As Gu Qingzhou guessed, the good play of the governor's office has come.
Gu Qingzhou had dinner and was about to go upstairs to have a rest when he received a call from his fifth aunt, Tai Huayan.
"Miss Gu, I'd like to thank you for curing my illness. Tomorrow evening, please go to the governor's mansion for a dinner. It's a family dinner, and it happens to be my birthday. " Five aunt too way.
Gu Qingzhou thought, all this is a little coincidence.
From the beginning, Si qiongzhi was very good at treating Wu Yitai.
I'm afraid that this birthday party is also what Si qiongzhi means, that is to invite Gu Qingzhou to the governor's mansion.
"Well, I wish you a long life." Gu Qingzhou road.
This kind of old-fashioned blessing made aunt Wu laugh too much.
After hanging up, Gu Qingzhou went back to his room.
Just, Gu Xiang and Gu Ying hear the content of her phone, eyes turn.
"Muma, Gu Qingzhou is going to the governor's mansion again." Gu Xiang's silver teeth are broken.
Last time, the second son of the mayor's family invited Gu Xiang to go to the cinema, but there was no follow-up.
Gu Xiang is very angry, especially from the Wei family twice, did not meet the second son.
This matter hangs in Gu Xiang's heart.
She thought that she should do two-way preparation, and go to the Secretary's home more, maybe it can strengthen other dignitaries. Even give Mr. Wei a little pressure, let him take the initiative to pursue.
"It's said that it's a banquet. There must be a lot of distinguished guests. Mom, I want to go too." Gu Xiang Road.
Gu Ying also said, "mummy, I'm going too!"
The two of them cling to Qin Zheng.
If normal, Qin Zheng dare not promise, Gu Qingzhou is too cunning.
But now, the old lady lives in Gu's mansion. It's easy for her to handle Gu's boat.
"OK, mum will arrange it." Qin Zheng said with a smile.
Qin Zheng comforted her daughter and turned to find the old lady.
On Saturday morning, there was a light rain, Misty drizzle, there was the chill of winter, Gu Qingzhou changed a set of cotton cheongsam.
the leaves of Wutong 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 in a dignified manner, "I heard that what dance are you going to attend in the governor's mansion?"
"It's not a dance, it's just the fifth aunt's birthday party." Gu Qingzhou road.
The old lady immediately became angry: "out of order! What aunt? It's just a concubine! You'll be the second daughter-in-law in the future. When you go to the banquet in my room, won't it make people laugh? "
If it's 50 years ahead, that's true.
The old lady's words are not bad.
But today's world is different, the wife and concubine that is quite different, has long disappeared.
So many old-fashioned people can't accept the atmosphere of the new era.
Gu Qingzhou doesn't want to make friends with Wu Yi either. She just wants to make sure of Si qiongzhi's later move, 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's eyes and eyebrows are gentle, and his words are soft.
Gu Guizhang heard this and said to Gu Qingzhou with a frown: "how can we not go? If you break your promise, how can you be a man in the future? "
Then, Gu Guizhang said impatiently to the old lady, "Muma, it's a new era. What kind of wife and concubine! If the concubines of the governor's office were in the former dynasty, that is, the imperial concubines, you would not have to be your son's official in the future if you didn't give them face! "
The governor's office in Yuecheng can be compared to a small court.
Gu Guizhang used "empress" and "Concubine" to describe his wife and concubine. It's a little exaggeration, but it's also very correct.
"You flatter them! A group of soldiers will be finished sooner or later! " Said the old lady.
When the old lady lost her temper, Gu Guizhang coaxed her, and Gu Qingzhou finished her breakfast slowly.
Compared with the old lady, Gu Qingzhou's gentle and quiet attitude set off the old lady fiercely and vulgarily.
Gu Guizhang is afraid of his mother, but also dislike her, her feelings are very complex.
"... she can't go alone. It's not like a young girl without company." Said the old lady.
The main purpose is revealed.
"Let Xiang Xiang and Ying Ying accompany her." "The old lady said," go out no one to support, no big miss respect
Gu Guizhang thought it was not bad.
Gu Qingzhou knew that there was a good play to watch tonight. She didn't mind if she could be accompanied by more than one person.
"Don't the eldest and the fourth Miss dislike the fact that the fifth aunt is a concubine and has a low status?" Gu Qingzhou asked with a smile.
Gu Xiang said, "don't be ignorant. It's the concubine room of the governor's mansion. It's much more noble than you."
Gu Qingzhou raises his eyebrows.
She agreed to take Gu Xiang and Gu Ying. After breakfast, the two sisters bought clothes.
Third aunt is too unbalanced: "light boat, they take advantage of you again!""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."
Third aunt is too embarrassed.
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. I'm old. What do I do?" Third aunt too way, "this old lady, when does she leave?"
Gu Qingzhou smiles.
She thought, the old lady is about to leave.
If Gu Qingzhou had not been injured for many days, she would have dealt with it.
The injury was just right, and it was the governor's office. Gu Qingzhou had to polish it one by one, and let the old lady be arrogant for a few days.
In the afternoon, she went to her room to review her lessons and did an afternoon arithmetic project. She didn't come downstairs until half past four.
Gu Xiang and Gu Ying are already dressed up and waiting to start.
Gu Xiang is a black evening dress with a dark black British Wind cloak; Gu Ying is a light pink cheongsam with a pure white cashmere wind cloak.
The two sisters put on light makeup and made their hair. Their eyes were covered with thick bangs. Behind them were curly hair. They were fashionable and beautiful.
Compared with them, Gu Qingzhou's dress is nothing new, she is still those clothes, simple hair.
Five aunts too birthday, not lively, only a small flower hall, placed four or five tables, are five aunts too own relatives and friends.
Naturally, Mrs. Si will not come.
But the younger generation of the Si family all gave the concubine face and all attended.
Si qiongzhi was also present.
Seeing Gu Xiang and Gu Ying, Si qiongzhi was stunned, but he felt funny.
"I've spared no effort to take advantage of my family!" Si qiongzhi smiles softly.
She was wearing a snow colored dress with a pearl comb. The warm light of the Pearl reflected her face and her skin was full of brilliance.
"Sister Gu." Si qiongzhi came forward with a gentle attitude and said hello to Gu Qingzhou, but there was no gap.
Gu Qingzhou smiles: "miss qiongzhi is so beautiful tonight!"
What day am I not beautiful?
This words, the division Qiong Zhi can't hear praise, in the heart disdain way.
As they spoke, they did not see her.
In the banquet hall, in addition to Wu Yitai's relatives and friends, some upstarts in Yuecheng came to flatter her.
The noble spirit in the flower hall is a little heavy, heavy to vulgar.
XiuXiu, the maid who is close to Wu Yitai, came up to Gu Qingzhou and said, "Miss Qingzhou, my aunt, please come to her room to talk."
Gu Qingzhou nodded and went to Wu Yitai's room.
Aunt Wu is still making up.
Her hair had not yet been curled up, and it was scattered over her thin shoulders, making her neck more slender.
"... light boat, thank you for coming." Aunt Wu was a little nervous, "my first birthday."
"Is it?" Gu Qingzhou thought a little.
Aunt Wu nodded: "once upon a time, but this time it was my wife and miss qiongzhi who said that I was wronged and asked the governor to help me celebrate my birthday and appease me."
Gu Qingzhou smiles.
As she spoke, she got up and handed a watch to Gu Qingzhou: "you treat my illness and give you a diagnosis, which seems to treat you lightly. This watch is a kind of thank you."
Gu Qingzhou holds it in his hand.
She looked at it a few times and then said to her fifth aunt, "I'll go to the bathroom."
Five aunts too pointed to the left: "just go out."
Gu Qingzhou went to the bathroom and took the watch apart.
Watches imported from Switzerland are exquisitely made.
Gu Qingzhou with the help of lights, with his hairpin in the silver pin, finally found something unusual in the watch.
She put the watch in place.
When she came out of the bathroom, Mrs. Wu saw Gu Qingzhou with her watch on her wrist.
Aunt Wu was so happy that she said with a smile, "this watch looks good with you."
Her gift is valuable, and she is in a good mood.
Gu Qingzhou said, "if you don't mind, I'll do it for you."
The fifth aunt looked at the light boat's hair too much. It was loose but not messy. There were a few wisps of slanting, lingering around the snow-white neck. It seemed that she had a good look.
"Good." Five aunt too way.
So Gu Qingzhou helped aunt Wu to pull her hair. She flipped her fingers and took shape in a moment.
Dressed up, when they went to the flower hall, XiuXiu, their maid, suddenly said, "aunt, the path in front of us seems to be flooded. Don't get your shoes wet. Let's go around from the West."
From the west, you will pass by the external study of the governor.
Wu Yi didn't think much about it. Gu Qingzhou's eyes were quiet and followed Wu Yi Tai He XiuXiu.
When she got to the back door of the outer study, XiuXiu's foot sprained suddenly. She cried out: "Ouch!"
"Who is it?" In the dark, there was the sound of a gun loading.Aunt Wu is too confused.
Gu Qingzhou quickly answered: "it's Wu Yitai!"
Under the eaves of the study, an adjutant came out. He was wearing a military leather raincoat and carrying a heavy gun. He saluted Wu Yitai and said, "Wu Yitai, the governor is not at home today. You can't get close to the outer study."
"I'm not going to the study. I'm going to the flower hall by a detour." Five aunt too way.
Three women walk around quickly.
After a few steps, she was further away from the outer study. Aunt Wu looked back at the outer study and thought, "the outer study is heavily guarded tonight. There must be something very important. I'm afraid of being stolen."
At this time, the wife proposed to hold her birthday and bring so many guests back. In case of a mistake, aunt Wu always felt that something would happen.
"Does Madame mean it?" Aunt Wu thought. "Will you set me up?"
She was even more uneasy and went to the flower hall.
Five aunt Taihe XiuXiu, look a little change, only Gu Qingzhou leisurely, into the flower hall.
