Chapter 92
She has been serving the fourth concubine since she was eight years old. At that time, the concubine was not yet married. Later, the concubine married the concubine. Because of her cleverness, she took her by her side and made a living. My confidant, for so many years, besides the pure concubine and the crown princess in the palace, I have never seen anyone who the fourth prince and concubine valued so much.Therefore, even though the woman in front of her was so wealthy, she didn't dare to have any contempt for her, and just respected her blindly.

Gu Qingmei smiled and said: "It's just right, I also have something I want to find the fourth prince concubine, girl, wait a moment, I will clean up."

With that said, Gu Qingmei took out two exquisite small handbags from the cabinet, stuffed money bags, combs, small mirrors, handkerchiefs and other sundries into one handbag, and stuffed some toilet paper in the interlayer.

Su Yan looked at her handbag, and couldn't help but wondered, "Your bag is interesting."

"This is a handbag I made myself. It's more convenient to carry things when I go out." Gu Qingmei said with a smile, and handed her another empty handbag. "This handbag is for you. When you usually go out with your four princes and concubines, you can put some miscellaneous things in it, so as not to stuff all your things in your bosom, making the bag look ugly."

"Ouch!" Su Yan looked at her handbag fondly. "That's it, thank you very much!"

Seeing that Gu Shaoya had already made tea and brought it in, Gu Qingmei said to her: "My good girl, wait a moment and have a sip of tea, and I'll go talk to my mother."

After she finished speaking, she turned and went to Dongli Room, where Mrs. Gu Liu was doing needlework on the kang to make a summer robe for her youngest son.

Gu Qingmei said softly: "Mother, the Fourth Imperial Concubine sent someone to pick me up, and I won't be able to come back until evening, so please take care of the children."

When Gu Liushi heard the name of the fourth concubine, she almost got her hand pricked with a needle. She said in disbelief, "You...you...why does the fourth concubine want you?"

"I gave the fourth princess an idea to let her do business. She may have asked me to discuss the details."

"Oh... this... how can this be good?" Gu Liushi couldn't help being anxious.

Gu Qingmei knew that the name of the fourth concubine scared her mother, so she comforted her and said: "Mother, what is there to be nervous about? The fourth concubine is very kind and will not do anything to me. You are born at home. Be back in no time."

Gu Liushi also knew that the fourth concubine sent someone to invite her, so she must go, so she told her: "Then you go, don't talk nonsense, if you say the wrong thing, you will cause trouble for yourself!"

"I see!" Gu Qingmei nodded. "If someone asks, don't tell the story, just say that I went to a relative's house, so as not to let people with ulterior motives know."

"Okay! I understand!" Gu Liushi nodded solemnly.

"Then I'm leaving!" Gu Qingmei returned to her room, picked up her handbag, and said. "You can go!"

Su Yan took her out and got into the carriage.

Sitting on this carriage, Gu Qingmei couldn't help admiring. It is estimated that this carriage is here, just like the limited edition Ferrari in her previous life. Not to mention, the pillows made of decorative satin alone are worth the price. Not cheap.

I don't know what kind of material the cushion under the buttocks is made of. It's not hot at all to sit on it in the hot summer, but it's cool.

The carriage walked for about half an hour. Because of the rough road, Gu Qingmei in the carriage was shaken to the point that she felt sick all the time. She kept complaining in her heart that this kind of carriage didn't even have a shock absorber system. human torture.

On the contrary, Su Yan, perhaps because she was used to it, never changed her expression.

Finally, the carriage stopped, and the driver lifted the curtain and said, "You two girls, we're here!"

Su Yan said: "Miss Gu, let's go down."

Gu Qingmei rested for a while, then got out of the carriage with her luggage, stepped on the footstool and stood on the ground, feeling like returning from a catastrophe.

She stood there, took a few breaths, raised her eyes to look around, and saw a very imposing vermilion lacquer gate, at least one foot high, covered with copper nails, and there were several people dressed in blue standing at the gate. A guard in silk clothes and a moon-white inner coat.

Looking at the dark gray courtyard wall, it is more than one foot high, showing the extraordinary identity of the owner here.

Su Yan smiled and said: "This is the other courtyard where our fourth concubine is dowry, Miss Gu, please come with me!"

As she spoke, she led Gu Qingmei in. After entering the door, she was faced with a shadow wall, on which a Chinese character "Fu" was built with bricks and stones of different colors.

Bypassing the screen wall, there are two rectangular lotus ponds built with bluestone slabs on the left and right. At this time, midsummer is the season of lotus blooming, and the pond is full of pink lotus petals, one after another, delicate Blooming in green lotus leaves.

After passing through the corridor between the two lotus ponds, there is an antechamber for receiving guests. There is a large antechamber in the middle and two side halls on both sides.

Turning from the road between the side hall on the right and the front hall, there is a nine-curved corridor extending in all directions, winding along the corridor, and at the end of the corridor is a very spacious courtyard.

On one side of the wall at the gate of the courtyard, there are three large characters of Lanzhouyuan piled up with black gravel.

There were two women guarding the door, and when they saw Su Yan greeting them with a smile all over her face, Su Yan walked in arrogantly towards them.

Gu Qingmei had just arrived here, and she didn't know the market here, and she didn't dare to give rewards casually. She was afraid that if she gave too little, she would make people laugh, and if she gave too much, she would spoil their appetite, so she just smiled at them, and followed Walked in behind Su Yan.

I saw a square courtyard full of rooms with cloisters, carved railings and painted columns, which were extremely delicate.

Gu Qingmei estimated that the yard alone must have at least 150 square meters.

In the courtyard, there is a crabapple planted with bright pink petals hanging on the branches in clusters, like a shy lady hanging on her pink face.

There are a few maids waiting for errands sitting under the porch of the main room. Judging by the clothes on their bodies, they should be of a lower status than Su Yan.

When she came to the door of the main room, Su Yan said with a smile: "Miss Gu, you stay here for a while, I will go in and report to our fourth prince and concubine."

"Okay!" Gu Qingmei agreed, and then stood on the porch, looking for a shady place.

Those little maids were all looking at her curiously, but she didn't take it seriously. At this moment, she suddenly heard a woman's charming voice coming from the room.

"Sister, it's not that I, the younger sister, is making things difficult for her. It's really Mrs. Bai who went too far. She pretended to be sick and refused to come to pay her respects to her. I have nothing to do with it. I'm just not worth it for my sister."

Then the voice of the Fourth Prince's Concubine rang out slowly, "She is not in good health, she should rest more."
