C10 Changing the Maidservant
Gu Hong Yan caressed her heart, where was she still jumping uneasily? For some reason, Gu Hong Yan lost control of herself for a split-second every time she was in front of Rong Teng.
Gu Hongzhuang did not know, but she knew that the moment that Rong Tou was injured, her heart truly ached uncontrollably. She couldn't help but shout to herself: In your previous life, you died because of him.
Actually, Gu Hongzhuang had gained quite a bit from this trip. In his heart, the name 'Su Suiruo' had already deepened. It was all because of her identity as his best friend, and her similar gaze and temperament.
Although he had not interacted much with Su Suyun, he had at least interacted with her before. However, in his heart, Su Suo Ruo Ruo should not be like this. She was eloquent with her words and even gave a faintly discernible sense of pride.
The estrangement he felt was even more so not the same as when Gu Hongzhuang was alive. Rong Fen frowned; was it because of Gu Hongzhuang's death that Su Fusheng had turned into such an appearance? Rongfu didn't know, but he knew that he seemed to be starting to get interested in Su Yurun.
Upon returning to the Su palace, Gu Hongyan leaned on the bed and lightly smiled. She picked up the green bean cake beside the bed and placed it in her mouth.
"Since the net has been planted, when will the fish fall into it?"
Gu Hong Yan stretched out her hands to grab a bit and tightly clenched her hands, as if she could suppress it this way. She would be cheated and abused until she bit her tongue to commit suicide.
However, this maid, Gu Ruoyun, suddenly entered the room. Coincidentally, she had heard Gu Hongzhuang's words, but she didn't pay much attention to them. "Miss, what did you say just now?"
Only then did she realize that Gu Hongyan who had just entered the room had her eyebrows knitted together. A moment later, she relaxed, "Go and find some water bowls. Your hands are filled with crumbs of pastries; it's too sticky."
As if she had heard her master's words, she didn't doubt him. She hurriedly went to find some clean water and a square towel for Gu Hongzhuang, "Miss, please wash your hands quickly."
Putting her hand in the water, Gu Hong Yan felt a chill run down her spine. So this was how it felt to be alive? Gu Hongzhuang lightly smiled, but she couldn't really say any words of lament. She only felt that this was the only way to feel at ease.
He wiped his hands clean with a handkerchief and leaned back, looking at Gu Hong Yan with a serious expression, "Miss, if you need anything in the future, just call me servant, I don't need to do it myself."
Gu Hong Yan looked at the painting in front of her. She didn't know if it was believable or suspicious, but the painting was also suspicious of its young miss. Even though the young miss wasn't as lively as the second young miss and the young master, she was at most as gentle as water.
Even if the current young lady did not do anything, just by looking at her, one would feel a coldness that seemed to want to freeze one to death brewing within her. As if she was tightly frowning, she ultimately blamed all of this on the young lady's fall into the water.
"Miss, tomorrow is the emperor's banquet. Miss must dress up beautifully and find a good prince consort for me."
If it was a true Su Suo Ruo, she would also be embarrassed or blushing. However, in Su Suo Ruo's body, it was not Su Suo Ruo but Gu Hong Yan who was smiling.
Moreover, when it came to the topic of Prince Consort Ma, Gu Hongzhuang's heart ached. When she had been shocked, who said that he was unparalleled and unparalleled, but the final result? The result was a wasted life. The so-called desolation was only this much.
"Since when was it your turn to interfere in my affairs?" Gu Hong Yan tapped the table lightly with her fingertips, seeming to be deep in thought, "If you're like this, then maybe I can switch to a maid. It's not your place to criticize."
Gu Hongzhuang naturally knew that the painting was only for her own sake. However, the current environment made her feel a bit flustered and she almost lost her mind as she said those words. Looking at the picture who was kneeling and shivering in fear, Gu Hongzhuang felt some regret.
"Miss, we really don't have such a painting. You must believe us, ah, we were brought to the Su palace by you when we were young, so how could we have any thoughts of pointing fingers or pointing fingers at you? We are only worried about your future, Miss."
Future? Gu Hong Yan couldn't help but sigh. She had done things for Gu Hong Yan in the past, so how could she have imagined that her ending would be this kind of appearance? And now, her future didn't know that she would be able to leave everything to fate.
"You can leave now. Have Qin come in and serve."
Huanqin and Painted Man were sisters. Huanqin was big, while Painted Man was small. Previously, he chose her body as his personal servant, because he was too addicted to her. As for Huanqin, she became a first-rate servant girl.
For the current Gu Hongyan, it was better for her to be by her side with a calm and steady person. At least, it was better than jumping off too much, especially since tomorrow would be the Emperor's banquet. If there were any problems at the banquet, even death would not be able to escape her.
"Yes, miss." Gu Hong Yan knocked her head like a painting until it was slightly red and swollen. She wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and went to find her zither, which was currently carefully handling the broken pieces of Gu Hong Lao's work.
"Elder sister." When she heard the sound, she turned her head to look like a painting. She originally wanted to scold her younger sister, but when she saw how her younger sister was acting, she couldn't completely ignore her. "What's wrong?"
Upon hearing the words that a zither could not be considered to be of concern, Ruo Hua burst into tears in an instant. "Sis, I really want to do something I shouldn't have done. I've been disliked by the Miss, what should I do?"
Hearing her words, Qin Yi frowned, "What's wrong?" What did you do to make our Miss unhappy? "
"I, I already said that I would let the young miss dress up beautifully and find a good prince consort at the emperor's banquet. I … I didn't mean to say that on purpose. Who knew that the young miss would be angry." It wasn't that he didn't know what was wrong with the painting, but when he said this, his voice was choked with sobs.
Hugging her zither, Qing Shui smoothed down her hair that was as smooth as a painting, "I already told you to keep this in your mouth, but you refused to listen. Previously, Miss didn't blame you, but that was because Miss was kind.
Actually, all of the things that she said were very clear on the painting, it was just that the painting was used to Su Suliu's gentle appearance, and the change was still hard for the painting to accept. But no matter what, the painting never had any displeased feelings towards its young mistress, it just changed its appearance a little too quickly.
"Alright, alright. In the future, you can't call me sister anymore, okay?" Remember to call it a lute. " Hugging Qin also hoped that her silly little sister could gain some experience from this. In the future, she would not be so reckless and could be considered to have gained from misfortune.
In the end, Painted Man did not refute her and only nodded his head. He wanted to tell her that he knew, so he fell into silence. Painted Man suddenly remembered Gu Hongzhuang's instructions and anxiously told her, "Miss wants you to stay close to her."
Looking at the complicated situation in front of her, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to deal with it easily. She could only call him over to help her out. He was the daughter of the Su family, so he was naturally very loyal to the Su family.
Therefore, Huanqin also believed that Qingzhu wouldn't do anything ludicrous to her, so she gave these chores to Qingzhu and Ruo Ruo to deal with, while she hurried outside Gu Hongzhuang's room.
She lightly tapped on the door with her zither and heard Gu Hongzhuang's cold voice from inside, "Come in."
When Gu Hongzhuang let the painting leave, she was waiting for the guqin to come. Her impression of the guqin was still in her memories, but ever since she woke up, there were too many trivial matters and she really hadn't seen the guqin once.
The fact that there were not many people waiting made Gu Hong Yan slightly angry. She casually picked up a small book she made up on the bookshelf and looked at it. It was all thanks to her mother's temper that the room was not filled with any so-called virtuous or virtuous books.
While reading, Gu Hongzhuang was fearless of those things. It was the carefree and interesting thing described in this little book that attracted Gu Hongzhuang's attention. It was only when the door was lightly knocked that Gu Hongzhuang remembered to call Qin Chuan to her room.
"Miss, please punish us for coming late." Hugging Qin nodded and looked at the ground.
Gu Hongzhuang glanced at the guqin, she was indeed a pleasing person, "There's no need to be so courteous, it's good that you've come. Is that girl, Painting, angry at me? I do not wish to do this to you, but the banquet will soon approach. If you are to be accompanied by Painting, I'm afraid that quite a bit of trouble will occur. "
After listening to Gu Hongzhuang's words, she had no thoughts of refuting them. After all, she knew her little sister, so she naturally knew that what her little sister said was true. However, she was still her little sister.
"Send some pastries over for Painting, I'll apologize for her." Gu Hong Yan's lips curled up into a smile, but her eyes were still staring straight at the zither. Gu Hong Yan was naturally only hugging the zither and holding the painting; she would more or less feel somewhat uncomfortable about it.
She lowered her head and didn't dare to look into his eyes anymore, but in her heart, it seemed that the young miss had truly changed, but it wasn't a bad thing, after all, the way the young miss was before, was too quiet.
"Yes, I got it."
