Gu Dezhao's carriage left Gu's house and headed towards Yushu Hutong where Si Yu's family was located. The snow was piled up several inches thick and the road was covered with ice, making it very difficult to walk. When we arrived at Yushu Hutong, we discovered that the dark door of the Sun family, which occupied a small half of the alley, was tightly closed, and the two red gauze lanterns hanging on the hood were blowing constantly from the north wind. Gu Dezhao got off the carriage and took a look and found that the stone steps at the door had not been cleared of snow.
He personally stepped forward and buckled the copper ring in the Qilin beast's mouth.
After a long time, the door creaked open. A head popped out of the room. It was an old man with a wrinkled face. He looked Gu Dezhao up and down with cautious and wary eyes. He saw that Gu Dezhao was wearing a velvet trousers and a silk skirt, and then he asked calmly: "Who are you looking for?"
Gu Dezhao frowned and asked him, "Is Mr. Sun at home?"
After hearing this, the old man said impatiently: "No, the master went out and didn't come back, so don't come and ask!"
He was about to close the door immediately, but was stopped by Manager Li, who was following Gu Dezhao, and said to him: "This is Mr. Gu, the doctor of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He has official business to see your Mr. Sun. Didn't he say that he was ill? You answer I took the name card and went to answer him, saying that Mr. Gu is here." He handed the name card to the old man and stuffed an ingot or two taels of silver into it.
The old man collected the money, but returned the name card, and said in a much better tone: "My little old man can't read big characters, and I can't understand it. Since the person here is an official, I would like to say something more, how about our master?" He didn¡¯t come back a few days ago. This can¡¯t be true. I watched him go out with my own eyes, but I never saw him come back The ladies and aunts in our house are not in a hurry, so we can just live behind closed doors. .¡±
Gu Dezhao felt that this man was inexplicable. When he heard his identity, he did not welcome him in. Instead, he stayed at the door and blew the north wind. That's all. He is illiterate. Could it be that there are no literate people in the house? What's wrong with finding someone to recognize a name card? Sun Shitao had been ill for several days, so how could he not be in the house?
If he is not in the house, where will he go?
"Go and ask the person in charge of the house to come out and answer." Gu Dezhao said to the old man.
But the old man lowered his voice: "I opened the door for you, but you didn't obey your orders. And you dared to call the steward over I see that the officer is not an ordinary person, so you should leave quickly!" After that, he quickly closed the door. No matter how many times Gu Dezhao knocked on the door, he still wouldn't open it.
Manager Li said: "Sir, this is indeed unusual. Even if Master Sun is not here, the people in the mansion look very strange! They seem to be afraid that we will go in What do you think we should do?"
Gu Dezhao breathed out lightly, "We have no reason to force our way in. Sun Shitao may have gone to the Yamen. Let's go to the capital to have a look" Manager Li agreed and was about to go to order the coachman, but Gu Dezhao changed his mind. "Forget it, even if he is not in the house, he will not be in the yamen. Go to the granary in Songlingfang, Daxing. He often visits the granary recently"
Songlingfang is not far from Yushu Hutong, on the boundary between Daxing and Shi'an.
The carriage then turned around and headed for Songlingfang.
Gu Jinchao came back after talking to his father. After thinking for a while, he took a copy of "Dongpo Notes" from Duobao Pavilion, flattened the note and put it in. This thing cannot be moved easily.
She practiced calligraphy in the study for a while. Mrs. Feng came to her and said that her eldest cousin Gu Jinhua had come with her husband's sister-in-law. She was the third lady of the Yu family in Cangzhou who was going to be the one to praise Gu Lian and the hairpin. She wanted Jin Chao to come over to see the gift. .
Jin Chao changed his clothes and went to Dongkuayuan.
" Gu Jinhua gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Yu family in the autumn. Now he has a transcendent status in the Yu family. If not for this, it is hard to say whether the Yu family would agree to let the third lady come over to be a complimentary person.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:???????????????????????????????????????? That Gu Jinhua wore a rose purple and gold engraved silk jacket, a lake-colored pure face horse-face skirt, a pair of charming gold hairpins, and a ruby ??the size of a fingernail embedded in it, making her look very bright. Seeing Gu Jinchao coming over, he smiled and pulled her to sit on Jin Zhu next to him, and said, "counting the days, I haven't seen Sister Lan in a year."
Mrs. Feng was filled with joy when she saw her eldest granddaughter coming back, and it was rare for her to be kind to everyone. Let the girl bring some refreshments. Then he said: "Sister Chao has returned to our home now. If you want to see her, just come back more often!"
Feng called Gu Jinchao over, pulled her and introduced her to a girl next to her with a smile: "This is your sister-in-law's cousin. She is older than you. Just follow Sister Lian and call her cousin Jinchao." Then he told Gu Jinchao: "your third sister, Mingying, is your cousin's mother-in-law's family."
Yu Mingying wears a brocade smoky red jacquard satin jacket and a pink and white stitched skirt. She looks fair and has clean and beautiful facial features. Wearing a string of crystal clear yellow tourmalines on her wrist, the price isVery good. She nodded and smiled at Jin Chao without saying anything intimate.
Gu Jinchao sat on the Jinzi next to Feng, drinking tea and saying nothing.
The second lady next to her was very pleased to see her eldest daughter. Compared to Gu Lian, Gu Jinhua really made her worry less.
Gu Lian even sat on the Luohan bed with him, holding Gu Jinhua's hand and saying, "I thought you would come back with my nephew in your arms!"
Gu Jinhua said: "Your nephew is only a few months old, and the weather is cold, so he can't go far If you want to see him, you might as well wait until Ji Li comes to live with me in Cangzhou. The eldest sister will definitely take good care of you." It's all right." She pinched Gu Lian's nose affectionately.
The second lady laughed and said, "I can't go with you! She will follow me to learn housekeeping after the hairpin ceremony. I'm afraid she will marry into the Yao family in a few months"
Gu Jinhua's eyes lit up and he asked Gu Lian in a low voice: "Is that true? Have you already decided on a date to welcome us?"
Mrs. Feng smiled with pride: "How can it be so fast! The Yao family also attaches great importance to this marriage. Everything must be well prepared. The day of the wedding has to wait until Sister Lian is old enough."
"Gu Lian's marriage is very shameless, and Feng likes to brag to others.
The most important thing is to tell Yu Mingying.
Yu Mingying followed Gu Jinhua to Gu's house and sat there drinking tea, which was neither cold nor hot. In her heart, she looked down on Gu Lian. Feng could feel Yu Mingying's lack of enthusiasm, but she was the sister-in-law of her eldest daughter's mother-in-law. If she was not well taken care of in the Gu family, Gu Jinhua would suffer if she went back and said a few words to Mrs. Yu about Gu Jinhua. So it's hard to say if she's dissatisfied.
Gu Jinchao glanced out of the corner of his eye and clearly saw a smile on the corner of Yu Mingying's mouth.
Yu Mingying raised her head and said calmly: "Yao Ge always has four sons. The eldest son won the Jinshi last year, and he was promoted to the Hanlin. The other three sons have not achieved much in their careers. I see pity. If my sister marries into the Yao family, she will still have a hard time!"
Gu Lian's marriage has always been flattered by everyone, but he had never heard such sharp words before. He immediately glared at Yu Mingying and said unconvinced: "They are both the sons of Mr. Yao Ge. After a famous family, how can they be so bad What is sister Mingying talking about!"
Yu Mingying curled her lips. She was the youngest legitimate daughter in the Yu family and the most favored one. She was willing to come to Gu's house to give her sister-in-law face, after all, her sister-in-law was usually very nice to her. She didn't like the way she looked at Gu Lian, and she spoiled him so much that he had no rules.
"I'm sorry for overthinking my sister, I just said it casually." She said to Gu Jinhua, "Sister-in-law, you know I am outspoken!"
Feng¡¯s face darkened, and she was about to have an attack.
"I have never seen anyone dare to ridicule their precious granddaughter in front of her, and even the Yao family ridiculed her. Isn't this just mocking her!"
This girl from the Yu family has a really sharp personality.
Feng suppressed the anger in her heart and said with a smile: "Sister Ying is such an outspoken person. I like her just looking at her. We are all members of the same family, so there is nothing to say." Gu Jinhua also wants to be the eldest daughter-in-law of the Yu family. , it would be difficult if Yu Mingying secretly stumbled her.
This Yu Mingying also has a tough personality. Everyone Gu Lian meets gives way to her, and she will suffer a loss now. Gu Jinchao thought to himself that she was just drinking tea and not having anything to do with herself. She couldn't make herself uncomfortable in front of Mr. Feng at this time.
At this time, the little girl¡¯s voice came from outside through the curtain: ¡°¡ Madam, the third master sent someone to look for Miss Cang.¡±
Father is looking for her? It was probably time to inquire about Master Si Yu's condition. Jin Chao glanced at Feng.
Feng Shi nodded casually: "Since it is your father who is looking for you, you should go first."
Jin Chao performed the blessing ceremony and exited, only to see Gu Dezhao standing in the yard, with snow falling on his shoulders and a pale face.
"My father came to Dongkuoyuan, but he didn't even have time to say hello to his grandmother?"
Gu Jinchao's heart tightened, and he quickly stepped forward and asked, "Father, are you in a hurry?"
Gu Dezhao simply didn¡¯t know how to speak. He opened his mouth and his voice was tight and urgent: "Sister Chao, please quickly find Cao Ziheng The granary in Daxing Something happened to the granary!"
He originally wanted to go to the granary in Songlingfang to find Sun Shitao, but when he entered the granary and took a look, he found that there was not a single ghost inside. Gu Dezhao felt something was wrong, so he and Manager Li opened a sack and took a look. The sack that was supposed to contain millet was actually filled with bran!
This batch of grain was about to be shipped to Shanxi for disaster relief, but something like this happened. If the people who come to move the food in a few days wait to lift it, they will soon find out that the weight is wrong. By then, he will not be able to escape responsibility. Even if he is not beheaded, he will inevitably be dismissed from office and exiled!
Gu Dezhao touched more than ten sacks, but they were all filled with bran. His back was soaked with cold sweat. If there's something wrong with the food for disaster relief If you're not careful, you may lose your life! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)??Beheading, dismissal from office and exile are inevitable!
