Professor Li’s Married Life Chapter 30:

The fifth girl always does one thing in front of her face and another in another's back. Like her aunt, she is used to provoking tricks.

It is not uncommon for the concubine and concubine to be at odds in the inner house. Gu Qingci suffers from temper, and is most likely to be irritated by a few words from others. Gu Qingci made a fool of himself, and if he said a word that was plausible, Gu Qingci would be able to rush up and scold with all his teeth and claws, and in the end the fault was all on Gu Qingci.

I don't know how many times the sixth girl has suffered losses since she was a child, and the more she offended the second master, she only went to love and coax the weak fifth girl.

In the second bedroom, many maids in and out of the courtyard whispered in private, saying that the fifth girl is well-educated, gentle and kind-hearted, while the sixth girl is self-willed and difficult to serve, strange that the second master only favors the fifth girl.

As soon as Gu Qingwan heard that Gu Qingci had returned, she wanted to ridicule and ridicule her, thinking that she would lose her temper and lose her temper, just to let everyone see how arrogant she was, and if she could go to pity her father in front of her, her father would Love their mother and daughter even more.

Going to change clothes, I took the maid to the second wife's yard.

The second wife was finishing her lunch, she just left and rinsed her mouth, and the maid made tea for her to eat, Gu Qingci just stood aside.

The mother and daughter talked and laughed.

The second wife said: "Before, my mother felt sorry for you, Li Chengze, who ruined the rest of your life. You were so blind from crying. You wished you could kill that family. If you take a closer look today, he is gentle and polite. She has a degree, and her appearance is also outstanding. The only bad thing is that she has a mother who can't pick it up clearly. Fortunately, we have taken the wrong place right now, so we can't shake it anymore."

Bai's Gu Qingci was not happy when he mentioned it, and said coldly: "Although he has been poor all his life, his heart is bigger than the sky, he doesn't follow the rules, and he is very shameless."

The second wife scolded her a few words: "If you say a few words in front of me, you can't pass it around. But don't show your eyes to your son-in-law. If someone hears a sentence or a half, it will be easy. A rift will be born, and the relationship between husband and wife will be ruined, and there will be no place to cry when the time comes."

Gu Qingci rolled her eyes: "My daughter is not stupid, why would she tell her husband."

The second wife shook her head, "It's because I'm afraid that you're too loose to keep your mouth shut and say it out of nowhere. Anyway, just remember it."

Just as I was talking about this, a maid came in through the curtain and said, "Ma'am, Miss Wu is here."

The second wife frowned slightly, recovered quickly, and said lightly: "Please come in."

After the words were finished, the servant girl withdrew, and after a while, Gu Qingwan walked in with lotus steps lightly, carrying the servant girl.

First give the second wife a blessing, then looked at Gu Qingci, and said: "Ah, the sixth younger sister is back, I just heard about it from the maids, I thought they were wrong, I haven't seen you for a long time, sister I miss it so much, I don’t know what’s the matter with Sixth Sister coming back?”

Gu Qingci chuckled: "Fifth Sister is really strange. What can I do, but I miss my mother and come back. Could it be that Fifth Sister has some advice?"

Gu Qingwan also smiled, but her eyes never left Gu Qingci, trying to see something on her face.

Waiting to see that Gu Qingci is in high spirits, with bright facial features, lively eyebrows and eyes, so fresh and beautiful that people can hardly move their eyes away. Not only is there no gloomy, bitter and bitter look in his eyes, but he looks a little more charming than before.

Gu Qingwan hardly believed it, how could it be possible?

Gu Qingci is married to such an unbearable person, how can she still be proud and proud!

She must be pretending, Gu Qingwan thought to herself.

The veil was unconsciously clenched in his hand.

There was a sense of boredom in her heart, she felt uncomfortable even though Qingci was a little bit better, and Gu Qingci should be trampled on by her forever.

The thought was only in the blink of an eye, but the face was still gentle and kind, "Sixth sister misunderstood me, I was just worried that my sister would be bullied, I don't know how happy you are back, but I'm afraid that sixth sister will go back later, It's a pity that we don't have a chance to say a few more words."

Listening to these hypocritical words, Gu Qingci almost vomited out the disgusting overnight meal.

The second wife's face darkened, thinking what kind of heart this little **** is, she insisted on using words to provoke her even though she knew what she cared about.

The meaning of her words is clearly that it doesn't matter if you come back, or you will leave soon, no matter how rich and comfortable the life in the mansion is, it is not yours anymore.

The second wife narrowed her eyes, and said like a Bodhisattva: "The fifth girl has a heart, and it's rare for her to miss your sister. She really understands it, but you don't have to regret it. The sixth son-in-law takes pity on your sister's homesickness, so send her back home Stay for half a month, so you sisters have plenty of time to get along and talk."

Gu Qingwan was really stunned.

I was so surprised that I forgot to hide it, and blurted out: "How is it possible!"

He turned pale, and quickly stood up to admit his mistake to the second wife, Fuli.

"Mother, I, I didn't mean that. My daughter is clumsy and can't speak. I hope my mother will forgive me. My sister, don't be angry."

The second wife took a sip of tea slowly, her eyes were downcast and she couldn't see her expression clearly. After a long while, she said, "What is this for? Get up quickly, let people see me and think I've done something to you. The fifth girl is the master. How can a person who praises his intelligence be so stupid? Your sixth younger sister is a real idiot. She has suffered so much from others since she was a child, and she can't even teach you. You often play together, and fifth girl knows best .”

No one in the room couldn't tell who the irony was.

Gu Qingwan's face was red and white, she clenched her fists, her palms turned red.

However, she couldn't say a word of rebuttal. The second wife neither specified nor had a name. If she hurried back to talk back, wouldn't it be that she admitted that she framed and bullied Gu Qingci.

The second wife is not Gu Qingci, Gu Qingwan can't do those tricks with her.

Gu Qingwan could only honestly bow her head and admit her mistake.

The second wife couldn't bear the sight of the concubine standing in front of her on such a good day, so she waved her away after a few reprimands.

In the evening, the second wife got the news that the maid in the fifth girl's room dropped several tea bowls.

The second wife just sneered, "She is used to putting on airs on weekdays, and others only say that everything is good, and the first daughters of the two families will be compared by her, but they don't know that they are just like her aunt in private." The two-faced stuff on the top, I'm bah."

Mother Zhou was pinching the shoulders of the second wife, and said: "Madam, don't be angry, how can the fifth girl's thoughts be hidden from others, but she usually uses money to coax people, and the little girls just want to get some benefits.

She rushed here this afternoon, just to see our girl laughing, seeing that the girl is doing well everywhere, she can't hold back anymore. "

"Intuit's vicious heart will be punished sooner or later. A concubine's heart is higher than the sky, and she is wishful thinking all day long. Let's keep our eyes open and see what kind of family she can marry in the future."

"Who says it's not, the five girls have done a good job, if you go to an ordinary family, you don't have to bury her."

Mother Zhou's words are completely sarcastic.

The next day, the eldest wife at the big house invited Mrs. Zhao Guogong's mansion as a guest.

Madam Zhao had two daughters by her side, so the eldest wife asked Gu Qingjin, the fourth girl, to take them for a stroll.

"Your fifth and seventh younger sisters, as well as that girl Qingci, you send a few maidservants to invite them, so that we can have more fun together." said the eldest lady.

The fourth girl was born to the eldest wife, the first daughter of the first wife, and the seventh girl was the first daughter of the third wife.

Gu Qingjin responded gently.

Leading the Zhao family's two daughters by the hand, talking and laughing.

Gu Qingci had a full sleep, full of energy, and flushed.

In the morning, Yuzhu came over and ordered breakfast, and she was coaxed for a long time before she was willing to get up.

The second wife has always doted on her daughter relentlessly, let her be the one who is not too out of line, otherwise she wouldn't have raised Gu Qingci to be like this.

One more thing, the girl is a guest when she gets married and returns to her mother's house, how can the second wife be willing to hold her back.

The second wife went to the side hall to see the woman in charge and came back, Gu Qingci was about to finish her breakfast.

Just at this moment, the servant girl brought the girl next to the fourth girl over.

The second wife asked what was the matter.

The girl said crisply: "Today, the wife of Mr. Zhao's family came to visit, and there were two Miss Zhao. The eldest lady asked the girls to go and play together."

The second wife nodded slightly, asked the nanny to give the reward, and asked people to go back and answer.

Turning his head to look Gu Qingci up and down, nodding in satisfaction, "My son has an outstanding appearance, no one in the house can compare to it, so people will like it when they look at it."

Gu Qingci was very proud of hearing this, her eyebrows were flying high, and then she took her maid over.

As soon as they arrived at the flower hall, Gu Qingwan and Gu Qingmiao, the seventh girl from the third room, had already arrived.

Several people greeted each other and greeted each other.

Gu Qingjin introduced the two young ladies of the Zhao family to them.

My elder sister is Zhao Baoan, and my younger sister is Zhao Baoning. They are about the same age as the Gu family sisters.

Zhao Baoning has a more lively temper. He thought he had heard about Gu Qingci, so he put his eyes on her as soon as he came, and smiled.

"This is the sixth girl? She is really good-looking. I heard that she is married. Where does she live? I will post a post some other day and ask sister Gu to play at her house."

Gu Qingwan lowered her head and took a sip of her tea, then wiped it with a handkerchief to hide the smile on her lips.

The eldest daughter of the Zhao family, Zhao Baoan, quickly tugged on her sister's sleeve, and glared at her.

Turning her head and looking at Gu Qingci with an apologetic face, she said, "Baoning is young and outspoken, I hope Miss Six doesn't mind."

Gu Qingci wanted to smile, but instead of answering Zhao Baoan's words, she said to Zhao Baoning: "I don't know when Ms. Zhao was born, and what month is her birthday?"

Several people were taken aback for a moment, not knowing why Gu Qingci asked this.

Zhao Baoning felt that Gu Qingci was pretending to be a ghost, so he curled his lips and didn't care, so he said it.

After listening, Gu Qingci raised her eyebrows: "It seems that Miss Zhao is a few months older than me. I was born in the twelfth lunar month."

It was only then that everyone reacted.

Just now Zhao Baoning seemed to be calling Gu Qingci's sister, but in fact what he said implied ridicule.

Gu Qingci is not someone who can be bullied, so she asked her age first, and then said that.

Warning people's face makes them unable to get off the stage.

Before the others had time to speak, Gu Qingci turned to the servant girl and said, "Yu Chuan, go get a pair of paper and pen."

Yu Chuan left immediately and came over soon.

Pass the things to Gu Qingci.

Gu Qingci spread the snow-white paper on the table, picked up a pen and wrote a line.

Then with a grin, he folded the paper and threw it to Zhao Baoning, saying: "My family lives here, and I'm waiting for Miss Zhao's post."

Zhao Baoning's complexion was even worse.

Gu Qingjin had a headache. This cousin of hers is not a good-natured girl, but how could she be offended by a visitor from the Zhao family? Let's play Shefu, I just got a jar of plum wine, it's very refreshing but not intoxicating, just right."

Seventh Miss Ying agreed with her a few words, and Zhao Baoan also agreed.

Gu Qingjin asked the maid to get plum wine.

The so-called shot cover is actually a kind of drinking order. Shooting means guessing, and covering means covering.

This game is often played by both men and women. There were books earlier that recorded the allusion of Fencao Shefu.

The earliest shooters were simple, they took something and placed it in a basin or under a urn, and asked people to guess.

Afterwards, the tricks gradually increased, but they were not too complicated, it just became more elegant and poetic.

The people are divided into several groups. The respondent uses a poem idiom or allusion to imply something, and the shooter guesses, and then uses another poem idiom or allusion to reveal the answer.

If you guess right, the one who replies will be fined with alcohol, but if you make a wrong guess, you will be the one who shoots.

In this way, everyone started to play, and the maids around the girls also came to join in the fun.

After winning the lottery again, Gu Qingci threw a jade bracelet over.

There are female guests here, so it's not good for people to drink too much wine, so the maids only took the smallest cups, and brought all kinds of snacks and side dishes.

The girls played lively in the flower hall.

Gu Qingci was lucky today, winning several times in a row.

Gu Qingwan has always boasted of being a talented girl, she was so proud of something, today it was strange, she lost several games to Miss Zhao's family one after another, and she was not at all unhappy when she lost, on the contrary, she became even closer to Miss Zhao.

It doesn't look like her at all. Gu Qingci murmured in her heart, and told the second wife about it when she came back.

The second wife was not surprised at all, without raising her eyelids, she just said: "My silly girl, what do you think Mrs. Zhao is doing at home today? She is here for the son at home to see his wife. Your fourth sister is older than you One year old, the eldest wife started to visit people in private, Mrs. Zhao is not the first time to enter the door of our house, everyone knows what it means, but it is not easy to reveal it before making a decision. Gu Qingwan is only two years younger than the fourth girl. In the past month, why did you say she was so enthusiastic about the girl from the Zhao family? Didn’t she just fall in love with the court of Zhao Guogong’s mansion and want to climb high. "

Gu Qingci came to a sudden, and said: "I said why is she so wrong today, so she wants to get married."

The second wife laughed and shook her head, "You are married anyway, why are you so careless, that one is full of holes in his heart, but you are a lack of heart."

Gu Qingci made a fuss over the second lady in a coquettish voice.

Sure enough, as the second lady said, the eldest wife and Mrs. Zhao are indeed investigating each other.

Three days later, the Zhao family posted a message to Gu's mansion, inviting people to appreciate the plum blossoms in the other courtyard of Zhao's mansion.

It's not good for the eldest lady to bring her four girls alone, the unmarried couples in the family and Gu Qingci are all brought along.

Gu Qingci privately said to the second wife: "Why are the plum blossoms blooming? It's cold, and it snowed yesterday. It's better to stay at home comfortably."

The second wife couldn't laugh or cry, "Why did I give birth to you such a fool!" Now that this opportunity is available, the second wife is willing to let her daughter go. The daughter is not well married, so she can only see her when she comes to her mother's house. Several distinguished guests, in the Li family, no one would invite her to play.

Two days later, early in the morning, the eldest wife took four girls, five girls, seven girls and Gu Qingci to the other courtyard of Zhao Mansion in a carriage.

It was originally a matter of seeing the snow and admiring the plum blossoms. When we arrived at the other courtyard, the scenery was really good.

Of course the Zhao family did not invite the Gu family alone, there were also many ladies and ladies from other families, and even several young masters of the Zhao family.

So it was very lively.

Because there are adults around, the young people don't care so much, and greet each other.

Gu Qingjin glanced at Mr. Zhao, her cheeks were slightly red.

Gu Qingci thought that she was really looking at each other.

If you have a good time, you can talk to someone who has a good time. The capital is such a big place, and people from this poetry club and that literary club are all familiar faces, and there are very few people who don't know each other.

Gu Qingci followed Gu Qingjin and Gu Qingmiao together, while Gu Qingwan went to someone else's place.

When the girls get together, there are many topics to discuss.

Gu Qingci heard the girls next to them discussing the "weekly newspaper".

She was at a loss, so she asked Gu Qingjin.

Gu Qingjin explained to her in a low voice: "The weekly newspaper is a new kind of mansion newspaper that came out recently. It published a novel written by a person named 'Huangliang Yimeng'. In the near future, it’s selling very well, and if the sixth sister comes back, if she’s free, she can buy it and take a look.”

After listening to it, Gu Qingci became even more curious. She also loves to read the story books, and she used to read them secretly.

Although the early plum blossoms are in bloom, they are not as lush and colorful as the late plum blossoms.

Gu Qingci lost interest after looking at it for a while, so he ate some hot tea and snacks at the banquet, and wandered around.

After a while, I went outside the other courtyard, and saw a girl in bright red playing with several maroon horses.

She went up to answer someone, and as she talked, the girl invited Gu Qingci to go for a horse ride

After thinking about it, Gu Qingci came out to play on the left and right, and she didn't have anything to do in the yard, so she agreed, and only asked Yuzhu to go back and talk to the eldest wife, and they rode a horse with the girl in red. happily left.

Unexpectedly, something went wrong.

When the news spread back to the government, the second wife almost fainted, wondering if she had heard it wrong.

"What did you say, say it again?"

The boy stammered and said again: "Miss Six fell off her horse and broke her leg."

*

When Gu Qingci was sent back, she passed out and her legs were covered with boards.

The second wife was out of breath from crying.

The eldest lady came to make amends in person and took a lot of medicinal materials and supplements.

Then he and the second wife went into the inner room, and the eldest wife told the whole story.

It turned out that Gu Qingci was riding horses with Mrs. Zhao's niece, but they ran into the third young master Zhao meeting Gu Qingwan in private.

The third young master knew a lot of kung fu, and when he heard some movements, he was afraid that there was a ghost in his heart, so he picked up the jade pendant and flew over, startling Gu Qingci's horse, the horse galloped wildly, and then threw Gu Qingci off.

"That bastard, a shameless thing!" The second wife was furious, and it was Gu Qingwan who harmed her daughter again.

The eldest wife hates it more than the second wife, and the third young master Zhao was originally looking after his daughter.

Looking at today's situation, it's probably not the first time the two have met.

After talking with the second wife for a long time, the eldest wife left.

At that time, Gu Qingwan calmed down after panicking for a while, she felt that she had done nothing.

I don't admit that I have anything to do with Mr. Zhao, only that I accidentally met him while enjoying the scenery.

They are all respectable families, and it is a shameful scandal for the whole family to say that a private meeting between a man and a woman, so at that time the eldest wife and Mrs. Zhao skipped this, and only said that the horse was surprised by accident.

It's just that the words are unbearable to think about. If the two of them had no ghosts in their hearts and just met by accident, how could Third Young Master Zhao be so nervous and hurt Gu Qingci's horse in a panic.

After the doctor came to bandage Gu Qingci's wound, the eldest wife left with the girls and servant girls.

I was very angry.

Knowing that the Gu family and the Zhao family cannot get married.

As for Li Cheng, he didn't receive the news until the next day.

His little wife went out to play and broke her leg.

After asking that there was no serious problem, he didn't care about anything else, and immediately followed the servants of the Gu family to go there.

Li Cheng had a headache and sighed in his heart, how could he be so noisy.

Thinking again, if the bone is broken, the girl must have cried madly again.
