Chapter 78 Rewards
There are all legends about Chu Rui outside, but the Gu family is relatively calm.

The prince was taken to Caishikou and beheaded for public display, with blood spattered three feet.In addition, there were several descendants of the aristocratic family who followed the prince before, a total of six people, and five of them were all beheaded.The families behind these five people also fell into bad luck. They all ransacked their homes and exiled the whole family to a bitter cold place three thousand miles away.

The only one who was not beheaded was Chu Shuo, the second son of Duke Protector's Mansion.

"He is lucky, and he obviously participated in the rebellion, but because his brother is a famous person around the emperor, he has made great contributions this time, and the emperor let Chu Shuo go for the sake of the son of Chu."

Gu Xiaoyun looked at Gu Fuyun, and said seriously: "So, this Chu Rui is not really disrespectful."

It just so happened that it was the day of Muxiu again, so Gu Xiaoyun said this to Gu Qingyun.

Gu Fuyun had already figured out a way out for himself, but instead of asking whether Chu Rui's current reputation is a bully or a ruthless one, he was only thinking, should the emperor be rewarded for his merits after he has dealt with these bad things?

Sure enough, on the second day, the emperor's reward came down.

The Gu family hadn't received an imperial edict for many years, and this time when the imperial edict came to their door, they were all dumbfounded.These days, the extermination and disappearance of four lords and one noble family has changed the color of everyone talking about the imperial decree.

Fortunately, this is the imperial decree of reward.A good compliment to Gu Fuyun, and two mountain tops, five hundred taels of silver, one hundred taels of gold, and a lot of gold, silver, jade, cloth, satin and other rewards.There are a lot of beautiful things in eyes, and several large boxes are placed.

Seeing the rewards in several large boxes, everyone's eyes were straightened.

Gu Xiaoyun pinched Gu Fuyun's face: "How could a well-behaved emperor reward you?"

Gu Fuyun hurriedly said: "I did a little favor for the emperor."

The old lady didn't ask any more questions.The imperial gift this time is full of beautiful things in eyes, all of which are precious and rare, and any one of them is priceless.

Obviously, Wu Yatou not only saved the fifth princess, but also made other contributions.

The old lady suppressed her emotions, looked at everyone's envious and jealous expressions, and said, "This is bestowed by the Holy Lord on the fifth girl, so naturally the fifth girl will be the master. Take all the sacred objects to Hanxiangyuan."

The second wife, Mrs. Jin, was so jealous that her eyes were red, and she hurriedly said: "Old lady, the fifth girl is a girl of our Gu family, and these rewards should go to the public school." Her two sons are still unmarried. One or two sacred objects bestowed by the imperial court come out to save face and serve as confidant objects, which will definitely elevate the status.

The eldest wife, Zhou Shi, is also a little jealous, but she is not as shallow-sighted as Jin Shi. Hearing this, she just sneered and said, "Second brother and sister, your mother's family also sent a lot of good things before, why not combine them together?" How about entering the public school?"

The Jin family came from a fourth-rank official family. Although it was not as good as the Zhou family from a prestigious family, he also beat up the Qiao family from an ordinary small official family. Hearing this, he said: "It was given to me by my natal family. How can I enter the public office?" ?”

Zhou said: "These are all given to the five girls by the Holy Majesty, how can they be admitted to the public?"

"That's different," Kim said.

"Why is it different?" The old lady's voice was cold.

The Jin family was still more afraid of the old lady, so her voice was much lower, and she said in a low voice: "Old lady, the daughter-in-law is also for the sake of the family. Our sisters and brothers have grown up, and the marriage and marriage expenses are frequent. For the sake of the whole family."

The old lady said coldly: "The aunt in the next room is actually greedy for the things that my niece bestowed. If it spreads, you are shameless, and I want more? Brother Heng Cheng has a mother like you, it is really a shame for them. Then he reprimanded the second master, Gu Gaojie, "Look at the good wife you married, she is still a young lady from a noble family, her eyelids are so shallow, is the character of a scholarly disciple fed to the dog? It's really embarrassing." Walked away.

Gu Gaojie blushed when he was reprimanded, and glared at Jin Shi: "It's not appropriate." He also walked away with a flick of his sleeve.

Mrs. Jin was so scolded that she couldn't get off the stage, so she twisted her handkerchief and cried to Mrs. Zhou, "I'm not doing it for the good of the Gu family... Fifth girl has got so many good things, shouldn't she give some to the public? How can she be alone?" To enjoy it alone? It would be too selfish."

Mrs. Qiao was a little hesitant, but she still said: "Second sister-in-law, what you said is inappropriate, and Ah Fu didn't say that you don't want to share it with everyone. You just label Ah Fu as selfish, how can you be an elder?" ?”

"Mother, it can't be false to say that the same is true." Gu Fuyun said, "Second Aunt, you're really right, I'm just that selfish."

"Although I'm selfish, I can't compare to Second Aunt. At least I won't be jealous of others and force them to confiscate good things. Auntie, is Second Aunt really a student of the scholarly family? Why did she become a robber in a grandiose way?" ?”

Gu Fuyun was not polite to the Jin family.She has seen this kind of person a lot, and she cannot be polite to this kind of moral bitch.The more polite you are with her, the more she rubs her nose on her face.She is Yu Jiahui, not the real Gu Fuyun, so she won't wrong herself for the so-called "generous" reputation. She wants to be selfish, what's wrong?Come and bite me?

Jin Shi was so angry that his hands and feet trembled: "Fifth girl, I am your elder after all, is this how you talk to elders?"

Gu Xiaoyun said unceremoniously: "Before the second aunt accused the fifth sister, did she ever think that you are an elder? A dignified elder, you openly took the idea of ​​the niece's gift. This is more contemptible than selfishness."

Mrs. Jin was accused of being unable to step down, and glared at Mrs. Qiao angrily: "Third siblings, you have raised two good daughters. If you have climbed a high branch, you will not pay attention to your elders."

Gu Xiaoyun's future husband's family is the second son of the Zuo Shilang's mansion of the Ministry of Rites, and Gu Fuyun is also the unmarried wife of the son of the protector of the country. Among the girls in the Gu family, the two sisters of the third room are indeed high-ranking.

Mrs. Qiao was about to speak, but was stopped by Gu Xiaoyun: "The fifth sister and I were able to climb high branches because of my grandmother and my mother's good teaching. Our sister's marriage was also arranged by my grandmother. If the third aunt would be jealous of this, Why don't you give birth to a daughter-in-law yourself. What are you doing just bullying my mother? Are you picking the soft persimmons?"

Gu Fuyun looked at Gu Xiaoyun, this second sister really dared to say anything, but the words were beautiful.

Jin Shi, who loves pink eye, is a disease that needs to be cured, and he must be treated severely, but he can't get used to it, the more he gets used to it, the more he rubs his nose and face.

Kim fell down angrily.

Gu Fuyun ignored Mrs. Jin, and said to Mrs. Qiao: "Mother, I will tidy things up first, and then I will honor my grandmother and the elders in the family after a while. I am a selfish person, so don't count on Second Aunt Bar."

She smiled again and said to her sisters: "Sister three, sister six, sister seven, come and play in my yard later." And directed the servants to carry all the things to her Hanxiang courtyard.

Gu Qingyun and Gu Shuyun nodded reservedly, and left with Mrs. Zhou.

Mrs. Zhou said privately to the two sisters: "I can tell that Wuyatou is a soft eater. You go to Wuyatou's courtyard in a while, so don't talk too much. Just follow what they give you. Don't worry." Don't learn from your second aunt, your eyelids are too shallow."

Gu Qingyun snorted softly: "Who cares about her."

Mrs. Zhou's face darkened: "Don't give up what is bestowed by the emperor for nothing. Although Mother told you not to be shallow-sighted like Sanfang, there is no need to pretend to be lofty and have trouble with property."

Gu Qingyun didn't speak anymore.

In Hanxiang Courtyard, the maids are all busy.Shuqing led Qinghong, and directed the servant girls to re-register all the imperial gifts and make a new book, and write a new book for those that are too expensive, and write another book for those suitable for giving away, and keep the land deeds and rewards of gold and silver. Went into the closet and locked it.The beaded headdresses needed to be shared with the sisters, and the silk satin gave Zhou Shi two bolts of gold makeup and flower forging noodles.

"Send these few pieces of material to my aunt, and ask a tailor to come and measure our sisters, and each of us will make a set of clothes." Gu Fuyun pointed to another piece of ginger-yellow makeup wrought noodles with a slightly darker color. "Tell my aunt that this piece of material is specially dedicated to my grandmother, and I will ask my aunt to decide the rest of the material."

"These ginseng and deer ears are all kept, and half a catty of the bird's nest is given to the grandmother." The rest of the bird's nest is naturally eaten by myself.Bird's nest is a good thing for nourishing and beautifying the skin. It is not worth eating.

"From now on, cook three bowls of white fungus, bird's nest and red date porridge for me every day, remember, cook three bowls every day." Gu Fuyun said to Qing'e.

Qing'e asked: "Why do you have to boil three bowls?"

"One bowl for me, one bowl for my third sister, and one bowl for my mother, stupid." Bird's nest is a good thing, and most people can't afford it.The emperor was so generous, he actually gave two catties of bird's nest in one go, and gave half a catty of bird's nest to the old lady. One or two of the remaining bird's nest was enough for a month or two.

After dividing up what was due, Gu Fuyun asked someone to invite a few sisters.

Soon, Gu Qingyun, Gu Shuyun, and Gu Xiaoyun from the eldest room all came.

Gu Youyun of the second room didn't come, she didn't dare to come even if she wanted to, because she was worried about the face of her aunt Jin.

Gu Fuyun pointed to the dazzling array of beads on the table and said to the sisters: "Sisters, hurry up and choose two pieces by yourself."

Gu Qingyun already knew that Gu Fuyun gave her mother two bolts of brocade with gold makeup all over the floor, and wanted to cut a set of clothes for each of their sisters. With short hands, most of the dissatisfaction with Gu Fuyun dissipated.Now he looked at the table full of bead ornaments, either red gold or inlaid with hundreds of treasures, phoenix hairpins, hairpins, earrings, bracelets...there were all kinds of them, which made people dazzled.

Gu Xiaoyun was also polite, and picked out the largest hanging bead hairpin with emerald emeralds and rubies inlaid, and a red gold phoenix hairpin.

Gu Qingyun smiled lightly and said, "Fifth Sister asked me to choose, so I'm not welcome." Following Gu Xiaoyun's example, she chose a hairpin with hanging pearls and a hairpin with peacocks holding pearls.

Gu Shuyun chose a set of east pearl sapphire earrings and a red gold phoenix hairpin inlaid with sapphires.

Gu Fuyun asked everyone: "Let's choose another piece of jewelry for my sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, what kind of jewelry do you think I should choose?"

Gu Xiaoyun said: "I have to ask the sixth and seventh sisters what my sister-in-law likes. As for the second sister-in-law, I think this golden step shaker with emeralds and jade is quite suitable for her." On, to restrict the pace of walking too fast.

Gu Qingyun looked at the remaining beads on the table, and said: "This ruby ​​forehead is suitable for sister-in-law."

The elder sister-in-law Jiang's forehead is a bit wide, so various forehead wipes have become one of Jiang's important makeup.

Gu Fuyun picked up Jin Buyao and Ruby Wipe respectively, and asked Gu Xiaoyun and Gu Qingyun to transfer them.

"Aren't you going to deliver it yourself?" Gu Xiaoyun asked.

"No, the weather is hot, so I don't suffer from the heat." Gu Fuyun asked Gu Xiaoyun again, "Fourth Sister, do you want to send someone to send her over there?" .All the other sisters gave away, except Gu Youyun's share, it's okay for a forgiving person, but Gu Youyun's heart is not very big.

Gu Xiaoyun thought for a while and said, "Let's forget it. If the second aunt finds out, the fourth sister may not have a good life. If you want to send it, you can only send it in private, don't let the second aunt know."

The relationship between Gu Fuyun and Gu Youyun's sisters is weak, and Gu Youyun is a concubine, so she doesn't usually play with them much. Seeing that her sister said so, Gu Fuyun gave up and stopped mentioning Gu Youyun.He only randomly selected two pieces of jewelry and handed them to Shu Qing, who asked her to send the little maid to send them to Gu Youyun privately.

 Sixth watch, I want tickets, I want collections, I want flowers, I want everything anyway
