(100) cynicism and humility
"Miss, the young lady is here—"
Although Huang Ying tried her best to be calm, there was still some trilling in her voice. Lin Mengyao pretended not to notice it, and she was not in a hurry to go inside, but stood in the courtyard and talked to Huang Ying. What Huang Ying did just now, she also did it, when Gu Ruyu went to Ningyun Pavilion to visit Gu Beichen, who was in a coma, she was guarding in the courtyard, and when she saw that Liu was coming, didn't she raise her voice like this as a reminder?
At that time, Lin Mengyao couldn't remember much about what kind of thoughts he had!
"Is your young lady unwell?" Lin Mengyao asked Huang Ying, "I made an appointment to meet at the time of the hour, but I couldn't wait for her?" ”
"I ...... My young lady...... The body is a little ...... Somewhat uncomfortable......"
Huang Ying stammered, Gu Ruyu had already opened the door and came out, and smiled at Lin Mengyao before she got closer: "Good sister, I am always very tired today, so I ......"
said so, but Gu Ruyu's reddened eyes still entered Lin Mengyao's eyes, but she didn't want to admit it, and Lin Mengyao only didn't see it. took her hand: "Mother is not worried, let me remind you of today's etiquette again, it's not too early to look at the hour, let's talk while walking!" ”
Walking parallel to Gu Ruyu, walking to the gate of the courtyard, Lin Mengyao couldn't help but glance back. The moment Gu Ruyu opened the door just now, she seemed to see a lot of plants in the house, among which the faint yellow was very eye-catching and frightening.
- Huang Zhi!
I knew that Gu Ruyu poisoned Gu Beichen, but the source of the golden drunkenness was always unknown to Lin Mengyao. If the one you just saw is really Angelica Angelica. That Gu Ruyu turned out to be drunk by making gold by herself! Because of the reasons in her previous life, Lin Mengyao knew that Huang Zhi grew up in the Miao Jiang area, but in this life, she learned from Guo Wei that the growth of Huang Zhi was particularly terrifying, and she actually grew on a mass grave and was fed by the blood of the dead.
To raise Angelica Angelica, you need blood!
Subconsciously held Gu Ruyu's wrist, but didn't see Gu Ruyu's slightest abnormal reaction, Lin Mengyao couldn't help but think: Could it be that she thinks too much?
"What are you thinking, sister?" Gu Ruyu asked suddenly.
"It's nothing ......" Seeing Gu Ruyu's inquiring gaze, Lin Mengyao smiled faintly: "I'm just thinking." After the ceremony. Isn't it time for me to take on another big business? ”
"Sister-" Gu Ruyu was ashamed for a while.
Looking at Gu Ruyu like this, Lin Mengyao suddenly felt a little sympathy. No matter what Gu Ruyu did at the beginning, after all, it was because of true love. Right now, she still thinks that she has no blood relationship with Gu Beichen. Finally they can be married—pitiful, lamentable, pity!
Lin Mengyao knew what was going on. But you can't say it. only pulled Gu Ruyu to laugh for a while. Towards Shen Yuxuan.
When he entered Shen Yuxuan, he saw a mother-in-law standing on the steps just now. Before Lin Mengyao could react, Gu Ruyu had already run forward excitedly: "Mother Xianglian." Is my aunt here? ”
The mother-in-law who was called Xianglian also responded with a smile: "Miss Cousin is doing lately?" ”
"If you are good, you are ...... I just miss my aunt and you very much-" Gu Ruyu was coquettish for a while, and finally remembered Lin Mengyao, and hurriedly introduced to Xianglian: "Mother Xianglian, this is my ...... Sister-in-law. Sister-in-law, this is Xianglian's mother who came to Pei's house with her aunt to marry. ”
Gu Wenhui, the aunt and grandmother of the Gu family, has never seen her person when she has only heard her name, and the Liu family mentioned that the aunt and grandmother of the Gu family are first-class characters, and now that she has seen this Xianglian, Lin Mengyao can also know it. Although this Xianglian is a subordinate and has reached the age of forty years old, she always has a bearing that others can't compare. This kind of bearing, always so familiar, as if I had seen it somewhere.
"The slave greets the young lady."
"Mother Xianglian doesn't need to be polite—"
The two didn't say much, only made a meeting gift. That Gu Ruyu no longer stayed at the door, and ran into the yard with a smile: "Aunt and aunt, Yu'er misses you-"
In response to Gu Ruyu's voice, the first to come out was Liu, and Liu was followed by a graceful and luxurious lady.
"Meng Yao, haven't you come to see your aunt?" Liu opened his mouth.
Lin Mengyao wanted to take a closer look, but when she heard this, she just hurriedly passed by. But even so, the words "clouds and temples are like ink, and cheeks are like snow" still appeared in her mind. He bowed his head and did not look up until he could speak.
"Meng Yao has seen her aunt."
"You are the daughter-in-law that Chen'er insists on marrying again?"
Lin Mengyao responded respectfully: "Thanks to her husband's refusal to give Meng Yao such an honor, Meng Yao is very frightened. ”
"Well, he's a good mannerist!"
Gu Wenhui's voice is like the bell in a mountain temple, hitting people's hearts directly, making people feel wide of body and mind for no reason, no wonder Liu asked Gu Ruyu to come to her side! At Gu Wenhui's request, Lin Mengyao raised her head slightly.
"The appearance is also first-class! It's not as good as my Yu'er! ”
Gu Wenhui's praise made Lin Mengyao's face look happy, but who knew that the surging shock hidden under such joy - this Gu Wenhui actually looked exactly the same as Meng Nanjun's aunt Meng Wenhui! In her previous life, she married into the Meng family and met Meng Wenhui a few times, and Meng Wenhui was a good friend of her mentor's Mrs. Ji, so she had a lot of contact.
Alluring the city, the country and the world, how could she be mistaken?!
Moreover, although the surnames are different, their names are the same, they are all "Wenhui"!
What's the secret?!
Lin Mengyao only felt that her mind was muddy, and she looked at Gu Wenhui directly, and she couldn't move her eyes.
"Why do you look at me like that? But I got dirty on my face? ”
"No, it's Meng Yao who is abrupt." It's rude to stare at others like that. Lin Mengyao felt the slight displeasure in Gu Wenhui's eyes, so she naturally denied it again and again, and her mind flashed, and she slowed down her voice and said: "As soon as Mengyao saw her aunt, she couldn't help but think of a poem. ”
"Oh? Is that one? ”
"There are beautiful women in the north, peerless and independent. One look at the city, and then the country-"
Lin Mengyao groaned unhurriedly, but her eyes fell on Gu Wenhui's face intentionally or unintentionally, paying attention to her extremely subtle changes. Sure enough, there was a faint sadness on Gu Wenhui's face. When an ordinary woman hears this poem, she must be happy with the praise of others, but if Gu Wenhui is Meng Wenhui, then it won't, because Mrs. Ji once told her embarrassing past.
When Meng Wenhui stayed in the boudoir, she had a relationship with the son of the first family. The son of the family once copied this poem to praise her. I just don't want to be made by providence. The son of the family fell from his horse and died.
When you hear this poem, you will inevitably recall that unforgettable past. How can you rejoice in the praise of the words?
Lin Mengyao even doubted whether Wen Hui in front of her was the aunt and grandmother of the Meng family in her previous life!
"It's a good word, but it's just a little bit liked." Gu Wenhui smiled faintly and concealed the sadness in her eyes: "I'm already old." How can you be worthy of such a word! ”
"My aunt is not old. My aunt's youth is forever! ”
Gu Ruyu said with a smile. Pulled Gu Wenhui and went to the house. Lin Mengyao followed, and the question in her mind swirled: Gu Wenhui is Meng Wenhui, so what is the relationship between Gu Mengde and Meng Zilin? Such a similar look. Mo is not a brother? But since they are brothers, how can they still be two surnames?
It's too complicated, and there is no trace, Lin Mengyao can't figure it out.
After sitting in Shen Yuxuan for a while, someone came to call Lin Mengyao. Also, it was almost time, and those guests came one after another, although she was temporarily in charge, she still had to receive those ladies and young ladies. However, in order to wait for her to get up, Liu and the others stood up and went with her.
Led by the subordinates, everyone came to the place where the female dependents rested - the garden.
The garden is full of flowers, lush shade, surrounded by green water, and there is no need to say it, because of the ceremony, Lin Mengyao also specially hung light silk curtains in each pavilion here. With the breeze, the silk curtains linger in the red flowers and green trees, so that the whole garden is even more chic.
When I entered the garden, the ladies and ladies were enjoying the flowers and chatting.
"It's a shame that the ladies came to the humble house and couldn't welcome them from afar!"
Liu's money didn't come forward, and greeted everyone for a while, and everyone laughed and responded with "more courtesy". only smiled, and everyone saw Gu Wenhui, and there was more flattery on the face.
"Oh, Mrs. Wei Guo is here too!"
"It's a blessing for me to be able to meet Mrs. Weiguo......"
In this way, Lin Mengyao was even more firm in her speculation: in her previous life, Meng Wenhui's husband's family was a famous military general in Jinghua, and her husband was a patriotic general appointed by the emperor. Let's ask, how can there be a second Lady of the Patriotic Monarch on the imperial land?
Who can this Gu Wenhui be if it's not Meng Wenhui?!
Once again, Lin Mengyao's rootless revenge heart really began to take root. No matter what the relationship between Gu Mengde and Meng Zilin is, as long as Gu Wenhui has a relationship with the Meng family, it will be fine. The origin of the Gu and Meng families has been found, so she only needs to wait for the moment when she is strong enough to meet the Meng family!
"Meng Yao, I haven't seen all the ladies and ladies yet!"
Liu called out, and Lin Mengyao came to her senses. Under the guidance of the Liu family one by one, Lin Mengyao saluted the ladies and ladies.
"This is Mrs. Gu Shao, who is the envy of Tonglu women?"
"Sure enough...... It's a unique style! ”
"Yes, the demeanor is good, I also heard that Ruan Qing is the number one beauty in Jiangnan!"
"Alas, it's a pity, how did this first beauty become someone else'......"
The two ladies in Chinese costumes do selfish desires, but they can sing and harmonize into everyone's ears.
A woman glanced at the two, and although the two young ladies were silent, their faces were somewhat contemptuous.
is also, not to mention that she was robbed on the way to get married before, let's just say that her background is also inconsistent with the Gu family's family - the Lin family and the Gu family are not in the right household, and she Lin Mengyao is still born to the Lin family's concubine, the daughter of the concubine!
However, Lin Mengyao pretended not to care, and Xiaoxiao Quan didn't notice the looks of these two people. She knew that someone would be upset with Ruan Qing for her! It's just that she didn't expect that it was Gu Wenhui who spoke before Liu. (To be continued......)
