"Mother!" Gongsun Wan burst into tears, and knelt down in front of the old lady Gongsun.

Seeing her like this, the old lady Gongsun didn't say much, and only Gongsun Wanzhen was crying at a loss in the room.

The autumn sky is blue and vast, but the sun on the edge of the sky is not as light and lofty as usual, but half-covered and half-hidden on the edge of the light clouds, bright and almost demonic. The light penetrated through the cracks in the doors and windows, illuminating the flying dust that was flying around Gongsun Wanzhen without roots and no evidence, showing that she was even more lonely and helpless.

After a long time, the old lady Gongsun sighed again and said, "Don't worry, since I have promoted her, I have recognized this matter." ”

Gongsun Wanzhen raised his head suddenly: "Mother, you?" Do you think this is possible? ”

"Originally, this family affair was favored by the clan, but the candidate has not been decided." Mrs. Gongsun muttered, "I want to marry someone like that...... Not the average woman is up to the task. Beauty, intelligence, means, eyesight...... Indispensable. Thinking about the few school-age ladies of our Gongsun family, there is always something missing. Originally, the four girls were the most suitable, but they were too competitive. ”

Gongsun Wanzhen finally put away her sorrow when she heard this, and hoped: "Then what does my mother think is the chance that this matter can be done?" ”

"I don't know...... It also depends on the meaning of the Nangong family. If the news you have heard is true, and the Mu family really has something to do with the Nangong family, then ...... Things may be a lot more complicated. ”

Gongsun Wan was really taken aback and asked, "Mother means that the Mu family will use this relationship to fight for this family business?" ”

The Nangong clan rose too fast, and before others could figure out the roots, they quickly infiltrated Yasukuni, and they were involved in deep and shallow interests with the major families, which made people have to get closer to each other. But to be honest, it is because the clans have not yet figured out the details of the Su clan at this time, and they are still testing each other. So this kind of thing is no different from gambling. Whether the outcome will be good or bad is unknown.

If it's good, it's all right. If it is not good, the person who married in the past is destined to be abandoned by the family.

So no matter how you look at it, Gongsun Lan is the best choice. First, a talented and beautiful girl who was obtained out of thin air, even if she lost, the Gongsun family did not lose. Second, if they win, the Gongsun family will also have the opportunity to make up for Gongsun Lan's emotional shortcomings, so that the other party can establish an inseparable connection with the Gongsun family.

Old Madam Gongsun muttered: "Mu Chen turned his face to you at this time and threatened to marry a woman and come back to be a flat wife, which may not have made you dispel this idea, because your behavior this time has created a conflict of interest with his family." ”

Although Gongsun Wanzhen doesn't have a delicate heart, she is not stupid, and she immediately understood: "Mother is saying that it is true that Mu Chen complains that I am worried about the past." , but he asked me to cut off this idea, also to prevent me from clashing with the Mu family and falling into a bad situation again......"

"You're finally going to figure it out...... Gongsun Lan's matter, you have to let go! The old lady Gongsun looked at the change in her daughter's expression and said, "However, you don't have to worry, she is also my granddaughter." ”

Gongsun Wanzhen's expression was complicated, but she could only nod. Because as the eldest daughter of the Gongsun family, as the head of the husband's family, and as the mother of the Mu family's children, she can't do whatever she wants. More than ten years ago, she was willful, in exchange for the death of her beloved and the separation of her own flesh and blood. Nowadays, it is impossible to speak of such courage.

The interests of the family are always on the line!

"Yes, my daughter understands."

In the Yujiao Pavilion, Gongsun Mu was full of frost, and the smart and delicate in front of the old lady was gone.

Seeing the appearance of her master, she knew that she was in a bad mood because of the new Fifth Lady, so she couldn't help but glance through the window in the direction of Yunluo Courtyard. Rui Zhu gently touched her with her elbow, signaling her not to feel uncomfortable. Woad quickly lowered her head, pretending not to know anything.

"What do you mean by grandmother?"

"Ah......h

Gongsun Mu's willow eyebrows immediately raised, glared at her and sneered: "What are you doing, stupid?" ”

Rui Zhu saw that she was angry, and hurriedly said: "Miss, you grew up in the palm of your hand by the old lady, why bother to fight because of an outsider." She is new to the house, and if she wants to gain a foothold in our house, how can it be so easy? ”

Xianglan also came to his mind at this time, knowing that his master was thoughtful, so he hurriedly accosted: "Yes, Miss, in our house, we are not considered concubines, and none of the ladies from each house can compare to you, what are you afraid of?" ”

"Hmph, you know what." Gongsun Mu listened to the maid's words and disagreed, and said in a deep voice: "From the time she lived in my aunt's former Yunluo courtyard, I knew that my grandmother must be holding her!" Sure enough, as soon as she showed her face, she became the fifth lady of our family. ”

The two girls glanced at each other, they didn't expect Gongsun Mu to be so cautious, Rui Zhu thought for a while and said: "Although the old lady has promoted the fifth lady, but her relationship with our house is very shallow, how can there be a closeness who was born to grow up beside the old lady?" The slave maid thinks that it is because of the relationship between the eldest aunt and grandmother......"

"Grandmother has ever been emotional, people like ours, everything is in the interests of the family, who comes early, who comes late, may not be of much use. The key is to see if the person is useful. Even if a child born to a grandmother is as stupid as a pig, how much can he be cared for, he naturally has to pay more attention to others. If it weren't for the fact that the eldest uncle was still willing to marry the eldest aunt, then the aunt would never be as beautiful as she is today. ”

Xiang Lan said: "Even so, with Miss's character and intelligence, there is no need to worry too much. ”

Gongsun Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "Gongsun Lan's previous affairs in Da'an, you have also heard a few words sporadically, don't you know how powerful she is?" ”

Rui Zhu was surprised: "Could it be that it's all true?" Even if Da'an is just a small country, how can she, a woman, influence the changes in the court? ”

"Although there are many things on this Gongsun Lan that cannot be identified, none of them are important. Because a person who has no secrets is either a fool or a useless person. Therefore, the family will not care if she has secrets, but will only care if her skills are useful to the family! ”

Mrs. Gongsun often said that people who don't have secrets can't live long, so keep your mouth shut and don't let people see through you. If people can see the bottom at a glance, then they are not far from failure. Therefore, Gongsun Mu thinks that sometimes making a fuss is not necessarily a bad thing, and only by infinitely magnifying the seriousness of the matter can you know how much impact this matter has on you.

The first time she saw Gongsun Lan, she realized that the other party was definitely a strong opponent, so she couldn't take it lightly, at least she had to know herself and her opponent.

"I must now find out if my grandmother has any other purpose in exalting her like this, and if she has already made any decisions!" Gongsun Mu looked at Xianglan and asked, "Aunt went back?" What's so special about it? ”

Shean replied, "Yes, I've already gone back." It is said that although the aunt and grandmother looked depressed when they left, their steps were much lighter than when they came. ”

Gongsun Mu was silent for a long time when he heard this, and suddenly got up and said, "Change clothes for me, I'm going to meet this fifth sister." ”

……

Hearing that the fourth lady in the house was coming, Twilight Ye was startled, turned to look at Gongsun Lan, and said: "The slave maid has inquired, this fourth lady is the most favored one in the house, and everyone mentions her with a look of awe and admiration. She came to us at this time, she must have come to test the depth of the girl. ”

Of course, Gongsun Lan knew what the other party was here for, but there was no need for him to hide at all. She said, "Don't think about it, let's arrange it first." ”

"Yes, girl."

Twilight promised to go down, but Gongsun Lan suddenly stopped her and said, "In the future, everything in daily life must be in accordance with the rules of Yasukuni." ”

Twilight paused and hurriedly said, "Yes, Miss." ”

Gongsun Lan went out to greet him, and when he turned the corridor, he saw a figure with an unscrupulous posture walking towards him. The girl's black hair like a waterfall was loosely tied behind her, and her sideburns were simply hairpinned with fine jade tassels like snow, which gently hung down on her shoulders. The eyebrows are like the quiet night sky and the spring mountain, and the eyes are like falling stars. Walking like a person in a picture, the surrounding scenery is turned into a foil, full of charming style.

Gongsun Mu, the fourth lady from the long house, just passed last year, and her figure was slender and tall, not a few points shorter than Gongsun Lan, who practiced martial arts every day. Such a smart and beautiful girl is indeed rare. is worthy of being the most outstanding daughter of the Gongsun family.

"Fifth sister!" Gongsun Mu raised his eyes and saw Gongsun Lan coming over, and immediately walked a few steps quickly to the front of the mountain, with a happy and close smile on his face, and said: "I just saw you in a hurry, and I didn't have a chance to say a few close words to you, so I couldn't help but come here to see you." You don't want to be annoyed by your sister. ”

Gongsun Lan smiled and said, "Where is the fourth sister, I can't ask for it." ”

The two of them sat down in the pavilion, and Twilight had already placed all kinds of refreshments on the stone table, and there were several things that were famous in Kyoto, from east to west, north and south, and a few things that were made by the chef with her heart. The eldest lady Xue specially ordered someone to send it over, and said that she didn't know Gongsun Lan's taste, so she deliberately sent some of everything, and she felt that she liked something, so she told her subordinates.

Gongsun Mu's eyes swept away, and he knew whose handiwork, the eldest lady sat firmly in the position of the housewife in Gongsun's mansion, and her eyesight was not bad, but she also treated Gongsun Lan so carefully, and she felt more and more that the enemy was current.

She said: "I don't know if my sister is new to the house, what kind of food she may eat in the house?" If it's not to your taste, you can't settle for it. If you burn your body, it's not a trivial matter. ”
