Chapter 176: Wedding dress

The person who came was Madam Du who was next to Madam Hou Mansion.
Mother Du smiled all over her face, and when she entered the flower hall, she greeted Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Xie.
Then he said: "When my wife returned to the house, she heard that Miss Xiao Jiu had kept the kitchen in order. The guests were very satisfied with the water table and were extremely happy.
No, I sent a servant girl specially to thank Miss Xiao Jiu first.
My wife said that today is too late to prepare. Gai Minger will send a gift to Xiao Jiu, Jane, and Shan respectively. You have worked hard these days. "
The eldest wife Zhang smiled, and she glanced at Xie's first, and then said: "The lobby's wife is too polite. Xiao Jiu, please hurry up and thank you."
Gu Jiu stepped forward, "Please also thank the auntie in the lobby for my mother. I just did what I should do. I can't afford the auntie in the lobby to take so seriously, so I specially let the mother take a hard time. Mother must have tea. Go again."
The eldest wife Zhang nodded, "Mother Du is drinking tea."
When the maid served tea, Madam Du sat down and talked.
She said: "Girl Xiaojiu is humble. My wife said it, thank you for your decisiveness, the Hou Mansion did not lose face in front of the guests. My wife also said that Girl Mei has to learn from Girl Xiaojiu, and don't stick to the form in everything. Don’t hesitate when it’s time to work around."
The eldest wife Zhang looked at Xie with a smile, "It's still the insightful sister-in-law, brother and sister, what do you think?"
Xie's embarrassment was so embarrassing that he wanted to find a place to sew in.
It was just said that Gu Jiu had lost the face of the Hou Mansion. As a result, his wife, the head of the Hou Mansion, sent someone to thank Gu Jiu.
Isn't this slapped?
Xie’s face was ugly and his tone was impatience, and said,
Sister-in-law in the lobby is naturally reasonable. I’m tired, so I’ll go back to the room and rest first. Here, I’ll greet my sister-in-law who has worked hard.

After finishing talking, Xie’s family left his sleeves no matter what others thought.
The eldest wife Zhang raised her eyebrows, shook her head, and said to Madam Du, "Mother Du has tea. The second wife is also very old, and she has worked hard in the palace for a few days, so she should take a good rest. Please don't take offense."
Madam Du smiled clearly and said: "The eldest wife has worked hard for a few days, and she should rest earlier and take care of her body. If the slave and maid are going back to life, she will leave first."
"Grandma sit down for a while."
"No, my wife is still waiting for the slave and maid to return to life. Another day when she has time, she will come back."
"Peony, send it off to mother."
Peony took the order and sent away Madam Du.
The eldest wife Zhang said to Gu Jiu: "Xiao Jiu, you know your wife's temper. Don't take those words to your heart."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips, and said, "Don't worry, auntie, I am very thinking about it, and I won't take what the wife said to my heart."
"That's good."
Gu Jiu bid farewell to the Zhang family and returned to Zhilan Academy to rest.
Madam Du returned to the Hou Mansion and met the eldest wife, Xiao Wei.
"Girl Xiao Jiu is very polite, telling her servant, she must thank her for her."
The eldest wife Xiao Wei nodded, "Xiao Jiu, this child, has never made any mistakes in the rules. I heard that she was in the palace for a few days and learned the rules of the palace from the mother. Now the etiquette is more thoughtful."
"What the madam said is. But the second wife in the mansion next door looked displeased. It seems that before the servants left, the second wife was berating Miss Xiao Jiu, blaming Miss Xiao Jiu for her proposition, and lost Hou Mansion and Gu. The face of the house."
The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, sneered, "Where is Brother Xie worried that Xiao Jiu will lose the face of the Hou Mansion? She is obviously worried that our Hou Mansion will be blamed and will be implicated in her head, eager to separate the relationship.
This lady really looks down on her, too petty, and likes to be smart, always saying something out of date. "
Madam Du said: "She is a concubine righteous, so naturally she can't ask too much."
The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, snorted, "Fortunately, Mrs. Ben doesn't have to be an elder sister with Xie. It's just a bitter sister Zhang, and I'll be angry with Xie all day long."
Madam Du said: "The madam is really right. But fortunately, the second wife and Xie's family broke off. But there is less trouble."
The eldest wife Xiao Wei gave a sneer and said, "If the Xie family does not cut off contact with the Xie family, the Hou Mansion will have to force her to sever the relationship with the Xie family. Gu Zhili did a reliable thing and took the Xie family Stay at home and prevent her from contacting Xie's family to prevent her from acting as a monster with Xie's family."
Madam Du said: "I just wronged Miss Xiao Jiu. Fortunately, Miss Xiao Jiu's marriage has been settled. The slave girl also heard that the second wife of Xiao Jiu's dowry was bought by Master Gu himself, and the second wife did not interfere."
The eldest wife Xiao Wei laughed when he heard the words, "Gu Zhili is living more and more understanding, it's really rare.
If he had lived so clearly when he was young, he wouldn't be able to do the absurd things of concubine righting.
He was short-sighted, watching Xie Mao become an official of the Eastern Palace, he couldn't wait to straighten Xie's family.
As a result, he shot himself in the foot and was almost killed by Xie Mao. I hope he will learn his lesson and stop doing similar silly things. "
Xie, who was discussed by Xiaowei's master and servant, would lose his temper in the room.
"What the does Mrs. Hou Mansion mean? Is it because I am not pleasing to my eyes? Just when I returned to the mansion, I was impatient to send someone over and thanked Gu Jiu with a good name. She was hitting me in the face."
Xie's expression was distorted with anger, and he picked up the tea cup and slammed it on the ground.
Chunhe hurriedly persuaded: "The wife calmed down her anger. Madam Hou Mansion should have no other meaning, but sent someone over to say thanks."
Xie sneered, then sternly scolded Chunhe, "Nonsense. Do you really think the lady can't guess what happened in our house?
Do you really think she sent Madam Du over here at this time, just a simple thank you?
She simply sent Mother Du over to slap me in the face. She knew I was going to teach Gu Jiu, so she deliberately sent someone over to take my face. It's really deceiving. "
Xie was so angry that he could not choose to speak, and cursed a few words.
Chunhe was nervous and hurried to the door to take a look. Fortunately no one.
If that curse were passed to Madam Houfu's ears, it would be a big trouble.
"Madam, you should calm down first. It's already happened, and it's no use thinking about it. Tomorrow will go into the palace before dawn, and the servants will go to get hot water, and the wife will rest early."
Tired of scolding, Xie slumped on the chair, his forehead twitched with pain.
After entering the palace, she added a migraine problem.
Xie rubbed his forehead, probably because he didn't rest well in the palace before his head hurts.
It's just that the pain is not severe, but it is continuous, and there is no chance for people to breathe.
She was so uncomfortable, and her anger had not disappeared, she was really irritable and wanted to kill.
At this time, the little maid came in to report, "Madam, the three girls are here."
"What is she here for?"
Xie Shi looked impatient.
The little maid shrank, and whispered: "The third girl said that she has something important to report, and it's about Aunt Bai."
Upon hearing the three words Aunt Bai, Xie immediately became energetic. His head no longer hurts, and his anger was suppressed.
"Let her in."
Gu Yue was invited into the room.
"Daughter greets mother? Is mother better?"
Xie beckoned and asked Gu Yue to sit next to him.
"You have a heart. Shaner didn't come, but you did."
Gu Yue suppressed his unhappiness, and said: "These days, my daughter didn't go to the Houfu to help, because she was thinking of her mother and wanted to guard her home for her."
"Oh?"
Xie's looked at Gu Yue again, and he has grown.
Gu Yue said with a low eyebrow, "The mother has been tired for a day. The daughter shouldn't disturb her mother at this time, but the daughter is afraid of delaying things. To my mother, the second elder sister invited two stable wives to arrive for Aunt Bai today. In the house, sneaky, I don't know what I did."
"Really?" Xie's expression was cold, staring at Gu Yue.
Gu Yue nodded, "This is true. Mother can send someone to ask the concierge."
Xie gritted his teeth, "Gu Jiu is so courageous that he dared to ask for Aunt Bai to hold her in private. Aunt Bai saw her, right?"
Gu Yue shook her head.
Xie's snorted, "Bai's bitch, it seems that she can't sit still. If she keeps peaceful, I will treat her decently. But she wants to be a demon while I'm away, no wonder I'm not polite to her."
Xie's mind turned with various thoughts.
All the children in Aunt Bai's belly were boys.
How could Xie be happy to watch Aunt Bai give birth to a child?
Aunt Bai is already arrogant, if she had a son, wouldn't it be even more arrogant.
Gu Yue didn't care about Aunt Bai, she didn't care if Aunt Bai gave birth to a son.
She cares about Gu Jiu.
"Mother, the second elder sister is in charge of privately, and asks a stable wife for Aunt Bai, this must be strange. The daughter thinks that the second elder sister should be investigated carefully."
Xie frowned, "What to check on her?"
"No matter what the investigation, the daughter thinks that she must not let it go. Otherwise, next time the second elder sister will stand up for Aunt Bai and fight her mother."
Xie nodded secretly, Gu Yue said something reasonable.
"I will think about this matter again. Yue'er, you have done a good job this time, and you have not lived up to my years of careful training of you. If you can do things with such care in the future, mother will be satisfied."
Gu Yue burst into tears suddenly, and she cried silently, so pitiful and distressing.
She said to Xie: "The mother's teachings, the daughter dare not forget for a day. In the past, the daughter was too self-willed, betraying the mother's good intentions. From now on, the daughter must be motivated and dare not let her down again."
"Silly boy, what to do with these things. Just remember that everything I do to you is for your good."
Xie took out his handkerchief and personally wiped the tears for Gu Yue.
Gu Yue nodded heavily and hugged Xie's waist tightly.
"The daughter knows that the only person who loves her daughter the most in the world is the mother. In the past, it was her daughter who was too self-willed and didn't know what to do, which made her mother sad again and again. The daughter regretted it, and regretted that it was too late to wake up, making the mother so much troubled for her daughter. "
"Good boy! It's great that you can figure it out."
The mother and daughter hugged each other and wept bitterly.
The two cried fiercely, and after crying, they both felt that their relationship deepened. It seems to be back to the best time in the past.
Xie wiped off tears for Gu Yue and said, "When I'm not in the house, you stare at Aunt Bai for me."
Gu Yue nodded, "Mother don't worry, my daughter will stare at her to death."
Xie's laughed, "I have wronged you these days, you should go back and rest first. I will be my mother and have a good talk with you."
Gu Yue bowed and left, obedient and well-behaved.
Xie's heart comforted, Gu Yue was still saved.
In just a few days, I don't know what irritation Gu Yue has experienced, and he has grown so much.
Chunhe congratulated Xie, "Congratulations, Mrs. Hexi, the three girls are finally sensible."
Xie smiled, "I hope she is really sensible."
Xie decided to investigate for a while to see Gu Yue's performance before drawing conclusions.
In the next few days, Xie and Zhang went out early and returned late, shaking their hands and feet every day with exhaustion.
On the side of the Hou Mansion, Jia Clan will go out for funeral after stopping the spirit for seven days.
On the day of the funeral, the Jia family came and Gu Rui's body recovered.
Gu Rui went out to greet Jia's family in person, with a polite manner, but lacking closeness.
The two families are very restrained, do not want to make a fuss on the day of funeral, let people watch jokes.
Jia family has no children, no one wrestles with spirits. It was Gu Rui who carried this burden.
"She is my person for life, and my ghost for death. I should give her one last ride."
No one said anything to stop Gu Rui from doing this. It is said that Gu Rui and Jia have a deep relationship, but Jia has no luck.
Gu Jiu also went for a ride.
This is the end of Jia's life.
After the funeral, everyone was so tired that they lay in bed for two days.
The Hou Mansion sent a thank you gift.
Gu Jiu, Gu Zhen, and Gu Shan, each of them serves one.
Thank you gift is very precious, four silk, four satin, four cotton cloth, and pearl jewelry.
Ome was very happy to see silk and cotton.
"You can make some new clothes for the girl again. The girl seems to have grown taller during this time."
"really?"
When he heard that he had grown taller, Gu Jiu was happier than anything else.
When she first crossed over, what she complained most was her height and figure.
After nearly a year of recuperation, the effect is very significant.
Gu Jiu straightened her chest and abdomen, which was a little curvaceous.
She called Wang Yi.
Among the maidservants, Wang Yi was the tallest, and his visual inspection should be over 1.7 meters.
Gu Jiu and Wang Yi are back to back than they are taller, and she has reached Wang Yi's ears.
Wow, does this prove that her height has grown from a little short to more than 1.6 meters.
Qing Zhu said: "The girl has grown a lot taller this year. She used to wear short clothes."
Gu Jiu was happy and came in with interest, "Qingmei, take out the clothes I wore when I was ill last year. I have to see how much I grow taller."
Qingmei pursed her lips and smiled, "The slave and maid will bring it to the girl. Fortunately, the clothes were not removed, and a few pieces were left."
Gu Jiu tried a pair of pants first, which were a lot shorter. The trousers reached the calf.
She tried last year's dress again, which was also shorter.
Gu Jiu smiled with satisfaction.
It was not in vain that she worked so hard to restore her body, eat and drink every day, and add tonics.
The hard work paid off, and finally there was a satisfactory harvest.
Qingmei said: "The girl probably has to continue to grow taller. When making new clothes, she has to leave a few centimeters of curling. In this way, after growing tall, you only need to put the curling on to make it fit."
Gu Jiu said to Qingmei, "You can make up your mind about this."
Green Bamboo came in from the outside, "The girl’s wedding gown must also be made quickly. The slave-maid heard that the third girl’s wedding gown is being made by the lady in the sewing room. In this way, the needle and sewing room does not have time to make the wedding gown for the girl. On our own."
Qingmei said, "I didn't expect the sewing room to make the girl's wedding gown from the beginning. Qingzhu, you have to put aside the errands on your hand, and you have a good needlework. You and me will make the girl's wedding gown."
Qing Zhu nodded and responded, remembering another thing, "It takes a lot of gold thread to make a wedding gown. What should I do?"
"Ask the sewing room." Qingmei said to Gu Jiu again: "Girl, the slaves go to the sewing room and ask them for gold thread."
Gu Jiu said: "Don't worry, let's say hello to the aunt in advance and let the aunt come to make arrangements."
Qingmei thought for a while, "The servant girl should go to Sister Shaoyao first. Sister Shaoyao speaks better."
Gu Jiu nodded, "Go ahead. Have a good chat with Sister Shaoyao."
Shaoyao was supposed to accompany his wife Zhang into the palace, but she stayed in the palace because of the cold weather and the congestion of her nose in the past two days. Changed other people to accompany the elder wife Zhang into the palace.
Qingmei found her and brought her a prescription.
"My girl ordered me to give it to you. Try it. The effect is very good."
Shaoyao hurriedly said, "Thank you for thinking about me, the second girl. I ate the old prescription left by the original doctor, but the effect was not very good. Your prescription was just rainy and solved my problem. Otherwise, those women should be behind. Talking about me, saying that I have a lot of things, and if a little wind is cold, I have to ask a doctor, so I really think I am a deputy lady."
"Don't worry about those women who chew their tongues, their faces are disgusting."
Qingmei and Shaoyao talked, and talked about the need for gold thread for wedding dresses.
Shaoyao asked: "The second girl is married to the grandson of the emperor. The gold thread on the wedding dress must be missing. If it is missing, it will be faceless and will be laughed at.
The wedding dress of the third girl needs four or two gold threads. The second girl’s wedding gown is less of a gold thread.
When my wife comes back, I will bring this up to her. Go back and tell the second girl that I will take care of this for you. "
"Thank you Sister Shaoyao."
