(359) The sunset returns uninvited
In the memory of his previous life, this Meng Xiyuan was not filial to his mother and brother, but he was a bully, and he was a complete bastard. But what he saw today made Lin Mengyao look sideways - Meng Xiyuan had a lot of respect for Gu Beichen, and there was no slackness in his words and expressions.
In the carriage, hearing the conversation between the two people riding side by side outside the car, Lin Mengyao, who was originally looking sideways, was even more incredulous. Although she could see that Meng Xiyuan had a heart for Xiao Yunying when she was in the Zangchun Pavilion, she never imagined that her heart would be so heavy. Meng Xi originally went out of the Zangchun Pavilion with Xiao Yunying first, but this time he was waiting for Gu Beichen here, just to ask Gu Beichen to say two good words in front of Zhou Zijin for Xiao Yunying.
"Brother Gu, you have also lived in Jinghua for a long time, when you hear some things about Miss Xiao, although Miss Xiao is stubborn and willful, she will not treat human life as a child's play after all." Outside the carriage was Meng Xiyuan's voice, which was very sincere and sincere: "So, Xiyuan asked Brother Gu to clarify one or two things for Miss Xiao in front of Brother Zhou. β
As Meng Xiyuan's voice fell, Gu Beichen's clear laughter sounded, and for a long time, Gu Beichen teased: "The one who knows Miss Xiao is not Brother Meng Xian!" β
Except for the sound of horses' hooves, there was a silence, and it was obvious that Gu Beichen's words made Meng Xiyuan silent. Only a moment later, Meng Xiyuan smiled: "Brother Gu is willing to help Xiyuan with this?" β
"You and my brother, how can you help each other." Gu Beichenlang smiled, "However, everything is based on facts, if Miss Xiao is innocent, I Gu will come out like this." β
"Brother Gu, I guarantee with my life, Miss Xiao is definitely not the kind of person who harms people's lives!"
Meng Xiyuan swore an oath. vouched for Xiao Yunying's life, which made Lin Mengyao frown for a long time: In the past life and this life, how could this Meng Xiyuan be a different person?
After pondering for a long time, the sound of Meng Xiyuan's horse's hooves had already disappeared, and Gu Beichen also lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.
"Don't hang the curtains, otherwise you won't live up to such a sunset and snow!" Lin Mengyao gave up her seat to Gu Beichen, and while stopping Gu Beichen from lowering the curtain, she pulled his hand and said, "I didn't expect that Meng Gongzi was also infatuated." β
Gu Beichen heard this, but smiled silently. Stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Mengyao's body. Facing the sunset, look at the snowy scene that glows like a girl. This white snow is always white and flawless, but who knows that the dirt underneath it is dirty.
The carriage traveled all the way west, and it didn't take long to enter the city of Tonglu. It is rare for the Tonglu area to have such a large amount of snow. Far from being discouraged by the snow, the people were discouraged. There was also a lot of interest because of the snow. Along. There are a few naughty dolls with shovels sliding on the snow, and the sound of laughter startles the cozy sunset. Jumping on the glittering branches.
"Hahaha, come after me, come after meβ"
"Be careful, I'm coming-hahaha-"
The two children chased and threw snowballs on the road, and their fleshy little faces were as red as apples because of the cool winter air. Lin Mengyao watched the lively and lovely two children chasing and playing, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile.
"Don't be envious, our children will be cuter than them!"
This Gu Beichen was like a worm in Lin Mengyao's belly, and he actually guessed her mind when he caught a smile. Bursts of sweetness welled up in her heart, and Lin Mengyao gently stroked her belly, which was already a little bulging. It is also strange to say, there was no bulge at all in the previous two months, but now it is only a few days of work, and it is actually slightly bulging - life, it is so wonderful!
A heartfelt sense of happiness spread in her heart, and Lin Mengyao couldn't help but sigh that God was not kind to her in this life. There is goodness, beauty is in sight, beautiful!
When he sighed, his eyes turned white, and a snowball flew towards him. Frightened, Lin Mengyao almost exclaimed, but fortunately, Gu Beichen's eyes were quick, and he reached out to catch the snowball in his palm.
"What's wrong?" Gu Beichen took the snowball, but his hand didn't let go for a long time, Lin Mengyao was very worried: "Husband, husband, ......"
"Don't worry, I'm fine!" Gu Beichen came to his senses and smiled indifferently, his face as calm as ever. However, God knows, his heart is not at peace at this moment. As he crushed the snowball, he clearly felt that there was a note hidden in the snowball - who was going to send him a message in this way?
Quietly looked around, but there were no other suspicious people except the people who were traveling. For the sake of safety, Gu Beichen lowered the heavy curtain under the pretext that the cool air gradually worsened at dusk.
When the carriage "squeaked" in front of the Gu Mansion, Hongxuan was already waiting, Lin Mengyao got out of the car, and took a big coat to help her put it on, and then took the ginger tea held by Cuizhu behind her and gave it to Lin Mengyao to drink, and then carefully helped Lin Mengyao to enter the mansion.
After the husband and wife met the Liu family, Gu Beichen went out again because of something, and Lin Mengyao went to the Ningyun Pavilion where he lived.
"Young lady, that uncle and young lady have been waiting in Ningyun Pavilion for a long time." Out of Shen Yuxuan, Hongxuan said in a low voice.
In this regard, Lin Mengyao was very surprised, it stands to reason that this Hongxuan should have told the Liu family about this matter early, and let the Liu family reject this undesirable person for Lin Mengyao! No matter how bad it is, she should be considerate of her status as a pregnant woman and hand over the matter to Gu Beichen to deal with. However, she abandoned these two methods, and just said it to Lin Mengyao at this moment. Looking at the red silk who bowed slightly and lowered her eyebrows, Lin Mengyao wanted to find a clue from her expression, but what caught her eyes was the usual calmness of the red silk.
I don't understand, but I don't ask much. The purpose of Liu Agarwood's coming today, don't think about it, Lin Mengyao also knows: the enemy of the enemy is a friend!
Although Lin Mengyao, as Gu Beichen's wife, is a stumbling block for Liu Agarwood to enter the Gu family, compared to Gu Ruyu, she Lin Mengyao is not worth mentioning in Liu Agarxiang's eyes. Gu Ruyu is blessed, whether it is talent or the favor of the Liu family, which point is better than Liu Agarwood. Under the crisis, it is reasonable for Liu Agarwood to form an alliance with Lin Mengyao.
It's just that the so-called "alliance" has to be willing for her Lin Mengyao!
"Cuizhu, come here!" Lin Mengyao greeted Cuizhu, and when Cuizhu approached, she whispered in her ear: "Can you hear clearly?" β
Cuizhu frowned slightly, obviously puzzled, but she still nodded: "Hear clearly!" β
"If the young lady has anything important, she can tell the slave to do it, after all, Miss Cuizhu is not from this Tonglu, so she may not be familiar with it." Looking at Cuizhu's figure in a hurry, a trace of doubt flashed in Hongxuan's eyes, and then she was calm.
Lin Mengyao smiled: "Thank you Aunt Hongxuan for your concern, but although this girl Cuizhu is stupid, she has been in the Gu Mansion for nearly a year, and she is still familiar with the house." β
Carried forward by the red silk, it didn't take long for the plaque of the Ning Yun Pavilion to come into view, Lin Mengyao knew that this time entering the Ning Yun Pavilion would be another hard work! (To be continued......)
