very happy for him after she became the princess. In fact, he didn't have to come, and it was not his original intention to make her so embarrassed.
Gu Huaian's original intention was very simple. As long as Gu Qiang could live a good life and be happy, he would be happy. When Gu Qiang sent Gu Su Liang to invite him, he did hesitate for a long time. How could he He didn't know that his going this time would definitely put Gu Qiang in a dilemma, but if he didn't come, Gu Qiang would be disappointed and sad, and his heart would also feel uncomfortable.
It was not what he expected. Gu Qiang was under huge pressure when she invited him over.
"Don't take their words to heart at all. I asked my brother to come here this time just to tell them that if they don't want to admit your existence, don't try to take advantage of you. That Miss Song Yun is not bad. I can't accept it. You are no longer a member of the Gu family and still need to be arranged by the Ye family." Gu Qiang said slowly, with a firm and calm tone.
At this time, Gu Huaian turned his head and looked at Gu Qiang with tender eyes. He was a dignified man, but he actually felt a sense of security in his sister.
Gu Qiang has really grown up and can think about everything so clearly and comprehensively. From this point of view, leaving her in the Prime Minister's Mansion is not as uneasy as before. Gu Qiang can live here alone. good.
"You don't have to worry about my marriage. Your brother, I can marry whomever I want, and it must be the person I like. Don't worry about that." Gu Huaian took a sip of the tea in front of him, but suddenly spit it out. , and said to Gu Qiang: "You, the Prime Minister's Mansion, don't seem to be doing very well. Is this tea for people to drink? Tomorrow you send someone to my place, and my brother will pack you a few taels of good tea. Let you also Give it a try.”
"That's a good feeling." Gu Qiang said.
The two brothers and sisters were sitting here chatting happily. Princess Changning over there said to Shen Zhongbai: "You finally came to the Prime Minister's Mansion today, why don't you go and see your concubine?"
The concubine of Shen Zhongbai mentioned by Princess Changning is naturally Gu Zhihua, who is sitting behind Gu Qiang and dressed up carefully. Her dress today was carefully selected by Ye and her husband in order to seduce Shen Zhongbai, hoping that he can return to Think about it, if you can improve your status to some extent, it is considered your best effort for Gu Zhihua.
Gu Zhihua's eyes were burning and he was staring at Shen Zhongbai for a moment, but Shen Zhongbai deliberately avoided this scorching gaze and looked at Gu Qiang very casually.
"Look at what she does. This woman is simple-minded and general in her actions. She is not worthy of my time at all." Shen Zhongbai said coldly, withdrew his eyes and turned to study the plate in front of him.
It is true that the girl does things without thinking. Princess Changning immediately thought of the peacock costume she wore at the flower viewing party. Every inch and every needle on it was pierced into her eyes. Until now Still lingering.
Princess Changning smiled calmly and said: "You are so heartless. From my point of view, Gu Zhihua likes you so much that I am afraid it will be you for the rest of my life."
"So what, she has to be me, but I don't have to have her." Shen Zhongbai's eyes were full of indifference.
"I know that you have always been romantic, but the Emperor's brother has already decreed this matter. You can't put it off. Marrying her early is enough to end her thoughts. I look at her eyes. You don't even move your body. I'm afraid not many people can do this, right?" Princess Changning said and turned to look at Gu Zhihua. She finally wore the right clothes today, but the material and style on her body are valuable. It's not cheap. Compared with Gu Qiang in front of him, he feels like he's trying to please others.
Princess Changning didn't like Gu Zhihua, but now she wore inappropriate clothes on inappropriate occasions, which made Princess Changning feel that this person was not worthy of the position of the princess.
In contrast, Princess Changning set her sights on Gu Qiang, who was wearing light-colored clothes and sitting quietly next to her eldest brother.
She was as elegant today as indifferent as chrysanthemums in autumn, but just sitting there, it was as if even the air around her was carrying the fragrance of chrysanthemums.
Princess Changning withdrew her eyes. It was true that she really wanted to take Gu Qiang into her pocket, but emotional matters were beyond her control. If he could really get his wish, how could he die
His eyes flickered, a little dry, thinking of the man who left forever, smiling freely and warmly in the peacock garden, and the sunshine was warm.
Princess Changning suddenly felt a little sad, then she stood up and said with a pale face: "I'm not feeling well, so I'm going to rest first. Don't cause any trouble here."
After saying that, he led a group of waiters behind him to the guest room in the backyard.
Shen Zhongbai raised his eyebrows, as if he was not surprised by Princess Changning's departure. For a long time, the eldest princess had always avoided emotional matters, and he didn't know what she was sad about.
After the banquet, Gu Huaian was sent to the door. Gu Qiang smiled and said, "Brother, you must remember what Qian'er said to you. Be careful in everything. If anything goes wrong, you must say hello to me in advance."
Gu Huai'an stretched out his hand, touched Gu Qiang's head, and then said: "I remember. You also have to take care of yourself. If you don't live well in the Prime Minister's Mansion, tell your elder brother that he can support you. "
How could Gu Qiang not know about his brother's financial resources? But what she needs is not money, but the title of the daughter of the prime minister's house.
This is the only benefit that the Prime Minister's Mansion can bring to him. What about feelings? That is the least valuable thing here.
Back in the courtyard, Gu Qiang was just about to sit down when she saw Gu Suliang walking in from the courtyard, hesitating and saying with an embarrassed expression: "Girl, the third prince wants to invite you to go out for a walk."
Gu Qiang put the hairpin in her hand on the table, turned around and said coldly: "Go and tell the third prince that Qian'er is not feeling well and needs to rest."
Before Gu Suliang had time to speak, he heard a voice coming from the courtyard. The voice was clear and contained a smile, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
"Why does this prince think that Qian'er's complexion is quite good? Doesn't it mean that he doesn't want to travel with me?"
This voice was too familiar to her. It was Shen Zhongbai, but she didn't expect that he could follow her. Although I was unhappy in my heart, I couldn't show that I was very happy on face. I hurriedly greeted him, smiled and saluted, and said: "It is Hanyuan's blessing that the third prince can come, but please forgive me, Qian'er can't." I went to visit the garden with the prince."
