Family.

Gu Lian ran around for a day, and only returned to the courtyard where they temporarily lived until dark.

As soon as he entered the gate with his front foot, Gu Qian's entourage invited him over, saying that Gu Qian had been waiting for him.

Gu Lian hurriedly went to Gu Qian's study, and Gu Lian was also there.

"Third, how is it, did you promise to help over there?"

Gu Lian was thirsty and hungry at this time, so he didn't care about speaking, so he quickly grabbed the teacup on the table and poured himself two cups of tea.

After a sigh of relief, he said: "The other party refused to even see me at first, and it wasn't until I took out the token that he saw me." As soon as I heard that I was going to ask them to help kill people, he immediately refused. ”

After speaking, Gu Lian grabbed the pastry on the table and stuffed a piece into his mouth.

Gu Yi was suddenly a little anxious: "They refuse to help?" So what to do? If our family's manpower wants to deal with Xiao Jingchen's people, they are simply hitting stones with eggs. ”

Gu Lian was not in a hurry at all, swallowed the pastry in his mouth slowly, took another sip of tea, and then said: "But then I told them who the person I wanted to kill was, and the person in charge immediately agreed to contact the people above." It seems that it should not be a big problem. ”

Gu Qian and Gu Jian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then when will they receive a reply?" There is no room for delay. ”

Gu Lian was a little impatient: "How do I know this, can those people be urged by me?" All we can do now is to wait patiently, and there is nothing else we can do but this. ”

The two brothers also knew that he was telling the truth, so they had to suppress the anxiety in their hearts and wait patiently.

But what they didn't expect was that the speed of the Dark Pavilion's reply was beyond their expectations. In the second half of the night, a man in black appeared in Gu Lian's room, almost scaring him and Xiao to death.

The man in black snorted disdainfully: "We took your order, but the risk is too great, and the silver has to be doubled." ”

Gu Lian didn't think about it, and nodded busily: "Okay, okay, after the matter is completed, I will make up the rest of the silver." ”

The man in black smiled coldly: "Are you worried about our ability? ”

Gu Lian shook his head vigorously: "Of course not." He did think so in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it at all to the man in black.

"No, hurry up and prepare the silver, we will only do things after we collect the money."

The situation was like this, and Gu Lian couldn't bargain, so he hurriedly asked Xiao to open a private treasury to get the silver.

Xiao is scared to death, and she is distressed to death, the silver in her private treasury is all her private money!

Gu Lian saw that her face was full of unhappiness, and pushed her very ungracefully: "Hurry up, don't rub it off!" ”

Xiao was still afraid of Gu Lian in the end, so he had to honestly open his private treasury and take out five thousand taels of silver tickets.

The man in black took the silver ticket, left a word for tomorrow's action, and left in style.

Xiao Shi asked with a white face, "Master, what's going on?" What did you do with the man's money? That's the private money she had saved for several years, all of which she had to leave for her daughter as a dowry.

Gu Lian glared at her: "Lin Ruan is the child of the Shen family. ”

Xiao Shi was like being struck by lightning, and it took a long time to come back to his senses, and he asked in a sharp voice, "Master, what did you say?" Wasn't Shen's child already disposed of back then? How could Lin Nguyen be her child? ”

mentioned the events of that year, Gu Lian was so angry that he didn't want to say a word.

Xiao Shi was so anxious that he circled around the room: "What can I do!" Lin Ruan is the child of the Shen family, so isn't Xin'er's identity about to be exposed? When the Shen family knows the truth, they will definitely not let her go. Master, you should think of a way to save Xin'er! ”

Gu Lian had a headache from her words, and couldn't help but scold: "Can you stop a little!" It's really a small door and a small household, and you can't get on the table, and you can't hold it down at all! And your good girl! Learn your little family qi out of ten! ”

He now really regrets his decision back then, and he also regrets marrying Xiao to fill the house. Xiao is a girl from a small family, although there is no problem with the rules, but that small family spirit, who has been the wife of Bofu for so many years, can't change it. And Xiao's daughter carried her little family spirit to the extreme, which made him feel ashamed many times.

He didn't feel much before, but after meeting Lin Ruan, he realized how important his mother's background was.

Lin Ruan grew up in the countryside, but he didn't have the slightest vulgarity, and his gestures carried a steady and dignified demeanor of everyone's ladies, especially the momentum around him, which was not comparable to the daughters of ordinary families.

Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, Xiao's daughter really can't become a prince wearing a dragon robe.

Xiao Shi's eyes immediately turned red when he was stimulated by Gu Lian's words, and cried: "Master, you actually treat me like this, am I such a person who can't be on the stage in your heart?" Then why did you marry me back then? It's okay if you don't look down on me, but Xin'er is your own flesh and blood, you say this about her, if you let her know, how sad should she be? ”

Gu Lian was so shocked by her words that the bruises on his forehead jumped: "You shut up for me!" Lin Ruan's matter, I have already arranged for people to solve it, and that person just now is the person who invited it. You give me a stop, don't be Xin'er Xin'er all day long, there is only Gu Ruan in this house, there is no Xin'er! There will always be only one identity, and you can put your heart in my belly. ”

As soon as Xiao Shi heard this, he immediately stopped complaining, and said with a smile: "Master, it turns out that you have already made arrangements, so why don't you say it directly?" went around such a big circle, but the concubine was frightened. Sure enough, you are the most painful Xin'er, ah no, it's Ah Ruan. If Ah Ruan knew everything you had done for him, he would definitely be moved. ”

"She doesn't need to know!" Gu Lian looked at her warningly, "Don't reveal half a word to her about this matter." Do you hear that? ”

Xiao Shi hurriedly nodded: "The concubine knows, and I promise not to say half a word." ”

Gu Lian's brain has been buzzing these days, and he really wants to sleep and rest. But at this time, he was troubled by the Xiao family, and he didn't feel sleepy at all, so he simply got up and went out.

Xiao chased out: "Master, where are you going in the middle of the night?" ”

Gu Lian didn't reply.

Xiao hurriedly sent a Yahuan to chase after him, but after a while, Yahuan came back and said that Gu Lian had gone to an aunt's yard, and Xiao was so angry that he smashed the cups and plates on the table.

Lin Ruan watched this good show from afar, and finally got the identity of the fake.

It turned out to be the daughter of Xiao and Gu Lian. No wonder the outside world has such a high evaluation of Xiao, saying that she is better to Gu Ruan than her own life.

That Gu Ruan looked about the same age as her, so the dog man and woman might have hooked up and committed adultery as early as when the original owner's mother married into the Gu family.

I just don't know what kind of role this Xiao played in Shen's death.
