"Girl, it's getting dark, you should rest."
Baomei walked up to Sima Xiang and whispered, "If Madam knew that you were sleeping late, it would be distressing again."
"I know, don't tell your mother."
Sima Xiang put down the pen in his hand, looked at the words he wrote on the paper, and frowned slightly.
She heard that His Majesty was very fond of calligraphy, so he was very close to the emperor Gu Houye.
By chance, she had been able to see Gu Xianjun's calligraphy before. She can't even match Xianjun's words now, so what can she use to surprise His Majesty?
Gu Xianjun is more than two years younger than her, and her handwriting is powerful and graceful, but her handwriting is more than crafty, but not romantic enough.
Everyone said that the Sima family was extravagant, and the most important thing was the family of etiquette and law, but she knew very well that compared to the big room and the second room, their third room was much weaker, otherwise why would they move under the aggressiveness of the second room? come out.
Although the new home is very spacious, bright and exquisite, the location is not as good as the previous residence.
In the realm of the capital, the identity is not only a big house, but also a good location.
Their third room, at this point, is already lacking in confidence.
"Baomei, what do you think of Gu Xianjun?"
Sima Xiang removed the bead hairpin from her hair and spoke suddenly.
"Gu Xianjun is such a noble person, although the slave and servant have a chance to see the beauty because of serving the girl, but how can the servant know the character of the other party," Baomei gently pressed the top of Sima Xiang's head, "but it looks like a Easy-going people."
"Anyone?"
Sima Xiang recalled seeing Gu Rujiu these days. It seemed that she had never blushed. Even if she was not close enough to the noble ladies in Beijing, she had never seen anyone talking about her behind her back.
Even the girls from the Li family and the Sima family would inevitably have some gossip behind their backs.
A girl like Gu Rujiu, who is also quite popular in Beijing, most of the ladies will praise her when they mention her. Not easy.
Perhaps there is such a person in the world, who is born with affinity, and can get what others have worked hard to get without fighting or grabbing.
"Go to sleep too," Sima Xiang sighed, rubbed his forehead, got up and walked towards the bed, "Didn't send some fresh shrimps and crabs from Bie Zhuang a few days ago, I'll write a post tomorrow morning, You let someone take the post and send the shrimp and crab to Gu Xianjun."
Baomei was slightly stunned, but nodded immediately.
Gu Rujiu was a little surprised when he received Sima Xiang's post, especially when he heard that the other party gave him a basket of shrimps and crabs.
Spring is not a good season to eat shrimps and crabs. Sima Xiang asked someone to send a basket over. Is it really just because he couldn't finish it, and then let someone share it?
In other words, the news that he likes to eat fish and shrimp has already spread?
In other words, the news that he likes to eat fish and shrimp has already spread?
I just don't know whose hobby this Sima San wants to care about, she or... the little emperor?
She didn't have much friendship with Sima Xiang at all. If she really wanted to talk about friendship with a few girls from the Sima family, she could only have a few words with Sima Ling, and the others were just nodding acquaintances.
"This Sima San is really interesting," Hu Shi, who was sitting next to Gu Rujiu, was half-smiling. "My aunt has something suitable for returning gifts. If not, I still have some mountain treasures in my place. You can take it back to her."
"Since the second sister-in-law has it, I don't have to bother to prepare it," Gu Rujiu immediately turned around and said to Qiu Luo with a smile, "Qiuluo, you can go to the second brother's second sister-in-law's yard to get it later, don't be polite."
"You said everything the master said," Hu shi glared and reached out to pinch Gu Rujiu's face, "Let me see how thick this face is?"
Gu Rujiu hurriedly turned her head to avoid it. After the two aunts and sister-in-law laughed, Mrs. Hu corrected her expression and said, "When I was in the boudoir, I didn't have much contact with the Sima family, but this family has always taken a step forward and thought about three things. Step, my mind is very deep."
Looking at the post in his hand, the words on it are very elegant, it looks like it was written by Sima Xiang himself, and it also has a faint fragrance. When people see the post, they can think of the beauty of the beautiful woman who wrote the post. .
"Thank you second sister-in-law for the reminder, I took it down."
Gu Rujiu thought for a while, wrote a reply in front of Hu Shi, and then handed it to Hu Shi for a look.
Hu took the post with Moxiang. After reading it, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Young aunt has such a clever mind, this kind of reply is perfect."
When she was eleven years old, she could not have imagined that she was so thoughtful.
Sure enough, after Sima Xiang received Gu Rujiu's reply, she didn't send anything more diligently.
The reason is very simple. In Gu Rujiu's reply, although he thanked Sima Xiang, he also thanked several other girls in the Sima family.
This move clearly showed that she treated all the girls of the Sima family the same way, not only did not offend the Sima family, but also broke Sima Xiang's mind.
Although Sima Xiang had the intention to befriend Gu Rujiu and get close to the royal family, this did not mean that she did not have the pride of a first-class young lady. It was rare for her to bow her head once. After learning that the other party did not appreciate it, she would definitely not bow her head a second time.
After learning about the incident, Yang was very satisfied with how her daughter handled it.
"Although the Sima family is prominent, we don't have to be in awe of the Gu family. What they have in mind is their own business. If they want to take advantage of us, they absolutely cannot."
Yang shi looked at Gu Rujiu, "You are doing a good job, you are not rude, and you maintain our identity as Gu family."
"I just think that in the past, Sima Xiang treated me lukewarm.
Now that my second brother and I show our faces in front of the emperor, she becomes enthusiastic, which is quite boring," Gu Rujiu felt that Sima Xiang didn't really like her very much, so she thought she was like some lonely girls from aristocratic families, as long as Sima When Jia hooked her finger, she would lean on it eagerly.
Using this simple and rude way to attract people's hearts, what do you think of them as taking care of your family?
Spring and autumn have come, and another year has passed. Except for the two parties involved, everyone else has already forgotten about it.
When Gu Rujiu was twelve years old, Sima Ling performed the wedding ceremony, and Zanbin, the guest of honor, was a very famous female celebrity in the capital, which made many ladies in the capital envied for half a year.
After Sima Ling held the wedding ceremony, another year passed, and Sima Xiang, the third girl of the Sima family, also began to prepare for the wedding ceremony.
After Sima Ling held the wedding ceremony, another year passed, and Sima Xiang, the third girl of the Sima family, also began to prepare for the wedding ceremony.
It's a pity that Sanfang's influence in Beijing is not comparable to that of the big room, so the identity of the person who came to preside over Sima Xiang and the ceremony is naturally inferior to that of Sima Ling and those who attended the ceremony.
Originally, this was a normal thing, but I don't know which wicked person compared the two girls of the Sima family, which made many people in the capital think that the third girl of the Sima family is good, but she is bigger than the Sima family. For girls, it's still worse.
Gu Rujiu, who was a bystander, didn't know whether Sima Xiang felt uncomfortable because of this incident, but she felt that the people who spread these words behind their backs might not just mean gossip.
Because these words have been passed down to the present, not only is Sima Xiang inferior to Sima Ling, but even the Erlang of the third room is not as good as the Erlang of the big room, and the third room is said to be a poor relative who came to the capital to cling to the two brothers.
The aristocratic families did not take these words to heart, but in the mouths of ordinary people, they became a lively topic.
They didn't know the relationship and contacts between relatives of the aristocratic family, so they thought that the family was like them, and they would quarrel over half a catty of barley and two liang of oil.
Fortunately, the Sima family responded in a timely manner, and the rumors about their family soon disappeared, but because of the influence of this rumor, one person could not avoid subconsciously comparing the big room of the Sima family with the third room.
However, in the eyes of the aristocratic family, such unwarranted rumors have no effect at all.
It's not uncommon for a big family like the Sima family to have some slanderous remarks occasionally. As long as their hearts are like a mirror, don't be affected by such unpopular words.
As everyone expected, the calligraphy and painting poems of the third master of the Sima family soon flowed out of the capital, which was praised by many people, and then a certain female celebrity came out to praise Sima Xiang for her good looks and talent.
"The third room of the Sima family can't hold back anymore." After closing the door, Gu Changling told his family about what happened to the Sima family, "Although the impression of ordinary people on the third room has been reversed, it is still in the eyes of the aristocratic family. In this case, they fell short."
Gu Zhiyu nodded and said, "My son also thinks it's a little inappropriate to live like this. It's not a big deal at first, but if they do it like this, it may cause a gap between the two rooms."
"The three families have the intention to cultivate a queen, and naturally they can't help but say that his daughter is not good," Gu Cunjing sneered, "I don't even think about whether the emperor would like to have his daughter."
"Save Jing!"
Yang's face sank, "As a child of an aristocratic family, is there such a private comment on other people's unexposed girls?"
Being disciplined by his mother like this, Gu Cunjing also felt that his words were a little frivolous, and after a few words of forgiveness to the Yang family, he was a little embarrassed and said, "I just think the third room of the Sima family is ugly."
"Ugly or not, it doesn't matter at all," Yang shi lowered his head and took a sip of tea. "As long as his girl becomes the queen, no one will mention these pasts again."
Gu Cunjing, who had been promoted to captain of the Dragon Guard, coughed twice. From his point of view, the emperor, who was frail but never had serious problems, didn't seem to be interested in women's sex at all.
Not to mention the outstanding appearance of the Sima family girl, even if she is stunning, she may not be valued by the emperor.
"The emperor's marriage is not something we worry about," Gu Changling stroked his beard and glanced at his daughter, who was sitting in the corner, drinking tea and eating snacks, "the empress dowager and the emperor have their own concerns."
Gu Rujiu nodded in agreement. Most men in Dafeng don't get married until they reach the age of 9. The little emperor is only 16 this year. Why are these people in such a hurry?
