Xu Dong was going to go to the field for half a month, and he was busy with some things, taking into account Gu Wanyan's current situation, as a close friend, he was a little worried. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Before leaving Dongcheng, Xu Dong asked Gu Wanyan to go to Yunji Hall to sit down.

It happened that Mrs. went to the Song Mansion early this morning to have tea with Mrs. Song, and the master went to the factory in person. Gu Wanyan didn't go to the store, and went to Yunjitang by herself after lunch.

Xu Dong is twenty-six this year, Gu Wanyan is only seventeen, to say that these two people have an age difference of eight years, but they seem to be friends of the same age, and they have been confidants of each other for four years.

When Gu Wanyan stepped into Xu Dong's study, Xu Dong was fiddling with a game of chess.

Seeing Gu Wanyan coming, he didn't greet her as before, but glanced at her and beckoned to her lightly and said, "Come here, take a look at this game of chess." ”

Gu Wanyan tilted her head and wondered, then walked over and sat opposite Xu Dong, looking down at the chessboard carefully.

Kuroko clearly had the upper hand. Looking at it, even people who don't know much about chess can understand three points, and Kuroko almost killed Baizi without leaving a piece of armor.

She raised her eyes and looked at Xu Dong, and pouted: "This sunspot is about to win, what do you want me to see?"

The corners of Xu Dong's mouth rose and he smiled: "Do you really think so?"

Gu Wanyan was confused and nodded.

Xu Dong shook his head and pointed to the chessboard: "This game of chess has a secret mystery. You see, on the surface, Baizi has been driven to a dead end, but I have set up a place in the layout process, and Baizi can turn defeat into victory as long as he takes the right step. ”

Gu Wanyan listened, revealing an expression of disbelief, she looked at Xu Dong suspiciously, and lowered her head to ponder the chessboard for a long time, but she still didn't come up with a reason for a long time.

Xu Dong's bright eyes looked at Gu Wanyan, and then silently stretched out his slender index finger and middle finger and took a step down.

What Xu Dong said was true, in just one step, a large piece of sunspot was eaten. Gu Wanyan opened her mouth slightly, looking at Bai Zi, who had reversed the situation, her expression gradually changed from surprise to thoughtfulness.

Xu Dong knew that Gu Wanyan had already understood the truth he wanted to tell her, so he carelessly put all the chess pieces back into the chess box.

Yes, Gu Wanyan understands Xu Dong's good intentions.

What he wanted to tell her was that no matter how difficult your situation is, don't be discouraged, maybe there is a way to be the one who wins.

After putting away the chess, Xu Dong stroked his palm and asked Gu Wanyan with a smile: "How are these days?"

Gu Wanyan supported her head with her hands: "I'm trying to put all my energy into the things I need to be busy with...... Gu Ran, I believe that after a while, Xingxing's mind will be at peace. ”

Also, which young master is not a third wife and four concubines, Gu Ran will marry a few more rooms sooner or later, but Gu Wanyan didn't expect it to be so early, and the newlywed has not been married for a month.

Xu Dong knew Gu Wanyan better, he seemed to see through her gradually indifferent heart, on the one hand, he was relieved, and on the other hand, he felt sorry for her. Such a clever girl, but she was wronged in the matter of her destiny. But everything was a foregone conclusion, and after thinking about it, he could only try his best to appease Gu Wanyan's anxious heart and let her accept the reality calmly.

"Hmm......" Xu Dong nodded, "You are a girl's family, the old lady of the Gu family can rest assured that the Gu family's accounts will be handed over to you to assist in taking care of, it seems that your position in the Gu family's heart is quite stable, and your ability is recognized." ”

Of course, Gu Wanyan knew this, she smiled at Xu Dongming, and then seemed to suddenly think of something, and the whole person sat up straight and exclaimed-

"Oops!"

Xu Dong frowned: "What's wrong?"

Speaking of the accounts, Gu Wanyan suddenly remembered that she had spent a morning sorting out the stack of densely written words and charts that changed with the seasons about the profitability of various gold, silver and jewelry, and she didn't know where she had put it casually.

"What's wrong?" Xu Dong saw that Gu Wanyan was silent, and became more and more strange in his heart, urging him to ask.

She remembered!

As soon as she returned to the house that day, Mrs. was waiting for her in the front hall, and then she put the stack of papers on the table in the front hall when she helped Mrs. to go to the East Garden, and then somehow forgot about it, so naturally she didn't discuss this issue with Gu Yan.

She frowned, got up hurriedly, and only explained a few words to Xu Dong: "I remember that I have a very urgent matter, you will go out tomorrow and have a safe journey, I will stay soon, contact me when I come back-"

As soon as the words fell, she trotted out of Xu Dong's study with the corner of her skirt, leaving Xu Dong confused.

Gu Wanyan returned to Gu's mansion, and didn't see the things she had left on the low table in the front hall that day, so she trotted all the way with the corner of her skirt and wanted to ask Aunt Xue if they had seen it, and happened to bump into Gu Yan in the corridor.

"Wanyan-?What are you doing in such a hurry?" Gu Yan held Gu Wanyan, looked at her and gasped slightly, and asked.

"I-" Gu Wanyan turned her eyes and saw Gu Yan holding some artwork in his hand, which seemed to be his newly designed earring necklace style, so she left what she wanted to say behind, "This is your new painting?"

Gu Yan listened, opened the chatterbox, and raised the artwork in his hand with a smile: "Yes." The day before yesterday, Fengxian's sister-in-law told me that her eldest brother showed her some comparisons of last year's monthly accounts, and she found that different styles of jewelry sold well in different seasons. As soon as she said this, I took it to heart, and my eldest brother pondered it together with the account books of each month, and found that this was really the case--no, the gold and silver bracelets, anklets and pendants sold very well in the spring, and I drew some new sketches yesterday, and now I am about to take them to the factory-"

Maybe Gu Yan was excited, but when he said this, he realized that it was Gu Wanyan standing in front of him. Seeing that Gu Wanyan's face suddenly became very bad, he realized that he was a little open-mouthed ...... said the wrong thing.

Gu Yan has been closest to Gu Wanyan since she was a child, and she has always helped her speak, and she has always been towards her.

"Wanyan, are you ...... okay?"

That's right, Gu Wanyan's face was very bad, but it wasn't because she was jealous that Liu Fengxian had been a capable person in front of Gu Yan and invited credit.

How did the things she worked so hard to write down fall into Liu Fengxian's hands? This is good, she was originally bent on remembering the things she wanted to discuss with Gu Yan, and she was robbed by others in advance.

Even if Gu Wanyan argues with Gu Yan now, there is no evidence, who will believe it? It seems that she is too small-minded to tolerate others.

She seemed to be dumb and could only eat Coptis chinensis, tilted her head and said, "It's okay, it's just a little uncomfortable, you can go quickly, don't worry about me." ”

Gu Yan pursed his lips and didn't say anything, even though he knew Gu Wanyan and knew that she was an open-minded girl, but when he encountered this kind of thing......

So Gu Yan only persuaded her to go back to her room to rest, and then left.

Gu Wanyan stood alone in the corridor, smiling bitterly like self-deprecation, sour, and aggrieved.

At this time, I don't know where there was a soft and glutinous "sister", and before Gu Wanyan came back to her senses, Liu Fengxian had already walked towards her step by step.

"Sister, why are you here alone, and your face is still so bad?" Liu Fengxian pretended to be anxious and concerned on her face, but the phoenix eyes that were already picking on her face were picked proudly.

Gu Wanyan took a deep breath, looked at Liu Fengxian in front of her and asked word by word, "Did you take my things?"

Liu Fengxian immediately showed an innocent expression: "Sister, what are you talking about? What did I take from you? It's important to find something if it's lost, don't blame it indiscriminately-"

"You heard me talking to the third brother just now, right?"

When Liu Fengxian heard this, she no longer continued to perform hypocrisy, but instead raised her chin slightly, demonstrating in silence.

Everything is so clear and clear, Gu Wanyan's intellectual achievements were stolen, but she couldn't argue, Liu Fengxian was clearly deliberate. She couldn't just say that the idea was hers.

Liu Fengxian brushed the hair of her sideburns with her fingers, feeling proud, thinking that she had won a beautiful game.

She silently said arrogantly in her heart, Gu Wanyan, you are very angry, right, hurry up and scold me, hurry up and beat me, hurry up and take revenge on me - after a while, people will think that you are jealous of me, you are bullying others! Hmph, when you see how you come to the stage, even your old lady can't support you!

Gu Wanyan's anger pressed in her heart, and she was about to erupt, but she suddenly changed her face and smiled faintly: "You have a child of the Gu family now, I don't care about you." Which is right and wrong, everyone understands in their hearts that everything I do is nothing more than for the benefit of the Gu family, and now I just told Gu Yan about it through your mouth, the effect and result are the same, and I can't bear it. - Liu Fengxian, I don't care about you, you can do it yourself. ”

After speaking, Gu Wanyan didn't stop at Liu Fengxian for a moment, raised her steps and left.

Liu Fengxian was stunned in place, trembling with anger.

Gu Wanyan said to herself as she walked-take a deep breath, take a deep breath......

If a dog bites you, do you want to bite it back? What Gu Wanyan just said is indeed his true thoughts, as long as the effect of safeguarding the interests of the Gu family is achieved, it doesn't matter at all how it is achieved.

The days passed in a trance in peace for three months, and Xu Dong had not returned to Dongcheng.

During this period, Gu Mo was still the same, occasionally sent letters to his family, and once sent blessings to Gu Wanyan and Gu Ran by the way-after Mrs. relayed it to Gu Wanyan, she just smiled.

Gu Wanyan still did what she had to do, deliberately ignoring Gu Ran and Liu Fengxian. Gu Ran sometimes spent the night in Liu Fengxian's room, and sometimes spent the night with Gu Wanyan - it's just that when they spent the night with Gu Wanyan, they both slept in their clothes and made a show to their wife.

For a few months, her appearance was so calm that the people in the Gu Mansion thought that she had accepted Liu Fengxian's matter and no longer cared about anything.

In fact, she has already broken the jar in her heart.

-- I, Gu Wanyan, am a person who wants to take care of the overall situation, and I don't have to be so informal, what is the importance of children's affection?

Everything seemed to be uneventful, but in early July, something big happened.

Liu Fengxian miscarried.

The old man and lady were furious, and there was no one in the Gu Mansion who did not tremble.

The reason for the miscarriage is bizarre. It is said that Liu Fengxian was wandering around in Beiyuan, and when she went down the steps, a wild cat suddenly jumped under her feet, and she fell down the steps without being frightened, and it is said that the little maid who was following her at that time was immediately frightened.

Later, the doctor who was invited to check the pulse and came to the conclusion that your aunt had a miscarriage.

It must not be said that the old lady is angry.

Originally, this woman was left to protect this heir, but now that Liu Fengxian was so careless, Mrs. secretly wanted to drive this woman out immediately.

The old man has always admired Confucianism and paid attention to following a "benevolent" way, when the lady told him that he wanted to drive away Liu Fengxian, the old man objected after thinking about it for a while.

"Master, what are you letting her do at home?" Madame was puzzled, and she tried her best to argue, "Now that the children are gone, we don't blame her for being benevolent and righteous, do we want us to raise her for nothing?!"

The old man looked displeased: "As an elder, how can you be so vicious - it was her fault that Liu Fengxian did not keep the child, but at worst, she is a woman, she has a miscarriage, and her body is extremely weak, if we drive her out now, what will it look like? This child is caused by our Ran'er's affair - it's just that, this marriage must be avoided, as for this woman, let her raise her body in the house, and it will not be too late." ”

The master has always paid attention to the face of the Gu Mansion, and the Gu Mansion has always been the wind of benevolence and righteousness and the spirit of a king in the eyes of outsiders. Madame had actually expected this reaction from the old man.

The old man in the Gu Mansion had the final say, and the lady stopped talking.

Gu Wanyan's attitude towards this matter was very indifferent, and there was some surprise, but it was just a moment.

For some reason, she felt that it was reasonable and expected for this matter to develop like this.

She had guessed the truth of Liu Fengxian's pregnancy - since Liu Fengxian lived in the Gu Mansion, the same doctor had come to see her every time. According to Liu Fengxian, she has been diagnosing the fetus in the hands of this doctor, and if she changes the doctor, she will feel uneasy, and if she is uneasy, her mood will fluctuate, and if it fluctuates, it will affect the fetus in the womb.

So the lady agreed to use the doctor Liu Fengxian said.

But then she didn't bother to guess, what about the real pregnancy and fake pregnancy? She couldn't complain about others, even if Liu Fengxian's pregnancy this time was fake, a woman like her who had the means would always think of a way to entangle Gu Fu.

After thinking about it a few times, Gu Wanyan was also indifferent.

In the past three months, she has looked down on her feelings, and her talent in business has become more and more prominent, which once attracted the appreciation of the master.

Liu Fengxian can stay in Gu Mansion for a few more days. She washed her face with tears all day long, and it was difficult to get out of bed, giving people the feeling that because of her loss of this child and the depression of her mood, her body and bones had been greatly reduced.

Gu Ran was annoyed and distressed in his heart, and he was by Liu Fengxian's side every day.

In the past few months that Liu Fengxian has been in the Gu Mansion, she has won a lot of hearts by relying on her excellent ability to sing with a white face, and she has also learned a lot about the internal affairs of the Gu Mansion family from her subordinates.

What made her most interested was that Fifth Miss Gu Huan had been at odds with Gu Wanyan since she was a child, and until now, Gu Huan has also picked on Gu Wanyan's faults when she has the opportunity.

On this day, Liu Fengxian took Gu Ran away and asked his subordinates to find the fifth lady Gu Huan. Gu Huan is a small-minded girl, but her temper can also afford the word recklessness.

In the past few months, no matter how Liu Fengxian tried to curry favor with this eccentric fifth lady, she also disdained and disgusted Liu Fengxian - she was just a concubine who had not yet started, and the concubine was a tool used by men to pass on the lineage, to put it bluntly, she was not a slave, you were still a no-one, what kind of thing was it?

When Gu Huan heard that Liu Fengxian had sent someone to invite her, she was first puzzled in her heart, she thought that Liu Fengxian would not be able to talk about anything if she talked about it.

But thinking that these people in Tianfu were talking about how weak Liu Fengxian's body was, and how many tears she had every day, her heart was soft, and she reluctantly went.

Liu Fengxian broke away from all the subordinates, and sat alone in the room with a cup of tea waiting for the arrival of the fifth lady.

There were no tears on her face, only a wicked smile.
