Chapter 317 Hostility

Gu Huayu and her group followed Yang Jing to the living room.

Gu Huayu looked at the upper woman, who had her hair **** in a high bun with a hollow orchid hairpin. She applied a little makeup on her face, and there was a bit of contempt in her almond-shaped eyes, which made her somewhat graceful face even more arrogant. .

Mrs. Ping stood up and came over to greet her. Introduce Princess Qing'an and Princess Zeyuan to Mrs. Ping.

After greeting each other and taking a seat, Princess Jinglian waved to Gu Huayu, "Yanran, come and sit next to me."

Gu Huayu smiled and responded: "Okay!" As she said that, Gu Huayu walked towards Princess Jinglian gracefully.

 Princess Jinglian and Princess Qing'an sit together at the top. To Princess Qing'an's left is Princess Jinglian, and to her right is Princess Zeyuan.

Gu Huayu sat next to Princess Jinglian. Princess Jinglian leaned over and whispered, "Stay a little longer today. I have something to do with you."

 Gu Huayu nodded obediently, "Okay!"

Seeing the intimacy between Princess Jinglian and Gu Huayu, Princess Zeyuan said deliberately: "Sister Jinglian, I will hold a poetry meeting in the mansion on the first day of the Lunar New Year. You should be honored and come to sit in the mansion."

After hearing Princess Zeyuan’s question, Princess Jinglian sat up straight and asked, “Is it the first day of the new year?”

 “Yes, the first day of the new year.”

Princess Jinglian replied apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to go on the first day of the new year.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the old lady gave a haircut ceremony to Yanran. Everyone in our family would go over to watch the ceremony that day.

 Next time, when you hold a poetry meeting, let me know in advance and I will definitely go and have a look. "

Princess Zeyuan originally wanted to interact with Princess Jinglian and demonstrate to Gu Huayu.

　　I didn’t show my authority, but I was slapped in the face.

Zeyuan’s expression instantly changed, and he was so embarrassed that he didn’t know what to do.

Seeing her daughter's face darken, Princess Qing'an calmly took over and said, "Is Yanran doing the hairpin ceremony on the first day of the new year?"

The eldest princess’s words made Mrs. Wang a little embarrassed, and she was thinking about how to answer.

He leaned forward and said, "Princess, yes, Yanran's birthday was originally the first day of October.

 Due to something else, I postponed the haircut ceremony to the first day of the winter lunar month. I didn't expect that the poetry meeting at the eldest princess's house would conflict. I'm really sorry. "

 Mrs. Wang’s words were extremely polite and her attitude was respectful.

Princess Qing'an said: "Madam, there is no need to apologize. Getting hairpins is a great gift. The poetry festival can be held at any time. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, we will come over to join in the fun and enjoy Yanran's blessing."

At this point in what the eldest princess said, it would be a bit disrespectful if she didn't say any more invitations.

Mrs. Ping leaned forward and said, "It is Yanran's blessing that the princess can come here. I would like to thank the eldest princess for her kindness."

Princess Zeyuan did not expect that her mother would go to watch the ceremony, and she was quite dissatisfied.

Of course, although Princess Zeyuan was dissatisfied, she did not dare to lose her temper in public with the matter decided by Princess Qing'an.

At this moment, Gu Huayu took a serious look at this princess who looked arrogant from head to toe. The lotus silk pipa-breasted blouse and the five-color brocade plate and gold-embroidered silk skirt, with her skin as smooth as fat and her exquisite facial features, can be regarded as a beauty of the generation. If her face were less arrogant, it would add a lot of beauty to her.

Gu Huayu saw that Su Zeyuan's face was as dark as constipation, and gave her a cold look from afar.

Gu Huayu was a little bit dumbfounded. It was neither that she refused to let her hold a poetry meeting, nor that she invited her to watch her haircut ceremony.

 This account should not be placed on her no matter what, right?

Princess Jinglian leaned towards Gu Huayu and whispered: "Ignore her."

Gu Huayu withdrew her gaze and stretched out her hand to pick up the teacup on the table.

“What did sister Jinglian say to Yanran?”

Gu Huayu stopped holding the cup and looked up at Su Zeyuan, sensing Su Zeyuan's hostility towards her from her angry face.

Gu Huayu was a little confused by the hostility. She didn't want Jinglian to be angered, so she raised the cup in her hand and said, "Princess, let me try this tea, good melon slices, I like the taste."

Gu Huayu’s explanation stimulated Su Zeyuan, “Why are you drinking melon slices too?”

Su Zeyuan's tone was as if Gu Huayu's drinking of melon slices was a grave sin.

Gu Huayu raised her eyebrows and said calmly: "Yes, I like to drink melon slices, and everyone close to me knows it. What? Princess Zeyuan also drinks melon slices?"

Seeing that her daughter was losing her temper, Princess Qing'an took over with a smile, "Yes, Zeyuan also likes to drink melon slices. I didn't expect Yanran and Zeyuan to have the same hobbies. Now that you have something to talk about, you can play together more in the future. "

As she spoke, Princess Qing'an gave Su Zeyuan a warning look, not allowing her to do it again.

 Gu Huayu smiled and leaned forward and said, "It's quite a fate. Thank you, eldest princess."

The servant came in and said, "Madam, Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Zhang from Privy Huang's residence came over to add makeup to the young lady."

Mrs. Ping leaned towards the eldest princess of Qing'an and said: "Elder princess, please sit down while I wait for my wife to greet the guests. Princess, let's talk to the eldest princess."

Princess Qing'an said: "You're welcome, Yingzi, go and get busy."

The eldest princess of Qing'an chose to go to Shi's Mansion today to add makeup, that is, people who spied on Huang's Mansion would come to Shi's Mansion today, especially to meet Mrs. Shen from Huang's Mansion.

After Mrs. Ping left, Princess Qing'an whispered to Zeyuan: "You need to remember the purpose of our trip."

Gu Huayu seemed to be drinking tea carelessly, but her attention was on Princess Qing'an and her daughter.

Although her hearing is not as good as before, she can still hear things clearly at such a close distance.

 The purpose of this trip? Isn't the purpose of their trip to add makeup? Is adding makeup just a pretense?

The room was silent for a moment, and Princess Qing'an turned to talk to Mrs. Ping about household matters.

Princess Jinglian had never had a good impression of the eldest princess who acted according to the circumstances, so she allowed her to speak and ignored her.

Instead, he whispered to Gu Huayu and said, "Privy Privy Huang's wife Shen and Wanfu's Shen are cousins.

 The Shen family of Wanfu dared to bully the old lady because of this person who was supporting the Shen family. If Mrs. Shen makes fun of the old lady later, you don't have to give her face. "

 “Thank you princess, I understand.”

 After a while, Mrs. Ping led Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Zhang in.

There are two princesses at the top. The visitor first greets the two princesses, and then greets everyone present one by one.

Mrs. Shen has not seen Mrs. Ping for a long time, and she did not expect to meet her here today.

He smiled and said: "I haven't seen my old sister for a long time. I went to Wanfu a few days ago and heard that my old sister moved out of Wanfu. Where does my old sister live now? My eyesight is not very good. I am still used to living outside. ?"

 The words that seem to be concerned are actually heart-breaking.

No one present is stupid. Who can't hear Shen's ridicule? The room fell silent for a moment.

Before Mrs. Ping could reply, Gu Huayu said first, "Thank you, Mrs. Shen, for your concern. My grandmother is living with me now.

We are currently living in a house on Wutong Lane.

 The house is not big, it only has three rooms, which makes my grandmother feel a little wronged.

But fortunately, the princess mansion rewarded by the emperor has been completed. In a few days, we will move to the Princess's Mansion on Yongchun Road.

Also, Mr. Shen is not very familiar with my grandmother. My grandmother’s eye disease has recovered, as everyone who is close to us knows.

By the way, my grandma embroidered a purse for me two days ago, and I still have it with me today. Just this, a gentle and soothing peony flower, isn’t it beautiful? "

As Gu Huayu spoke, she took out her purse and held it in her hand to show it to everyone.

Princess Jinglian took it and looked at it carefully for a while, and praised: "The old lady's craftsmanship is amazing, the embroidery is meticulous, the colors are elegant, and the flowers are brought to life by your embroidery. Is this the Su embroidery method used?"

Mrs. Ping smiled and said: "Princess has good eyesight, and it is the Su embroidery method. I haven't embroidered for many years, and my hands are raw and not as good as before."

 I am not very satisfied with this. I originally wanted to embroider it again another day, but Yanran insisted on bringing it out and showing off her shame! "

Mrs. Shen’s old face was extremely embarrassed. She smiled and found a step for herself. “Sister, I am so lucky. When I grow old, I will enjoy the blessing of a granddaughter.”

At the Shi Mansion, Mrs. Ping didn't want to disturb the good things of the Shi family with others, so she smiled and said, "Thank you. Thanks to my sister's good advice, I am blessed by Yanran. Please take a seat, sister."

Princess Zeyuan stood up and offered her seat, "Old lady, sit here."

Mrs. Shen said hurriedly: "Princess, please sit down. I can sit here, old lady."

Princess Qing'an said: "Zeyuan is a junior, so he should give up his seat. Madam, please take a seat."

Seeing that the eldest princess had spoken, Mrs. Shen no longer refused and sat on Su Zeyuan's seat.

 Then let’s have tea and talk about family affairs.

Princess Jinglian turned her head and asked in a low voice, "Yanran, are you good at Qianjin Prescription?"

Gu Huayu raised her head to look at Princess Jinglian, lowered her voice and asked: "Who is watching? Princess yourself?"

 Princess Jinglian nodded: "Yes!"

Gu Huayu asked: "What's wrong? Irregular menstruation or something else?"

"Menstruation always takes seven or eight days to complete. I have been married for several years and I really want to have a child, but I have never been able to do so. I asked the imperial doctor in the palace to diagnose me and took several prescriptions, but it didn't work."

Gu Huayu said: "It's hard to feel the pulse here, let's take a step and talk."

Princess Jinglian nodded and said: "Okay, you come with me."

Princess Jinglian stood up, took Gu Huayu's hand and walked out. She said to Mrs. Ping, "Mother, Yanran and I will leave for a while."

Mrs. Ping just thought they were going to show respect and nodded: "Go ahead."

Princess Jinglian took Gu Huayu to her courtyard, leaving only Fanxing, the maid who was waiting closely, by her side.

After taking Princess Jinglian's pulse, Gu Huayu asked, "Princess, did you suffer from colds when you were a child? When menstruation comes, your stomach will have a dull pain, the blood will be dark red, and there will be lumps? Every menstruation will be ticking for several days."

Jinglian's eyes were shining, and she nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's it. Yanran, am I sick? Can it be cured? Can I have a child?"

Gu Huayu said: "The palace cold is a bit serious, but it can be cured. My eldest sister was much more severe than you before, but she has recovered. This year, she gained a big fat boy."

"Really? What do I need to do?" Princess Jinglian asked anxiously.

Gu Huayu said confidently: "Princess, don't worry, I will give you a recipe later, and you will be fine after a while."

Princess Jinglian stood up and bowed deeply to Gu Huayu, "Yanran, thank you, you are my great benefactor. If you are of any use to me in the future, just ask."

"Family, why are you so polite! Let's go. It's not good to be away for too long. Let's go back." Gu Huayu said with a smile.

 Gu Huayu and Princess Jinglian returned to the living room together.

Princess Zeyuan glanced at her coldly. Gu Huayu didn't know why this person was hostile to her.

“Auntie, try this golden cake roll, it was sent here by someone sent by my concubine.”

Gu Huayu reached out and took a piece with a fork and put it in her mouth.

 Princess Jinglian asked: "How is it? Do you like it?"

 Gu Huayu nodded, swallowed the food in her mouth, and replied: "Not bad, very soft, sweet but not greasy."

 “Then eat more!”

 Princess Jinglian handed the plate to Gu Huayu's hand.

Gu Huayu took the plate, lowered her head and started eating.

“If that child Xuemei was half as sensible as that child Zelian, neither government would have reached this stage.”

“Thank you to the eldest princess for your understanding. The eldest princess also knows that Xingye will be the head of the house in the future, and his daughter-in-law will be his good wife, helping him take care of everything in the house.

I really admire the second wife of Marquis Yong'an. I will discuss it with our old man later and see what the plan is for Xingye.

 Although marriage is the order of parents, we are also an enlightened family and cannot ignore the feelings of our children.

I hope the eldest princess can understand that if we can renew our fate, I am very willing to marry the Su family. "

Hearing this, Gu Huayu looked up and saw Princess Qing'an smiling and nodding: "Okay, I'm waiting for the good news from the old lady.

I have watched this child Xingye grow up, and the prince and the old lady in the palace like him very much. If this marriage can come true, it will be regarded as fulfilling the wishes of the two elders. "

Mrs. Shen said with a smile: "It is his good fortune that Xingye can be appreciated by the eldest princess. I will reply to Lord Chang'an as soon as possible."

Gu Huayu’s brows knitted when she heard this. Are all the men in the world dead? The Marquis of Yong'an wants to curry favor with the family who aborts his granddaughter's marriage.

The conversation between Princess Qing'an and Mrs. Shen refreshed Gu Huayu's understanding.

After lunch at Shi Mansion, Gu Huayu left Shi Mansion with Mrs. Ping and Mrs. Wang.

After leaving Shi Mansion, Gu Huayu said: "Grandma, aunt, it's still early, let's go to Yongchun Road first to see what else needs to be purchased."

Mrs. Ping nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."

Gu Huayu said to Qingyu: "Go to the old house on Yongchun Road."

Mrs. Ping's eyes suddenly turned red when she looked at the Hua Mansion that had been built according to its original appearance.

Mrs. Wang advised: "Auntie, don't cry. We should be happy. Han Ru will feel relieved after seeing her."

Mrs. Ping wiped the corners of her eyes and nodded: "You are right, you should be happy."

Gu Huayu accompanied Mrs. Ping. After Mrs. Wang walked around for a while, she said, "Grandma, how about we move here on the tenth day of the lunar month?"

Mrs. Ping thought for a while and said, "Okay, the tenth day of the lunar month is the death anniversary of your father and mother. Let's move here on the tenth day of the lunar month to worship them."

Mrs. Wang asked: "Do we have to entertain guests during the housewarming? If we entertain guests, isn't time a bit tight?"

Gu Huayu said, "Please, it's not a big deal, just ask people close to you to release the letter. Let the enemies know."

Mrs. Ping understood what Gu Huayu meant and asked with some worry: "Yanran, are you ready?"

Gu Huayu nodded, "Grandma, don't worry, everything is ready."
