Chapter Seventy-Five: The Undercurrent

The old lady was afraid that Gu Xi would suffer because she took care of her brother.

Gu Jiayao watched from the sidelines, the old lady was the best, but she was a loving mother to Gu Xi.

Changing Gu Xi's brothers as the protagonists, the old lady is definitely eccentric and abused.

Even Gu Xi's family has to be labeled as the best.

The old lady continued: "They all have hands and feet, and there is no shortage of them at home, so why do you give them silver?" At the beginning, the old man and I only sent you to the school. ”

"At that time, there was only enough silver to give one, so I naturally chose the handsome Xi'er."

"So Xi'er doesn't have to listen to the eldest daughter-in-law's nonsense, you don't owe your brother, and you don't have to raise a son for your brother."

The old lady's words were particularly reasonable, "Later, it was because of you that your father and I supported you, so they don't have to pay taxes today, and they can use silver to pay for labor." ”

"If anyone doesn't know how to be grateful, you tell me directly, and I will cut off my conscience."

Gu Xi: "......"

The enthusiastic and sincere old lady couldn't even bear the benefits of Gu Xi.

But among the Gu brothers, except for Boss Gu, who was a little different, the remaining two younger brothers all nodded in unison, obviously agreeing with what the old lady said.

I don't know if it's brainwashing and stupidity.

Gu Jiayao heard from the Jiang family that when Gu Xi was studying, the whole family tightened their belts, they couldn't eat dry food, Gu Xi could eat eggs every day, and even a chicken every month!

Back at the old house, Old Man Gu took a cigarette pouch and went to the village for a walk.

But for a moment, everyone in the village knew that Gu Xi, the second eldest member of the Gu family, was favored by His Royal Highness King Rui, and King Rui sent a gilded invitation to Gu Xi.

The smile on Old Man Gu's face didn't stop, "It's not worth anything, my son is good-looking, even the emperor has seen it." ”

"Daddy Gu really raised a good son."

This is the most common compliment, but Old Man Gu frowned slightly, took a puff of the cigarette pouch, and spit out a few smoke rings, "Isn't it, Xi'er is the most competitive son I raised!" ”

The old lady didn't cook a bowl of chicken soup for Gu Xi herself, she also went to learn from the old man to go outside.

She was afraid that the eldest daughter-in-law would be reluctant to put the ingredients, so she could only take care of it herself, but she called the Russian daughter-in-law except for the Jiang family to add firewood.

By the way, I listened to my daughter-in-law fancy touting Gu Xi.

The eldest daughter-in-law listened to the praise of her younger siblings about Gu Xi, and her big molars were about to sore.

Jiang was arranged by the old lady to rest.

Gu Jiayao laughed so hard that her stomach hurt, "I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect you to be born by someone. ”

The red glow on Jiang's face had not completely dissipated, and tea was poured into it again and again.

Gu Xi's eyes also flickered, and he smiled embarrassedly and helplessly.

That's right, Jiang was urged by the old lady to have another one, and it was best for his son to inherit the incense.

There are a lot of child-seeking charms on the table, and there are also home remedies for the old lady to give to the Jiang family.

Gu Jiayao danced with her hands, "You finally understand my pain." ”

In the past, she was urged to marry, but now her parents have been urged, why is she so happy.

"Alright."

Gu Xi pressed his fist to his lips, "You keep quiet, Aze will come in in a while, seeing you like this, you must not be scared away?" ”

"Run, run, he's not my man."

"Really?"

Jiang Shi asked meaningfully, "Fang just glanced at Aze a few more times, that Miss Zhao lost her mind for a moment towards Aze, aren't you jealous?" ”

Gu Jiayao denied it repeatedly, "I still ...... senior brother"

"What else?"

"It's not to the point of getting married."

Gu Jiayao looked at her parents frankly, "I admit that I have a good impression of him, and I won't confess it until I can tell whether it's because he can keep me as a character or whether I like it." ”

Chiang was silent.

Gu Xi agreed with Gu Jiayao: "You still have to choose what you like, we have waited for many years, and we don't care about staying up for a few more years." ”

"I wonder if I can turn a stone into a treasure?"

Gu Jiayao still couldn't give up the diamond in her hand, "Even if it can't reach its future value, such a beautiful thing can't really be disposed of as a stone." ”

"The idea of a diamond didn't come all at once."

Gu Jiayao gently pressed the corner of her forehead, "Actually, I am not happy to kowtow today with the help of King Rui's invitation, not to mention the reason why King Rui did this, it is that I ...... I don't want to rely on Ruiwang either! ”

With the help of others to slap your face, how can you slap your face yourself?

"Mother, I doubt that Miss Zhao knows the value of diamonds!"

Gu Jiayao's voice was very soft, "This world is already in chaos, with us, there may be others who have magical opportunities." ”

Gu Xi was a little serious, "Don't be afraid, we will always protect you for the rest of your life." ”

Jiang Shi also bowed slightly, "My peers are enemies, I and your father understand this truth, but you don't have to worry too much, your father and I won't lose to someone who has another opportunity." ”

At night, the bright moon hung high, and a figure sneaked into the house.

The shadow came to the bed with his hands and feet.

The girl's face was quiet, she slept soundly, her lips were slightly open, and her black hair was spread out on the pillow.

And next to her there are a few diamonds!

The black shadow slowly approached, as if he could hear the girl's long breathing.

He gently took a diamond and quietly left.

The shadow of the moon floats, leaving no trace.

After Gu Jiayao got up in the early morning, she didn't tap the number of diamonds, after all, it was not worth much.

"Where's Senior Brother?"

"Aze said to go into the city."

Jiang sighed: "He is an ambitious person, he is not willing to eat in our house for nothing, especially when we don't have any money, some time ago he was busy with it, but also because your father was still locked up, your father just cleared his wrongs, he was trying to make money to support his family, he is not a person who can be idle, honest and steady, and a good seedling of a son-in-law." ”

Gu Jiayao lowered her eyelids, indifferently and slowly drank porridge, she was too familiar with her mother's fancy forced marriage routine.

If it doesn't reach the point of falling in love, Gu Jiayao won't get married.

What's more, compared to getting married, she wants to have the ability to have a foundation, not so lucky every time, and she can rely on the power of King Rui.

With Gu Xi's current status, even if he has a lot of money, he can keep his gold and silver.

"Where's my dad?"

"Go to the prefect's yamen, and he will inquire about the progress of the case."

Jiang Shi said quietly: "I look at it in vain, and the people who sneaked in seemed to have disappeared out of thin air. ”

Gu Jiayao: "After public opinion is brought up, Xu can find a way to lure the snake out of the hole." ”

She always felt that the truth of the matter was about to surface.

King Rui's camp.

"Lord Wang."

"Huh?"

King Rui kept looking at the clear and transparent stone in his hand, and asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”

"The news that Gu Xi's family was almost burned to death spread throughout the city, and the subordinates checked it as if it was related to Princess Huining, but when they continued to investigate, they ......"

"No need to look it up."

King Rui hooked the corners of his mouth, "What should come will come, he won't even be unable to protect people." ”
