The daily life of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, thick black

Chapter 127
After the child's [-]th birthday ceremony, Zhang Tingyu and Gu Huaishu were free and had time to tidy up the gift list.

But when she picked up one of the long gift lists, Gu Huaishu's hand stopped for a moment. She frowned and asked, "Why didn't you see Shen Qi on the day of the Bai Ri ceremony? He gave away so many gifts." Li, but no one came. It's strange..."

"What's so strange? We are from a scholarly family and an official in the court. Even if he is rich, he is just a businessman."

Scholars, farmers, businessmen, merchants are the last, and it is impossible to sit at the table.

Although Zhang Tingyu said so, he felt that Shen Qi's absence was not a big deal, but in fact...

It was really a problem that Shen Qi didn't come.

He and Gu Huaixiu finished sorting out the list of gifts here, Shen Yang was not the only one who didn't come after the gift, even Liao Fengyuan also didn't come after the gift.At that time, I thought that this person would not come, but I didn't expect Li to come.

Zhang Tingyu frowned, looked at the two names above, and finally sighed.

Gu Huaixiu said: "If someone comes, you will be worried, and if you don't come, you will worry about other things. How can a person be as entangled as you are?"

Zhang Tingyu shook his head and just paced around the room, "He didn't come, it must be because something happened..."

A flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and Zhang Tingyu directly raised his voice and shouted, "Ade! Immediately go to the Yihuchun and Wanqing Guild Hall to ask whether shopkeeper Liao and Shen Qi have all gone back to Jiangnan! "

Previously, Luo Xuanwen had been taking advantage of Shen Qi's absence to make waves in the south of the Yangtze River, which was quite powerful, but now that the overall situation was about to come to fruition, Shen Qi went back at this juncture.

I really don't know if he did it on purpose, or if he got better all of a sudden.

A while ago he wondered why he was still in the capital, but now he thought about Shen Yang's sudden return, Zhang Tingyu felt that things were difficult.

He sat opposite Gu Huaixiu, watched Gu Huaixiu take over the fat brother from the nanny, and said, "Why do I feel... I fell into Shen Chao's trick?"

"You didn't fall for it, it was Luo Xuanwen who fell for it."

Gu Huaishu leisurely took a piece of red paper cut during the Chinese New Year, and passed it in front of the fat man, but he refused to hold it for him, and said in a neutral tone: "Anyway, do you want to get this joint, Luo Xuanwen?" I can't help it, you are the big boss behind it, no matter what happens, everything is in Luo Xuanwen's hands."

The reason why Zhang Tingyu suddenly became worried was very simple, just because they had seen such a situation before, and it could even be said that they had known about it for a long time, and at that time they were not standing opposite to Shen Qi, but by his side.

At that time, they were with Shen Chong, and Luo Xuanwen was the one who needed to be dealt with.

At that time, Shen Chao pretended to be dead, and then lured all those people out. How similar is the current situation?
Zhang Tingyu felt that he was being careless almost instantly, but Gu Huaishu also pointed out one reason why he underestimated the enemy - he was just the boss behind, not Luo Xuanwen.

After all, Zhang Tingyu was just a kite watcher, the money belonged to him, and the matter belonged to Luo Xuanwen.

Even if he wrote a letter to Luo Xuanwen, Luo Xuanwen might not listen to it.

What happened to this matter depends on the news from Jiangnan.

Not half an hour later, Ade came back and said that Shen Yang had left the guild hall this morning, and Liao Fengyuan had also left on the same day.

I am afraid that at this moment, people have already boarded the boat to Tongzhou Wharf, and returned to the south of the Yangtze River along the canal.

When Zhang Tingyu heard this, he had no choice but to send someone to keep an eye on the news from Jiangnan.

In 38 years, spring has begun, and the spring is warm and flowers are blooming outside. Gu Huaishou hugged his fat brother and went out to see the flowers and the world outside.

Now she doesn't read any subset of classics and history to her child, she only plays with him.

But as soon as he walked out of the door today, he saw Wang Fushun's family coming.

Gu Huaixiu's footsteps stopped suddenly, and he only said: "Mom, what are you doing here?"

Wang Fushun's family bowed and said: "The old lady asked the old slave to see how the young master is doing..."

The latter words suddenly stammered.

Gu Huaixiu didn't like this old lady very much. As she walked, she looked at the flowers, and there were some maids and maidservants who didn't look familiar around her, and there seemed to be a few women dressed as aunts in front of her.

Gu Huaishu stopped moving after walking around, and said: "Fat brother is very good, you just need to tell the old lady."

In fact, the old lady didn't have to worry about the matter of the fat brother, she just thought of the way Wu shi held the child and refused to let go during the day, maybe later people would say that she was hard-hearted, after all, she was still a grandparent.

Gu Huaishu hasn't figured out how to deal with Mrs. Wu yet, so she just put it in the cold, but she keeps posting it herself.

To be honest, Mrs. Wu is much better now, but Gu Huaixiu always felt that it was not so easy.

She didn't dare to relax her vigilance, and only perfunctory to Wang Fushun's family.

Wang Fushun's family seemed to know that Gu Huaixiu had a knot in his heart, and he was also a little embarrassed, right?Looking at Gu Huaishu's cold gaze, he still bite the bullet and said: "Second Young Mistress, I see that the old lady really likes Fat Brother..."

Gu Huaishu still likes Fat Guy. She hugged him tightly and hugged him in her arms. She only watched the boy's eyebrows and eyes gradually opened, and she slid her fingertips lightly, but said casually: "Don't worry, she likes it... ...Forget it, you go back first and talk about it later, it's not now that you want to take the child to see her. "

She had issued an order to evict the guest, and Wang Fushun's family didn't dare to stay any longer, so they paused for a while, still afraid that Gu Huaishou would directly evict her without giving her face, so they simply left.

Appreciate a flower well, make a fuss like nothing.

Gu Huaishu's mood was ruined, and now he only touched his forehead to the fat man's, his lips curled up: "Little fat man, ignore them, let's go and see the flowers..."

Although it still looks ugly, the eyes are getting more and more elegant.

Gu Huaishu was about to turn his head and tell Qing Dai that her fat brother might be a model of how to break out of a cocoon and become a butterfly, but someone next to him said "so ugly".

The footsteps stopped suddenly, Gu Huaishu turned his head, and saw two women standing under the peach blossom tree over there, both of them were in bright red shirts, not very solemn.

Qing Dai also frowned, "Your maid asked them to come?"

Gu Huaixiu pulled the corners of his lips and smiled, nodded, and hugged Fat Brother with some difficulty, "Er Fatty, you can add new content to your notes today, come on, give mother a smile..."

The fat guy looked at Gu Huaixiu in a daze, and saw two women walking over there, wearing very bright clothes, which immediately caught his attention.

It's a pity that Gu Huaishu didn't let him see, turned his little head around, and asked, "Which room is it in?"

The two women looked at each other, not knowing what was going on, so they could only bow to Gu Huaishu: "The concubines are in the uncle's room..."

It was the concubines that the Wu family gave to Zhang Tingzan in the early years, but Zhang Tingzan doesn't pay much attention to them now.

Fortunately, there are still rules in the mansion, so they won't be left idle all day long, and Mrs. Chen has a good temper, so she doesn't make things difficult for them, so they just idle around in the mansion.

Originally, I was looking at the peaceful scenery today, and went out to enjoy the flowers, who would have expected to meet Gu Huaishu?
They also saw the fat boy when he was a hundred days old, and only heard the second young lady laughing and telling the second master that the child was ugly. Today, seeing that the child was very fat, they didn't take it seriously and said "really ugly".

But now...

I got hot.

Gu Huaixiu squinted and smiled: "Who said it was ugly just now?"

The woman standing on the left knelt down, "Second Young Madam, forgive me, the concubine made a slip of the tongue..."

"Since you made a slip of the tongue, just slap your mouth, and it will kill you, so why forgive?"

Gu Huaishu's voice was as good as the spring in March, he only made his voice longer, then turned around and walked forward with Fat Brother in his arms, pointing to the flowers in the garden and telling him, what kind of flower is this, what kind of flower is that ...

Behind her, a servant girl went up to hold down the aunt, and began to slap her mouth.

The loud ear scraping sound, accompanied by the voice of Gu Huaixiu coaxing the child away, there are two worlds in this garden.

The aunt's face was swollen, and she was out of breath from crying.

Qing Dai stood where she was, and sighed: "I don't know how such a stupid person can serve the uncle...won't you hurry up?"

The terrified aunt next to her got up quickly, dragged the beaten one away, and went all the way back to the big room, but was stopped by Ting Lan, the maid next to Mrs. Chen.

"What's wrong with the two aunts?"

The one who was beaten cried out and howled, and knelt down in front of the door: "The eldest young mistress is the master of the concubine..."

Inside, Mrs. Chen was talking to Shuhui, but now she frowned when she heard the voice, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Ting Lan came in and said, "The two aunts were beaten."

"... Hit?" Chen frowned, "Tell them to come in and answer."

"Yes."

At this moment, two aunts walked in, and one of them was covered in injuries and swelling.

Mrs. Chen frowned, fearing that she might have frightened the child, she quickly asked her mother-in-law to take Sister Hui down, and then asked, "Who beat you?"

"It's the Second Young Mistress, the concubine was just discussing something nearby, but she was called out by the Second Young Mistress, and she slapped the concubine more than a dozen times without explaining anything. Even if the concubine did something wrong, it's not the second room's turn to clean it up, right? The concubine has served the uncle at any rate..."

The concubine was aggrieved.

When Chen heard this, she almost laughed angrily. The Second Young Mistress said that the child was ugly from time to time, but did anyone really believe it?Dare to conform to Gu Huaixiu?
If you don't want to kill yourself, you can't blame others.

Thinking about these two concubines, they have already offended Gu Huaishu.

Mrs. Chen didn't bother to talk to them, and even ordered: "Ting Lan, arrange to send the two aunts away today."

When the two aunts heard this, they were so frightened that their three souls went out of their minds: "Eldest young mistress! What do you mean, eldest young mistress! What did the concubines do wrong? Are you still afraid that the second young mistress will fail?!"

"Second young lady is reasonable. You talk to her well, and she talks to you well. Is there anything to be afraid of?"

Chen just shook her head, feeling that these two people were so stupid.

"I can only blame you for committing a big taboo... I can't blame the Second Young Mistress for teaching you, but you are too stupid. Just look, the Second Young Mistress said that the fat guy is ugly, but was there anything that she really disliked? Even if it's an ugly monster, it's still the treasure that Second Young Mistress holds in her palm, just you two lowly maidservants..."

I really can't even think of reprimanding.

"Think about it for yourself, not even the maid of the second room has ever said an ugly word, and the words of the second young lady can be taken seriously... The two of you have been in the house for nothing these years... Let's go, Spare your lives, anyway, you can live in Zhuangzi the same way."

Chen waved his hand and asked someone to pull the two of them out.

Ting Lan also sighed, seeing that the two aunts refused to leave, crying and grabbing the steps, like a drowning person grabbing driftwood, and stepped on one aunt's hand when she went up, making her let go.

The swollen-faced aunt burst into tears, extremely miserable: "The concubine refuses to accept! Why can't she say it, but the concubine can't say it! Didn't the second young lady say it herself?!"

Ting Lan pressed her forehead, and said amusedly: "Who doesn't know that the second young lady is famous for being duplicity? The second master didn't say anything, and didn't even look at what you are! How dare you talk about the fat man!"

She clapped her hands, asked the servant to gag the two, and pulled them down.

As for Gu Huaixiu's side, after returning to the house, he put the child on the crib, and then opened the letter.

With a smile on her face, she looked at the sleeping fat guy, and after thinking about it, she decided to remember this glorious day for this kid.

On March [-]st, I went to the garden with Er Fatty in my arms. When I met two concubines who accused the dog of being ugly, they were ordered to slap ten times from left to right as punishment.Just use today as a warning to my son: I am born to be useful, and I am born fat and then thin.Break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly to see the future, and the cicada buries in the ground for a summer to know.

Gu Huaixiu's handwriting was still crooked. After she finished writing, she put down the pen and kissed Fat Brother on the cheek, "I hope you are safe..."

When she came back in the evening, Zhang Tingyu went to help Gu Huaishu copy her adoptive letter as usual, and when she saw the last paragraph, she couldn't help smiling.

"It's enough for you to be a magic stick. You already know that your son will be handsome in the future... How can our child be ugly?"

"Bah! Your son is ugly now!"

Gu Huaishu lay on the bed with the fat guy, and yawned, "The longer the better in the future, it doesn't matter, now it will be ugly. The uglier the better... I have a note, waiting for him When he went out to deceive the little girl with a monstrous face, I threw this letter on his face."

Zhang Tingyu copied it while laughing: "Then tell him, don't look at you like a beautiful tree today, it's because of your mother and me, it's not because your parents are good-looking, how can you break out of the cocoon and become a butterfly today..."

His tone was really teasing, Gu Huaishu took out the pillow under his head and threw him, "After copying, hurry up and go to sleep, there's a lot of nonsense..."
