Blissful Days After Widowhood - Chapter 91
This astronomical master came earlier than him, and the two immediately met head-to-head and talked.
When Emperor Zheng Yuan came over, he heard Gu Yezheng praise: “Uncle’s great literary talent, I knew I was thinking well, the most exciting part of “The Merry”— You wrote the song about my spicy hot pot!”
I just heard his mother say it in private, the words about the spicy hot pot are so real, it’s like the person who wrote this aria has not only eaten it, but also liked it very much.
Afterwards, he heard Emperor Zhengyuan mention it again, saying that he initiated the Hanlin scholar to write the playbook, and then offered to let Master Wen be Mr. Gu Ye, obviously he still had a lot to do with Master Wen. Points are important.
After contacting each other, Gu Ye naturally guessed it.
Master Wen is an introverted person, but he couldn’t help but twitch his mouth when he heard this.
“Your Highness is polite, and the lower officials dare not be called ‘uncle’ from His Highness.”
Gu Ye nodded with a smile: “You are doing it for my own good, I save it, but in private, I still like to call you like before.”
Master Wen was coaxed into a smile on his face, and said, “If your Highness thinks it’s okay, then I’ll continue…”
Before he finished speaking, Master Wen saw Emperor Zhengyuan coming, and immediately got up and saluted.
Emperor Zhengyuan entered the hall and asked him to excuse himself from the ceremony, and asked, “It depends on what you were discussing yesterday. What are you planning?”
Gu Ye explained: “It’s not a big deal, it’s because I thought of a new play, please Mr. Xiaowen to help polish the pen.”
Emperor Zheng Yuan was stunned.
A dignified Hanlin bachelor, and now he is the prince’s husband.
Although Gu Ye is the prince, he has already worshipped Master Wen as his teacher yesterday, so there is no need for Master Wen to listen to the students.
Gu Ye smiled and said, “Master Wen knows that I am filial. Both grandmas love watching dramas, so I wrote it for them.”
Yes, it turned out to be the same reason that Emperor Zhengyuan used before.
This is the first time that this reason can deceive people. Later, Lucky Theatre and Shiweitian made a lot of money because of this play, but no one will believe that this play is only for honoring the elders .
But since Master Wen is willing to write for him, Emperor Zhengyuan doesn’t say anything.
But later in private, Emperor Zhengyuan still muttered to Gu Ye, “Didn’t you just ask me to help you think about it? Why did you discuss it directly with Mr. Xiaowen this time?”
Gu Yexin said, this is called direct connection without middlemen to make the difference, his mother taught it before.
Although Emperor Zhengyuan was not a middleman, he could naturally omit the middle step since he knew who made the playbook.
Of course I can’t say this, Gu Ye frowned and said: “I didn’t know your identity before, so I trouble you for this trivial matter. Now I know you’re so busy – recently, I went to court every day. It’s half the morning, and there are still unfinished documents in the back.”
As he spoke, he held his forehead and sighed again, “If I advise you to rest, you won’t listen, it will make me sad.”
Emperor Zheng Yuan laughed loudly, “How come there are more expressions than people singing. It’s really impossible for people to take you!”
Gu Ye also laughed and asked, “Since you asked, can I take up a little of your time and talk about the content of the playbook?”
Emperor Zheng Yuan is indeed busy, but no matter how busy he is, he still has to eat, so I use the time of eating the morning meal to chat with him slowly.
…
When Gu Yin arrived at Qingshi Yashe that day, Mrs. Lu and others had already arrived.
The crowd didn’t talk and laugh as usual, but lowered their voices.
As soon as she came up, everyone stopped talking.
Gu Yin noticed it, thinking that it was mostly a private matter, she said: “I made a new dessert, called double skin milk, the method is similar to Jiang Zhuang milk, but the taste is slightly different Please have a taste.”
Light Food Yashe has already had many new things since its opening, and Gu Yin often brings out new things from time to time.
However, whether new or used, there is quality assurance.
Even the tortoise ointment, which was unacceptable when it opened, after Mrs. Wen Er and others tried it with the attitude of trying, they all realized what Gu Yin said about nourishing yin and reducing dryness Function, and I like it very much, I have to eat a cup every few days.
Every time a new product is launched, Gu Yin will invite everyone to taste it. If they give opinions according to their own tastes, then when they order again next time, Gu Yin will carefully adjust them according to personal tastes.
So Mrs. Lu looked at a few handkerchiefs and waved her over.
“There has been a rumor in the past two days, and it has been rumored in the streets.” Mrs. Lu said, “It’s about the Duke of Lu and your family.”
Gu Yin does not hold her own identity when she walks outside, but the female guests of Yashe are either rich or expensive. There is no deliberate concealment, so everyone naturally knows.
Gu Yin said seriously, “Madam, please speak.”
Mrs. Lu went on to say: “There are rumors outside that before Mrs. Lu joined the army as a cook, she was an orphan without a parent and a mother, and was bought into a juggling team, relying on pleasure. People are asking for a living. It is also rumored that this news is … released by your family. “
Gu Yin was stunned, Madam Lu carefully looked at her face, and seeing that she really only knew, she exhaled: “We naturally believe that you are not that kind of person, usually everyone drinks After drinking, your words and deeds are indifferent. If you are really such a person, the outside world would not know what to say about us. “
Gu Yin frowned and said: “My family and the Duke of Lu are indeed at odds, but they won’t do such nasty things. And how do outsiders know about this kind of thing? Are you saying it’s news released by my family?”
Mrs. Lu explained to her again: “It was said that Mrs. Lu Guogong went to Banyuean two days ago to pray for blessings, and your old lady also went to the nunnery that day.”
Here, Gu Yin understood.
This past is nothing in Gu Yin’s eyes, knowing that, at most, she sighs that Chen’s fate is tragic. But Mrs. Chen has now become the wife of the Duke of Lu, and in the eyes of a wealthy family, these are disgraceful things. Chen’s is for his son, and he will not mention those to others. But people will naturally not hide in front of gods and Buddhas, and they will definitely explain everything.
My mother-in-law went to pray for blessings on the same day as her, and rumors spread immediately afterward. It was indeed a coincidence.
“My mother is a person I know, even if she hears anything, she will not say anything. That day, when I went to pray for blessings and met Mrs. Lu Guogong, she didn’t mention it specially when she got home. Not to mention the words that I heard spread throughout the capital. Thank you for your reminders, I’ll go check this matter carefully.”
This matter is really troublesome. If we don’t find out, it will naturally lead to a deeper hatred with the Duke of Lu. It’s not that they are afraid of the Duke of Lu, but there is no need to back it up. This black pot, secondly, Madam Lu has a good relationship with her, so she is naturally willing to trust her, but what about others?
If you really want to make people feel that they are the kind of people who talk nonsense, who dares to talk and chat while eating for the sky?
After thanking her, Gu Yin went downstairs to make the dessert.
In the afternoon, Gu Yin stopped work early for this matter and went home.
She first told Wang the ins and outs, and Wang knew that she was wronged.
“I really want to have that kind of heart, I also go to that old goddess, what should I do to make her daughter-in-law difficult? When I came out of her, I saw that the maid and servant were standing a few steps away from her, I was afraid that the old goddess knew that I was talking to her and scolding her, and left immediately without saying anything.”
Gu Yin handed the tea cup to her hand, “Mom, don’t worry, I naturally know what you are, I don’t blame you, I just ask about your situation at that time. , when Mrs. Lu Guogong prayed for blessings, could anyone else hear her?”
Wang drank a sip of tea and recalled carefully: “It was a bad day, if it wasn’t for the indebtedness to Miss Shen in front of our house, I would not have left the city in that weather. There were very few Japanese people, except me, the little nun from Banyue Nunnery, and the servants of the Duke of Lu, but they were not too close.”
The more Wang shi said, the quieter she became. If she hadn’t done it, she would have felt suspicious.
She regretted: “I knew this would happen, and I left as soon as I recognized her. I shouldn’t listen to it anymore. Alas, although it was close at the time, I prayed The words of the gods and Buddhas, she said in a very low voice, similar to raving, and they were the most private matters of others. How could I listen carefully and inquire? I only listened to one ear about being abducted, the wharf, the juggling class, etc. , I consciously didn’t listen to her later, I just sighed in my heart that she was pitiful. If I knew this, I should have…”
“Wait, mother!” Gu Yin suddenly interrupted Wang’s words: “What abduction, what port?”
Wang was a little stunned by his drink and asked, “What’s the matter? It’s what she said. I only heard these words.”
Gu Yin walked around the house several times, and after calming down, she said, “Mother still remember Uncle Ge and Aunt Ge?”
“Why don’t you remember? We only left the town for half a year, when we set up a stall on the pier earlier…” Speaking of which, Mrs Wang stood up, “You mean… “
Gu Yin nodded, “Although I know it’s unlikely, but there is a saying that no coincidence is a book, our Xiaoye is still the child before Qingyi, and such coincidences have really happened. So. I think it’s possible!”
The old couple of the Ge family are far away in Hanshan Town, and there is no way to verify it, and if they are only in the conjecture stage, they will ask about it. I was afraid that in the end, I would give the old man false hope, especially Uncle Ge who had worked hard at the dock for all these years, and his health was not very good.
The fastest and most convenient way, of course, is to ask Chen directly to see how much she remembers when she was a child, and whether she can match the number with the Ge family.
But the rumors have come out. It is not an exaggeration to say that the relationship between the two is like water and fire. And even if she didn’t misunderstand, this stall must have been locked up by the Qin family, and she would not be released from the house.
How can I get in touch with Chen?
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were worried when Gu Ye ran into the mansion from outside, shouting, “Feng Yu, don’t deceive people too much!”
In the blink of an eye, Feng Yu chased after him aggressively, “Your family dares to make up such rumors, I won’t teach you that you are not worthy of being a son of man.”
The two made a lot of noise at the door, and the concierge rushed to pass the message.
Gu Yin and Wang hurried out, Gu Ye had already run in, and Feng Yu was chasing after.
The servants in the house surrounded him, but although Feng Yu was young, his martial arts skills were not low, and he knew his family background was prominent by looking at his clothes, so the servants did not dare to do anything, only dared to stop him on.
“Misunderstanding!” Wang hurriedly rushed over to block Gu Ye.
However, Wang’s expectation that Feng Yu’s fight did not happen, Feng Yu did not move, Gu Ye urged his servants: “What are you doing standing up stupid? Close the door!”
The servants were as dazed as Mr. Wang, so they did as he said.
Gu Ye then pulled Wang Shi and whispered in her ear, “Don’t worry, it’s fake, we don’t want to fight.”
More than a quarter of an hour ago, Gu Ye came out of the palace early, thinking of putting it in the playbook of food for the sky, and I don’t know if Feng Yu came to pick it up.
Passing Taibai Street, he asked the driver to stop, and he got out of the car.
After asking the shopkeeper Zhou, Gu Ye learned that Feng Yu had never come back, and he felt a little strange, but he didn’t think much about it.
Then he left the restaurant and met Feng Yu head-on.
Feng Yu stood in a dilemma at the intersection of Taibai Street.
But Qin Shi calmed down later, thinking that Chen Shi’s life experience is only known to her and Feng Yuan, not even Feng Yu, let alone other servants.
Qin again cross-examined the servant who followed Chen to pray that day, and learned that when Chen was praying, there was indeed a middle-aged woman who was not dressed like ordinary people.
When Qin Shi described Wang Shi’s appearance, the servant girl naturally said it was him.
Qin’s teeth itch with hatred, pointed at Chen’s and scolded her for a long time, and then locked her in the small yard, making her face the wall and think.
Although Feng Yu was not implicated, the punishment for his mother was more uncomfortable than punishment for him.
If he didn’t know the people in the British government, he would naturally hold grudges at this time, but he and Gu Ye are considered to have some friendship, especially Gu Ye who makes friends regardless of family background The remarks surprised and liked him quite a bit.
Do people who can raise such children really do such things?
Feng Yu was very suspicious, so he came here.
He was hesitating, Gu Ye trotted over to say hello, saying that you came just in time, “I’m writing a new play, my mother said that I can do a pre-sale, and I’m going to send it to your house Two advance tickets.”
Feng Yu looked at his heartless smile with a solemn expression.
Gu Ye stopped laughing and asked tentatively what happened?
Feng Yu said: “The rumors in the past two days…”
Gu Ye was even more stunned, “I have recently started to study, and I am studying hard every day. I haven’t been around outside for several days.”
Feng Yu said it was okay, and turned to leave, Gu Ye held him back, “Why do you leave halfway through the words? What are the rumors, about our family?”
“You know my identity?” Feng Yu was surprised at first, but then he thought about it, Gu Ye knew, but he was willing to be with him, so informal and open-minded. Even more doubts about the veracity of the rumors.
The rumors can be known after a little inquiries, so Feng Yu told him a few words.
Gu Ye had the same reaction as his mother, and immediately said it was impossible, “My milk is not that kind of person.”
After he finished speaking, he scratched his head a little embarrassedly, “My grandmother is not a person with exquisite thoughts, and she won’t shout when the gods and Buddhas congratulate? Maybe she didn’t listen at all at that time. Clear. But it doesn’t matter what I said about it, you go back with me, and we will confront each other. “
Don’t look at Gu Ye’s love of writing misunderstandings and entanglements in the drama, in fact, he was influenced by Gu Yin, and there is a straight side in his temperament.
Gu Ye said there was nothing wrong, “It’s definitely not what my family did, it’s just a misunderstanding. I didn’t do anything wrong, my family is not afraid of confrontation, what are you afraid of?”
Feng Yu added: “As soon as this rumor came out, my grandmother has already hated your house, and she must have sent someone to monitor your neighborhood. It’s not good for me to come here.”
He was not afraid of being punished, but worried about his mother.
He grew up in the barracks, where Mr. Chen was very popular, so he found Mr. Wenwu for him. He is really smart, and he made rapid progress in everything he learned. But since the opening of the Mansion of the Duke of Lu, the Qin family still thinks that the Chen family has not raised him well, and no longer allows the Chen family to intervene in Feng Yu’s education.
And whenever Feng Yu dares to disobey the Qin family, it will attract more dissatisfaction and scolding from the Qin family to the Chen family.
Feng Yu became cautious, thinking of his mother first in every case.
Gu Ye thought about it and came up with an idea. Then Feng Yu pretended to be a mother to hold injustice and chased after him.
Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what happened.
Gu Ye went to see his mother again, next to Gu Yin, and said resentfully, “I still know that my mother is in front of me, my mother just looks at me like that.”
Gu Yin said with a good laugh: “I heard from the concierge that someone was chasing you, I was a little worried, but I saw that you all ran into the house, and the one chasing you was Young Master Feng, you are so full of praise for Young Master Feng, if he is really someone who will do whatever he wants, how can you like him so much?”
After speaking, Gu Yin lowered her voice and said, “I know there must be guards around you, but you don’t usually show your face.”
Gu Ye laughed again, “My mother understands me.”
Gu Yin nodded at him with a smile, and asked Feng Yu to speak in the main hall.
After they left, Song Shiliu, who came out, didn’t move. She looked at the crowd with her hands on her hips, and said with a stern face, “You all know what happened today, what should you say?”
Although the servants in the mansion are all from the original palace, they have undergone blood changes again and again, and now they are all honest.
Song Shiliu followed Wang’s housekeeper and knew that she was the most useful person by Wang’s side, and her words were equivalent to the words of the master.
So someone immediately said: “I know, Young Master Feng chased and beat our young master, chased him to our house, and let our old lady and wife detain him!”
Song Shiliu nodded with satisfaction and let everyone do other work.
In the main hall, Gu Yin asked the maid to bring tea to Feng Yu, and then screened the others, and then explained: “My mother was indeed there on the day when Lingtang went to the nunnery. But she was also there at the time. I only heard a few words, and I even mentioned it to my family when I came back, let alone go out and spread rumors. But it’s not a list for now, I have more important things to tell you.”
Immediately, Gu Yin talked about the old couple of the Ge family.
Feng Yu heard her say that the old couple of the Ge family thought that their abducted daughter might come back to find them, so these years, they have been stalling at the wharf regardless of the weather, and they are all covered with frost. Bai, at an age of sickness, is still waiting, looking forward to…
He was so young, and although he was not sure whether the other party was his grandfather, he still had red eyes.
Gu Ye sat next to him and didn’t persuade him, only reached out and patted his shoulder.
“Young Master Feng can hear Lingtang mention the past? Does she still have any impressions?”
Feng Yu turned her back and wiped her eyes, then said, “Mother didn’t mention it, she just said that she was separated from her parents during the war, so I don’t have a home.”
He couldn’t help frowning when he said that. Before, he could have gone back and asked Chen shi directly, but now Chen shi is grounded. Except for the people around Qin shi who bring food and drink in, no one else can met her.
Gu Yin guessed something from his face.
Song Shiliu just came in, walked over to Gu Yin and Wang Shi, and whispered: “Don’t worry, old lady and madam, the slaves have already finished training the others, they will not go out and talk nonsense. , will only say that Young Master Feng is chasing and beating our young master, and then let our family detain him.”
Wang shi glanced at Song Shiliu with admiration, Gu Yin’s eyes lit up, and smiled: “Good pomegranate, I have to trouble you to run.”
Song Shiliu patted her chest and said, “Madam, just tell me.”
The other people in the room didn’t know why, so she heard Gu Yin continue: “Feng Xiaogong is too bullying and beats my son like this, do you still want to play as a child and let it go? Go and invite The adults of his family come, distinguish and distinguish!”
Song Shiliu thought about it and asked: “The Duke of Lu should be on the same level as our generals, right? The slaves will come later?”
Gu Yin gave her a look of “Are you stupid”, “But before he goes home, you have to go and return as soon as possible. Remember to be angry and ask them to come immediately, If it’s too late, Young Master Feng will suffer in our house!”
Song Shiliu still doesn’t quite understand, but it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t understand, anyway, she must be right to hear her wife’s words, she hurriedly “hey”, and immediately got a taxi, and left the house in the blink of an eye.
“Thank you madam.” Feng Yu got up and bowed.
Feng Yuan and Wu Qingyi are not at home, only Qin Shi is the only one who can take care of the affairs of the Duke of Lu. She is still claiming to be sick and has excellent face. This kind of shameless work, she naturally asked her daughter-in-law, who was not welcome by her, to come.
Not long after, Wu An came back from school. He also left school early today. He was about to rest when he got home. , painted a portrait.
Wu An has been learning painting for a short time, and he has not been influenced by the current style of pursuing imagery rather than realism. He does not use brushes, only charcoal, and the portraits he draws are closer to modern ones Sketch like.
After the portrait was painted, Mrs. Chen also went to the British government.
She is really embarrassed. When the rumors spread, she didn’t think it was something that the British government would do – their mother and son and Gu Yin’s mother and son have dealt with each other, and they have a good impression on them. .
Although Qin Shi said that when she was in the nunnery that day, the middle-aged woman next to her was Wang Shi.
But when she congratulated, Mrs Wang also closed her eyes reverently and said something in her mouth.
The two of them carried out at the same time, even if Wang Shi really has that ability, she does two things with one heart, and hears her soft ravings in her ears without a word, she does not seem like that kind of person – when she was about to leave Look at your own eyes, tender and cherish, just like the elders look at their own juniors. At least Qin Shi had never seen her like this.
I heard that Feng Yu beat up other people’s children and was detained, Chen became more and more ashamed.
But then he looked at Feng Yu and Gu Yetou talking beside him. He didn’t seem to be in a bad relationship, and he was confused for a while.
Gu Yin had the door closed and said, “It happened suddenly, and it was an expedient way to invite the lady over. Please take a look at this portrait first.”
The sketch portrait was handed to Chen Shi. The husband and wife on the portrait were all in their fifties and sixties.
This is not the person Chen’s impression knows, but it is a sense of familiarity.
“Nuan?” Gu Yin called her tentatively.
