CHAPTER XXIV
Although Gu Xinran's attitude towards Rong Fei had already been strange, she was still a little nervous when she heard that she was involved with Rong Cheng this time, and the whole person sat up straight unconsciously, almost forgetting to breathe, for fear of hearing something bad about herself from Rong Cheng's mouth.
However, Rong Cheng just glanced at Rong Fei lightly, and did not express any opinions, Gu Xinran didn't know what kind of mood he was in, a little disappointed, a little happy, and a little lost.
It was Rong Yi who actually helped Gu Xinran speak very rarely, "What do you buy and sell, the sister-in-law was set by the grandfather, it is our sister-in-law, Xiaofei, don't say these words again in the future, so that the grandfather should be scolded again when he hears it." ”
Rong Fei snorted coldly unconvinced, and wanted to say a few more words, but saw Rong Yi look at her with some seriousness, so she had to pout and swallow her words back.
Rong Zhentian said: "Wait a few years, Xin Ran will grow up a little more, and Xiao Ze's body will be almost better, let them go through the formalities, speaking of which, Xin Ran is a year younger than Xiao Fei, she is not familiar with it when she first came, and many things still depend on Xiao Fei's help, right, Xiao Fei?"
Rong Fei opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but thinking that Rong Yi had warned her not to be too unkind to Gu Xinran before going out, she had to reluctantly nod her head and said, "Uncle is right." ”
However, Rong Zhentian's words reminded Gu Xinran, she is only eighteen years old, Rong Ze looks like this, the two of them are destined to be a nominal husband and wife in the past two years, and in two years, no one knows what will become, maybe Rong Ze will be in good health and dislike her again, and the Rong family will simply not want her? Then she can regain her freedom and do whatever she wants.
Lin Xueyao saw Rong Fei's reluctant look, and said with a smile: "Xiaofei is still young, and she is still ignorant of many things, so it is better for me to come to the house often when I have time, not only to see my cousin, but also to be a companion with Xiaofei and my cousin-in-law." ”
When Rong Zhentian heard this, he said happily: "That's great, Xue Yao is really sensible, if she is lucky enough to marry home in the future, she will be blessed." ”
Lin Xueyao blushed and said, "What did my uncle say, people don't want to marry so early, and if they want to marry, they must marry the person they like." After speaking, he glanced at Rong Cheng.
Rong Yi secretly smiled in his heart when he saw it, the autumn waves in the eyes of the eldest lady of the Lin family were about to turn into entities and fly to Rong Cheng, first Lin Mei, and now Lin Xueyao, this woman of the Lin family, seems to like the big house of the Rong family very much, one by two like bees.
Lin Mei was a little unhappy, she left the banquet early last time, so she didn't see Lin Xueyao following Rong Cheng later, but now when she saw it, she was a little dissatisfied.
The heirs of the Lin family have always been thin, her parents have nothing but her, and the rest are relatives, and Lin Xueyao's father was inherited from her cousin's family, in fact, her cousin, who grew up in the Lin family's family since she was a child, and Lin Xueyao was raised as the real granddaughter of the Lin family since she was a child.
Lin Mei also loves her very much, seeing her is like seeing her former self, but looking at Lin Xueyao's appearance, it seems that she has moved her heart to Rong Cheng, which Lin Mei absolutely cannot allow, it seems that she must find a time to talk to Lin Xueyao.
After everyone talked for a while, they saw the old man walking downstairs with the support of Sister-in-law Luo, everyone except Rong Ze stood up, Lin Xueyao walked to the other side of the old man with a smile, and naturally coquettishly talked to the old man: "Grandpa, Xue Yao came over to eat tonight." ”
The old man likes this girl very much, her family background is illustrious and well-upbringed, she is a role model for his granddaughter-in-law in his heart, and he smiled happily when he saw her, "Okay, eat more tonight, tell the kitchen what you want to eat, let the chef cook it for you, don't see it, you know?"
Lin Xueyao said: "I listened to my grandfather, but Xue Yao didn't dare to eat more, in case she became fat, she wouldn't be able to marry in the future." ”
The old man patted her hand and said, "What nonsense? Such a beautiful girl, how can anyone not like it, eat it boldly and boldly, you can't marry your grandfather to call the shots." ”
Lin Xueyao showed a satisfied smile and said, "Yes, I listen to what grandpa says, I must eat more tonight." ”
The old man nodded vigorously and said yes, and he could see that he was very happy.
Gu Xinran looked at Lin Xueyao with some envy, after arriving at the Rong family, she felt the gap between herself and the people around her all the time.
Even if it is a very ordinary servant of the Rong family, it seems that he is more noble than ordinary people, not to mention these masters who live in the Rong family.
It was also the first time she realized that there could be such a big difference between people, whether it was what they ate, wore or used, they all had a sense of luxury that she had never seen before, they were like living in another world, and she accidentally broke into this world, and there was an indelible sense of incompatibility.
When she saw Lin Xueyao, Rong Fei, and even that Gu Lan, she once again clearly realized the gap between herself and them.
When Gu Xinran was five or six years old, he often took an old sack and rummaged through the garbage cans near the village hungry, picking up some waste products that others didn't want and could be sold for money.
Her adoptive mother is not in good health and can't do heavy work, so she can only take on some time-consuming and laborious piecework to earn some money, she has been sensible since she was a child, and knows that many things in the trash can can be sold for money, so she often goes to pick them up, and sometimes she is really hungry, and she will find something that looks good to eat.
There were always some stray dogs walking around the garbage can, and she felt that she was similar to these dogs, and at first she was so scared by those dogs that she couldn't get up from sitting on the ground.
The old people in the village sometimes see her pitiful, and will ask her to come to their own house to drink some water and eat some snacks, she never dares to eat more, and she has been well-behaved since she was a child, and she thanked others when she ate, and those old people often touched her head and said that she had a hard life, and she suffered at a young age, and said that the poor raised sons and rich daughters, and the girls were used to hurt.
She couldn't understand these words when she was a child, but now that she thinks about it, the so-called wealth is probably like Lin Xueyao, who grew up in the palm of her hand since she was a child, and what she saw from childhood to adulthood was the best side of the world, without worrying about hunger, poverty, violence and all other discordant factors, carefree until she grew up.
It's a pity that Gu Xinran hasn't read much since she was a child, otherwise she would know what it means to "Zhumen wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road", this society has always been distinct, and people like the Rong family, who have been in the upper class for hundreds of years, can always get the best and most convenient resources and enjoy the best material life.
Everything they enjoy now is taken for granted in their eyes, which is why they look down on Gu Xinran, which is the instinctive contempt and disgust of one class for another.
Gu Xinran remembered what Rong Cheng had said to her at the beginning: never expect the kindness of others to keep you alive, especially the people here, the only kindness they have is reserved for people like them, not you.
Although she didn't really expect any help from the people here.
But once again being clearly aware of the gap between herself and them, it still made her a little discouraged, and it was clear that during the day, she still had the determination to get ahead, but now she didn't dare to think about it.
Gu Xinran shook her head, forcing herself to expel these thoughts from her mind, she was already living a difficult life, and she couldn't let her thoughts wear out her already not very big determination, and finally set a goal, she didn't want to be snuffed out by herself before she took action.
After the old man took a seat, he deliberately glanced at Rong Ze, and was quite satisfied that he was willing to come down to eat, and then looked at Rong Cheng and Lin Xueyao sitting together, very compatible, in a good mood, and said: "Let's move the chopsticks." "The crowd just started to do it.
Of course, Gu Xinran didn't have the life to move chopsticks with them, she had to feed Rong Ze before she could eat, but Rong Ze had not eaten much since the accident, and his internal organs were also damaged to a certain extent due to the car accident, so he basically ate liquid food during this time, probably tired of eating, and every time he ate, he didn't have a good face, and he lost his temper at every turn.
Now Gu Xinran only dared to sandwich some soft food for him, and Rong Ze was very unhappy to see it, you must know that before, not only did he eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, but they were all carefully cooked by the chef, and he had always had no meat and no joy, and he could only eat those light soups and water for several months in a row, so he didn't want to be too tormented.
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this meal was unpleasant, and her face was getting worse and worse, Gu Xinran was shocked when she watched it on the side, and couldn't help but start thinking carefully about what she did wrong, why did Rong Ze look like he was going to eat people?
Rong Ze didn't want to eat after a few bites, the expression on his face was a little tired, he took the mask and put it back on, completely ignoring Gu Xinran's action of still putting vegetables in his bowl, Gu Xinran was a little embarrassed, and he didn't know whether to continue to clip it for a while, or just forget about Gu eating by himself?
The old man glanced at Rong Ze, a little worried, and asked, "Is Xiao Ze still uncomfortable?" It's been so long, why is your appetite still bad?"
Rong Ze said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "Grandpa, I'm fine." ”
The old man said: "Xiao Ze, listen to grandpa's words, let's go to Europe and get a good treatment of our legs, right? Dr. Wang also said before, it's not completely hopeless, as long as you are willing to agree, Dr. Wang will contact the hospital in Europe, let's find the best doctor, and we will definitely be able to cure it." ”
From the day Rong Ze was discharged from the hospital and returned to Rong's house, the old man and Lin Mei never stopped the idea of letting Rong Ze continue to receive rehabilitation, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, they were unwilling to give up, but Rong Ze was very resistant to the treatment, he didn't want to pin his hope on the 1 in 10,000 success rate, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear another disappointment and blow.
