Chapter 401

In the middle of summer.

The leaves rolled as if to be absorbed by the sun.

Cicadas sing one after another, listening to feel hot and dry.

There seems to be an aperture in the sky, which makes people's eyes unable to open.

In the small study of the east courtyard, there is an ice basin, which is permeated with a sense of coolness. But not enough to suppress people's hot and dry heart.

In the summer of thirty-seven years, the heat was especially hot and came very early.

Not yet had a good feeling of the warmth of spring, the weather suddenly entered the barbecue mode.

Gu Jiu has a stomach of more than five months and is very flexible.

She was pregnant with this baby with extraordinary ease.

No vomiting, no sleep all night, and normal appetite. There was no change in taste from before pregnancy.

I don't want to eat spicy food or sour food, which is the normal taste.

I don't have backache. I sleep well at night.

Fetal movement is also normal.

Everything is normal. It's the best news.

In the hot weather, she ate two pieces of frozen watermelon. She still wanted to eat it, but Qingmei took it away.

"Watermelon is cool in nature, so my wife can't eat more."

Gu Jiu has a snack plug, "You peel a cucumber, I eat cucumber."

"Cucumbers are also cool. If you eat watermelon today, you can't eat cucumber any more. You can eat cucumber tomorrow. "

Gu Jiu was a little agitated, "what can I eat?"

"Madame, have some soup. Drink soup to keep fit. "

"No drinking!"

Gu Jiu refused very simply.

In fact, she doesn't want to eat watermelon or cucumber. Is the heart has fire, commonly known as the fire, want to eat something cool to press the fire.

To say that the biggest impact of pregnancy on Gu Jiu is emotional ups and downs, unpredictable.

Shangyimiao is also very happy, because Liu Zhao's words and eyes will make her turn over in the next Miao.

In fact, Liu Zhao was speaking normally.

She stood up and walked around the room.

From the small study to the bedroom, and back from the bedroom.

She asked Qingmei, "where has Xiaocui gone?"

"Madam Qi, Xiaocui talks to some elder sisters of Xile hall."

Joy hall is a two room courtyard.

In the first month, Ouyang Fu gave birth as scheduled, a girl, five catties and six taels.

When Ouyang Fu had a baby, Gu Jiu didn't go. I didn't see how disappointed and frightening he was when he learned that the baby was a girl.

She still listened to Xiaocui. She said that it was the steady woman who held the child to the second young master. The second young master glanced at her eyes and ordered a few words. After that, she directly shook her sleeve and left.

From the beginning to the end, I didn't want to see Ouyang Fu, and I didn't ask whether Ouyang Fu was in good condition. It seems that Ouyang Fu doesn't care whether she is alive or dead.

Xiaocui also said that when Ouyang Fu learned that she had a daughter, she had already cried before she came out of the delivery room.

All in all, the scene was embarrassing and embarrassing.

Ouyang family members were also present at that time. However, because Ouyang Fu was born to a daughter, she felt guilty and had no confidence. She did not dare to say a word, let alone support Ouyang Fu.

When the child washes three, Gu Jiu goes to see the child.

The child is very good, only a few days after birth, you can see that it is a beautiful little girl.

Ouyang Fu from the ghost gate to go a trip, people are very haggard. It looks like you haven't had a good rest since the baby was born.

Gu Jiu is interested in asking questions, but Ouyang Fu doesn't want to expose his miserable side in front of others.

Gu Jiu can only give up.

Anyone who has eyes can see that the second childe is not happy with his daughter.

It's said that during Ouyang Fu's confinement, the second son only stepped into his bedroom twice, and each time he stayed for less than half an hour.

He didn't take the child's name either, as if he had completely forgotten it.

After Ouyang Fu was born, she went to Princess Pei and named her child Liu Nian according to her seniority.

Ning Wang's line, this generation of girls are heart generation.

She took her name and went to the Shaofu to get her genealogy. The little girl finally got her identity.

Although Pei was very sorry that Ouyang Fu failed to give birth to a son, she did not criticize her. Also sent a generous gift to celebrate the child's full moon.

As for the second childe, Pei is too lazy to ask.

Shen side imperial concubine because Ouyang Fu was born a daughter, she has no good face.

Several times, Gu Jiu hears Shen Bian Fei scold Ouyang Fu. The inside and outside meaning is that she dislikes Ouyang Fu's stomach and doesn't strive for courage.

At first, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were very harmonious. Shen side imperial concubine has been good to Ouyang Fu for many years.

Once a girl was born, everything changed.

After Gu Jiu saw it, he was really dissatisfied. Is it so repugnant to have a girl? If you don't have a girl, can your son get a wife and have offspring?

She had to bear it. It was not easy to hold back her temper.Because Ouyang Fu was born to a girl, the second son had more reason to love the two concubines. It seems that the hope of having a son is placed in the concubine's room.

Gu Jiu has nothing to do, to his pulse, do production inspection.

The pulse is strong and everything is normal. It's just that I'm upset.

Liu Zhao went to yamen as an errand, but Gu Jiu couldn't find a target to beat people.

Because she was pregnant, she was not even interested in making money in business.

All the things are left to the people below. Only when the people below can't make a decision, Gu Jiu will come forward.

The first phase of the South Gate project started last month.

The tens of thousands of refugees gathered outside the gate of the city are not so easy to send away.

If you want to start the first, second and third phases of the project at the same time, you have to move people away.

There is no way, Gu Jiu can only in the periphery, a special designated out of a place, first build the cheapest resettlement housing.

So that the refugees can see the hope and facilitate the follow-up work.

After walking around with a cup of tea, Xiaocui came back with the scorching sun.

Let's put the ice basin in the big room. She simply picked up a piece of ice and put it in her hand.

Green plum asked her: "where to go again, a body of sweat."

Close to Xiaocui, as if you can smell a smell of sunshine.

Xiaocui laughed, "I went to the joy hall and went to the West courtyard. Chat with my sisters

Gu Jiu asked her with a smile, "have you heard any gossip?"

"Yes, yes." Xiaocui has round eyes and is very excited.

Gu Jiu said casually: "let's listen to who's gossip?"

Xiao Cui said with a smile, "the second lady made rules for the two concubines today."

Eh?

It's very strange.

Since the second childe took a concubine, Ouyang Fu's attitude has always been no matter what. How did she suddenly think of making rules for the concubine's room?

"Why?"

"I heard from the elder sisters of the joy hall that they said bad things about reading my sister behind their back, which was also spread to the second lady's ears. So the second lady asked them to make rules. "

"Don't you know about it yet?"

"I don't know yet."

Gu Jiu nodded clearly.

Qingmei was worried, "the second young master will not quarrel with the second lady."

Gu Jiu thought for a while, finally shook his head, "should not."

The second young master Mianli Tibetan Dao will not tear Ouyang Fu's face directly for the sake of two concubines.

And he also expected Ouyang Fu to give birth to a legitimate son for him.

Yes, my son.

Son, baby, but if it's not a legitimate son, it's not beautiful.

Green plum said: "it's good not to quarrel. Over the past few months, the second lady has undergone a lot of exchanges, and we, as servants, feel unworthy for the second lady. "

Gu Jiu smiles and makes no noise.

Xiaocui is very direct, "madam, what should I do if she is also a girl? Will the young master treat his wife coldly like the second childe? "

"Don't talk if you can't talk." Green plum is very angry. Xiao Cui didn't keep the door open.

She was worried that Gu Jiu would think more about this.

Gu Jiu laughed, "don't worry, the second childe is the second childe, the young master is different from him. As long as it's born to me, you like it. "

Gu Jiu is so confident.

Green plum laughed, "childe is not to say to his wife, love my wife, naturally very rare stomach baby."

Gu Jiu leans on the soft couch and plans to squint for a while.

The servant reported that Deng Cunli asked to see him.

Gu Jiu opened his eyes and asked him to come in

Deng Cunli came here at this time. Something must have happened.

Deng Cunli washed the sweat off his body and changed into a light long shirt before he entered the cool little study.

How comfortable!

He bowed and saluted, "old slave, please send my wife's regards."

"No gift! Sit and talk. "

"Thank you, ma'am."

Deng Cunli sat down on the stool, waiting for Gu Jiu to ask, he took the lead in saying: "the old slave came here today, there is something that needs to be decided by his wife."

"Say it

"Today, the children's government sent people to ask whether the remaining loans are needed? I don't know what Madame is going to do? "

A mention of money, Gu Jiu toothache.

Not because of the lack of money, but because of the amount of money.

In the spring, the royal family order first sent her 100000 taels of silver, which was explained by King Ning when he left Beijing.

One hundred thousand taels, fifty thousand of which were paid by the public, and the remaining fifty thousand were the private money of King Ning. Pei did not know that King Ning had so much private money in hand.

The royal family order also specially ordered Gu Jiu to keep quiet and not let Pei know the existence of 50000 liang of private money. When making accounts, we should also make another one.Gu Jiumian accepted the silver for his own sake.

In addition to the sisters' money has been sent, has not started construction, Gu Jiu has nearly 200000 liang of start-up funds in hand.

When she was going to ask the Shao Fu to loan out the remaining 800000 Liang, Chen Dachang sent someone to send the money.

As the saying goes, the emperor is optimistic about her project, so she has to invest some money and earn some pocket money.

One shot is a million taels.

Almost did not scare Gu Jiu to death.

Not scared to death by money, but by the emperor.

Originally a million taels of plate, the emperor a hand is a million, how many meanings?

Do you want to steal the project halfway?

Secondly, the project outside the south gate is not as profitable as expected.

Her orientation from the beginning was a small profit project.

Therefore, Gu Jiu simply refused the emperor's one million yuan and said, "I can't afford it."

Because of this, the son of heaven spoke and called her into the palace.

When you arrive at Xingqing palace, you come and go again and haggle with each other.

In the end, Gu Jiumian received an investment of 300000 taels from the emperor.

The emperor was depressed.

Pointing to Gu Jiu, he said, "it is a hundred times more treacherous than Liu Zhao."

Gu Jiu's mouth corners draw, want to take back very much, the most treacherous person in the world is your majesty.

Gu Jiu didn't borrow money from the government. She already had 6.7 million startup funds on hand, so she simply postponed the loan time.

The first phase of the project, not much money, on hand start-up funds enough to turnover.

She said to Deng Cunli, "you tell the Shao Fu that I definitely want a loan. However, the relocation of the refugees outside the gate of Nancheng is slower than the original plan, and there is not much money needed for the time being, so they are asked to wait. "

Deng Cunli bowed slightly. "The young master also considered this problem. They asked when to wait?"

Gu Jiu asked him in turn, "when do you think we will wait?"

"According to the plan, people will take the initiative to move in half a month," Deng said

"Will it go well?" Although Gu Jiu didn't care much about the project outside the south gate because of her pregnancy, she had a good idea.

Relocation is a big project. Any accident can happen.

Deng Cunli said: "laonu estimated that, at least, the land for the second phase project could be released. If it goes well, at least 120000 people will be relocated. "

"It seems that the first houses are about to be built."

"Exactly."

Gu Jiu came interested, "I'll go to the scene some other day."

Green plum a listen, anxious.

"Madame, pregnant, can't go to that kind of place. What to do in case of being hit by someone and an accident happens. "

Deng Cunli nodded frequently, "Madame or department should be easy to get involved in danger. Although no traitor or villain was found among the refugees, the place was still unsafe. I'm afraid there will be a large number of people around to see where the lady appears, and there will be accidents. "

"Well, I won't go."

Gu Jiu is as good as a stream. In fact, she also counsels, not for their own consideration, but also for children.

Tens of thousands of mu of land outside the gate of Nancheng will not be completed this year alone.

It's not too late for her to go until she has a baby and is in good health.

When Deng Cunli got the letter, he got up and said goodbye.

There are a lot of things waiting for him to decide on the construction site. He can't leave for a long time.

……

In the morning.

East just spit white, South City Gate outside refugee shack area, is already a roar of people. It was as lively as a market.

Looking around, the thatched shacks were low and narrow. Except for children, adults have to stoop in and out.

The hut was dark and could not penetrate any light.

Not only that, it also exudes a strange smell, can smoke people over.

Human and animal manure is piled up in the alley outside the shack. Flies have been working in the morning, buzzing and lingering.

It's dark, dirty and poor.

In the past, everyone's face was numb, and every day was a day.

No one cares how dirty the environment is.

People can't live. Who cares whether others are pulling in the street.

However, in recent months, the faces of these refugees, especially the young and strong laborers, have gradually turned red.

There was light in their numb eyes.

People who didn't even have a shack in the past have spare time to build one for themselves.

A 17-8-year-old teenager came out of a low shack not far from the garbage.

He was thin, with his bare upper body and ribs clearly visible.

"Roots..."

After that, a small, black and thin woman came out of the shed, still holding a nest head in her hand.

It's tough.The woman gave him the nest head, "take it and eat it.

Wang Jiangen waved his hand, "I don't need it. It's all for the construction site."

"The construction site only includes Chinese food and dinner. Can you stand not eating in the morning and living so much? Take it

Wang Jiangen grinned, "I can stand it. The construction site has tartary buckwheat tea to drink, drinking tea can be full. Mother, give the nest to your younger brothers and sisters. "

At the door of the shed, several pairs of black and bright eyes appeared. They all stare at the nest in the woman's hand.

The woman looked back at several children and suddenly wiped her tears. "If your father is still alive, we don't have to rely on you to support our family. You don't have to... "

"Mother, stop talking. Now every day there is a nest to eat, and pay to take, how good. "

the woman Wang Lianshi nodded repeatedly," you are right. It's a pity that your brothers are too young to be on the construction site. "

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Three gongs and drums.

The whole shelter area heard these three sounds, for one quiet.

Then the whole shack area was boiling.

Because it's a recruitment signal.

The original bustling shack area, as if adding a drop of oil, people all ran to the big locust tree. I'm afraid I'll be late and my work will be robbed.

Woman Wang Lian Shi looked at the direction of the big locust tree, "I don't know what kind of people this time, I also go to see."

"Mother, you're not well. Don't go." Wang Jiangen stopped.

Wang Lianshi waved his hand, "I'm ok. The medicine soup you brought back is very good. I didn't cough after drinking it. Don't be late. I'll take a look there first. If it's a light job, I can lighten it for you. "

Wang Lianshi, with several half grown children, rushed to the big locust tree.

There are already three floors inside and three floors outside.

All the people were looking forward to the people on the earthen platform.
