After the Cloud Harvest Festival, men and women take action, not too many families hand over invitations, make banquets, matchmakers come to the door, and get married. On the contrary, the Gu Mansion was deserted, just because the Second Miss Gu Qing was ill and didn't go on the day of the Caiyun Festival, Yin Shi restrained the other daughters from going.
Gu Zishu, the third young master of the Gu family, went, but everyone who pays attention to his morality knows that who would dare to assign a daughter to such a person? The Yin family is not in a hurry. His sons are only twelve. Even if he is seventeen or eighteen, it is not too late. Men are not like women. After a long delay, no one wants them.
Everyone didn't know what happened to Gu Qing's illness. Gu Qing was so angry that she couldn't catch the culprit that made her sick. She was suspicious of Gu Yi, but Gu Yi knew Yin Shi very well and knew that if she really fell ill with Gu Qing, all their girls would not be able to go out to see the lanterns, so Gu Yi would not do such a stupid thing. Yin's mother and daughter together thought that it was Li Auntie who did it.
How did they know that this was really Gu Yi's handwriting.
What if you can't meet a talented person? Her target is the little uncle! I heard that Gu Zhidai is pregnant...
"Little aunt is pregnant?" Gu Lian took the pen for a while, smoothed it on the inkstone platform, and continued to write and practice calligraphy, "Has this story spread?"
Although Zhuxiang was not in the Gu Mansion, the news was still well-informed. Her connections have not expired. There is a cousin of hers in the house who has been spreading news to her through Mei Xiang's hand.
"It hasn't spread, the third miss found out about it." Zhuxiang picked up the ink ingot to grind the ink for her, "The third miss has placed someone next to the little aunt, and she still gets along well, and has won the trust of the little aunt. , know a lot of things."
After Gu Lian finished writing, he put down his pen and looked at it, but it still didn't look good. She has no character at all in writing. It is really difficult for her to let a Miao person write the Chinese characters with a brush.
"Auntie didn't spread the word about this?" Gu Lian raised her eyebrows.
Zhuxiang shook her head: "It seems that the fetus is unstable. It's only been more than a month. I was afraid that it was a misdiagnosis, so I didn't dare to say it. When I look back and sit on the fetus, it will definitely spread."
Gu Zhidai is pregnant, which is not a good thing for herself.
Gu Lian grabbed the growing baby ice silkworm from the jade box and touched it in the palm of his hand, frowning in thought.
Now Gu Zhidai has no idea how many people are staring at her husband, and Gu Yi is waiting for her to die in childbirth to replace him. Now Gu Yi's people are very embarrassed by Gu Zhimo's side, which undoubtedly adds too much convenience to Gu Yi's actions, but if Gu Zhidai is careless, she and the child may not be able to keep it.
But this is not something Gu Lian should worry about. Everyone is sweeping the snow in front of the door, and she just wants to see how much trouble those women can make.
"I know about this, you pay close attention to it, and report any new news."
Bamboo incense promises.
As soon as the Cloud Harvest Festival is over, it will be the Mid-Autumn Festival on the 15th day of the eighth month in the next two weeks. At that time, there will be a banquet in the palace, but not everyone can attend. Gu Zhimo's official position is not high enough, so naturally he can't go. The palace banquet has nothing to do with them, but Gu Lian can go.
During lunch, Qiao Mingyu gave her a post and asked her to participate, saying that she got to know some handkerchiefs anyway. She has seen Gu Lian for so long and has no close friends in her boudoir. Although she doesn't care about these things, she doesn't want Gu Lian to be so shocking. She herself suffered a lot of strange eyes, but because of her identity, no one dared to make her feel uncomfortable, and Gu Lian was different, so she probably couldn't bear such heavy malice.
Gu Lian responded with a smile, but didn't plan to make any handkerchiefs.
She had seen enough of those noble ladies. Although she didn't feel nauseated, she really didn't like them much. Instead of calling them sisters with a smile, she might as well deal with the noble girls in the women's army. But now she and Qiao Mingyu are not very familiar with each other, so it's hard to say it directly, so she will accept it for the time being.
"When will the princess return to the palace?"
After Gu Lian fed Gu insects as usual, he would go to the study room to read books. The princess is also here often. Basically, she is not reading military books or miscellaneous books or going to the small school to practice martial arts. The sun is a bit big today, so Su Dan dragged her back to read books, Gu Lian looked up and saw Qiao Mingyu who came in.
Qiao Mingyu hesitated for a while, and said, "Two more days."
She should have gone back after the Cloud Harvest Festival, but the palace was really boring. In the mansion, she was accompanied by Gu Lian when she read books. She could practice martial arts and compete with the commander, but when she went to the palace, she had to be restrained. She was either waiting for her father or spending time in the palace, which was really boring.
It would be great if she could bring Gu Lian in, but unfortunately not, the palace is too dangerous, I am afraid that she will not be able to protect her if she lives for a long time.
The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is not long, she can still protect it, and the imperial concubine will not be stupid enough to cause trouble at such a time, but if she lives in the palace for a long time, it is not necessarily. Before she brought Gu Lian to her house, it was because Gu house was not safe. How could she push Gu Lian into danger because of her own selfish desires
Gu Lian put down the book, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and told her about her own affairs: "Today I heard that the second sister is ill."
Qiao Mingyu strangely likes to hear her talk about the shortcomings of these parents, and she is usually impatient with them. But what Gu Lian said, she liked to listen.
After a pause, seeing Qiao Mingyu's interest, Gu Lian gradually got a hint of a smile, and then said: "I don't know how I got sick, I couldn't go out on the night of Caiyun Festival. Have pity on my concubine sisters. , being detained by my mother and not allowed to go out."
The Gu family's mistress, Yin Shi, is not a kind mother, and everyone knows that she is a bodhisattva-faced and black-hearted woman. The persecution of the concubine was not covered up, and was quietly stabbed out by Concubine Li.
Aunt Li left and right had no daughter, and sooner or later when she gave birth to a concubine, she would be separated from the family. Dirty water could not touch her son. Besides, there was something wrong with the Yin family. The ones who were stabbed in the spine and scolded were the daughter-in-law of the Yin family, as well as the Yin family's own daughter. The concubine was not raised by the mistress, everyone knows that, although the concubine's reputation will be a bit of a hindrance, in the end it can't compare to the first daughter Gu Qing. Now everyone is saying that Gu Qing must be the same as her mother, and she will be a black hand in the future. ruthless.
I don't know if Gu Qing knew about it or not. If he knew, he would be so angry that he wouldn't be able to eat. Adolescent girls are prone to acne, so she has to take it easy. If she is not careful, her face will be disfigured by pimples and pimples, and she would not dare to tell her if she wanted to come.
The aunt was impulsive, but she completely ignored it.
Qiao Mingyu also heard about the Gu family, and she also sent Sudan to understand it. After listening to Gu Lian, she understood.
In the past few days, listening to Gu Lian's parents briefly talk about small things, but it has opened up a new world for her. I thought it was only the women in the palace who did it one by one, ruthless, but I didn't expect it to be even worse in the house. Because of being able to get in touch with outsiders, the means of these house fights are more varied and complicated than Gong Dou.
Qiao Mingyu looked at Gu Lian's soft and weak appearance, and determined that she could not let Gu Lian go home. Would it be okay if I went back? There are many daughters-to-be and new daughters-in-law who have been framed in this way.
No, Gu Lian must be raised in her mansion. Even if there are few princes, the Gu mansion is a dangerous place.
Gu Lian didn't know that she was just casually talking about gossip, so Qiao Mingyu made up her mind so much, and then suddenly said: "May you go home for a few days during the New Year, usually you must live in the Princess Mansion, and you must have at least a team of guards when you go out. Follow. Sudan, look at Alian, don't let her be willful."
"..." EXM? ?
Gu Lian was speechless, watching Qiao Mingyu thinking while giving orders, adding a lot of precautions, wishing to arm her to the teeth. When Gu Lian watched Su Dan take the order to leave, she recovered her voice: "Princess...don't do this to me..."
"You are the aunt of the Taoist priest." Qiao Mingyu interrupted her, "Bengong promised to take good care of you."
It's an excuse to hear it, right? Princess, if you have the kind, just come up with a convincing reason!
Gu Lian shook his head helplessly and went with her.
