Chapter 171 (1/2)
As Gu Qingzhou guessed, the good play of the governor's house came.
Gu Qingzhou had dinner and was about to go upstairs to have a rest when he received a call from his fifth aunt taihuayan.
”Miss Gu, I want to thank you for curing my illness. Tomorrow evening, please come to the governor's house for a dinner. It's a family dinner. It happens to be my birthday.” Fifth aunt Taidao.
Gu Qingzhou thought, all this is a little clever.
To cure the fifth aunt, Si qiongzhi was good at guiding her from the beginning.
I'm afraid this birthday party is also Si qiongzhi's meaning, which is to invite Gu Qingzhou to the governor's house.
”Well, I wish you a happy birthday first.” Gu Qingzhou road.
This old-fashioned blessing made the fifth aunt laugh too much.
After hanging up, Gu Qingzhou went back to his room.
However, Gu Xiang and Gu Ying heard the content of her phone and their eyes turned sharply.
”Muma, Gu Qingzhou is going to the governor's house again.” Gu Xiang's silver teeth are broken.
Last time, the second son of the mayor's family invited Gu Xiang to see a movie, but there was no following.
Gu Xiang was very angry. He deliberately started the Wei family twice and didn't meet the second childe.
This matter hangs in Gu Xiang's heart.
She thought that she should make two preparations and go to the company's house more. Maybe she could strengthen other dignitaries. Even if you put a little pressure on Mr. Wei, let him pursue more actively.
”Mom, I'm sure there are a lot of distinguished guests.” Gu Xiang Road.
Gu Ying also said, ”Mom, I'm going too!”
The two of them cling to Qin Zheng.
If it is normal, Qin Zheng dare not promise. Gu Qingzhou is too cunning.
But now, the old lady lives in Gu residence. It's easy for her to hold Gu's boat.
”OK, mummy, arrange it.” Qin Zheng smiled.
Qin Zheng calmed her daughter and turned to find the old lady.
On Saturday morning, there was a light rain. The drizzle was misty, which made it cold in winter. Gu Qingzhou changed his cotton cheongsam.
The leaves of the Wutong tree outside her window have fallen off, and the branches are bare and bathed in the drizzle.
Gu Qingzhou went downstairs to have breakfast. The old lady asked her majestically, ”I heard you're going to the governor's house to attend what ball?”
”It's not a dance, it's just the fifth aunt's birthday party.” Gu Qingzhou road.
The old lady was immediately angry: ”it's not proper! What aunt, it's just a concubine! You'll be the second young grandmother in the future. Won't you make people laugh when you go to the banquet in the concubine room?”
If so, fifty years ago.
The old lady's words are not bad.
But now the world is different. The set of wives and concubines is completely different and has long disappeared.
So many old-fashioned people can't accept the atmosphere of the new era.
Gu Qingzhou doesn't want to be too friendly with her fifth aunt. She just wants to take the back move of Si qiongzhi so that she won't do it again next time.
”It's the governor's office. If you don't want me to go, I won't go.” Gu Qingzhou has gentle eyebrows and eyes and speaks softly.
Gu Guizhang heard it nearby, frowned and said to Gu Qingzhou, ”how can you not go? Break your promise to others, how will you be a man in the future?”
Then Gu Guizhang said impatiently to the old lady, ”mummy, the new era is coming. What wives and concubines! If the concubines in the governor's house were in the previous dynasty, that is, the imperial concubine, this face would not be given, and your son would not have to be an official in the future!”
The governor's house is in Yuecheng, which can indeed be compared to a small imperial court.
The aunt and wife of the Si family are more noble than the normal wife of ordinary people. Gu Guizhang compares the wife and concubine of the Si family with ”Queen” and ”imperial concubine”, which is a bit exaggerated, but it is also very correct.
”You flatter them too much! A group of soldiers will be finished sooner or later!” Said the old lady.
The old lady lost her temper and Gu Guizhang coaxed her. Gu Qingzhou ate her breakfast slowly.
Compared with the old lady's choice of three or four all day, Gu Qingzhou's gentle and quiet attitude sets off the old lady even more ferocious and vulgar.
Gu Guizhang is afraid of his mother and dislikes her. His feelings for her are very complex.
”... she can't go alone. The young girl doesn't look like she has no company.” Said the old lady.
The main purpose was revealed.
”Let Xiang Xiang and Ying Ying accompany her.” The old lady said, ”no one supports you when you go out, and you don't have the respect of big ladies.”
Gu Guizhang thought it was good.
Gu Qingzhou knew in her heart that there was a good play tonight. If she could be accompanied by more than one person, she could pull people into the water at will. She didn't mind.
”Don't the eldest and fourth ladies dislike that the fifth aunt is too concubine and has a low status?” Gu Qingzhou asked with a smile.
Gu Xiang said, ”don't be ignorant. That's the concubine room of the governor's house. It's much more noble than you.”
Gu Qingzhou raised his eyebrows.
She agreed to take Gu Xiang and Gu Ying. The two sisters had breakfast and bought clothes.
The third aunt is too unbalanced about this: ”light boat, they take advantage of you!”
”Is cheap so easy to take?” Gu Qingzhou said with a smile, ”they don't have a good memory, and I can't help it.”
The third aunt is too laughing.
At the same time, the third aunt complained that the old lady was always picky recently and that her clothes were not dignified enough.
”I'm young and old. What do I do?” The third aunt said, ”this old lady, when will she leave?”
Gu Qingzhou smiles.
She thought that the old lady was leaving soon.
If Gu Qingzhou had not been injured and recuperated for many days, she would have dealt with it.
The injury was just right, and it was the governor's house. Gu Qingzhou had to polish it one by one, and let the old lady be arrogant for a few more days.
