Chapter 13:

Naturally, Xiao Heng knew soon about Xiao Xu's stopping Gu Suier.
Xiao Heng didn't say anything at the time, but invited Xiao Xu to Tingzhuyuan.
Xiao Xu himself didn't know what was going on, so he asked wonderingly, "Brother, is there anything wrong?"
Xiao Heng glanced at her faintly, without speaking.
Xiao Xu shuddered.
She has always been a little afraid of this third brother, and now she is called inexplicably, she really doesn't understand.
Is it because of his concubine that day? Not so...
Xiao Heng asked Xiao Xu to stand outside the curtain.
And right inside, the doctor is asking for Gu Suier's pulse.
This doctor is a master of gynecology in the palace, and he will come to Ruiding Hou Mansion every five or six days to ask for Gu Suier's pulse and regulate his body.
The room was silent, and the people around stood respectfully, except for the rustle of bamboo leaves.
Xiao Xu stood there, slowly feeling something was wrong.
She became uneasy.
Xiao Heng's position in Ruiding Hou's Mansion is beyond her comparison.
What's more, Xiao Heng was loved and appreciated by the emperor.
The emperor personally established the Dragoon Guard, and the Dragoon Guard would not listen to any orders except the emperor.
Xiao Heng is the president of Longqiwei.
At this time, Madam An came out of the room and glanced at her with a smile: "This is Doctor Hua in the palace. It is the emperor's order personally to ask Doctor Hua to come over and ask the young lady for pulse. The Emperor. Appreciating the third master is also a grace to the little lady!"
Love the house and Wu, the emperor’s reward for the little lady is piled up in the house.
Xiao Xu felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this.
She usually doesn't see Mother An in her eyes. It's not just a slave. But now, she knows that there is Gu Suier behind Mother An and the third brother behind Gu Suier.
The third brother is so kind to his concubine...
Yao Guang next to him asked in a low voice, "Mother An, is the little lady okay? The third young master was asking just now, saying that he was a little frightened recently, don't move your fetus."
Of course this was not something Xiao Heng would ask, but he deliberately said it in front of Xiao Xu.
Sure enough, when Xiao Xu heard this, his heart suddenly rose.
She is also afraid that something will happen to Gu Suier, so don't let the third brother trouble herself.
Mother An glanced at Xiao Xu and deliberately sighed: "Who knows, this time I was really angry. I've seen Dr. Hua have a pulse check for a long time, but nothing is wrong."
Xiao Xu suddenly felt excited.
She began to feel anxious, afraid, remembering the deserted face of the third brother, and then remembering what her aunt told her before.
The aunt said that it doesn't matter what the family offends, but don't offend the third master.
She didn't understand at the time and wanted to ask, but her aunt didn't say how, she just told her not to spread it.
She usually didn't care about it, but now she is beginning to be afraid, standing there regretting it, thinking that she wants to choose a soft and prestigious one, why did she pick this one!
Blame the third brother for being so kind to this concubine.
After suffering like this for a full half an hour, finally, Doctor Hua's pulse diagnosis finally came out.
She looked at the doctor, and then at the maids who came in and out. She wanted to stop the individual to ask, but no one answered her.
If it were normal, she would have thought that someone looked down on her concubine, but now she was pulling her heart and thinking about being afraid.
Don't have anything wrong, will the third brother be angry? Wouldn't the third brother sue to the emperor in one breath? Will the old lady scold herself? Will you punish yourself?
After much deliberation, Xiao Heng finally ordered someone to call her and let her go to the study.
She was dumbfounded, and she walked to the study with heavy legs and feet, feeling that she was getting closer to death with every step.
After entering, Xiao Heng didn't even lift his head or look at her.
She cried out cautiously: "Brother San."
Xiao Heng still didn't look up, and continued to read.
Xiao Xuxin mentioned her throat and said aggrieved: "Brother, I was wrong."
Xiao Heng remained silent, turning the pages of the book with his slender fingers.
Xiao Xu cried all of a sudden, covering his face and crying: "Third brother, I bullied my sister-in-law. I didn't mean it. I just thought that the lady gave her eggs instead of me."
Xiao Heng put the book aside, picked up the pen, and polished it.
Xiao Xu burst into tears and was full of guilt and anxiety: "Brother, if something happens to my sister-in-law, I will pay for it! I was wrong, and I will never dare anymore!"
At this time, Xiao Heng raised his head and glanced at her lightly.
Xiao Xu was looked at by him so that he only felt as if a cool breeze was blowing through him.
She suddenly understood what auntie said, why can't provoke anyone, just can't provoke Xiao Heng.
She stammered: "Three, third brother...I was wrong."
Xiao Heng put down the pen and ink in his hand, and said quietly, "You didn't do anything wrong, but her physical foundation is not good. Since she became pregnant, some things have happened. The fetal phase is unstable, so she should be healthy and healthy. , It is not suitable to start a quarrel with others."
Xiao Xu cried and said, "Third brother, I know, I'm all to blame for making my sister-in-law angry. If anything happens, I will die of guilt! I won't dare anymore!"
Xiao Heng's words are still light: "You and I are brothers and sisters, should we take care of each other, or should harmony be more important, what does my sister think?"
Xiao Xu's little chicken pecks rice: "Yes, yes, the third brother is right! Peace should be the most important thing, and I will get along well with my sister-in-law in the future! I will never let my sister-in-law be angry anymore! I'll give it to you later. My sister-in-law apologizes!"
Xiao Heng: "It's okay, you go out first, and remember to ask Mother An to pick you up some black eggs. You are going to take the women's school exam recently to help you up."
Xiao Xu: "Hmm, thank you third brother! Thank you third brother!"
Running out of Xiao Heng's study, Xiao Xu seemed to have escaped.
She didn't know why. In fact, Xiao Heng didn't say anything ruthless at all, and didn't even say a word to her, but she was scared for no reason.
Xiao Heng, who always felt silent, had a breathless sense of majesty.
She looked at the room on Gu Suier's side, and wondered in her heart that she still had to make a good relationship with this Gu Suier first, and let her be honest.
Gu Suier didn't know what happened outside her room. She only knew that Xiao Xu suddenly came to ask for an apology. It was completely different from the arrogant appearance before, as if she had changed.
Since she apologized, she naturally wouldn't mention anything. After talking to each other for a while, she let Mother An take some ebony eggs and other supplements to Xiao Xu.
Xiao Xu was overjoyed and grateful, and each sister-in-law screamed so affectionately, holding hands and talking non-stop, and even said that he would give her something good.
After sending Xiao Xu away, Gu Suier also sighed that she could understand some people and things in this mansion, while some could not.
She knows that the people here have their own careful thoughts. There are good minds and bad minds. She can’t tell the difference. All she thinks about is to be a person, to be kind, and to take care of herself. The tadpoles were born safely and raised to adults.
As for other things, she also ignored it.
If people treat her well, she will treat them well.
She doesn't care who is right and who is wrong.
"I see, whether it is the eldest girl or the second girl, they are all kind to our little madam. They all see that our third young master loves our little lady. Look at the big girl, for the sake of going to Guiyuan... …She was afraid that the three young masters would repent, so she wished to confess the young lady!"
"Guiyuan, what exactly is that place?"
"Osuiyuan, I don't know. It seems to be a place to see sweet-scented osmanthus, where there are people with identities, and a place for people with identities to entertain. Many noble ladies will also go."
Madam An slowly told Gu Suier about Osmanthus Garden, so Gu Suier knew that there were a lot of fun there, and there were also large osmanthus trees. The ladies and ladies in Yanjing City liked to go.
As for why Xiao Jin wanted to go to Guiyuan so much, Mother An secretly guessed that there was someone who would go to Xiao Jin, and she wanted to meet her.
The right person?
Gu Suier thought of Xiao Jin's flamboyant and unrestrained appearance, and she couldn't help but guess what kind of man would make such a charming lady like the moon in the sky think about it. That must be a remarkable character.
What's more, isn't Xiao Jin already married? How can someone who has made a kiss still have a favorite?
But these naturally have nothing to do with Gu Suier.
She lowered her head and touched her belly lightly, knowing in her heart that her life is a child in her belly. In this strange Yanjing city, this is her only support.
A lady like Xiao Jin would take a high look at herself and scold Xiao Xu for herself, but it was actually because of the tadpole in her stomach.
Xiao Heng made a cold face for his concubine, also because of the tadpoles in his stomach.
Gradually, she understood what a mother is expensive with her son, and there is no tadpole in her belly. She is nothing in this Hou Mansion, not to mention Xiao Xu, even Bao Duck Golden Mallard is inferior.
Thinking about this, she picked up the basket next to it and picked the silk thread inside to embroider the handkerchief. She has already figured out what to give to each family, and even the pattern has been drawn, but she didn’t want to give it to Xiao Jin before. Now she has to take a closer look at embroidering a beautiful veil. It should not be too vulgar or too glamorous. It's common, so let people see it and really like it.
In addition to Xiao Jin, she also plans to embroider one for Xiao Xu.
That Xiao Xu can't be affectionate to her now, she has to maintain her face every bite.
No matter how they are, they are also the daughter of the Hou Mansion. In the future, he will give birth to tadpoles to call her aunt. The tadpole wants to live in the Hou Mansion for a long time, so he can't make enemies out of thin air.
Although she is from the country, she also knows the truth about being kind to others.
When someone gives her a smile, she is willing to respond with sincerity.
Wanting to understand this, she took pains to prepare for embroidering the veil, but looking at her painting, it seemed that she still felt that the pattern she drew was not good enough.
Mother An happened to see it, and she reminded: "There are quite a few calligraphy and paintings in Sanye's study. Why don't the little madam ask for something to come over and embroider it, so I can make sure that the girl likes it."
When Gu Suier heard it, her eyes brightened, and she felt that this was a good idea. The calligraphy and painting in the study of other scholars must be more elegant than what she had figured out, and they could be in Xiao Jin's eyes.
But thinking about it again, she was depressed.
"San Ye may not care about this."
When she thought of Xiao Heng, she remembered his cold appearance, ignoring everything he encountered.
What kind of situation would she be like if she really had to risk losing and asking him to paint?
She must have gone in, he looked at the book without raising his eyelids.
She said cautiously, San Ye, please lend me the calligraphy and painting.
He glanced at her coldly.
She was shocked.
He said lightly, no.
She lowered her head and dared not speak, and quickly retreated and ran out.
"Little madam, just ignore it, you have to try it, how do you know if you don't try? Besides, you are pregnant with San Ye's child now, and he will definitely consider you a little bit considerate, maybe he promised you ."
After Mother An had spoken hard, she saw that Gu Suier was still hopeless, and she urged: "Little madam, you have to go to San Ye to get together so that San Ye will have a good impression of you. In the future, I will have a partial pain on the child in my stomach. Otherwise, if I don’t touch each other every day, the biological child will also have a child! Then the third master will marry the main house and give birth to a direct child. Isn’t it even more hopeless?"
The so-called "snake and seven inches", Gu Suier's most fear is that her little tadpole will be left out in the cold. She is willing to do anything for the little tadpole. So when Mother An said this, she suddenly changed. idea.
"What the mother said is, then I'd better go to the third master to speak, begging."
"Yes, that's right. Jujube tea was delivered in the kitchen. I didn't let Bao Ya know about it. The province is cheaper. The two little fairies of Bao Ya and Jin Fu, I had to let the little lady take it. In the past, now you take the opportunity to give it to San Ye to eat, so you can ask about calligraphy and painting by the way!
"it is good!"
That's it.
So Gu Suier, accompanied by Mother An, went outside the study, holding a wooden tray with jujube tea in it.
For some reason, no one was being served outside the study today. Jiang Zheng and Hu Tie were gone, only a yellow-haired dog licking its paw in front of the steps.
She held the wooden pallet nervously and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened and Xiao Heng appeared.
After Xiao Heng appeared, he glanced at Gu Suier, and his expression was not very good: "What are you doing?"
Gu Suier was slightly startled and perturbed: "San Ye, I will serve you with jujube tea."
Xiao Heng twisted his eyebrows slightly: "Let Bao Ya and the others bring this kind of thing."
Gu Suier was lost and said in a low voice, "I happened to see it, so I told San Ye to bring it over."
Xiao Heng swiftly took the tray from Gu Suier, then put his big hand on her back and entered the room.
Gu Suier hurried over to help him pour the tea.
Xiao Heng took the jujube tea from her and drank it and said, "Is there anything else?"
Gu Suier secretly looked over and saw that he didn't even raise his eyelids when he spoke.
She lowered her head, and thought to herself that she had guessed the same as herself.
But she still bit her head and said cautiously: "San Ye, can you lend me some calligraphy and painting? I want to embroider some veils for the eldest and second girls as a pattern."
After hearing this, Xiao Heng paused slightly and glanced at her.
She was suddenly excited.
Sure enough, he guessed exactly the same action.
Is he going to refuse next?
But Xiao Heng retracted his eyes, his gaze fell on the jujube tea, he looked at the floating red dates, and asked quietly, "Why give this?"
Gu Suier: "They are all good people, and I don't have much. It is my heart to think of making a veil and giving it to others."
Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows: "What you need, you can go to the west penthouse to pick it."
There are a lot of things in there, some from the outside, and some from the emperor's rewards, and some are not handed over to the eldest lady to put them into the house's warehouse, so they are piled there at will, giving people a favor.
As for embroidery, Xiao Heng naturally thought it was unnecessary, so why bother.
Gu Suier misunderstood, and did not understand Xiao Heng's painstaking effort: "There are calligraphy and painting there, right?"
Xiao Heng's eyes were quite unhappy: "I don't know."
Gu Suier felt his cold tone and her shoulders shrank, but still boldly said, "Then, I went to see it?"
Xiao Heng: "..."
Gu Suier felt wronged and looked at him carefully: "Then... Then I don't want it?"
Don't let it go, see how fierce he is.
Xiao Heng: "..."
Gu Suier was flustered when he saw his face darkened: "Then I retire first?"
Having said that, he turned around and started to run.
Although the process is different, the result is the same as she expected!
But who knows, Xiao Heng stepped forward and took her arm.
"Huh?" She was confused.
"Go, I'll take you." Xiao Heng gave in with a black face.
Originally, Gu Suier thought it was just a small ear room, and there were just a few calligraphy and paintings in it, but when she walked in, she realized that she was wrong.
Inside there are vases and various ornaments, as well as the kind of paperweight used to press paper, and of course there is no shortage of calligraphy and painting, rolled up and stacked on the side.
It seems that these things have been stacked here for a while, and the scrolls are still covered with dust.
Xiao Heng took a pair of vases at random, but they were jade-white in color with a slender bottleneck, and he whispered; "Take this and put it by your window."
Gu Suier naturally didn't dare to refuse, and whispered: "Yes."
Xiao Heng flipped through it again at random, found two scrolls, and opened them. One of them was Aoxue Red Plum and the other was Orchid.
"You can compare these two."
"Okay...Thank you Sanye!"
Gu Suier pursed her lips and chuckled slightly.
Xiao Heng watched her clear eyes flashing with fine light, and after a moment of silence, he whispered, "It doesn't matter, you embroider at will. If it's too much trouble, just give them these two paintings."
Gu Suier responded in a low voice, "Well, I see, San Ye."
However, I was thinking that after all, the calligraphy and painting belonged to Xiao Heng, not his own.
She still felt that it was most suitable for Xiao Heng to embroider two veils by herself.
While talking, Xiao Heng saw another painting next to him, but it was a few brushes of bamboo, and he gave it to Gu Suier at will: "This is bamboo, and I will give it to you."
He was thinking that this bamboo embroidery came from less effort than the plum blossom orchid.
Gu Suier was overjoyed with joy: "Thank you Sanye!"
Xiao Heng narrowed his eyes, watching her smile with a soothing expression, and said in a low voice, "It's not a matter of importance. You can wait for you to embroider after giving birth. They don't have to lack your veil."
Gu Suier couldn't listen at all, but she still nodded: "San Ye I know!"
Out of the ear room, Gu Suier went back to her room with the three scrolls.
Standing by the door, Xiao Heng saw her walking briskly under the sun, her dress in a red begonia lined up brightly and movingly.
I couldn't help but think of that morning in the inn in that remote town, she was walking in the yard with a tray smiling.
At that time, she was like a small sapling with dewdrops, dripping and charming.
