Dirty color

Chapter 55
At that time, Gu Yuwen was very friendly to her and often talked to her, even though others hated her, Gu Yuwen still treated her very well. Gu Mingxuan often felt ashamed, thinking that sister Wen was so kind to her, and she was jealous of sister Wen , it really shouldn't be, but later, Gu Yuwen gave her a knife——

On her birthday, Gu Yuwen invited her to tea, and gave her a very delicate and beautiful gold-encrusted jade hairpin, saying it was her birthday present. This was the first birthday gift she received, and she was very happy. Thank you again and again for Gu Yuwen.

The next day, Gu Yuwen, who was crying silently in her room, was discovered by Cui Junfeng, the nephew of the old lady Cui's family. The bead flower is gone, the bead flower is not expensive, but it was given by the princess on the young lady's birthday, and the young lady treats it like an eyeball, carefully treasures it, and is never willing to take it with her."

Then the maid hesitated to speak, and finally spoke out under Cui Junfeng's persecution. She said, "Only the eldest lady came here yesterday. Our lady gave the eldest lady a new hairpin this year. At that time, the eldest lady Seeing that this not-so-precious bead flower was well kept, I asked curiously, and the young lady said that it was a gift from the princess princess, and that's why she cherished it so much. At that time, the young lady was very jealous..."

Then, Cui Junfeng who was angry, Gu Yuwen who begged Cui Junfeng not to blame her, and Gu Mingzhi who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic rushed into her room. After a lot of trouble, they found the crushed pearl under her bed flower.

She was dumbfounded, and hurriedly argued that she didn't do it, but let alone she was stupid at that time, even if she was eloquent, she might not be able to speak up to them. Gu Yuwen's framing this time made her feel unfilial However, Gu Yuwen was unanimously praised by everyone for her pity and humiliation.

Gu Mingxuan knelt down deeply at this moment, her eyes were full of cold light, and when she looked up again, her face was full of gratitude and love for Gu Yuwen.

Gu Yuwen, I kneel this time to repay your kindness for comforting my mother for many years. After that, there will be endless death between us.

Gu Mingxuan's kneeling not only deeply shocked Gu Yuwen, but also Cui Shi, He Shi and others were extremely surprised.

"What are you doing, girl, get up quickly." It was Cui who woke up quickly, as soon as she made a sound, Gu Yuwen also woke up immediately, and hurriedly bent down to help Gu Mingxuan.

Gu Mingxuan followed her to help her up, then held Gu Yuwen's hand affectionately, and said to Cui Shi: "Grandmother, please forgive me, it's not that Xuan'er is ignorant, it's just that these days, I heard Zhuang Nanny say how my mother was when she was young. Love Xuan'er, but Xuan'er not only failed to fulfill her filial piety in front of her mother for a day, but was so tired that her mother was very sad. To perform filial piety in front of mother is to show great kindness to Xuan'er, and Xuan'er kowtow to sister Wen can only be a ten-thousandth of the way to express Xuan'er's gratitude."

Cui's expression softened after hearing what Gu Mingxuan said, she waved to Gu Mingxuan and Gu Yuwen, and said, "You two are good boys, between sisters, there is no need to thank each other, it's okay Getting along in harmony is the greatest comfort to your mother."

If this matter is spread, the reputation of pure filial piety can at least fall on the big girl, Cui's eyes flashed, thinking so.

"Grandmother is right, Xuan'er listens to grandma." Gu Mingxuan took the opportunity to squeeze into Cui Shi's arms, looking very attached, Cui Shi felt slightly uncomfortable, but she didn't show it on her face.

Gu Yuwen also showed a soft smile on her face, but she frowned deeply in her heart. Although she is not in the Shun'anhou Mansion, she has always shown herself as a weak person in the Shun'an Hou Mansion. He is not stingy about rewarding money, so he is very popular, so he also received some news about Gu Mingxuan, the eldest lady of the Houfu, isn't it said that she is so stupid that she is ugly as hell?

Why is it that apart from being a little disfigured, everything else is not the same as the original rumors?

Originally worried that Gu Mingxuan's existence would affect her identity, she had already figured out a way to prevent Gu Mingxuan from showing herself as the young lady of the Hou Mansion, so as to minimize the impact of Gu Mingxuan's return, but now Gu Mingxuan actually kneels down to her It made her very passive all of a sudden, and Gu Mingxuan didn't look stupid at all, so Gu Yuwen didn't dare to act rashly.

However, Gu Yuwen glanced at Mrs. He, no matter what, Mrs. He would not let Gu Mingxuan go. As long as she fanned the flames, there would naturally be Mrs. He and that idiot Gu Mingzhi jumping up and down.

But we must beware of Gu Minghe, she is not a fuel-efficient lamp, but Gu Minghe is also easy to deal with, as long as her reputation is not damaged, and her status is not threatened, Gu Minghe usually doesn't bother to pay attention to her.

When Gu Wenqian came back in the evening, Mrs. He served him diligently. Although Gu Wenqian already hated Mrs. He in his heart, he still wanted to give Mrs. He face in front of others. , is to lose face.

The He family was recently beaten and neglected by Gu Wenqian. Although he hated Gu Mingxuan even more in his heart, under Gu Minghe's persuasion, he finally coaxed Gu Wenqian to go back to Baihetang to rest instead of just living in the study.

At this moment, according to the instructions of taking care of Minghe, Mrs. He carefully served Gu Wenqian to wash and change clothes, and said: "Xuan'er returned home today, and she looks very different from before. Madam Zhuang really taught well, and I am ashamed of myself." Very much."

Gu Wenqian just snorted, what a shame, He did it on purpose, he just didn't pay attention to being deceived before, did he really think he was a fool.

Seeing that Gu Wenqian still looked indifferent, Mrs. He hated Gu Mingxuan in her heart, but continued to say: "I have already ordered the kitchen to make a good table tonight, so we can have a meal together as a family. Let them sisters have a good time."

This proposal was approved by Gu Wenqian. He originally wanted his children to be harmonious, so he nodded.

When Gu Wenqian finished washing and changed into homely clothes and went out, the four girls and one boy, Gu Mingrong, were already waiting in the room. Gu Mingxuan would not take the initiative to cause trouble, Gu Minghe used to pretend to be dignified and gentle, and Gu Yuwen always looked pitiful Gu Mingzhi knew that his father was there, listened to He's advice, held back his anger and refused to look at Gu Mingxuan, and only talked to Gu Mingrong, so now the few people were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was good. Gu Wenqian listened and looked at him. There was a smile on the face.

Following behind Gu Wenqian, seeing Gu Wenqian smiling, he breathed a sigh of relief, as expected, He'er was right, she treated that little bastard better in face, and won Lord Hou's favor, so Lord Hou would be more anxious and relieved Hand over the Hou Mansion to her, otherwise, if Master Hou continues to meddle in that little bastard's affairs, she will have no way to deal with that little bastard in the future, that's not acceptable.

When Gu Wenqian and Mrs. He went in, all five of them stood up and greeted their parents. After that, after Gu Wenqian and Mrs. He took their seats, they sat down respectively.

"Xuan'er, come here." Gu Wenqian called Gu Mingxuan to come over, looked at Gu Mingxuan's face again and again, couldn't help being in a daze for a while, after the daughter's eyebrows opened, she became more and more like his wife...

Although he is still thin and small now, his face has flesh, his complexion has become whiter, and his complexion has also improved. The incomparably exquisite facial features are revealed. The most eye-catching is a pair of black and white phoenix eyes. When staring at you, the eyes are clear It seems that you can see the bottom of your heart in Rushui's eyes, which makes people feel soft-hearted, and the shimmering light in them makes her look extremely charming.

Xiao He has just shown her sharp corners, but it can be seen that her daughter has completely inherited his wife's unparalleled beauty. When standing in front of him like this, his wife seems to be smiling and slightly angry again.

Seeing Gu Wenqian staring at Gu Mingxuan in a daze, Mrs. He knew that Gu Wenqian thought of Princess Huaqing again, and Mrs. He felt bitter and angry. That bitch had been dead for so many years, and he was still thinking like this, yes As a living person, he neglected so thoroughly, Mrs. He couldn't help but want to question Gu Wenqian. Gu Minghe glanced at Mrs. He, but smiled and said, "Father almost doesn't know my sister, and my daughter almost recognizes her today." I can't come out."

Only then did Gu Wenqian come back to his senses, a smile couldn't help creeping up his face, and he said to Gu Mingxuan, "I've grown a bit taller and paler, but I'm still too thin, you have to eat well, you know?"

"Yes, my daughter must treat herself like a pig, eat and sleep, and live up to her father's expectations." Gu Mingxuan smiled playfully, teasing herself with a smile, which made Gu Wenqian laugh too. For a while, the atmosphere improved a lot , He also held back the anger in his heart, and said with a smile: "Master Hou, it's a girl's family, it's better to be thinner, she's pretty, if she gets really fat, Xuan'er will cry."

Gu Wenqian smiled.

No food, no sleep, no talking, after dinner, everyone dispersed, when Gu Wenqian and Mrs. He returned to the bedroom, Gu Wenqian looked at Mrs. He and said directly: "I remember, the dowry of the princess back then, etc. It was directly locked into the small warehouse, and the key is with you, since Nanny Zhuang is back now, you can keep the key for Nanny Zhuang, it will be more convenient for Xuan'er to use in the future."

In case my daughter has to go out, she doesn't even have a suitable jewelry!Gu Wenqian did not say this to save face for He Shi, but when he heard it in He Shi's ears, he felt like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, what?
To actually give the key to the small storeroom to Nanny Zhuang?How can this be!Absolutely not!
Nanny Zhuang is just an outsider... Although the things in that small storeroom are not as good as the big storeroom in Gongzhong, Prince Yi only had the daughter of Princess Huaqing, so it can be said that most of the palace was given to Huaqing. The princess came here as a dowry, and there are countless rare treasures in the palace, not to mention, the former emperor loved his younger brother, and he gave Huaqing princess a lot of gifts...

Although the dowry of Princess Huaqing cannot be compared with the public warehouse in quantity, when it comes to high-quality goods, it cannot be compared with the public warehouse.

Mrs. He had already taken out a lot of jewelry from the small storeroom to play with. It was only because she was afraid of attracting Gu Wenqian's eyes that she didn't take them out to show off. But in her heart, she had already taken the dowry of Princess Huaqing. Treat it all as your own private property, thinking that when the two daughters get married in the future, part of the dowry will be given as a dowry, and the rest will be used for the son to marry a wife. With the signboard of the Marquis of Shun'an, coupled with the dowry of Princess Huaqing as the foundation, it will save face There is also a lining, and Rong'er can even ask for a favored clan daughter.

If the dowry of Princess Huaqing was lost, Rong'er would not be at a disadvantage, but Rong'er's dowry would be limited. It would be basically impossible to hire a noble daughter from the clan, because His own status is really not enough, so Rong'er will still be looked down upon even though he is the eldest son of Marquis Shun'an.

He's heart surged upside down, and he almost screamed, but he still forced a smile on his face and asked, "Why did Lord Hou suddenly talk about this?"

"Why, the Marquis can't ask?" Gu Wenqian put down his teacup, with only a hint of indifference on his face, and looked at He Shi in a blink of an eye.

"Why? I'm just curious." Gu Wenqian's cold eyes surprised He Shi, and said with a smile, "It's just that Madam Zhuang is an outsider after all, and the princess's dowry is placed in..."

"Nurse Zhuang is not an outsider." Gu Wenqian interrupted Mrs. He, and said coldly, Mrs. He froze, feeling bitter and even going crazy, yes, Mrs. Zhuang is not an outsider, her wife is an outsider. For so many years, how could he have seen her in his eyes... He wanted to scream and ask Gu Wenqian where he put his wife, but the remaining reason made her suppress this impulse.

Seeing Gu Wenqian's meaning, I'm afraid that she has already made up her mind to let Nanny Zhuang hold the key. Therefore, Mrs. He did not dare to confront Gu Wenqian head-on, so she used the trick of dragging words in a hurry, and said in embarrassment: "The princess's dowry has been kept in the The storeroom has not been counted in these years. Some things were taken out and placed when the princess was still there, and then they were stored in the public storehouse. It will take about four or five days to count all these and put them back, and I will hand over the key to Nanny Zhuang after five days, do you think it is okay?"

Gu Wenqian frowned, thinking about it, he finally nodded and said, "Yes."

Only then did He breathe a sigh of relief, the key, she would never give it to that old godmother Zhuang Nanny, how dare the old godmother insist on asking for the key to the small warehouse, dreaming!

Serving Gu Wenqian to lie down, after seeing Gu Wenqian lay down, he ignored himself, instead fell asleep sullenly, He was short of breath, and thinking about the rare treasures in the warehouse, He couldn't fall asleep anymore.

Turning his head and taking a look at Gu Wenqian, a vicious light flashed in He's eyes, Lord Hou, you forced me to do this, if anything happens to that old godly woman, don't blame me, He thought viciously.

On the second day, Mrs. He got up early in the morning. After serving Gu Wenqian to get up, Wutong Cress came in to help her wash up. Seeing her appearance, the two of them were shocked and hurriedly asked: "Ma'am, are you feeling unwell? Is this the servant girl?" Ask Doctor Qian to come here."

"No need." He's heart was full of anger, he didn't sleep well all night, now looking at his haggard look in the mirror, He looked gloomyly for a while, then smiled slowly, Gu Wenqian, you forced me of.

He took Gu Mingxuan and others to pay respects to Mrs. Cui, and told Mrs. Cui about Gu Wenqian asking her to hand over the key to Nanny Zhuang. She got Mrs. Cui's permission, and Mrs. Cui did not intend to stop her at all. On the contrary, he is still happy to see it succeed, and He secretly hates it.

After returning to the house, Mrs. He sat for a while, her expression changed, and she suddenly became grim, as if she had made a decision, so she summoned Madam He and gave some instructions.

Mother He was shocked when she heard the words, she hurriedly looked around and saw that there was no one in the house, she was still worried, she went out and asked Shuiqin and Wutong to guard the door before re-entering the house, and said to Mrs He: "Ma'am, didn't you say goodbye?" Is there nothing to do with it? How could I think of such a stubble again?"

Madam He persuaded her earnestly: "Ma'am, that man is ambitious and ruthless. To put it bluntly, he is worse than a pig or a dog. You finally got rid of it. Why...you want to take the initiative to contact him again?"

Thinking of Gu Wenqian's extremely indifferent attitude towards herself since Zhao Zongyuan came to withdraw the engagement last time and was forced to quit by that little bastard's trick, He's eyes shed tears, and she said excitedly: "Nurse, do you think I want this? But look at Lord Hou, ever since that little bastard came back, he immediately turned cold towards Zhi'er, and made me shameless in front of people several times, and now he still wants to hand over the small warehouse to that old godly mother Zhuang... Where did he put me..."

"In his heart, I have never existed. He only sees that bitch in his eyes. After that bitch died, he rarely even came back to the Marquis Mansion. Now that the little bitch has been found, he has returned I came back when I was free, for fear that that little bastard would be wronged a bit..."

"I will never hand over the small warehouse to that old godly woman." With a crazy light in He's eyes, he looked at Madam He and said, "Go, find him, and tell me what he wants. I will try my best to help him find it, but he will help me get rid of that old godly woman, and as for that little bastard, I will not let her die so easily."

Without the teaching of the old godly woman, wouldn't that little bastard be allowed to be rubbed by her?

Nanny He really couldn't hold back Mrs. He, so she sighed helplessly and had no choice but to agree.

In the afternoon, Nanny He made an excuse, saying that something happened at home, and she left Shun'an Hou Mansion.

Nanny He's home is in the west of the city, and there is a shop that the He family has saved money to buy over the years, and Nanny He's son will take care of it, so Nanny He's son also lives nearby, but Nanny He said It was home, and finally changed the silk clothes on his body at home, and changed into coarse linen clothes. When he arrived in the south of the city, he saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he knocked on the wooden door of a house that looked no different from other people's houses.

Four long, two short, one long, put down her fingers, Mammy He's heart was pounding, she was a little scared.

It's just that there is no way out.
