Chapter 186 (1/2)

The Xu family arrived.

Gu Zhen was so nervous that her hands trembled.

If the marriage doesn't work, she'll really be an old girl.

Gu Jiu pinched Gu Zhen's hand. ”Big sister, take a deep breath and relax. Think about how mammy taught me. Don't worry. ”

Gu Zhen nodded.

Back in the capital, she learned the rules again with Mammy, followed the eldest Aunt Zhang to learn housekeeper and director, and followed her aunt to learn needlework.

Gu Zhen felt that she had made great progress compared with that in Northwest China.

In addition to her status as a commoner, she thought she was no worse than her sisters.

At the second gate, welcome the Xu family.

The eldest wife, Zhang, was very happy. When the two sisters met, they were extremely intimate.

After the greetings, everyone went to the flower hall.

Mrs. Xu swept through the crowd and caught Gu Zhen with her eyes.

Gu Zhen straightened her back in an instant, very nervous.

When we arrived at the flower hall, we sat down.

After a few words of greeting, Mrs. Zhang called the girls in the house to her and introduced them to Mrs. Xu. This paper mainly introduces Gu Zhen.

”Miss Zhen is the eldest girl in the family. The rules, the needlework are all first-class. Since last year, I began to learn housekeeper from me. On weekdays, I went to Hou's house to study and practice calligraphy with my female husband. ”

”Oh, are you still going to study in Hou's residence?”

Mrs. Xu was in a good mood.

Gu Zhen bowed slightly and said, ”I'll tell Aunt Xu that every afternoon, I'll go to Hou's house with my sisters and follow Mr. Luo to read and practice calligraphy.”

”How are you doing?”

Gu Zhen a little embarrassed, ”my foundation is poor, study stupid, until now just finished two books.”

Mrs. Xu was very satisfied. The daughter-in-law she is looking for doesn't need to read much, as long as she can read and calculate accounts and understand the truth.

Gu Zhen, like her, is more suitable to be a daughter-in-law because she does not devote herself to books and does not make mistakes as a scholar.

Mrs. Xu has been in contact with several girls from the civil service family. She studies with her heart and soul, and her head is stupid. She is not sensitive to such a girl.

Mrs. Xu took Gu Zhen's hand and said, ”she knows how to sew, how to manage accounts, and how to read. She is really a good girl. It's a pity to be worthy of our family's Sanlang. ”

Gu Zhen instantly blushed, and then she became nervous again.

What did she mean by Mrs. Xu's words? This is satisfied with her or not satisfied with her.

Mrs. Xu brought a gift to meet her today. She glanced at her servant girl, who hastened to give her a gift, a pair of jade bracelets.

Mrs. Xu said with a smile, ”I like this child as soon as I look at it. This is a little bit of my heart, but I can't abandon it.”

When Gu Zhen saw a pair of jade bracelets, her heart fluttered.

”How can I have such a valuable gift?”

”Take it. You can't say goodbye to a gift from the elderly, understand? ” Mrs. Xu insisted on delivering it.

Gu Zhen looks at his eldest wife, Zhang.

Mrs. Zhang laughed, ”Jane, aunt Xu really likes you. Take this gift.”

Gu Zhen smell speech, this just accept gift, ”thank you very much aunt Xu.”

”Don't mention it.”

Then he exchanged greetings with Xie, ”the second wife is very lucky. Several girls are like flowers. He is sensible, courteous, housekeeper and literate. ”

Xie's heart is proud, ”Mrs. Xu praised falsely. In a family like ours, no matter who comes from the common family or comes out directly, they are all taught the same way. Jane's character, needlework and rules are excellent, and her writing is extremely neat. ”

Mrs. Xu nodded to herself, but was not in a hurry to make a decision. And look at it again.

When the elders chatted in the flower hall, the girls took the girls of the Xu family to the wing room for tea and snacks.

Today, Miss Xu Er also came with a task. She had to check for her mother and observe Gu Zhen's private character.

Gu Jiu leads everyone to create a good atmosphere for Gu Zhen, so that Gu Zhen can show her strengths as much as possible.

But unexpectedly, Gu Yue always has a straight face, a pair of unhappy appearance.

Gu Yue didn't say anything, but just with a straight face, she had already let Xu Er girl's head jump in her heart, which made her nervous.

”Is sister Gu San unhappy?”

Gu Yue slightly shook his head, ”you misunderstood. I'm not doing it myself. I'm sulking. You don't need to pay attention to me. ”

This?

Miss Xu Er looks at Gu Jiu and others.

Gu Zhen twisted her handkerchief and glared angrily at Gu Yue.

What do you mean, you want to ruin her marriage?

Gu Jiu stealthily stops Gu Zhen and forbids Gu Zhen to be rude in front of the guests.

Gu Jiu stood out, ”three sisters, if you are not comfortable, it is better to go back to the room and have a rest.”

Gu Yue suddenly stood up, ”good! I just want to go back to my room. You talk. I'll leave first. ”

With that, Gu Yue left the wing room.Gu Zhen secretly guessed that Gu Yue would repeat his old skill and use it in Xu Sanlang's body?

She is not at ease, let servant girl green dress to find aunt Hu, let aunt Hu send someone to mark Gu Yue.

Green took orders and left.

Gu Yue left, in the efforts of Gu Jiu and Gu Shan, the atmosphere in the wing room becomes lively again.

It is also very happy to have tea, eat snacks, talk about interesting things in boudoir, and talk about poems and songs.

Wait until noon, servant girl came to inform the banquet is ready, please move to the small flower hall.

To the small flower hall a look, Gu Yue is not in.

Mrs. Zhang quietly asked Xie, ”sister-in-law, what's wrong with three girls?”

Xie was embarrassed for a second, then said as if nothing had happened: ”she is not feeling well. She went back to her room to have a rest. I've ordered someone to call her. I'll be here soon. Don't wait for her. ”

”All right.”

Purple bamboo yard, servant girl grape into the bedroom, ”girl, the wife sent people to call you, let you go to the small flower hall to eat the banquet.”

”No, No

Gu Yue covered himself in the quilt, and his heart was full of hate and anger.

She would never go to a banquet. I'd rather starve to death.

Grape stammered, ”what's wrong with you, girl? Since yesterday, something's wrong with you. Is there anything you can't say to your maidservant? ”

”You're so noisy. Shut up.”

Gu Yue angrily denounced grape, ”if you answer for me, you will say that I am not well, I have no appetite, and I will not eat the banquet.”

Grape asked again and again, ”girl, don't you really want to eat the banquet?”

Gu Yue sat up from the bed, ”do you think I'm joking? Not yet

Grape can't, stamp his feet and run out to answer.

Gu Yue sat at the head of the bed, biting her teeth, as if there was a fire burning in her heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney.

Without Gu Yue, the atmosphere was better.

If Gu Yue is in, she just needs a face to make the whole table quiet. It's a total 10 atmosphere breaker.

A banquet will make the guests and guests happy.

After dinner and a little rest, Mrs. Xu said goodbye.

The eldest wife, Zhang, repeatedly asked them to stay. They were sisters and spoke casually.

”My sister is not satisfied with Jane?”

Mrs. Xu shook her head. ”My sister misunderstood me. I'm very satisfied with Jane.”
