Let go of the villain and let me come

Huali waved her hand casually and said, "Then there will be Nanny Lao! I'm a little tired, so I'll take a rest first."

The nanny hurriedly said she didn't dare.

Huali went back inside and lay down, sniffing the faint fragrance of orchids on the quilt, and slowly closed her eyes.

Today's trial, she did not fail.

In her opinion, Gu Qing, who only knows how to wield knives and guns, is actually rough and fine, and he himself has a very high sense of vigilance.

She clearly wanted to get close to her just a moment ago, but she didn't know why, so she suddenly pretended to be dizzy and fooled herself.

Originally, she thought that she could be in a more flowery courtyard, but in the end, she was thrown into such a secluded, desolate and dilapidated guest room courtyard.

Pooh!
So dilapidated, even worse than the guest room!
But it doesn't matter, all she needs is to successfully attend some banquets held by the famous noble mansion by relying on the connections and status of the Gu mansion.

Only in this way, can she meet the noble son of a famous family!

The next day, Gu Ling went to pay his respects to the old lady, and found that Huali had arrived earlier than himself!

She took out a series of things that she sewed by herself, and also presented a brocade box, which turned out to be 80-year-old ginseng!

People from the second and third rooms have arrived one after another.

The whole hall was full at once.

Not to mention gorgeous, it really pleases many people.

Gu Ling is just casual, she will not be jealous.

The whole family lives under the shade of her parents, so why should she care about their joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys?
"Old lady, the eldest princess has sent an invitation card, saying that she is inviting the ladies, wives and young masters of our house to the banquet on the ninth day of next month." Handed it up.

A look of joy flashed across the old lady's face, and after a gesture, the nurse next to her went over to accept the invitation, and then presented it to her old man.

"Old madam, this is the invitation card of the princess's mansion. Look, it's just a new season, and the maids don't have any clothes or jewelry!" The mistress of the second room immediately jumped out, saying meaningfully .

The rest of the housemates also let go of their past grievances, crying more fiercely than one another, that their daughters are short of food and clothing.

Noisy and upsetting.

Gu Ling looked at it coldly, pursed his lips and said, "Aunts, what do you mean, the food and clothing expenses of each room have been deducted? This is easy to say. I just recently studied the account book, and I have some results. How about I check the account books of the past ten years in the past few days, so as to give some aunts and sisters justice?"

Check the books?
As soon as everyone heard this, their complexions immediately turned ugly.

They just cried and complained as a matter of routine, and by the way showed the old lady how thrifty they are and how they don’t spend a lot of money. How did it turn into the need to check the account books?
Because General Gu and his wife, who are the masters of the entire Gu mansion, are not here, so the concubines of these few houses have filled their own pockets.

If it is found out, wouldn't it be a reason for the old lady to separate?
"Hehe, Qing'er, you just like to joke! Forget it, you are just going to a banquet, so why do you need so many clothes and jewelry?" The aunt of the third room forced a smile, and took the lead in expressing her attitude.

Immediately afterwards, the second room and the fourth room also expressed their views.

Gu Ling naturally received the resentful stares from the sisters.

"It doesn't matter whether you make clothes or jewelry this time, I'm going to hand over the account book to Qing'er and the girl Chanjuan for review. In the future, the head of our Gu family will be selected from the two." The old lady struck while the iron was hot, announcing made his own decision.

"For the second and third family, you should take back the pair of cards as soon as you go back. Since the manager has changed, you will naturally have to take back the old pair of cards. After that, Qing'er and Chanjuan who are the manager want to How to reconcile the accounts, or what tokens are needed to withdraw large amounts of money, are up to the two of them!"

"Yes, mother-in-law!"

The two felt unwilling, but they could only swallow this breath.

But neither of them is ready to give up just yet!
Having already tasted the benefits of being in charge, how could it be so easy to get the meat out of your mouth?
Gu Ling knew very well that this was a test for her and Chanjuan by her grandmother.

And the few families who didn't have the power to control the family looked at each other, and they all saw the deep meaning of this move.

The old lady is going to choose the next Patriarch of the Gu Mansion!

Then, the head of the family will naturally be the next mistress!

Who wouldn't want a piece of the housekeeping power?

Each of them had their own calculations in their hearts, so it was inevitable that they would feel restless. After exchanging a few pleasantries, they all said goodbye and left.

When only the old lady and Gu Ling were left, she took Gu Ling's hand and said, "You should be careful in everything about the flower viewing party at the Princess's Mansion, even though there are many rules in the big family, but often the secretive things are not good." Little. If you don't pay attention, you will become a stepping stone in her hands! You are the treasure of the Gu family, and no mistakes are allowed!"

"Grandmother, don't worry, Qing'er will definitely keep it in mind and won't worry you." Gu Ling comforted the old lady for a while, and when Chanjuan came back, it seemed that she had something to report, so she found an excuse to come back.

After leaving the Songhe Garden, I saw the graceful and gorgeous Li, she smiled eagerly and came over and said, "Sister Qing'er, what a coincidence, I'm going to pay my respects to the old lady."

"Grandmother Xijing, don't bother her when you're free." Gu Ling said bluntly.

Seeing her face, she looked like she didn't want to see her, she was very angry and unwilling.

But for the sake of her life-long event, she still forcibly suppressed this unwillingness, and said with a bright smile on her face: "Yes, yes, it's because I didn't think carefully! Thank you, sister Qing'er, for your suggestion! I heard that the long-term The princess sent an invitation to the manor, Sister Qing'er, can you please bring me along that day? I have admired the eldest princess for a long time, and I really want to see the person I admire with my own eyes!"

When she was talking, it was very appropriate to show that she was the eldest princess's little fan girl, Gu Ling said with a half-smile: "Gorgeous girls are begging like this, I can't make you come back with regrets, how about it, You will go with me that day."

"Yes, thank you, Sister Qing'er!" Hualili was ready to be rejected. She had already planned to secretly hire a carriage to follow her, and pretend that the wheels of the carriage were broken halfway. , to see if I can meet someone else's noble daughter or lady, she can just come up with Gu's gimmick and go to the banquet with her.

The calculation was pretty good, unexpectedly Gu Ling didn't make things difficult for her, which made Hualili feel a little better in her heart.

"It's just that I'm afraid I'll make Sister Qing'er laugh if I say it. Lili has been displaced all the way, and the family's property shop was taken over by the tribe. The nanny and I only brought some money along the way, so we reluctantly rushed to join my sister. Said To tell you the truth, I only have two sets of clothes and jewelry..." Huali hesitated to speak, but expressed her embarrassment and financial embarrassment to herself.

She found out clearly that Gu Qing is the most forthright person, and he has a lot of money in his hands, he will definitely sympathize with her experience, and will give her the best clothes from Embroidery Village and precious jewelry from Zhenbao Pavilion.

"Miss Lili, you don't need to underestimate yourself. The eldest princess has always been diligent and thrifty. She is a well-known simple and noble lady in Fanyang City. You don't need to stick to those glamorous things, just be yourself." Who knew that Gu Ling didn't follow her routine at all, but instead gave her a few examples of noble daughters and wives who were diligent and thrifty in managing their families, so that she wouldn't have to be so inferior.

She was so gorgeous that she almost vomited blood!

Who is inferior?

He just wanted her to buy some clothes for him and order a few sets of jewelry and headgear, so where did he go wrong?
Did she really not understand what she meant, or did she send her off on purpose?

Looking at the sincere expression on Gu Ling's face, Huali felt that she was thinking too much.

Humph--

She really deserves to be a barbaric woman who grew up at the border!

Vulgar, sloppy, and ignorant of the world!

How can there be any reason to go to Laide girl's house and not prepare a few new clothes and a few sets of hair for her?
Hualili was unhappy in her heart, but of course she was not short of money, so she could only tell the nanny to go out carefully, buy two sets of hats for herself, and a few sets of ready-made clothes to wear first.

She didn't believe that the eldest princess would really like her plain dress.

Elderly wives like to see young and pretty girls dressed brightly, so that they will also be in a good mood.

but--

Her heart moved, and she saw that Gu Qing's figure, except that she was a little taller than her own, was actually about the same as her own.

Can I take her clothes?
In this way, wouldn't it be cheaper to act?
"Sister Qing'er is right. I don't understand many things in Fanyang City when I'm new here. Why don't you tell me more about it, Sister Qing'er?" Hualili rubbed her way over, and used her fat to push away the maid beside her. Holding Gu Ling's arm tightly, he said innocently.

This is, what's the idea?
Gu Ling smiled, took a few glances at her and held her hand, resisted not brushing her away, pursed her lips and said, "If that's the case, follow me back!"

Huali was really worried that she would not want to.

Unexpectedly, Gu Ling really agreed.

Followed Gu Ling to her yard, this was the second time she came to this yard!

She still remembers the decoration inside, it is absolutely luxurious!
This is the wealth and honor of the General's Mansion!

"Sister Qing'er, these clothes of yours are so beautiful! I have never seen many styles before! Ah! And these faces, too delicate!" Hualili chattered and commented on Gu Ling's clothes and jewelry, blah It made the maids not have a good face.

Gu Ling chuckled lightly and said, "Do you like it?"

Hualili's eyes lit up, here she comes, she is finally not so careless!

"Of course I like it! Sister Qing'er, you don't think I'm ignorant and have no discernment, do you? In fact, I..." Huali immediately put on a white lotus face and began to talk.

Gu Ling interrupted her and said, "The reason why I bought them at the time was because they looked good! Oh, sister Lili, you really see the same thing as my hero, haha..."

Yingge directly covered her mouth to prevent herself from laughing out loud.

The rest of the second-class maids couldn't help laughing too.

Only Huali was tongue-tied, never expecting such a magical turn.

Shouldn't she go along with the flow and let her choose some clothes?

They are all old clothes she wore herself, why are you so stingy?

In short, when it came to the day of the banquet, Huali did not find a piece of clothing from the ladies of the Gu family as she wished, not even a single hairpin.

In desperation, she had no choice but to let the nanny go to a street shop overnight to buy.

The next day, she was wearing a dress of the same color as before, and she also had a hosta on her head. She twisted her slender waist, and stood prettyly outside the carriage waiting.

Many people passed by and subconsciously fixed their eyes on her.

Someone asked, this girl is unfamiliar, who is the daughter of the Gu family.

"She is the cousin of the Gu family, not the girl of the Gu family." One person said mysteriously: "You must ask, ah, which cousin of the Gu family, right? In fact, she is almost It is three thousand miles away, and has no blood relationship with the Gu family. A while ago, Gu Qing, the eldest daughter of the Gu family, was engaged to the Zhou family son, and this one is actually the cousin of the Zhou family son!"
