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

Chapter 31 Regret Medicine

After matching the horoscope, Zhang and Gu's family changed the genealogy spectrum, set an auspicious date, and started to arrange the follow-up matters.

The date was set on October [-], about a month after Sun Lianqiao married into Gu's residence.

Gu Hanchuan and Sun Lianqiao's day was on the third day of September, and it was also a good day.

There were two happy events in Gu's mansion, everyone was preparing for it, and the maids inside and out were all beaming.

Gu Huaixiu just felt that the days were not much different from before. It was still the same as before. Every day when the sun rose, he would think about what to eat for the next meal. Before he knew it, Xiao Shifang's recipes became much richer. .

The hot summer in the capital is extremely long, and Gu Huaixiu's big plantain fan is finally ready, and they are hidden in the study to fan.

The wind from the small round fan is too weak to even remove sweat.

After going out to admire the lotus a few times and swimming in the lake a few times, Gu Huaishu became lazy and ignored anyone who invited her.

Gu Hanchuan was about to marry a wife, and he gradually settled down.

Gu Huaixiu had said earlier that after Gu Yaofang left, this brother wilted like an eggplant beaten by Shuang.Now the Gu family is better than ever. The second elder brother Gu Hanchuan is studying hard. elder brother……

Cough, these are all Gu Huaixiu's conjectures.

She is the water that the daughter who is going to marry will throw out, something in the house?More is just to ask Qing Dai to keep an eye on it, as long as there are no major mistakes.

"Miss, my aunt was always going out a while ago, but now she is safe. I don't know what she planned..."

Qing Dai fanned Gu Huaixiu vigorously, let alone a big fan.

Gu Huaixiu turned to look at Qing Dai, and laughed out loud, looking at Qing Dai's appearance, she looked like an iron fan princess holding a plantain fan.

She laughed so hard that Qingdai was puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, "Why do you..."

"It's nothing, cough, cough..."

Gu Huaixiu reached out and pressed the corner of her lips, keeping a relatively serious expression, and then said: "Whether she likes it or not, Miss Sun's family will be the rightful head of the house in the future, and her name is not right. No matter what, it's never her turn. She's smart, and she'll get the accounts done as soon as possible, maybe there's still a bowl of food for her in this mansion. If you're confused, you can't blame others."

The last time we went to Chongxiao Temple together to meet Miss Sun's family, Gu Huaishu had mentioned something to Gu Jiao when he came back, and he only hoped that Gu Jiao had already settled the matter, so don't be confused.

At any rate, Sun Lianqiao is also the daughter of the history of the Supreme Hospital, and the medical officer is also an official.

Generally, when girls leave the court, they have to learn to manage accounts and housekeepers. Miss Sun's family is the jewel in Sun Zhiding's palm.

Originally, Gu Huaishu's time to leave the cabinet was approaching, so he should learn how to manage the housekeeper.But it's not that Gu Huaixiu can't do it, not to mention that she wants to give her father's sister a face by asking her to smooth out the account, so she simply let go, saying she was being lazy, and going after the summer There is also time to learn.

Originally, Qing Dai didn't understand, and felt that Gu Huaishu was giving up the opportunity.But Gu Huaixiu said that Gu Zhenguan's ability to support Gu Jiao for so many years proved that he is a person who misses family and affection very much, so it is better to save some affection for Gu Jiao and let him survive.

What's more, Gu Jiao also?Mostly, he stepped on the low and held the high, and he didn't do anything to hinder Gu Huaishu. Gu Huaishu loosened his fingers and gave her a way out.

"Forget it, let's go, I want to drink something today... I'll find Xiao Shifang to do it."

Gu Huaishu jumped up from the chair, stretched his waist, pulled the banana fan from Qing Dai's hand, and took her out together.

It was only a few days since Sun Lianqiao entered the house, and the interior and exterior of the mansion began to be decorated and decorated with lights and festoons.

Old Xu was walking around, sweating profusely.

Gu Huaishu walked through the courtyard and went all the way to the kitchen to find Xiao Shifang.

Xiao Shifang was chopping vegetables today, right by the window, with two sharp kitchen knives flipping left and right in his hands, he went down and sliced ​​two pieces of lotus root into thin slices.

"Little Stone Fang!"

A sudden cry made Xiao Shifang's hand tremble, and he almost cut his own hand, so he let out a cry of fright, and then caught the knife. "Crying for my life! Alas, Miss Qingdai, Zensheng is you again?"

Xiao Shifang rolled his eyes, and chopped the kitchen knife into the chopping board, aggressively.

Qingdai stuck out her tongue, "Bah! You think I'm looking for you for nothing, but our lady is looking for you!"

After finishing speaking, she stepped aside, revealing Gu Huaishu who had just walked over and stood behind.

Xiao Shifang was startled, then the corner of his mouth twitched: "What do you want to eat..."

"Ah, look, Xiao Shifang has really grown up lately, and I don't even want to see him anymore. I just ate a lotus root powder sugar cake, made a lotus root and lily soup, and ate crispy and spicy chicken tenders. Did you mix it with milk? Didn’t you just eat winter melon candy and pumpkin pie yesterday...I just want to eat today..."

Gu Huaishu looked at Xiao Shifang's darker and darker face, covered his lips with his hand, and coughed, as if he felt that he was exaggerating a bit.

She felt that she was getting fatter and fatter recently, but she couldn't help her hunger.

Xiaoshi was expressionless, although his face was still green, but his stature had been pulled up, he was tall and thin.

He glanced at Gu Huaixiu: "Shi Fang looked through the medical books this morning, and said that eating too much sweet food will cause bad teeth, and it's not good for the body, and it's easy to gain weight. The girl is a beauty lover, it shouldn't be like this."

Gu Huaishu: "..."

Are you miss or am I miss?

Who is teaching whom?

Gu Huaixiu almost fainted, "I thought of a new dish today, didn't I think of you all the time? Think about it, you like cooking, and I come to you when I have a new idea, isn't it the last dish?" Is it suitable?"

"Oh, what's new?"

Xiao Shifang asked nonchalantly.

Gu Huaixiu smiled and said, "Cabbage in boiling water."

……

Xiao Shifang's life was spent under the pressure of Gu Huaixiu.

Although every time after cooking a dish for her, Xiao Shifang held his kitchen knife and thought that next time he must not be tempted by her sweet words to cook.

but……

Every time Gu Huaishou spits out a name of a dish he has never heard of before, he feels itchy again, and it feels uncomfortable not to continue listening.

Therefore, the tragic little stone square repeats such a tragedy.

Fighting, rejecting, seducing, being tempted, surrendering, cooking, regretting...

One at a time, and the cycle repeats.

After listening to the recipe of boiled cabbage, Xiao Shifang finally wanted to give Gu Huaishu a title - Diao Zui God of Cookery.

Xiao Shifang can eat so much cabbage with so much attention... nothing left but admiration.

There were grumbles about the little stone cubes, and there were plenty of them in the kitchen.

As for Gu Huaixiu, there is something about Xiao Shifang, but there is also one thing.

She stood outside the window, looked at Xiao Shifang, and suddenly said: "Without you, I definitely won't be able to eat. I will tell my father in a while, let you marry me as a dowry."

With a sound of "dong", the kitchen knife cut to the side of the chopping board, and Xiao Shifang looked at his fingers with lingering fear.

Raising his eyes, he looked at Gu Huaisu, "I, I, I..."

Gu Huaishu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "When my dowry goes to the Zhang family, you just go with it."

One o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock...

Xiao Shifang's face gradually darkened: "Girl..."

Gu Huaishu coughed twice, and slowly backed away from the window. She waved her hand: "It's up to you to boil the cabbage at night. I'll go back with Qingdai. If you have anything to do, go directly to Mr. Xu or Mr. Xu!"

After finishing speaking, Gu Huaishu took Qing Dai and ran away quickly.

Xiao Shifang thought that Gu Huaishu was joking.

But on October [-]th, when he arrived at Zhang's mansion together with the dowries, Xiaoshi realized that the girl's jokes were really terrible.

After Gu Huaishu finished teasing Xiao Shifang, his mood improved a lot, and he continued to read after returning home.

It hadn't been long since Sun Lianqiao entered the house, and the dowry was only carried in yesterday, so it was quite generous.

However, today the front of the Gu mansion is very lively.

In the morning came the dowry from the Sun Mansion, and in the afternoon the dowry from the Zhang Mansion, so many people stopped in front of the door for a while.

Among them, Zhang's dowry was the most eye-catching, stretching out half a street, and it took half an hour to carry the dowry into the door.

After being busy for a while, the front yard handed over these things.

The entire Gu family's house was almost covered with things that came in twice in the morning and afternoon, and the maids looked around excitedly.

Gu Huaishu was eating melon seeds in the room, and while she was eating, she suddenly asked Qing Dai: "Who is here to give the betrothal gift?"

"It's the eldest son of the Zhang family, and an elder in charge of the Zhang family." Qing Dai was puzzled, "What's wrong?"

Gu Huaishu shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with it."

Qing Dai didn't know what her young lady was thinking, she just took that big plantain fan to fan the young lady three times, and herself twice, but the master and the servant became the only ones in the whole house except Aunt Liu and Aunt Liu. Besides the four young masters, he is the most idle person.

In the front yard, Zhang Tingzan and his uncle dealt with the matter here, and rode away by himself.

He will be on duty at Zhan Shifu in the afternoon, taking care of the affairs of the Prince's East Palace, which is not so easy.

But when I went today, I accidentally bumped into something I shouldn't have bumped into.

A few months ago in Yuqing Palace, a court lady, Lin Jiashi, twisted her foot, and after a few days of recuperation, she finally came out. It was a stroke of luck, and she was accepted by the prince. Although she was still a palace lady, she was already serving in the house.

Isn't this Lin Jiashi here today the Gu Yaofang, the eldest lady of the Gu family?
It was not easy for her either. She was tortured and interrogated by the servants of Prince Yuqing Palace before, and she almost lost half her life, but she insisted that she had never taken anything, and even begged bitterly, saying that the finger was hidden next to her body. No one has moved.

The prince didn't believe it at first, but as time went by, he heard a lot, and knew that Gu Yaofang had always admired him, and it was quite pitiful to see her pear blossoms with rain.This carelessness made Yinreng remember the old friendship and asked someone to let her go back to recuperate.

Gu Yaofang turned into Lin Jia's family in a flash, but the daughter of Lin Heng, the head of the house of internal affairs, who entered the palace suddenly jumped up several steps.

It wasn't until she was lying on the prince's bed again that she understood what Gu Zhenguan meant that day when she said "I prefer you for the last time".

She slightly bent the corners of her lips and clenched the wrench in her hand, which was now given to her by the prince.

"Where's the prince?"

A beautiful shadow suddenly appeared in front of the door, accompanied by a clear and beautiful voice, side Fujin Li Jiashi came in holding her big belly.

She has been pregnant for more than six months, and she is the first one in the prince's backyard to conceive, and she is very doted on.

Gu Yaofang is in the resting room of the palace ladies, where can there be traces of the prince?

She immediately knew that it was not good, that Li Jiashi was here to deal with her.

Li Jiashi is wearing heavy makeup today, her whole body is gorgeous and compelling, exuding a sense of coldness.

She walked in with a sneer, looked at Gu Yaofang's face that was as weak as a small white flower, "Oh, it seems that the prince is not here, I thought you were capable..."

Gu Yaofang immediately lowered her head and said tremblingly, "Slave—ah!"

"Snapped!"

A slap landed on her face, Li Jiashi slapped her hard, seeing that half of her face was swollen, she was satisfied and stopped.

"Although the rules in this palace are not to slap a maid in the face, why is your face so charming? I heard that the prince recently hired you? Heh... I will warn you. It's just a court lady. Qiaoyun, give her a few more slaps, and give her good medicine later, don't let people see that we have treated her harshly."

That Qiaoyun was Li Jiashi's confidant, and his attack was so vicious, after a few slaps, Gu Yaofang's entire face could hardly be seen as it was.

Only then did Li Jia feel relieved, she was pregnant, the crown prince hadn't married yet, and his succession to Fu Jin hadn't been decided yet, she was the biggest in the entire Yuqing Palace, but how long has this court lady dominated the crown prince?She had never been so cowardly, relying on her big belly, she blatantly came to find fault.

When Qiaoyun finished her work, Li Jiashi asked someone to hold Gu Yaofang down and give her medicine.

This medicine is still a good medicine, and it won't be obvious after a long time of storage.

She just wanted to torment Gu Yaofang like this, so that this dog slave can see clearly who is the master of Yuqing Palace.

There was only a road between the maid's residence and the corridor outside. Li Jiashi was just teaching a court lady, and did not avoid people inside and out. Zhang Tingzan happened to see such a scene as he passed by from the outside.

Who is it that is not Gu Yaofang who is kneeling and crying inside?

In the early years, this Miss Yaofang was very talented and famous. When she came to the capital occasionally, she often went to various poetry gatherings. Zhang Tingzan also recognized her somewhat.

Seeing him now, he just shook his head, turned around and left.

Inside, Gu Yaofang gritted her teeth with hatred, her face was burning with pain, but none of this could compare to the hatred in her heart.

Such humiliation would come from time to time, and she would continue to endure it.

Until, boil your head out.

Whether she flies up a branch and turns into a phoenix, from then on she will be prosperous and rich, or whether she will never recover, all depends on whether she can bear it.

When Gu Huaishu was splashed with dirty water by her, she endured it for so many years, and finally waited until she committed suicide and let Gu Zhenguan adopt her, why couldn't she be more tolerant than Gu Huaishu?

endure.

If you can't bear it, you have to bear it.

There is no medicine for regret in the world, she can only swallow all her tears, chew bitterness, but still tell others that she finds it very sweet.

A palace official from somewhere outside passed by, congratulating Zhang Tingzan: "I heard that the second son is going to marry a girl from the Gu family. The eldest son remembers to send an invitation to our colleagues when the time comes."

As the young master of Zhan Shifu, Zhang Tingzan is also quite busy with his affairs. As he walked away, he smiled and said, "I must... Thank you for your good words... I thank you on behalf of my second brother, thank you, thank you... ..."

Miss Gu?

Take care of your sleeves...

She is going to marry the second son of the Zhang family whom she looks down upon?
Gu Yaofang knelt in the room, and slowly got up, her knees were covered with dust, her face, which was still somewhat weak, suddenly became slightly distorted.

The second son of the Zhang family should have married me...

Ha, what a scheming and cunning Gu Huaishu!
After all, she underestimated her third sister!

No hurry, no hurry.

As time goes by, it depends on who is more tolerant.

Just waiting for her to come out one day, she can easily hold Gu Huaixiu.She would like to see what kind of expression her third sister had at that time!
endure.

Only.
