Chapter 322 I Won't Marry
The sun was shining brightly, pouring in through the window. The jewelry in the open box was shining brightly.
Gu Baozhu sat beside her, holding an embroidery frame in her hand, lowering her head slightly to embroider patterns. Her long eyelashes were thick and curled, and her fair and tender cheeks seemed to be able to squeeze out water under the sunlight.
Her black hair was scattered on her back. Gu's mother combed her hair with a wooden comb in her hand, tied it into two pigtails, and tied a bow with a green hairband with pearls on both ends.
Gu's mother straightened her head, looked around, and slightly adjusted the crooked bow: "Your sister-in-law is good at tying knots, I can't learn."
Gu Baozhu stared at herself in the bronze mirror. She had bright eyes, a small nose, cherry red lips, and two pigtails. She put down the embroidery frame, raised her hand to pinch her soft cheeks, and felt that her face was as round as a big white and fat bun.
Her fingers stroked the round pearls that fell down, and she said with curved eyebrows: "Mother, no matter how well you tie it, the knot will loosen." She tilted her head, and the bow was reflected in the mirror. Her thumb pinched the tip of her little finger: "It's very beautiful, but it's a little worse than my sister-in-law's."
Mother Gu couldn't help laughing, and took a look at the embroidered red flowers, "Take a break first, otherwise it will hurt your eyes."
"My second brother wrote to me, and when his affairs are settled, he will take me to the palace to accompany him to study. I may not have time to make sachets. This is what I made for my sister-in-law. I haven't made one for my brother yet."
One for each person, Gu Baozhu did not favor one over the other.
"Didn't Jingyun ask the Queen to hire an embroiderer to do needlework for you? While learning, you can do better for your brother and sister-in-law." Mother Gu poured cold water on Gu Baozhu: "You embroidered so ugly, they will hide it in the bottom of the box even if they accept it."
Gu Baozhu's fiery little heart suddenly turned cold.
This is my own mother.
Then she felt that her mother was right.
She picked up the embroidery frame again: "Mom, I'll practice again. When I learn from the master, my needlework is very bad, which will embarrass my second brother."
Gu's mother, who wanted her to rest: "..."
She took the embroidery frame and put it on the dressing table, and pulled Gu Baozhu up, "We haven't taken a good look at this new house yet. Let's go around and see if there is anything to repair and add."
Gu Baozhu frowned. In the past year, she had experienced all the ups and downs.
When she was sensible, she dreamed of living in a big house.
After she really moved in, she missed the life in Xinghua Village, where the family was neat and tidy and carefree.
She didn't feel a sense of belonging in such a solemn and solemn house with carved beams and painted rafters. It was like a temporary place to stay.
The whole person was listless and lost his vitality: "Mom, I don't want to move."
Mother Gu sighed: "Mom will make you dessert?"
Gu Baozhu shook her head and asked gloomily: "Mom, do you think that my elder brother and sister-in-law will also leave us?"
"No." Mother Gu touched her head: "You are nine years old. In a few years, you will get married. In the future, you will get married and have your own family."
"Everyone has important people to accompany them at every stage. It is normal to separate. Those feelings still exist, but they just don't live together. When you miss us, you can find us when you look back."
Gu Baozhu seemed to understand and hugged her mother's arm and said coquettishly: "I won't get married."
Unless that person is as good as my elder brother.
Mother Gu smiled and didn't take her childish words seriously.
"Madam! Madam! It's not good!" The medicine boy in the clinic ran over breathlessly, "Someone is making trouble in the clinic, go and see!"
