Chapter 68: Centrifugation (4)

That night, Shen Qinglan stayed in Rongde Hall and spoke carefully with Shen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's not that exaggerated to say that it's careful.

Shen has always treated her very well, and he is willing to listen to her talk about her life in Xijing. Every time she just said something pitiful, Shen would sigh with a sigh on her face, and then she would quietly give her the good things in her private room.

When Shen Qinglan first arrived at the Hou Mansion, she was a little trembling, and she didn't know why the Shen family was so good to her.

Until now, she hadn't figured out whyβ€”it didn't matter if she hadn't.

Anyway, she just needs to know that the Shen family is her backer.

She wants to stay in the Dingbei Hou Mansion, she wants to live a life of fine clothes and food, she wants to have a rich dowry, and she wants to have a good family affair in the future......

All of this depends on the Shen family.

Therefore, she must coax the Shen family well.

……

On the same night, the east wing of the Ilyu-in Temple was brightly lit.

Gu Jinyan had red eyes, and said aggrieved and sad about being scolded: "...... My sister is right, since Cousin Qinglan came, her mother has changed. The whole heart was biased towards Cousin Qinglan. ”

"In the past, my mother loved me the most, and I was reluctant to say anything serious. Today, I just proposed that Cousin Qinglan move out of the house, and she was furious and scolded me. ”

Speaking of this, Gu Jinyan, who had been held in the palm of his hand by the Shen family since he was a child, felt more and more aggrieved. Tears rolled in his eyes.

Gu Wanning's eyes were also slightly red, and he barely squeezed out a smile to soothe: "Ah Yan, don't be angry with your mother." Cousin Shen is her maiden niece, who came thousands of miles to defect, and her mother should love her more. ”

Gu Jinyan said angrily: "Is my niece more important than our two sisters and brothers?"

Gu Wanning smiled bitterly: "Ah Yan, I'll tell you the truth, don't you don't like to listen." ”

"Since Cousin Shen came, my mother still has my daughter in her eyes. I don't know how much of the private room in my hand has been given to Cousin Shen, so that's it. When something happens, I only blame me and protect Cousin Shen. ”

"The biological daughter is not as good as a cousin of the Shen family. ”

"And you, in the past, my mother loved you the most. But now, in my mother's heart, Cousin Shen is a few points more important than you. Come to think of it, isn't it?"

Isn't that so?!

The more Gu Jinyan thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he unconsciously clenched his fists: "Damn!"

Why is this happening?!

What's so good about Shen Qinglan?

often pretending to be pitiful and sympathetic with teary eyes, and looking aggrieved at every turn. looks gentle and coquettish, but in fact it is scheming.

In the past, Gu Jinyan still felt that Shen Qinglan was quite pitiful, and she was also very gentle to her. Now once the disgust is born, and then recalling Shen Qinglan's usual behavior, it will be eleven unpleasant.

Gu Wanning saw the changes in Gu Jinyan's expression, and sighed deliberately: "No matter what, the two of us must not disobey our mother, otherwise it will be unfilial." ”

The word filial piety is heavier than Mount Tai.

Gu Jinyan has studied the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, and the orthodox education he received from Confucianism attaches the most importance to filial piety, and he also listens to Shen's words the most on weekdays. However, today's facts are too outrageous.

Gu Jinyan's little face turned red, and he only held back a few words after a while: "Mother insists on keeping Cousin Shen to live in the house, and we can't help it." However, from tomorrow onwards, I will never pay attention to her again. ”

"No, you can't. Gu Wanning frowned: "It's because I refuse to ignore Cousin Shen that my mother will be angry with me." If you ignore Cousin Shen, my mother will be even more angry. ”

"Let her be angry!" Gu Jinyan replied firmly: "If she blames me for this, I won't even go to Rongdetang in the future." ”

Gu Wanning replied without thinking: "How can this work." My mother never liked me, so it didn't matter if I went or not. If you don't go to Rongdetang, how sad and sad your mother will be. ”

"Ah Yan, listen to me, don't compete with your mother. Tomorrow, I will go to Rongdetang as usual to say goodbye to my mother. ”

Gu Jinyan looked up at Gu Guanning, who looked anxious, and was greatly moved in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sister, I used to think that you were too stubborn, and you often contradicted your mother. I didn't expect you to be so filial and considerate to your mother. ”

After a pause, he added, "However, I won't go." ”

"If my mother doesn't send Cousin Shen away for a day, I won't go to Rongdetang for a day. I won't pay attention to Cousin Shen!"

Gu Jinyan, who has always had a soft temperament, looked resolute at this time.

A hint of happiness flashed in Gu Wanning's eyes, but he said, "Think about how well your mother treated you in the past." You have a quarrel with your mother for the sake of a cousin Shen, won't your mother be sad?"

As he spoke, his eyes quietly turned red, and his voice became low: "Moreover, my mother will definitely think that I instigated you to have trouble with her." I'm afraid it's even more displeasing to me. ”

Seeing the stubborn and proud Gu Guanning so depressed, Gu Jinyan's nose was sour, and his eyes were red: "Sister, I really don't know what my mother thinks." Obviously we are her biological children, how can she treat us like this for an outsider?"

Gu Wanning wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief and said in a low voice: "Ah Yan, our sister and brother are here to say some confidant words." No one should know about it. ”

"Actually, I also think it's a bit strange. ”

"My mother and my mother's family are not close relatives. Over the years, the number of visits by the eldest uncle and the second uncle has only been a handful, and there are very few correspondences on weekdays. Our cousins have never been to Beijing. ”

"This fifth uncle is just my mother's cousin, how can my relationship be so good?"

"The mother didn't know how much effort she put into accommodating their father and daughter. also specially bought a house for the fifth uncle, and he was so good to Cousin Shen. Is there something we don't know about it?"

Oh, yes!

Shen Qian is just Shen's cousin, why is Shen so good to their father and daughter?

With all kinds of abnormalities, Gu Jinyan didn't pay much attention to it in the past. At this time, when I thought about it, I suddenly felt that everything was unusual.

What's the secret?

Gu Wanning didn't speak, and Gu Jinyan was also immersed in his own thoughts.

I don't know how long it took for Gu Guanning to open his mouth to break the silence: "I'm just suspicious, but I can't think of a clue." You are in front of your mother, don't say anything. ”

Gu Jinyan nodded solemnly: "Sister, don't worry, I know the severity, and I will never mention half a word to anyone." ”

However, this thing is really strange!

Although my sister is smart and capable, she is a boudoir girl after all. It would be more appropriate for him to investigate such matters secretly.

Gu Jinyan didn't say anything, but he secretly made up his mind in his heart. (To be continued.) )
