The puppets placed in Chen Zhao's house have been aged for a long time, and the fabrics have become too old to look good.
The style is different from other puppets.
When she saw the doll, she was stunned for a moment, and then thought that she was also watching other little girls holding the doll, and then told Mrs. Qin that she wanted it.
At that time, Mrs. Qin treated her with a motherly heart, and she would be satisfied with anyone who could satisfy her.
Let alone a puppet.
At that time, Mrs. Qin was already ill, but she still sewed the doll for her stitch by stitch.
Perhaps noticing the surprise in Gu Qingyuan's eyes, Chen Zhao said a little embarrassedly,
"I made my sister laugh. That stuffed doll means a lot to me, so no matter how shabby it is, I won't let anyone throw it away."
The weather was getting hotter. Gu Qingyuan shook her fan and asked curiously,
"When did you get this puppet sister?"
"It's been there since I can remember." Chen Zhao took over the conversation calmly and stared at the puppet with a smile, "Fortunately for this puppet, when Jing Heng fell into the water, it didn't cause a bigger leak."
She had heard from him last time that Pei Jinting fell into the water when he was a child. She also knew that Chen Zhao sacrificed his life to save him, but she didn't expect that it was also related to this puppet.
Weird Road Chen Zhao offered the puppets like jewels and jewels.
Pei Jinting gave up his position to Gu Qingyuan, folded his arms and leaned against the cabinet.
She must have seen the scene of him shaking hands with Chen Zhao just now, despite her initial look of surprise.
At this moment, everyone seemed calm.
She didn't seem to care, nor did she feel disappointed about being hit.
Pei Jinting looked deeply at Gu Qingyuan, his Adam's apple was slightly slippery, and he gently rubbed his fingertips a few times.
He straightened up, walked to Gu Qingyuan, and stopped.
Gu Qingyuan didn't notice him coming over, but Chen Zhao took Gu Qingyuan's hand.
"Ayuan, you are younger than me, and you are like my sister. If you had time in the past, you would come and talk to me more often. The days of recuperation are really boring..."
She pursed her lips, and a smile appeared on her pale face.
Gu Qingyuan responded with a smile, "It just so happens that I don't know anything. I hope my sister can teach me."
"Ha." Pei Jinting moved his thin lips, his eyebrows were covered with a layer of frost, and he glanced sideways at Gu Qingyuan.
"You haven't gone to your mother's place to pay her respects today, have you?" he said abruptly.
Only then did Gu Qingyuan notice that someone was coming next to her. She was stunned for a moment and looked at each other. She seemed to understand what Pei Jinting meant.
He was driving her away because he thought she had come at the wrong time and would hinder his relationship with Chen Zhao.
She stood up quickly and said, "Sister, please take good care of your health. I will come see you someday."
Pei Jinting should be satisfied with how knowledgeable she is.
Hearing Gu Qingyuan's words, Chen Zhaorou nodded weakly and signaled the maid to send Gu Qingyuan out.
Pei Jinting stood beside him, his dark eyes staring unblinkingly at Gu Qingyuan leaving him.
Bring up a gust of wind.
"Jing Heng. I regret it." Chen Zhao's face was pale, and tears flowed down unknowingly.
Pei Jinting's handsome face showed no trace of fluctuation. He came back to his senses and cast his eyes on Chen Zhao.
"What do you regret?"
"I regret it. I should have told you my feelings for you earlier when we discussed the marriage."
"I regret that I got married before I could communicate with you. The person in my heart has always been you, Jing Heng."
When Pei Jinting heard this, he pursed his lower lip and said lightly, "It's too late."
He crossed his arms and frowned slightly.
Chen Zhao lost his mind and murmured, "Why? Is it because I'm married? Do you dislike me for being a woman?"
"But... didn't you just snatch Gu Qingyuan back when she was getting married?"
"Also, that little household's bride..."
Pei Jinting stared at her silently, recalling Chen Zhao when he was young.
She was born in a bad family, her family was in decline, and she was dependent on others. Although she was helped to save her life, she was not a serious daughter of the Pei family.
As a result, she developed a habit of pleasing everyone, even though she was like the flower in the corner, growing upward with willpower.
But it is inevitably accompanied by sadness.
Because of his love to save her at the risk of his life, he was very protective of her.
Everyone thought that he would marry her, but not long after, she proposed to marry someone else.
What would happen to Gu Qingyuan if she encountered such a thing?
The Gu family would only treat her worse than the Pei family treated Chen Zhao.
She never seems to complain.
There was no big road to take, so she had to find one.
After Gu Qingyuan came out of Chen Zhao's courtyard, the warm wind made her eyebrows relax.
At this time, the steward of the outer courtyard came to see her.
"Third Young Madam, the aunt from Concubine Lu's palace in the palace has come, saying that the empress has invited her to come into the palace for a talk."
Gu Qingyuan was surprised when she heard this.
The last time Pei Jinting took her to the palace to meet her, she did not see Concubine Lu in the Queen's Fengyi Palace.
After that, there was no summons.
She just thought that Concubine Lu wanted to avoid suspicion.
After all, no one knows that the Queen and Concubine Lu have never even met each other.
As the daughter-in-law of the Pei family, no matter what, she is regarded as a member of the prince's line.
Since Concubine Lu has announced her summons, she must go to the palace.
Gu Qingyuan frowned slightly and sent someone to report to Mrs. Chengen. She originally wanted to send someone to talk to Pei Jinting again.
Thinking that he was accompanying Chen Zhao, he pressed the button, left a message, and followed the visitor to the palace.
Concubine Lu and Concubine Qin are cousins. Concubine Lu received much help from Concubine Qin at first. After Concubine Qin passed away, she often took Gu Qingyuan into the palace.
It's a way of supporting yourself.
If she didn't come to the palace from time to time, Gu Qingyuan's life in the Gu family would only be even more difficult.
If the Queen is the radiant pearl of the deep sea, graceful and luxurious, then Concubine Lu is the beauty by the river with white dew turning into frost, her beauty is refreshing.
Otherwise, the emperor's eldest son would not have been born earlier than the queen.
The invitation to be crowned prince had been on the emperor's agenda for more than ten days.
Later, it was Concubine Lu who cried and begged in Chongming Palace to let the emperor make the queen's son the prince.
Known as virtuous throughout the world.
After Concubine Lu saw Gu Qingyuan, she smiled brightly and said to Gu Qingyuan,
"No matter what happens in the future. Now that you have entered the Pei family, you have a family. From now on, you will be at ease."
"Don't think about the past anymore, everything will be fine in the future."
Gu Qingyuan raised her eyes and showed a sincere smile,
"That's what the Queen said."
Concubine Lu sighed, "It's my fault that I couldn't take care of you on your mother's behalf."
"What was originally a good marriage suddenly disappeared. If more people had been assigned to take care of you, nothing like that would have happened."
Gu Qingyuan naturally understood what Concubine Lu meant.
In the past, Concubine Lu had no intention of giving gifts to her, but she blocked them all.
Although she had taken advantage of Concubine Lu's influence to live a better life in the Gu family, she did not want to be controlled by others.
She was even more afraid of being used by Concubine Lu to win over the courtiers for the eldest prince.
This time, Concubine Lu mentioned it again.
Gu Qingyuan pressed her fingertips slightly, thinking about how to refuse.
Concubine Lu said again casually,
"Ayuan, please tell me the truth, did you know about Pei Jinting's marriage abduction in advance or did you not know about it?"
