The Grand Secretary’s Pampered Wife

Gu Jinyu felt as if she had fallen from heaven to hell overnight. Shock, fear, sadness, and the grievances of losing her parents were intertwined in her heart, like a huge net, trapping her whole body. "Mother wants to find a time to arrange for you to meet the Gu family..."

Yao shi said a lot later, but Gu Jinyu didn't hear a word.

Yao shi gently took her hand and let her rest.

It was night, and Gu Jinyu was lying on the luxurious and soft bed, feeling sleepless for the first time.

A strong wind blew outside the house, blowing the branches and leaves rustling.

Gu Jinyu lifted the quilt and walked down to the ground, opened the door, and a gust of wind rushed towards her face, blowing up her robe and blue silk.

"Oh! Miss, why did you come out? Such a strong wind! Be careful of catching a cold!"

The little girl who was on duty at night hurried forward to help Gu Jinyu into the house.

Gu Jinyu said lightly, "I can't sleep, I want to go out for a walk."

"Ah...but it's so late..." The little maid said, seeing that Gu Jinyu had no plans to go back to the house, she swallowed her words of admonition, "Wait, young lady, this maid will bring you a cape!"

"Yeah." Gu Jinyu nodded.

The little girl found a soft cloak from the closet for Gu Jinyu to put on.

Gu Jinyu looked down at the cape on her body, and suddenly murmured, "Five-flowered horse, a thousand gold furs, Hu'er will come out for wine."

The little maid asked in a daze: "Miss, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly recite poetry? Do you want to write poetry?"

The little girl didn't understand poetry, but Yuru did, but unfortunately Yuru was kicked away by Gu Yan.

Gu Jinyu picked up one corner of the cape and murmured, "Do you know what a thousand gold fur coats are? What I have on me is that some people can't buy a piece of clothing like this for a few lifetimes without eating or drinking."

The little maid understood, she smiled and said: "That's natural, the lady is the daughter of the Hou's mansion! It's not comparable to those commoners outside!"

"What's your name?" Gu Jinyu asked.

"Slave Xiaoli." The little maid replied.

After Yuru left, the servants around Gu Jinyu were selected by Lord Gu Hou, and the most recent ones were a few fresh faces.

"Are you from a nearby village?" Gu Jinyu asked again.

"Yes!" The little maid answered with her eyes wide open.

Gu Jinyu looked her up and down: "You look younger than me, how could your family let you out as a maid?"

The little maid smiled: "Miss is joking, being a maid in the villa is a beautiful job that no one in our village can ask for! There are four sisters in the slave's family, and only the slave's job is the best!"

Gu Jinyu was stunned: "The four sisters... do they all have to do something? No brother at home?"

The little maid nodded and said, "There is an elder brother and a younger brother. The elder brother is getting married. We are earning a dowry. The younger brother will marry in the future, and he will also earn his share. However, if we all marry well, we will accept The dowry money should be enough for them to get married."

There was no complaint in her tone, as if she was born to live for her brother.

Gu Jinyu felt that her three views had been overturned.

She was raised in the Hou Mansion since she was a child. She has three older brothers and one younger brother. Although the younger brother is naughty, he only bullies her and will not oppress her. The three older brothers are all young and promising. I thought about sacrificing my stepsister to pave the way for them.

Gu Jinyu listened to the little girl talking about family affairs again, and found more and more that Gu Houye and Yao Shi were the best parents in the world.

She was reluctant to give up such a good mother and mother, and she could not give up everything in the Hou Mansion.

The next day, Lord Gu and Mrs Yao came to see her, her eyes were swollen like two walnuts.

The little girl explained: "Miss cried all night last night..."

"Go back." Yao Shi said.

"Yes." The little maid withdrew in panic. She was so worried that she didn't take good care of the young lady, which made the young lady sad. She should not be driven out of the villa.

Gu Houye and Yao shi came to the bed, Gu Houye stood beside him, Yao shi sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Mother—" Gu Jinyu threw herself into Yao's arms, and big tears dripped into Yao's chest, "Don't abandon your daughter... My daughter can't bear you... I can't bear my father... My daughter, don't leave you--"

Gu Jinyu was crying like this, and it made Lord Gu's heart cry.

He said distressedly: "Silly child, when did your parents say they don't want you? I have already discussed with your mother. The decision on this matter is up to you. If you want to go back—"

Gu Jinyu interrupted him crying, "If my daughter doesn't go back, she will honor her mother and father for the rest of her life!"

The poor child was an orphan when she returned, and Yao shi couldn't bear it, especially when she learned that Gu Sanlang and his wife had loved Jiaojiao so much, she couldn't treat Jinyu badly.

She stroked Gu Jinyu's face and said, "It's just that, even if you don't look back at home, you should go and put incense sticks on your biological parents."

"Yeah!" Gu Jinyu agreed with tears.

Yao shi nodded in relief, got up and went to see Gu Yan with Lord Gu, Gu Jinyu suddenly grabbed her sleeve and said with choking: "It's my fault, I have occupied the identity of my sister for so many years, and I have also robbed the most beautiful woman in the world. Good mother and father, when my sister comes back, I will definitely take care of my sister, together with what my parents have given me over the years...to my sister together!"

Yao Shi touched her head.

The couple went to see Gu Yan again.

Gu Yan hadn't slept all night, excited like a little bullfrog, croaking all night, Yu Ya'er was about to be annoyed to death by him!

Still the most cute little boy who is quiet and ignores people!

Gu Yan was so happy that he even forgot to give it to his father.

Gu Yan said, "She likes me!"

Yao shi looked at his son dotingly: "Mother knows."

Gu Yan said again: "I like her too!"

Yao Shi smiled and nodded: "Yes."

Gu Yan sat up straight and said, "I'm going to find her!"

Yao shi held her son's hand and said softly, "Give her some time to digest it."

Gu Yan held down the ten thousand little ants in his heart: "Well, okay."

village.

Regarding her life experience, Gu Jiao did not hide it from her family, and Xue Ningxiang was also there.

Because Gu Jiao was injured and sick, the old lady couldn't eat Xiao Liulang's cooking, so she called Xue Ningxiang over to help with cooking.

After she was done, the old lady let her eat with the dog.

The old lady asked about Yao Shi and Gu Houye at the dinner table, and Gu Jiao lightly explained the identities of the two and the fact that she was wronged.

Everyone in the room, except the dog baby, understood that Gu Jiao was actually Gu Jinyu, and Gu Jinyu was actually Gu Jiao, and their identities had changed.

But Gu Jiao's tone was too calm, what she didn't know was that she just said something like eating cabbage tonight.

Xue Ningxiang's jaw dropped in shock. The neighbor she had been with for so long was actually the daughter of the Hou family? Did she eat at the house of the daughter of the Houfu? !

Xue Ningxiang felt that her chopsticks were about to become unsteady.

She looked at the old lady, Xiao Liulang, and Xiao Jingkong, and found that the expressions of these people were very calm except when they heard that Gu Jiao was wrongly held.

Don't you, don't you think that the status of Jiao Niang is very powerful? Her father is Hou Ye!

Old lady: I ​​once beat up the most powerful man in the whole Zhao country, and the mere Hou Ye is a fart!

Xiao Liulang: Marquis of the second rank, he has a title but no real power.

Xiao Qingkong: How amazing can a big bad guy who only bullies women and children? snort!

Xue Ningxiang stared blankly at a table of calm neighbors: "..."

She seems to have discovered something extraordinary?

After eating, Xue Ningxiang asked Gu Jiao to go back to the house to lie down, and she came to clean up.

Gu Jiao was indeed still a little bit helpless, so she didn't show any affection to her, thanked her and went back to the house.

Xue Ningxiang went to wash the dishes, Xiaojingkong went for a walk, and Xiao Liulang boiled the medicine he got from Huichuntang and brought it to Gu Jiao.

The door is open.

He hesitated for a moment, then tapped lightly.

Gu Jiao closed the small medicine box and raised her head: "What's the matter?"

Xiao Liulang's eyes swept across her small medicine box without a trace, and said solemnly: "The medicine is ready, it is the medicine for antipyretic."

"Oh." Gu Jiao pushed the small medicine box aside and reached out to take the medicine from him.

She didn't like to drink bitter medicine, but for the sake of him having boiled it himself, she still drank it without a drop.

She returned the medicine bowl to him: "Thank you."

Xiao Liulang said indifferently: "Hands up."

Gu Jiao looked at his back and smiled, "I mean, you gave me medicine last night."

Xiao Liulang's back stiffened.

When Gu Jiao woke up, she found that her wound had been treated, and the smell of gold sore medicine was all over her body, not to mention that there was a cloth covering the wound on her back.

It would never be an old lady who could do such a meticulous job.

Xiao Liulang didn't turn his head, but he could feel her real gaze falling on his back, and he couldn't help thinking of her naked back and the arc shape pressed under her.

Seeing these things at such a young age is really terrifying.

Xiao Liulang's throat was dry for a while, he calmed down, and said solemnly: "It's nothing."

After all, he took the empty medicine bowl and went out with hands and feet!

Looking at his hurriedly fleeing back, Gu Jiao snorted and muttered, "It seems that I have seen a lot."

Today is the medicine that Xue Ningxiang helped Gu Jiao give.

The door was actually closed, but Xiao Liulang still felt uncomfortable looking at the closed door, so he grabbed the bucket and went to the village to fetch water.

Halfway through Gu Jiao's medicine, someone knocked on the door.

"I'll go and see." Xue Ningxiang put down the golden sore medicine, walked out of Gu Jiao's house, closed the door for Gu Jiao, opened the door of the main room, looked at the elegant middle-aged man in front of her and said, "You are Who?"

Dean Li smiled: "I am the dean of Tianxiang Academy. My surname is Li. Is this Xiao Liulang's home?"

When Xue Ningxiang heard that it was where Xiao Liulang studied, she said politely, "So it's the dean, are you looking for Liulang? He went to fetch water! Eh? You just came from the village entrance, didn't you meet him?"

Dean Li's carriage was parked at the entrance of the village, but people came over. It was a little dark and he didn't care too much.

Xue Ningxiang said, "Wait, I'll find him!"

Dean Li suddenly stopped Xue Ningxiang: "That... Excuse me, is Jiao Niang there?"

Xue Ningxiang tilted her head: "Huh?"

Gu Jiao invited Dean Li into the main room and poured him a bowl of brewed herbal tea.

In the past few days, Xiaojingkong has been a little angry, so Gu Jiao picked some Houttuynia cordata from the mountain that she bought, and boiled water for him to drink.

Dean Li had never drunk such unpleasant tea, but he still bit the bullet and dried a large bowl.

Seeing that he liked it so much, Gu Jiao poured him another big bowl.

Dean Li, who is very kind but difficult to do, said: "..."

After three bowls in a row, Gu Jiao shook the teapot and said, "Huh? No more."

Dean Li, who almost vomited: Thank goodness, there is no more!

Gu Jiao asked politely, "What is the reason for the dean's special visit today?"

"You have visited my mother many times, but I haven't had a good time to thank you." Dean Li said, handing the burden in his hand to Gu Jiao, "The peach tree in the backyard is bearing fruit, and my mother asked me to bring some for you. "

Gu Jiao took the burden: "Thank you old lady."

Dean Li said gently: "My mother is very old, and sometimes she doesn't even know how many sons she has, but she always remembers you."

"How many?" Gu Jiao looked at him strangely.

"Ah." Dean Li quickly talked about the family's affairs, and he smiled embarrassingly, "I have four older brothers above me, and I am the old son of my mother."

No wonder Dean Li is less than forty, but Mrs. Li is already in her old age.

"The brothers are all in the capital and haven't seen each other for many years." More, Dean Li didn't say anything.

Gu Jiao didn't ask again.

Dean Li said: "There is one more thing about Liu Lang today."

Gu Jiao: "Xiang Gong, what happened to him?"

Dean Li: "You must have heard about the fact that he took the Linsheng exam, but there is one more thing I don't know if you know it - he originally had the opportunity to become a junior three yuan, but someone bought the examiner to replace his test paper, causing harm He scored a goalless draw in the third game."

Gu Jiao's eyes turned cold.

This is the ancient college entrance examination, and there are people who cheat.

Dean Li continued: "The re-examination is a very important matter. I don't know the reason why he didn't re-exam. Maybe he didn't want to, or maybe the government came to mediate."

He had a student working in the Gongyuan of Pingcheng Mansion, and he only found out a little bit of news, but he didn't find out everything.

Dean Li asked, "Has he mentioned this to you?"

Gu Jiao shook her head: "No."

"His temperament is not surprising, he hides everything in his heart." Dean Li said, "I asked him afterward, but he refused to say. It's not a big deal if he didn't get into Xiaosanyuan, as long as he was admitted. Once you become a scholar, you will have the opportunity to participate in the rural examination, and that is the real beginning."

Gu Jiao: "But?"

For the sake of the atmosphere, it doesn't make sense to come here.

Dean Li sighed: "He doesn't seem to want to go to the township exam."

After thinking about it, he corrected, "No, when I mentioned the township exam, he didn't have much reaction, and when I mentioned that he was going to Beijing to take the test after the township test, his face sank. I don't know if it's accurate, but he never did. Studying hard seems to be to avoid the step of going to Beijing to take the exam."

Don't want to go to Beijing?

Gu Jiao touched her chin and fell into thought.

Dean Li came to see Gu Jiao to understand the situation, but he didn't get much, and he returned helplessly.

Such a good seedling, he really does not want the other party to be in a small village.

Thinking about something, Dean Li didn't suddenly bump into the dog that rolled out of the yard.

The dog rolled down from the haystack, but it had to stop when it hit someone, otherwise it would have to roll into a puddle.

Dean Li hurriedly picked up the little guy from the ground and patted the dust on him: "Are you okay? Did it hurt you?"

Gouwa looked at him with wide black eyes.

The dog baby has been teething recently, and there are a lot of harassing children. While he is streaming harassing children, he looked at Dean Li in a daze, suddenly opened his small mouth, and called out, "Father!"

Dean Li trembled all over!

Xue Ningxiang, who came out of Gu Jiao's yard, was also shocked!

The dog baby is learning to talk. When he sees a woman, he calls him mother, but he has never called him father. After all, he has no father.

Xue Ningxiang is so embarrassed in her heart that she can't wait to find a pit to bury the dog baby and herself!

She walked over quickly, hugged the dog baby over, and said embarrassingly: "I'm sorry, baby is not sensible, don't take it offense."

Dean Li smiled: "Ah, it's okay."

Xue Ningxiang hurriedly took the dog away, but the dog turned her head again and called daddy to Dean Li.

Xue Ningxiang was so embarrassed that she wanted to cry.

Baby, don't say your father is dead, even if he is not dead, it is impossible to be the dean of others!

What are you?

Where did this foolish ability to recognize my father come from?

Calling you a dog baby, you really have the guts!

Xue Ningxiang fled back to the house with her son in her arms, closed the door, inserted the latch, and worked hard!

Dean Li shook his head amusingly.

father?

In his entire life... I'm afraid he won't be able to be a father.

After Xue Ningxiang took her son back to the house, she put her son on the bed and corrected him seriously: "Doll, you don't have a father."

Dog baby: "Dad."

Xue Ningxiang: "Not Dad!"

"father."

Xue Ningxiang: "I said there is no father! Don't call me father! No!"

The dog crawled out: "Dad."

Xue Ningxiang is going to be driven mad by her son!

If you continue to blindly recognize your father, I will not be able to hold down your father's coffin board! ! !

Xue Ning was so fragrant that she shook her pillow, and a hard object fell out and hit the stool with a click.

Xue Ningxiang picked up the thing, but she couldn't remember it at first. After thinking for a long time, she frowned: "Huh? This is not..."
