Chapter Ninety-Four: Telling Right and Wrong
() As soon as Gu Chen returned home, he was called away by Steward Liu, and after he finished dealing with urgent matters, he heard Qin Niang say that she was going to be beaten as soon as he stepped into Qinyuan, and immediately walked in quickly.
"Why are you here?" Qin Niang is strange, on weekdays, Gu Chen can't wait to be too lazy to step into her Qin Garden, because every time she comes, she is so angry that she throws off her sleeves and leaves, and her face is extremely unbearable.
But he didn't know which tendon was wrong recently, and the number of times he came to Qinyuan became more frequent, and he always launched a gentle offensive against her, which made her quite uncomfortable.
At first, she thought that he was relaxing her vigilance and waiting for an opportunity to say a favor for Tang Wan, but later she found out that it was not, and she also wondered if he had another purpose, but many days passed back and forth, and she didn't see him show any clues, which suddenly made Qin Niang almost think that Gu Chen had changed her sex, and she really wanted to be good to her.
But the memory of her previous life is still so profound, as if everything happened yesterday, how could she believe that Gu Chen would change sex? I wouldn't believe that Gu Chen really cared about her.
"Qin'er, how many times do you want me to remind you, you and I are already husband and wife, isn't it normal for me to come here?" Gu Chen walked in front of her, and when he saw that she was going to put on shoes, he naturally bent down to put them on for her.
Qin Niang's feet couldn't help but stiffen, and then returned to normal.
She took a deep breath and told herself not to be fooled by his illusions.
"The pond in the garden has been dug up, and I have people buy some fish to put in it, and I am about to come over to take you to see it, and some precious lotus flowers have been moved into it, you must like it." Gu Chen straightened up, looked at her and said gently.
Qin Niang shook the goosebumps on her body, and said unnaturally on her face: "My grandmother sent someone to spread the word that I want to go to Lufu." ”
Besides, what did she do with the pond dug up? She's not digging a pond.
Qin Niang was not interested in this, but Gu Chen's focus was on the word "Lu family", and then when he contacted the sentence "beaten" he heard when he entered the door, his face suddenly became solemn: "I'll go with you, I want to see who dares to beat you." ”
Qin Niang raised her face and looked at him, I have to say, what he said was very good to her heart, if someone protected her, her heart was indeed a lot more stable, after all, she is very weak now, what if after arriving at the Lu family, there was a conflict and hurt the child in her womb?
"I think it's my second cousin who went to tell my grandmother again, and you know what happened in front of the gold shop before, but my grandmother has always protected her, I'm afraid that after I go, I won't be allowed to say more, and if you go with it, you may have to beg for a few beatings." Qin Niang reminded.
Even if she goes alone, even if she asks me, it will only be a double palm, but Gu Chen is a man, as soon as he goes, maybe it is the family law, and the stick is directly on the back, even if he is a person who practices martial arts, it will hurt for a while.
Qin Niang didn't feel sorry for him, but out of obligation, she also had to remind him.
"Then it also depends on whether those people have the ability to beat Young Master Ben." Gu Chen sneered, took her hand and said, "Let's go, I want to see what they have to say about today's matter." ”
His hands were dry and warm, giving people a great sense of comfort, Qin Niang pursed her lips, didn't say anything, just hung her head, and was led out of the house by him.
The Lu family sent a carriage to pick her up, this strong intention
Si is already obvious, if she drags it out, I'm afraid she understands that there are going to be some rumors about her in the capital.
……
Lufu Hall.
Mrs. Lu sat on the throne in a disapprehensive mood, and asked from time to time: "Are people coming?" ”
The next person replied: "Back to the old lady, not yet." ”
Mrs. Lu paused the cane in her hand fiercely, eager to knock a hole in the floor: "Why haven't you come yet?" Didn't you hear that you would have returned home a long time ago? ”
Zheng Yanxi on the side fanned the flames and said: "Grandmother, look at her, she just doesn't take you seriously, so she doesn't want to come." ”
One sentence hit Mrs. Lu's pain point, and her face suddenly became even more ugly.
"Grandmother, you are an elder, she doesn't want to see you like this, it can be seen how she treats us peers on weekdays, she was arrogant before, and now that her uncle has been promoted, she is even more terrible, her tail is about to rise to the sky, don't you see, her high-spirited appearance." Zheng Yanxi said, hanging her head aggrievedly, looking like she might cry at any time.
Old Madam Lu was really distressed when she saw it, and her anger towards Qin Niang increased a lot.
"Wait for her to come, see if I don't teach her a good lesson." Old Madam Lu said angrily.
When Zheng Yanxi heard this, the corners of her lips were almost invisible, and then she made a timid and sisterly look: "But, grandmother, she is also the daughter of the Yang family after all, you are really punished, and it is not easy to explain to the Yang family when you turn around, besides, my cousin may not be able to help herself at that time, after all, she has to take care of the Yang family behind her." ”
Mrs. Lu looked at her distressedly and said, "You are kind, she has bullied you like this, and you still help her speak, she can bully you regardless of the affection of her sisters if she cares about the Yang family?" Even if she is the daughter of the Yang family, her mother still crawled out of my belly, I will punish her, is it possible that the Yang family can still tear down my Lu family? ”
If the Yang family really punishes the younger for an elder, they will come out to embarrass the Lu family, and I am afraid that it will not be good for the Yang family to spread the word.
Therefore, Mrs. Lu is sure that even if she punishes Qinniang, the Yang family will not do anything to her, and as for her current husband's family, it is even more impossible to do anything to her.
Even if the Gu family is a scholarly family, but now that no one is an official in the court, Gu Chen even went directly to the sea to do business, lowering his price, just a businessman, he still wants to turn the sky upside down?
Mrs. Lu was extremely disdainful in her heart, she originally thought that even if Yang Yuanhai was a squire of the Ministry of Industry before, his official position was not high, but he would not marry his daughter to a businessman, there are many people in the capital, and she is not happy, she has to admit that with Qin Niang's intelligence and appearance, it is okay to have a high door.
However, the Yang family actually ruined the chess game and married their daughter to a businessman, which is full of capital, I am afraid that it belongs to his Yang family maverick, and it is difficult for others to say it, and they don't know how to laugh behind their backs.
It seems that the Yang family's tutor is nothing more than that, otherwise, how could he allow his daughter to lower her value and do such a thing that makes her mother's family unable to raise their heads.
"Grandmother, you better dissipate your anger, it's not worth it to be angry." Zheng Yanxi said with a well-behaved and filial look.
Old Madam Lu glanced at her lovingly and sighed:
"You care about your grandmother, don't worry, I have asked people to go to Tang's gold shop to buy you noodles, when the time comes, you can wear it, show your head at the Hundred Flowers Conference, and find a good family, don't learn from your cousin, marry a lowly businessman."
Zheng Yanxi's heart was overjoyed, and she forcibly suppressed the smile that was about to overflow, lowered her head, and said obediently: "Yan'er knows, even if Yan'er doesn't marry, she will never shame the family." ”
Old Madam Lu nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, Mrs. Lu's personal maid came in with a delicate sandalwood box and said respectfully: "Old lady, this is the head that the old slave personally went to pick for Miss Biao, take a look, are you still satisfied?" ”
So saying, she took the box to the old lady and opened it.
The old lady glanced at it, her old eyes flashed brightly, and she sighed: "It is worthy of being a new product from Tang's gold shop, it is really beautiful, Yan'er, take it quickly, let those who look down on us take a good look, our Yan'er is not bad." ”
Zheng Yanxi took it with both hands respectfully and bowed gratefully: "Thank you, grandmother." ”
She held the box in her hand, and she couldn't stop feeling excited in her heart.
"Thank you, silly boy, you know that your grandmother has always loved you, as far as your cousins and cousins in the Lu Mansion are concerned, your grandmother is not so affectionate, if you really marry a good family in the future, don't forget that your grandmother is good to you." Old Madam Lu's words, how could Zheng Yanxi not understand?
She immediately expressed her loyalty and said: "Yan'er knows, I'm not like my cousin, she hasn't married a high-ranking family yet, she doesn't take people in her eyes like that, and she just said that in the end, it's just that her uncle was lucky and promoted, if she is like me, the daughter of a six-grade official, I don't think she will dare to be so unsightly, Yan'er will not forget my grandmother's kindness to me no matter how rich or poor she is in the future." ”
The words were sincere, and Mrs. Lu was very comforted when she heard it, no matter what, the Yang family couldn't count on it, and that Qin Niang was not close to her, and she married a businessman, what is the use? Now she can only pin her hopes on Zheng Yanxi.
I hope that she will marry a high family in the future, and she can remember to help the Lu family for one or two.
"It's still Yan'er who understands reason." Mrs. Lu praised with relief, and heard someone outside the door come in to report.
"Old lady, Miss Yang Jiabiao has arrived."
Zheng Yanxi immediately handed over the box in her hand to her personal maid, and motioned her to hurry up and take the things back to the house with her eyes, for fear that in case, the jewelry in her hand would be taken away again.
The maidservant understood and took the box and stole away.
Zheng Yanxi adjusted her expression, and saw Qin Niang walking in, and with her, there was Gu Chen.
"Qin'er has seen my grandmother, I don't know what my grandmother suddenly called me?" After Qin Niang saluted Mrs. Lu, she didn't hesitate and asked directly.
"Gu Chen has seen his grandmother, and when I heard that my grandmother wanted to see Qin'er, I thought that since we got married, I haven't seen my grandmother yet, so I took the liberty to come with me today, and I hope my grandmother won't be surprised." Gu Chen said, bowed to Mrs. Lu in a proper manner, and then generously met Mrs. Lu's scrutinizing gaze.
Old Madam Lu looked at Gu Chen's face, and her eyes flashed.
