Medical skills help me win the arrogant husband

Chapter 386
Gu Fuyun was startled. If this kind of person who is born with scheming enters the palace, he will be like a fish in water. A person like the crown prince, no matter how good at controlling others, dealing with this kind of person, I am afraid that he is playing tricks on a tiger.

Princess Ningguo said again: "Oh, by the way, and your fourth aunt, is she still doing well recently?"

Gu Fuyun was stunned and said: "Why are you mentioning her so well?"

Princess Ningguo smiled strangely: "A dog that can bark will not bite people, but a dog that can't bark will only hurt when it bites people. Recently, she has often been in contact with Lin Shuang, so you have to be careful."

Gu Fuyun took a deep breath, thinking of Tian's sudden modesty and kindness recently, he suddenly felt as if he was sitting on a tree.

Princess Ningguo won't let her go, so when she returned to the Duke's mansion, Gu Fuyun made arrangements for Tian's family to prevent problems before they happen.

After a few days, Tian, ​​the steward of the fourth room, sent someone to collect the bowls, chopsticks and tea sets from her.Gu Fuyun was surprised, and asked: "For such trivial matters, just go to the storeroom and find the collar of Li Yougen's family. Don't come to me." After all, Mrs. Tian is an elder, and even sent someone for a pair of bowls and chopsticks If you come to her to ask for it, if you tell her, outsiders will only say that she, the housekeeper who is a niece and daughter-in-law, is too stingy and petty.

The woman apologized and said with a smile: "Originally, the slaves also went to Li Yougen's family to collect them, but Li Yougen's family was checking the warehouse and was busy, so they really didn't have time to pay attention to me. She also said that she needed to get the nameplate of Mrs. Shao to withdraw the items. .”

Gu Fuyun did let the public know that in the future, anyone who goes to the warehouse to withdraw items must sign for it.Valuable items can only be withdrawn with a nameplate issued by Gu Fuyun.Each door of the famous house goes to the warehouse to withdraw money, and it must be signed in person.

It stands to reason that Tian's withdrawal of items from the warehouse is just some bowls, chopsticks and tea sets, and he doesn't even need to get the nameplate, just sign it.But it was a little abnormal that this old woman came to look for her.When it got out, I thought I was relying on the housekeeper to deduct my aunt's expenses.

"This Li Yougen's family is too disrespectful, this is using chicken feathers as an arrow." Gu Fuyun was a little angry, and immediately asked Li Yougen's family to come and question him.

The one from Li Yougen's family arrived soon, covered in dust, obviously eating a lot of dust after checking the warehouse.But she had an idea. Facing Gu Fuyun's inquiry, she calmly took out a booklet and handed it to Gu Fuyun.

"Young Madam, it's not that I took chicken feathers as arrows and refused to give them to the Fourth Wife. Please take a look, Young Madam. This is the order that the Fourth Madam came to the storeroom to collect in the past month. Almost every three or five days I have to come to pick up the bowls and chopsticks Tea sets, vases and antiques, even medicinal materials and cloth, are several times that of Sanfang. Sifang has such a small population, so it is really unreasonable to come here once or twice every few days.”

Gu Fuyun took the booklet and looked through it. This is the record of the withdrawals from the warehouses of each house this month. Sure enough, the number of withdrawals from the fourth house is indeed quite a lot, except for the bowls, chopsticks, tea sets, medicinal materials, needlework, and even cloth and satin. times.There is indeed something odd here.

The Tian family was arrested for corrupting Mo's mother-in-law's family to help her mother's family. It is impossible to repeat the old trick in such a short time, right?
So Gu Fuyun found Tian's mother-in-law Ji Mama.

Ji's mother's face froze for a while, and she couldn't say a word for a while.

Gu Fuyun knew that there was something tricky about it, but after all, she was the servant of the fourth aunt, and she didn't hesitate to take care of it too much as a niece and daughter-in-law, so she said, "Go back, I'll visit the fourth aunt when I have time. That's it. Because the warehouse is being cleaned up, today's tea set, bowls and chopsticks, I will deliver them to my fourth aunt myself later."

Mother Ji just left.

Before Gu Fuyun could go to visit Tian Shi, Tian Shi made a fuss.

The thing is like this, in the afternoon, someone from the Yanshou Hall called, saying that the old lady had guests, and Gu Fuyun was invited to receive them.

Gu Fuyun dressed up and went to Yanshou Hall. It turned out that it was Mrs. Chu's old best friend who had been with him for decades before returning to Beijing from Jinling. Mrs. Zhao, the old mother of Ge Lao Zhao Ruiying.

Mrs. Zhao is accompanied by a young girl named Cheng Xiaoying, who is the grandniece of the five-bedroom old lady of the Zhao family.

Gu Fuyun was dazzled by this relationship, the grandniece of the wife of Zhao's fifth wife's natal family has no blood relationship with Mrs. Zhao, why would she bring her with her to visit relatives and friends?

Later I heard Mrs. Zhao talk about Cheng Ying. Although she is the grandniece of the fifth room, she has always lived in the long room. Because the little girl is good at writing, she usually helps copy scriptures in her small Buddhist hall. She is also gentle and graceful, which is very popular with Mrs. Zhao, so she brought her with her when she came to Beijing this time.

After the two parties got acquainted with each other, Gu Fuyun asked people to serve tea, melon and fruit snacks again, and took the last seat.

The old lady's old girlfriend came to the door, and with such an identity, she couldn't be neglected.In particular, the Zhao family took the imperial examination route, which was a proper and noble family, and had a great reputation among the scholars. It was also called the Southern Zhao and Northern Song Dynasty together with the Tianjin Song family.Among the scholars in the world, he has a great reputation.Most of the Zhao family's children are officials in the court, Mrs. Zhao's eldest son, Zhao Xu, is an official minister of the Ministry of Rites. He joined the cabinet three years ago and is an extremely respected minister.The Zhao family, which was already at the peak of its glory, is even more famous all over the world.

Later, when Gu Fuyun learned that Zhao’s family had five jinshi, and the entire family had twelve members, his jaw dropped. Mrs. Zhao’s three sons and two grandsons were all born in jinshi, and the eldest grandson was twenty-two. He was ranked second in high school when he was old.

Thinking of the second elder brother who is in his early twenties and is only a famous scholar, Gu Fuyun admires this kind of family who are born to study.

Therefore, Gu Fuyun served Mrs. Zhao even more attentively.

In the eyes of Mrs. Zhao, the granddaughter-in-law of an old best friend is not an ordinary person. She was born in the Earl's Mansion, and she herself has the title of county lord. , on the other hand, she is generous, and she doesn't feel any flattery at all, only respectful and comprehensive.

Mrs. Zhao is very useful to be able to serve the dignified county lord. She feels that the old best friend has come to the end of all hardships and enjoys all the blessings.

The two old ladies had similar temperaments, and they chatted extremely speculatively, and they talked about the old things back then. Gu Fuyun and Cheng Xiaoying also listened very carefully, echoing and expressing their opinions from time to time.Later, both parties found that the other party's views were similar to their own, so they looked at each other and smiled.

Seeing that there were people cheering on their topic, the two old ladies talked more vigorously. When it was lively, Mrs. Tian came.

Gu Fuyun hurriedly stood up to greet her.

With the same sallow face, Tian Shi, who was either lotus green or azure blue and dressed in cool tones, was helped up by the maid.

Mrs. Chu suppressed her smile and said softly, "The weather is getting colder and you are not in good health, so just stay indoors and recuperate."

Tian smiled respectfully: "It's okay, it's just an old problem, it's the same thing whether you keep it or not."

After sitting down, Mrs. Tian spoke a few words with Mrs. Zhao, and gave Cheng Xiaoying a thin silver hairpin as a greeting gift.

Also because of Tian's arrival, the two old people's eloquent chatter was interrupted, and the atmosphere became somewhat cold, and they just maintained a neither salty nor dull conversation.

Gu Fuyun also complained that Mrs. Tian came at an untimely time, which caused her to be unable to come down when she heard something exciting.But it's not good to urge the two old people to continue talking in front of Tian's face. After all, the two old people are talking about the privacy of other people's families, and the grand scene of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fighting.

Gu Fuyun saw that the atmosphere was a bit cold, so he stood up and said: "It's getting late, I'll let someone prepare the meals. I wonder if you have any taboos, old lady?"

Mrs. Chu immediately said: "If you have any taboos, tell my granddaughter-in-law that you are welcome at our house."

Mrs. Zhao said with a smile: "Your grandparents are so enthusiastic, I don't want to be polite." Then she looked at Cheng Xiaoying and said with a smile, "Xiaoying knows my eating habits best."

Cheng Xiaoying really talked about Mrs. Zhao's eating habits: "...the old lady likes to eat sweets, easy to digest, and also likes to eat light food. By the way, the old lady doesn't like to eat coriander, nor does she like to eat garlic."

Gu Fuyun nodded with a smile, it could be seen that although Cheng Xiaoying was not Mrs. Zhao's granddaughter, she really had face in front of the old lady, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to clearly understand the dietary restrictions.

Gu Fuyun smiled and asked Cheng Xiaoying: "Then what about you, what are your taboos?"

"Me?" Cheng Xiaoying was overwhelmed by flattery. She felt that she was only a lady of the fifth-rank civil official's family, and she was uneasy to be entertained by the dignified county magistrate in person. She didn't dare to make a request, so she quickly said, "I have nothing to avoid. I and the boss It’s the same as my wife’s.” Then he said apologetically, “I’ve been eating and drinking for nothing these days when I’m with the old lady.”

Gu Fuyun smiled lightly, liking this girl very much.

Gu Fuyun asked Tian again.

Tian said: "Daughter-in-law, I'm not in good health. I don't usually eat with everyone. I usually eat alone. I guess you don't know my taste."

Gu Fuyun smiled and said: "That's the reason. What taboos does Fourth Aunt have? Let me tell you so I can explain to the kitchen."

Tian said: "I'm not in good health. I shouldn't have dinner with the elders, so as not to overwhelm the elders. It's just that there is not even a decent tea set, bowls and chopsticks in the room, so I can only eat with the old lady's face. ate."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Fuyun immediately thought that this person wanted bad food.

Sure enough, Mrs. Chu immediately asked, "What happened in your room?"

Mrs. Tian waited for Mrs. Chu's words, and hurriedly said: "Old lady, the bowls, chopsticks and tea sets in my house are gone. Today I asked someone to go to the warehouse to pick them up, but the warehouseman said that this matter has to go through Da Lang. My daughter-in-law agrees. My dowry went to Dalang’s wife again, but Dalang’s wife didn’t give me an accurate answer. I just took the medicine and couldn’t leave. I had to wait until the effect of the medicine wore off and I was able to walk, so I went to look for it. Dalang's daughter-in-law asked what happened. She just went to Wanyue Hall and learned that Dalang's daughter-in-law was accompanying the guests at the old lady's place, so she had to follow." Then she said to Mrs. Chu, "These small things shouldn't be in the old lady's place. I said it to you before. But since the old lady asked about it, I naturally have to talk about it." Then he said to Gu Fuyun, "Daughter-in-law, tell me, but the fourth aunt is not warm enough to you usually? So even the mere You won't even give me the tea set, bowls and chopsticks?"

　People like Tian are stupid, but if a stupid person does stupid things, it will give you a headache.I spent so much pen and ink writing her, it must be intentional, the next chapter will see the outcome.
