Chapter 334: Honesty
Gu Chunyan sat alone in the room and began to calmly brew plans, looking at her son who was dying on the bed, her heart was even more solid, on weekdays, Mrs. Xu rarely came to her in person, just because it was the Chinese New Year, she came here to walk around.
If you miss this opportunity, you don't know how long you will have to wait to get close to her, and you are confined to this small courtyard, and you can't even step out of the door.
The most important thing is that her son doesn't have long to live, she taps her fingers on the table, calmly thinking.
Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it was night, Gu Chunyan called Hu Ma, ordered her to close the door with her backhand, attached it to her ear, and said a few words lightly. When the old mother heard this, she immediately sat up straight, looking frightened.
"If you miss this time, you won't have a chance." The corners of Gu Chunyan's mouth hooked a sneer, and her eyes were full of cruelty.
"Young lady, I ......" the old mother trembled and couldn't say a complete sentence.
Gu Chunyan grabbed Mama Hu's shirt with her hand suddenly: "Since you already know my plan, either cooperate, or I will kill you." ”
The old mother's heart jumped a little, looking at the gloomy color on Gu Chunyan's face, her heart suddenly moved, and she hurriedly lowered her voice, "Young lady, please make it clear, the old slave will definitely do it." ”
"Our house smells of medicine every day, so you know what to do?" Gu Chunyan said with compassion.
The old mother naturally understood the meaning of Gu Chunyan's words, and knew that she couldn't do anything to Mrs. Xu, so she could only do things behind her back, and the most difficult thing to detect was smoke.
"The old slave understood."
"Well, let's do it, remember, you must not be discovered. The thing is done, and your benefits will be indispensable in the future, and you can enjoy your old age in this Xu Mansion in Nuoda. Also, don't think about reporting the news, with Mrs. Xu's cautious nature, if you learn that you betrayed your master, after I leave, you won't end well, and she won't allow a three-faced and two-sided slave to breed right and wrong in the mansion. ”
Gu Chunyan is cold and cunning by nature, these days, she is constantly speculating about people's hearts, she has already taken Hu Ma to death, people die for money, birds die for food, Hu Ma is as timid as a mouse, and greedy for vanity.
It can be said that she has a thief's heart but not a thief's guts, as long as she instigates a few times, she will soon be tempted.
Gu Chunyan is self-aware, between her and Mrs. Xu, there is no incompatibility at all, with me without her.
The old mother hurriedly responded: "The old man understands, please rest assured, young lady!" ”
"Okay, let's go."
"Yes, the old slave will do it."
Mama Hu stepped back, and an intriguing smile overflowed from the corner of Gu Chunyan's mouth. These people who bullied her and trampled on her, she will return it a hundredfold and a thousand times.
……
Shanwa Village, two or three days have passed, the relationship between Duran and Gu Youan has not eased, every time Gu Youan comes to apologize to her, she nods lukewarmly, the more cold she is, the more uncomfortable Gu Youan feels.
With nothing to do, Duran fiddled around in the room with a self-written cookbook, sometimes holding a brush to write and draw, and then smearing it all. I can't seem to find my head.
Seeing this, Gu Youan intimately poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over, "Lady, if you can't think of it, you don't want to, anyway, our recipes are enough for diners to eat once a day, and they can taste it for a year." ”
It means that no matter how you eat it, you won't get tired of it.
Duran didn't refute, but obediently put down the brush and took the hot tea he handed over, this small gesture made Gu You feel relieved and ecstatic, he understood that Duran was going to reconcile with him.
Reconciliation? Gu You'an felt a little uneasy in his heart, looking at Duran's calm appearance, he always felt that she had something to say.
Because for the past few days, Duran has been turning a blind eye to him, as if he didn't exist at all.
Duran picked up the tea, took a sip, looked up at him, and asked suspiciously, "Why do you look stupid?" Why are you stunned, come and sit, I have something to discuss with you. ”
Oops, it can't be a bad thing, right?
Gu You'an was anxious in the past, "Lady, I really didn't mean it that day, I just ...... I wanted to tease you, I didn't expect you to be serious. Moreover, it was really you who insulted me at night, and it was normal for you to be drunk at the time and not remember clearly when you woke up. I shouldn't be arguing with you. Lady, I have been dependent on my grandfather since I was a child, and in this world, except for the feeling that my grandfather gave me home, there is only you. I believe that you also think so, if you want to leave me, with your free and uninhibited nature, how can you stay with me all the time. Therefore, we have already identified each other and cannot do without each other, although we are not husband and wife, we are also inseparable family. You don't want to face it, you don't want to admit it, I don't understand what you've been running away from. ”
Taking a deep breath, Gu Youan stared at her tightly, and simply said the questions he had been asking in his heart.
He wondered what Duran thought, how could a woman as smart as she not understand her true heart?
When the two of them had a cold war, he could no longer accept Duran's feeling of snubbing him, and he must make a clear question today. 258
"I don't live for myself." Duran replied simply: "I'm not a selfish person. ”
"Hehe, so you are afraid of my feelings, or grandpa's feelings, so you reluctantly stay?"
Duran didn't expect Gu Youan to be so paranoid, and she didn't want to hide something, she saw the firmness in his eyes, he was going to have a showdown tonight, he had already discovered that he was different, but he had been pretending not to know.
It seems that they really need a knee-to-knee conversation to completely solve the doubts in each other's hearts, so that she can calmly and officially decide whether the relationship between the two really starts or just leave.
She snubbed him for the past few days, not intentionally avoiding him, but thinking about what she wanted, could it be that she, a person in the new era, traveled to ancient times, and had to accept the words of the matchmaker here, feudal etiquette, and worship the church to get married, is it considered a husband and wife?
She has always longed for free love, the two love each other deeply, only then do they have the courage to hold hands and grow old together, if there is no love guarantee, marriage is just a chain that binds herself, she crossed over and married him, as a wife. If it weren't for that, she might have had another way of living.
What she struggles with is whether her current life is contrary to the kind of life she yearns for, whether she feels happy, relaxed and free, whether she is happy, and whether it is worth guarding for a lifetime.
Getting along with him bit by bit, there is no doubt that he is indeed more reliable than many men, no matter from that point of view, he is a man worthy of a woman's life.
And she fell in love with him unconsciously, how she fell in love, she didn't have a clue, it was so inexplicable, she could even go to the border and risk her life to find him. At that time, she thought that she was just treating him as a relative, a friend, and a partner in living together.
Later, Xue Yiwan intervened in his life and stayed by his side, she felt uncomfortable and jealous, she blamed him, and she began to be hypocritical.
Once, how bold she was, how uncaring, what a crisp woman, she didn't want to let life get involved, it would make her feel insecure.
She knows that the world here is inferior to men and women, which is contrary to her own thoughts, and it is common for men to have three wives and four concubines, which she accepts as incompetent, with Gu Youan's current life and status, she will come to Shengjing in the future, the words of the matchmaker of his parents, and the interests of the family are mutually beneficial, and he is very likely to marry the right lady to be his concubine.
And what about yourself? Although he is rich, he is just a businessman in the final analysis.
The disparity in status made her feel unconfident and did not have the courage to go down with him, and it was easy to live the life she wanted with her own ability and all by doing business.
It's just that...... Is she willing to give up on him? Are you willing to give up on him and live your own happy life?
Can you really be happy without him?
Duran began to hesitate, whether to accept him or reject him?
Gu You'an's eyes were fixed on her face, refusing to let go of any of her subtle expressions, she was embarrassed, her brows were furrowed, but she was silent, as if it was difficult to choose......
What the hell was she hesitating about? Is it so hard to confess to him? They were companions who knew each other, and she had a grudge against him.
Gu You was silent, waiting for her to speak.
Finally, after a long time, Duran raised his head, looked at him with burning eyes, as if he wanted to see through his heart, and asked softly, "You...... Know who I am? ”
God, somehow, he asked such a thing when he opened his mouth, and Duran was really stunned by himself.
Why didn't she change her question, so she wouldn't let Gu Youan think she was a ghost, okay, she was.
A wisp of ghost.
Gu Youan's heart tightened suddenly, and he speculated suspiciously: "Lady, I don't know who you are, but I guess, you must not be the original Silly Lan, right?" ”
"Not bad." Duran confessed, "I'm not from this world, I'm from another world, where I'm dead, but my soul is piercing Silly. ”
After saying this, Duran was completely relieved, she looked at him fixedly, and there was a big posture of letting go.
"Really?" After hearing this, Gu Youan was not only not afraid, surprised, but excited beyond words, he nervously grabbed Du Lan's hand, for fear that she would slip away.
"You...... Aren't you surprised? Duran was confused by his expression, and according to common sense, he didn't run around in fear after knowing this, shouting that there was a ghost in his mouth.
"Nope." Gu Youan shook his head again and again, he looked excited, Duran finally told herself her secret, she was honest with herself, indicating that she had completely accepted herself.
He was overjoyed and pursued after the victory: "Lady, I don't care where you come from or who you are." I don't care about these, I only care, you are the lady I am marrying, and you are the wife who shares weal and woe with me. No matter what happens in this life, I will never leave you and grow old together. ”
The expression is confessed, righteous and strict, and the sincere eyes make Duran feel at ease, what more can he ask for in life?
