Chapter 528: Refresh lower limit

On the outskirts of the capital, Gu’s farm, today ushered in the steward Gu Quan.
The head of Tianzhuang respectfully welcomed Gu Quan into the gate.
Gu Quan was busy with errands and had no time to deal with the flattery of the Zhuang boss.
He asked, "Where is the grandmother Sangu?"
"People are in the backyard." Chuang Tou said honestly.
Gu comprehensive and serious, "lead the way."
Chuang Tou didn't dare to neglect, and bowed to lead the way.
Gu Yue, the grandmother of the third aunt of the Gu family, was detained in the farm for nearly two years.
She is thinner and looks older.
I wear styles that were popular in Beijing two years ago, and hairstyles were also popular two years ago.
Gu Yue's time seems to have stopped two years ago.
Two years of living in the country estate has eroded her sharpness.
She became silent, always like to look at people with a pair of gloomy eyes.
In midsummer, the room is hot and there is no ice basin.
She sat under the eaves, let the maid hold a fan and fan, while she was doing needlework by herself.
Gu Quan was a little surprised when he saw this scene.
In memory, Gu Yue rarely does needlework.
She is impatient and can't sit still.
Needlework is not suitable for her. Xie never forced her.
Unexpectedly, after living in Zhuangzi for two years, he developed patience.
"Hello, Grandma Sangu!" Gu Quan bowed.
Gu Yue glanced at him lightly, "Gu housekeeper rare guest, sit down."
She had no anger, no surprise, and she didn't even ask why Gu Quan came here suddenly.
It's like a neighbor in the neighborhood passing by, greeted casually, please sit down.
Gu Quan was not polite, and sat down on the bamboo chair.
The sweet-scented osmanthus tree in the yard swayed with the wind, bringing the slightest coolness.
"Doesn't Grandma Sangu ask why the youngest came?"
Gu Yue calmly said, "I can't get rid of my father's orders. My father will send you this time. Could it be that he wants to give me a cup of poisoned wine and kill me?"
Her tone was clear and indifferent, but what she said was as unpleasant as ever.
Gu Quan thought to himself that everything before that was indeed an illusion, and Gu Yue was still the same Gu Yue. You can choke to death with one mouth.
"Grandma Sangu misunderstood."
Gu Yue smiled. This is also the first time she laughed today.
"Say it, I'll listen."
Gu Quan pondered his words, "The little one comes back this time to pick up Grandma Sangu's home."
Gu Yue was surprised and didn't do any needlework either.
Her expression was visibly stunned at first, then she laughed again, with a very shallow smile and a hint of sarcasm.
She said: "Master will not pick me up for no reason. Come on, what's the cause? It can't be the wife's accident."
"Grandma Sangu, don't worry, everything is fine for my wife."
Gu Yue stared at him, waiting for his next words.
Gu Quan was a little embarrassed. It seemed that Gu Yue would not leave with him if he didn't tell the truth.
He gritted his teeth and said, "The master is looking for a marriage for Sangu's grandma. This time the youngest picks up Sangu's grandma to see each other."
Gu Yue sneered when he heard the words, "Master hasn't done filial piety yet, so anxious to marry me, he really can't tolerate me."
"Grandma Sangu misunderstood, the master is all about you. Grandma Sangu must have some support for the rest of her life."
Gu Yue raised her eyebrows and smiled, "I have brothers. When I grow old, I will rely on my brothers to provide for the elderly. Isn't it OK?"
"It's not so good anyway."
"There is nothing wrong with you. Go back and tell the master that I'm fine here and don't need to worry about it. If the marriage has never happened, just refuse it."
Gu Yue buried her head and continued to do needlework.
The maid Putao was playing a fan, always maintaining a fixed frequency, without giving Gu Quan a straight look.
Gu Quan was a little anxious, "Sangu's grandma won't ask who the man is, are there any conditions?"
Gu Yue sneered, "I am married for the third time, so what good marriages can I have. I am only a middle-aged widower. I married and became a stepmother. My aunt is not that interested."
Gu Quan frowned, "This is the master's arrangement. Grandma Sangu should pack up her luggage quickly and go back with her."
Gu Yue put down the needlework in her hands, "Gu Quan, grandma asks you, what identity was I before?"
Gu Quan was stunned.
Gu Yue didn't wait for him to answer, and said directly: "I used to be a concubine in the Imperial Palace of Chu. Although I was a concubine, I also went to the Royal Jade Butterfly. I was a distinguished person. I also gave birth to a child for the Chu King.
I have enjoyed good food and clothing, and I still have a rich dowry. Now I am asked to marry a middle-aged widower and be a stepmother. Is he worthy?
What a big face the other party dared to marry Liangdi from the former Chu Wangfu. I'm really not afraid of grandma, I stabbed him to death. You know, I did it.
Tell the master what I said. If the lord doesn't want to make enemies with others, don't worry about my marriage, don't find someone to send me out. "
Gu Quan's face paled upon hearing this.
Gu Yue snorted coldly, lowered her head and continued to do her needlework
This is not the first time she has done this.
The man seems strong.
But as long as you plan well, killing a man is a breeze.
Asking her to marry someone as a stepmother, Master Gu made a good idea, but she was unwilling to obey it.
It is said that the first marriage is from the father, and the second marriage is from the self.
She was unwilling to marry, and Master Gu had nothing to do with her.
Gu Quan asked, "Grandma Sangu is not curious at all? I really want to stay in Zhuangzi for the rest of my life and lead a life of misery."
Gu Yue smiled, "Last year I asked Brother Liu to take my dowry and bought a small farm and two shops for me. It is said that the shop's business is okay, and this year should be able to make about 1,000 yuan. I live. In the farm, there are few places to spend money, and you can save some money in a year, enough for the elderly. Gu Guanjia don’t worry about me, I can’t die."
Gu Quan was speechless, no longer knowing how to answer the call.
"Grandma Sangu will consider it again."
Gu Yue shook his head, "Nothing to consider. Grandma, I am not interested in being a stepmother."
"The farm has a hard life."
"Get used to it. Gu butler, do you think my needlework is doing well?"
Gu Quan was stunned, then hesitated: "It's okay."
Gu Yue smiled at him, "Steward Gu has never seen my needlework before. If you have seen it, you wouldn't say it's okay."
Gu Quan smiled awkwardly.
Gu Yue waved his hand, "Go, I won't keep you. Grape, send me steward Gu."
The maid Putao put away the fan and bowed slightly, "Gu housekeeper, please!"
Gu Quan had no choice but to get up and leave.
He was still a little unwilling. He walked to the gate of the farm and looked back at Maid Grape, "What does your aunt and grandma think? Is she really going to live in the farm for a lifetime?"
"What my aunt and grandmother said before are all her true thoughts. Although life is hard now, there are fewer disputes. There is nothing wrong with living peacefully."
"She is so young, can she stand it?"
Maid Grape lowered her head and smiled, "Very good, I can bear it."
Gu Quan didn't believe it.
It is said that the country is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change. How can a person like Gu Yue be able to endure the hard life of the farm.
If Gu Yue hadn't spoken with a knife as always, Gu Quan would even wonder if Gu Yue had been stunned by the devil and changed his core.
Gu Quan shook his head, and could only go back home first, and ask Master Gu for instructions.
The maid Putao watched the steward Gu Quan leave, and then returned to the backyard as a servant.
Gu Yue has put away the needlework and drank the watermelon that had been well watered.
She asked Grape, "Did you give it away?"
Grape nodded, "Go away."
Without Gu Yue's order, she picked up a slice of watermelon and ate it herself.
Gu Yue looked faint and didn't say anything about her.
"I was still in the filial piety period, so I was anxious to marry me. Could it be that I am out of money and want to take the opportunity to receive a dowry."
Grape finished eating a piece of watermelon, took out a handkerchief and wiped his fingers, "Auntie really doesn't marry?"
"Why do you marry? I have to marry only because my mind is in the water. Isn't it okay now? Are you unsatisfied?" Gu Yue stared at the grape with bad eyes.
Grape shook his head, "It's a pity that the slave and maidservant is for the aunt and grandma."
Gu Yue snorted, "Stop talking nonsense. Clean up, and we will go out in the afternoon."
Two years later, under the offensive of money, all the people in the farm were bought by Gu Yue.
The wives who guarded Gu Yue became Gu Yue's pawns.
Now she can go in and out of the farm at will, and occasionally visit the capital.
She has a dowry and has an income every year.
Even more fortunately, when she was still in the palace, she also invested in Gu Jiu's Nanchengmenwai project and invested several thousand taels.
This investment has brought her a generous return. The dividends at the end of each year can make her live very comfortably.
Money is the courage of people.
Rich Gu Yue, relying on the surname Gu, had a good life in her small life.
In the afternoon, she rode in a donkey cart and hurried to another farm ten miles away.
This small farm was bought with her dowry.
Zhuangzi is very small, with only three hectares of land, half of which is land, and less than 100 acres of land irrigated with water.
In the depths of the farm, there is a small house with two entrances, surrounded by high walls.
It looks inconspicuous on the outside, but the inner courtyard houses are very comfortable.
All kinds of luxury items can be found in the bedroom.
The next person learned that she was coming and set up the ice basin in advance.
All the subordinates in this village were bought by her and belonged to her.
A trip to the couch, feeling the coolness of the ice cubes, this is the day she should live.
"Madam, Master Xie is here."
In this house, Gu Yue asked everyone to call her his wife.
The son of Xie in the maid's mouth is Xie Shi.
Xie Shixiumu, stop by Gu Yue to sit here.
Along with him, there was a family son who came to Beijing from other places.
Men and women are not innocent people who have never experienced it. They all know what to do.
The prince from aristocratic families who came to Beijing from other places cares about Gu Yue's identity as the Liangdi of the former Chu Wangfu. In the eyes of some people, this identity is just a concubine, worthless.
But in the eyes of some people, this identity represents a secret pleasure.
It was like cuckolding the king of Chu secretly. Just thinking about it, the soul was shaking with excitement.
As for what Gu Yue cares about?
Ha ha!
The prince of the family gave Gu Yue a gift, a pair of transparent jade bracelets, a pair of jade earrings, a gem hairpin, and a pair of rockers, which was very valuable.
Gu Yue looked at the gift and liked it, so she left the son for tea.
What happened after that happened.
And Xie Shi led the maid to the wing to stay warm.
When everything was over, the patriarch who came to Beijing from other places was driven away by Gu Yue.
She never keeps anyone overnight.
Xie Shi came to the bedroom, talked to Gu Yue, and massaged Gu Yue's sore waist.
Maid Grape waited on her side quietly, with a contented look on her face.
Gu Yue laughed and said, "Since it has been moisturized, the grapes have become more and more watery."
Maid Grape smiled secretly.
Xie Shi stared at Gu Yue and joked, "Are you jealous?"
Gu Yue snorted coldly, "Why am I jealous? You are you and I am me, so make a clear distinction."
Xie Shi laughed, seemingly satisfied with Gu Yue's attitude, "This time I can take a five-day break. When I leave, I will see you again."
"Don't come. My family may send someone over in the next few days so that no one can see you."
"About your marriage?" Xie Shi asked.
Gu Yue said.
Xie Shi asked cautiously: "Are you married?"
Gu Yue looked at him with a faint smile, "Do you want me to marry?"
Xie Shi said sincerely, "I respect your ideas."
fart!
Gu Yue could see through Xie Shi at a glance.
Xie Shi can also get a lot of money for introducing people to her, or personal connections. Naturally, she does not want her to marry.
The Xie’s family is no better than it was back then, with limited income.
Xie Shi never disliked being able to make money by this method, and he became more and more motivated.
It's just that Gu Yue is picky, not only has to look good, have good physical strength, but also have a good family background, and the gifts he prepares are satisfactory. Otherwise, it would be useless if I came.
Xie Shi didn't dare to disobey her, so she could only try to find a goal for her.
Three to five months, one or two can always be found.
Occasionally, old acquaintances visit twice or three times.
The two of them did this secretly, and they were afraid that people would know it.
But Gu Yue has a hole card.
She is a widow, not a festival woman, and she does not need to keep the festival for any man.
I was really found out, and it's a big deal to find an excuse to perfuse it.
You love what I want, afraid of a fart.
But it's better not to let anyone know. Because Master Gu wants a face.
Gu Yue raised his chin with her toe, "Don't worry, grandma, I won't marry. Unless you are willing to marry me."
Xie Shi laughed, he knew it was a joke.
Gu Yue snorted coldly and kicked Xie Shi in the chest, "Get out, don't enter my bedroom, it's dirty."
Xie Shi got used to her uncertainty, and said with a smile: "Then I will go back first. If you have any needs, ask someone to tell me, and I will find it for you."
Gu Yue sneered, "Don't forget, you owe me."
Xie Shi bowed his hands and left quickly.
He did owe Gu Yue.
Because of him, Gu Yue has a scar on her body. Because of him, Gu Yue was driven out of the palace.
Therefore, Xie Shi always has a guilty conscience in front of Gu Yue.
Grape sent him out.
Xie Shi chatted with Grape, "Your aunt and grandma's temper is getting bigger and bigger."
"Don't pay attention to her, she just lacks men's moisture."
Xie Shi squeezed Grape's cheek, "If you say this to her, you are not afraid that she will clean you up."
"I'm not afraid. I know everything about her. She doesn't believe in others, only I can serve her. When will you come next time?"
"I will come again in three days. Can you come out without telling her?"
The maid Grape bit her lip, "I'm afraid it will be difficult. She can't be separated from her, even if I go to the toilet, she has to urge again and again."
Xie Shi looked disappointed, "What should I do? I think you are tight."
After speaking, he started to get started, holding Grape's body.
In summer, clothes are thin.
After a few strokes, the grape softened.
She took his hand, "Or don't leave tonight, just stay here for the night."
Xie Shi was a little nervous, "I'm afraid she will get angry."
"Don't be afraid, I can coax her."
Xie Shi moved. So the two got into the wing again.
The maid Grape didn't come back, and Gu Yue thought with her toes, she knew what she was doing.
"A mean hoof cannot be separated from a man's dog stuff."
After cursing and venting the depression in her heart, Gu Yue asked her to wash her body with hot water.
After Gu Yue drank two cups of tea, the maid Grape was late.
Seeing the appearance of the grapes being moisturized and making them two years younger, Gu Yue snorted coldly, "Wavy hooves, I can't walk when I see a man."
Grape smiled, "It was all taught by my aunt."
"Fart! When did I teach you this."
Grape smiled and said nothing. She changed her tea, served a snack, and asked the kitchen to prepare dinner.
"Where is the person? Are you leaving this time?" Gu Yue asked casually.
Grape shook his head: "No, he was tired, so the servants told him to rest in the wing."
Gu Yue sneered, "Dare to love this house, now you are the lower servant. I, the master, depends on your face."
Grape smiled, "That prince in the afternoon, didn't you take care of your good aunt?"
"Get out!" Gu Yue lost his temper. "You are eager to thank you, and he can't accept you as a concubine and give you a name. Think about it clearly, don't be fooled by him in the end. ."
Grape sinked, "What did Grandma Aunt say? In this life, life is yours, and death is your ghost. You don't want to send the slaves. The slaves will not marry Master Xie when they die."
Just bet to swear loyalty.
When Gu Yue saw this, she was barely satisfied.
"Remember what you said. If you lie to me, I will not forgive you."
"Got it. You are just too eager."
