In the wing room, Gu Yue was sobbing on the bed, very sad.
Gu Shan walked in, and first asked the maid who was serving Gu Yue, "Okay, why is Third Sister crying?"
The servant girl Putao said: "The third girl arrived in the wing room. She was fine at first, but then she burst into tears. The servant girl tried to persuade her for a long time, but she couldn't persuade her."
Gu Zhen said: "Could it be that you cry when you are drunk? I heard that some people go crazy when they are drunk, and some people are quiet when they are drunk. Like the third sister, it is possible that she will cry when she is drunk." Have a cry."
Gu Shan frowned, came to the bed and sat down.
"Third sister, don't cry, okay?"
It doesn't matter if you don't persuade, Gu Yue cried even harder after Gu Shan's persuasion.
Gu Shan stretched out her hand, hesitated for a moment, finally landed on Gu Yue's back, and patted lightly, "Third sister, if you feel uncomfortable in your heart, just say it. I will help you."
Gu Yue lay on the bed, and said in a low voice: "You help me? How can you help me? Can you make everything go back to the past? Can you make all the sisters in the Hou Mansion pay attention to me instead of Gu Jiu? "
Gu Shan frowned. It turned out that the third sister was crying because of jealousy.
Gu Zhen smiled knowingly, she knew that Gu Yue was stimulated. as expected.
Gu Shan persuaded: "Third sister, this is the Hou Mansion, if we have anything to say, let's go home and talk about it, okay?"
"Leave me alone, let me have a good cry."
Gu Shan worried, "Third Sister, if someone from the Hou Mansion sees you like this, I don't know what will come out. You still listen to me, don't cry. I'll ask the servant girl to bring a pot of hot water for you. wash up."
"Fourth sister, you're so annoying. You don't even allow me to cry, why do you always take care of me?"
Gu Yue had a bad temper and got angry at Gu Shan.
Gu Shan took a deep breath to suppress the anger in her heart. Then he said: "It was my mother who asked me to come and watch you. My mother is worried about you."
Gu Yue's crying stopped suddenly.
She raised her head, her eyes dimmed with tears, and looked at Gu Shan, "Did your mother really ask you to come here?"
Gu Shan nodded, "Mother is talking to the old lady, and she can't get away for a while. She learned that you were crying in the wing room, so she ordered me to watch you."
Gu Yue bit her lip, her mind was complicated.
A handkerchief was handed to him.
Gu Shan said: "Third sister, wipe away your tears. Putao, go get a pot of hot water."
The maid Putao took the order and went out to fetch hot water.
Gu Jiu grabbed the handkerchief and wiped away her tears heavily.
I dressed up quietly today, but my makeup was all gone.
Gu Yue was bitter and asked, "Fourth sister, am I ugly now?"
Gu Shan shook her head, "No. After washing your face, ask someone to reapply your makeup."
Gu Yue gritted her teeth, "I knew, I must be ugly now."
After speaking, Gu Yue sat up from the bed, as if she hadn't noticed Gu Zhen's existence until now.
"Why is big sister here?"
Gu Zhen said: "Don't worry about the third sister, I came here to take a look."
Gu Yue snorted, "Big sister has a heart."
It's obviously a word of thanks, but when it comes out of Gu Yue's mouth, it always gives people a feeling that it's wrong to say it, and it's not easy to mess with it.
Gu Zhen smiled sheepishly, "As long as the third sister is fine."
The maid Putao brought hot water.
Gu Yue washed up again and put on makeup.
She said to Gu Shan: "Third sister, I'm fine. You have someone to inform mother, don't let mother worry about me all the time."
Gu Shan saw that Gu Yue had calmed down, so she went out without worry and asked someone to inform her mother.
Gu Zhen was by Gu Yue's side.
Gu Yue stared at Gu Zhen through the mirror, "Big sister, have you done everything I asked you to do?"
Gu Zhen nodded, "Third sister, don't worry, everything is done. Soon the news will spread throughout the Hou family that Gu Jiu is a sick child."
Gu Yue suddenly laughed, with joy in the corners of her brows and eyes.
"When the whole capital knows that the second sister is a sick child, I want to see how she still gets married."
Gu Zhen said: "Third sister, don't worry, no matter how capable the second sister is, she can't compare to the third sister."
Gu Yue snorted coldly, "Which eye of yours sees that Gu Jiu is more capable than me? Everyone in the Hou family pays attention to her, isn't it because she is born with the original match. Is it amazing to be born with the original match? I want to see it, wait." After everyone knows that Gu Jiu is a sick child, they won't value her so much."
Things are already clear.
Seeing that Gu Jiu was valued more than her in the Hou's residence, Gu Yue felt jealous.
So she became malicious and asked Gu Zhen to spread bad things about Gu Jiu and tarnish Gu Jiu's reputation. Gu Jiu couldn't talk about a good marriage.
In order to please Gu Yue and Xie Shi, Gu Zhen took the initiative to rush forward and act as the knife in Gu Yue's hand.
Gu Zhen hurriedly said: "Second younger sister is naturally not as capable as third younger sister. Second younger sister will only be looked up to by others because she is born with the original spouse."
Gu Yue nodded again and again, "The elder sister is right. But even if the second elder sister is looked at high, I will pull her down from the height."
Among so many sisters, the central point can only be her forever.
She would never allow Gu Jiu to take away the attention that originally belonged to her, let alone allow Gu Jiu to marry better than her.
As long as he thinks that the old lady of Hou's mansion pays so much attention to Gu Jiu, but treats her so normal, Gu Yue will be driven mad by jealousy.
Gu Jiu, who has always been inferior to her, has no right to ride on her head, even attracting more attention than her.
Gu Yue cursed inwardly, everyone in the capital is blind.
Or the Northwest is better.
When she was in Northwest, no matter when and where, she was the one who attracted attention.
Gu Shan came in from the outside and asked casually, "What are you talking about?"
Gu Zhen hastily denied, "It's nothing to talk about. I'm trying to relieve the third sister."
Gu Shan said: "Third sister, you really should think about it a bit. This is the Hou's mansion, not your own home. If your words and deeds are inappropriate, it will attract criticism."
Gu Yue complained softly, "The Hou Mansion doesn't value us, so why should I be so careful."
"You can't say that. Regardless of whether you are valued or not, you should be cautious in your words and deeds. Third sister, don't forget the truth that disaster comes from your mouth. If your words and deeds are inappropriate, what will the Hou family think of you?"
Gu Shan spoke earnestly.
Gu Yue didn't listen, "It's okay, it's okay. The truth is always the same, and your ears are almost callused. Are you annoying?"
Gu Shan was embarrassed and felt wronged.
She said: "I kindly thought of the third sister, but the third sister didn't appreciate it."
Gu Yue secretly disliked her, but in a blink of an eye she put on an affectionate look, and took Gu Shan's hand, "Fourth sister, don't argue with me. You know that I don't mean it, so don't take what you say to heart." .”
Gu Shan broke away from Gu Yue's hand, "I see. Third sister, do you continue to rest here, or go to the flower hall with me? Everyone will have fun in the flower hall now."
Gu Yue thought for a while, "I'd better go to the flower hall with you. I'm already sober, so I can't stay in the wing room all the time. This opportunity is rare, so I have to get closer to the sisters in the Hou Mansion."
Gu Shan nodded.
After Gu Yue redressed and changed into pink clothes, the three of them returned to the flower hall together.
In the flower hall, everyone is eating snacks, drinking tea and chatting.
In the distance, bursts of laughter could be heard.
Gu Yue led the way and walked into the flower hall, "Sisters, what are you laughing at? I heard it from afar."
"Sister Yue is here, are you feeling better?"
Gu Mei stepped forward to greet her.
Gu Yue smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Sister Mei, for your concern. I'm much better. Seeing you all so happy makes me happy too."
"Sister Yue, sit down quickly. Sister Zhen, Sister Shan, sit down too. Just now we were talking about the joke that the second sister made last month."
The second younger sister that Gu Mei refers to refers to Gu Qi, the daughter of the second wife of the Hou Mansion.
Last month, Gu Qi went out as a guest. Because of the wrong person, it was a joke.
Everyone laughs out loud every time they mention it.
Gu Qi is a little bit face blind, but it's okay to recognize people she knows well.
It is difficult for Gu Qi to remember those people who have only met once or twice.
Misidentified, made a joke, everyone was laughing at her.
Gu Qi smiled and said, "Stop talking about me. Sister Xiaojiu, tell us about the Northwest. I have never been to the Northwest. Is that place fun?"
Gu Yue coughed lightly, and said first: "Sister Qi, if you want to know about Northwest, it's not suitable to ask Second Sister. Second Sister is sick all year round and rarely goes out. She must not know what Northwest looks like. I'm different. I often Going out with my mother, the scenery of the Northwest is my treasure."
In the flower hall, the air was suddenly quiet, and the smell of falling needles could be heard.
Everyone looked at each other, what's going on
Gu Jiu looked at Gu Yue with a half-smile, "Third sister is in good health, congratulations. Sisters, sisters, don't be surprised. What the third sister said is indeed true. The northwest is bitterly cold. I am not used to the weather and conditions over there." Diet, and therefore regular medication.
My wife felt sorry for me and tried not to let me go out. In order not to eat sand in the wind, the body will get sick again.
For example, last year, Mrs. Yin of the Hezhong Prefecture hosted a banquet. I went, but fell into the water and fell ill for more than half a year.
My body is weak and I can't bear hardships, so I often need to take medicine to recuperate.
People outside didn't know the inside story, so they rumored that I was a sick child who had been soaked in medicine jars since childhood. He also said that my life span is limited and I cannot live for a few years.
But I still grew up safely, thanks to my father and wife.
Of course, what those people said was not entirely wrong. I often take some soups and medicines to nourish my body, and they say that I am a sick child, and I admit it. "
Gu Yue was shocked, why did Gu Jiu just say that
Gu Yue and Gu Zhen exchanged a look, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.
Whether Gu Jiu is stupid or really doesn't care. Is she really not afraid to spread the reputation of being sick
Gu Yue couldn't understand Gu Jiu, and couldn't understand what she was thinking.
call!
The girls of the Hou Mansion let out a sigh of relief.
I was really nervous just now, I was afraid that Gu Jiu and Gu Yue would quarrel.
Gu Qin's eyeballs rolled cunningly. Speaking of which, Gu Zhen wasn't talking nonsense.
However, it is still contemptuous for Gu Zhen to say such things casually.
Gu Mei took Gu Jiu's hand, "Sister Xiao Jiu is suffering."
Gu Jiu smiled softly, "Thank you, Sister Mei, for your concern. Fortunately, my health is getting better day by day. This time I went back to Beijing, and I was exhausted all the way, and I didn't get sick."
Gu Mei looked rejoicing, "Thank God, my sister's health has finally recovered."
Gu Jiu looked at Gu Yue again, "My third younger sister is straight-tempered and outspoken. She doesn't care about the occasion when she has something to say. Don't mind."
Gu Yue was furious.
But this topic was brought up by her. She will also have hardships to say.
Gu Mei secretly smiled, and then said to Gu Jiu: "We don't mind. Sister Yue is outspoken, and it's pretty good."
Gu Jiu laughed, "Sometimes my third sister is fine, but sometimes it's worrying.
When I came here, I also heard my wife repeatedly telling my third sister not to talk nonsense when I arrived at the Hou Mansion, and not to say anything outside.
As a result, the third sister drank a few glasses of wine and forgot all about her wife's orders.
Don't get me wrong, in fact, my third sister has no bad intentions. She talked about my poor health when she met everyone, and it was all for my consideration.
She was just worried that others would not know that I was not in good health, and my words and actions were not serious, which would make my condition worse. That's why I'm here to remind everyone.
Third sister, I am very grateful for your kindness.
But you don't have to bother to explain it to me in the future, my health is much better now, and my wife knows this best.
The woman in charge of the medicinal material warehouse must have reported it to his wife. Recently, the maids around me seldom go to the warehouse to get medicinal materials. "
Gu Yue was tongue-tied, and she said why Gu Jiu was so calm, and directly admitted that he was a sick child.
It turned out to be waiting for her here.
The girls in the Hou Mansion were all snickering.
Gu Yue's move is a typical case of stealing chickens and losing nothing, but lifting a rock only to smash his own foot.
Sister Gu Jiu (sister) is really powerful, with a few words, she killed Gu Yue without leaving a piece of her, which is really satisfying.
Gu Zhen hid behind others, feeling guilty and embarrassed.
Gu Shan secretly sighed, the third sister did not accept the lesson again and again.
I want to embarrass my second sister, but I don't even look at it. Is she the second sister's opponent
The mere three words of sick young man, I just want to defeat the second sister, the idea is too beautiful.
When I was in the northwest, my second sister was never afraid.
Now back in the capital, there is the eldest aunt, the old lady of the Hou Mansion, and the second sister has no reason to be afraid.
Gu Lin pursed her lips and smiled secretly, gloating secretly.
It's so refreshing to see Gu Yue deflated.
shame, shame
Gu Yue was annoyed, Gu Jiuming was speaking for her on the surface, but inside and outside the words, he was calling her an idiot without knowing it.
She stared at Gu Jiu, lowered her voice, and said angrily, "You're deceiving people too much."
"Well, you're right."
Gu Jiu nodded slightly, with a calm face.
Gu Yue vomited blood.
Gu Jiu actually admitted it, admitted that he had deceived others too much. But why didn't she feel the slightest bit of joy, instead, her anger grew even higher.
Gu Shan had no choice but to stand up and pull Gu Yue's sleeve, "Third sister, you are not in good health yet, drink some tea."
When Gu Yue was reminded, she came back to her senses in an instant.
She looked at everyone present, feeling very embarrassed, but she had to hold on and not back down.
So she restrained her expression and made a look of aggrieved, "I didn't know that your second sister is in good health. My sister didn't understand the condition of the second sister in time. You should be damned."
Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows and smiled, Gu Yue's acting skills are also very good.
She said how could Xie's carefully raised daughter be a simple idiot.
After all, Gu Yue is used to a smooth life, and has forgotten that she needs to use her brain before speaking and doing things. Of course, it is also possible that the cancer is lazy and unwilling to use your brain.
Gu Jiu said to Gu Yue: "I didn't blame the third sister. The third sister has endless things to do all day long, food, drink, clothes, wear, everything needs to be worried about. She didn't pay attention to my situation, I understand."
Gu Shan was not happy anymore.
Gu Jiu's words clearly meant that Gu Yue was an idiot, who only cared about trivial things all day long, but never cared about serious things.
Gu Shan did not forget the task assigned by Mrs. Xie, she had to help Gu Yue.
Gu Shan said aloud: "Thank you, Second Sister, for being considerate of Third Sister. Now, Third Sister has to learn how to be a housekeeper. Every day, she doesn't have to be busy with food, drink, clothes, and clothes. These trivial things, It takes up a lot of the third sister's time. The third sister is very tired every day, and I feel very distressed when I see it."
Gu Jiu looked at Gu Shan with a half-smile, she had to give Gu Shan a thumbs-up.
In terms of wit and flexibility, Gu Shan is the number one. Let alone Gu Yue's 20 blocks.
It's a pity that Gu Shan overlooked that there is an honest man here.
Gu Lin suddenly said: "I just returned to the capital, and my wife doesn't have a housekeeper, so how can my third sister be a housekeeper? And when I was in the northwest, I didn't see the third sister's housekeeper. Could it be that the three sisters are housekeepers at night?"
puff!
Someone couldn't help but laughed out loud.
Gu Shan was embarrassed and ashamed.
Gu Yue was more embarrassed and ashamed than her.
Gu Yue vented all her anger on Gu Shan, "Whoever told you to talk nonsense will cause me to be laughed at."
Gu Shan was wronged, she just wanted to save Gu Yue from the siege.
Who would have thought that Gu Lin was actually an honest person.
