Chapter 680: The widowed sister-in-law is beautiful but has a tragic fate (8)
Gu Zhen didn't know that she and Madam Jun had invisibly awakened the heroine's "escape" consciousness through their conversations, and they went to the front yard with the dishes.
There weren't so many rules and regulations for a small gathering of the master's family. Madam Jun pulled Gu Zhen and Qingzhi to sit together. She didn't want to sit at the same table with several men, so she set up a small table for herself and poured some peach blossom wine that she brewed herself.
Qingzhi looked at Xie Songhan awkwardly. The other party's eyes fell on her hands for a few seconds, then nodded, agreeing that she could sit at the same table with her master's wife.
After eating and drinking, Gu Zhen was forced by Mrs. Jun to drink a few glasses of wine. Her cheeks were red, but she was still conscious.
Qingzhi was obviously drunk, his eyes were hazy and he was smiling foolishly with his cheeks supported.
It was time to leave, so Xie Songhan and Wen Zhao stood up and said goodbye.
Qingzhi became bolder after drinking. He hugged Gu Zhen's arm and didn't want to leave. He wanted to talk to Sister Azhen for a few more words. A trace of barely perceptible anger flashed across Xie Songhan's eyebrows. This was the first time that Qingzhi disobeyed his orders.
Xie Songhan still looked so gentle, but people who knew him knew that he was in a bad mood. Chang An's heart trembled, and he was about to go forward to help Qingzhi up.
As soon as his hand touched Qingzhi's arm, Xie Songhan glanced at him coldly, and Chang An dared not move.
Xie Songhan bent down, picked up the person, and strode towards the carriage.
Wen Zhao scratched his head. His senior brother was fine just now, why did he suddenly get angry?
"A Zhao, let's go too." Gu Zhen looked clear-headed and his eyes were shining. He was also a little drunk.
Wen Zhao had no choice but to bid farewell to his master and mistress, and walked out side by side with Gu Zhen. They didn't have a carriage, so they had to walk up the mountain. Now was a good time to digest their food.
When he went out, Xie Songhan's carriage was leaving. The curtain at the window was blown by the wind, revealing a corner. Xie Songhan was kissing someone inside, and he didn't pay attention to the outside world. He was seen by Gu Zhen and Wen Zhao.
Wen Zhao immediately lowered his head: "Don't look at anything indecent, don't look at anything indecent..."
This is the second time! What's wrong with this brother?
Gu Zhen chuckled: "A Zhao, don't follow your senior brother's example and take in some maids. When you marry in the future, you can't take concubines or have maids. Do you understand?"
"It's unfair to both women!"
Look at the heroine. She is so depressed that she even dares to get drunk. Who knows how the hero will deal with her when she goes back today.
Xie Songhan had everything arranged for him since he was young under the strong influence of his parents. Nothing around him could go according to his own preferences.
Only the heroine was taught by him carefully, bit by bit, every move and every word, until she became the person he liked.
This time, he worked for the emperor in secret without telling his parents, and used a little trick to get his mother to send Qingzhi to him as a concubine. This was a rebellion that Xie Songhan had planned long ago.
Everything is under his control.
But how can a person not have his own thoughts? Sooner or later, Xie Songhan will pay the price for his desire for control.
Wen Zhao nodded at the side: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I won't do that. Look at Master and Master's wife, they are so happy. It will be a blessing to be able to live in seclusion in Taoyuan like them and accept a few disciples in the future."
Mrs. Jun suffered a miscarriage in her early years and was unable to have children. Jun Xinhuai came to Qinghe Town to avoid the rumors in the capital.
"Sister-in-law, Master and Senior Brother have already written a letter of recommendation for me today. When I arrive in the capital, I can go visit my uncle. Under his guidance, I will definitely not fail the exam this time."
In addition to his literary attainments, he could also learn more about political affairs.
Gu Zhen understands, commonly known as predicting the topic.
"Then let's set off as soon as possible. It will take quite some time on the road. We should get to the capital as soon as possible so that we can settle down sooner."
.
Plans are not as fast as changes. When the two men bid farewell to their teacher and set off for the capital, it was already the beginning of spring of the next year.
This winter was very cold, and Gu Zhen didn't want to suffer on the road, so she simply took Wen Zhao home and waited for a few months.
Wen Zhao asked Gu Zhen to close the wonton stall and sold all the utensils to the owner of the noodle stall next door. In order to supplement the family income, he returned to his old job of copying books for a bookstore.
Without telling him, Gu Zhen secretly went to the embroidery shop and sold a few patterns, making a small profit, which she put into her own pocket.
The night before leaving, Wen Zhao used the money he earned from copying books to buy a silver hairpin for Gu Zhen.
This made Gu Zhen feel very guilty about hiding her private property. To be honest, Wen Zhao was very kind to her from the bottom of his heart.
Even water for washing feet was provided at night.
Now at home, she basically doesn't have to do any housework except when Wen Zhao goes to Jun Xinhuai's place to study.
Wen Zhao is a very hardworking person and a master of time management. He probably only needs to sleep two or three hours a day.
Before going to bed and after waking up, Gu Zhen could see him reading by candlelight.
Holding the hairpin, Gu Zhen suddenly felt it was hot.
"Aren't you saving money to buy that set of 'On Historiography'? Why are you buying me jewelry? I don't need it." Gu Zhen pushed it back.
"I have bought the books and have enough money. I'll give you this hairpin. I've seen you never wear any jewelry. My brother is not around, so it's only right that I buy it for you."
The boy's eyes were clear, without a trace of impurities. Gu Zhen knew that he always felt that the Wen family had let him down, and he always wanted to do something to make up for it.
But in fact, in the original owner's heart, living in the Wen family is much more comfortable than living in his own home.
Take her mother's family for example. Gu Zhen had been here for more than half a year, and the only time they came to her house was to borrow money, but she beat them out. She still remembers their murderous faces clearly.
It didn't matter to the original owner that she had to endure a few harsh criticisms from her parents-in-law. It was better than worrying about being sold out all the time.
Gu Zhen took the hairpin and said, "Okay, I'll take it."
"I'll buy something better for my sister-in-law later," Wen Zhao smiled shyly, "I can only afford this now, but my sister-in-law is naturally beautiful, and she looks good in anything she wears."
He was not exaggerating. After not seeing his sister-in-law for three years, she looked more beautiful than before, and had a more calm and peaceful temperament.
"Then I'll wait." Gu Zhen smiled and inserted the hairpin into her hair, "Does it look good?"
Wen Zhao suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. He scratched his head, said something nice, and ran out. "I'll go get some hot water."
Gu Zhen knew that he was going to get her footbath water again.
Not to mention the brother-in-law, even his own son might not be able to do this.
Wen Zhao has been filial and sensible since he was young, and is the hope of the whole family. Gu Zhen suddenly understood why the original owner believed that he would be successful, firmly believed that he would repay her kindness, and was willing to bet her entire life on him.
He is indeed a trustworthy young man.
