Chapter 670: Reaping the Consequences
She raised her eyes to look at Gu Tingchen's eyes, but only got a very affirmative nod from the other party, and she immediately understood, and responded with a "good" in a trance.
It's just some tricks that can't be put on the table.
Su Yuebai sighed in her heart, feeling that this kind of thing was simply annoying, but she had to deal with it.
However, some things proved to be difficult to deal with.
Even with Gu Tingchen's reminder in front, Su Yuebai didn't expect that Gu Qingqing would suddenly come over and pretend to be a sister with her.
So when she was grabbed by a familiar hand, Su Yuebai was still confused, and she was pulled in front of the elders for some reason.
"Oh, sister-in-law, what are you doing so far away? Sit down, this is your first time going back to our ancestral home. ”
Gu Qingqing smiled sweetly, and affectionately held Su Yuebai's arm, and the name she called out made Su Yuebai couldn't help but get goosebumps.
"Good...... Just a little uncomfortable. ”
But under the gaze of so many elders of the Gu family, Su Yuebai really didn't have the courage to tear her face with Gu Qingqing, so she could only reluctantly smile and answer, quietly wanting to withdraw her hand from Gu Qingqing.
But it was clear that she had failed.
Gu Qingqing didn't look out at all, took two cups of tea, and put one in front of Su Yuebai.
"If you're uncomfortable, just say it, is my sister-in-law still seeing us? Come on, come on, let's have tea first. ”
The tea had just been brewed, and it was still steaming hot, and the faint fragrance of tea was blurred, which made Su Yuebai stunned again.
Which one is Gu Qingqing playing?
Although the other elders turned their eyes away, they were obviously not very interested in this new daughter-in-law, and after a few polite words, they changed the topic to another place.
Gu Qingqing was waiting for this time.
She was affectionately next to Su Yuebai, making a gesture to serve the cup of hot tea in front of her.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you drink tea, this is the best tribute tea, I made it for you myself."
Perhaps it was Gu Qingqing who emphasized the word "hands", and Su Yuebai looked at the cup of tea with some hesitation.
Could it be that there is something wrong with this tea?
But she was not allowed to finish thinking about this problem, Gu Qingqing "slipped her hand", and there was not a drop left in the hot cup, and it was directly splashed on her body.
"Ahh
Gu Qingqing and Su Yuebai screamed at the same time, and even Gu Qingqing shouted louder than Su Yuebai.
This shout was buried in the hustle and bustle next to it.
The expression on Gu Qingqing's face was even more surprised than Su Yuebai's, but a hint of schadenfreude flashed in her eyes.
"Oops, I'm really sorry, I accidentally spilled tea on you, Yuebai, are you okay?"
I can't hear any embarrassment in this tone.
The tea was piping hot, and although it had been left for a while, the taste of splashing on the body was still not very pleasant.
Only then did Su Yuebai understand what Gu Qingqing's idea was.
She glanced at the group of people sitting around her, and she didn't know what it was, but no one was there to move around at will.
"Why don't you go to the bathroom and clean up, there is a reason for it, and the elders will definitely not blame it."
Gu Qingqing smiled and "kindly" gave Su Yuebai an idea on the side.
"Anyway, if they want to blame it, it's also to blame my brother, and it has nothing to do with you."
Su Yuebai's heart was blocked, her feelings were waiting for her here, although she had been on guard, she still accidentally fell for the other party's tricks.
She could feel the burning pain in the burned area, as if some of the fabric had stuck to her body due to the heat.
But I don't know if it's a psychological reason, Su Yuebai actually felt that all this was bearable, so she didn't say anything.
This time it was Gu Qingqing's turn to be surprised, she thought that this woman would jump up directly in pain, but she didn't expect to be so bearable.
"I'm fine...... Qingqing, don't you drink tea? Su Yuebai pointed to the rest of the tea, her eyes threatening.
It seems that the plan to make this woman ugly in front of her elders has failed.
She knew very well that if the trouble continued next, she would be the one who would suffer, so she looked at Su Yuebai quietly, what she planned to do next.
In the end, the person who found out that Su Yuebai was not quite right was Gu Tingchen.
This place is unfamiliar, Gu Tingchen originally wanted to catch Su Yuebai so that she could give her some comfort, but she didn't expect to meet the other party yet, but she could feel that the person next to her was hiding in the opposite direction.
The slightest mistake in his heart made Gu Tingchen turn his head, and at a glance he saw a somewhat forbearant expression on Su Yuebai's face.
"Yuebai, what's the matter with you?"
He looked at the place he had just touched, and found that the place was actually wet, and when he gently lifted the fabric, he saw that it was already red and swollen.
"How did it come to this? Why didn't you say it earlier? ”
Gu Tingchen's face changed greatly, and he didn't care about the few people who were still talking, he dragged Su Yuebai and stood up, and suddenly became the two who stood out in the crowd.
"Tingchen?"
Soon someone asked suspiciously, "What is this going on, is something going on?" ”
Gu Tingchen smiled at the man, "The moon white spot is not very comfortable, I'll take her to the back to rest." "Fun read
The man's face was a little surprised, "It's uncomfortable, this body is ......"
"Blame me, blame me, let's miss the company for a while, and then come to excuse everyone."
While speaking, Gu Tingchen had already half-hugged the person, and the people around him were ambiguous.
Su Yuebai buried her head in Gu Tingchen's arms, her cheeks flushed with suspicion that was almost burning.
How did she think that she heard something else from Gu Tingchen's tone?
After applying medicine to the burns on his body and changing his clothes, Gu Tingchen had the heart to count the lover in front of him.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier if you were uncomfortable! If I hadn't found out, would you still have to endure until the end of the ancestor worship? ”
Su Yuebai was sullen, "I don't want to disturb you either, I will cause trouble as soon as I come, and I have a bad impression." ”
Gu Tingchen was helpless about Su Yuebai's thoughts, and wanted to say more, but the lobby began to be noisy, and the ancestor worship was about to begin.
The two hurried back, Su Yuebai looked at the broad back in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a warm current in her heart.
The ritual of worshipping ancestors is not very simple, but it is not so cumbersome, and it should be simplified.
Su Yuebai followed the process that Gu Tingchen had told her, and followed behind the army in a decent manner.
The group of people who were still talking and laughing just now didn't talk so much, everyone's faces were full of solemnity, and even Su Yuebai's uneasy thoughts were collected a lot.
Gu Qingqing was not far from Su Yuebai, the eldest lady who usually seemed to be unable to stop without opening her mouth, but at this time, she was unusually quiet, which couldn't help but surprise Su Yuebai, and the vigilance in her heart was also lowered a little.
After a while, it was time to worship the ancestors, and everyone had a few sticks of incense in their hands.
Su Yuebai was a little ignorant, and at some point someone stuffed something in her hand, and when she looked down, the wisps of sandalwood fragrance came up along the top of the lit incense.
She looked around blankly, and the people next to her were all doing their own things, and no one seemed to hand them anything.
So where does this incense come from? It can't be that I'm hallucinating.
Looking down again, Su Yuebai found the problem.
Between thoughts, the door of the ancestral hall was already open, and Gu Qingqing held her breath in her heart, just wanting to see Su Yuebai plant.
She didn't believe it, if such a big thing happened, Gu Tingchen would still be able to protect that!
Thinking so, she used her spare eyes to look at the place where Su Yuebai was, especially the incense sticks in the other party's hand.
Just like that, Gu Qingqing's eyes widened, and he almost fell to the ground with the incense in his hand.
How can it be!
She obviously stuffed four sticks of incense for Su Yuebai at that time, why did Su Yuebai only hold three sticks in her hand?
In such a short period of time, can Su Yuebai still find out that something is wrong and dispose of the extra one?
Su Yuebai on the other side seemed to notice the unkind gaze placed on him, and turned his head and happened to meet Gu Qingqing's eyes.
Then she laughed.
This smile made Gu Qingqing's lungs explode, and he didn't even remember walking forward, and he almost stepped on the feet of the person next to him.
"Qingqing, you go forward, stop and do something, this place can't go wrong."
I don't know which sister complained behind him, which provoked the anger in Gu Qingqing's heart.
But under the gaze of so many elders, she didn't have a good seizure, her face was about to turn red, and she could only curse Su Yuebai in her heart with hatred.
The strength of his hand unconsciously tightened a little.
The girl with the double ponytail had something before, and she always wanted to please Gu Qingqing, so she lowered her head and reminded in a whisper.
"Sister Qingqing, your fragrant ......"
Before this sentence was finished, the curse just now seemed to be fulfilled on Gu Qingqing himself.
Only two steps forward, Gu Qingqing accidentally used a force in his hand, and one of the incense sticks actually "clicked" like this, and half fell to the ground.
This time it was amazing, the eyes of the audience were focused on her, and it was really the attention of everyone.
"Qingqing, what's the matter with you?"
A dignified-looking middle-aged man strode over, his face dark.
"Even the incense is broken, what the hell is going on? All right...... Don't get it, you go out first. ”
"No, it broke it on its own!"
"Get out!"
This time, no one dared to speak, even the girl with the double ponytail just now shut up and hid in the crowd.
Gu Qingqing stared at the three incense sticks at a loss, her face full of disbelief.
How could it be broken?
But no matter how unwilling she was, she could only listen to the man's words and turn around and leave first.
The curious or gloating gazes around her were like slaps in the face, making her feel embarrassed.
The moment she stepped out of the ancestral hall, Gu Qingqing finally couldn't control the expression on her face, and she didn't look like the elegant lady at all.
It's all to blame for that Su Yuebai, if it weren't for her, how could she be so ugly?
