Chapter 23: Reluctance to Compromise
Some people are beautiful, some people are smart, and some people are rich, but none of them can compare to one thing, and that is luck. Guiguan is a beautiful person and a smart person, but what he lacks in his life is luck, so he is always far from happiness, but he is like a small grass pressed by a big stone, he has never admitted defeat, and has been unyielding towards the direction of the sun for immortality, always hoping to bathe in the sun one day.
As long as there is the slightest chance, he will not give up.
He was threatening Gu Xiyan.
If you don't let him go, when the people come, he will say that he has a personal relationship with the second girl of the Gu family, and he wants to die, and everyone will die together.
Gu Xiyan would be scared if she was really a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl. She smiled softly, her eyes as cold as the ice edge in the cold winter: "Help me for a hundred years, you still have to think of other ways!" ”
Yes, after a hundred years of calling people, what will you say in front of others? Even a stupid person knows the answer, let alone a smart person like Guiguan.
His whole body stiffened, and his face was ashen.
Gu Xiyan is no better than him.
I just felt that Guiguan's methods were too ruthless, and I was a little afraid that he would do something to hurt himself, and now that he was like this, could he really strangle him to death. It's the first time I've grown up to fight with someone...... What to do? After a long time, when the real person came, wouldn't he and Guiguan want to eat the dog and let the hundred years benefit in vain...... What's going on? Two people who want to help people are facing each other here......
Cold sweat broke out on Guiguan's forehead, not only because of the pain under his body, but also because of the unknown fear of what was about to happen.
I can't just break things like that...... How many years of waiting, how many years of anticipation, how many years of enduring humiliation, but because of a stupid self-righteousness, I gave up my efforts...... No, no, no, it can't be like this...... His mind spun quickly, and he blurted out: "I heard my brothers who used to be on an errand in Rongyue Zhai say that you also received personal guidance from him when you were a child......"
Gu Xiyan's face turned pale all of a sudden, and the belt around her hand couldn't help but tighten, which made Guiguan feel relieved, he couldn't help but raise his head, just in time to clearly see Gu Xiyan sitting on the edge of the bed, her quiet face like a white pear blossom rose with a sense of anger, and the green tendons on her sideburns were clearly visible.
Damn Master Gu, he just guessed that he liked boys at first, but now it seems that he is a pedophile at all, no, he is even dirtier than a pedophile, even his own daughter...... Could this be the most fundamental reason why Gu Chaorong wanted to send Gu Xiyan away? If this is the case, then Gu Chaorong should know Master Gu...... For a while, Gu Xiyan's heart was in turmoil, and the belt around his hand couldn't help but tighten tighter.
Gu Xiyan's anger and the pain in his neck made a white light flash in Gui Guan's mind, illuminating his chaotic thinking. He gasped and said in a hoarse voice: "Second girl, I, like you, am also a poor person...... When he was nine years old, he bought him into the house...... No matter what he did to me, I was docile and easy-going, as long as he was willing to tell me how to read and to teach me...... He promised me that in another year, he would make me natural, and I might use the money I had saved to redeem myself, or I could take the imperial examination and find a career...... Second girl, I really don't want to hurt you...... I was confused just now. The girl said that with good intentions, but I was too scared to hear it...... Second girl, I know you don't want to come back, and you don't want to enter the palace, we're all the same......"
Gu Xiyan listened to Gui Guan's words and gradually calmed down.
This is a step, and now only by making peace with Guiguan can we deal with the same enemy for a hundred years.
That's the real crisis!
Gradually, she loosened the belt from her hand.
Guiguan continued, as if he was afraid that she would regret it: "Second girl, that Deacon Ding is not a good person, don't listen to his ......"
Gu Xiyan's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"I didn't lie to you." Guiguan hurriedly promised, "He was brought by his wife's mother's family, but he helped the master, helped the master to train ......us, and trained us."
Everyone has secrets that they don't want people to know, as long as there is no obstacle to survival, Gu Xiyan will usually be very tolerant of each other. Guiguan's words reminded her of what she said when she met Xiao Gu Xiyan in the camphor forest, "Deacon Ding said that if he was disobedient, let me sell them all", and she had a new evaluation of this person's character in her heart. Her heart moved, and she asked Guiguan, "What else do you know?" ”
Guiguan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was on the right path, and said in a calm tone as much as possible: "I heard what the girl and Deacon Ding said in the woods that day, but Deacon Ding didn't tell the truth to the girl. ”
Gu Xiyan let out a very cold "oh", but in his heart he thought of the foot girl who waved towards the sky in the woods that day.
Who is there to cheat?
Guiguan and Huanling are still a hundred years old......
Gui Guan secretly looked at Gu Xiyan's expression, seeing that she was not listening to this matter very carefully, and couldn't help but be secretly anxious in his heart. The time is too precious now, if she doesn't come up with something that interests her and put herself quickly, when the time comes a hundred years, no matter what you say, her life will not be easy...... He said hurriedly: "The fifth son of the emperor has not married, but he and Fang Shaoying have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the two families have long had an agreement, and choosing a concubine is just a situation......"
"Oh!" Gu Xiyan said coldly, "How do you know? ”
Guiguan hurriedly said: "Who in Shengjing doesn't know ......" Before he could speak, he saw Gu Xiyan looking at him with a smile. He was anxious: he had said the wrong thing! If everyone in Shengjing knew about it, what use would his news be......
Gu Xiyan also knew that time was pressing, and now was not the time to talk. She looked at Guiguan carefully.
What to do? I really don't have the heart and guts to kill......
Gui Guan saw Gu Xiyan squinting his eyes and looking at himself, a hesitant light flashed in his eyes, his heart moved, and he suddenly took off a silver bracelet on his wrist and handed it to Gu Xiyan: "Second girl, this is the only relic left to me by my mother, I will put it at your ...... time"
Of course, Gu Xiyan wouldn't believe his words, but now that's the only way.
She took the bracelet and retied the belt around Guiguan's neck and tied it back to her pants.
Gui Guan touched his neck and gasped for breath, but at the same time peeked at Gu Xiyan. Seeing her tie her belt in front of her like that, I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.
This woman is really practical and can do everything.
Thinking like this in my head, I faintly felt a feeling of pity in my heart.
Isn't he such a person, in order to survive, he will do anything......
Gu Xiyan fastened his trouser belt, saw that Gui Guan was still sitting on the couch, and gently kicked him: "Does it hurt you there......
It really hurts, but can Gui Guan say this in front of a girl who is not much different from himself?
He blushed and whispered, "It's not ......"
"Then you don't want to leave quickly!" Gu Xiyan urged him, "No matter what others say, let's treat it as if nothing happened today." I'm sleeping, and as for your part, you figure it out yourself......"
The moonlight shone on Gu Xiyan's face, and she regained her quiet look like a white pear blossom, and the corners of her mouth seemed to be smiling all the time when she spoke, giving people a sweet, warm, and soft feeling.
Guiguan shuddered.
This woman, too, too ...... Double-faced......
Guiguan nodded, and ran away as if he was being chased by a ghost.
Gu Xiyan sighed, turned around and went to clean up the wardrobe that had been turned over for a hundred years.
How can someone be so stupid as to steal things instead of gold and silver ornaments, but to steal clothes......
This is completely a misunderstanding of Gu Xiyan.
The women who have seen it for a hundred years usually hide their things under the suitcase, and who would put the valuable jewelry on the mirror table like Gu Xiyan......
Baibai's movements were a little slow, and no one came when Gu Xiyan packed up her things, she lay on the bed and didn't dare to sleep, feeling that this inner courtyard was too unsafe, as if anyone could come in...... She remembered the masked woman with a sword on her back that day she had seen in Rongyuezhai...... It's really troublesome, cross over, why let her cross into such a complex environment, can't she be a good lady? In the past, there were classmates who sighed there, "What do I have in my family, it's just that I have money", and I thought it was really fake at the time, but now it seems that everyone has their own troubles. Like yourself now, aren't you afraid of losing your life even if you sleep......
She was here in a daze for a long time before there was movement outside.
Gu Xiyan tiptoed through a crack in the window to peep, and it turned out to be Duan Niang and they came back from the Lantern Festival! Gu Xiyan covered the quilt and chuckled.
Both she and Guiguan overestimated the courage of a hundred years. After doing it for a long time, this guy just ran away!
Gu Xiyan had the opportunity to look at the bracelet that Gui Guan left her.
The bracelet is silver, about one wide, with a pattern carved in the hollow, as if it is carved with bats, and there are things like Shouzi, which is not heavy in the hand, and should be made of silver. That is, an ordinary silver bracelet.
Gu Xiyan casually put it on his wrist, the size was just right.
She played with it for a while, then took it off her hand and stuffed it under the pillow, and fell asleep upside down, remembering in her heart that she didn't know if she would go to Cui Baoyi's class tomorrow? If he behaves very poorly, will it arouse Duanniang's suspicions...... Also, when he meets Guiguan again, he really has to have a good talk, how can he see that he is unwilling to enter the palace.
Now that he is in this deeply surprised compound, the news is blocked, I am afraid that if he is sold by Master Gu, he will give him a count of silver......
There was the sound of rustling dresses outside, and there was also the occasional excited conversation between Hengyue and them, Gu Xiyan calmed down and fell asleep slowly.
