Chapter 22: Temptation
"I don't know." Gu Yunjin said.
Xu Lingyi looked straight into Gu Yunjin's eyes, as if he was thinking about whether her words were true or false, and asked again after a long time: "Didn't my cousin go to Qingyu Hall in the afternoon?" You didn't ask him? ”
Gu Yunjin's brows furrowed.
The Shilang Mansion is so big, whoever comes to invite An and who walks out of the mansion can't hide it.
Wei stared at the movement in the Yang family's courtyard, which was not surprising, but Gu Yunjin was surprised by Xu Lingyi's attitude.
She tilted her head and asked, "Why should I ask him?" ”
This time it was Xu Lingyi's turn to be asked by her.
For a moment, both of them were silent.
After a while, Xu Lingyi sighed and said in a suppressed voice: "Who can you hide from your thoughts?" You've always looked at your cousin differently, he got such a great creation this time, can you bear not to ask him? ”
Hearing this, Gu Yunjin's heart beat a few beats faster.
Ten years ago, she actually can't remember much, but she doesn't think she has crossed the line.
A lot of emotions in the clouds and fog were only after Yang mentioned it to her, and then there were vague thoughts and expectations.
At this moment, can she be regarded as "looking the other way" for Yang Xiyu?
How did Xu Lingyi see it?
"I don't understand what my sister said, whether it's the eldest brother, the second brother, or Cousin Yu, or Cousin You, I ask myself if I don't treat everyone equally, where did I do something unruly, so that my sister thinks that I am familiar with Cousin Yu and alienated from other brothers? If that's the case, you should also quickly let me have a bottom in my heart, and look back to apologize for what I should apologize for, and apologize for what I should apologize. Gu Yunjin said.
As soon as he heard her speak, Xu Lingyi knew that Gu Yunjin was angry.
In my impression, Gu Yunjin rarely gets angry with others, but today, he scared Xu Lingjie in the morning, and now he is temperamental again.
Xu Lingyi was puzzled: "What's wrong with you today?" I also heard that you asked Nian Xia to beat Mama Du? ”
"It's beating, she provoked me and my second sister, if you don't fight such a slave, is it still like talking?" Gu Yunjin raised his eyebrows and said, "Sister relax, I'm not unreasonable in doing things, one is one, two is two, the general's mansion is not as particular as the Shilang Mansion, but I'm not a rough person, it's still the same sentence before, where do I treat other brothers badly, you tell me, I'm very reasonable, I'm going to apologize." ”
Xu Lingyi was embarrassed, how could she not know that Gu Yunjin was such a difficult girl, and she came back with a sentence or two.
This is reasonable, if you are really reasonable, you will not punish Yang's maid and beat Xu Lingjie's mother-in-law again, this hand has been stretched out to Qingyu Hall, where is there any reason?
Xu Lingyi settled down and said, "It's my sister who can't speak, and if she says the wrong thing, you treat other brothers the same." I just thought, if you go to Ling Jie more often, you must be familiar with the eldest brother and Cousin Yu, you rarely come to my house, and you rarely have the opportunity to talk to Ling Lan and Cousin You. ”
"Sister's words are so sour, then I'll go to your place next time," Gu Yunjin replied casually, and after a change of words, he added, "These are all small things, sister, don't say that I am familiar with Cousin Yu in the future, maybe it will be invisible, and some gossip will be born in vain." ”
Xu Lingyi understood, and said tentatively: "You hate him?" ”
Gu Yunjin pursed his lips and smiled: "He is a cousin, and I am also a cousin, so no one can hinder anyone." You ask him about the little grandfather, I don't know anything about it, why don't you ask him yourself? ”
Xu Lingyi smiled and waved his hand, and said a few more words to Gu Yunjin, and then sent her into the Orchid Garden, turned around and went back.
Nian Xiamu sent Xu Lingyi away, turned his head and asked Gu Yunjin: "Girl, what did the eldest girl tell you about it for so long?" ”
"She," Gu Yunjin shrugged, "I'm here to find out the news." ”
"Inquire about Second Master Yu and Little Grandpa?" Nian Xia asked again.
Gu Yunjin raised his eyes, shook his head and said, "Wrong, it's to inquire about me and the Yang family." ”
Nian Xia was puzzled for a while, and Gu Yunjin didn't tell her in detail.
Of the three mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law in the Shilang Mansion, Mrs. Min spoke by seniority, and the Yang family was the eldest daughter-in-law, and she had her mother's family to rely on, but the Wei family was the lowest one among the three.
The Wei family is just a family of merchants, this family affair was set before the development of the Xu family, with the temperament of Mrs. Min, after Xu Yan got the help of Mount Tai, she would definitely withdraw from the Wei family, just as she ruined the marriage of the Xu family.
But Xu Chi has seen Wei's family, and he likes this wife who has not passed through the door in every way, and he does not let Mrs. Min find a reason to withdraw from her family.
Mrs. Min couldn't screw Xu Chi, and Xu Yan said a few words for her younger brother, so she was saved.
It is precisely because of this that the Wei family is not liked by Mrs. Min, and she can't compare to the Yang family, who can balance her mother-in-law with her mother-in-law, so her mind can only be placed on her children.
Gu Yunjin knew that in the next few years, for the sake of Xu Lingyi and Xu Linglan's family affairs, the Wei family took great pains and was bent on climbing the door.
At this moment, Yang Xiyu suddenly recognized the little grandfather, how could the Wei family not care?
It's just that the road of Ningguo Mansion is still foggy, and the Wei family doesn't know where to hear the wind, for fear that the Yang family will turn Gu Yunjin with crooked thoughts, and really let the Yang family add another family like the General's Mansion, so how can the Wei family compete with the Yang family?
Thinking of this, Gu Yunjin remembered a past incident.
In the past, after her marriage with Yang Xiyu was decided, Wei's face was as if she had been immersed in a dye vat, jealous, angry and regretful.
It's not strange to be jealous and angry, only that "regret", Gu Yunjin didn't come back after half a year, and Wei regretted not learning from Yang.
The fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, and Wei You is also studying in the Shilang Mansion, if Wei asks Wei You to marry Gu Yunjin, it will kill two birds with one stone.
Before Gu Yunjin went to Lingbei, Xu Lingyi was also ordered to come and see her, and the meaning in and out of the words was that the Yang family was not kind, if it was in the Wei family, it would not be like this.
Gu Yunjin was holding his bags at that time, and he wanted to leave the capital with all his heart, but he didn't have the heart to think about what Xu Lingyi had in his words, besides, time doesn't treat people, what is there to say about things that are a few years late?
But now, it's not too late.
It's not too late, and she doesn't want to mix it up.
To get back the dowry left by the Shi family, Gu Yunjin has to rely on the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to restrain me and me to limit you, but she never wants to be a pawn for them anymore.
However, she didn't fulfill Yang's intention this time, and Wei's should not suddenly think of killing two birds with one stone.
What Gu Yunjin needed to do was to wait for the doctor to spread the word, that person didn't look like someone who could hold back her words.
As for herself, of course, she has to fill her stomach now.
The doctor did not disappoint Gu Yunjin, and the next morning, before the dim sum in Gu Yunjin's food box was finished, there were rumors in Beijing.
After several passes, in the afternoon, it became the story of "the cousin's beauty was jealous, and the waiter's daughter was ruthless".
Gu Yunjin bit the mung bean crisp and turned his head to look at the dresser.
This "beauty" was made up by the doctor herself, not by her, although, well, she is indeed quite good-looking.
Especially at this age, she looks much better than her half-dead appearance in Lingbei a few days ago!
"Nian Xia," Gu Yunjin called, pointed to the bronze mirror on the platform, and said, "Bring the mirror, I want to take a look." ”
