Chapter 168: The So-Called Woman

After they arrived, they first went to the study to meet Old Man Gu.

Gu Kai is also there.

It's just that it seems that the faces of the two of them are not very good, and as soon as Li Ying enters, he realizes that the atmosphere is not right.

Gu Chi was also puzzled, "Dad, brother, what's wrong with you?" ”

Old Man Gu glanced up at him, "Coming?" ”

There was no excitement in the tone, it was very formulaic.

Gu Chi furrowed his brows tightly, the old man is like this, it is obvious that something has happened, what is it that makes the two of them so worried?

Gu Kai sighed, "Xiaoying, your sister-in-law has encountered some problems, she is a little unstable now, can you help me persuade her?" ”

Li Ying wasn't too surprised, she felt something wrong with Shen Qianqian last time, but now it's just an outbreak.

Out of caution, she still asked politely, "What happened to my sister-in-law?" ”

"She ......," Gu Chi said in general, as if he didn't know how to describe it, so he had to sigh, "You can just take a look." ”

Li Ying was led by the maid to Shen Qianqian's room, and as soon as she entered the door, she smelled a characteristic milky smell.

And Shen Qianqian was holding the child and coaxing, humming a nursery rhyme in her mouth.

In the corner of the room, there was also a middle-aged woman who was at a loss, and when she saw Li Ying coming in, she looked at her curiously, but she didn't say anything.

Li Ying let out a low voice, "Sister Qianqian." ”

As if hearing the voice, Shen Qianqian raised her head blankly, tilted her head and carefully identified it for a long time before she said, "Xiaoying, why are you here?" ”

"Big brother asked me to come and see you." Li Ying smiled gently, making people unguarded against her.

Shen Qianqian pondered for a long time, and then said, "Have you seen that woman?" ”

Li Ying was stunned: "Who are you talking about?" ”

"It's the woman he is outside, he still brought her home, and he still sleeps with her at night, Xiaoying, you help me, I'm going to collapse." Shen Qianqian looked resentful and gritted her teeth.

"What did you say?" Li Ying was so surprised that she didn't react for a long time.

Did Gu Kai really have an affair?

But he doesn't look like that kind of person, and he just looked in the study, and he looked quite normal.

Li Ying slowly approached Shen Qianqian, and found that her eyes were blue and black, obviously she hadn't slept well for several days, and she also understood that it was rare for mothers with children to have a few good sleeps.

Shen Qianqian's expression was low, although she had makeup on her face, she still couldn't hide her haggardness.

"He hugged the woman every day as soon as he came back, and that's not all, at night, he also asked this woman to sleep with us, yes, right here, he slept here, and that woman slept in the middle!"

As she spoke, Shen Qianqian also gestured to Li Ying.

As she spoke, her tears fell, and she looked at a loss, "Xiaoying, what do you think I should do?" I don't want that woman to ruin our marriage, but Gu Kai is too partial to her, no matter what I say, he still dotes on her just the same! ”

Li Ying felt that this matter was very tricky, and judging from Shen Qianqian's description, there was something wrong with it.

She looked at the bed and suddenly reacted.

Woman?

She looked at the child in Shen Qianqian's hand.

She couldn't be treating her children as her imaginary enemies, would she?

Thinking about it like this, everything was figured out in an instant, the last time Shen Qianqian said that after Gu Chi was with that woman, there would be a smell of milk on her body, isn't that the case with a newborn baby?

Li Ying had actually heard of this condition, called postpartum depression.

That is, after the mother gives birth, if the family, especially the husband of the mother, neglects to care for her at this time, the mother is likely to suffer from this disease.

In serious cases, it can also have unintended consequences.

Gu Chi had been busy with the company and the wedding before, so when he thought about it, it was all right.

Li Ying suddenly didn't know what to say, Shen Qianqian was obviously very sick like this.

She looked at the middle-aged woman standing in the corner, and she walked over, "How is my sister-in-law's condition?" ”

Before the woman could answer, she heard Shen Qianqian's yelling, "I'm not sick, they all said I'm not sick!" Are you trying to persecute me? ”

Li Ying: "......"

In this way, they are generally mentally ill.

The middle-aged woman spread out her palm, and there was a small paper bag inside, and there were a few pills in the bag, "I haven't taken the medicine today!" ”

Li Ying nodded, it seems that the Gu family already knows the crux of the problem, that is, Shen Qianqian is not willing to cooperate.

She took the paper bag and walked in front of Shen Qianqian, "Sister Qianqian, do you know what day it is?" ”

Shen Qianqian looked up blankly, "No, isn't it that woman's hundredth birthday?" ”

When Li Ying heard this, she almost couldn't help but laugh.

100th birthday?

In her mind, she couldn't help but think of Gu Kai with an old man with a furrow face, no, it was too discordant.

She corrected, "Who told you about that woman's 100th birthday?" ”

"I overheard, I heard Gu Kai talking about it in the study, they can't hide it from me!" Shen Qianqian said proudly.

Li Ying held her forehead and corrected her seriously: "No, do you know who this is?" ”

She pointed to the child in Shen Qianqian's arms.

Shen Qianqian looked down, it seemed that her brain suddenly shut down, and she thought for a long time before saying, "This is my child, she is my life!" ”

Li Ying nodded, it's easy to say if you still know each other.

"Then do you want to steal the limelight from that woman on this special day?"

Shen Qianqian lowered her head and chanted several times, "Steal the limelight? Steal the limelight from that woman? Then she nodded her head.

Why wouldn't she want to? She dreamed of knocking that woman down!

Li Ying smiled and said, "This is your child, isn't it?" You see that there are so many guests outside, and you will go out with Gu Kai's hand later, holding the child, and saying that this is your child's 100-day banquet, don't mention that woman at all, in front of outsiders, you are still a loving couple, so won't you be able to hit that woman? ”

Shen Qianqian thought about it, it seemed to be such a reason.

"And what if that woman runs out out of the blue?" Shen Qianqian asked worriedly.

"No, I'll help you keep an eye on that woman, and I won't let her come out, okay?"

Shen Qianqian nodded, "Thank you so much, Xiaoying." ”

Li Ying smiled very gently, "No thanks, this is what I should do, oh, by the way, I still have pills here that can make you look more youthful and beautiful, do you want to crush that woman in appearance again?" ”

Li Ying spread out her palms and generously showed her the pills in her hand.

Depression patients are insane, even if she makes it up outrageous, they may believe it.

Shen Qian looked at it carefully, a little skeptical, "Is there really such a magical pill?" ”

Li Ying nodded, looking confident.

Shen Qianqian finally made up her mind, took the pill in Li Ying's hand, and swallowed it in one gulp, and Li Ying hurriedly handed her water.

It is estimated that coaxing Shen Qianqian to take medicine every day is also a hard job, otherwise the middle-aged woman in the corner would not look so sad.

After taking the medicine, Shen Qianqian hurriedly pulled Li Ying and asked, "How is it?" Have I ever looked a little better? ”

Li Ying smiled and nodded, "Yes, it looks much better!" The more you smile, the better it looks! ”

Shen Qianqian was very happy with her words, and seeing that the time was almost up, Li Ying got up and went back to the study.

"Xiaoying, how's it going? Is your sister-in-law better? ”

Gu Kai looked worried about Shen Qianqian, and she noticed with sharp eyes that Gu Kai's ears and temples already had a few gray hairs.

I guess it's been a matter of worrying about it these days.

Li Ying didn't nod, because she couldn't tell if Shen Qianqian was better like that.

just said lightly: "I have already taken medicine just now." ”

Gu Kai nodded, "Just take the medicine, everything is easy to say." ”

"Big brother, sister-in-law, when did this situation start?"

Gu Kai recalled, "It's probably about a month after I gave birth, and I blame me, I'm usually busy with work and neglect to care for her." ”

Gu Kai also looked very self-blaming, but he couldn't help himself.

"We have just discussed, during this time, most of the company's affairs will be handed over to Koike, so say hello to your younger siblings in advance, so as not to make you uncomfortable."

Gu Kai didn't seem to have lost his power at all, but was relaxed.

Li Ying looked at them blankly.

No, do you really see money as something outside of your body?

She felt that this might be the most harmonious family she had ever seen.

"Brother and sister, you don't have such a big psychological burden, I can also take out my hand and accompany Qianqian more, maybe her condition will get better!"

Li Ying said that she understood, but the shock in her heart still couldn't be calmed down for a long time.

As soon as this news is released, I don't know what the media outside will write, most of them say that the Gu family is going to change!

Old Man Gu also sighed, "I thought it was a happy day, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen, alas! ”

"Dad, don't sigh, no matter how big the matter is, Xiaochi and I will be on top of it, you don't have to worry so much."

Gu Kai was afraid that Old Man Gu would be in a hurry, and besides, he and Gu Chi could fully afford to take the lead, so they didn't have to worry about him at all.

Gu Chi didn't say anything, just stood aside obediently.

He and the old man have had conflicts since childhood, and whether the relationship is deep or not is not deep, even getting along now is not so natural.

Gu Chi looked at the time, "The guests in the hall should have already arrived, shouldn't we be ready to go down?" ”

At this moment, a brightly dressed woman pushed the door and entered, it was Gu Chi's sister-in-law Gu Yinglan.

"Everyone is here, what are you still grinding about? As the owner's family, he didn't show up, what kind of words does this look like? ”

As he spoke, Gu Yinglan's words paused, and his eyes fell on Li Ying's body.

"Eh, Xiaoying, you are so beautiful today, you are really cheap Gu Chi, this kid!"

Li Ying smiled politely and replied with a polite word.

Gu Chi was a little dissatisfied, "Sister-in-law, I'm also very good, Xiaoying's marriage to me, why is it cheap for me?" ”

"Stinky boy, you're quite narcissistic!" Gu Yinglan glared at Gu Chi.

turned to look at Gu Kai, "By the way, is it okay for Qianqian over there?" If she really can't, she won't show up. ”

No matter what Gu Yinglan said, she is also a member of the Gu family, and she has to take into account the face of the Gu family in doing things.

Gu Kai was a little frustrated, "I'll take a look, if she's in good condition, it should be fine." ”

With that, Gu Kai went out.

At the end, Gu Yinglan didn't forget to tell him, "You are kind to others!" Look what has become of a nice little girl who gave birth to a child. ”

After that, Gu Yinglan began to arrange the next process, first Old Man Gu went down, said something about the scene, and expressed his welcome to the guests.

Then Gu Yinglan went to Gu Kai's side to see if she could help, and tried her best to let Shen Qianqian show up, after all, in addition to her child's 100-day banquet, it was also her and Gu Kai's wedding.

A woman's most important day.

Li Ying was a little worried, "Can Sister Qianqian's state work?" ”

In a wedding, it is impossible for the bride to show up, right? What's going on?

Gu Chi didn't say anything, just pinched Li Ying's shoulder, he was not so familiar with Shen Qianqian, and that kind of anxiety was naturally not as serious as Li Ying.

Old Man Gu's voice was already ringing downstairs, "Welcome everyone to take time out of your busy schedule to attend the dog's wedding and my eldest granddaughter's 100-day banquet......"

He held the microphone with a proud smile on his face.

He has added a new Ding to his Gu family, and the old man Gu is happy in his heart!

After the lengthy speech, the guests were polite to each other, and some people couldn't help asking: "Mr. Gu, why don't you see Gu Dashao and Dashao's grandmother, as well as Gu Xiaoqianjin?" ”

They are all running for the two young grandmothers today, these two young grandmothers don't talk about it first, but how can this young grandmother also be the protagonist of today, and until now, they have not shown up.

No matter how you think about it, it feels a little unreasonable.

Old Man Gu's expression froze, "Qianqian is a little unwell today, and she may not be able to appear later, everyone here will eat and drink well first." ”

The old man who said it didn't give anyone else a chance to ask, and stepped down directly.

This kind of grand event, although some people do come to the banquet, some people take this opportunity to expand their contacts.

At this time, many people have gotten together in twos and threes, the men are talking about business matters, and the women are the short gossip of all kinds of parents.

"If you want me to say, this Gu family's grandmother's shelf is really big enough, and she is not feeling well, most of it is an excuse!"

"Yes, yes, I know that today is such an important day, how can I pay attention, maybe something is wrong, and I am delaying time!"

"But I guess it's mostly because she is unmarried and pregnant, and she feels that she has no face to see people, so she hides and doesn't dare to come out!"

At this time, someone next to him asked, "How do you know that she is pregnant out of wedlock?" ”

"You are stupid, if you are not unmarried and pregnant, why do you have to wait until the child's 100-day banquet to be held together?" The man who had just spoken replied.

The person next to him nodded, it made some sense.

"I heard that this young grandmother's family background is mediocre, and it is estimated that she relies on her children to get to the top!"
