Chapter 338: Small Surprise

After all, she is a stepwife, and the Great Sima Mansion did not give Mo Yanqing much decency.

The funeral was in a hurry, and it only came and went for three days.

In the past three days, Gan Peilin has been accompanying Gan Jilu. didn't say anything comforting, just quietly accompanied.

However, Gan Wanyun only returned to the palace after lunch on the first day, and did not let anyone send a word.

It wasn't until the early morning of the fourth day that the carriage from the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion came to pick up Gan Peilin back to the house, and Chen Rui came to pick him up in person.

Gan Peilin faintly felt that there was something going on in the house and told him to wait a moment. After saying hello to Gan Yuntian, he went directly to see Wang Qingchan.

"What's wrong with the eldest lady?" At that time, Wang Qingchan was teaching Gan Yawen to plan the plate. Seeing Gan Peilin come in, she couldn't help but be surprised.

"It's hard for the fifth aunt to be interested." Gan Peilin said lukewarmly: "I taught Ya Wenli the skills of the family so early." ”

"Oh, don't get me wrong, Miss." Wang Qingchan hurriedly smiled: "Yawen likes abacus, I just feel bored in my heart, and I don't know what to do, so I took an abacus and taught her to use it." ”

"Big sister." Gan Yawen was still afraid of Gan Peilin as always, got up and saluted, and ran out of the room with a smoke.

"Ya...... Yawen ...... "Wang Qingchan didn't stop her, so she couldn't help but laugh: "This child is still as naughty as ever." Let the eldest lady smile. ”

"Yawen is so young, only eight or nine years old, and she is afraid of me like a tiger. It shows that the fifth aunt and Mrs. tell her a lot about me on weekdays. Gan Peilin raised his chin slightly, looked at Wang Qingchan, who was a little flustered, and said: "Actually, I am already married, and the affairs of Ganfu have nothing to do with me." It's just that, Mrs. Fifth Aunt, are you too anxious? ”

"What do you mean by that?" Wang Qingchan smiled unnaturally, just to hide the panic in her heart.

"You remove the guards near the mourning hall and even in the backyard, and let the guards outside the gate of the mansion be used to welcome the guests who come to mourn. Second, help the house slaves dispatch the carriage so that the alley will not be too crowded. The three rules are just to create an opportunity for Gan Puyang to assassinate, isn't it? ”

"Miss, you must have misunderstood." Wang Qingchan hurriedly said: "Actually, things are not what you think. I was just afraid that it would be unsafe, so I deliberately let the guards out of the house to greet me. After all, the Great Sima Mansion is in full swing, and there are many guests who come to mourn. If you are crowded in the alley, and even the carriage cannot enter and exit normally, it will not make people watch a joke. As for the matter of the eldest young master, I really don't know. Are you mistaken? ”

Gan Peilin took a step forward and looked at her with warm eyes: "Originally, it was understandable that you withdrew the guards. But if you want people to know, you can't do it unless you do it. Gan Puyang once secretly returned to the Great Sima Mansion, but he never saw his father, let alone Gan Jilu. must have met the person who secretly colluded with him, if that person didn't have the intention of helping him, how could he dare to take such a big risk? ”

Wang Qingchan's eyes turned red in an instant: "Miss, you suspect the concubine for such a plain reason, the concubine is really wronged." ”

"Suspicion of you for no reason?" Gan Peilin sighed faintly: "On the day Gan Puyang stabbed me, he had injuries on his body. Presumably he escaped from exile and fought with the pursuing generals. Coincidentally, you drugged him. Originally, the medicine was nothing special, but it was ......."

Gan Peilin didn't say any more, walked to Wang Qingchan's dresser, and opened a brocade box.

Inside the brocade box, there are two enamel bowls. One is a gold sore ointment, and the other is an excellent incense powder.

"You incense powder, I remember that when you entered the house, my father specially found it from outside. It's called soft incense, and it's not often seen in the imperial city. The main reason is that this kind of incense is cumbersome to make, but it uses ordinary flowers. People with a lot of status can't look down on it, and those who don't have an identity can't afford it. And the aroma is too strong, and most people don't like it very much. In addition to the gold sore ointment, Gan Puyang also has this fragrance. Mrs. Fifth Aunt, you were too careless. ”

Gan Peilin stared at Wang Qingchan, and his tone was slightly cold: "Maybe you think Yawen is a daughter, maybe she won't be able to take care of you when she gets married in the future." Perhaps, you want to become the third lady of Ganfu, and it is really not enough to rely on the help of a daughter. Gan Puyang is the son of the old man in the end. After I left, in order to keep Yu Ze from hindering your ascension, you actually persuaded your father to send him to a distant town, his maternal grandparents' house to study. It seems that you not only want to help Gan Puyang get rid of me, but you also want to help him regain the identity of Gan Fu's son-in-law. ”

"Just a little aroma can be used as evidence?" Wang Qingchan changed her weak appearance in the past, and there was a coolness on her angry face: "If the eldest lady thinks this is okay, just go to the master to sue me, if it doesn't work, you can go to the government to sue me." But if I am not convicted of an ironclad crime, I will surely seek justice for myself. Wang Qingchan got up and straightened her stomach towards Gan Peilin: "I am already pregnant, and I have been three months old." Although I don't show much affection, the imperial doctor said that I have a son in my womb. If there is anything wrong with this child, the old man will definitely not be happy. When the time comes, I will trouble the eldest lady to explain to him personally. ”

"Oops!" Gan Peilin sighed and couldn't help laughing: "I missed it." It seems that you never thought of helping Gan Puyang, but it was a strategy to kill two birds with one stone. ”

With that, she turned and left.

Wang Qingchan is still hypocritical: "Miss, go slowly, I won't send it." ”

"Miss, do you want to ......" Crispy Core frowned, and wanted to say something but swallowed it.

"No, you don't." Gan Peilin raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Yes." Crispy Xin sighed, and then said slowly: "The fifth aunt's body has always been thin, and it is not the first time that she has been pregnant, but the first two times did not take four months...... This time, she didn't know the good fortune and misfortune, but she was embarrassed to announce that she was pregnant with a male fetus. ”

"Whatever she wants." Gan Peilin has always been reluctant to attack his young son. So this time, she didn't want to pursue Wang Qingchan.

"But if it weren't for the effective protection, Gan Puyang, that madman, would have done everything, and the slave would really pinch a cold sweat for the eldest lady." Crispcore is still indignant.

"Don't waste your spirit on someone who doesn't deserve it." Gan Peilin said with warm eyes: "These things are like this, after all, they have left the Gan Mansion and let my father make his own choice." ”

got into the carriage, and Liulan and Yanzi sat down with Gan Peilin. Instead, let Crispy Core and Chen Rui drive to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

Lifting the sedan curtain, Liulan looked at the figure of the two of them side by side, and couldn't help but hook the corners of her lips: "Miss, look." ”

Gan Peilin couldn't help but smile and nodded.

At this time, Crisp Core approached Chen Rui's side and listened to what he said.

Because Chen Rui's voice was relatively small, the people in the car didn't hear it, and they were flirting and scolding.

"It's a little bit of a couple." Rulan lowered the curtain and giggled.

"When, it'll be your turn." Gan Peilin pursed his lips: "Marry you all one by one, and I will have peace of mind." ”

"The slave and the master signed a contract of life and death." Yanzi raised her chin slightly, and said seriously: "The slave will never leave the master and the lady in this life." Madame, don't bother with the slaves. Not only slaves, but also all of Heiyan. ”

"......" said that, but a woman should have a home in her life.

Gan Peilin didn't say this, because she wasn't sure if she had such a destination. Mother didn't have it anyway.

Ganfu has never been a good place to be. A father is never a good companion.

The carriage stopped outside the gate of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and when Crispy Core helped Gan Peilin get out of the car, his face was a little bad.

"What's wrong?" Gan Peilin sensed that something was wrong at a glance, and frowned and asked.

"Miss......" Crispy Core thought for a while, and still said: "You have to take precautions." ”

"What's the matter?" Liulan couldn't help but be interested: "You should say it quickly, don't talk about it." ”

"The ...... that has never appeared in Gan Province"

"Madame is back." A clear and bright female voice interrupted the crispy core's words.

The crowd looked up.

Mo Chuxue was walking over here with a boxwood tray. "Madame has worked hard along the way. There is flower tea prepared in the first snow, please taste it. ”

"Mo Chuxue?" Liulan looked at her in surprise: "Why are you here?" Or call the eldest lady and the lady? ”

"Chu Xue is now Princess Zhen's personal maid. Serve with the princess in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. Mo Chuxue bent her knee at Gan Peilin: "So Chuxue naturally has to call the eldest sister Mrs." What's more, the big sister has always disliked Chu Xue calling you sister. It's good that you don't have to worry about these things in the future. ”

Gan Peilin couldn't help but sigh: "The ghost is not gone." ”

Madame laughed. Mo Chuxue knew what she meant, but she smiled: "Chuxue, it's just thanks to Princess Zhen's blessing that she can have something to eat in this Metropolitan Governor's Mansion." ”

"Your aunt passed away, and you didn't even go to mourn for such a big thing." Gan Peilin's eyes were cold: "But I deliberately mixed in when I was not in the house." Just to see my surprised expression now, right? Unfortunately, I have nothing to be surprised at. From the day you came to the Great Sima Mansion, the grievances between you and me were doomed. ”

"Madame's words are too profound for Chu Xue to understand." Mo Chuxue sent the flower tea to Gan Peilin.

Gan Peilin didn't prepare to drink, but walked forward on his own.

"Madame doesn't like flower tea, I'll prepare something else for you in the first snow." Mo Chuxue stood in place, watching her slowly leave.

"No need." Gan Peilin said in a cold voice.

"You, serve your own master well. Our lady doesn't need you to bother. Crispy Core took a sip: "What is it?" The relatives who raised her since she was a child passed away, and she didn't even go to mourn, wolf-hearted dogs. ”

Liulan didn't give Mo Chuxue a good look, and left with Gan Peilin.

Only the swallow stood in place, silently looking at Mo Chuxue.

"What are you looking at?" Mo Chuxue asked curiously.

"I'm looking at the difference between people and livestock." Yanzi shook his head slightly: "When I see you, I understand everything." ”

Mo Chuxue couldn't help laughing: "No matter how neat your mouth is, what's the use?" Your words won't give me a piece of meat less. It is better to spare some strength and serve your master well. ”

After speaking, she casually poured the flower tea on the ground: "I'll assume that your wife has already drunk some of it." ”

The swallow was angry, and took out a silver bullet from his arms.

Strangely, Mo Chuxue deftly avoided it and hurried away.

"This woman ......" Swallow looked at her back, uneasy in her heart: "It's so strange......"

Mrs. Yu Xiang wants to be widowed and updated as soon as possible
