Ping An took Cai Jing to her residence, while Cai Wei stayed to help her master change. She first changed him into home clothes, then took off his hair crown, loosened his hair, and helped him straighten his hair. Gu Jingzhi's hair Black and thick, Caiwei combed her hair from the top of her head to the tips.
Gu Jingzhi closed his eyes, frowned, and remained silent.
Caiwei asked softly: "Second Master, why are you so unhappy when I look at you! Did something happen?"
Gu Jingzhi opened his eyes, sighed and said, "I'm worried about something that hasn't happened yet! Today is the first day of May, and the Dragon Boat Festival is coming soon. My grandmother passed away on that day in her last life. My grandmother has passed away in recent years. It is true that her body and bones are not in good condition. I asked Dr. Zhang and he also said that my grandmother does not have any fatal disease. Logically speaking, she should not reach her end of life." He held down Caiwei's hand to prevent her from combing her hair and pulled her away. He came over, asked her to sit next to him, and then said: "I suspected that someone had assassinated my grandmother. I checked my grandmother's yard in detail, but I didn't find anyone suspicious around her. Please help me analyze it, who wants to harm my grandmother, or Grandma has really reached longevity."
Caiwei is only thirty-five years old in modern times. Her parents are still alive and she is in very good health. She doesn’t know much about the old man’s physical illness, so she doesn’t dare to talk nonsense. She can only shake her head helplessly, “Second Master, I don’t have any Know."
Gu Jingzhi in the Gu Family Fort in the south of the capital was frowning, while Song Wanru in the Ruyi Courtyard of the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion in the capital city also had a sad look on her face.
Aunt Dong was combing Song Wanru's hair with her hands, and she kept mumbling, "Our prince doesn't know what kind of housekeepers he can find to look after the house. The food in the eight major granaries was just lost, and no one noticed it?" Isn't a million kilograms of grain a small amount? How long will it take to transport it all? Even if there is no mole, my old lady won't believe it."
Song Wanru's eyelids were a little swollen, and her eyes were dark. It was obvious that she had not slept well at night, and her voice was low and weak, "My father beat more than ten people to death, but he still didn't find out the culprits. How can such a large amount of food be kept secret?" There are many people living around Zhuangzi, and no one knows when the grain transport vehicles are passing by." He sighed and said to Aunt Dong, "Mom, help me massage my head, I have a severe headache."
Aunt Dong put the wooden comb on the dressing table, pressed her temples a few times, and tapped the top of her head more than ten times with both hands. Only then did Song Wanru feel better. She raised her head, looked at Aunt Dong and said, "Mom During the day, Jiang Ji sent a letter saying that my father asked Huainan to write another letter to Zuo Ruzhou. I am worried about what to do!"
"Miss, my uncle will never agree with his temper. Last time you persuaded my uncle to write a letter, he was so angry that he walked away in anger. He didn't come to Ruyi Courtyard for two months. You must not mention writing a letter to your uncle this time. ." Nanny Dong said anxiously.
Song Wanru nodded and said: "I listened to my mother. Since my father didn't see that the last letter was from me, I will just write another one tomorrow."
Aunt Dong smiled, "My young lady is very capable. She was able to copy the handwriting of my uncle and look fake. The prince didn't notice it, and I didn't expect that even Jiang Ji didn't see the clues."
Song Wanru admired Gu Huainan, and she often copied his notes to pass the time every day when she had nothing to do. Unexpectedly, they came in handy. After being praised by Aunt Dong, she was secretly proud of herself and smiled. Then she frowned again and said worriedly: "My father already has Huainan's handwritten letter in his hand, why do we need another one..." Suddenly something shocked came to mind. He said: "Mom, do you think the letters in my father's hand were stolen along with the food?"
Song Wanru's mind was racing. Thinking of this possibility, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she felt. She took Manny Dong's hand and trembled, "Mom, it's not good. My father's failure has been discovered. What should I do? What should I do, mother?" ?”
Aunt Dong forced herself to calm down, hugged her, and comforted her: "Miss, don't be afraid. It has been some time since the food was stolen. The prince is still fine now, which means that the matter has not been exposed."
Song Wanru had the right idea. She sat down and thought about it silently for a while. After thinking about it for a while, she finally made up her mind. She raised her head, stared at Aunt Dong and said, "Mom, is Lu Guiju okay?"
Aunt Dong nodded and said bitterly: "I'm all healed now. The old lady wanted to recruit her to serve her many times, but that old bitch actually said that she had to be completely cured and leave no trace of the disease behind before she dared to go to the old lady's room. go."
"So the old beggar doesn't know that the concubines she arranged for her two grandsons are nine-year-old girls." Song Wanru gloated as she tapped the table with her delicate hands.
Aunt Dong laughed when she heard this, her old face wrinkled like a walnut skin, "Of course I don't know! Which slave except Lu Guiju would dare to tell the truth to the old lady."
Song Wanru's mouth curved and her eyes turned cold, "How can I keep my mother-in-law in the dark? Mom, find a way to let her know about this!"
Aunt Dong nodded in agreement, and Song Wanru asked again: "Mom, is the silver bell okay in Zhuangzi? It's her turn to perform!"
Aunt Dong squinted her eyes and smiled maliciously, "Miss, I have made all the arrangements, just take a look!"
Song Wanru's eyes were cold, but her tone was very gentle, and she said slowly: "Mom, there is nothing we can do. For the sake of Shen'er and Xing'er, my good mother-in-law will definitely understand us."
