Chapter 252: Then it's good to be dumb
Looking at Ge Shuyu's distorted face, Chu Junlan smiled, did not answer, only picked up the tea bowl and ate tea leisurely, and continued to chat with Lu Ruohan, as if the unpleasantness just now had not happened, and she had not heard Ge Shuyu's bastard words.
With such a bearing, at least on such an occasion, there was no cowardice, and there was no inappropriate words and deeds that ruined the reputation of the Maoguo Mansion.
In contrast, Ge Shuyu, who originally wanted to make Chu Junlan angry and ugly, became a person who stirred up the banquet with arrogant words.
Mrs. An Luhou didn't like it in her heart, and the Duchess of Dingguo secretly hated Ge Weiming's actions behind her back, they were not far from Ge Shuyu, and they heard her words clearly, and they despised her more and more in their hearts, and they had no good impression of the Ge family.
Duchess Dingguo smiled and said to Xu: "Miss Lan is worthy of everyone's background, in the past, I was unwell, it was Miss Lan who healed me, if it wasn't for Miss Lan's enthusiasm, I am afraid that I am still weak and unable to move anywhere, and now with the teaching of Mrs. Shizi, Miss Lan has more and more grace." ”
Chu Junlan has everyone's bearing, but he compares Ge Shuyu's aunt more and more. The women present are all human spirits, where can they not hear the meaning of the Duchess of Dingguo?
Xu was a little surprised that the Duchess of Dingguo was willing to express her position in public, so didn't she choose to stand on behalf of the Duchess of Dingguo?
"Where is it, the Duchess of Dingguo is really praised, in my opinion, the lord of Shengping is a model of beauty, gentle and knowledgeable, if anyone can get such a daughter-in-law in the future, but the blessing that cannot be cultivated in eight lifetimes." Xu said with a smile.
In fact, although the Dingguo Mansion and the Maoguo Mansion are both noble origins, but the Dingguo Mansion is now in charge of the military power, since the Maoguo Bus has gradually withdrawn from the court, the two mansions are no longer the same, and the Dingguo Mansion and their family have never been close to each other.
Xu didn't know what Ge Weiming had done, but he was also grateful to the Duchess of Dingguo for being willing to speak for Chu Junlan.
The two immediately chatted hotly, and Mrs. An Luhou naturally followed her sisters to speak. Mrs. Ge was left to the side.
At this time, there is no need for people to say that Ge Shuyu is bad, as long as he praises someone with a clear attitude, it is equivalent to denying another person.
Mrs. Ge pursed her lips, her face showing a little displeasure.
Some women who were usually good with the Ge family saw that Mrs. Ge was displeased, and immediately came up to play a round, which made Mrs. Ge feel better.
After the banquet was dispersed, Chu Junlan said goodbye to Lu Ruohan and got into Xu's carriage, the car drove slowly, the tassels in the car shook slightly, and Xu took Chu Junlan's hand and was silent for a long time.
"Mother, don't be angry. It's up to others to say and think whatever they like," Chu Junlan took the lead and said with a smile, "It's just that Ge Shuyu has provoked several times and spread rumors outside, I plan to go to her tomorrow and talk openly and honestly." ”
Xu sighed, nodded and said: "This matter shouldn't have been let you come forward by yourself, I should have gone to talk to Mrs. Ge, but their family is too domineering and unreasonable, even if I go to talk, Mrs. Ge must have thought of a lot of rhetoric to shirk responsibility, besides, we are all the housewives, if we meet and talk about it, our family and Gege's family will completely break their faces, which is really inappropriate." ”
"Yes, so my daughter thinks it's better for us juniors to meet and talk, whether it's noisy or noisy, in the end it's just a matter between children, and it doesn't represent the position of the elders."
"Good boy, that's what you're saying." Xu Shi said worriedly, "But Ge Shuyu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, what can you talk about when you see her?" ”
"I'm just going to persuade her not to walk around the rumors, if their family has the ability to marry the Gongding Palace, if they can cross the clear road to the emperor and top my relationship with Xiao Xu, it is also their ability, but I still admire them, and they use such indiscriminate means to disgust people behind their backs, not only ruining Ge Shuyu himself, but also ruining Xiao Xu's reputation. Even then they are bound together in the end, would Ge Shuyu want to marry someone whose future is ruined? I don't think her ambition will allow it either. ”
Speaking of this, Chu Junlan patted Xu's hand soothingly, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, mother, I will only persuade her like this." ”
"That's good, you are an understanding person, and my mother won't say much."
Chu Junlan smiled and nodded in agreement.
With Xu's consent, Chu Junlan went to Ge's house the next day.
Ge Shuyu seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and someone was specially left in front of the mansion to guide the way, and the other party was leading Chu Junlan to the cross-courtyard where Ge Shuyu lied about her study last time.
When Chu Junlan entered the door, Ge Shuyu was sitting upright on the first place and picking fruits with toothpicks to eat, her bright red kedan nails echoed the red clothes on her body, the whole person was plump and gorgeous, and her makeup was exquisite, like a burning fire.
Seeing that Chu Junlan came alone, without even bringing a maidservant, Ge Shuyu raised his red lips and smiled.
"Oh, you're not small, you know I'm waiting for you here, do you dare to come by yourself?"
Not in front of people, Ge Shuyu is too lazy to even pretend.
Chu Junlan didn't care, and picked a rose chair on the side and sat down.
Ge Shuyu said: "Since you don't like my family, you naturally don't like my tea, so I won't let people pour tea for you." What do you want me to do, tell me. ”
Chu Junlan smiled and looked at the big maid who was serving closely behind Ge Shuyu.
Ge Shuyu raised his eyebrows, "What, do you want to kneel down and beg me for fear of being seen?" Then I won't let her go. You beg for it. ”
As he spoke, he sat down with his hands crossed, and looked at Chu Junlan with disdain.
Chu Junlan stood up and walked slowly to think about Ge Shuyu: "You think too much. I'm here to save face for you, I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed. If you don't want people to go, let it go. ”
As soon as the words fell, Chu Junlan had already come to Ge Shuyu, reached out and grabbed her red shirt, and with the force on his arm, he directly lifted Ge Shuyu up.
"Yikes!" Ge Shuyu's feet were hanging in the air, staring at Chu Junlan in horror and inexplicably, kicking his legs again, and breaking Chu Junlan's hands with his hands, but Chu Junlan's seemingly slender arms didn't move at all.
"You, what are you going to do!" Ge Shuyu was stunned, how could Chu Junlan have so much strength!
The servant girl who was watching saw that the situation was not good, and she was about to call someone immediately, and Chu Junlan quickly clicked twice on her.
The maidservant opened her eyes wide and her mouth wide open, unable to move or make a sound, and completely turned into a stake.
Ge Shuyu's eyes widened in horror, and he pulled Chu Junlan's hand harder and harder: "You let go of me, what are you going to do!" Come on, come on......"
Before she finished speaking, she was also tapped a few times and couldn't move.
Chu Junlan let go of his hand, threw the person down, took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, opened Ge Shuyu's mouth with a smile, and fed her the medicinal juice inside in her frightened sight.
"Aren't you able to spread rumors? I'll let you know what it's like to be dumb. ”
