Chapter 7 Preparing for War
When Uncle Gu heard this, he pulled his sleeves suddenly and threw Aunt Gu back a few steps.
"What are you saying? I can't let her daughter be destroyed just because I'm afraid that my second brother will hate me. That's my niece!" Uncle Gu was angry, and after saying that, he kicked the tree next to him a few times.
The aunt's eyes were a little red. Uncle Gu had never given her a face in front of her servants for so many years.
"Don't I know that you have a niece, you not only have a niece, but also a daughter and a son, but I have nothing." After the aunt said, she shook her sleeve and left in anger.
Uncle Gu realized what he had just said and hurriedly pulled the aunt, "Look at you, why are you angry because of a junior?"
Seeing that the aunt was silent, Uncle Gu said again, "You should know what I have treated you over the years."
The aunt's face calmed down a little, "Okay, I'm so old. What are you saying? I'll go and persuade her. After all, you're just an uncle and not a father. If you care about your children, you have to pay attention to methods."
Uncle Gu nodded repeatedly, and the two of them said something along the way, and sent the aunt back to the house before returning to the study to handle business.
The aunt looked at Uncle Gu's departure back, and the smile on her lips disappeared little by little, "Huaibi, have you seen it? He is becoming more and more impatient with me now."
Huaibi is the dowry girl of the eldest aunt. Now everyone in and out of the yard calls Madam Huai, put the curtain and helped the eldest aunt into the house. "Madam, don't think too much. After so many years, you have always been the only one in front of the master. The Ye family's affairs are extraordinary after all. I believe the master is so angry with the girl in the second house."
When Gu Yaoyao mentioned, the aunt's face slowly recovered, "Angry? That's better."
Sitting by the stove, rubbing his hands, then continued, "Is the spring clothes ready for this year?"
Madam Huai nodded quickly, "It's already been distributed, but this year's Spring Festival Gala, otherwise everyone in the mansion should wear it."
The eldest aunt nodded, "Let Minghui often go and see Yaoyao girl. The two of them are about the same age, so I guess they can go to the same place."
The master of the big house is also simple. Except for the eldest aunt, Gu Mingchen, the brother and sister of Gu Minghui, they are twins. When they were born, they were recorded in the eldest aunt's name. The rest were only married, but they only treated a few things and could not be listed.
The two of them are one year older than Gu Yaoyao. They originally started to talk about marriage last year, but they delayed it when something happened in Mingchen, but they made a decision earlier, waiting for the old lady to return to Beijing and ask her to make a marriage for Changyan.
Since Aunt Gu had spoken, Gu Minghui went to visit Gu Yaoyao early the next morning.
Because the old lady was sick, there was no need for the younger generation to greet her. It was when Minghui came here that Gu Yaoyao was about to rise.
"Sister Minghui." Gu Yaoyao smiled and said, with obvious joy in her voice.
Gu Minghui is not as pleasing as Gu Yaoyao. Perhaps she understands her identity too well and has never laughed since she was a child, giving people a cold feeling.
The two of them are actually not familiar with each other. The nominal daughter is always lower than others. Faced with Gu Yaoyao's enthusiasm, Gu Minghui was a little helpless and stood there for a long time before saying, "Have you got up?"
Gu Yaoyao nodded gently, "Sister is here just right, I'm watching alone being bored with breakfast." Gu Yaoyao didn't care about that much, just pulled the person to sit in front of the table.
However, he looked at Gu Minghui with the corners of his eyes. Today, Gu Minghui's simple clothes were quite in line with the appearance that Gu Yaoyao liked in the eyes of outsiders.
It's just obviously a little small and old in style. When I get close to it, I smell the smell of camphor wood boxes on my clothes. I'm afraid I've searched for such a piece after rummaging through the bottom of the box.
In my memory, Gu Minghui's clothes are mostly pink. Although they are at her age, her cold temperament is really unworthy of wearing them.
The eldest aunt, the legitimate mother, is not to be picky in front of outsiders, but she just doesn't know how to do it carefully, or she actually has too much thought.
"I should have come to sit with you two days ago, but I am afraid that you will be tired from the road and disturb you. I heard from my mother's instructions yesterday and then dared to come to the door." Sitting at the table, Gu Minghui explained.
After all, she is sensitive and doesn't want people to think that she is deliberately trying to cling to other people's serious daughter.
Gu Yaoyao smiled faintly, "Why are your sisters so close?"
But his heart was clear and transparent. Gu Minghui was discussing marriage, but he was very happy when he was having fun. If Gu Minghui happened to be ignorant, she was dressed brightly and showed off in front of Gu Yaoyao.
Then Gu Yaoyao's heart felt as painful as a knife. If he had a temperament in his previous life, wouldn't he have to make trouble with Mrs. Gu again?
The food was served as mentioned above. Gu Minghui had already used it when she came. She was afraid that Gu Yaoyao would be interested, so she sat at the table and sipped in small mouthfuls.
Gu Yaoyao didn't care, and he ate and drank enough to pull Gu Minghui to digest the food.
Gu Minghui sighed helplessly and had to keep up.
Gu Yaoyao was closest to the old lady's yard and soon arrived at the door of the old lady's yard. Gu Minghui's steps were slower.
Although they are all called grandmother, the old lady is not close to her. Even though she was in the capital when she was a child, the old lady rarely talks to her in her memory.
Just as he raised his hand, Gu Yaoyao was already calling out to grandmother, and if he left, he would seem deliberate and could only follow in with his teeth.
"It's two girls here." When Madam Qian heard the movement, she smiled and greeted her.
The snow stopped today, and the sun shone warmly. The curtain lifted up and brought in a smell of the sun.
The old lady who was holding the album couldn't help but sigh, "It's better to be outside."
"Grandmother, uncle and aunt." Gu Yaoyao came in to greet him. Before anyone could speak, she stood up and sat in front of the old lady.
Without Gu Yaoyao's work, the old lady's face looked much better than yesterday.
"Grandmother, father and mother." Compared to Gu Yaoyao, Gu Minghui seemed much more restrained.
After I got Uncle Gu nodded and stood behind Aunt Gu in a regular manner.
Aunt Gu glanced at Gu Minghui's clothes, then withdrew her gaze, and looked at Gu Yaoyao with a smile, "Look at this girl's life, it must be nothing."
After hearing this, the old lady had a hint of displeasure in her eyes, but she didn't say anything to Aunt Gu. Her eyes were always on Gu Yaoyao, "This monkey has never stopped."
Gu Yaoyao leaned on the old lady, "That's natural." He said that, and he put his eyes on the booklet in the old lady's hand, "What's this?"
I took it with the flow, and saw that there were many men on the book.
