Gu Jiu came to Furongyuan and met Gu Shan.
What was even more surprising was that the eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, and the eldest and younger wife, Mrs. Zhang, also arrived.
Is this the rhythm of Qiqi going out to watch the excitement
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, was talking with Mrs. Xie, asking about Mrs. Xie's physical condition.
Xie's illness this time is mainly heart disease.
The doctor said, let Mrs. Xie think about it a little bit.
People who are old, don't think about it all day long. Beware of stagnation in the heart and aggravate the condition.
Mrs. Xie didn't know Master Gu brought a woman back, and everyone kept it from her.
She said to Mrs. Zhang: "Thank you sister-in-law for visiting me. I feel much better. Shan'er, come here."
Gu Shan came to the bedside, "What's your order?"
Xie sat on the bed, "Are you feeling better?"
Gu Shan nodded, "It's much better."
Xie breathed a sigh of relief, she took Gu Shan's hand and asked, "Do you hate me?"
Gu Shan lowered her head and frowned slightly. She shook her head and said, "Mother, don't think too much, my daughter doesn't hate anyone."
Gu Shan's answer was the same as before.
Mrs. Zhang saw that Gu Shan was holding on, so she helped Gu Shan, "Sister and brother, you are not in good health, so talk less. Let the children talk by themselves, they are uncomfortable around us."
Mrs. Xie was kind and let go of Gu Shan's hand.
Gu Shan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurried out of the bedroom.
"Second sister, why are you here?"
Gu Jiu said, "Heard the news, come and have a look."
Gu Shan smiled wryly, "It's going to be a fuss again in a while."
There was movement outside the courtyard door.
The mother-in-law shouted, "Master is here."
Immediately afterwards, Master Gu walked into the Furong Courtyard step by step.
Behind him, besides the servant, there was another woman.
The woman is not tall, but is slender and graceful.
The woman kept her head down all the time, unable to see her face clearly, only a part of her neck was visible.
Gu Jiu suddenly understood what a swan neck is.
The woman's neck is slender and long, and her skin is white, so she certainly looks good after all.
Gu Jiu led Gu Shan and went up to greet Mr. Gu.
Master Gu was very surprised, how could the two daughters be here.
Gu Jiu said: "Auntie and sister-in-law are visiting the wife inside, is father going in now?"
Master Gu was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a moment, and brought the newcomer in.
And said to Gu Jiu and the two: "It's none of your business here, step back first."
But Gu Shan suddenly asked: "Is this the new aunt? Why don't you raise your head, is it possible to be shameful?"
The woman who followed Master Gu trembled all over, as if she was frightened.
She raised her head slowly, her eyes were filled with tears, and she looked very pitiful.
What a weak, lovable little flower.
This woman's temperament is very similar to that of Aunt Bai in the past. The appearance is even more outstanding.
It is said that the women that men like are always similar.
For example, Muzi Richen of the later generations, such as the son of the richest man in the past.
Their present, and countless predecessors, are always similar here or there. Some even just look at the photos and can't tell who is who.
Gu Jiu understood, it turned out that Master Gu always liked the innocent and pitiful girl who looked harmless and needed protection, commonly known as the white lotus.
Master Gu looked back at Gu Shan, very dissatisfied.
Thinking that Gu Shan was injured before and almost died in the flames, Master Gu suppressed his anger. Just with a straight face, he said: "Don't ask children about adults' matters. Go back and lie down, and take care of your body as soon as possible."
"Thank you father for your concern, my daughter is in good health."
Master Gu frowned, "Even if you are in good health, you shouldn't go out under such a strong sun. That's all right, go back to your room quickly."
After finishing speaking, Master Gu led the new couple into the Furong Courtyard.
Gu Shan followed in.
Gu Jiu also followed in.
Seeing Master Gu came to visit her, Mrs. Xie immediately laughed.
As a result, halfway through the smile, the smile froze on his face.
Xie covered her heart with one hand, and kept pointing at the woman behind Master Gu, "Who is she?"
Master Gu said: "She is Mrs. Tan. Mrs. Tan, come and see your wife."
Mrs. Tan stepped forward, "My concubine greets my wife."
After speaking, he knelt on the ground, offered a cup of tea, and waited for Mrs. Xie to drink tea.
Xie pointed at Tan, "Where are you from? What did you do in the past?"
Mrs. Tan was a little embarrassed, as if she had been greatly wronged, and said pitifully: "My concubine is from the outskirts of the capital, and she earns her living by singing."
Mrs. Xie sneered, "A singer is also worthy of entering the Gu family's door. The master is becoming less and less particular now, and brings all the fragrant and smelly ones to the house, so he is not afraid of staining the children's eyes."
"What nonsense are you talking about. Mrs. Tan is very good, and you didn't think of such a mess." Master Gu said impatiently.
Mrs. Xie pointed at Mr. Gu, "Master, this concubine is still lying on the bed, and her body is heavy, so you can't wait to take this woman back to the house. Are you hoping that this concubine will be pissed off to make room for the newcomer?"
"It's nonsense. Since you don't want to see Mrs. Tan, drink her tea quickly and I'll take her away."
Xie was so angry that his heart ached.
"Sister-in-law, if you judge me, is it me talking nonsense, or my master is not particular about things?"
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, sighed, "Second brother, you are too anxious. The younger brother and sister are still sick, and you bring the newcomer in, so you won't be afraid that the younger brother and sister will be angry."
Master Gu said confidently: "As the head wife, she should be magnanimous."
Mrs. Zhang frowned.
Gu Shan suddenly stood up, "Even if it is reasonable, father shouldn't force mother to accept newcomers at this time. Doesn't father know that this will make mother's condition worse?"
Master Gu frowned, and turned to stare at Gu Shan, "I told you to go back to your room, why are you still here?"
Gu Shan said: "My daughter fights for her mother."
"Presumptuous!" Mr. Gu scolded angrily.
Gu Shan suddenly showed a panicked expression, her eyes were like innocent deer's, with tears in her eyes.
When Master Gu saw this, he immediately lost his temper and vented his anger.
Mr. Gu said dissatisfiedly to Mrs. Xie: "He has already entered the door, Mrs. Tan is my concubine."
Xie stretched out his hand, and pointed towards the teacup.
Does Mrs. Xie really want to drink this cup of Auntie's tea
Xie's hand touched the teacup.
Mrs. Tan said softly: "Please drink tea with your wife."
Xie suddenly laughed.
Snapped!
The teacup was overturned, and all the tea splashed on Tan's newly changed dress.
Not only that, Xie also took the opportunity to slap Tan. Immediately, Master Gu felt distressed.
Master Gu roared at Xie Shi, "Xie Shi, don't go too far."
Xie's eyes widened, "Get out, take your little concubine out."
"You, you are simply unreasonable. Don't forget, who has the final say in this family."
Mrs. Xie sneered, "Master, don't forget, I will be a filial piety for the old lady, and I also gave birth to two sons and two daughters for you, so you don't want to divorce me."
Mr. Gu pointed at Mrs. Xie and yelled, "Slut! I don't have the same knowledge as you."
After speaking, he pulled the frightened Tan Shi away from the Furong Courtyard.
"Brother and sister, you want to open it up."
puff!
As soon as the eldest wife Zhang spoke to persuade Xie, Xie suddenly vomited blood.
The bright red blood sprayed on the quilt, the bed frame, and the footstool, smudged little by little, like blossoming red plums.
The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhang, was startled, "Siblings, are you okay? Don't scare me. Hurry up and call the doctor."
"Ma'am, ma'am..."
All the maids in the Furong Court turned pale with fright.
Mrs. Xie was in a daze, and there was a sound of thunder in her ears, and all kinds of voices rushed into her mind, causing the world to turn upside down.
She felt that her body was empty, and she seemed to be a few pounds lighter.
Gu Jiu stepped forward, calmly held Xie's hand to feel his pulse.
Extremely angry, the heart is full of fire, but the body is very weak.
Xie was so angry that he vomited blood.
In her situation, she had to rely on her own thinking and recuperate slowly.
In the final analysis, her illness, as the doctor said before, is mainly heart disease.
Gu Shan bit her lip and didn't cry.
Gu Jiu saw her open her mouth, "It's all Gu Yue's fault, it's all Gu Yue's fault. Gu Yue deserves to die."
"Fourth sister, are you okay?"
Gu Shan came back to her senses, wiped the corners of her eyes, "Thank you, Second Sister, for your concern, I'm fine."
The doctor was invited to diagnose the pulse, prescribe prescriptions, decoct medicine and feed the medicine, tossing for a long time.
Xie drank the medicine and fell into a drowsy sleep.
Master Gu settled down Mrs. Tan himself, next door to Aunt Bai, the courtyard has the same pattern and size.
You know, Aunt Bai was the most favored aunt in the mansion back then, and her yard was also the largest among all the aunts.
Unexpectedly, the moment Tan entered the door, he would be treated like a concubine.
I don't know how many people secretly gritted their silver teeth.
It is typical for Mr. Gu to have newcomers and forget the old ones, so he stayed at Mrs. Tan's place that night.
Knowing that Xie vomited blood, he also said lightly: "Have you invited a doctor? Since you have invited a doctor, please don't bother me."
The ruthlessness is evident.
Gu Jiu shook her head secretly, Master Gu is acting like this, is he really not afraid of a fire in the backyard
Mrs. Xie is currently ill and her combat effectiveness is weak, so she can't help Mrs. Tan for the time being.
Just wait and see, after Mrs. Xie recovers, the backyard will definitely be lively for a while.
The weather is getting hotter.
Gu Jiu Kuxia, unless necessary, never go out.
It has been half a month since Mrs. Tan entered the house, Mr. Gu lives in her room every day. Tan's treatment also increased accordingly.
All kinds of precious objects were sent into Tan's room like flowing water.
Aunt Bai, who lives in the Acacia House next door, listens to the talking and laughing next door every day, her heart is as cold as water.
Sure enough, the master has forgotten her.
Xie's body gradually improved, but she never saw any movement.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was July, the day of Gu Zhen's big wedding.
According to the guest list drawn up by Mrs. Xie at the beginning, the Gu Mansion held ten tables, and all the guests who came were close relatives and friends.
Gu Zhen was wearing a bright red wedding dress and exquisite bridal makeup, she was very beautiful.
Her face was flushed, she looked very excited, very excited.
She was finally getting married, and finally waited until this day.
She took Gu Jiu's hand, "Second Sister, I'm so nervous, what should I do?"
"Big sister, don't be nervous, take a deep breath first. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Xi Niang, or ask the dowry wife."
Gu Zhen took a deep breath, "The method taught by the second sister really works. I, I haven't said goodbye to my aunt yet."
Gu Jiu immediately told Qing Mei, "Go and invite Aunt Hu."
There is still some time before Jishi.
Qingmei hastily went to invite Aunt Hu.
Aunt Hu walked into the bedroom and saw that Gu Zhen was wearing a bright red wedding dress, which was embroidered with golden thread decorations, which looked extraordinarily beautiful.
When Aunt Hu got excited, tears fell.
"Good boy, my aunt finally saw you getting married wearing a red wedding dress. The most regrettable thing in my life is that I didn't wear a red wedding dress. You are better than me."
"Auntie, don't cry. How about I take off the wedding dress and Auntie can wear it again."
"Don't talk nonsense. On the big day, how can you take off your wedding dress when you put on your upper body. When you arrive at Xu's house, you must..."
Aunt Hu began to instruct Gu Zhen carefully.
Gu Jiu knew what was going on, and exited the bedroom.
Standing under the eaves, she looked at the maidservants in the yard, all of them were beaming.
Gu Zhen married four servant girls, one nanny, and two companions.
Yesterday was the day to add makeup, Gu Jiu secretly added two hundred taels to Gu Zhen, and told Gu Zhen not to say anything.
Gu Zhen was very moved, and never asked where Gu Jiu got the money from.
After more than half a year of experience, Gu Zhen has become more and more calm, which can be regarded as a result of experience.
The betrothed has arrived.
Xi Niang came to urge.
Gu Zhen bid farewell to Aunt Hu.
She cried a lot, and her makeup was a little changed.
Xi Niang hurriedly touched up her makeup, and went to the hall to bid farewell to her relatives and parents with Gu Zhen on her back.
Mrs. Xie had been silent for many days, and finally showed up today, accepting Gu Zhen's farewell with Master Gu.
She also told Gu Zhen a few words, telling Gu Zhen to return to the house early when she returned home on the 3rd. She will order the kitchen to prepare a table of wine and food waiting for her and Xu Sanlang.
Gu Zhen was overwhelmed with flattery, she never expected Xie to be so polite to her.
She thanked her, bid farewell to her relatives, and went out with Gu Ting on her back.
"Big sister, I'm here to marry you off."
Gu Ting sent Gu Zhen into the sedan chair, and then went to Xu's house with the wedding procession to support Gu Zhen.
Ten tables of banquets are not considered lively. The advantage is that the dishes are rich, and everyone eats to their heart's content.
Everyone who was supposed to come has come, and even the Haixibo Mansion has sent people to give presents.
Only Gu Yue was not seen, but the people in Haixibo Mansion didn't ask about it.
After the banquet was over, Gu Shan went back to her room to rest, and asked the maid in a low voice, "Did you tell Haixibo Mansion everything?"
The servant girl nodded, "Don't worry, girl, the servant girl has already told Haixibo Mansion the whole story."
Gu Shan breathed a sigh of relief, only to realize that her back was covered in stinky sweat, which wet her underwear.
She changed into dry clothes, and the next thing was to wait quietly for Hai Xibo's house to come and call off the engagement.
However, after Gu Shan waited for three days, Gu Zhen took Xu Sanlang back home, but there was no news from Haixibo Mansion.
Seeing Gu Zhen's radiant appearance, Gu Shan was absent-minded.
Could it be that the messenger had an accident? Didn't the matter reach Mrs. Haisib's ears
It shouldn't be!
The person who came to give the gift was Mrs. Haisib's confidant, she didn't have any reason to know such a big thing, and there was no movement at all.
Do we have to wait a few more days
Gu Yue killed people and set fire to her, and she could still marry into the Haixibo Mansion, she was really not reconciled.
She must ruin the marriage.
"Fourth sister, what's the matter with you? You don't look well?"
Gu Zhen lost the youthfulness of a big girl and added the shyness of a little woman, she really looked radiant.
It seems that she gets along very well with Xu Sanlang. The Xu family didn't make things difficult for her either.
Today is the day she returns home, and she is in a good mood.
Seeing that Gu Shan was always absent-minded, she asked a few more questions.
Gu Shan came back to her senses and rubbed the center of her brows, "Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well last night, and I'm not feeling well today."
"Fourth sister, you must take care of yourself."
Gu Shan nodded.
After the banquet, Gu Zhen and Xu Sanlang bid farewell and left.
As soon as they left, the servants came to report that Mrs. Tan was ill.
Xie said indifferently: "If you are sick, ask the housekeeper to ask for a doctor. My wife is not a doctor, but I can't cure the disease."
The servants hurriedly went to the outer courtyard to find the butler.
Chunhe whispered to Mrs. Xie, "Mrs. Tan is finally sick."
Xie smiled, "There is no reason why a person will not get sick if he eats whole grains."
A mere concubine, as soon as she entered the door, she wanted to ride on her head, delusional.
She wanted to see if Mrs. Gu would spoil that woman when Tan's face was gone.
Mr. Gu was drunk at noon, and he was taking a nap, no one disturbed him.
The butler made the decision and invited a doctor to visit Tan Shi for diagnosis and treatment.
Tan had rashes all over her body, especially on her face. The dense rashes formed a large area, covering her cheeks, which looked very scary.
Like a rash freak.
Seeing this, the doctor was taken aback.
"What kind of hair did Auntie eat to make it so serious?"
Tan's whole body was uncomfortable because of the rash and itching. She has been reluctant to pick, for fear of leaving scars.
It's just too much to bear.
Tan cried and said, "Doctor, help me quickly. I don't want to lose my appearance."
"Auntie, don't cry in a hurry, the more you cry, the more serious the situation will be."
The doctor checked the pulse. In Tan's case, he either ate food to which he was allergic, or came into contact with something to which he was allergic.
It's an allergy anyway.
Allergies can be big or small.
Tan's allergy is obviously serious.
The doctor increased the dosage and ordered the servant girl to take the medicine according to the prescription and decoct it.
"Auntie, remember, don't grab it with your hands. The more you grab it, the worse it will be. After drinking the medicine and rubbing your body, the situation will ease."
"Thank you, doctor!"
