Professor Li’s Married Life Chapter 22:

Gu Qingci smiled when he saw Li Cheng, and instinctively did not dare to mess with him.

In the end it was her, of course she blamed others for the fault. Gu Qingci whispered angrily: "It was Cheng Yueying who came to provoke me first. She was arrogant and domineering, scolding me and laughing at me. How could I bear it."

Li Cheng raised his eyebrows: "What did she scold and mock you for?"

Gu Qingci pursed her lips and refused to speak.

If you don't mention Li Chengze, you can guess that it is nothing more than laughing at her as a low-marriage.

So he didn't continue to press, just said: "So you gave her a slap?"

"She hit me too, and even scratched me." Gu Qingci retorted in a low voice with a bit of aggrieved tone.

"Where is the injury, let me see." Li Cheng looked at her up and down.

Just as Gu Qingci put his hand in front of Li Chengye, he saw that there were indeed a few bright red scratches on the back of Bai Shengsheng's hand, stretching all the way to his arm.

Li Cheng picked it up and looked at it, seeing that a layer of white ointment or other medicine had been applied on it, so he didn't say anything else.

Gu Qingci couldn't grasp the point and understand these trivial things, so it was the girls' quarrel.

Li Chengze still couldn't find the time to worry about this, so he simply explained a truth to Gu Qingci, and said seriously: "It's not a big deal for you to quarrel with others, but I have to teach you a truth, no matter what you do in the future , remember one thing, don't hand over the handle to someone to catch, otherwise you will fall to the bottom, and if you meet a ruthless one, you will suffer, remember?"

It's nothing to fight, you can fight until people are speechless. Gu Qingci is good, since the sky is still someone else's territory, she can strike first, with so many eyes watching, if someone is determined If I want to punish you, I'm afraid I can only admit it.

This society is strict in etiquette, especially for women. Gu Qingci should understand better than Li Chengze.

"Stupid girl with no brains." Li Chengze sighed inwardly.

Gu Qingci is very uncertain, some things can be forgotten in a blink of an eye, no matter how detailed you say them. At this moment, just watching her nod, I don't know if she has lost her mind.

After all, she had already acted obediently, Li Cheng didn't make things difficult any more, he told her again, and then called the servant girl, and took Gu Qingci away.

Then he called Yuan Bao and asked him to inquire about Yuzhenxuan.

*

During this period of time, Mrs. Bai and a lady surnamed Wu got close, and I don't know what kind of friendship they established.

Every day is full of red, as if something happy happened.

He even tolerated Li Zhi and Li Chan a lot, no longer like the two days ago, as soon as the two sisters came back from the west courtyard, they would ask Gu Qingci about it.

Ask Gu Qingci what good things are there, how much jewelry is placed in the house, and whether they have given some to their sisters.

When they saw that they just shook their heads in a muffled voice, and couldn't ask a word after several sticks, they poked their foreheads with their fingers and scolded in a low voice: "I don't know how smart you are if you don't have anything. You just pick up the jewellery, ornaments, precious calligraphy and paintings in Gu Qingci’s room, as well as those hairpin jewelry, and say you like them, people raised by her big family want face, so why don’t you give them to you?”

Hearing these words, Li Zhi's face flushed with shame, feeling ashamed.

Also complained that her mother didn't understand anything at all, let alone the rules in the house of a young lady like Gu Qingci, and she always tried to control her, using some indecent means.

If the sisters really play this trick in front of Gu Qingci, it will not be a joke for people to look at coldly, and it will be too late to dig a hole and jump in by then.

When Li Zhi grew up one year old, she became more like a big girl, she knew more things, and she also knew more about shame.

But I also know that I can't say this to Bai Shi, so I can only say: "Our sisters are stupid. Qian patronizes to ask for things, even if my sister-in-law is nice, she doesn't say anything, but there are a bunch of maids there, with ten eyes and eight eyes, seeing them, how can they laugh at our family in private? Joke at brother?"

Even if he said this, Bai's face was still darkened, but at least he didn't say what he said before.

Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Wu became acquainted, and from time to time they would visit other people's houses, or invite people to Li's house.

As a result, she has less time to take care of the two sisters of the Li family.

Mrs. Wu is from Wujiatun, which is closer to the capital than Hekou Village. Mrs. Wu's husband's family is a small landlord with a thousand acres of fertile land. They live a very wealthy and luxurious life in the countryside. Mr. Wu is also a figure in the surrounding three towns and five villages.

Today Li Chan and Li Zhi came to study in the West Campus as usual, Gu Qingci was sometimes bored, so he would chat with them for a while, and occasionally ask a few things about the East Campus.

The two sisters respected Gu Qingci. When she heard her question, Li Chan spoke quickly, and immediately said: "Nothing else, but that Mrs. Wu is here again. She has been coming to our house frequently recently. I've seen it three times."

Gu Qingci just asked casually, not paying much attention to who came to the house.

Playing with the flower tassel in his hand, he raised his eyelids and said lazily, "Which Mrs. Wu is a relative of our family?"

Li Chan whispered: "Where is the relative, I heard it is from Wujiatun, I have never seen this person before."

Gu Qingci nodded and stopped talking, no one took this matter to heart.

Dinning together in the evening, Li Baode and Li Chengze were not there. The son came to Hekou Village a few days ago and someone said something happened in the village, so the father and son went to the countryside together. They will not return today, so they don't have to wait for dinner.

There were a few female family members sitting on the table, and everyone finished their meal dryly. Mrs. Sun went back to her room, and the two Miss Li were also sent away.

The Bai family left Gu Qingci alone to speak.

Bai looked at Gu Qingci with a gentle smile on her face, and said slowly, "You are a girl who was raised in the family of an honorable noble. I just saw that I didn't have a few mouthfuls of food. It must be because I can't get used to these rough foods and it doesn't suit my appetite. You are a delicate person, and you don't know the difficulties of people like us, but now that you are married, you are a family, and I am not afraid No face, Ze'er married you, and most of the family's assets were consumed. Right now, everything is tight in the family, and everything is short, and Ze'er spends a lot more on studying. After tossing around, it's hard to get even a penny of spare money It's..."

Hearing these words, Gu Qingci was a little dazed for a moment, unable to react.

But Mrs. Bai felt that this young lady is not difficult to deal with, so she continued: "I think you are my own person who said this, and you can understand the meaning. Your family is rich and noble, and you have many dowries. Now you are a family." , The old lady above is still there, and there is no reason why your rich and well-clothed elders eat bran and swallow vegetables. Outsiders know what to say, so I let you come out with money to subsidize the family."

Li Cheng was not there, and the Bai family had no taboos, let alone beat around the bush, and spoke very straightforwardly.

Gu Qingci was really shocked.

The first reaction was that Mrs. Bai is so shameless, why is she so shameless, asking for money in front of her face!

She has been a lady of the boudoir for more than ten years. How can she ever hear such a thing? The servants around her are all carefully selected and raised from childhood to adulthood. girls.

I've never seen the housekeeper's wife before, but the point is, Gu Qingci never learned how to be a housekeeper with the second wife for a day.

In the aristocratic family, everyone has to turn seven or eight corners when they say a word, and everyone wants to face, even if they are kind to their enemies. In the past, Gu Qingci hated such people very much. Because of her impulsive temper, she was plotted several times by others.

But now it seems that false politeness is much better than shameless.

Although Gu Qingci has never been involved, she is not a person who can suffer. Bai asked her to take money to supplement the family. Come on me, and I have never used your family for a penny, and now I want to support your family instead? Others want to make fun of it, and it is a joke that your Li family is shameless."

"Shut up!" Bai's face darkened instantly, "What kind of good manners have been taught by the lady of the Hou family! It seems that I treat you too leniently and make you humble like this. It's very good that you don't care about anyone, I'm afraid you won't know what's good and what's bad if you don't suffer once!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mrs. Bai yelled out, and soon, a tall and rough woman came in.

This person was given to Mrs. Bai today by Mrs. Wu. She gave it along with her body deed. She has had it several times in her hands, and she will keep it to be obedient in the future.

Gu Qingci realized that something was wrong, and took two steps back, but it was too late, the woman stepped forward to restrain her, took out a rope to tie her hands and feet, and gagged her mouth.

Ms. Bai turned sideways and said to her mother-in-law: "For the first time, you should keep your hands back, just let her understand the truth, know how to respect mother-in-law, learn how to raise and lower eyebrows, and then get it in the ear room to close it." One night, one kill one kill one's temper."

The mother-in-law didn't show any expression, she responded with a wooden board, and dragged Gu Qingci down.

Bai Shi also followed out of the house, avoiding people, and quietly exited the small door. With a big copper lock, all the main door and side door of the west courtyard were locked.

Then he went back to the east courtyard as if nothing had happened.

Looking forward slowly, the night is long.
