(113) Disgusting does not change the guilt
84_84990ps: Happy Juneteenth, dear! To be a child who never grows up, to be an adult who is as happy as a child, to be a happy forever! Meow~~~
Gu Beichen's abnormality made Lin Mengyao feel more worried, and at this moment, Ming Xue came over.
"How's it going?" Gu Beichen's speech was very clear, as if he was not drunk.
Na Mingxue saluted and said, "Young master, she went to the firewood room." β
Firewood room, the place where Zhan Sihang is imprisoned!
She, is she Liu Agarwood?
Full of doubts in her heart, Lin Mengyao followed Gu Beichen to the firewood room.
On the way to the firewood house, there are few people, the guests have dispersed, and the people are cleaning in the courtyard, and few people come here. However, Lin Mengyao and the others were turning the bamboo forest not far from the firewood house, and they saw a familiar slender figure swaying on the path in front of the firewood house.
Lin Mengyao was very concerned and anxious about Zhan Sihang's matter, because it was related to her reputation. However, it was obvious that someone was more anxious than her, and the slender figure lingered at the door of the firewood room for a while, and after making sure that there was no one else, he pushed open the door of the firewood room and rushed in. In just a moment, by candlelight, Lin Mengyao saw that the person was Liu Shenxiang's maid, the Qiao'er who gave Lin Mengyao a look because of a peony.
The candlelight reflected Qiao'er's figure, and she was obviously loosening Zhan Sihang's ties - I think it was Liu Shenxiang who asked her to release Zhan Sihang!
Hmph, it's rare, this Liu Agarwood didn't have a hot head and ran over by himself.
"But do you want to go over now?" Lin Mengyao asked.
Gu Beichen stroked her hair, and her face was relaxed: "What's the hurry, the one that should appear hasn't appeared yet, you have to be a little patient!" β
"Is it ......?"
Lin Mengyao didn't continue, she expressed her skepticism. Since this Liu Agarwood asked Qiao'er to come over, how could he come over in person? Unexpectedly, Na Qiao'er quickly retreated, and when half a cup of tea was consumed, Liu Agarwood appeared-Obviously, Liu Agarwood had been hiding near the firewood house.
Seeing Liu Shenxiang enter, Lin Mengyao did not rush to urge Gu Beichen to go over. She's not that smart. But she could also think of the reason why Liu Agarwood appeared at this moment. robbed the daughter-in-law with the Gu family. It takes a lot of courage, and it is gold and silver that can be strengthened. People who are greedy for money are far from being satisfied, but I am afraid that at this moment, Zhan Sihang is thinking about blackmailing Liu Shenxiang more!
Really. Liu Shenxiang, a brainless person, actually yelled in the firewood room: "You want money and want to go crazy, right?" One thousand taels? β¦β¦ Then you just wait for the Gu Mansion to send you to the official mansion! β
The clear night was extremely quiet, and Zhan Sihang's unhurried voice came out: "Official? Has Miss Liu figured it out? When the time comes, I can't guarantee that. What will you say when that startling sound......"
"Don't think you're Chrysostom. You promise that what you say will be believed? Liu Shenxiang's voice was obviously a little afraid, but she was as arrogant as her, and there was still a burst of coercion and temptation between her words: "I advise you to be aware of the times, and quickly take the money and run for your life." Otherwise, I'll let my father accuse you of slander. When the time comes, the sin will be increased, and I don't think you will call the heavens and the earth spiritlessβ"
Liu Agarwood's voice reverberated in the night sky a few times. The arrogance and smugness completely concealed the initial fear. You can imagine her look at the moment, Lin Mengyao hated it in her heart - Liu Shenxiang was going for her life. How could she endure it?!
Lin Mengyao can't bear it, Gu Beichen can endure it?
What Gu Beichen did was thoughtful.
When Lin Mengyao secretly hated, Na Mingxue had already led the Gu Mansion, the Liu family, and Zhao Shicheng to the firewood house, obviously they all heard Liu Shenxiang's arrogant words, and their expressions were all bad.
Among them, the most embarrassing ones are the Liu couple, who are the ones who speak wildly and pour rancid water on the Gu Mansion is their daughter who protects the palm of their hands!
The faces of the Liu couple had already turned the color of pig liver, and the two looked at the Gu couple uneasily, and saw that the two of them were pale, and finally looked at each other, and then made up their minds. Liu Zhaoming kicked open the door of the firewood room in anger, and Qiao'er Xu happened to be standing behind the door, but he was kicked and flew away. Only her screams of pain were heard, and everyone rushed in, all staring at the dumbfounded Liu Shenxiang and Zhan Sihang.
"If you don't change it repeatedly, have you ever thought about the face of my Liu family!"
Liu Zhaoming was not willing to hit Liu Shenxiang after all, clenched his fists and waved them a few times before taking them back. But between these openings, the word "Liu family" was bitten very hard, and everyone knew that this was a change of way to help Liu Shenxiang intercede - the Liu family came from the Liu family after all.
Only this time, Liu's face was already pale. Liu Zhaoming is right, she was born in the Liu family, but Gu Beichen is her son! What Liu Agarwood did today was aimed at Lin Mengyao, but if things don't slow down, then it's not just Lin Mengyao whose reputation will be damaged, her son will be ridiculed for the rest of his life.
It's tolerable, it's unbearable!
Liu didn't even glance at her younger brother, and said directly to Gu Mengde: "It's a matter of the Gu family's reputation, and it's most appropriate to leave this matter to the master." β
In this way, the faces of the Liu family and his wife have changed several times, and they can be regarded as knowing the attitude of the Liu family - what Liu Agarwood did today is to touch the reverse scales of the Liu family!
The Chen family knew that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly pulled Liu Shenxiang, who had not yet relieved herself, and pushed her to kneel in front of Gu Mengde: "Don't beg your uncle for mercy yet!" β
With this push, Liu Shenxiang stumbled for a while, but he also came to his senses. I wanted to beg for mercy, but when I saw Lin Mengyao looking at her with a smile, she immediately stiffened her neck again: "Why do you ask for mercy?" What did I do with me? I'm just remembering my cousin's innocence and robbing you to interrogate this wicked man!" β
In such a situation, you dare to be arrogant!
Lin Mengyao didn't say anything, she wasn't afraid that she wouldn't understand things, as long as she had a clear mind, she could hear the general idea of what was going on outside the door just now.
Looking at Liu Shenxiang's quibble, Gu Mengde kept a calm face, and stared at Liu Shenxiang for a while: "Uncle, you ...... You have to trust Xiang'er...... Xiang'er is innocent ......"
Innocent?
When these two words came out, even Liu Shenxiang himself felt empty.
Gu Mengde looked at Liu Shenxiang coldly, but ignored her, but turned around and apologized to Zhao Shicheng: "Gu originally wanted to ask Brother Zhao for help, but now this situation is ...... Alas...... If it spreads, I'm afraid it will be a joke for the people of Tonglu again, it's really ...... Alas......"
People who are used to walking on the scene, how can Zhao Shicheng not understand what Gu Mengde means. Let him stay, originally to clear the name of Gu Fu, and now that this kind of thing has happened, of course, I hope he will leave early.
Leaving is inevitable, but I have been thinking about settling with the Gu family but can't, but I can sell it well today: "Master Gu, don't worry, today's incident is a misunderstanding, the rumors stop at the wise, find someone to know it in your heart!" It's not too early now, Zhao has something at home, so he won't bother anymore! β
Zhao Shicheng is promising Gu Mengde that not only will he not spread the matter, but he will also protect the reputation of the Gu family.
"In this way, Gu will not be forced to stay." Gu Mengde gave up his hand, instructed his subordinates to send off the guests, and said to Zhao Shicheng: "Brother Zhao's heart is like a mirror, and he will never condescend to a corner of Tonglu!" β
Hearing Gu Mengde's words, Zhao Shicheng actually smiled as if he had received some great benefit, and he was eager to kneel and worship. (To be continued).
