Gu Qiancheng's dowry was too much. Not to mention that her foot was injured, even if her foot was fine, she couldn't sort it out by herself. Gu Qiancheng could only check it according to the list to make sure that nothing was missing.
Speaking of which, this can be regarded as Gu Qiancheng's good luck. Mrs. Gu moved all Gu Qiancheng's mother's dowry out with the intention of preparing a dowry for her daughter, leaving only a lot more stuff.
"It's far more than one million taels, I've earned it." After spending a day, Gu Qiancheng checked the list and asked Sun's mother to put away the calligraphy and painting books. As for the antiques and jewelry, Gu Qiancheng took a look at them.
Just one glance and you can let them pile up there.
Although the things were in her hands, it was still a question of whether she could keep them. Among the pile of things, only the calligraphy and paintings were small in size and high in value. No matter what, she would hide them first. As for the others, she would not be able to cash them in a short time.
, put it aside first and then talk about it...
Mrs. Gu has been busy taking care of Qianxue recently, and with the old man as her guarantee, she will not dare to trouble Gu Qiancheng in the short term. The dowry matter is not urgent. The top priority is to go to the old man and get the "Yi Guo Zhi"
The matter must be settled, otherwise she will be kicked out of the Gu family, even if she has gold and silver, she will not be able to take her away.
Gu Qiancheng yawned and saw that it was still early, so he planned to drink a bowl of tea to wake up. She used to rely on coffee to wake up when she was busy at work, but now that there is no coffee, she can only drink tea.
Just as Sun's mother brought the tea, she saw the mother from the old man's yard coming over, respectfully greeting Gu Qiancheng, and said, "Miss, the old man is awake and wants to see you."
Although the old man was bedridden these days, he knew all the big and small things in the house. He knew that Gu Qiancheng had looked for him on the day Prince Zhao came, but no one was there. He thought that Gu Qiancheng had received
Dowry would go to him again and beg him to take care of her, but she didn't want Gu Qiancheng to make any move at all.
"He is a smart and calm child." Because of Qianxue's incident, Mr. Gu was very disappointed with his son, so he set his sights on his grandchildren, hoping to cultivate a grandson to support the family in his lifetime.
But since he couldn't be in a hurry to raise his grandson, Mr. Gu first set his sights on Gu Qiancheng. He wanted to see how capable this neglected granddaughter was.
Gu Qiancheng was helped in, and Mrs. Gu was helped up by others. It can be said that the two of them are in the same boat. Mr. Gu did not embarrass Gu Qiancheng. After calling the servants out, he asked Gu Qiancheng to come in.
Sit down on the bed.
Gu Qiancheng did not refuse. After thanking him, he sat down by the bed with a generous manner and a natural expression. Old Mrs. Gu nodded with satisfaction: "Qiancheng, I heard from my servant that you came to see my grandfather two days ago, but something happened?"
Mr. Gu is an old man, and he will definitely not ask for something from his grandson. He has many ways to get Gu Qiancheng to hand it over voluntarily.
"Yes, grandpa." Gu Qiancheng just sat down and then stood up with a respectful attitude: "Grandpa, my granddaughter came to grandpa to apologize to him."
"Excuse me?" Mr. Gu's heart skipped a beat, and he suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and asked, "What happened?"
As soon as Gu Qiancheng stood in a group, he found that standing on one leg was too tiring. To show his sincerity, Gu Qiancheng simply knelt down. This time he knelt down, the uneasiness in Old Man Gu's heart became stronger, and his breathing became a little rapid, hiding in the darkness.
His face was older and more gray than before.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn, but Gu Qiancheng was unaffected. He lowered his head and said, "Grandpa, my granddaughter asked her mother to give her grandfather a gift, but she didn't want her to accidentally leave half of it behind."
When Gu Qiancheng said this, he paused for a moment. He noticed that Mr. Gu's breath had become much calmer, and then Gu Qiancheng continued: "My granddaughter wanted to send it to my grandfather before leaving home, but she didn't want to..."
"What don't you want?" Gu Qiancheng's turn made Mr. Gu's heart lift again, and his cloudy eyes gained a trace of eagerness and worry.
Gu Qiancheng buried his head even lower and said with a choked voice: "But when my granddaughter came to see my grandfather that night, she passed by a small pond and was pushed down."
After speaking, Gu Qiancheng raised his head and glanced at Old Mrs. Gu timidly. Old Mrs. Gu's old and gloomy face looked extremely scary in the darkness. Gu Qiancheng lowered his head quickly, as if he was frightened.
Mr. Gu has no intention of caring about Gu Qiancheng's life and death at this time. He only wants to know: "Where are the things?"
"Falled into the water." Gu Qiancheng looked frustrated, but managed to cheer up and said: "When my granddaughter fell into the water, she found that there was another person in the water. The granddaughter didn't know who the other person was. She was about to call for help, but was pressed down by that person.
While in the water, the granddaughter vaguely heard her father looking for someone, but the situation was so urgent that the granddaughter couldn't guarantee whether she was at fault."
Gu Qiancheng vaguely mentioned Qin Jiyan's identity and secretly glanced at Mr. Gu. Seeing that his expression had softened a lot, Gu Qiancheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My granddaughter doesn't know what will happen next. When my granddaughter wakes up,
When I arrived, he was already on the bed and his belongings were gone."
Gu Qiancheng said the last sentence very quietly. She believed that Mr. Gu would be able to figure it out automatically due to his intelligence...
"You, you... idiot. How could the Gu family raise such a stupid child like you?" Old Mrs. Gu's heart was filled with a breath, and he almost didn't recover. By the time Gu Qiancheng finished speaking, Old Mrs. Gu was trembling with anger.
How happy Mr. Gu was before, now he is so angry.
When the other half of "Yi Guo Zhi" fell into the water, there were only two possibilities. One was that it was soaked and destroyed by the water; the other possibility was that it fell into the hands of that person. No matter which possibility it was, Gu Mansion could not produce the complete "Yi Guo Zhi"
Chronicles of the Yi Kingdom.
Sigh... The Gu family should forget about the contribution of "Zhi of Yi". They only have half a copy of "Zhi of Yi", and the old man would not dare to send it to death and arouse the emperor's suspicion.
The great achievements are right in front of you, but now there is nothing. Thinking of this, the old man's visit to Gu Qiancheng becomes even more unpleasant.
He only gave half a copy. Why didn't Mr. Gu understand Gu Qiancheng's thoughts? He didn't care about his granddaughter's cleverness at first, but now he just thinks that this child is petty and not grand at all. Indeed, as the boss said, he doesn't know how to bring honor to the family at all.
, and make plans for yourself.
Old Mr. Gu felt as if his flesh had been cut out, and he was filled with hatred. The look in his eyes as he looked at Gu Qiancheng revealed an indescribable disgust and anger...
Gu Qiancheng knew in her heart that compared with "Yi Guozhi", her granddaughter was really nothing. Old Mrs. Gu had no kindness towards him, and she did not need to treat Old Mrs. Gu as her own grandfather. She only needed to be respected by Old Mrs. Gu.
It's good to have protection, even if this protection is based on calculations and interests.
Gu Qiancheng raised his head and glanced at Old Mrs. Gu secretly. Seeing that his breathing was gradually relaxing, knowing that the opportunity had come, Gu Qiancheng raised his head and bit his lip, looking like he was hesitant to speak...
Mr. Gu already despised Gu Qiancheng, but now that he saw her acting like a little bitch, he became even more angry. If it weren't for the bad reputation of killing his own granddaughter, he would have wanted to kill Gu Qiancheng.
"What are you still doing kneeling here? Get out." Mr. Gu shouted sternly, his eyes cold.
Obviously there is no need to care about what the old man does to him, but Gu Qiancheng's heart still can't help but ache. Gu Qiancheng took a deep breath, lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "Grandpa, don't be angry, it's Qiancheng's fault, you must never
Don't be so angry that you can punish a thousand cities."
"Hmph..." Mr. Gu didn't even look at Gu Qiancheng. He opened his mouth and asked his servants to drag Gu Qiancheng away: "Here comes..."
But as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard Gu Qiancheng say: "Grandpa, I met His Highness King Qin when I was leaving Qiancheng today. His Highness the King of Qin asked me if I would like to enter the Prince of Qin's Mansion. He said that if Grandpa agreed, he would take me into the Qin Palace."
Prince's Mansion."
Gu Qiancheng's words had no beginning and no end, and no one who was a little stupid could understand them. However, Gu Qiancheng believed that Mr. Gu, who had been immersed in officialdom for decades, would definitely understand the meaning of her words, or Qin Jiyan.
