Spring Girl's Notes

Gu Jinzhi has a headache about needlework.

"Is the nanny in the palace very strict?" Gu Jinzhi asked his mother.

Song Pan'er smiled and said: "Not necessarily all the mothers in the palace are strict. But the queen mother said that the master at home didn't pay attention to teaching you. I'm afraid it's because of your status as a girl, you are timid, and you can't do what the master wants. Duty. So the nanny sent here should be strict."

Gu Jinzhi frowned even deeper.

Song Pan'er laughed again, patted her hand lightly, and said, "What's so difficult about it, you frown like this? Girls frowning is not good, please don't do that."

"It's not embarrassing, but I don't think it's necessary." Gu Jinzhi said.

She went to the pharmacy to help, the queen mother and the emperor knew about it.

Therefore, when she showed up in public, the royal family did not criticize her too harshly, keeping her in a deep boudoir like a famous lady.

Now, because of such a trivial matter as embroidery, a mother is specially assigned to her.

It can only be said that the Queen Mother must have seen her embroidery work.

Her only finished product is the sachet for Zhu Zhongjun.

"What's not necessary?" Song Pan'er straightened her face, "You should also make good use of your snacks. For your needlework, the empress dowager is worried..."

Gu Jinzhi could only say yes.

Although she knew that no matter how hard she worked, she might not be able to learn well.

She has no interest in needlework, which is the source.For example, when she was a child, her mother forced her to learn piano, which almost killed her; while studying medicine with her grandfather, her parents found it very boring, fearing that she would not be able to bear it, but she relished it.

"I will do my best." Gu Jinzhi said.

Only then did Song Pan'er regain her smile.

In the afternoon, Song Pan'er also took Gu Jinzhi out to pay New Year's greetings.

They went to the old house first.

The eldest aunt gave Gu Jinzhi a big red envelope.As lucky money.

Song Pan'er is more concerned about the fourth girl, Gu Shanzhi.Last time I was busy with Chinese New Year, so I didn't follow up to ask what happened to Gu Shanzhi.

The eldest lady doesn't know.

She said: "Tomorrow, I should come back to pay New Year's greetings. From the fourth to the seventh day of the lunar new year, I will hold a feast here, and you all have to come."

Song Pan'er said yes.

Then, she and Gu Jinzhi went to pay New Year's greetings to the second wife.

The second lady is rather cold.

In this family, the eldest lady is a first-rank imperial order.Song Pan'er is a third rank, and she is more beautiful than the second wife.

The second wife's daughter entered the palace and became the imperial concubine. She should be the most prominent, but she was the only one who didn't have an imperial title. This made her feel very unbalanced.

I can't think of it on weekdays, and I don't bother to care about it.

But during the Chinese New Year.Without a title, you cannot enter the palace to pay New Year's greetings.Seeing Song Pan'er and the eldest lady enter the palace every year, the second lady would feel angry.

So when Song Pan'er and Gu Jinzhi came to pay New Year's greetings, she happened to be angry.

With her attitude like this, Song Pan'er was naturally unwilling to talk to her, and said a few words on the scene.So he took Gu Jinzhi back to the main courtyard and went to the room.

The second wife didn't even give Gu Jinzhi the New Year's money.

——*——*——

Back to the upper room in the main courtyard, the eldest lady asked about the old man.

"I'll take the children with me later. I'll follow you there to pay New Year's greetings?" the lady said.

The old man did not participate in the ancestor worship on New Year's Eve last year.

The eldest lady was a little worried about her.

Song Pan'er sighed, and said: "You don't have to go, and you won't see each other if you go. Sister Jin and I came to pay New Year's greetings. Huaqin said that the old man is still sleeping. He sleeps a lot recently..."

The lady's heart sank slightly.

The old man's prophecy last year, I'm afraid it will come true.

On the one hand, the eldest lady is reluctant to part with the old man.On the other hand, I was also worried about the Grand Master.

Once the old man is gone, the old man must resign.Go back to the ancestral home and guard the system for three years.

Now is the time for his official career to be prosperous, I'm afraid he won't want to leave.

At that time, the elder will definitely lose his temper again, and the family will be in a mess again.

"You look at the old man's complexion okay?" asked the eldest lady, "I saw him last time, he was very healthy."

"I met his old man the day before yesterday, and he is healthier than before. It may be that he has slept a lot recently, and his complexion has improved." Song Pan'er said.

But I was thinking in my heart, is it a flashback?

But it was not easy for her to say this in front of the eldest lady.

Madam thought of...

The sister-in-law was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

In the end, Song Pan'er took Gu Jinzhi's farewell and went home silently.

Song Pan'er didn't go back to her room, and took Gu Jinzhi directly to the old man's yard.

Huaqin said again: "The old man is not awake..."

Song Pan'er lowered her voice and said anxiously, "Why are you still awake? What time did the old man go to bed last night?"

The old man didn't go to worship his ancestors yesterday, nor did he have a New Year's Eve dinner with everyone.

Huaqin stopped him, saying that the old man ordered not to disturb him.

"I just fell asleep at the beginning of Hai." Huaqin thought for a while and said.

It's almost done now.

The old man slept for nine hours today...

It's almost a day.

Gu Jinzhi was very worried.

She wants to go in and have a look.

But Hua Qin said: "Miss Qi, don't disturb the old man. The old man wants to sleep more, so you can let him sleep more. The little one just went to see it, the old man is fine, just fell asleep..."

Gu Jinzhi stopped walking.

"The old man is awake, please come and tell us." Gu Jinzhi said.

Then she pulled her mother, and the two went back to the main courtyard.

Song Pan'er's heart kept beating suddenly.

At the beginning of the new year, don't make any accidents.

Gu Yanzhen took Brother Xuan and Brother Xiu out to celebrate the New Year, only Song Pan'er, Gu Jinzhi and two young children who had just turned one year old were at home. If she was full of heart at the moment, she didn't know who to discuss with.

In case the old man is really gone...

There are many things that need to be prepared in advance...

There are still many things that need to be put aside first.For example, the marriage between Gu Jinzhi and Gu Pozhi, the second wife and fifth daughter, had to be shelved first.

Gu Jinzhi sat for a while, saw that his mother had nothing to say, so he went back to his room first.

She took out her needle and thread to practice her hands again, lest the maid in the palace come.I was born with my own hands, and I was scolded the first time.

But I couldn't calm down.

Distraught, she had to call Zhilei to grind the ink again, she was ready to write.

After the ink was polished, she wrote three bad ones in one go.

Zhilei knew that she must be in a bad mood right now, so she stayed silent and waited quietly.

Gu Jinzhi wrote several more in a row, but it was still not good.

She simply dropped the pen and sat on the Kang a little weakly.My heart felt sour.She remembered the feeling of her grandfather leaving her in her previous life.

Rongnan was two years old when his grandfather passed away in his previous life.Despite all kinds of reluctance, grandpa finally saw his most beloved granddaughter get married and have children.

What about now?

Gu Jinzhi is not married yet.

Even if the old man leaves, he will leave regrets in his heart, right?

Thinking of these, my eyes are wet.

Zhilei hurried over to comfort her, gently held her hand and asked, "Girl. Where did you feel wronged? Girl, tell me, I'll help you with an idea..."

Gu Jinzhi touched the corner of his eyes lightly.

She shook her head and said: "I'm fine, I'm just worried about my grandfather. Huaqin said that he slept for nine hours today, and my heart is in a mess."

Zhilei had also heard that the old man was about to die in a year.

now.Exactly one year.

Zhilei was so full of words that she couldn't speak immediately.She had no choice but to wrap her arms around Gu Jinzhi's shoulders and hug her gently, like a big sister.

After falling asleep like this, the old man never woke up.

When Gu Yanzhen came back in the afternoon and heard about it, he was also very anxious. He and Song Pan'er went in to see it twice, but Huaqin didn't dare to stop him anymore.

At noon on the second day of junior high school.The old man still didn't wake up, so Gu Yanzhen sent someone to tell the old man.Let the eldest lady and the eldest master be prepared.

The old man is not at home, he went out to pay New Year's greetings.

The eldest lady was stunned for a moment.

With last year's prophecy ahead, and this abnormal sleepiness behind, I'm afraid the old man is really bad this time.The eldest lady couldn't care less about being sad.

The funeral of the old man will naturally fall on her again.

She needs to make plans early, so as not to be in a hurry when she is in a hurry, and she is really disrespectful to the old man.

The most urgent thing is to need an excellent board to beat the coffin.

The eldest lady ordered people to go to the outer courtyard, and called the chief steward and two retainers to come in, and asked them to handle this matter: "Go and order an excellent board first, and ask for the best water nanmu."

The manager and the two doormen could guess that something happened to the old man.

The three hurriedly said yes, turned around and left.

In the evening, the chief manager and two doormen came back, saying that at such a time, there is no excellent water nanmu in the lumber shop in Beijing.

"...I know a lumber dealer, he has a little secret." The manager quietly said to the lady, "He has a private collection of golden nanmu, which is said to not rot for a thousand years. It only takes 5000 taels of silver to bring it back .I made a birthday board and put on a layer of paint, but it can’t be seen.”

The eldest lady was furious.

"Stupid thing! Is that something we can afford?" Da Furen scolded, "You are getting more and more out of your mind now."

In this dynasty, golden nanmu can only be used by the royal family, and ordinary people use it as arrogance.

This is a word that has been circulated in the past few years, but it has not yet entered into law.

But everyone knows it well.

The eldest lady doesn't know what kind of arrogance the chief steward has learned from the elder, and now he is acting so boldly.

This made the eldest lady shudder.

Such a thing that can obviously be taken advantage of by others, has the old master ever done it outside?

"It's okay, the Tan family and Shen Wang each got a piece." The chief manager didn't take it seriously, "Since the Tan family and Shen Wang can afford it, so can we."

Da Furen was furious, she stared at him suddenly, and said: "If you say this again, this small temple in our residence will not be able to keep your big Buddha."

Only then did the chief steward know that the eldest lady was really angry, and hurriedly knelt down and said wrongly: "The little one is talking nonsense, the lady is a lot, let's bypass the little one."

The eldest lady didn't want to compete with the housekeeper, so she asked him to get up.

"Let's look for it again. If there is no excellent water nanmu, we need fragrant nanmu." The lady said, "Pannus is not rotten, and the longevity board must be nanmu."

The chief steward and the retainers had to leave.

The eldest lady sent someone to the third room to inquire about the news.

The person who came back said that the old man was still awake. Gu Yanzhen called twice, but the old man didn't respond.

Now, the people in the third room are guarding the old man's house...

"Go to the shop and tell the young master to go to the third room too." The lady said.

Then, she asked someone to notify the second room.

After everything was explained, the eldest lady was about to go to the third bedroom, and the eldest master came back.

He ate wine today and smelled of alcohol all over his body.
