Gu Zhiya almost bit her silver teeth. How could she catch the cold? The day before yesterday, when she came to greet the old lady, the maid also said that she was resting. , Between her and Zhong Li, Zhong Li was chosen.

She wanted to walk away in a rage, but she didn't dare to act willfully. She knelt down at the entrance of Yangxintang, kowtowed three times, and cried while kowtowing: "My granddaughter is not filial, and I will not be able to do my best in front of my grandmother in the future. Filial piety, I hope grandma will take care of her health in the future."

Indoors, the old lady naturally heard her words.

She closed her eyes and still didn't see her.

Gu Zhiya was persuaded by the maid, and then went to Zhenbeihou.

The residence of Zhenbeihou is in the front yard. His residence is the one with the most houses, with red bricks and green tiles, magnificent buildings, and two plane trees are planted at the entrance of the courtyard.

At this time, the Duke of Zhenbei was lying on the couch, closing his eyes and resting.

In just a few days, he seemed to be ten years older, with gray hair on his temples, and he also contracted a cold. He has been sick at home these few days. For him, the cold is actually no problem. What makes him so miserable is actually a heart disease.

When he learned that Gu Zhiya came to say goodbye, Zhenbei Hou didn't want to see her. Thinking of Zhong's matter, he finally said, "Let her come in."

After he finished speaking, he got up from the couch and went to the outside.

Gu Zhiya thought that her father had forgiven her before she was willing to see her. Her eyes were a little sour. No matter how proud and vicious she was, she was actually just a girl in her early twenties. She also had a relationship with Zhenbei Hou. Muzhiqing, although this feeling has long since worn off, she does not dare to really fall out with her father. She is a married daughter and wants to establish a foothold in the palace, so she naturally needs her father to support her.

Unexpectedly, after she came in, his first sentence was, "Zhong's accident, but you moved?"

Zhong Li also suspected Gu Zhiya, but couldn't find anything.

Hearing this, Gu Zhiya's hands trembled a little when she was so angry. She never expected that her father would be so suspicious of her. What good would killing the Zhong family do to her?

She endured and endured, tears fell first, and for the first time felt wronged, "It's not me, now, I don't need to hide it from you, I was obsessed with Cheng'er, it was all for Lin'er and Zhongli. , it is forced, I have no reason to be cruel to Zhong."

After listening to the Marquis of Zhenbei, he said after a long while, "You can go, Zhong Li is willing to spare you, she is kind-hearted, and I hope you can do it yourself in the future."

Gu Zhiya kowtowed to him three times with tears in her eyes. After she went out, her expression turned cold. She left Zhenbei Hou's mansion step by step. Still proudly straightening his back.

When she got into the carriage, her back was straight, and she bent slightly, leaning against the window, the maid said, "Miss, do you want to go to Zhuangzi to see the eldest young master?"

Naturally, it is to be seen. The next time she returns to Beijing, she will not know the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. Not only does she need to visit her younger brother, but she also has to explain to her confidants to do something.

Gu Zhiya was naturally unwilling to leave like this, letting Mrs. Fang know that Zhong Li had a fortune, but it was just the first step, she wanted Zhong Li to spit out the silver little by little.

On Zhuangzi, there were two servants, both of whom belonged to her. She was most at ease with them, so she let them stay by Gu Lin's side. It was just right for them to handle this matter.

On the day the emperor went to the Temple of Heaven to worship, Pei Xing entered the palace before dawn. The sacrifice was a major event. Some time ago, the Temple of Heaven was repaired. The sacrifices were also prepared a few days ago. Pay attention, the rules are strict, and everything can't be sloppy. When this day came, even Pei Xing cheered up.

The emperor changed into the sacrificial clothes according to the auspicious time. The sacrificial clothes were embroidered with twelve patterns such as the sun, moon, stars and mountains. Six kinds of patterns were embroidered on the clothes, which are called "Shangliu" chapters, and six kinds of clothes were embroidered, which were called "Lower six chapters". ”, the patterns are extremely beautiful, and each pattern is full of auspicious meanings.

Not only does the emperor need to wear sacrificial clothes, but officials such as Pei Xing also need to wear mian clothes. The emperor needs to be the first to go to the middle platform to worship, and everything must be done carelessly. Neat.

Zhong Li still stayed in the mansion that day. She had already taught Qiuyue and Xia He how to make two antidote, so she sent them to teach the maids. She was relieved, just watched for a while, and then went back to read the ledger.

Cheng'er has been happy every day for the past few days, but Zhong Li didn't hold him back and let him swim around the mansion. Cheng'er's favorite thing was to go to the creek to catch fish. Let the maid make them a small net bag, and the three of them will earnestly net fish by the creek.

Xiaoxiang has the quickest hands and feet, and she was really caught by her, but Cheng'er and Koizumi were envious, so they chased after her and asked her to teach her the secret.

The smile on Xiaoxiang's face was more than before.

Seeing that they had completely forgotten about their homework, Zhong Li set up a rule for them to study for two hours a day, one hour to practice calligraphy and memorize ancient poems, and another hour to listen to the Master's lectures.

In the past, Zhong Li taught her children by herself, but now that she has two more children, she is inevitably overwhelmed, so she simply hired a master for them. This master is a fifty-year-old man who once worked in the Hanlin Academy. Now that I am older, I retired. Because I couldn't take time, when I learned that Zhong Li was going to recruit a master, I went to visit him. Naturally, it was not only him who came to recruit. Zhong Li saw that he had a good temper and was very patient. , chose him.

He is immortal, and when he teaches, he will teach them according to their aptitude, teach them the principles of life, and talk about local customs. Cheng'er quite likes him.

Time passed slowly. During this period of time, Zhong Li was basically looking at the ledger, and she gradually became familiar with these thirty shops. On this day, she even went to the inn to take a look. The construction of the inn was already on its way.At the end, wait until the Dragon Boat Festival, it should be able to open.

Qiuyue was also very excited and said with a smile: "After the inn opens, the master will get another income."
