Chapter 288 Her Photographic Memory
After all, some bad things happened there.
But to Gu Qingning and Mo Yu, they are all their family members.
Even if there are ghosts... no, they even hope that the ghosts of their family members will come back.
Look at them.
But it’s different for Lu Jingyu.
Lu Jingyu saw the worry in her eyes and held her in his arms.
"Let your father-in-law and mother-in-law see how my son-in-law treats you well."
As for taboos?
For those who have witnessed the massacre since childhood, there will be no taboo in this regard.
Gu Qingning finally realized that he was not trying to coax her on purpose, and nodded solemnly.
The events of the Marquis Ping'an Mansion gave people in the capital a topic of conversation for a long time.
But it was soon replaced by a new topic.
In the blink of an eye, midsummer has passed and the breeze has turned cooler.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.
Although there are a lot of things going on this year, it is the first Mid-Autumn Festival for Lu Jingyu to return to his ancestral home.
Emperor Minghe asked Concubine Rou to take charge of the ceremony and make it a grand one.
Nanny Jiang and Nanny Xu also finished teaching Gu Qingning ahead of schedule and returned to the palace to report to the Queen Mother.
In the Cining Palace, the Queen Mother was teasing a mynah bird that had just started to learn to talk.
The mynah bird looked majestic, as if it knew that its current master was the most honorable person in the entire harem.
Birds always keep their chins raised.
The Queen Mother asked calmly, "Why did you come back early?"
Nanny Jiang and Nanny Xu both knelt down, and Nanny Jiang spoke first.
"In reply to the Queen Mother, we have taught the Crown Princess everything we should teach her."
"The princess is very smart, and she has an excellent memory. She remembers everything very well."
The Queen Mother teased the starling's hand and paused slightly.
"Oh? I'm really surprised to receive such high praise from you two."
Nanny Jiang quickly handed over a booklet with both hands.
"This is a detailed record of the Crown Princess' affairs over the past two months. It also includes her responses to some of the things she has done. Please review it, Queen Mother."
The Queen Mother smiled faintly, "Alright. Okay, you two are tired, go down and rest."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
Sun Fuhai had already taken the booklet and followed the Empress Dowager respectfully.
The Queen Mother had no intention of looking either.
At this moment, the starling suddenly flapped its wings and shouted:
"Never forget what he sees! Never forget what he sees!"
The Queen Mother smiled and nodded at it, "You learn everything you want, but you won't say anything when I ask you to say that the Queen Mother is auspicious."
Myna: "I have a photographic memory!"
Sun Fuhai said quickly: "My lady, I will definitely teach you those auspicious words later!"
If you can't teach it well, then change the bird!
The Queen Mother waved her hands and said, "Never mind, it's nothing, just a beast. Come in, read it to me and see how she has such a photographic memory."
"Yes, madam."
Nanny Jiang and the others recorded it in great detail, especially how Gu Qingning handled several major events.
Of course, her cunningness is also recorded in detail.
Even the Queen Mother raised her eyebrows slightly after hearing these things.
"Who did she learn how to handle those things from?"
Even if she is the daughter of a noble family who has been carefully nurtured, she may not be able to do things so perfectly without any mistakes.
When Gu Qingning was in the Guangping Marquis' Mansion, naturally the Marquis's wife would not teach her so carefully.
Later, Gu Qingning entered the Duke's Mansion at that time.
As for the Duke's wife, Mrs. Feng, it was good enough that she didn't cause trouble for her, so how could she sincerely teach her?
The Queen Mother: "Is there really someone who is so gifted in managing household affairs?"
The Queen Mother didn't believe it.
For some reason, she remembered the phrase 'never forget what she sees'.
In fact, it is indeed related to these.
When Gu Qingning opened a clinic in the capital, most of his patients were noble ladies.
Because there were no clues about the Lin family tragedy, Gu Qingning decided to look for a needle in a haystack.
She asked Wei Shuhe to pay attention to the conflicts and secrets in the mansions and the backyards, and naturally she would know how the mistresses of the house handled them.
Some people handle it poorly, while others handle it brilliantly.
Then, Gu Qingning relied on her powerful memory...
Without any female elders to guide or protect her, she really learned everything on her own, little by little.
After Sun Fuhai told the empress dowager everything recorded in the book, she remained silent for a long time.
Finally, she sighed and said, "Burn the booklet."
Sun Fuhai took the order and immediately went to find a brazier and burned the booklet.
The Queen Mother looked at the jumping flames and shook her head.
It's not easy to have such ability, intelligence and cunning.
It would be better if my background was better.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince people!
**
Gu Qingning had already received the invitation regarding the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet and had prepared all matters in advance.
Xiyao is now more than four months old. The little one is plump, fair and beautiful, and very cute.
Xiyao will also be brought to this Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.
Gu Qingning said with emotion: "In the blink of an eye, it's already the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet again."
Thinking back to the first time she attended, she thought Lu Jingyu was gone.
In the blink of an eye, their family of three will go to participate together.
Lu Jingyu: "Don't worry, I asked Luo Shui to make all the arrangements in the palace in advance, and you and your daughter will not be in any danger."
Gu Qingning’s identity is now completely different from before.
At the beginning, she was just a widow in the Duke's Mansion, even though she was bullied.
As long as the people in the Duke's Mansion don't pursue the matter, nothing will happen.
But now, she is already the royal daughter-in-law.
Xiao Xiyao will definitely be a princess in the future.
If anyone dares to attack the mother and daughter, it would be a slap in the face of the royal family.
Not to mention, Lu Jingyu is now the most popular prince, and he is very protective of him!
Gu Qingning nodded.
On the 15th day of August, the couple packed up and got on the carriage and set off.
When we turned the corner, we saw a horse-drawn carriage in front of us that had broken down and was parked on the side of the street.
Gu Qingning happened to lift the curtain and saw Qin Mingyue who was also lifting the curtain at the same time.
After not seeing each other for a long time, Qin Mingyue has lost a lot of weight.
She no longer had the arrogance and domineering attitude she had as a princess, but instead became very gloomy.
She glared at Gu Qingning gloomily and then lowered the curtain.
Gu Qingning raised her head and saw the mark on the carriage, which read "Marquis Ping'an's Mansion".
Lu Jingyu was holding his daughter and asked curiously, "What are you looking at?"
Gu Qingning: "That carriage belongs to the Ping An Marquis Mansion. I saw Qin Mingyue."
Lu Jingyu: "Ever since Ping An Hou divorced Feng and made Zhao Jing his successor, Qin Mingyue has been fighting for power with Zhao Jing."
Gu Qingning: "I have also heard about this matter."
"Zhao Jing is now the legitimate wife of the marquis, so being a housekeeper is nothing. What is Qin Mingyue going to do?"
Lu Jingyu pinched his daughter's cheeks and said, "Who cares? She will definitely act up again. It's fine as long as she doesn't do it in front of us."
Gu Qingning also nodded.
It seems that the matter of Ping'an Marquis Mansion is not over yet.
But no matter how adults behave, whatever bad consequences they suffer in the end, it is all their own fault.
I hope those two poor children can grow up safely.
Gu Qingning also became a mother herself.
Even though the mothers of those two children are not good people, the children are innocent after all.
Qin Mingyue on this side lowered the curtain, her face looking gloomy and terrifying.
Zhao Jing asked: "Mingyue, what's wrong with you?"
Qin Mingyue sneered, "Okay, Lu Changhui is not here, you don't have to pretend to be nice to me."
"In my eyes, you are even more disgusting than that Feng."
Zhao Jing was not angry either, she said calmly:
"But now I am your stepmother. Mingyue, if you want to marry again in the future, you can only rely on me."
Qin Mingyue: “Not necessarily!”
This time, she took the opportunity of the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet to enter the palace just to pay her respects to the Queen Mother.
She only found out later that the Queen Mother originally wanted to help her get the title of Princess.
The Queen Mother loves her.
Unfortunately, she was angry at the time and the empress dowager did not explain, so she suffered in vain in the Marquis Ping'an's Mansion for more than two months.
During this period of time, Qin Mingyue finally understood.
Only by holding power in your own hands can you do what you want.
Take care of the bitch you want to take care of.
So she didn't want to pay attention to Zhao Jing now.
Later, when the Queen Mother's favor is restored, it will be so easy to deal with a bitch like Zhao Jing!
Compared to Zhao Jing, the person Qin Mingyue hates more now is Lu Jingyu!
Until now, what bothers her most is why Su Tanxin didn't kill Lu Jingyu in the first place?
The carriage of the Marquis Ping'an's Mansion was finally repaired and set off towards the palace again.
I don’t know how long I walked before the repaired carriage stopped again.
Qin Mingyue was a little irritable.
Lu Changhui's carriage was probably about to enter the palace by now, so their carriage had been parked here!
"What's going on?"
The driver immediately said, "My dear madam, the carriage of the Ninth Prince's Mansion is broken down and is being repaired, so it is blocking the road. Many carriages are blocked there."
Qin Mingyue frowned, "Is it the Ninth Prince's carriage?"
The driver said: "It is said that they are the women of the Ninth Prince's Palace."
Qin Mingyue was puzzled.
The Ninth Prince has no wives or concubines, and only a female strategist named Qiu Shui. Where are his other female relatives?
Fortunately, the traffic jam didn’t last long, because if it was delayed any further, everyone would have missed the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.
By the time the carriage of the women from the Ninth Prince's Mansion had its axles replaced and was moving again.
Qiu Shui, who was in the carriage, said coldly:
"Are you sure you want to appear in front of everyone in such a high-profile manner today?"
"Your face isn't healed yet!"
The woman sitting opposite has eyes as clear as autumn water, cherry lips, and a graceful figure.
However, her facial features are beautiful at first glance, but if you look closely, you can see some shadows of old friends.
Because this person was none other than the one who had injured his face in the fire.
Later, Shen Ruoying had her appearance changed by a famous Western medicine doctor!
She has now returned as Qin Tingfang, the adopted daughter of the Ninth Prince.
She has suffered a lot in the past few months.
When the pain was the worst, I couldn’t eat or sleep.
I could only endure it by cursing my enemy's name.
Qin Tingfang smiled and said, "Today's Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet was specially held by His Majesty for his son Lu Jingyu."
"Even though he has not yet been crowned the crown prince, many people are definitely planning how to get their daughters into his backyard."
"Today's Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet will definitely be very lively."
Qiu Shui closed his eyes, "Have you forgotten your identity?"
"You are the prince's adopted daughter, and you are a fallen woman. There is no way you can enter Lu Jingyu's backyard!"
