pampering wife

Chapter 54

After returning to Liufangtang, she briefly talked to Mrs. Xu, and Qingmei changed into another attire, the gorgeous and complicated purple gold dress, and another set of skirts that were not too eye-catching. First.The golden hairpin with emerald wrapped around it was also removed, and only a delicate palace flower was pinned in the black silk.

Luzhu didn't quite understand her thoughts, said: "Miss is going out today, why did you choose plain clothes instead?"

"Do you want me to wear an eye-catching gorgeous dress, and then go to the store to choose a wooden spoon for a wine jar?" Qing Mei smiled.If that's the case, with Gu Changqing by his side, I'm afraid there will be interesting stories about Miss Gu's family in Beijing in two days. Mrs. Gu will never allow such things to happen.

After thinking about it, she felt that it was not enough, so she asked Luzhu to find a veiled hat from Mrs. Gu to wear, and then went to the museum.Seeing this, Gu Changqing decided that it would be inconvenient for Lu Zhu to follow her on the sidewalk, so he told her to go back.

A spacious carriage was prepared outside the mansion. Gu Changqing had already made a marriage agreement, and the two were brother and sister with a six-year difference, so it would not be too outrageous to ride in the same carriage.But obviously it would be more convenient to have two cars, but Mrs. Gu asked them to take the same car...Qing Mei suddenly smiled.

It turned out that Mrs. Gu asked Gu Changqing to accompany her today because of this calculation.

She leaned against the carriage and sat down. Gu Chang asked her how she met Princess Yongle before when she had nothing to do. Qingmei told the truth, and Gu Changqing smiled and said, "Your Highness the Third Highness is very powerful. With Princess Yongle here, she probably doesn't I will stop you again."

Hearing such a strange tone, Qingmei couldn't help being startled, she didn't expect the gap between his mother and child to be so deep.She hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Second brother, Qingmei dares to ask, was the argument with your eldest sister that day about my business?"

Gu Changqing didn't expect her to mention this suddenly, and frowned, "How do you talk about this?"

"Second brother and aunt's situation makes Qingmei feel very uneasy." She lowered her head and twisted the soft belt around her waist with her fingers, feeling a little guilty and uneasy in her heart.

The carriage was slightly bumped, and Gu Changqing looked at that delicate face with drooping eyes and tight lips, showing a little disappointment.He was silent for a long time, and asked, "Don't you mind?"

"Why do you mind?" Qingmei raised her face, her voice was rare and a little confused, "It's human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, not to mention that my uncle is in a high position, and my second brother has a bright future. It's not just you. Therefore, Qingmei is more willing to do this in her heart."

"I know you like freedom, those agreements may be a burden to you." Gu Changqing stared into her clear eyes, and said seriously: "But, what if they not only regret the engagement, but also want to take advantage of your marriage?"

Panic suddenly flashed across those clear eyes, as if a long-standing guess had been confirmed, but also seemed a little surprised, all the subtle changes in expression were caught in Gu Changqing's eyes.Sure enough, the reaction was the same as he imagined, Gu Changqing smiled bitterly in his heart, and continued to say seriously: "No matter what you choose, I will help you."

Qing Mei was very surprised, and blurted out, "Why?"

"After the loyal minister and brave general, my cousin should not be treated like this."

The firm voice fell into her ears, and then Qingmei remembered his identity - the young minister of Dali Temple known for his justice and strictness.The He family dominated the court and created so many unjust, false and wrong cases, how could Gu Changqing not know the tricks in the unjust cases back then?Even if he is powerless to contend, at least he still has integrity.

Suddenly there was an inexplicable warmth in her heart, and she asked nervously: "Second brother, will my father's matter turn around?"
