Chapter 64: The Long Way (23)
You're a threat to me! Zhong Xin muttered a bitter sigh, "You can stay in peace, after all, the man of the Zhong family is not dead, and it is not your turn to come out of this." He sneered a few times, "Anyway, I'm the most useless person in this mansion, it's better for me to lose this face than for you, a young lady with golden branches and jade leaves, to show up." He didn't look at Zhong Qi anymore, turned around and left.
In the past, although he was a bastard, he was indeed very good to Zhong Qi. Maybe because of the inferiority complex in his heart, his kindness to Zhong Qi is even more refined than others. But now he finally understands that this mansion is indeed as he has always thought in his heart, and even if he uses his heart, no one will look up to him.
After turning around, he finally stopped at the door of his yard. The courtyard was quiet, and there was no sound. He stood outside the courtyard gate in a daze, and when he stretched out his hand to push the door open, he suddenly retracted it. Jen'er's eyes that saw through everything flashed in his mind. In such a situation, he can lose his temper in front of anyone, but after all, he wants to maintain the little dignity left in front of his mother. He stood outside for a long time, and finally quietly turned around and walked out. When he walked outside the gate, he looked back at the quaint and atmospheric words "Zhongfu" at the gate, as if his eyes were suddenly burned by the sun, he wiped his eyes violently, and walked away without looking back.
Grandma Zhen Er watched Zhong Xin stand for a long time at the window, and then turned to leave. Her face was a little pale, her eyes were red, and finally after Zhong Xin turned to leave, the tears that had accumulated in her eyes fell suddenly.
"Is the second grandmother really not going to invite the second master back? The second master was really sad to look like that just now. The maid said cautiously on the side,
"No need," Grandma Zhen wiped her eyes, "let him go, you guys will rot in your hearts about what happened just now." When the second master comes back, everything will be talked to him as usual. ”
"Then should we go and find Madame, you are also her niece, Madame......"
"This was originally caused by the uncle, and now the second master has come forward to find someone, but I'm afraid that it will be too late for my mother-in-law to be happy. What's more......" Grandma Zhen paused, "My niece is just a good-sounding flower head, just to bluff outsiders." Don't say it's an uncle, I'm afraid it's not even the face-saving housekeeper in the mother-in-law's room. Otherwise, how could my mother-in-law be willing to match me with the second master she didn't look down on. ”
"Second grandmother." The maid also had red eyes, "Don't be sad, at least the second master has you in his heart." ”
"yes, at least he still has me in his heart. Otherwise, if I don't have this support, what will I do for a living? Grandma Zhen wiped her tears, blinked her eyes, and ordered, "Go and get me some water, I want to clean my face." Prepare another set of clothes to change later. ”
"Is the second grandmother going out?"
"The second master doesn't want me to follow him in a hurry, but I am one with him as a husband and wife, how can I be alone." She said with a slight smile, "I'll go to the third grandmother, now the third master has the blue eyes of the old lady, and I have to understand how the wind in the house is going to blow." ”
"Yes, the slave and maid will go and prepare it at once. When the little maid heard her mention Grandma Qiusan, she smiled with tears in her eyes: "The third grandmother is a good person and will definitely help you." ”
A winter rain finally fell in the evening. It's not big, but it's cold enough. Gu Jin untied the somewhat wet cloak and handed it to the little guy who followed behind, "Wait outside, and let someone prepare a warm pot and send it up." ”
"Yes, second son, the slave will go and let people prepare." The little servant hurriedly took the cloak and retreated a few steps, shook the rain on it in the open place and hung it on the shelf, then took the door and turned around to go out to prepare what the master wanted to eat.
Zhong Xin sat in the bright hall and didn't let people make a stove. In this mansion, Gu Jin doesn't come often, so naturally he won't burn any earth dragons.
It was rainy outside, the windows were wide open, and the wind blew in from all directions, and Gu Jin was blown cold as soon as he opened the bead curtain and went in.
He rubbed his hands a few times, took a sip of the heater in the palm of his hand, and found that it didn't work.
There were already several empty wine jars in the room, and Zhong Xin had another one in his hand.
Gu Jin frowned and walked over and bent down to snatch out the jar, let it go, got up and closed the windows on all sides, and only after lighting the candlesticks everywhere did he feel that the miserable atmosphere in the room was a little better.
He went to the door and asked for two lighted stoves to be brought in, and the people did not dare to look much at the situation in the house, but quickly finished the matter with their hands and feet, and hurried out again.
Gu Jin stretched out his hand to warm up, and then sat down on the wooden base futon opposite Zhong Xin. "Tell me, what's wrong."
Zhong Xin hugged the wine jar, sneered twice, and looked up at Gu Jin with drunken eyes. "Am I useless, Ah Jin." He staggered to the side, about to get the jar of wine nearby. "No, I'm a waste, how can I still ask you, doesn't this make you embarrassed?"
Gu Jin sighed and pressed Zhong Xin's arm. "Got into a conflict with your family? I have come to answer your request. Stop drinking, tell me about it. ”
Zhong Xin looked at him in a daze, and the moment he met Gu Jin's eyes, all the emotions that had been suppressed all day suddenly surged up together. He instantly burst into tears, "Ah Jin, why are you so good. I'm such a bad person, how can I be your friend. I'm here today...... I'm here to ...... today," he said for a long time, but he never said the rest. However, even so, he didn't dare to touch Gu Jin's hand, even if he drank like a fool, he still remembered his friend's taboo.
Gu Jin sighed and patted the other party's shoulder, who can say that Zhong Xin is a fool. He really didn't have a good impression of the Zhong family, especially in the matter of his sister-in-law, which added countless bad feelings.
A family wants to use the reputation of a woman to achieve its own ends. No matter what the position is, it is a very inferior means. But he couldn't extend this bad feeling to his friend. Zhong Xin may have a lot of shortcomings, but he doesn't have some inferior problems in the Zhong family. He treats his friends sincerely and freely, and can stick a knife in his friends anytime and anywhere. I haven't used the identity of the Zhong family to do anything hurtful, at most it's a little stubborn. But this is not a problem at all in Gu Jin's eyes, compared to those so-called elite children in the Southern Regions, who are smart and capable in the eyes of outsiders, but actually use their own family status to do evil, Zhong Xin, a person who can even be regarded as a singer and dancer on an equal footing, is already very good.
As soon as he received the news from Zhuangzi today, he knew what Zhong Xin was looking for him for. Of course, he can ignore it, or even refuse it bluntly. He believed that with Zhong Xin's character, he would definitely not say anything, let alone blame him for it. But he couldn't refuse, because he recalled it seriously and found that this was the first time Zhong Xin asked him for help.
He has been in a cloudy mood in the past few years, and to be honest, he has actually troubled a lot of people around him. What's more, although his personality is gentle and elegant in the eyes of outsiders, in fact, everyone close to him knows that he is actually a very withdrawn person. And at this point, neither Zhong Xin nor Lou Qiang have ever said anything about it, and have been adjusting their habits to match his steps.
When he asked his eldest brother for favors, he was actually a little weak-hearted, after all, it was about his sister-in-law. A girl who marries them all the way to marry is unfamiliar with her life and is bullied by outsiders. And not only did he not help to get angry, but he had to intercede for this person who bullied her, which was probably unbearable for many people.
So in front of his sister-in-law, he said his request.
Fortunately, the sister-in-law understood his mood very well and didn't ask him anything, just let him go and deal with this matter. Although the eldest brother was not happy, he didn't say anything in the end.
Compared with Zhong Xin, he is so lucky.
He moved the wine jar next to Zhong Xin, and then helped the other party to sit upright. "Ah Xin, don't worry, my eldest brother will go to see your grandfather, although this matter is serious, but it will only teach your eldest brother a lesson. This is what he will definitely get, whether it is my eldest brother or the fifth son of the Wei family, it is impossible to spare him in this matter. Everything else will be decided after the eldest brother consults with the prince. ”
