Back To My Husband’s Youth - Chapter 84
Gu Wuyou originally worried that Zhao Chengyou would have other actions in the follow-up.
But he didn’t expect that since that day, he hadn’t been at home again, nor had he looked for her again. Even at the academy, the two had never met again. He met Yin Xu once by chance and was stared at him. At a glance, nothing else was too much.
Although she always felt that it was impossible for Zhao Chengyou to give up like this, she did not spend too much time on this matter.
Yu Gong.
Her family has made it clear to Zhao Chengyou that in the future, the marriage of men and women will be irrelevant.
Yu private.
She also told people clearly that if he really wanted to pull Li Qinyuan into the water, she couldn’t let him go.
Zhao Chengyou is a smart person, knowing what is good for him and what is bad for him, he will not be so stupid, and he will really follow her to the point where the net is broken.
He will only slowly try to make sure that his own interests will not be harmed.
But now Gu Wuyou doesn’t know what he is going to do, not to mention that Mrs. Li’s birthday is approaching, and she really doesn’t have the intention to pay attention to Zhao Chengyou.
It was the birthday of Mrs. Li in a blink of an eye.
There is still a vast amount of white snow in the sky. This snow has not stopped for several days. It has covered the entire capital city in silver. From a distance, it looks like a snow city. As for the inner courtyards of the large houses, it is even more unnecessary. said.
The masters may not feel anything, but they are exhausted by those old women and little servants, and they don’t know how many times they have to clean up every day.
Like Dingguo’s other courtyards, they are well regulated. They must be cleaned three times a day, and the masters must be able to walk easily. However, Gu Wuyou has established rules not to destroy the original appearance, and only draw a trail. For people to walk, other trees and eaves are not allowed to be touched.
It’s still early.
After Gu Wuyou finished his breakfast, he asked Bai Lu to take things, and then went to the yard where Mrs. Gu lived.
When I got there, Mrs. Gu was still having breakfast. Gu Wuyou changed a pair of soft-soled shoes in the house and walked in. Perhaps because of the cold weather, even Gu Yu didn’t come. Only her old man sat alone in the room, served by a group of maids and women.
Mrs. Gu is very well-mannered, and the maids and women underneath are very submissive with bowed eyebrows.
Seeing her go in, Mrs. Gu just raised her eyelashes and said nonchalantly, “Here.”
Gu Wuyou has never been accustomed to getting along with her grandmother. She is also an elder. Her grandmother is also a stern master to the outside world. Everyone is afraid of her. But in front of her, her grandmother is always kind and kind. She tells stories, takes her to do many things herself, even teaches her to read and write, and accompanies her to cut window papers and turn flowers.
No matter what she does, her grandmother will always praise her with a smile.
But grandmother won’t.
–
Her grandmother is like a Bodhisattva in a temple, always with such a calm expression, even she doesn’t seem to have too much expression when she fights against the younger sister who is under her lap.
So Gu Wuyou was afraid of her.
Because of fear, they are even more reluctant to approach.
But maybe it’s because of the re-lived life, now that I see my grandmother again, Gu Wuyou has already
I’m not so afraid of her as I used to be… Actually, thinking about it carefully, my grandmother treats her very well.
In her previous life, she had trouble with Zhao Chengyou so ugly, and her grandmother didn’t say anything about her.
Later, Li Qinyuan asked to marry her, and her grandmother did not only care about prosperity and wealth like the elders in other residences. Seeing that Li Qinyuan was in high authority, she sent her out directly, but called her to the front and asked her what she meant before agreeing.
Now it is too–
Zhao Chengyou came to the door. As an elder, Haosheng met with people, and she was also polite and clear with others to avoid her worries.
Gu Wuyou no longer thinks about things anymore. In the past, she felt that others treated her well or not, but she could see at a glance, but now she knows that there are many people and many temperaments in this world.
Some people are kind to you, behave incisively and vividly, and don’t hide the least, such as her grandmother and father.
But there are many people who may look as if they don’t care about you at all, don’t care about you, but will protect you without you knowing it… such as grandmother and Jiufei.
They are all people who care about her, but they care about her in a different way.
After seeing Gu Wuyou coming in, Mrs. Gu kept standing stupidly at the door, and finally couldn’t help but ask, “What do you stand there for? You came so early, have you eaten?”
Mother Xie beside her also smiled and said, “I have a lot of breakfast today. If the fifth girl hasn’t eaten, she will accompany the old lady to use some.”
Gu Wuyou has already recovered. She pressed those feelings to the bottom of her heart, and walked over with a smile when she heard the words, “I have eaten some, thinking that you have delicious dumplings, I dare not eat more.”
“Quickly, get another tableware for Girl Five.”
Mother Xie turned her head and told the maid next to her. When the maid took it over, she originally wanted to put her in the position opposite to Mrs. Gu. How could she have thought that the five girls who saw the old lady before were like cats and mice. Today, she sat next to the old lady, still smiling.
The movement of the hand paused.
Yu Guang went to see the old lady. Seeing that she looked a little surprised but didn’t say anything, Mother Xie didn’t say anything, and smiled and passed the bowls and chopsticks in her hands.
Gu Wuyou let someone wipe her hands, rinse her mouth again, and then sit next to Mrs. Gu and eat breakfast.
Even if there is one more of her, the house still looks like the previous quiet. The maid and the old-in-law are clothed in silence, and she somehow feels that her grandmother is so deserted and a bit pitiful.
–
Can’t help holding a small dumpling and putting it in front of her.
Seeing her grandmother’s action of drinking porridge, her gaze looked faintly at her. Gu Wuyou was not afraid, and she curled her eyes and smiled with others, “Grandma can’t just drink porridge in the morning. Today we have to go out. You can eat more.”
The maids and women in the room were a little surprised to see this look, even Mother Xie was the same, Mrs. Gu didn’t have any extra expressions on her face, and just looked at her, and then softly “hmm” after a long time. Screamed.
I really ate that Xiaolongbao.
Gu Wuyou laughed happily. She was actually full early, and she would just eat a few small dumplings, and then she would just take care of the dishes, and she would say, “This side dish tastes good.” , The most suitable porridge, grandma try it.”
“This shrimp cake is also delicious, it’s not greasy at all. You wrapped the side dish just now, it tastes unique.”
…
The main courtyard that has been quiet for so many years, today is like a little Huang Ying, talking non-stop.
Mrs. Gu has taken care of her for most of her life. The people underneath are either afraid of her or respect her, or Gu Yu, who has been raised under her knees since childhood, has also been living more and more pure-hearted over the years, and now she suddenly encounters someone who is so unreasonable. The granddaughter who played the cards was stunned by herself.
In the past, she only had to look at Gu Wuyou, her granddaughter would bow her head in fear.
But today I don’t know what’s going on, but I’m not afraid at all, and no matter what the “don’t speak” rules, Mrs. Gu was reluctant to refuse at first looking at the watery eyes, but later, she couldn’t refuse. .
Finally finished breakfast.
She actually drank half a bowl of porridge more than usual during this meal, not as any other snacks.
Mrs. Gu sat in silence for a long while, but Mother Xie and others beside her were very happy.
Gu Wuyou was also happy. While they were taking the things down, she smiled and said with others, “Grandma, I brought you a present.”
Ok?
gift?
Mrs. Gu raised her eyes and glanced at the person, but did not speak.
“I made three wipes, one for my grandmother, one for you, and one for the old lady of the Li family…” Gu Wuyou said as he took the one that belonged to Mrs. Gu from Bailu. The first time I gave this kind of embroidery to my grandmother, who had never been very enthusiastic, she herself was a little nervous.
The thin white fingers pinched the two corners, smiling shyly, “I don’t embroider well, don’t laugh.”
Gu Wuyou’s words are not really self-effacing. Although her current female celebrity is a lot more diligent than in the past, big families like them all have embroidered mothers at home and wear them on weekdays. Used to those embroiderers, she is naturally not good in comparison.
But Mrs. Gu was a little dumbfounded.
She looked down at the dark purple embroidered lotus pattern on the forehead in Gu Wuyou’s hand. Although it wasn’t very clever, it was better than the fine stitches and clean patterns. Especially this pattern was her favorite.
After getting accustomed to small collections of Gu Wuyou’s exquisite and gorgeous gifts, when she suddenly received such a gift, Mrs. Gu couldn’t tell what emotion it was for a while.
She is not good at dealing with juniors, so she can only say a few words quietly, “Good end, what is it to give?”
Gu Wuyou now sees her grandmother’s temperament and knows that she is cold outside and hot inside. He is not discouraged at all. Instead, he smiles: “Send outsiders have to choose time, and give it to grandmother. It’s your heart. Naturally, you can send it any time.”
Mrs. Gu didn’t know what to say anymore, she spent most of her life sternly
On weekdays, in addition to being gentle with Gu Yu, he has always been rigid and unapproachable to others… The scene can’t help but feel a little cold.
Mother Xie took the wiping forehead with a smile, “The fifth girl’s craftsmanship is getting better now. A few days ago, the old lady still said that the wiping forehead that she used to wear in the past was dirty, and was about to embroider underneath. only.”
“Unexpectedly, you sent it today. It can be seen that the grandparents and grandchildren have the aura.”
Naturally, she was a kind words, but no one would expose her, “Old lady, this forehead matches your clothes today, don’t you just wear this now?”
Old Madam Gu glanced, did not say a word, nodded briefly, but agreed.
–
Just as Grandma Xie was about to wear it for someone with a smile, Gu Wuyou volunteered: “Grandma, I will wear it for you.” After Mrs. Gu nodded and agreed, she cleaned her hands again, walked over, and showed people carefully. Put it on.
This is the first time I have been so close to my granddaughter.
Old Mrs. Gu is a little uncomfortable. It happened that the maid came over with the bronze mirror. She saw that her usual stereotyped face in the mirror was a little unsustainable, and she didn’t wait for others to ask her if she was “good”, waved her hand and said: ” Okay, take it down.”
He said again, “It’s almost the hour, get ready to go out.”
The Li’s house in the official residence of the State of Wei is in Jingzi Alley.
Unlike the titles they inherited from generations of feats, the Li family is an industry created by Li Censhen’s single-handed efforts.
Li Cencan’s father, that is, Mrs. Li’s husband, was nothing more than an ordinary historian. In this capital city where there are four rank officials and lords everywhere, his Li family is really nothing.
But who would have thought that such an ordinary Li family would produce a Li Cen Shen.
Li Cencan did not choose the imperial examination path like the other sons, but joined the military camp. He was also lucky. As soon as he joined the military camp, there was a big battle. And because he saved Yang Shun, the general at the time, he became a stranger. The soldier jumped into General Yang’s confidant.
Then in the next few years-
He became more and more famous in the battles, and later he captured the leader of the Turks alive, allowing the Turks to return to the Great Zhou. It can be said that for so many years, no one dares to commit crimes in the surrounding area, and he has an inseparable relationship with Li Censhen.
Now Li Cencan has become the well-known Wei Guogong of the Great Zhou, and he has a brave and combative Li family army under him, which is really majestic and majestic.
…
The carriage stopped at the gate of Wei Guogong’s mansion.
The snowy road was slippery. They spent a lot of time all the way. When they raised the curtains, there were many carriages parked outside. They were all people who came to congratulate Mrs. Li on her birthday. There were still people standing in front of the door, who was forty. More than a man, seeing the “Gu” family sign hanging outside their carriage, hurriedly greeted them.
Outside respectfully, he said: “Old lady, Princess Leping, it’s windy and snowy outside. It’s better for you two to sit in the carriage for a while, and the small one will bring the sedan chair over.”
Mrs. Gu glanced at Gu Wuyou, asking her what she meant.
Gu Wuyou said: “I listen to my grandmother.”
Mrs. Gu said to the people outside, “As with others, so do we, don’t have to be so extravagant and troublesome.”
“This…” The butler slightly
Hesitate.
Mother Xie, Bai Lu and others have gotten out of the carriage. Some held umbrellas, some held footstools, and some held a stove to handle things. After a few breaths of work, they were all done, waiting to serve the two masters. After getting off the carriage, except Hou who was holding the umbrella, the others followed behind.
in this way.
The butler was not good to say anything, and walked in to meet them personally.
Li Cenchen was 27 years old when he bestowed the nobleman. In a place like the capital, although his majesty gave the mansion, it is still a little different from the aristocratic families that have been inherited over a century.
, But the Li family is small, this four-entry house is enough.
In recent years, the Li family has more money, and bought the house next door. After opening the Moon Gate, if there are any guests staying, they will ask someone to live there.
Gu Wuyou was actually not familiar with the house at his feet.
After she married Li Qinyuan, Wei Guogong and Mrs. Li died one after another. Only Yin Wan and her only son lived in this house. She and Li Qinyuan lived in the next house.
Except at the end of the year, they didn’t communicate very much, and even the moon gate was opened and the key was dropped.
But even if she is no longer familiar with it, she still remembers the little things here, especially when she thinks that the yard next to it is the residence where she and the general have lived for many years, her emotions are a little bit unbearable.
Look to the side from time to time.
Seeing that she had been looking aside, Mrs. Gu couldn’t help asking, “What are you looking at?”
Gu Wuyou naturally couldn’t tell her what was in his heart, so he laughed and said, “Although the Li family is not big, the scenery in the yard is pretty good.”
Mother Xie, who was beside her, smiled and replied: “Five girls have sharp eyes. The courtyard of the Li family can be regarded as the only one in our capital. Your Majesty praised Wei Guogong a lot. After a while, I hired a skilled craftsman from the south of the Yangtze River, so the layout here also follows the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.”
Gu Wuyou nodded and smiled: “That’s it.”
In fact, she knew this a long time ago, but others didn’t know that after she married Li Qinyuan, the yard next door where few people lived was renovated even better than the famous Wei State Palace in the capital.
Li Qinyuan opened a trickling river for her, and it was planted with lotus flowers.
In the summer, he would row her raft personally and take her to pick lotus. They walked in the river full of lotus. Underneath were the koi that appeared from time to time. If she was tired from picking lotus, she went to He took a trip to his arms and closed his eyes to smell the fragrance of the lotus.
He also planted many plum blossoms for her.
In winter, they would pick plum blossoms with her, pick green plums, and make green plum wine with her. They would also bury green plum wine under the pomegranate tree in the yard together and wait for the next year to drink.
There are many, many…
“Princess, here.” Bai Lu reminded in a low voice from the side.
Just as Gu Wuyou raised his eyes, he saw a familiar figure standing outside. That person was Wei Guogong’s current wife, Yin Wan.
She is thirty-five and six this year, and her appearance is not particularly outstanding.
In the previous life, Gu Wuyou and Yin Wan had no contact.
Li Qinyuan never called her mother. Naturally, she never called her mother-in-law. The only time she was more impressed was the day after she married Li Qinyuan.
When she and Li Qinyuan came to burn incense for her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Yin Wan said that to her.
She said, “Leping, when I married Grandpa Guo, Qilang had grown up. I didn’t give him any thoughts. You don’t need to treat me as a mother-in-law. You only have one mother-in-law, and that is the death of an immortal. Shen’s.”
These people who have lived with her belong to Li Qinyuan’s relatives.
After a lifetime, she finally saw it again.
