Chapter 266: Dumb Riddle
After eating something and gaining some strength, Gan Peilin stayed in the Zen Heart Courtyard for two hours.
During this period, Mo Yanqing kept muttering in her ear. What went wrong, who hurt her, and how to do it. She didn't need Gan Peilin to answer, she just talked to herself endlessly.
It made Gan Peilin dizzy and extremely unclean.
And there were many people who came to mourn, and several aunts also accompanied the talk. The temple is even more lively than when my grandmother was there. It's really hard to find a place to hide without people.
Thanks to Shao Chunhua's condolences, she had to talk to Gan Peilin to let her leave such a complicated environment temporarily.
In the flower hall, as soon as the maids served hot tea, Shao Chunhua's tears fell.
"Mrs. Wu must not be sad. If your grandmother sees you like this, she probably won't be at ease. Gan Peilin was just a polite remark. She and Shao Chunhua had such an unpleasant quarrel before, and now it is superfluous to meet. But it's always a matter of face.
"Makes the Grand Governor's wife smile." Shao Chunhua saw that everyone in the room had retreated, so he slowly spoke: "I am sad, because the old lady left suddenly, but also for myself."
"Where do you start?" Gan Peilin didn't know much.
"I ......" Shao Chunhua was a little embarrassed, thought for a while, got up and knelt down towards Gan Peilin.
"Madame, why is that?" Gan Peilin looked at her inexplicably, but he didn't get up to help.
"They all blame me, I once refused to let you enter the Wu Mansion no matter what. At that time, you ...... It's not good in the imperial city. We Ah Wei, it was not easy to get to today, I am selfish, thinking about it for my son, and I don't want him to offend the Jiang Mansion and the Ao family, this is ......"
"Ma'am." Gan Peilin interrupted her: "Either you should make a long story short." I don't really want to hear about the past. ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Shao Chunhua sighed.
Gan Peilin got up to help her.
Shao Chunhua got up with her hand, her eyes were slightly red: "Even today, I don't know how." When Ah Wei came home from Ganfu, he urged me and his father to propose marriage for him. ”
Hearing the word "marriage", Gan Peilin's heart suddenly tightened.
Even she didn't expect such a reaction.
But on the surface, she was calm. "That's a good thing. Why is Madame crying? ”
"He ......" Shao Chunhua's tears couldn't stop falling: "The object he wants us to propose for him is exactly ...... Madam, your husband and sister, Jiang Yin, the eldest lady of Jiang Mansion. ”
"Jiang Yin?" Gan Peilin's heart was pulled again, and the taste was a little indescribable.
This Jiang Yin is the daughter of Jiang Taiwei and others in his early years. It is said that not long after she was born, her mother passed away.
When she was three years old, she was disabled in an accident and her leg fell into disability. Over the years, he has been raised in Jiang's mansion and lived in a simple house. Even the people of the Jiang Mansion rarely see her. Not to mention the people in this imperial city.
Wu Wei was afraid that he didn't even know what Jiang Yin looked like, so he rashly wanted to propose. In this way, he maintained a connection with himself.
Gan Peilin's face is difficult to maintain the calm breeze. She didn't expect Wu Wei to be so stupid. But I don't know whether to stop it or not.
"Peilin." Shao Chunhua took her hand and said with tears in her eyes: "Looking at it like this now, you are not the kind of girl in the rumors at all." You are well-behaved and sensible, filial and benevolent. It's me who has no eyes, it's me who digs my own grave, and I'm sorry for you. Now this fate is my retribution. Can...... But you read that Wu Wei once treated you with sincerity after all, so you can help us and help him. He is now full of such a thought, if we refuse, we are afraid that he will do something out of the ordinary. Ruoken...... He is the champion of the golden branch, how can he marry...... It's been his life's work. ”
"I'm sorry." Gan Peilin withdrew his hand: "Madam, I'm afraid I can't help you."
"Peilin, you're still blaming me, aren't you? I'll kneel down for you, I'll kowtow to you, you can do whatever you want, you must not stand idly by. In this matter, only you can persuade Ah Wei. If you stand idly by, he'll be finished! ”
Gan Peilin still insisted on his attitude: "Madam, I really can't help him."
"You ......" Shao Chunhua was heartbroken by her anger: "How can you be so ruthless!" Even if he has a thousand bad things and ten thousand bad things, he has never been bad to you. Is your heart made of iron? ”
Yanzi heard that the movement inside was wrong, and was afraid that Gan Peilin would suffer a loss, so he pushed the door in tightly.
"I said, this lady, did you come to our Star Picking Tower to splash it? Our lady said that if you can't help, you can't help, I advise you to leave quickly, don't force me to be rude. ”
"Gan Peilin." Shao Chunhua yelled at her: "You have done this to a person who loves you, and your conscience has been eaten by a dog?" Ah Wei originally had a better future, all for you. He almost died, do you know? Isn't it enough that this is already the case? Do you want him to be involved and influenced by you all his life? How can you be so selfish, you are so ruthless. ”
The swallow clenched his fists and almost swung it over.
was held by Gan Peilin's wrist. "Someone, send off."
The little guy outside hurriedly came in, but it was not from Ganfu.
"Madame, go and see. The old man has already taken the young master to Jiang's mansion. ”
"What?" Shao Chunhua's face turned blue in a hurry: "Wu Di, is he crazy?" I'm not letting him stop Ah Wei! ”
couldn't take care of Gan Peilin's side anymore, Shao Chunhua ran out in a panic.
Yanzi was still angry: "Madam, why do you listen to her harsh words. His own son can't manage it himself, but relies on others. This shrew should teach her a lesson. ”
"Grandmother just left, Ganfu can't get into trouble anymore." Gan Peilin sighed slightly: "I'm not for her." It's just that in this case, we will also suffer if we do it. ”
"That's what Madame said." The swallow nodded slightly.
"By the way, Yanzi, I have never heard Jiang Yu mention Jiang Yin. What kind of person is she? Gan Peilin couldn't help but be curious.
"He's a weirdo." Swallow is concise and to the point.
"Weirdos?" Gan Peilin didn't understand.
"Her leg fell crippled and she walked with a limp. So I hate people with sound legs walking in front of her. Even dogs and cats with sound legs will suffer when they appear in front of her...... Alas, forget it, don't mention it. Yanzi said halfway, and didn't bother to go on and said: "Anyway, Mrs. Jiang's strange problems, she inherited them perfectly." The master hates her very much, and she hasn't even seen her in the past few years. ”
"Oh." Gan Peilin nodded slightly. I can't complain that Shao Chunhua is such a proud person, and he is willing to kneel in front of her.
This Jiang Yin is really not a good choice.
Gan Peilin didn't want Wu Wei to have anything to do with the Jiang family.
Shao Chunhua may be short-sighted, just expressing a mother's concern about her son. But look deeper. The emperor has long been unable to tolerate the Jiang Mansion, and he is wary of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion. Wu Wei was protected and supported by the emperor in order to confront these forces one day.
Now, he wants to do the opposite, which is nothing more than a slap in the face of the emperor.
Maybe without anyone else's hands, he has already been destroyed by the emperor!
"I'm a little bored and want to go out for a walk." Gan Peilin glanced out the window and said to Yanzi, "You let Chen Rui come over."
"Yes." The swallow retreated.
Jiang Yu was still in the study, playing against Gan Yuntian.
Lu Yao came over to tell him, saying that Gan Peilin was out of the house, accompanied by Chen Rui and Crispy Core.
This thing was originally a bit strange, and when he left the house at this time, he didn't let the swallows follow. Jiang Yu didn't say a word and continued to play chess.
Lu Yao whispered again: "The father and son of the Wu family went to Jiang Mansion to propose."
"Say what?" Jiang Yu was stunned: "Who do you want?"
Lu Yao said two words softly: "Jiang Yin."
Jiang Yu understood now that Gan Peilin was out of the house at this time, presumably to stop Wu Wei. He was slightly unhappy in his heart, because Wu Wei made such a decision because he wanted to continue to entangle with her.
What made him even more unhappy was that Gan Peilin would care about this matter.
"Father-in-law, my son-in-law should be absent." Jiang Yu raised his eyebrows slightly. "Jiang Fu may have a happy event. Always have to go back and see. ”
"Okay." Gan Yuntian agreed: "It's the same another day."
Jiang Yu bowed slightly, turned around and left the study.
"Is anyone following Madame?" When he went out, Jiang Yu asked Lu Yao directly.
"Yes." Lu Yao said respectfully: "According to your master's orders, there have always been people secretly protecting Madame."
"So far, now it's over." Jiang Yu just wanted to know what she would say to Wu Wei.
At this time, Wu Wei's father and son were already guests in Jiang's Mansion.
Chen Rui had been in contact with Wu Wei's people before, so it was not difficult to find Wu Wei.
But the difficulty is that people have already gone to Jiang's mansion, and it is always difficult to enter the mansion to meet each other.
Gan Peilin sighed faintly: "It seems that I can't stop it if I want to."
"Miss, don't blame the minions for being talkative." Chen Rui also thinks about her. "All the way out of the house, I always feel like someone is secretly watching us. Apparently the Metropolitan Governor has assigned a secret sentry to protect you. Today, your every move is under the control of the Grand Governor. I'm afraid it's not good to come and stop this matter rashly. What's more, as the old saying goes, it's going to rain and the mother wants to get married, and she can't stop it. The two elders of the Wu Mansion can't stop Wu Gongzi, and we may not be able to. ”
"That's right." Gan Peilin didn't know why he came here. "Let's go to Xinghualou. It's been a long time since I've eaten a side dish there. ”
"Yes." Chen Rui drove directly to Xinghualou, and the road he took was smooth, and he didn't go around in circles.
When Gan Peilin entered the box of Xinghua Building, Jiang Yu was already sitting there waiting.
"Why is the husband here?" Gan Peilin was slightly surprised when he saw him and the table full of dishes.
"Knowingly asked." Jiang Yu's face was a little unhappy.
Gan Peilin walked up to him and sat down by himself: "I haven't moved yet, but you are angry first." You let people follow me, is it protection, or is it not at ease? ”
Jiang Yu looked at her sideways: "You temporarily changed your route because you knew that someone was protecting?"
"So what are you worried about?" Gan Peilin asked: "They are all husband and wife, why bother playing dumb riddles!"
