As soon as Si Xingfu woke up, it was dusk.
The treacherous sunset light came in from the window lining and dyed the room golden.
Gu Qingzhou is still sleeping.
He pushed her.
"Don't make any noise, sir." She murmured and turned to sleep.
Si Xingfu laughs. She's very precious and charming. Of course, she's also a little smart and cute.
He got up and got out of bed. Sister Zhu and other people had left. Downstairs was empty, so quiet that only his footsteps echoed in the room.
Si Xingfu tied an apron, steamed rice, fried two dishes - shrimp fried eggs, vegetable fried Artemisia, and then the chicken soup at noon hot.
Gu Qingzhou woke up and smelled the aroma of rice.
Her stomach ached with hunger.
After a simple wash, Gu went downstairs in a light boat. She thought it was Mrs. Zhu in the kitchen, but she saw the secretary who was wearing an apron. He was tall and brave. He was as handsome as a gun with a spatula.
Gu almost dropped his chin.
Who can think of the murderous commander in chief to wash his hands and make soup?
She stood at the entrance of the stairs, not daring to go down.
But the back of his head looked like his eyes: "wash your hands and eat!"
Gu Qingzhou made a sound.
Through the floor to ceiling windows of the dining room, the sunset glow is enchanting and charming, which dyes the Linen Tablecloth red.
Gu Qingzhou sat at the dinner table, and Si Xingfu brought her some dishes, saying, "eat more."
His face melted in the setting sun, gathering the evil spirit, leaving only beauty.
He's really the best looking person he's ever seen in a canoe, though he's extremely abnormal and disgusting.
At this moment, Gu Qingzhou ate sweet rice and delicious shrimp. She thought, "Si Xingfu is not totally mad. When he gets up normally, he is pretty good..."
although he is rarely normal.
This is his second time cooking for Gu Qingzhou.
Eating people's mouths short, Gu Qingzhou heart evaluation of his time, inevitably lost the fair.
After supper, Si Xingfu sent Gu to go home.
No one in Gu's family knows where Gu Qingzhou is going, only when she goes to Si mansion or Yan mansion.
The next day, it was sunny.
In early spring, the willow buds are sprouting, the green branches are swaying in the wind, and the plane trees outside the window of the light boat are also covered with a layer of thin emerald yarn.
Gu went to St. Mary's school in a light boat and joined the class until the senior year. Her adoptive father, Yan Xinnong, arranged Gu Qingzhou for Yan Luoshui's class.
Church schools are all girls.
Where there are girls, it is necessary to form cliques and fight openly and secretly.
Yan Luoshui is clean and self-sufficient. She doesn't follow the gang or form an alliance in the class. She is almost an independent individual. Her father is a senior officer of the military government, but no one is higher than her except the daughter of the chief inspector, so no one dares to deceive her.
Gu Qingzhou, the fiancee of Shaoshuai simu and the adopted daughter of Yan's family, became the focus all of a sudden.
There was a lot of discussion among the people, including everything they said.
Gu Qingzhou doesn't care. She goes in and out with her sister Yan Luoshui.
She is obedient and hardworking. Although she is a student in a class, she does well in other subjects, including the most difficult English and Bible, in addition to her calculation. The Mies like her.
Gu Qingzhou is very gentle. If you don't say anything, the Mies at least like her humility and meekness.
Gu Qingzhou's third sister, Gu Wei, returned to school, while the fourth, Gu Ying, dropped out of school at home.
This is another focus.
Gu Wei also has her gang at school, seven or eight girls, forming a small group.
"Sister!" Gu Wei is very enthusiastic about Gu Qingzhou, and even actively adheres to it.
Among the sisters, Gu Qingzhou always thinks that Gu Wei is the most cunning. Her mind is far better than Gu Ying, even better than her elder sister Gu Xiang.
"Sister Yan!" Gu Wei is more enthusiastic about Yan Luoshui.
Yan Luoshui doesn't want to give Gu Wei face.
Gu Wei's decency, that is, Gu Qingzhou's decency, Yan Luoshui knows how to tolerate.
Soon, the school came out, Gu Wei is Yan Luoshui's good friend.
As a result, Gu Wei's position has risen, and she has become the leader in that small group.
"I don't care." Yan Luoshui said with a smile, "light boat, soldiers come to cover the water, I'm never afraid of others using me. Who dares to take advantage of my real mistakes, I will make up for them. "
Gu Qingzhou smiles.
She believes in Yan Luoshui. Yan Luoshui looks harmless to human beings and animals, but in fact, he is very smart.
It's March.
Gu Qingzhou has been at school for a month.
For a whole month, Gu Wei has been very attentive to Gu Qingzhou. Even Gu Wei's classmates are all called Gu Qingzhou by elder sister and elder sister.
At home, Qin Zheng also recovered her gentleness. Even the old four Gu Ying, who was a straw bag, was not slow and did not cry.
Gu Qingzhou gets on well with them. Gu understands that they are calculating.
What exactly is the plan, Gu Qingzhou does not know, she is waiting.
"This is the calm before the storm." Think of the light boat.
I just don't know what's going on.
One evening at dinner, Gu Ying, the fourth, even said to Gu Guizhang, "Abba, it's hard to study. I'd rather play with sister at home!"
This may be Gu Si's idea, but Qin Zheng will never allow her to tell Gu Guizhang in person.
Gu Guizhang hates his daughter's lack of morale. If Gu Si talks like this, he will decide his future. Especially when she was dropped out of school now, if she spoke like this, she would lose Gu Guizhang's favor.
But Gu Ying said.
Gu Qingzhou savors their every move, especially Gu Wei in school. Gu Qingzhou smiles, and she can vaguely guess their intention.
Gu Qingzhou quietly watches the opera.
Gu Guizhang slapped his chopsticks on the table, glared at Gu Ying and said, "a fool who has no future knows how to play!"
Gu Ying is scared and sobs.
"Don't be angry, master." Qin Zheng Zheng play round, "Ying Ying Ying is not promising, fortunately we have a boat, she finally gave the master long face."
Gu Qingzhou was admitted by the superintendent, which made Gu Guizhang more surprised. At the same time, she became Yan Xinnong's adopted daughter.
Yan Xinnong, the second in command of the governor's army, is also a powerful figure in Yuecheng.
If you can make friends with Yan Xinnong...
"if you are half smart and sensible, I will be relieved." Gu Guizhang pointed to Gu Ying and scolded him.
Grumpy as Gu Ying, he didn't resist. He bowed his head and was scolded. Gu Qingzhou smiled.
There is a plot indeed.
Gu even knew what to say next.
"Together, their sisters are not as good as canoes!" Qin Zheng sighed, "isn't it disrespectful that we don't invite Yan's family to come here to visit, sir?"
This is just in the mind of Gu Guizhang.
Gu Guizhang was eager to invite Yan Xinnong to join him, but he hurried to make friends with him, for fear that he would be too sad to eat and lose face.
Qin Zheng Zheng mentioned that Gu Guizhang took advantage of the slope to go down the donkey and said: "it's the same thing. Since we have become righteous relatives, we should always come and go. "
He turned to Gu Qingzhou and said, "Qingzhou, invite your adoptive father and adoptive mother to come here this weekend?"
"The adoptive father has gone to the residence and will not come back this month; the adoptive mother is not in good health and cannot go out." Gu Qingzhou said with a little regret, "Abba, how about next time?"
Gu Guizhang's thin lips were slightly pursed. He was a little angry and snorted.
Gu Guizhang seems arrogant, but in his heart he is extremely self abased.
Qin Zheng smiles instead.
Everything is expected by Qin Zheng.
Gu Ying and Gu Xiang also exchanged a look, thinking that Gu Qingzhou was stupid.
"I did well at dinner." Before going to bed, Qin Zheng went to Gu Wei's room and conspired with his daughters.
The fourth Gu Ying shows his pride.
"Next, it's up to vivi." Qin Zheng is to Gu Weidao.
The third Gu Wei nodded, "don't worry, mummy, I'll never make a mistake."
Qin Zheng Zheng is satisfied, and touches Gu Wei's head.
Gu Ying, the fourth senior, approached the zither and asked, "Muma, if this is successful, can I really study in England?"
"Sure!" Qin Zheng said with a smile, "you are so beautiful and smart. Now you are just dropping out of school. You are not in good health. It's not a shame.
In the future, I will come back from England, just like your elder sister is a lady. You are more beautiful than Gu Qingzhou. You can marry better than her. "
Gu Wei, the third senior, also yearns for something.
"What about me, mom?" "I also want to go abroad," Gu Wei asked
"Are you afraid that you will have no chance in the future after you have done this? I heard that the eldest young master of Yan's family is a professor of German school. " The voice of Qin Zheng is lower.
Gu Wei is very ambitious.
Great, she can also go abroad. Like her sister Gu Xiang, she can paint a layer of gold powder and come back. She can marry high in the future.
"Muma, we will guard against taking care of the light boat this time. We will never see the flaws by her like last time." Gu Wei promised.
Qin Zheng nodded: "don't worry, it's safe this time!"
Dinner time a speech, already entered the heart of the light boat.
She calmed down and didn't show anything in front of the zither.
She lies on the milky white balustrade of the balcony at night and blows. In March, the thin cold disappears, and the night is warm, mellow and sweet, with the fragrance of peach core.
There are still people in the hall on the first floor. The lights are still on. They come out from the wide and transparent floor to ceiling windows. They dye a peach tree in the courtyard with brilliant colors. The peach core looks like a crystal coat.
When the wind passes through the eaves, the wind bells ring, and the spring wind is charming and lingering.
Gu Qingzhou's eyes slightly gaze, quietly thinking about things.
"Suddenly mentioned the Yan family, and also mentioned the old four drop out of school, it seems that Qin Zheng has a new idea..." Gu Qingzhou thought.
Gu Qingzhou has not yet fully established his feet, and the zither is like a tree born here. It is intricate and intricate. If you want to uproot her, you need to involve all parties.
"If you can't cut a big tree with one axe, you have to deal with it one by one." Gu Qingzhou suppresses the anxiety in his heart and calms himself.
What Gu Qingzhou does now is to cut off the roots of the zither a little bit.
When the time comes, the Qin Zheng will fall down and never get up again.
Their mother and daughter's plan can be vaguely guessed by Gu Qingzhou.
