marriage contract

"Just a girl?" Gu Chengzhi's expression and tone were very calm, and the suppressed anger could only be seen in the depths of his eyes.

Jasmine's heart skipped a beat unconsciously, she lowered her head and responded, "Of course it's a girl."

The Chu family has few heirs, and there are many people in the house of the four married masters, but there are only two children born.

Except for the young master who was born by Grandma Chu, there was only the second young master who was born by Aunt Sun in the second master's house.

Over the years, the old lady of Chu has also worried about the children of the Chu family. Almost all the maids with her have been used as housekeepers for the men in the family, but no child has been born just like this.

Originally, Jasmine thought that she would also be a housekeeper, but she never thought that Mrs. Chu would let her go to the third house.

It's not that Sanfang is not good, Chu Junyi is also a direct descendant of the Chu family if he doesn't want to be favored. It is better to have the word "di" than concubines. Moreover, Sanfang has no common room or concubine room. If she can stand firm, Afterwards, no one can surpass her.

But the peony that was sent earlier was beaten to death under the order of old master Chu, which made Jasmine a little startled.

Especially on the second day after Chu Junyi woke up, rumors spread among the servants that Chu Junyi and his concubine were in conflict with each other, and they even cited events more than ten years ago as evidence.

Jasmine wanted to be an aunt, even if she wanted to be a roommate, it would be better than pulling her out to match a kid.

When they were with Mrs. Chu, they were treated better than ordinary girls, but who can guarantee that they can choose a good husband, if they marry the wrong one, their life will be over.

In comparison, being an aunt to the men is the best way out, but Shao Yao's bones are still alive, and Jasmine doesn't dare to show her head.

When she heard Gu Chengzhi ask her this, Jasmine's heart came alive again.

Mrs. Chu smiled and said, "It's good to be a girl now." As for whether to be a girl or a concubine in the future, it depends on whether Jasmine's methods are clever enough and whether she can win over men.

Gu Chengzhi glanced at Mrs. Chu indifferently, then turned his head and asked Jasmine, "You just want to be a girl, don't you want to be an aunt?"

Jasmine's breath was suffocating, her heart was beating fast, how could she not want to, but she couldn't say the words, "Slaves listen to the master."

Gu Chengzhi sneered in his heart, his eyes were deep and dark, "That's just right, my attendant hasn't married yet, so I won't have to arrange someone."

Like a blooming flower withering in an instant, the faint blush on Jasmine's face faded in an instant, and she raised her head and looked at him in disbelief.

"Since the old lady wants to give it, then I will be disrespectful." Gu Chengzhi smiled lightly.

"This girl is for Xiao Liu!" Old Madam Chu was in a hurry.

Gu Chengzhi's expression didn't move, he just suppressed his smile, "So in the old lady's heart, I can't be considered a third-bedroom person."

The old lady Chu choked for a moment. She didn't regard Gu Chengzhi as a member of the Chu family, but she couldn't say such things.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Chu quickly rescued her and said: "That's not what the old lady meant. You see, this girl was sent to serve you, but you just matched up with the boy, isn't it to disappoint the old lady?!"

"Yes! That's what I mean!" Mrs. Chu saw her daughter-in-law paved the steps, and immediately came down, and said confidently: "How can you give away the things given by the elders!"

Gu Chengzhi looked at the "things" sent by Mrs. Chu but didn't answer.

Mrs. Chu thought about what he said just now. Could it be that Gu Chengzhi fell in love with this girl and wanted to take her back as a roommate? !

Thinking about it, Gu Chengzhi has been married to the Chu family for more than a year. He is almost 20 years old but now has no children. Maybe he is a little impatient.

Anyway, Jasmine was going to be sent to the third bedroom, it didn't matter whether she slept with the two of them or not.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Chu smiled a little more kindly, "Since I gave this girl to your third room, it is natural that you have the final say."

Gu Chengzhi glanced at Mrs. Chu again.

Seeing that there was no emotion on Gu Chengzhi's face, Mrs. Chu thought that he was still upset about what happened just now, she pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "It's just a girl, if Gu Sanye wants to, just speak up, old lady I always feel sorry for the junior."

Gu Chengzhi didn't answer, but looked at Jasmine, and said calmly, "What do you say?"

The situation was reversed so quickly that Jasmine hadn't recovered her senses. When she understood the meaning of Mrs. Chu's words, her surprise was beyond words, and she knelt down on the ground and said softly, "Everything is up to Mr. Gu."

Gu Chengzhi snorted coldly.

Mrs. Chu only thought that he couldn't save face, and said very understandingly: "In that case, let's set up two tables of banquets, and it will be very lively."

Seeing that Gu Chengzhi still had no intention of opening her mouth, Jasmine endured her shame and said, "This servant will definitely take good care of Gu Third Master... and Sixth Master."

"That is to say, you want to be an aunt?" Gu Chengzhi narrowed his eyes slightly, and changed the topic, "Do you know that he is against concubines?"

Jasmine naturally understood who he was talking about, but from ancient times to the present there was only talk about restraining wives and husbands, and restraining concubines is nonsense no matter how you look at it.

It is better to be a concubine than to continue to be a girl, and Jasmine would not let go of this opportunity, and immediately said: "Liu Ye is a lucky person, and slaves will be careful, and will never do anything to hurt Liu Ye. "

"Very good!" The corners of Gu Chengzhi's mouth gradually curled up, and a cold light grew in his eyes.

Just when everyone in the room thought the matter was over, Gu Chengzhi suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Jasmine's neck.

A room full of women watched Jasmine's face turn from pink to white, from white to red, and finally to blue-purple.

Gu Chengzhi chuckled and turned Jasmine's face to those pale-faced women so that they could see it more clearly.

"You, you, you..." Mrs. Chu clutched her chest, repeated the word "you" several times without uttering a complete sentence.

"The old lady said she was giving her a girl, but it's a pity that this girl has too much heart, knowing that she is against the master, but she still wants to come in." Gu Chengzhi sneered and said slowly: "The intention is to murder the master, confuse the old lady, and trap the old lady in the house." What is the value of living in such an unfaithful and unjust place in a place that is neither kind nor merciful?"

After saying this, Gu Chengzhi grabbed Jasmine's neck forcefully with one hand.

There was a dead silence in the room.

"I know the old lady was deceived by this girl." Gu Chengzhi withdrew his hand, took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, then raised his head and smiled, "So, you're welcome."

Jasmine fell to the ground, her head and body forming a strange arc, her face was facing them, her eyes were wide open, her entire face was blue and purple, and her expression was full of horror. She just stared at them with a terrified expression.

Not to mention these pampered wives and grandmas, even the girl standing beside her was about to faint from fright, but Gu Chengzhi still looked at them with a smile on her face, which made them dare not even faint, for fear of doing something. The second Jasmine.

Gu Chengzhi was already tired of the Chu family, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the previous petty troubles, but the matter of Shaoyao really touched his bottom line.

But Shaoyao died, and the servants in the Sanfangyuan also dealt with it. If he is pursuing it, it is because he has to be reasonable and merciless.

Since Chu Junyi said that Mrs. Chu would still make troubles, he just waited.

In addition to spreading those things in private during these days, Chu Junyi is still bedridden. If Mrs. Chu can't catch Chu Junyi, she can only target him.

People are going to be killed, but they also have to be killed with confidence.

Fortunately, Mrs. Chu kept talking, otherwise Gu Chengzhi really didn't have the patience to talk nonsense with Jasmine.

The old lady Chu said "you you you" for a long time, and finally choked out a complete sentence, "How dare you?!"

The female family members of high-ranking families pride themselves on being generous and benevolent. Even if they beat and punish people, they seldom kill them.

They would not watch the execution, let alone such a dead person. Now seeing a girl being strangled to death alive in front of their eyes, one can imagine the shock they received.

All of them were pale and stiff, and they looked no better than Jasmine on the ground.

Even Mrs. Chu froze and didn't dare to move, but Mrs. Chu hated it so much that she could bear it better than her daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law. She slapped the table and shouted angrily: "My girl, how dare you Move! You, you...you are unfilial!"

"Look at what the old lady said, this girl wants to murder the master, so she doesn't regret her death." Gu Chengzhi's smile didn't change, his eyes deepened a bit, and even his voice lowered, "Jun Yi is my man, Whoever wants him to die, I will kill him!"

The old lady Chu shivered for a moment, only feeling a chill.

She had heard this sentence before, and her most promising son, who was also the most disobedient son, also said similar words.

At that time, he knelt in front of Old Master Chu, with an extremely resolute attitude, and almost rebelliously forced Old Master Chu to dispose of the concubine she had given him.

That was her son, the son she conceived and gave birth to in October, but ended up disobeying her mother for a woman and their son.

The old lady Chu was about to bleed with hatred in her heart. She didn't expect that after so many years, someone would say the same thing.

Before this breath came up, he fainted.

Gu Chengzhi didn't move, and the others didn't dare to move either.

Only then did they remember that Gu Chengzhi was a general who had killed people on the battlefield, he was not a frail scholar.

Maybe he was enduring for various reasons in the past, but now he doesn't intend to bear it anymore, the ferocious minions exposed are enough to tear anyone or anything that stands in his way.

Gu Chengzhi didn't do anything extra, but just sitting there made them feel like they were in a bloody execution ground, and the executioner was watching them one by one.

When the old lady Chu fainted, a girl exclaimed, but she stopped abruptly under Gu Chengzhi's calm gaze.

"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you check on the old lady's situation." Seeing that no one dared to move, Gu Chengzhi said with a smile.

After receiving the order, the maid quickly surrounded the old lady Chu, fearing that something might happen.

"Go get the imperial physician." Gu Chengzhi said to the girl beside him, "By the way, go to my yard and ask two people to come over."

As soon as the girl heard Gu Chengzhi's words, her legs almost went limp, and she scrambled out of the yard.

Because Gu Chengzhi had no intention of leaving, the girls and women in the room did not dare to move, so they had to let the old lady Chu lie on the Luohan bed, and then stood aside.

And the wives and grandmas were also at a loss. At first, their hands and feet were cold from fright, but when they regained their strength, they were suppressed by Gu Chengzhi's aura.

His expression was not scary, but when he looked at them, he seemed to say: If you dare to move, dare to speak, dare to leave, the one on the ground will be your end.

Seeing their quail appearance, Gu Chengzhi also had a sneer on his face.

He never took those methods of dealing with women seriously, but in the end he stumbled on them. Since they wanted to play, he would play big games with them.

The wives and grandmas couldn't sit still, not only because of their physical stiffness, but also because of their psychological pressure.

Especially the half-smile on Gu Cheng's face, as if he wanted to encourage them to be the next Jasmine.

Just when the atmosphere in the house was deadlocked, two women entered the courtyard.

"Throw it into the mass grave and burn it directly." Gu Chengzhi pointed at the corpse on the ground, his eyes slowly sweeping over the female relatives in the house, "It's not easy for such a thing that betrays the master to destroy the bones and ashes. Bar?"

His tone was soft, but what he said made people's hair stand on end, and his teeth chattered.

Jasmine's body was taken away, and Gu Chengzhi didn't tell them to leave, but just picked up the cold tea and drank it one by one.

He wants to see if anyone dares to go out without his permission.

Facts have proved that there is really no one who is desperate, and no one dares to move without authorization until the imperial physician enters the door.

Gu Chengzhi got up to greet him, and stood beside Mrs. Chu together with the imperial physician.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, the imperial physician unconsciously glanced at Gu Chengzhi.

Gu Chengzhi's expression was calm, and he said in his mouth: "Today, there is a lowly servant girl who confuses the old lady with the intention of murdering the master. The old lady fainted from anger, and I hope the imperial doctor will treat her as soon as possible."

Seeing that there was no objection in the room, and the imperial physician didn't say much, after the pulse diagnosis, he prescribed a prescription, and said something to pay attention to before leaving.

Gu Chengzhi stood in the room, nodded in satisfaction, the imperial physicians were indeed very knowledgeable.

"The old lady is so enraged by the lowly servant girl that she faints, you take good care of her." Gu Chengzhi glanced at the girls and women in the room, saw them nodding desperately, and then looked at the wives and grandmas again, "If there is no I left first."

The wives and grandmas nodded stiffly, they wished that Gu Chengzhi would leave quickly.

"If there is something to do..." Gu Chengzhi immediately became nervous when he saw them, and said the second half of the sentence with a light smile, "You can still find me."

Seeing Gu Chengzhi's leaving back, everyone present was relieved, and they all had one thought in their hearts: It's best not to see Gu Chengzhi again in this life.

After leaving the courtyard, Gu Chengzhi didn't go back, but went to the old man Chu first.

He briefly explained everything that happened today, in case someone stabbed him in this matter.

Old Mrs. Chu never cared about the affairs of the inner courtyard, but when she heard that Mrs. Chu was giving someone away to the third room again, she immediately felt a headache.

Moreover, what Gu Chengzhi said was well-founded, and he quickly convinced Mrs. Chu.

Old Mrs. Chu's attitude can be seen from the matter of Shaoyao, he has no intention of interfering with the affairs of the third room, and he must not like Mrs. Chu's self-assertion.

Gu Chengzhi just stoked the fire a little and then left. He didn't care about the inner court, so this step was enough.

Seeing Gu Chengzhi returning with a smile on his face, Chu Junyi felt strange.

He knew that Gu Chengzhi had gone to the old lady Chu's place. The old lady Chu was determined to make things difficult for them, so what could make him come back with a smile.

Moreover, he called two people away from the courtyard just now, and he couldn't understand what Gu Chengzhi had done.

Seeing that he was curious, Gu Chengzhi was not in a hurry to say anything, he sat down at the table and poured a cup of tea, drinking it slowly.

Chu Junyi was almost suffering from internal injuries, and he walked around Gu Chengzhi twice before he could speak.

Seeing that he was about to get anxious, Gu Chengzhi stretched out his hand and pulled him to sit beside him, and then talked about the incident in the old lady Chu's courtyard.

Chu Junyi was dumbfounded when he heard it, and he didn't recover until Gu Chengzhi finished speaking.

"Thank you." Chu Junyi's first words after returning to his soul were to thank him. At least half of the reason why Gu Chengzhi did this was because of him.

Gu Chengzhi smiled, patted his head, got up and went to the study.

It has to be said that Gu Chengzhi's killing of chickens and monkeys that day was very successful.

Originally, the Chu family regarded them as air, but now they treat the people in the third room as scourges and avoid them.

Those who were in Mrs. Chu's main room that day all fell ill after returning home. The imperial doctor looked at each of them one by one, and the whole Chu family was filled with the smell of medicine.

Regarding this, Gu Chengzhi laughed it off.

Time always flies, and the first snow after winter is very heavy.

Chu Junyi huddled beside the stove, looking up from time to time to look outside.

The door was pushed open, and Gu Chengzhi walked in.

"You should come back after the snow is a little lighter." Chu Junyi got up and helped him pat the snow on his body, but a layer of snow accumulated on his body after walking from the front study to the main room.

"It's not in the way." Gu Chengzhi brushed off his sleeves, held Chu Junyi's hand, and then took out a post and handed it to him, "Look."

After receiving the post, Chu Junyi didn't read it immediately, but took Gu Chengzhi back to the bedroom, and handed him a set of clothes.

Gu Chengzhi took it with a smile, without shy away from it, and changed it directly.

Chu Junyi's cheeks were slightly hot, he turned his head away, and only then opened the post.

Gu Chengzhi moved quickly, changed his clothes in a few moments, stood beside Chu Junyi, and said softly, "Pack up your things and leave when the snow stops."

"But..." Chu Junyi pursed his lips, "It's not good to take me with you."

"It's nothing bad." Gu Chengzhi touched his face, "It's written in the post, it's okay to go together."

"But..." Chu Junyi hesitated.

This is a post from the Prince's Mansion, please Gu Chengzhi to stay at the hot spring villa in the suburbs for a few days, Jin Rong will send this post to the children in Beijing almost every year, this matter is also acquiesced by the emperor.

In previous years, Uncle Chu would go, and he would add a Second Master Chu.

In terms of Gu Chengzhi's relationship with Jin Rong, it's normal to receive this post, but with him...

"I will not leave you alone in the Chu family." Gu Chengzhi's voice was soft but firm, "The prince has already agreed, you can just follow me."
