Chapter 50
Ge Bilian is the niece of the old lady's natal family. Like the old lady, she is a daughter of the Ge family. So after the stepmother married, the old lady treated her father as her own, so she would be kind to her father?
Should not be ah.

When she first came back, she clearly heard her father complaining about the old lady, and even hated her for killing her father's biological mother, Aunt Sun.

Gu Chongyang thought for a long time, but couldn't come up with an answer.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was a cloud of fog in front of her eyes, and the truth of the matter was hidden in the thick fog, and she couldn't see clearly.

No matter what the truth of the matter is, she must protect her mother and never let her be wronged.

Mrs. Ge was seriously ill, and the three daughters-in-law, the eldest wife, the second wife, and the fourth wife took turns to attend to the sick.

Although the third master came back, he automatically didn't continue after he was widowed. Although there was Aunt Xiao who was serving her personally by his side, he couldn't leave him for even a moment.

The third master is deaf and weak. Although he can't take care of the sick, he comes to see Mrs. Ge every morning and evening, which is also very filial.

Although he was not sick, others didn't blame him for it.

When it was the turn of the Fourth Madam, Mrs. Ge, Mrs. Ge was all the more troubled, asking for tea and water, either too cold or too hot.In short, turn the fourth lady around.

The Fourth Madam was sick all night, and when she came back the next morning, she was always extremely tired.

Although she knew that Mrs. Ge didn't like her and wanted to torment her on purpose, she never thought that Mrs. Ge was pretending to be sick on purpose.In addition, she did not want to be honest, so she was very attentive and did not dare to slack off.

Sometimes when she just lay down, Mrs. Ge would wake her up and not let her have a good rest.

In order to serve Mrs. Ge well, when it was her turn to be on duty, she simply sat and stayed up all night.

But even so, Mrs. Ge still scolded her with bad intentions, like a lonely ghost, staying up in the middle of the night to deliberately scare her.

The Fourth Madam worked very hard, although Gu Chongyang looked at it with distress, but he couldn't help her to bear the hard work.

I can only handle the matter of the fourth room properly, let the people in the small kitchen prepare breakfast, and when the fourth wife comes back, let her take a bath and change clothes before eating.After eating, let her do nothing but hurry to catch up on sleep.

The same goes for noon.

With Gu Chongyang's help, although the Fourth Madam worked hard at night to serve the sick, she was able to sleep all day during the day, and she was much less tired.

Seeing the changes in her daughter, Mrs. Si felt very relieved.

When she took a nap, it was already Shen Shizhong (around four o'clock in the afternoon), and Gu Chongyang immediately ran over and said, "Mother, you stand up and walk around to refresh yourself. After burning the incense, we will have dinner. Tonight, I will accompany you You go to watch the old lady at night together."

She must take this opportunity to see what the old lady's illness is.

But the fourth wife disagreed: "No! I went to An Rong Yuan to serve the old lady, not to play. You are a child, what are you going to do?"

If Gu Chongyang went tonight, tomorrow someone might say that the Fourth Madam was uneasy and kind, and asked Gu Chongyang to make a fuss, which made Mrs. Ge's condition worse and her life was hanging by a thread.

Gu Chongyang pouted, very unhappy.

The fourth lady smiled and said: "Okay, don't be upset, don't you want to go to Guangji Temple to play? After a few days when the old lady recovers, I will take you out to play, okay?"

The Fourth Madam was very gentle and patient when she spoke, and she looked at Gu Chongyang with loving eyes, as if she was afraid that Gu Chongyang would be unhappy.

When Gu Chongyang saw it, he couldn't help feeling distressed.

I am so ignorant.It is already very hard for my mother to attend to her sickness every day. Even if I can't solve her mother's problems, I can't cause her mother any trouble.

Gu Chongyang raised his face and smiled slightly at the Fourth Madam: "Mother, don't worry, I will listen to you, if you don't let me go to An Rong Yuan, I will be fine if I don't go."

The Fourth Madam breathed a sigh of relief, and touched Gu Chongyang's face: "What a good girl!"

The mother and daughter talked for a while and were about to have dinner when the eldest lady came to the Rongdong Courtyard.

Gu Chongyang greeted the eldest lady, and the eldest lady smiled and gave Gu Chongyang a box of candied fruit that she brought.

Gu Chongyang took it with both hands, thanked him with a smile, sat on the chair beside him, and listened to the four wives and sisters-in-law talking.

"Fourth brother and sister, you have really made you and your second brother and sister suffer these few days." The eldest lady said with a guilty look: "Because you have to preside over Zhongyi, you and your second brother and sister will be sick for two days, and I will be sick for one day. I'm sorry."

"Sister-in-law, why bother to see outsiders like this, we are all one family." Although she doesn't like her mother-in-law, Mrs. Ge, the fourth wife admires this considerate and tolerant sister-in-law very much: "Our Qingyang Hou's family has a great career, and the hostess is also the host. It's not an easy task, and it's really not easy for a family of hundreds of people to spread the matter on you alone, sister-in-law. I can't help you with anything, if you say you're sorry, it should be me. "

The fourth lady said: "I have been outside for the past few years, and now that I am back, I should be filial in front of the old lady. This is what a daughter-in-law should do. Sister-in-law, please don't be polite to me."

After hearing this, the eldest lady nodded in relief: "Fourth sibling, you are indeed a kind person. If the second sibling is like you, why should our family not be prosperous?"

Why did the second lady get involved again?
Gu Chongyang bit the candied fruit and looked at the eldest lady.

The fourth wife, Shen Shi, was also muttering in her heart, and a little puzzled expression appeared on her face.

The eldest lady sighed and said: "In the past few days, each of you has two days, and only I have been serving the sick for one day. The second younger brother and sister are quite critical, repeatedly saying that I am unfair in dealing with people, and that the old lady is partial. Come here and tell you, starting from this evening, I, like you, will be on duty for two nights."

"How can I do that?" The fourth lady said: "I serve the sick at night, that is the duty of a daughter-in-law to the elders. I have nothing to do during the day, so I can always rest. But sister-in-law, you still have to host the middle school during the day, especially now that it is the end of the year. , it must be very busy. This kind of continuous rotation during the day and night, even the iron body can't bear it."

"Why don't I know?" The lady said, "It's just that there's nothing I can do about it. I just hope that the old lady can recover soon."

The eldest lady stood up and said: "I appreciate your kindness, but other people think differently from you. I am the head mother of the Qingyang Hou Mansion, and I must keep a bowl of water level and not let people gossip. Don't argue with me, I understand what you mean."

She took a long box from the servant girl and handed it to the fourth lady, "You have worked hard these few days, and I can see it all. This ginseng will nourish your body. You can sleep well tonight." Get a good night's sleep and wait until the night after tomorrow before you go."

The fourth lady was surprised and moved when she heard the words.

After seeing off the eldest lady, the fourth lady couldn't help but sighed: "No wonder everyone mentions how virtuous and dignified she is when talking about sister-in-law. No one from the top and bottom said that she is wrong. It turns out that she is really so good. The old lady is so virtuous and dignified. Picky, if you meet her, I'm afraid you can't go wrong."

Not only the Fourth Madam, but Nanny Wu, Hengwu Duruo also felt that the Madam was modest and a good person that was hard to find.

But Gu Chongyang felt a little strange.

In this world, no matter who you are, no matter how perfect you are, there will always be people who are not satisfied with you.

It's unbelievable that there are hundreds of people in Qingyanghou's mansion, all of whom are full of praise from the eldest lady.

Or, the eldest lady is really a good person; or the eldest lady is superb, and she is definitely not a good man.

When the fourth master came back, the family of three had dinner, the fourth lady told about the arrival of the eldest lady, and then praised: "There are very few people I admire in my life, and my sister-in-law is one of them."

The fourth master couldn't help but frowned when he heard the words: "Ma'am, the Hao family is indeed nice, but after all, she has one heart with the old lady and is not a fellow traveler with us. If you know people, you don't know your heart, madam, it's better to keep some distance from her."

Gu Chongyang also agreed with his father's words.

During these days, in order to make up for the vacancy, my father has been busy outside all day long, going out earlier and earlier, returning later and later, and frowning more and more tightly.

Gu Chongyang knew that he must run into walls everywhere when he was outside.

She wanted to help her father very much, but there was nothing she could do.Although she is a reborn person, she really doesn't know anything about official affairs.

After marrying into Yan'en Hou He's Mansion, most of the people who had contacts with her were the female relatives of Xungui's family.Her father was a civil servant, so she really couldn't help.

She blamed herself very much in her heart. It would be great if she could pay more attention to official affairs in her previous life.

The fourth lady's surprised voice came from next to my ear: "Master, did you find out about something?"

"En." The fourth master Gu Zhanming stroked the center of his brows, and said in a deep voice: "This year's Jiangnan Taoist Examination, the chief official of the official department, Zhong Tianman, is the brother of Hao's natal sister-in-law."

When Gu Chongyang heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

According to what his father said, it is impossible for Tian Man not to know that his father is a member of the Gu family, and it is impossible not to know that the two families are related by marriage.Now that you know it, you still do it, which is thought-provoking.

The eldest lady may not be as lenient and kind as she appears.But why, there is no conflict between the fourth room and the big room.

The fourth lady paused when she heard the words, and said after a long time: "Could this be a coincidence?"

"Coincidence?" The fourth master sneered and said, "Everyone in the officialdom is a genius, so there is no coincidence."

Since it's not a coincidence, it's because the eldest lady deliberately opposed Sifang.

Gu Chongyang also heard from his father that in order to have a good future, when he was in office, he didn't say that he worked hard, but he never dared to relax in the slightest.

Others are magistrates, that is three years to clear the magistrate, one hundred thousand snowflake silver.

But my father has nothing to do and won't take any money.Not only that, but he also tried his best to make friends with the local gentry, do what he likes to his superiors, and even used his mother's dowry to bribe his colleagues.

The top and bottom are well organized, and the chief officer of the class examination is a Beijing official. Under normal circumstances, they will not deliberately feel sorry for the people of the Qingyang Hou Mansion.This is one thing my father can be sure of.

But I never expected that the problem actually lies in the class exam.
