"Qiancheng, neither the old lady nor the madam are going to this Chinese Valentine's Day banquet. The old lady kissed the second lady and took you and Qian Meng into the palace. If you have time, go and meet your second aunt. This is your first time entering the palace.
, there is nothing wrong with asking more questions.”
The third lady said this to remind Qiancheng not to forget to go back and pay homage to the second lady. At the same time, she told Qiancheng that the old lady and Mrs. Gu were tired of the old man...
Gu Qiancheng pondered for a moment and nodded: "Thank you, Third Aunt."
Back in the courtyard, the servants have already prepared hot water, and Gu Qiancheng can enjoy top-notch treatment as soon as he enters the house...
Soaking in the hot water, Gu Qiancheng played with the water while thinking about what happened in just half an hour.
The old man’s attention, the third lady’s advice...
"What did the old lady and Mrs. Gu do? To be so completely rejected by the old man?" Gu Qiancheng couldn't understand why the old man suddenly took action against the inner courtyard?
The old man has always believed that men should take charge of the outside and women should take charge of the house, and rarely interfere in the affairs of the inner court. For so many years, the old lady has always been the master of the inner court and has her own way of doing things. She never pays attention to rules and regulations in doing things, but only wants to be happy.
Although the old man was dissatisfied, he always turned a blind eye. Unless it went too far, the old man would not care at all.
This time, the old man was so ruthless that Gu Qiancheng wouldn't believe it if something serious hadn't happened.
Moreover, the old lady's kindness to her was so unusual.
She needed to know how to repair the yard and ask for posts before she rescued Feng Sijin. If she had saved Feng Sijin after she rescued Feng Sijin, she would still understand what happened, but now...
The old man is completely sincere for her own good?
After saying this, I'm afraid even Chengyi wouldn't believe it. Even if the old man is sincere, he is only three-thirds sincere.
"The boat will straighten out when it reaches the bridge. Can I still live a more miserable life than when I first came here?"
Gu Qiancheng shook his head and stopped thinking, and walked out of the bucket with a splash, his long hair hanging casually behind him, letting it drip all the way...
Picking up the towel on the shelf and wrapping his hair, Gu Qiancheng got dressed and went out. There were already maids waiting outside the door. As soon as Gu Qiancheng went out, the maid came in to clean the bathroom, while the eldest maid followed Gu Qiancheng.
Behind her, she twisted her hair and dressed her makeup.
Gu Qiancheng did not refuse this time because she still wanted to see the old man.
By the time Gu Qiancheng's hair was dry and his makeup was done, it was already dark and he had to rely on a lantern to see. Gu Qiancheng lived in a remote area, so he brought a few more girls over.
Gu Qiancheng was glad that he had brought enough people with him, because...
Mrs. Gu ran out of nowhere, knelt down in front of her with a pop, and burst into tears without waiting for Gu Qiancheng's reaction:
"Qiancheng, Qiancheng, mother, please help me plead with the old man for mercy and return Chengzhi to me."
"Chengzhi is my life, Qiancheng... Mother knows she was wrong. You can take revenge on her no matter what. Please let Chengzhi go. She is still a child."
"Miss..." As soon as the servants came forward quickly, Gu Qiancheng himself reacted quickly. When Mrs. Gu knelt down, he stepped out of the way first and did not stand there stupidly, being knelt down by Mrs. Gu.
In heaven and earth, only the son kneels down to his mother, and there has never been a mother kneeling down to her son. Even if Gu Qiancheng doesn't admit it, Mrs. Gu is still her mother from a legal perspective, and Gu Qiancheng can't bear this kneeling.
Gu Qiancheng stood aside, looking at Mrs. Gu condescendingly, twirling his fingers lazily, and said unhurriedly: "Madam, if you have something to say, how ugly are you kneeling like this?"
"Qiancheng, if you don't promise me today, I won't get up. Qiancheng... mother knows she was wrong, please let Chengzhi go."
Mrs. Gu turned around and kowtowed in the direction of Gu Qiancheng...
Madam Gu was not begging Qiancheng, she was clearly forcing her. Unfortunately, Madam Gu was doomed to be disappointed. Gu Qiancheng did not even frown: "I don't understand Madam's words. Madam is the head mistress of the Duke's Mansion.
What the madam wants to do is not something Qiancheng can interfere with."
"Qiancheng, mother has knelt down for you, are you still unwilling to let mother and Chengzhi go?" Mrs. Gu said heartbroken, like a little white flower being bullied, but Gu Qiancheng is not Gu Guogong, she
I don't like Mrs. Gu at all.
Gu Qiancheng moved away again, closing the distance between the two of them: "I don't know what madam means? Even if madam wants to accuse Qiancheng, she can only give a reliable reason. Why is it that I can't make the decision in Chengzhi? Even madam
It's not right to beg me when you're asking for help. Madam, if you like, just kneel down. You guys stay with me here to avoid disturbing the madam by people who don't have a good eye."
"Qiancheng..." Mrs. Gu shouted, trying to hold the hem of Gu Qiancheng's skirt to prevent her from leaving.
The Duke of Guo hasn't come yet, how can Qiancheng leave...
Unfortunately, Gu Qiancheng moved faster than her. He avoided Mrs. Gu lightly, leaving half of the maids and lanterns behind, and left without looking back. Mrs. Gu was left kneeling on the spot, neither getting up nor walking.
It’s really hard to get off the tiger...
Gu Qiancheng didn't take Mrs. Gu's threat seriously at all. This was the backyard of the Gu family, not in the wedding hall. Let alone Mrs. Gu kneeling down for her, even if he died in front of her, the old man could suppress the matter if he wanted to.
Let Mrs. Gu die quietly.
This is the benefit of rights!
The old man didn't ask much about Gu Qiancheng's late arrival. It wasn't until Gu Qiancheng mentioned it after the meal that the old man knew that Mrs. Gu had knelt down for Gu Qiancheng.
The old man became angry immediately and called his servants: "Go and send a message to Madam. Just tell her what I said. If she wants to kneel down, she can kneel down as much as she can. She is not allowed to get up until dawn."
"yes."
After the servants left, Gu Qiancheng spoke to the old man and said, "Grandpa, my wife is the mother of the concubine of the Crown Prince of Chu. For the sake of King Zhao, I cannot embarrass my wife."
"Isn't it too late for you to tell me now?" The old man couldn't help laughing. The first person to embarrass Mrs. Gu was Gu Qiancheng himself.
"It's not too late. As long as the matter is suppressed, everything will be fine." Family scandals should not be made public. This is a rule that large families will consciously abide by since ancient times.
"Grandpa is not old yet." The backyard is a matter. He didn't want to take care of it before. Now that he has taken care of it, this kind of mistake will not happen again.
"Grandfather is wise." Gu Qiancheng praised generously.
The old man was very impressed. He stroked his beard and smiled until his eyes narrowed...
"By the way, Qiancheng, the Feng family's chief steward sent someone to bring a generous gift, and my grandfather accepted it. The Feng family's chief steward said, thanks to you today, he has been praising you for your medical skills. Even the imperial doctor said that you treated him well, so he was saved.
Save Feng Sijin's life." After the old man finished speaking, he kept staring at Gu Qiancheng. He always felt that Gu Qiancheng had something to hide from him.
"Grandpa, I said it was a coincidence, do you believe it?" Gu Qiancheng raised his eyes, his eyes sparkling like a little fox...
"Grandpa wants to believe it, but he is not old yet." The old man looked at Gu Qiancheng meaningfully and said softly: "You are the one who can heal Prince Chu, right?"
"Since grandpa knows, why bother asking again." Gu Qiancheng had no intention of hiding it, but...
"Why didn't you tell Grandpa beforehand?"
"Grandpa, I told you in advance, would you believe it?" Without a stage to show off, no one would believe in her strength.
"Grandpa is naturally..."
Before he could say the words "Believe you", he was interrupted by Gu Qiancheng: "Grandpa, although Qiancheng is small, he is not stupid."
You don’t believe it!
Yes, if the old man could know from the beginning that the person who cured Qin Yunchu was Qian Cheng, he would not believe it, let alone go to Prince Zhao's Mansion to seek justice.
Only because of Qin Jiyan's sign did the old man believe it...
