Chapter 92: What I Asked for (2nd Watch)
Wang Lanxin shook her head and knelt down.
Old Man Gu was helpless, and after a while, he said, "If you have anything to say, you can say it!" ”
Wang Lanxin raised her head and looked at Old Man Gu, "Eight years ago, in the Battle of Yuxueling, the three fathers and sons of the An family were all killed on the battlefield, in addition to the old weapons, there is another inside story, Grandpa Gu, you have already got the news at that time, haven't you?" But you didn't stand in the way. ”
Old Man Gu's face changed, and his face sank, "Who did you listen to?" ”
Wang Lanxin was so young that she couldn't stand Old Man Gu's fierce gaze, lowered her head, and told the truth, "My sixth cousin." ”
Old Man Gu stared at her, "What else did he say to you?" ”
Wang Lanxin shook her head, "I miss my seventh cousin, the Wang family knows it, and the sixth cousin knows it, I begged the sixth cousin, and he instructed me and asked me to come to Grandpa Gu." Spoke this sentence to me. What the specific inside story is, the sixth cousin didn't tell me, and I don't know, but the sixth cousin said that An Huajin had learned the inside story of the year. ”
Old Man Gu's face changed greatly.
Wang Lanxin plucked up the courage to raise her head and looked at Old Man Gu, "With An Huajin's temperament, since he knows the inside story, then, Grandpa Gu, you stood by and watched, knowing but not stopping, how could she not complain?" I'm afraid that I don't want to marry into the Gu family again, and the seventh cousin is the Gu family, he treats An Huajin's heart, I don't need to say, Grandpa Gu, you also know that once An Huajin hurts the seventh cousin, it must be the most seriously injured, I'm afraid it's unimaginable, you have cultivated the seventh cousin to inherit the Gu family since you were a child, you don't want him to be ruined by An Huajin, right? ”
Old Man Gu was silent, his face was a little pale, but after all, he was a lot older, and his eyebrows were still calm.
Wang Lanxin bit her lip, revealing a sad look, "Grandpa Gu, I like Seventh Cousin, I have liked it since I was a child, I used to think that I could marry Seventh Cousin, who knew that you engaged An Huajin to him eight years ago, since I learned about this marriage, I don't know how many times I cried, I didn't have a day of peace, if it wasn't for His Majesty canceling their marriage contract, I wouldn't dare to be delusional anymore, but now, I really want to fight for myself and ask Grandpa Gu to fulfill it." ”
Old Man Gu was silent.
Wang Lanxin lowered her head, knelt on the ground, and waited quietly.
The secret room is quiet, and the pin drop can be heard.
After a long while, Old Man Gu sighed, "Four girls, get up!" ”
Wang Lanxin raised her head and looked at Old Man Gu, "Grandpa Gu? ”
Old man Gu said, "The six boys of the Wang family are indeed good at attacking the heart, in this life, I was born for the Gu family, I lived for the Gu family, and in the future, I will also die for the Gu family, this is my destiny the moment I was born and I took over the Gu family." I had to accept my fate. And Yan'er, who is also the heir I have devoted 20 years of hard work to cultivate, has general eyes, when he remembers, I can see that he is cold and thin, afraid that his heart is empty, there are no seven emotions and six desires, nothing, not even the Gu family, that is not a good heir, it just so happened that the old man Wang took a fancy to Yan'er's talent and early wisdom, found me, and I grinded for a few days, I taught Yan'er to teach him for a few years, but usually, I also stared at it and did not relax, a family cultivated an heir, it is so meticulous and lean, in Yan'er's body, I really can't afford to make mistakes. ”
Wang Lanxin was overjoyed.
Old Man Gu waved his hand, "Go ahead!" I'll think about it. ”
Wang Lanxin got Old Man Gu's words, so naturally she didn't dare to say anything more, got up from the ground, and walked out of the secret room.
After she walked out of Old Man Gu's house, the cold wind blew, and her back was cold, and she found that she was sweating. Naturally, she couldn't go to see Gu Qingyan with a sweat like this, so after thinking about it, she went directly to Gu Molan's courtyard.
Gu Molan is embroidering a wedding dress, the Gu family and Uncle Yiyong have agreed on a wedding date, next September, nearly a year of preparation time, not too fast, not slow, just the best age for the daughter's family to get married.
Seeing that Wang Lanxin was coming, Gu Molan hadn't seen her for a long time, so she immediately greeted her, "Fourth cousin, are you here?" ”
Wang Lanxin nodded and smiled at Gu Molan.
Gu Molan habitually reached out and grabbed her hand, and found that her hand was very cold, and immediately said, "It's so cold, why are you wearing so little?" Why not bring a hand stove? ”
"I'm here to deliver something to my seventh cousin, but I can't hold the stove, the maids are careless, I'm afraid of breaking things." Wang Lanxin explained with a smile.
Gu Molan noticed that she was holding a box in her arms, and she asked curiously, "What are you giving my brother?" ”
"A century-old ginseng. My mother's dowry has two plants, one for my sixth cousin and one for my seventh cousin. ”
Gu Molan nodded, "This is a good thing, my aunt is willing to do it?" ”
Wang Lanxin smiled, "My mother is a little reluctant, but I heard that the sixth cousin and the seventh cousin are not in a good condition, so I am reluctant." ”
"My brother doesn't necessarily take it." Gu Molan said sincerely.
Wang Lanxin was silent for a moment.
Gu Molan sighed, "Fourth cousin, you haven't let go of my brother yet?" You've lost a lot of weight, but there's nothing you can't put down, as long as you want to open some. ”
"I can't think of it." Wang Lanxin shook her head.
Gu Molan was speechless.
The two of them entered the inner room, and the inner room was burning with a dragon on the ground, and Wang Lanxin suddenly felt that the whole person was warmer.
The maidservant made a bowl of tea and handed it to her, she put down the wooden box, reached out to take it, and said to Gu Molan, "I'm afraid that I will go alone, and my seventh cousin won't see me, so I specially came to ask you to accompany me." ”
Gu Molan happily agreed, "My brother's yard is not far away, it's nothing for me to accompany my fourth cousin, it's just you...... Hey, my brother only has an important county lord in his heart, since he returned to Beijing, according to my grandfather, he sent a letter to Nanyang every day to An Xiaojun Lord, fourth cousin, you want people to have talents, you want to have a good look, you want a family background, why bother? My brother is good, but he only has a heart. ”
What she said was quite euphemistic, where does Gu Qingyan have a heart? He just has a heart that can only let go of An Huajin.
Wang Lanxin lowered her head, looked at the blue tea in the tea cup and said, "Ninth cousin, you can put it down, but I can't, even if he doesn't like me, I want to sleep with him day and night." ”
Gu Molan was helpless, "My brother, if he doesn't like you, it is impossible for him to sleep with you day and night." ”
Wang Lanxin pursed the corners of her lips tightly, "If I can marry him, I will be content." ”
Gu Molan completely lost her voice.
The two cousins have been talking since they were children, and whenever they sit together, they always have endless words, and since this year, many times, they have gradually become relatively speechless, and they don't know what to say when they sit together.
One looks at the other and wants to persuade to pull out the scourge, and the other is desperately persistent and swears to die and does not want to give up.
After sitting for about two teas, Wang Lanxin's clothes on her back dried, stood up, and said to Gu Molan, "Cousin Nine, let's go." ”
Gu Molan nodded.
The two walked out of Gu Molan's courtyard together and went to Gu Qingyan's place.
The two of them came to the gate of Gu Qingyan's courtyard, were stopped by someone, and gave their hands, "Miss Nine, Miss Wang Si." ”
"Where's my brother? My fourth cousin and I came to see him. Gu Molan said.
The guard stood still, "Miss Nine, Miss Wang Si, please go back!" Childe said that no one would be seen. ”
Gu Molan turned her head to look at Wang Lanxin.
Wang Lanxin pursed her lips, handed the box in her hand forward, and did not force her to see her, and said in a good voice, "I brought a century-old ginseng to my seventh cousin, and I bother you to bring it in for him." ”
The guard hesitated, "Miss Wang Si wait a minute, and her subordinates will go down and tell the son." ”
He didn't dare to take it on his own.
Wang Lanxin nodded.
The guard turned around and went, and after a while, the guard came back and shook his head at Wang Lanxin, "Gongzi said thank you Miss Wang Si for your kindness, he doesn't need it, Miss Wang Si, please go back!" ”
Wang Lanxin could only take back the box.
The guard turned to Gu Molan again, "Childe has confessed, let Miss Nine calm down, prepare to get married, nothing to do, don't always come out and walk around, contracted the wind and cold, and have to work in the Uncle's Mansion to ask for warmth." ”
Gu Molan's face flushed and she lowered her head, "What my brother said is true." ”
The guard turned back to the courtyard, and the gate closed tightly.
Gu Molan turned to Wang Lanxin and said, "Fourth cousin, you also saw it, it doesn't work for me to accompany you, you might as well give up." My brother and him, when he didn't have a heart, you couldn't live in, and now that he has a heart, you can't go in. ”
Wang Lanxin pressed her teeth against the tip of her tongue, biting her lip, she could feel the pain in her heart, and whispered, "If I could give up, I would have given up a long time ago, but I can't do it." ”
Gu Molan also felt distressed, stepped forward and held her hand, "Let's go, go and sit with me for a while." ”
Wang Lanxin nodded.
An Yining poked his head out of the courtyard gate, glanced at the backs of the two people again and again, and then, seeing that the two were gone, he retracted his little head, and the little adult sighed generally.
What a scourge my little uncle is!
"What did you do outside?" Gu Qingyan asked in the room.
An Yining immediately ran back to the house, shook the cold air on his body, and then came to Gu Qingyan's bed, scratching his head honestly, "Just go and see." ”
Gu Qingyan snorted lightly, "Go and copy the "Yuexi Collection Notes" again." ”
An Yining lowered his face, "Little uncle, aren't you?" I just ran out and took a look at it, and I didn't do anything, did I? Why are you punishing me? ”
Gu Qingyan said calmly, "Gentlemen don't eavesdrop. ”
An Yining accepted the punishment and turned around.
