Aristocratic Concubine

Chapter 478 The Grand Finale (7)
"That child is also pitiful. Her father and elder brother fled and left her in the enemy country. Alas, she is now in the palace. I don't know which palace she is locked in. I heard that the emperor took her as a hostage. Now everyone Zhou and Beirong are friends, and I don't know if the emperor will let the child go." Master Gu sighed.

Wanqing frowned when she heard that, remembering the first time she went to Shouchangbo's mansion, Shouchangbo still loved Yingjie very much, and Murong Lingyun also loved this sister very much. Way to take Yingjie with you, maybe you also think that the emperor is not that kind of cruel person who will not hurt innocent people.

Wanqing was lowering her head in deep thought when an excited shout sounded outside: "Sister, sister, where are you?"

Wanqing's eyes became hot when she heard that, she turned around and went out to meet her. Cunxiao, who was about to be shoulder-to-shoulder outside, rushed over the moment she saw her, hugged her tightly, and buried her head in her arms , Choked up: "Sister, you are finally back, finally back."

Wanqing felt sour and guilty for a while. In the past six months, Cunxiao should be worried to death. In this world, if anyone has the strongest affection with her, and what she cares about and values ​​the most is Cunxiao. Looking at the little face Still childish, but with a mature Cunxiao who is usually older than her age, Wanqing held her younger brother's face, tears filled her eyes, and there was a kind of joy of rebirth in her heart. If she hadn't insisted on making peace with the Beirong royal family, she would do her best to help He developed the economy and fled back after listening to Shangguan Yeli's adventure. These relatives of his family were probably killed by him a long time ago.

"You're a little man, and you're still crying, are you ashamed?" Wanqing smiled with tears in her eyes.

Cunxiao was slightly ashamed, with snot and tears on his little face, but his eyes were bright: "He's only nine years old."

It is rare for her younger brother to act like a baby in front of her, Wanqing patted Cunxiao's face with a smile and said: "Who said last year that he wanted to be the youngest scholar in Dazhou? ?”

Cunxiao's proud face, even the Elder Gu behind him nodded with his beard, with a proud face, Wanqing raised her head in surprise: "Father, could it be that he was really selected as a scholar?"

With a look of anger on Cunxiao's face, he pulled Wanqing's clothes and said, "Sister, why don't you believe me? I'm the youngest scholar in the Great Zhou Dynasty? In the whole world, it's been a few years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I'm an eight-year-old scholar." It's just me."

While Wanqing was happy, she knocked a chestnut on Cunxiao's head, which made Cunxiao stunned: "Stinky boy, don't you know that being humble makes people progress, and pride makes people lag behind? But if you are a scholar, let's see if you can do it." Yes, I almost don't know what is the number of days, and what is your number."

"I've never heard of this, but I do understand the meaning, sister, which sage said it, this is too plain." Cunxiao asked, stroking his beaten head.

This is what Daddy Mao said, even if I told you, you wouldn’t recognize it, Wan Qing looked down at Cun Xiao’s plain clothes, and his small face was a lot thinner, and his heart felt a little sour, looking back at his father, he was also very shabby, Cun Xiao Seeing that she looked unhappy, she hurriedly explained: "Sister, the eldest brother and the second sister have been imprisoned, and the fourth sister is also in the Taimiao. In order to manage the government, the family used up a lot of money and sold a lot of things. , don't blame daddy, it's not that daddy treats me badly, it's really..."

Wanqing patted Cunxiao's head, comforting her in her heart, as long as it wasn't Lin who was abusing Cunxiao again, then she remembered that before she left, she had given Cunxiao 1000 taels of silver for a year, if she spent it carefully , he should be living well, why...

Cunxiao seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, his little face blushed, and he knelt down uncomfortably in front of Mr. Gu, and took out a small stack of bank notes from his pocket: "Daddy, this is the banknote that my sister left earlier. For me, my son didn't give it all to you, I really... want to keep it as a thought, and I don't know if my sister can come back..."

Wanqing snatched the bank note in his hand and took a look. It was just a few tens of taels of small bills, which added up to less than a hundred taels, but Mr. Gu's eyes were red, and he helped his son up and said: "Fool, this money is worthless." It was originally left for you by your elder sister, and you used a lot of it secretly, don’t you know that you are a father? Some time ago, your little nephew fell ill, and you paid for all the money for the medicine. It's also you who tried to do it, father is incompetent, failed to let you live a good life, and made you worry..."

Wanqing's eyes on Cunxiao became softer and softer, this child is worthy of her worrying about him, he is pure-hearted and filial, with great kindness.

"Good Cunxiao, my sister will give you another 2000 taels of silver. You study hard, and don't lose yourself in the future." Wanqing took another 2000 taels of silver and handed it to Cunxiao.

Cunxiao didn't refuse, and answered quickly, with a sly look in his big black eyes: "I heard that my sister is now the princess of Beirong. From now on, our family's life will be better again."

Elder Gu laughed heartily when he heard it, his laughter was hearty and hearty. The return of his daughter finally opened his heart that had been depressed for half a year.

Grandma Gu waited outside for a long time, and when she heard the laughter in the room, her mood relaxed a lot. It seems that Grandma Sangu must have answered a lot of the master's words. The married third aunt was very polite. She didn't stand with her mother-in-law at the beginning, and had trouble with the third aunt. Now, only the third aunt is the Gu family's reliance. Even if she was kidnapped to the enemy country, the third aunt not only kept her With her own life, people from the enemy country can even make her a princess, and even make two countries that are incompatible with each other become neighbors. Such a woman is really the pride of women.

Thinking of the husband in the prison, Grandma Gu's eyes darkened slightly, and she was thinking about something when her housekeeper, Mrs. Hua, came over with her one-year-old son in her arms. After saluting her, she said: " Madam asked the servants to come and ask Grandma if Sangu would like to have dinner at home?"

Grandma Gu frowned and said, "How does Madam know that Grandma Sangu is back?"

Mrs. Hua said: "Everyone in the house knows about it, Madam can't hide it, if the third aunt keeps food, the slaves have to get someone to prepare it. There are not many dishes in the kitchen..."

Hua Pozi was kindly reminding her that Grandma Gu took her son who was clapping her little hands in Hua Pozi's arms, hugged her and said, "Of course the rice should be kept, I still have 50 taels in the box." Take all the money and buy some good ingredients and come back, don’t offend the third aunt.”
