Gu Fuju: ...
"What the Yu couple said is probably true."
He believed it without even having to go to see for himself.
Jia Shan said, "But I just observed her by her bed for a long time, and she is really weak. No one taught her, who could she learn from?"
Gu Fuju: ...
"She..."
"Madam, have you forgotten?"
"Her master's wife in Ze County was once very ill." She
must be very careful when pretending to be sick?
Yaoyao's bedroom was carefully decorated, with excellent lighting.
The bed was hung with soft smoke curtains, and embroidered pillows and brocade quilts were piled up like clouds. Yaoyao, wearing a goose yellow jacket and skirt embroidered with winding plums, saw that there was no one around and no movement outside.
The house was heated by a floor heating system, and she didn't even wear her embroidered shoes. She took some snacks and ran barefoot to the mahogany box as tall as her.
It was full of jewelry. The Empress
Dowager gave it to her this morning.
Her eyes were bright as she rummaged through it.
She picked out the ones she liked and took them out.
But it seemed that...
there was not a single item she didn't like.
As a result, the box became emptier and emptier, while the jewelry piled up on the ground.
Yaoyao stood on tiptoes with great effort, and she almost fell into the mahogany box that was as tall as a person. The edge of the box hurt her waist, and she leaned half of her body inside, groping around at the bottom of the box with her arms.
Just then, she heard the sound of a door being pushed open.
Yaoyao: ???
She got anxious, and then she fell in. The pearl necklace was entangled in her hair, and the gold and silver bracelets hurt her.
It seemed that her forehead hit the thick head, and Yaoyao gasped in pain.
Gu Fuju heard the sound, quickened his pace, and walked around the screen.
He ran to the couch in no time.
She was supposed to lie on the couch to recuperate, but her eyes went dark and she was about to disappear.
Yaoyao didn't care about anything else. When she hurriedly pulled the lid of the box closed, the gilded lock made a crisp sound.
But it was too late. Gu Fuju's bony hands had already pressed against the seam of the box.
And opened it.
He firmly held her trembling wrist as she tried to continue pulling the lid of the box.
Yaoyao's forehead hurt and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes. Before she could find an excuse, she heard Gu Fuju sigh.
What could Gu Fuju do?
Yu Jingcheng mentioned that Yaoyao cared most about her face.
Was he going to expose her?
He could only make excuses for her.
"Yaoyao was on the couch just now, and in the blink of an eye, she was inexplicably in the box, right?"
Yaoyao: ...
She felt it was right.
However, she still lacked confidence at this moment: "Yeah."
Gu Fuju: "The jewelry on the ground has grown legs and ran out by itself."
Yaoyao: ...
You are talking nonsense.
But...
Yaoyao: "Yeah."
It was louder than the previous response.
Gu Fuju looked at the snacks at his feet and ate most of them: "I think a greedy cat sneaked in to eat these snacks."
Yaoyao's voice was particularly loud, and he became righteous and confident, and he did not forget to nod his head: "Yeah!"
"Daddy is right."
Jiashan, who came over with a medicine box: ...
Gu Fuju heard her calling daddy, smiled, wiped the tears from her eyes with his fingertips, took her out of the wooden box, pressed her to sit on the soft stool in front, and said gently: "Yaoyao, don't think of packing yourself in advance as a dowry. Dad and mom are reluctant."
"Come, apply medicine."
His forehead was swollen.
Yaoyao was very confused.
If it were Yu Jingcheng, he would never come in. He would even leave the room if he noticed that she was in the box. He would
wait for the little girl to crawl out, clean up the room, and lie on the bed before coming in. He
would pretend that nothing had happened. Afterwards, Yu Niang would gently lecture her.
The Gu family couple did not seem to want to mention it at all, nor did they mention the Imperial College again.
Gu Fuju: "Tomorrow..."
Yaoyao held her breath.
Here it comes.
Then she heard it.
"Let your mother take you around the mansion.
" Yaoyao was surprised: "That's it?"
Gu Fuju: "You reminded me."
Yaoyao: ...
Sometimes, I really want to slap myself.
Gu Fuju never mentioned going to the Imperial College: "You should call the Empress Dowager in the palace your great aunt. She misses you and gives you jewelry. You should go and pay her a visit."
Gu Wu was in the evening school, and she rushed here as soon as she came back.
Before anyone entered the yard, a voice came in from outside.
"Sister!"
She stepped over the threshold, first called out "Dad" and "Mom" with a smile, then ran straight to Yaoyao.
Yaoyao was about to pat the seat next to her and ask her to sit over.
Gu Wu ran over to complain: "Sister, someone bullied me!"
Yaoyao blinked: "Who is it?"
Gu Wu got angry when she mentioned this: "Shen Zhiyi!"
Yaoyao didn't know him.
Gu Wu: "She actually said behind my back that I was arrogant."
"That's true... she's not wrong."
Although she has only been back for three days, Yaoyao saw a bit of similar temperament in Gu Wu. Of course, she is far inferior to her.
This sister is only sweet in front of her.
Gu Wu was very sad when she heard it. Yaoyao
patted her shoulder: "But she said gossip about you behind your back, which shows that you have bad behavior."
Gu Wu felt a little more comfortable.
Yaoyao acted like a sister, straightened her body a little: "When I was as young as you, I never had conflicts with others."
Obviously, she is only a few days older.
But Gu Wu didn't think there was anything wrong, and even nodded seriously!
Yaoyao: "Others are wrong, it's because they are not good people. If we care too much, then we are not magnanimous enough."
"Stay away from such a mean person in the future."
Gu Wu nodded hurriedly: "I will listen to my sister."
Yaoyao was very satisfied.
Gu Wu: "Although she mentioned my sister later."
"She said I am not good enough, so my sister must not be much better."
Yaoyao:? ! ? ?
"Invite her out another day."
Yaoyao said softly: "I will clean her up and she will be honest."
Gu Fuju:...
Jiashan:...
Gu Wu always felt that something was wrong, but it couldn't be my sister's fault.
She frowned: "Can't my sister go to the Imperial College to clean her up?"
Yaoyao was very worried and said something that Gu Wu couldn't understand.
"If I go, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back."
It's not a good place.
In the next few days, Gu Fuju went out early and came back late, and Gu Wu read every day.
Before leaving, she had to run to say goodbye to Yaoyao.
"Sister, I'm going to the Imperial College."
Yaoyao reminded: "Yes, you must study hard when you go there."
Gu Wu: "Yes!"
Gu Wu: "I love reading!"
Yaoyao didn't understand, but respected.
Yaoyao was also very busy.
The Gu family was really big.
She seemed to have endless places to visit.
Until half a month later, when it was still early in the morning and she was sleeping soundly, she heard Gu Fuju's voice in a daze: "You should be familiar with the family these days."
Of course!
Gu Fuju: "Your mother has taken you to meet the relatives at home."
Gu Fuju: "You have gained back the weight you lost on the journey, and I think you have adapted to the climate and soil in Beijing."
Yaoyao had a bad feeling for some reason.
————
Imperial College.
All the students took their seats, and they were reading quietly, waiting for the teacher to arrive.
Suddenly someone broke in.
"Big news!"
It was Ning Yunling.
He Xuran frowned: "Prince Ning, you are not from our school, so don't bother us."
Ning Yunling sneered and ignored him.
"The Grand Tutor is here! She brought her daughter with her!"
Xiao Huaiyan put down the book in his hand and changed his casual manner.
"Whenever the Grand Tutor comes to teach at the Imperial College, he will bring Gu Wu to the Girls' School. What's so surprising?"
"It's not Gu Wu."
Ning Yunling: "He is holding another one in his hand."
"It's probably the one he hid at home and found." She
looks very beautiful.
Ning Yunling likes her very much!!!
"She just has a bad temper. The Grand Tutor kept pulling her along the way."
"I think she knew she couldn't go back, and she was desperate in the end. It wasn't until she went to the Girls' School that she became energetic again."
"She stood on the podium and told her classmates not to mess with her. Although she is reasonable, she has a bad temper."
"She even asked who Shen Zhiyi is."
Xiao Huaiyan frowned and heard Ning Yunling come.
"Let Shen Zhiyi stand up and teach her a lesson."
Xiao Huaiyan's eyelids twitched. Although the teacher was there, he was still worried and planned to go over to take a look.
Halfway through his walk, he bumped into Wei Zhao's eyes, who were watching the show.
Wei Zhao said in a leisurely tone: "Are you anxious now?"
