Spring Girl's Notes

The letter was written by Uncle Gu Yantao.

At the beginning, I greeted my grandfather's body, expressing how the whole family misses my grandfather.

Seeing this, Song Pan'er curled her lips: No wonder the old man is a little angry, she can't stand it anymore!In the past six years, people in the capital have almost forgotten about them, what miss...

Then, the uncle tried his best to want his grandfather to return to Beijing.Because of his errands, he couldn't come to Yanling Mansion to serve his grandfather, he felt uneasy and always felt that he had not fulfilled his filial piety.

Song Pan'er pursed her lips even more.

The relationship between the uncle and the old man has always been bad...

The letter was very long, and there was a lot of nonsense in the middle.

Song Pan'er skipped and watched, and halfway through, she saw that the uncle sent the eldest son Gu Chenzhi to Yanling Mansion to pick up the old man.

The old man probably saw this and put down the letter.

Song Pan'er wanted to drop the letter.

The old man didn't even say that he was going back to Beijing, but the uncle sent his nephew to pick him up. Where is the invitation?

It's simply coercion.

According to the character of the old man, the eldest nephew would also be scolded when he came.

Song Pan'er sat up straight and didn't look closely.

Gu Yanzhen read it carefully.

When he looked up, he saw his daughter Gu Jinzhi sitting there drinking tea, with an elegant demeanor, a kind of tranquility immersed in the years.

Song Pan'er would not have this composure in two lifetimes.

Gu Yanzhen felt that her daughter was very strange, but her strangeness was not a bad thing, but a temperament that some people couldn't ask for. Gu Yanzhen was not worried about doubts, but happy.

"Daddy, what did uncle say in the letter?" Gu Jin asked after seeing his father finished reading the letter.

Gu Yanzhen smiled, and said, "Uncle sent your eldest cousin here to take us back to Beijing." Then he asked Gu Jinzhi like he used to coax children when he was a child, "Sister Jin, do you remember your eldest cousin?"

"I was already six years old when I left Beijing, Daddy, it's strange if I don't remember." Gu Jinzhi said.

Song Pan'er couldn't help laughing.

When Gu Jin kissed Gu Yanzhen, she also acted like a good girl.She seemed to answer her father's question meekly and respectfully, but her words were blocked, and Song Pan'er couldn't help laughing.

Gu Yanzhen also laughed, touched his nose, and said helplessly, "You child..."

The atmosphere in the room has a long-lost warmth.

After that night, the old man didn't mention the letter.

Gu Yanzhen and Song Pan'er didn't dare to mention it either.

Mother Song and Haitang searched where the word "returning to Beijing" came from, and found Gu Yanzhen.

The two stopped immediately and didn't dare to check further.

Song's mother specifically told Gu Jinzhi not to tell her, even if Song Pan'er heard it from other places, she would help cover it up: "... If Madam suspects the third master, I'm afraid the two of them will have a quarrel again. .”

Women's associative ability has always been stronger.

Song Pan'er is even more so.

No matter how Gu Yanzhen explained it, Song Pan'er would definitely suspect that he was doing it for Gu Xiuzhi, and I'm afraid there will be another great disturbance at that time!

"I know mom, I promise I won't say a word!" Gu Jinzhi said.

Mother Song nodded with a smile.

She believed in Gu Jinzhi.

Gu Jinzhi asked Nishang to tell the maids and mothers-in-law all over the yard that anyone who spread rumors indiscriminately would send them out.

Nishang was fierce in the first place, and Gu Jinzhi valued her highly. No one in the yard dared to offend her. Her words were more effective than the nanny wishing her mother.

Sure enough, Gu Jinzhi never heard the word "return to Beijing" again.

On the fifth day of the seventh lunar month, Gu Jinzhi's second aunt, Qin Shi, came to the door and brought some bolts of silk and satin for Song Pan'er, and it was said that it was the same batch that was going to be offered as an offering.

Song Pan'er was overjoyed.

"...Sister Jin will be twelve next month, right?" Second Aunt suddenly mentioned.

Song Pan'er nodded and said with a smile: "I want to hold a banquet, but I am wondering where to get some good materials to make clothes. Last year's materials were all used up during the Dragon Boat Festival. Second sister-in-law knows my heart."

The Second Mrs. Song took the Ru kiln teacup, slowly moved the floating leaves, and the fragrance was gradually released, and her voice was also a little sweet: "Pan'er, do you have an idea about sister Jin's matter?"

Song Pan'er raised her eyes with some doubts.

What about Miss Jin?What's up?

Second Mrs. Song smiled ambiguously.

Song Pan'er understood that it was Sister Jin's marriage.

Mentioning this gave Song Pan'er a headache.

So far, no one has come to say goodbye...

She had her eyes on a few children, but it was a pity that Gu Yanzhen was not satisfied.If it's not that the household is low, it's that they despise other people's children for being worthless.

"Second sister-in-law, are you optimistic?" Song Pan'er smiled and sat next to Mrs. Song's second.

Song Yanpei, the eldest son of Mrs. Song Er, is only a few months older than Gu Jinzhi.The child was a bit naughty and couldn't study well.But my natal brothers and sisters-in-law are all gentle and gentle. With such parents-in-law, Gu Jinzhi couldn't suffer from marriage in the past...

Song Pan'er didn't mind either.

"...is my natal nephew." Second Mrs. Song said with a low smile, "My elder brother's fourth son is called Qin Zhi, and his name is Ruoping. Ruoping is my sister-in-law's only son, although he is the fourth son. In the future, if Sister Jin really marries, she will also be the eldest daughter-in-law of the clan."

Mrs. Song's second wife's natal family is a big family in Jiangning, a family of poems and books.Mrs. Song's eldest brother, Qin Jiguang, is the patriarch and the eldest son of Dizhi.

Qin Jiguang's wife was infertile for eight years, and the Qin family took in their aunt for the sake of their ancestors.

That aunt had a strong stomach and gave birth to two children in three years, which was very much in Qin Jiguang's favor.

Mrs. Qin couldn't be more angry, and the maid beside her gave her husband a roommate, and soon gave birth to a son, so she took care of her aunt.

In the tenth year, Mrs. Qin finally became pregnant and gave birth to Qin Zhi.

Qin Zhi is the first son, but ranked fourth.

"If I remember correctly, Second Sister-in-law's nephew is older than Sister Jin's, right?" Song Pan'er said.

Second Mrs. Song smiled: "It's March in Renchen year."

Song Pan'er counted, Qin Zhi was born in March of Renchen year, and Gu Jinzhi was born in August of Bingshen year, four and a half years older than him!

"Then he is seventeen?" Song Pan'er felt a little unhappy, "Has he achieved fame?"

Mrs. Song Er felt a little unnatural: "Not yet..."

Not going to school at the age of 17 is not a big deal.

There will be Qiu Wei next year. Wouldn't it be better if we can get a scholar and talk about marriage?Why do you bring it up at this time?

I am not sure at all!

Is the child too stupid, or can't bear it?

No matter what kind it is, what can a man who does not stop studying for his own career have in the future?Scholars, farmers, businessmen, who doesn't want to be an official?

"I'll ask the third master what he means." Song Pan'er smiled perfunctorily and said nothing more.

She is not satisfied.

The Second Mrs. Song sighed and forced a smile: the matter was not settled.

Song Pan'er always blames others for not coming to ask for marriage.She has such a high vision, and the Gu family is the mansion of the Duke, so how can ordinary people in Yanling Mansion dare to overestimate themselves!The second wife of Song is still a sister-in-law, Song Pan'er is not forgiving, and she doesn't even think about it!

At the wharf of the Longxi River, simple awning boats dock slowly.

An old man over half a hundred years old, with a straight blue cloth, a piece of mending, and neatly trimmed sideburns.Although he was dressed simply, he didn't behave like a servant.

He asked people: "Where is there a medicine shop in Yanling City?"

The person being asked was a middle-aged boatman. Looking at this old man in green cloth and straight clothes, he didn't look like he was sick.

The boatman sized up the old man in Tsing Yi, and said, "There are too many medicine shops in the city. If you don't have money, they won't ask you for more medicines in the Zhou family's medicine house, but it's just not enough for serious illnesses; , opened the Qin Family Baicao Hall, the owner is the imperial physician of the Princess Mansion, with good medical skills and good character; don't go to the Xia Family Baicao Hall, their old man is so embarrassing, he is not as good as a child..."

The old man listened carefully, wrote down what the boatman said one by one, and then bowed to thank him.

He really is a gentleman.

There are not many people at the pier bowing.

After thanking the boatman, the old man boarded the boat again.

After a while, a young man came down.He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, tall and straight.Although he was wearing a blue-gray cloth straight gown, he was personable and extraordinary.

The old man followed behind the man, who was the master.

It's just that this man doesn't look sick either.

The old man said something in a low voice, but the man didn't answer, just nodded slightly.

The master and servant parked the boat at the pier and entered the city.
