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

Chapter 52
A few months ago, the fourth elder brother called her "a street scumbag" and that's all. Now that Lord Kangxi came to the mansion for a while, eating the food made by her cook, he even gave her the title of a street street scumbag , Gu Huaixiu turned over and got up in the morning and felt unhappy: "If I don't make trouble for others, wouldn't my name be worthy of the name?"

Zhang Tingyu just took his hand out of the copper basin, squeezed the brocade handkerchief to wipe his hand, and when he heard this sentence, he only sighed: "Why are you still thinking about this?"

Can Gu Huaishu not want to?Good comments like "Hui Zhi Lan Xin" were taken back and replaced with "market scumbags", I am afraid that they will become a laughing stock in the near future.

I just hope that the news will be well in the back house, don't spread it far, then it will be Gu Huaishu's bad luck.

She got up, stretched out her hand to let Qingdai dress herself, enjoying the days when she stretched out her hand and opened her mouth with this kind of clothes.

The sorrow is only temporary, and Gu Huaixiu knows that this matter is actually not a big deal, right?It is often used as an after-dinner conversation and said so many times.

It's okay for Gu Huaishu to be more troublesome in the future.

She pressed the center of her brows, and sat down in front of the table after washing, thinking that she had torn face with Mrs. Wu yesterday, that they won't have to get up early in this room from now on, life is really...

Rarely comfortable.

"I, Zhang Tingyu, can eat something that I can't eat even if I want to eat it. I really should be thankful to you..."

On the chopsticks was a piece of rose mincemeat cake, Zhang Tingyu stared at it for a long time, but still took a bite.

Gu Huaixiu told Xiao Shifang last night, but he never expected to be able to eat this morning.

She was quite pleasantly surprised, and sat down by herself, the rice porridge accompanied by pastries was naturally wonderful.

"Yesterday, the Mei Yin Banquet, is it okay for you to go shopping? If you like, you can go to any banquet in the future..." Just don't be bored in the mansion all day, Zhang Tingyu saw that Gu Huaixiu's temper was actually quite open and calm When it is time to be calm, but when it is really necessary to open and close, it is also unambiguous.The important thing is that my daughter-in-law is not unusually courageous.

When he asked about plum banquets, Gu Huaishu gave him a sideways glance: "The cook at Mingzhu's family, who put plum blossoms in the dishes, almost made me vomit. It's also fortunate that you men don't pay much attention to these things, and you won't be able to eat them to death."

"..."

Zhang Tingyu was speechless, thinking of yesterday's plum blossom banquet, he really felt disgusted.

"Plum blossoms have been good since ancient times. How can there be a saying of throwing them in vegetables? Nalan Rong is a refined scholar, but the second young master and young lady are fools."

At least he is not as well-informed as Nalan Rongruo, who thinks he has a taste for being able to do such an unsightly thing.

Gu Huaixiu pursed his lips, "The Plum Yin Banquet is not so important, the important thing is that we met some strange people..."

This time, Gu Huaishu remembered those names.

Nian Gengyao, who shoots parrots in the plum garden, Longkodo, who suddenly became literary and elegant, and Zhou Daoxin, who is weird...

Either he will be famous in the future, or he is already a strange person.

Gu Huaishu sighed, "My eyelids don't twitch anymore. By the way, I have something I want to ask."

But I don't know if Zhang Tingyu is clear, if she asks rashly, will something happen?What's more, these are all things in the back house. I told Zhang Tingyu, he may not know clearly, and he may not intervene, right?

Zhang Tingyu put down the porridge bowl and said, "You ask, how do I know if you don't ask?"

"Is sister-in-law's health not always good?" Gu Huaishu frowned, remembering something Sun Lianqiao said yesterday.

She has some guesses, but she hasn't been able to confirm them yet. Asking Zhang Tingyu now is just to confirm her guesses.

Zhang Tingyu said: "My sister-in-law has been married for several years. I heard that she was born with some insufficiency in her womb, and her body is weak. In the early years, because of family affairs, she accidentally fell when she was going to the temple to burn incense and worship. , but it was a miscarriage. Since then, my body hasn't recuperated much. It's good, it's bad...how did you remember to ask this?"

"It's just that I saw my sister-in-law coughing yesterday and felt that her body was too weak."

After hearing this, Gu Huaixiu casually perfunctory Zhang Tingyu.

Of course she didn't tell the truth, but Zhang Tingyu just let it go and said: "The maids around me and Ade are all good at seeing and hearing, if you have any questions, you can ask them. You can decide for yourself ..."

Whether the people below are trustworthy, and to what extent they can be trusted, I dare not say.

Gu Huaishu understood the meaning of Zhang Tingyu's last sentence, she nodded, "I'll save it."

After eating porridge, Gu Huaishu handed Zhang Tingyu a cloak, and it was snowing outside again, so she ordered Ade to get an umbrella. She stood at the door of the house and watched Zhang Tingyu go around the garden covered with snow in front of her with an umbrella. Slowly away, and then turned around.

The maids around her are all newcomers, even if Qing Dai is powerful, she may not be able to hear too much news.

"Right now, Second Master's servant is called Thrush, call me over and talk for a while."

Gu Huaishu rubbed his neck, then sat on the kang, and put the black and white chess boxes on his right hand.

Yesterday I even forgot to ask Zhang Tingyu to make two more moves, but I can slowly figure out the previous ones by myself.

While she was playing chess, she waited, and after a while, Duofu called Huamei in.

This one looks much more pleasing to the eye than the original Xinrui, but the most important thing is that it doesn't seem to have any ambitions.

As soon as the young mistress got started, the servant girl next to the second master suffered a disaster. Anyone would have to think: such a second young mistress is a formidable means.

With Xinrui's lessons learned from the past, and Huanhua who was beaten and disabled, Huamei was naturally cautious and did not dare to overstep.

Besides, Zhang Tingyu's temperament is relatively deep, not easy to ponder, and the servants and maids below can't figure it out, and dare not randomly cast likings.

Thrush came to take care of her a while ago, and she was always worried that Gu Huaishu would find her, but after waiting for a while without a sound, she thought that the second young lady didn't care about her, but she didn't expect that the second young lady would come to call after she just cleaned up the study today.

When Huamei came in, Gu Huaishu was still thinking about the chess game.

She didn't raise her eyes: "Stand up and answer, and the rest of you should step back."

"Yes."

Everyone responded, and at the same time, Huamei took two steps forward, bowing to Gu Huaishu: "My servant, Huamei, I have seen Second Young Mistress."

"You don't need to be too polite. You are serving the second master. I heard that you are quite nervous recently. I think you are better than that Xinrui, so I want to chat with you casually."

"Pa-ta", the chess pieces landed on the chessboard with a crisp sound.

Gu Huaishu said: "Is there any interesting news in the mansion recently?"

"There are not many anecdotes. I only heard that after the Fourth Young Master lifted his foot restraint, he was suddenly forced by the old lady. He gained a lot of weight, but he looked stronger than before he entered..."

What Thrush picked out and said was irrelevant.

Gu Huaishu listened, but didn't pay much attention to it. He knew that this was a casual question, and the question to be asked came later.

"Is there nothing wrong with Eldest Young Mistress?" Gu Huaishu yawned lazily.

Huamei said: "Yesterday, when I came back from Master Mingzhu's residence, the eldest and youngest mistress seemed to have a cold again and felt uncomfortable, so I left the matter to Miss Chang'an. Now Miss Chang'an is really checking the accounts with Wang Fushun's family."

"Fengchi?" Gu Huaixiu frowned, she put away the chess pieces in her hand, and turned her head, "I heard that the young lady's is a congenital deficiency, so her body is not in good shape?"

Before that, Huamei was an ordinary maid in the old lady's yard, and she didn't like it very much.

The second son didn't have a heart core here, and the old lady didn't want to stuff the maid she was hurting into Zhang Tingyu's room, so she casually pointed at the thrush.Gu Huaixiu knew how the thrush got here, and did some research, but he didn't suspect that this one was the old lady's eyeliner.

Chatting now, I can see that Huamei is actually quite distracted by the affairs in this mansion.

"There are congenital deficiencies, but they have been raised in Jiangnan. It's just that I accidentally fell in the temple three years ago, and I had a miscarriage. I guess I didn't take care of it, so I was sick. Although the old lady calls people to rule, she is good and bad."

Gu Huaishu had heard about the incident in the temple, but the details were not very clear: "There was a funeral in the clan, and the coffin stopped in the temple, and this happened?"

"At that time, the servants were also there, and almost all the servants, large and small, had gone. The eldest and young mistress happened to be walking beside the old lady. The old lady was not in a good mood, and accidentally stepped on the ground. Instead, she pushed herself away somehow. Miss Chang'an wanted to reach out to save the eldest young mistress, but she failed, and instead, the two of them rolled down the steps together, and then they became popular..."

Huamei paused, looked at Gu Huaixiu's face, she didn't know if this master was willing to listen to these trivial matters.

Gu Huaishu pointed his finger and said, "Go on."

Then Huamei said again: "It turns out that the youngest mistress is pregnant. It's just because she is not in good health and she didn't pay much attention to it. She didn't know it at all. As a result, when she fell that day, the pulse was weak at first, but this time the fetus was not stable. Once she fell, her pulse would be weak. The fall is gone. The old lady also blamed herself, but the matter is already like this, so I can only ask the doctor to take good care of her..."

"It's a pity..."

Gu Huaishu sighed decently, her eyes flickered slightly, and she casually asked: "Miss Chang'an is safe, but it's a pity that she couldn't save anyone..."

Thinking about it, it's no wonder that Mrs. Chen hasn't been out for many years. Although Mrs. Wu was dissatisfied, she didn't force Zhang Tingzan to divorce his wife.

In the end, the only pregnancy that Mrs. Chen had had was lost because of Mrs. Wu, no matter how thick-skinned she was, she couldn't do it better, right?
It's just this Chang'an...

She looked at Thrush, waiting for Thrush to reply.

Huamei didn't think about it any further, she just thought that Gu Huaixiu asked the question casually, and said, "That's right, Miss Chang'an is the smartest person around the old lady. If there are any big or small things in the mansion on weekdays, don't you go through Wang Fushun first?" At that time, Miss Chang'an blamed herself for not being able to save the young mistress. It happened that the old lady took care of her, but she watched over her every day. Pour the medicine, get up, greet and see the doctor off... But you put your heart into it, even the eldest son persuaded Miss Chang'an not to blame herself like this..."

Gu Huaixiu only felt chills in his heart.

Unlike others, she doesn't think badly at all.

Gu Huaishu is just a villain, a woman, even the future Yongzheng Lord and the current Kangxi Lord who have denounced "the unscrupulous people in the market". She is never afraid to speculate on others with malice, let alone others with malicious intentions. ?

On the surface, Gu Huaixiu looked like he was fine, but his heart had already set off a turbulent sea.

She continued to set the chessboard, and asked other questions casually, so as to cover it up and prevent Thrush from noticing the traces, and finally told Thrush to retreat.

Hua Mei said so many things today, she must know why Gu Huaishu was looking for her.But today Gu Huaixiu asked too many questions, even if she had ten brains, she didn't know what Gu Huaixiu really wanted to know from her.

For a moment, Huamei was even more in awe of Gu Huaishu, and she was silent when she went out.

But as soon as she left, Gu Huaishu gently put the chess pieces into the chess box.

"What a maid in charge of the old lady, what a Chang'an..."

Women's scheming may not be weaker than men's.

Especially when it comes to matters in the back house, the women who are as careful as a needle and as poisonous as a poison are using methods that are ruthless and tricky that men can't imagine.

Gu Huaishou's fingers lightly slid across the dark gray lines on the chessboard, and then clicked on a star.

Transparent pink and white nails, sapphire chessboard, curling smoke...

She closed her eyes, but suddenly hooked her lips.

Wu Shi is eccentric, and Chang'an happens to be her right-hand man.

Can't move a giant, and can't cut off her left and right arms?

Chang'an and Wang Fushun's family are Wu's confidantes.

If he wants to live in this mansion in the future, at least he must reduce the threat from the mother-in-law.

Gu Huaishu is not a good person, she has no sympathy for her sister-in-law Chen, but only for her own consideration.

"Qingdai, go find some good things in the box next to my dowry, let's go and see my sister-in-law."
