The news of the collapse of the rope bridge quickly spread among the public, and even the old lady and the old sacrificial wine knew about it.
However, their children were fine, and the two didn't delve too much into it.
Next month will be Spring Festival. Although Guozijian has not started school, Gu Jiao will urge her husband to study every day.
Xiao Liulang, who was held in the study... I can't tell you the pain!
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Gu Jiao went to the Hou Mansion.
She didn't tell Yao Shi about the thrilling things in the family. Fang Momo came to Bishui Hutong every three or five times, but she knew a little bit. Gu Jiao told her not to talk about it.
Mommy Fang is now listening more and more to Gu Jiao, and she really didn't say a word.
Yao's condition is good.
Gu Jiao thought that if this continued, it wouldn't take long before she could stop the depressant.
"The flowers in the plum garden are blooming, let's go for a walk in the plum garden," Yao said to her daughter.
Gu Jiao hummed: "Okay."
After a pause, I didn't know what to think, and said to Fang Fang, "Call Gu Jinyu."
"Ah?" Fang Momo was taken aback.
Isn't the eldest lady always at odds with the second lady? Why call her suddenly
Yao shi also glanced at her daughter in surprise, and then said to Fang Momo, "Go ahead."
"Yes." Fang Momo went to Gu Jinyu's yard.
I heard that it was Yao Shi and Gu Jiao who called her to visit the plum garden, but she didn't say anything, just changed her clothes and went.
Recently, when the people broke the bridge, the harem was more peaceful than in previous years. Concubine Shu would call her into the palace to accompany her at this time every year, but not this year.
She came to the plum garden.
Seeing Yao Shi and Gu Jiao sitting together intimately, her heart was sour, but she walked over with a smile on her face: "Mother, sister!"
Yao shi's eyes fell on her thin jacket, and she said angrily, "Why did you come out after wearing so little? You are not afraid of freezing? How do your maids serve?"
Gu Jinyu smiled innocently and harmlessly: "I'm too anxious to see my mother and sister. Once I'm happy, I forget about it."
Yao Shi hurriedly asked her servants to bring her a cloak and put it on.
Gu Jinyu looked at Gu Jiao, and said gently and amiably, "Does my elder sister like plum blossoms?"
"Well." Gu Jiao responded perfunctorily.
Gu Jinyu said again, "Then I'll pick a few plants and put them in a vase later to send to my sister."
"No need." I don't really like it.
Yao Shi stopped walking after walking for a while.
Seeing that the sisters were in good spirits, she said to them, "I'll go to sit in the pavilion for a while, you reward you, don't worry about me."
Gu Jinyu thought that Gu Jiao would refuse, after all, Gu Jiao never liked being with her.
But Gu Jiao didn't.
Gu Jiao walked forward silently.
Gu Jinyu was a little confused.
Did this sister take the wrong medicine today
She followed suspiciously.
Gu Jiao walked and walked out of the plum garden.
"Where do you want to go?" Gu Jinyu asked with a smile.
"Just walk around." Gu Jiao said.
Speaking of this, Gu Jinyu's sense of superiority arises spontaneously: "The mansion of the Marquis of Ding'an is very large. It is said that it used to be the residence of a prince, and was later given to his grandfather by the late emperor. Grandfather, his old man likes the fish pond in front of him the most, and my sister wants to go there. Have a look?"
"Um."
Gu Jiao cooperated unexpectedly.
Gu Jinyu was surprised again.
She took Gu Jiao to the pavilion beside the fish pond, where fish food was prepared all year round, and the master of the house could feed the small fish here, but now that the lake is frozen, it is not easy to feed.
Gu Jinyu: "If elder sister likes Hou Mansion, you can consider moving back there. I can give Qingya Garden to elder sister..."
"What's over there?" Gu Jiao suddenly pointed at the back mountain and asked.
Gu Jinyu's words were interrupted and she gave a displeased look, but she still answered patiently: "It's Houshan, the three brothers often go there."
Gu Jiao: "Who went today?" There was movement in the back mountain, but Gu Jinyu's ears couldn't hear it.
"It seems to be the second brother." Gu Jinyu remembered that when he came from his yard just now, he saw the second brother heading towards the back mountain.
"Madam is calling you." Gu Jiao said.
"Ah?" Gu Jinyu looked back, "Why didn't I hear it?"
Gu Jiao didn't change her face: "I think I heard it."
Gu Jinyu: "Then, is my sister going back?"
Gu Jiao: "I don't want to."
Gu Jinyu: "..."
Talking to this person can always be maddened, even if the other person is not scolding him.
Gu Jinyu squeezed her fingers and said, "The elder sister is waiting for me here, I'll come when I go."
After Gu Jinyu left, Gu Jiao turned to the back mountain.
Gu Chengfeng was picking fruit in the back mountain. Gu Chenglin didn't know what the wind was suddenly blowing, so he had to eat the wild fruits in the back mountain.
This kind of fruit is red, slightly smaller than hawthorn, and it can grow long even in heavy snow. The taste is actually not good, but Gu Chenglin's child's temperament likes to eat this kind of weird stuff.
Gu Chengfeng picked it up and suddenly felt a murderous aura rushing towards him.
He dodged a blow in a flash, pointed his toes, and turned around quickly.
When he saw that it was Gu Jiao, his expression instantly froze.
Gu Jiao raised her hand and folded a piece of ice that was hanging on a branch, her arm was so long, she used the ice as a blade and slashed towards Gu Chengfeng coldly.
Gu Chengfeng was wary of whether she had lured anyone else over, and almost failed to escape.
Gu Jiao showed no mercy.
So if it wasn't for his skill, he would have been pierced through his throat by this ice.
"What are you going to do?" Gu Chengfeng asked through gritted teeth.
Gu Jiao weighed the ice in her hand and slammed it towards the other party.
Gu Chengfeng finally sacrificed his hidden weapon.
One hidden weapon shattered Bingling, and the other two flew towards Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao's waist bent backwards in an incredible arc, the hidden weapon flew past her flat waist and belly, and nailed it to the plane tree behind her with a bang!
Can this be avoided too
Gu Chengfeng squinted his eyes: "The other day you... secretly unveiled my mask?"
"You're wrong." Gu Jiao straightened up and looked at him, "It's not secretly, it's upright."
Gu Chengfeng: "..."
There were footsteps over there.
Gu Chengfeng thought of the hidden weapon left on the tree, and hurriedly flew to get it back, but was kicked away by Gu Jiao!
Gu Chengfeng knelt down on one knee and slid back ten or more steps in the snow, but was not injured.
Gu Jiao was very satisfied: "Sure enough, I took the beating."
Gu Chengfeng: "...!!"
Footsteps approached.
Gu Chengfeng had no intention of fighting, and walked away.
However, Gu Jiao stepped up and pulled him down from the sky!
Gu Chengfeng had too many scruples and was unable to use his fists, so he was dragged into the small wooden house by Gu Jiao.
It was in this room that Yao Shi poisoned Concubine Ling.
The person here is Gu Changqing.
He only came to find out after hearing the movement of the back mountain.
As a result no one.
But there are footprints on the snow, and there are traces of the fight.
He didn't find the hidden weapon on the plane tree for the time being.
Gu Chengfeng looked at him nervously, cold sweat on his forehead.
"Give you a chance." Gu Jiao hugged her arms. "Answer my question. Otherwise, I can rescue you and bury you again."
Gu Chengfeng: "Oh, if you have this ability, you didn't do it sooner?"
Gu Jiao: "I dare to do it, do you dare?"
Gu Chengfeng choked.
He glanced at Gu Changqing who was scouting in the snow: "What do you want to know?"
Gu Jiao asked, "There is a man named Ah Heng in the Marquis of Xuanping. He is not a servant. Who is he?"
Gu Chengfeng looked at her vigilantly: "Who the hell are you? Why did you inquire about Xuanping Hou's mansion?"
Gu Jiao said lightly, "Just answer it."
Gu Changqing came under the plane tree, and only needed to turn around to find the hidden weapon on the tree.
Gu Chengfeng clenched his fists and said coldly, "The only one with the word Heng in his name is the deceased young marquis of Zhaodu, his name is Xiao Heng."
Gu Jiao: "Which one?"
Gu Chengfeng: "Mei Yuheng."
"Hmm." Gu Jiao pondered for a while, and was very satisfied with the word "Heng".
She tilted her little head.
It looks a little cute.
Gu Chengfeng turned his face away, crazy, this girl is a killer at all, how cute is she
Gu Jiao reached out to him again.
"What?" Gu Chengfeng asked.
Gu Jiao glanced at Gu Changqing outside the house: "One thousand taels of silver, I won't tell you."
Gu Chengfeng's eyelids jumped: "One thousand taels! Why don't you go grab it!"
Gu Jiao gestured to open the door.
Gu Chengfeng's breath stagnated: "I don't have that many banknotes with me!"
Gu Jiao: "Write an IOU."
Gu Chengfeng: "There is no pen and paper here."
Gu Jiao took out the homemade charcoal and a small book from the small purse her aunt made for her, opened the blank page and handed it to him: "Here."
Gu Chengfeng: "..."
If eyes can kill, Gu Chengfeng has already killed Gu Jiao a hundred times!
Gu Chengfeng gritted his teeth and wrote the IOU: "Is this all right?"
After reading the IOU, Gu Jiao made sure that there were no text traps, she hummed with satisfaction, and put away the charcoal and small notebooks.
Gu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief and continued to observe his elder brother's movements.
The next second, Gu Jiao raised her foot, aimed at his butt, and kicked him out!
I only said I won't tell you, but I didn't say I won't kick you out, right
The countdown to the end of the month, don't waste your monthly pass!
