Chapter 185 (1/2)
Xiaocui rushes back to Zhilan hospital.
”Good news, girl.”
The weather is getting hot, Gu Jiu is wearing thin spring clothes, leaning on the soft collapse.
The window is open, there is a cool wind blowing from the window, blowing the hair on the temples a force of chaos.
She raised her hand and pinned her broken hair behind her ear.
I have read one third of the official history in my hand.
Xiaocui's voice was loud, and green plum gave her a hush.
”Keep your voice down. The girl is reading a book.”
Xiaocui quickly lowered her voice and said with green plum: ”sister green plum, the prince's house has sent a post. Please go to the palace for a banquet in six days.”
”Really?”
Xiaocui nodded heavily, ”it's true. The steward, who is in charge of the invitation, will still be in the outer courtyard, and the Housekeeper will take care of everything. ”
Qingmei asked again, ”does your wife know?”
Xiaocui said, ”my wife already knows. I heard that the palace invited not only the wife, but also the eldest lady. ”
Green plum expression some serious, ”the palace under the post, estimated is the princess wants to see the girl.”
”The marriage between the girl and the prince has been settled for a long time, and even the marriage date has been fixed. How can the princess look at each other?”
Xiaocui asked curiously.
Green plum glanced at her, ”you don't understand.”
Being a mother-in-law and seeing her future daughter-in-law is not so simple.
Green plum enters the study and comes to Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu turned the pages of the book and said, ”what are you and Xiaocui talking about outside?”
Green plum squatted down and whispered, ”Qichen girl, the prince's house has sent a post and invited the master's sons to a banquet in six days.”
”Is it?”
Green plum nodded, very worried, ”maid guess, this banquet, is the princess and empress want to see the girl.”
”Just look. What are you worried about?”
”The maidservant is worried that the princess is not satisfied with the girl.”
Gu Jiu closed the book and said, ”I'm not a treasure. It's impossible for everyone to like it. If Wang Feifei likes me or not, I will marry him. Under the decree, this matter cannot be changed. ”
Gu Jiu hopes to change the imperial edict and not let her marry Liu Zhao.
But she doesn't have that much energy. Nowadays, she only has a limited right to speak.
Once upon a time, Gu Jiu wanted to go out of the relationship with Mr. Gu and enhance his discourse power in the government. For their own marriage, future, careful planning.
In the northwest, the effect was good.
After returning to the capital, especially when she pointed out her marriage to Liu Zhao, Mr. Gu stopped asking her to talk to him for some reason.
This year, Gu Jiu read all kinds of historical books, and asked Er Zhuang to inquire about the information about the capital market. He had goods in his stomach. However, she couldn't find a chance to display her talent, and she also did nothing.
What's more, Gu Jiu also found that the idea of Mr. Gu is actually quite old-fashioned.
Although it is not a virtue for a woman to have no talent, she does not want her family to participate in the affairs outside too much.
Gradually, Gu Jiu rested and tried to express his mind in front of Mr. Gu.
What's more, Mr. Gu doesn't necessarily attach much importance to her ideas.
Perhaps Mr. Gu thought that she was going to get married soon. It was useless to say more.
Say more useless words, the Tao has done everything.
She is going to marry her grandson. Ning Wang Fu Rong, Gu Fu followed Zhanguang. If Ning Wang's house is in bad luck, Mr. Gu will definitely clear the relationship at the first time.
No one knows who will sit in that supreme position in the end.
Therefore, it is useless to say too much now.
Gu Jiu does not complain about heaven or earth.
She accepted the fate of the arrangement, hiding her talent. She knew very well that the palace was where she put her hands and feet.
Her battlefield is in the palace, in the royal family, in the palace, in the court.
If she wants to cherish her single life in the last few months, she will be a free girl to be married and save more dowry.
”But if the princess doesn't like the girl, she will be in trouble when she gets married to the palace. A word from the princess will make it difficult for a girl to walk in the palace. ”
Gu Jiu chuckled softly, ”what do you want to say? Shall I please the princess
”If the princess is easy to please, that's fine.” Green plum a sigh.
Gu Jiu pinched green plum's cheek, ”you just want too much. From the day of the marriage, it was destined that the princess could not like me. You don't have to worry about it. ”
Green plum for Gu Jiu packing uneven, ”the princess has never seen a girl, why don't you like girls.”
Gu Jiu said with a smile: ”if you hate a person, you don't have to meet. In the eyes of the princess, I married the prince Zhao, which was a real and high-level person.
The Royal concubine's family is the Duke of Lu's residence, and her husband is the king of Ning. She must think highly of herself. How could she have taken a fancy to the daughter of a governor in a small capital city. Do you understand? ”Green plum nods, got it.
”Just wronged the girl.”
”I'm not aggrieved.”
Gu Jiumei's eyes are bent, the eyes are smiling.
Ivory white dress, set off her cheek white and smooth, full of collagen eggs.
A head of black and smooth hair, people have a kind of impulse to touch.
Compared with the same year ago, Gu Jiu has undergone a completely new change.
People grow tall, beautiful, also have a body curve, is no longer the original thin yellow bean sprouts.
Gu Jiu said: ”because of the marriage, I got 40000 liang of dowry, which was 20000 Liang more than Gu Yue. It is also because of the marriage, the servants in the mansion respect me, which makes my little life comfortable. It is also because of the marriage that the master turned a blind eye to my business outside. ”
Gu Jiu let Er Zhuang open the pearl flower shop, but finally failed to hide from Gu.
But master Gu didn't say anything when he knew about it. Quan should not have known about it. In private, he told Gu Yu to take more care of it.
GU Jiu still listened to Gu Yu's fourth brother.
The reason why Mr. Gu knows that the pearl flower shop is opened by Gu Jiu is that someone has said something wrong.
Although Er Zhuang didn't work as an official in the mansion, many old people knew him.
Knowing that he opened a pearl flower shop in the capital, a little inquiry revealed that the master behind him was Gu Jiu.
Fortunately, it has not reached Xie's ears. Otherwise, Xie's family will make a scene again, and his ears will not be clean.
Green plum opened her mouth and asked, ”do you really think so?”
Gu Jiu nodded and solemnly said: ”think carefully, this marriage is not good, but it is not bad.
Forty thousand taels of dowry, although the real gold and silver is only a few thousand taels, the rest are farm shops and other things.
But with these capital, I can do a lot of things in the future. It's much better than ten Liang a month.
When I got my dowry, the jewelry shop I mentioned would be open. ”
Qingmei chuckled and laughed, ”tell me the good news. Last month, the business of Er Zhuang was excellent. After deducting all kinds of expenses, er Zhuang sent for 120 taels of silver. ”
WOW!
Gu Jiu is happy.
”It's not easy. After a few months of operation, the revenue has finally broken through double digits.”
”Er Zhuang said that we don't need to invest money to expand our business this month, and we can get more profits next month.”
Gu Jiu laughed, ”pearl flower business, look at the eye, did not expect that every month can also have hundreds of Liang income.”
In the past few months, er Zhuang had to retain a part of the income every month, asking people to expand their business, as well as personal contacts.
Such as asking yamen yamen yamen servants to drink tea and wine and so on.
Therefore, the income sent to Gu Jiu was not much, only 34 Liang.
However, even if it is only thirty or forty Liang, it is equivalent to Gu Jiu's monthly silver for more than half a year, which makes Gu Jiu's hands much more relaxed, and rewarding the servants will not feel painful.
Now everything in jumeizhai is in order, and the expenses are also reduced.
In the future, every month, er Zhuang can bring in hundreds of liang of income.
Hundreds of taels, not much. Every little makes a lot, and there are thousands of taels of income a year.
The capital looks at the shops that have done a lot of business, but only a few thousand Liang a year.
Jumeizhai is a humble but profitable business. This business must be carried on for a long time.
The brand of jumeizhai has been put out. Now, all the girls and daughters-in-law who have a little family background have recognized jumeizhai.
