Because the Qiyang Marquis Mansion is relatively close to An Guo Gong's Mansion, he was the first to return to An Guo Gong's Mansion in ancient times. After arriving, he saw Zhou lying on the bed with a sallow face and a haggard face, as if he had aged for more than ten years. I couldn't help being shocked at first.
Obviously everything is going well in Duke Anguo's house, Zhou's son has made progress, and her grandchildren have been born. This is the time when she should start to take care of herself and enjoy the happiness of her children and grandchildren. Why is she like this?
"Auntie, what's wrong with you? What did the doctor say? Just tell me if you need any medicinal materials." Gu Shichu asked very politely.
When Mrs. Zhou saw it was her, the light in her eyes immediately went out, and she said weakly: "The doctor said that I just caught a cold recently and ate some food that hurt my stomach, plus I had a migraine and couldn't sleep well, so I became seriously ill. some……"
Gu Zicchu heard that it was a cold, a stomachache, and a headache. It was really strange that these diseases all happened together. But it had nothing to do with her. She and Zhou were just in love for face. That's all, it would be a kindness to come back and see her, but he wouldn't really be upset because of her illness.
Now that Gu Shichu was the wife of the Marquis of Qiyang, Mrs. Zhou could no longer ignore her just because he wanted to ignore her as before. Instead, she had to endure her physical discomfort and exchange a few words with Gu Shichu.
Fortunately, Zhou's two concubines arrived soon. They greeted Zhou as if they were their own mothers and daughters. In fact, the two concubines were only superficially concerned and concerned.
In the early days of Gu Shi, the relationship with the two cousins was just average and there was nothing to talk about, so they started chatting without any embarrassment. Zhou still didn't say the reason for calling them back.
Just when Gu Shichu became impatient and wanted to say goodbye, Gu Shi Yao finally arrived.
As soon as she entered the door, she rushed to Zhou's bed, threw herself at Zhou and shouted heartbrokenly: "Mother! Mother! Why are you sick again?"
The shrill cries made it seem as if Zhou had passed away and she was crying in mourning.
Mrs. Zhou looked like she was dying just now, but when Gu Shiyao came, she immediately reached out and hugged Gu Shiyao, patted her daughter on the back with tears in her eyes, and complained: "You haven't been here for so long. Come to see me, I thought I wouldn’t be able to see you even if I’m sick..."
Gu Shichu and his two cousins looked at each other for a few times, then curled their lips. Sure enough, the biological child is the biological child. Only in front of her biological daughter would Mrs. Zhou show such true feelings. However, everyone was pretending before, so they couldn't. Just say that Zhou is hypocritical.
The mother and daughter cried for a long time before finally stopping. Gu Shiyao wiped her tears and said hello to several sisters.
After Gu Shichu saw Gu Shiyao's current appearance, he was shocked again. How could she become so ugly? Obviously before she got married, Gu Shi Yao was still a very pretty girl. Although she was not a beautiful girl, she still had shiny black hair, fair skin, red lips, and a girl's fair and rosy cheeks. .
But now Gu Shi Yao has dull and dry hair, pale face, dry lips, and sunken cheeks. She has aged ten years all of a sudden, from a bright and plump girl to a beautiful girl. Some mean young women have lost not a little bit of their beauty.
Didn't she marry Tang Buqing, the future prime minister whom she longed for? Isn’t your wish fulfilled? That should make you feel satisfied and happy.
In fact, it is easy to tell whether a woman is living well after getting married. Her expressions, movements, postures, and tone of voice. If she is living well, these aspects must be relaxed and happy; if she is living well, she will be relaxed and happy; If you have a bad life, you will definitely be gloomy and negative.
Although Gu Shiyao tried her best to smile at this moment, her complexion and appearance already showed her state during this period, which could not be concealed even with the best rouge.
"Third sister, I see you are radiant and looking very good. You must be having a good time in Qiyang Marquis Mansion, right?" When Gu Shiyao saw Gu Shichu, she felt it was very annoying, because Gu Shichu looked like this right now. She is completely different from when she was not married. When she was not married, her clothes and jewelry were very ordinary, and there were very few bright colors. No one in the family paid much attention to her.
But now, in ancient times, I was wearing clothes made of tribute cloud silk. The hairpin on my head looked extremely precious at first glance. The pearl earrings on my ears were large and round. They were not ordinary at first glance. …
Even a beautiful woman needs gorgeous clothes and jewelry to reflect her noble identity and status.
Gu Shiyao looked at the clothes on her body and immediately regretted that she didn't dress up more when she came back. She was stunned that Gu Shichu had compared herself with him.
Gu Shichu saw the jealousy towards her in Gu Shiyao's eyes. She smiled softly, nodded and said, "Of course, Mrs. Hou is very good to me. We don't need to say hello every morning and evening, and I don't need to be around to look after her." Tea and water were served, and the money in the accounting room was at my disposal; the prince also loved me very much, and gave me all kinds of jewelry and rare treasures as if they were free. I asked him not to spend any money, but he refused to listen... …”
Gu Shiyao's speech at Versailles in the early days made Gu Shiyao's eyes turn red. She could imagine it, because in her previous life, Mrs. Qi Yanghou did not feel sorry for her at all. Even if she didn't like her at first, she still gave her everything. A lot of freedom.
Although Mingxun didn't give her jewelry or rare treasures, he never treated her badly and agreed to all the reasonable requests she made.
Gu Shi Yao thought about it and compared it with her current experience in the Tang family. She felt sour and astringent, jealous and regretful, bitter and aggrieved. She suddenly didn't know what it felt like. She didn't know what it was like. I know whether it is better to live a free and comfortable life in the Qiyang Marquis Mansion but destined to decline, or to endure the Tang family's mother's various tricks and make her suffer unspeakable harsh treatment and then be able to be a husband and a wife. Good day.
Why can't we have the best of both worlds? God allowed her to be reborn, so did she have to go through such pain to get everything she wanted? In ancient times, Yao was unwilling and painful.
She didn't want to endure Mother Tang's humiliation anymore, but she was not willing to give up her position as the future wife of the prime minister.
Sugarcane is not as sweet as both ends. She suffered and suffered, and became what she is now.
It's not like she didn't tell Tang Buqing about her mother-in-law's harsh treatment of her, but when Tang Buqing heard what she said, he scolded her severely, saying that she was unfilial to her mother-in-law and not gentle enough. If she did Good enough, her mother would definitely not treat her badly. He also said that his mother had suffered so much in the past that she couldn't care about it, and asked her to be patient...
So Gu Shi Yao gave up, knowing that Tang Buqing was on his mother's side.
Gu Shiyao also came back to inform Anguo, hoping that her father would give Tang Buqing a little warning so that his mother would not go too far.
But what followed was Tang Buqing's cold violence against her and Tang's mother's more subtle and justifiable tactics. It can be said that her life was even worse than before.
