Chapter 399: I also want to earn some pocket money and spend money

Gu Jiu had countless thoughts in his mind.
Finally, she found that she seemed to have no position to interfere with Gu Ling's decision.
Because she is also the master who decides her own affairs by herself.
She doesn't like other people's interference with her decision. As the saying goes, don't do to others what you don't want. How can she interfere with Gu Ling's decision.
That was Gu Ling's life, Gu Ling's dream and pursuit, which he aspired to do since childhood.
Gu Ling was the first to tell her about important matters concerning her future and life. He obviously wanted to get support from her, not to interfere.
After thinking about everything, Gu Jiu laughed.
She asked again: "Did brother decide?"
Gu Yu said firmly: "It has been decided."
Gu Jiu pursed her lips. Although she was reluctant to bear it, she still laughed, "I support you!"
Gu Ling couldn't believe it at first, he thought he had heard it wrong.
Seeing Gu Jiu's appearance, I am sure of his thoughts.
He heard it right, his sister really supported him.
Immediately afterwards, he was in ecstasy, "Sister, do you really support me? Are you not against it?"
Gu Jiu shook his head slightly, "I support you. But I want to make three chapters with you."
Gu Ling grinned, "Don't talk about the three chapters of the covenant, even if it is the ten chapters of the covenant, I would be happy. You say it, you say it quickly."
Gu Jiu smiled, and then solemnly said: "I want you to put your own safety first no matter where you are or how dangerous you are. I want you to save your life and come back to see me intact. I want to you……"
Gu Jiu choked and couldn't continue.
She turned her head and tried to calm her emotions.
My heart is sore and painful.
She said in a calm tone as much as possible: "I want you to return safely, and you must return completely and safely."
Gu Ling nodded, "Sister, don't worry, I will return safely."
"When are you leaving? I will prepare your luggage."
"Luggage is simple, just pack a few pairs of shoes and clothes."
Gu Jiu stared, "What did you say?"
Gu Ling looked guilty. Although he didn't know where he was wrong, it didn't prevent him from confessing his mistake.
"Sister I was wrong, I was really wrong."
"Huh! Poor family and rich road, haven’t you heard of it? You just want to join the army with just a few clothes and socks, and you want to make contributions. Dream about it. When have you seen a poor and white little soldier who can be a general? Give it a knighthood?"
"Following Taizu to fight the world..."
"Shut up!" Gu Jiu's aura was fully open, so scared that Gu Yu didn't dare to speak.
He is really afraid of his sister! His sister told him to shut up, he must shut up honestly.
Gu Jiu said with a serious face: "You also said that it was the time to fight the world. Throughout the dynasties, and only when the world was fighting, there was a chance for an obscure little person to get ahead. Is it now to fight the world? Personal bravery don’t want to get ahead. Fight the world and run if you can’t win. Keep the world, can you run if you can’t win? Beware of the military judge cutting your head. Tell me, when will you leave Beijing? I will prepare your luggage. "
Gu Ling scratched his head, "I, I just want to ask my sister if I can get the money I invested. I will bring the money and it should solve most of the problems."
Gu Jiu smiled blankly, "Fart! Your money will continue to be invested in the business. When you get married, I will settle it for you. You want money and I will prepare it for you."
"How can I do it! I can't ask for my sister's money."
"Why can't you want it?"
"No. You are already married, and I can't ask for your talent."
Gu Jiu was out of anger.
She wants to cry to him.
I was very sad at first, and because I wanted to cry, I didn't need to brew my emotions, and my tears fell after a brush.
"Sister, don't cry!" Gu Ling was terrified. It was a heinous crime for him to cry his sister.
"You don't want me to prepare luggage, and you don't want my money, I am sad." Gu Jiu cried and complained.
Gu Ling was anxious and grumbled, "Sister, don't cry!"
"You leave me alone. I feel uncomfortable. You don't care for me anymore. Are you still the older brother?"
"I am! I keep dying your brother."
"Then why do you reject my silver?"
"I, I, I, a big man, how can I ask for your silver."
"In my eyes, only brother, no big man."
Gu Jiu couldn't help crying, she didn't believe that Gu Yu could hold on.
Of course Gu Ling couldn't stand it.
He is not afraid of the heavens, and even his father Gu dare to confront him. He is only afraid of Gu Jiu crying.
When Gu Jiu cried, he immediately persuaded him.
"Sister, don't cry. I promise you that you can do what you say. I have to wait for spring to leave. There is still more than half a month's time. You can call me whatever you want."
Gu Jiu wiped away the tears and choked up, "You mean it?"
"It's true."
Gu Jiu broke his tears and smiled, "Brother is really nice. Your luggage is all wrapped in my body, so you don’t have to worry about anything. And with your father, let Sixth Brother help you talk about it, don’t fight against your father when you get excited. No good."
"I have my own way from my father." Gu Ling looked like he had planned.
Gu Jiu didn't believe it at all.
why?
Because of Gu Ling's appearance, he wanted to cause trouble.
Seeing Gu Ling wouldn't listen, she didn't say much. She intends to inform Gu Teng in private, and Gu Teng can help Gu Teng when it is critical.
Gu Yu also cared about Gu Jiu, "Sister, how is Liu Zhao treating you?"
Gu Jiu pursed her lips and smiled, "He is naturally good to me, don't embarrass him too much."
Gu Ling laughed happily, especially proud.
"I just don't think he was chosen as his wife. It's damned. This time you go back to your natal house and you finally let me take the opportunity to clean him up."
Gu Jiu's eyebrows curled up, "Thank you, brother."
It feels really good for someone to care and someone to support you.
...
After the Lantern Festival, the banquet between relatives and friends came to an end.
Everyone's diet has also become lighter.
During the Chinese New Year, the wine and dishes will inevitably be a little greasy. It's good to cleanse the intestines.
The imperial physician came to the palace to ask for peace pulse.
When he reached Gu Jiu, he stretched out his hand to check his pulse, the imperial doctor looked surprised, and then said loudly: "Congratulations, Madam Hexi, Madam, this is a joy."
what?
Gu Jiu looked surprised and pretended to look alike.
"I'm pregnant?"
The imperial doctor smiled, "The diagnosis is correct, doesn't the madam feel it? Is the monthly affairs postponed?"
Gu Jiu nodded slowly, "It was indeed delayed for a few days."
"Pregnancy and menstrual affairs will stop, Madam's first child, no experience can understand."
While the imperial physician explained with Gu Jiu, the maid beside Gu Jiu was too unreliable. Even if the maid doesn’t know, doesn’t the mother understand?
Menstrual affairs have been postponed, and I didn't even know I was pregnant.
Gu Jiu asked, "How is the fetus?"
"Madam, rest assured, the fetal image is very stable. Madam does not need to deliberately raise, how to eat and drink on weekdays, as usual during pregnancy. There is no need to deliberately change your eating habits."
"Don't you need to take antifetal medicine?" Gu Jiu was like Xiaobai.
The imperial physician shook his head, "Madam is in good health, and the fetus is stable, so you don't need to take fetal medicine. As the saying goes, the medicine is three-point poison. If you can, don't take it.
Gu Jiu finally laughed, "Thank you, the doctor. This lady has a great reward."
A heavy reward finally brought back the several maids who were in surprise.
Qingmei said with a smile, "I am pleased with the imperial doctor."
The imperial doctor carried the medicine box and left happily.
All the maidservants, congratulate Gu Jiu together.
"Congratulations, Madam Hexi."
"Thank God, Madam is finally pregnant."
"Great news, you must report it to the princess and empress."
"You still have to notify the son."
"Does the madam want to give out money? It's a big joy after all."
Gu Jiu nodded, "Everyone has the reward money."
All the maidservants and women were smiling.
If you want to say who most hopes for the success of the royal palace, it is the people.
Because once there is a happy event, there will be rewards sent down.
Even the little maidservant who sleased has a share.
Gu Jiu was generous, not just taking a few copper plates and sending people away.
Those with a lot of rewards have one or two and two, and the least with two hundred.
For a while, the whole government was beaming, thinking about Gu Jiu's good.
In private, I’m saying,
Let the eldest lady be in charge. The eldest lady has the ability to make money and is generous in her actions.

"If you let the lady take care of the property in the mansion, the mansion might not worry about money."
"Who said no. Do you remember that the princess and empress divided a shop and two Zhuangzi to take care of the lady."
"Remember! This matter has been in trouble for a while, and the fourth lady is very unconvinced."
"What's the use of the fourth wife not being convinced, and she doesn't have the ability to make money. I don't know the situation on the Zhuangzi, but I heard that after the shop was in the hands of the lady, after some rectification, the business really got better."
"Really? Isn't it just an ordinary grain and oil shop, where can business be better?"
"You ask me, if I can answer it, I will be here with you as a errand? I have long been working with the eldest lady, and followed her to eat and drink."
Who doesn't want to eat and drink with the eldest lady, but he also has the ability.
Look at the people around Madam who are not capable.
The first thing is to be literate, but also to count, to be able to be independent, and to be able to complete the tasks on time regardless of the size.
Just knowing how to read, nine out of ten people were wiped out.
The reason why the eldest lady ran away from the young mansion was not because those little yellow gates went to the inner school and studied for a few days.
The first batch of people selected by the eldest lady, whether it was Deng Cunli, Huang Zhuo, or Bai Zhongrongxin, all became independent big shots. They wanted money, money, face-to-face, and people.
The scenery is infinite, envy others.
Especially the Xiaohuangmen, who was at the same starting line with Bai Zhong and the others, caused pain in the back molars with envy.
I only regretted that I missed the opportunity and didn't let Madam Zhao choose.
Not to mention Er Zhuang, originally an inconspicuous young man, now he is called Master Chen outside, and people who cheat him can line up from the street to the end.
The person who gave him a woman is even more like a crucian carp.
But Er Zhuang didn't dare to accept women casually, for fear of being trapped.
Because of this, there have been rumors that the second Zhuang has broken sleeves.
All in all, anyone who wants to have a relationship with Gu Jiu will first find Erzhuang for ventilation.
A little boy, who has gotten this far at a young age, what a face!
In the palace, I don’t know how many people admire Erzhuang’s luck.
Is the second strong ability strong?
There are more people in the palace than him.
But such a good opportunity fell on Er Zhuang.
If someone hesitated before, do you want to go to Gu Jiu to find an errand?
Now that they learned that Gu Jiu was pregnant, those people no longer hesitate. I have already planned what the time is right, how to make the eldest lady notice her talent.
Xiao Qin'er walked in the garden, and she sneered coldly when she heard people talking about how capable and generous Gu Jiu was.
"It took two years to get pregnant. I really don't know what to be proud of."
With her head held up, she came to Chunhetang.
The news of Gu Jiu's pregnancy has been told to Princess Pei the first time.
Pei was very happy, and specially ordered someone to go to the Yamen to call Liu Zhao back.
She and Xiao Qin'er nagged, "Your sister-in-law is finally pregnant, and this princess is also a worry."
Xiao Qin'er smiled and said, "I'll go to congratulate my sister in a while and congratulate her on getting what she wanted."
"You should go over and take a look."
Pei also sent someone to send a generous gift to Gu Jiu.
Ten brocade, ten satin, ten cotton, ten silk. There are also 50 catties of medicinal materials, 50 gold and silver bars each, plus a pair of jade bracelets, a pair of emerald earrings, and a set of ruby ​​head jewelry.
This gift is very valuable.
Although Pei had all kinds of problems, he was quite generous.
Looking at the presents in a room, Qingmei and the others are very knowledgeable and secretly stunned.
They thought, the madam was only pregnant, so the princess and empress gave so many gifts. When the wife gives birth to a son, don't gifts have to fill the whole room?
Madam Fang said to the side: "The princess and empress still care about his wife."
Gu Jiu laughed, "Mother, you take a trip to Chunhetang for me and send the screen over, saying it's a bit of filial piety for me as a daughter-in-law."
A double-sided embroidered screen was placed in the warehouse, with four fan panels, each taller. Both sides are pictures of ladies, but they are different.
And the embroidery thread used for double-sided embroidery is gold thread. All of a sudden, the value of embroidered screens was increased several times.
Coupled with the unparalleled embroidery workers in the world, a single double-sided embroidery screen is worth a thousand dollars.
The embroidered screen was sent back by Rongxin. It is said that the embroiderer who is famous all over the world embroidered the screen. It took half a year and was very precious.
As a New Year's gift, Rong Xin delivered the screen to Gu Jiu.
Gu Jiu likes screens, but they are too big to use in her house, they can only be stored in the warehouse.
Give it to Pei this time, just as she said, with a little filial piety.
Mother Fang took the people to bring the screen to Chunhetang.
Pei was overjoyed when he saw the screen.
Gu Jiu doesn't love screens, she does.
Pei's favorite is to place various screens in the room.
However, the previous screens were mostly flowers, birds, and cordyceps, and the double-sided embroidered screens with ladies' pictures looked unique.
"The eldest daughter-in-law is interested, tell her to take care of her baby, so she doesn't have to come here to please her."
"Thank you Niang Niang for your understanding."
"She has anything she wants to eat or drink, even if she tells the kitchen to do it. She is the eldest daughter-in-law, and I hope this child can add a brother to the palace."
"Madam must be a brother with this child."
Mother Fang was particularly sure.
Only by giving birth to a brother can the wife consolidate her position.
In the afternoon, gifts from the palace were also delivered.
Concubine Xiao Shu was relieved to learn that Gu Jiu was pregnant, and Liu Zhao finally had something to do. The first time he ordered someone to give Gu Jiu a gift.
The gift from Concubine Xiao Shu is naturally extraordinary. Many of them are imperial and belong to the royal family.
Even Concubine Xue Gui, Concubine Jiang Shuyi, and even Concubine Li De, sent someone to give a gift that was not serious or not.
More horrifying is yet to come.
Chen Dachang came to the palace in person and gave gifts to Gu Jiu.
Knowing that Chen Dachang had arrived, Gu Jiu was in a bad shape.
She is just the grandson's wife, not Huang Zi's wife.
The emperor's grandson's wife is pregnant. Is the emperor going to fight?
Under the emperor's knees, there are dozens of grandchildren, not thirty or twenty who are married.
Before that, so many emperor grandson wives were pregnant and gave birth to children, and the emperor didn't know anything about it.
Why is there a special case when I get to her.
Even if you want to give gifts, you just need to send a maid over here. Why do you send Chen Dachang this great Buddha?
Damn it!
Gu Jiu could get it, but this time, she became a thorn in the eyes of many people.
I don't know how many people secretly pricked the villain to curse her.
If the curse were useful, she would have died eight hundred times.
Gu Jiu came to Shouchuntang, the main hall of the palace, and received the gift from the emperor.
She peeked at the gift list in front of Chen Dachang, and then she was very disgusted.
Dignified emperor, do you want to be so stingy?
A few pieces of ruyi, a few pieces of jade sent her away.
It is better not to send anything, anyway, leave a thought.
Chen Dachang noticed Gu Jiu's disgust at that moment and laughed.
Sure enough, no emperor said it.
Gu Jiu is a good money owner. He seems to be afraid of imperial power, but in fact, he doesn't have much fear of imperial power.
Just by bargaining with the emperor several times, she can see that as long as she does not endanger her life, she is bolder than anyone else.
"Is the madam not satisfied?" Chen Dachang asked with a smile.
Gu Jiu looked terrified, "My father-in-law said and laughed, and his majesty gave a generous gift, sincerely fearful, there is no reason for dissatisfaction."
"Oh! Madam is satisfied. Your majesty commanded that Madam should go to the palace to please her when she is free."
Gu Jiu was a little dazed, "I've been feeling unwell, and I don't know when I can leave for the palace to ask for peace."
"It's okay, Madam can go anytime. Your Majesty welcomes you."
Gu Jiu blinked, whether there was any ambiguity.
She chuckled, "My father-in-law can really laugh."
"We don't dare to make fun of this kind of thing. Your Majesty really welcomes his wife into the palace. Today, your Majesty also asked, when is the project wife outside the Nancheng Gate planning to start?"
Gu Jiu was wary in his heart, and said vaguely: "I have not prepared everything item by item. I can't tell when the work can start."
Chen Dachang had seen your expression long ago, and said with a smile: "When Madam is ready to start work, send someone to say. Your Majesty is very optimistic about you, maybe he will help you."
Gu Jiu's nose was crooked.
Who is so rare of the emperor's help! Obviously stealing money.
Others may not care about the emperor's attention, but Gu Jiu is not rare at all, but instead thinks it is troublesome.
The emperor was so irritable, and he used his money to collaborate on projects, and Gu Jiu was not in a painful idle.
If possible, she just wanted to say a word to the emperor: how far to roll.
Unfortunately, this dream is destined to be shattered.
Gu Jiu was really depressed when he sent Chen Dachang away.
Jade Ruyi given by the emperor, Yu Jue casually threw it to Qingmei, "Take it away, my lady is not rare."
Qingmei was speechless, "Madam, this is a reward from your majesty, how can you be lighthearted."
Gu Jiu didn't hear a word.
She is a little irritable.
Even Pei sent someone to ask about the specific situation, but she didn't bother to pay attention.
It was Mother Fang who was socializing for her, but fortunately she didn't offend anyone.
"Why is the lady so temperamental? The emperor's reward is decency, not money value."
Gu Jiu rolled his eyes, "This madam is not uncommon for such decentness."
Just put her directly on the fire and grill it, which is not decent, it is obviously too late.
She could imagine that this would not know how many people were cursing her.
When Liu Zhao came back, Gu Jiu said bluntly, "Your royal grandfather is very stingy, and it is a rare reward for me to break the jade jue. I dislike it and throw it away in the warehouse."
Liu Zhao gave a hum, and said every word: "Good loss!"
Gu Jiu was surprised, "I thought you would be dissatisfied, saying you shouldn't be so disrespectful to the Imperial Gift."
Liu Zhao smiled and said, "The emperor's grandfather is stingy, and it's not the first day. Since you don't like it, why should I force you to be respectful."
Gu Jiu laughed, "This is disrespectful."
"So what? Who calls him so stingy."
Gu Jiu opened his eyebrows and smiled, and Liu Zhao's words successfully pleased her.
She bent down and lowered her head, and tapped Liu Zhao's cheek.
Liu Zhao's expression was dull and unclear. If she hadn't been pregnant, he really wanted to eat people.
...
Xingqing Palace.
When the emperor learned that Gu Jiu disliked the gift he gave was too cheap, he hummed, "Smelly girl, who is not grateful for the gift I gave. That is to say, she dares to dislike it. Is it easy for me to have some money?"
"Your Majesty is not easy." Chen Dachang said nonsense seriously.
The emperor told him, "When Gu Jiu finds a loan from Shaofu, remember to invest money in her. I also want to earn some pocket money to spend."
Chen Dachang laughed, "Your Majesty is wise."
