Chapter 149: Threats
Feng asked Gu Jinchao to talk to him, and he talked about Ji Yao's marriage. She smiled and took Jin Chao's hand and said, "...... You, the cousin of the Ji family, don't talk about talents, and your conduct is also excellent. What's more, you still have the love of childhood sweethearts, your grandmother found Mrs. Uncle Yongyang to propose, and she also gave us face. I'll tell you, if you're willing...... We'll take this family business down. ”
Gu Jinchao smiled bitterly in his heart when he heard this. Mrs. Yongyangbo's daughter married Ji Yao in her previous life, and in this life she actually came to help Ji Yao say goodbye to her.
But it's just that the world is unpredictable.
No matter how you look at it, she should be in this family business.
Gu Jinchao thought for a moment and said to Feng, "...... I just thought of my second cousin as a cousin, and I didn't mean that. This happened suddenly, you might as well wait for me to think about it for another two days. ”
Feng nodded in response: "Mrs. Bo will come over again the day after tomorrow, and we will settle this matter at that time." ”
Gu Jinchao retreated as promised, and when he walked out of the East Cross Courtyard, he happened to meet Gu Lan and Gu Lian, who came to greet the Feng family.
After the two bowed down to Gu Jinchao, Gu Lan's eyes were a little strange when he looked at Gu Jinchao.
Gu Jinchao smiled and said, "Sister Lan, what's wrong?" ”
Hearing that Ji Yao's family invited Mrs. Yongyang Bo to propose to Gu Jinchao, Gu Lan was unhappy, and she was indignant. Why does Gu Jinchao have a foreign family like the Ji family, in order to save her relatives, even her own grandson's relatives can be put in, just to give Gu Jinchao a glorious and decent appearance. But her family is a person like Mrs. Song, and she can't even let Mrs. Wang propose marriage. Is Gu Jinchao still worried about life after marrying Ji Yao?
But what about her, her family, where is her future going!
Thinking of being left in Shi'an and having a mother who was crazy, Gu Lan had mixed feelings in his heart.
Gu Lan then smiled and said, "The second cousin came to propose to the eldest sister. The second sister is happy. My grandmother has worked so hard for your family affairs that even my second cousin has started it. If you marry the Ji family. It's not like there's no end to the glory and riches......"
Gu Jinchao also understood what Gu Lan meant, and she didn't have to explain to Gu Lan. She smiled and said, "Sister Lan is really happy for me." I was relieved. Glory and wealth dare not say, safety and security is the most important thing. ”
Gu Lian just snorted on the side and didn't speak, and after being reprimanded by the second lady, she wanted to open.
For this family business, she is a little disdainful in her heart. No matter how rich the Ji family is, it is just a businessman's family, even if there is an Uncle Ji who is known to the government. In front of these families, this official position is really not enough. Shinong Industry and Commerce, the Ji family has lowered their Gu family from a low position.
It's just that a member of the Ji family came to propose, and looked at their grandmother with a happy look. The Ji family can't even compare to a finger of the Yao family.
Gu Lian thought of what the second lady had told her: "...... Why should you compare yourself to your lobby sister, you have to think so. No matter how good your lobby sister is, no matter how much your grandmother likes her, how can she like you more than she likes you......" The second lady said meaningfully, "Why do you think your grandmother likes you?" Is it just because you grew up under her knees, of course not, and because you are engaged to the son of the Yao family. You are the most glorious of our Miss Gu family. ”
"Your lobby sister and second cousin. In the future, it will definitely not be as good as one-tenth of you. You have to relax your heart, why bother with some trivial things with them, they will envy your future glory and wealth. Look at your fifth aunt. She is better than her mother, she is far inferior to her mother, why does your grandmother prefer your fifth aunt. That's not looking at her identity as a concubine for a long time...... None of us can afford to mess with this identity. Seeing that she is pregnant, it is like carrying a golden egg, and everyone is precious. It's pregnancy, who has as delicate as her, even the morning and dusk province will let your grandmother be spared! ”
Gu Lian listened to her mother's words, and then went back to think about it carefully, and felt that it was indeed the case.
What is her identity in the future, she will be the wife of the Yao family in the future. Her father-in-law is a scholar of Mandarin Hall and a waiter of the Ministry of Rites. In the future, Yao Wenxiu will be successful in his career, and he will enter the court as an official. What about Gu Jinchao? It was a breakthrough for her to marry her cousin. Not to mention that her cousin probably didn't do it voluntarily, and it was her grandmother who forced someone to marry her. She and Gu Jinchao were arguing. That's the loss of one's identity.
So then she grabbed Gu Lan's arm and said with a smile: "Second cousin, we still have to go to say hello to our grandmother, let's go in quickly!" ”
Gu Lan nodded, and when he passed by Gu Jinchao's side, he asked lightly: "Eldest sister, you are willing to marry like this, what about Chen Qigongzi......"
Her voice was extremely low, and even Gu Lian didn't know it clearly.
Gu Jinchao closed his eyes and sneered, and then said, "Gu Lan, you stop for me!" ”
Gu Lan turned his head and looked innocent: "What's the matter with the eldest sister, I'm going to ask my grandmother for peace!" ”
Gu Jinchao knew that Gu Lan would make trouble in it, and her family affairs could not be successful, but she definitely couldn't do anything because of Gu Lan's trouble. She walked over to Gu Lian and said, "...... Borrow Sister Lan to say a word, Cousin Pian go in first. ”
Gu Lian hesitated a little, and Gu Lan said, "You go in first, and I'll be there later." ”
She wanted to see what Gu Jinchao wanted to say, could she still eat herself?
Gu Lan looked at Gu Jinchao without fear, and smiled very brightly: "Eldest sister should understand the horror of human words better than me, right?" ”
Sooner or later, she would threaten herself with Chen Xuanqing's matter, and Gu Jinchao knew. Now she was going to cut off her thoughts completely. Gu Jinchao said lightly: "The Gu family has spread the discord between sisters, do you think you can please it again?" You're already hard to protect yourself now, but don't spread any more things that like to play with your tongue and frame your siblings. ”
Gu Lan sneered: "Gu Jinchao - you are also afraid?" Are you afraid I'll tell you what you've done? How did you shamelessly hook up with Chen Xuanqing, write letters to others, and give them sachets. I want to have a private meeting with someone, but they don't even want to pay attention to you! "There are too many ridiculous facts that Gu Jinchao has done before, and she knows that if she says these things, she will see who would dare to marry Gu Jinchao!
Gu Jinchao shook his head: "I'm afraid that you will tell these things." I have nothing to be afraid of, but before you do anything, you have to think about Aunt Song, who is far away in Shi'an. Gu Jinchao paused, then laughed softly, "Tell me, if you anger me, then the mother-in-law who is suitable for serving Aunt Song is not thoughtful, and she will die unexpectedly?" Who do you say will ask if she lives or dies? ”
When Gu Lan heard Gu Jinchao mention Aunt Song, his face became a little ugly.
She couldn't imagine that Gu Jinchao would be so ruthless and threaten her with her mother's life!
She looked at Gu Jinchao and said angrily in a low voice: "...... Don't be too shameless, don't involve my mother in the matter between us! ”
Gu Jinchao laughed as if he had heard some joke, "Sister Lan, you are having double standards with people and facts. Why didn't you involve my mother and my brother in the matter between us, and now that my mother has passed away, you asked me not to involve your mother? ”
"I have spared your mother's life, and I have sent people to serve her with good food and drink. If people don't offend me, I won't offend anyone, don't do ghosts for me in secret, Aunt Song will live a good life, and no one will touch her at all. ”
After Gu Jinchao said these words, he looked at Gu Lan coldly: "Including last time, you wanted to marry Qingpu to Xu Houcai...... We are not to blame for the past. From now on, if I find out that you are not good for me, be careful of your Aunt Song who is far away in Shi'an! ”
Gu Lan bit his lip, like a snake that had been choked by seven inches, and he had no strength to refute.
Gu Jinchao felt that he had almost said it, turned around and left the East Cross Courtyard, and Gu Lan's unwilling voice came from behind him: "Eldest sister, even if I don't say it, you can pretend that those things didn't happen?" Do you really want to marry your second cousin, and does your second cousin really want to marry you...... You've got to figure it out......"
Gu Jinchao didn't pause.
Her affairs are not allowed to be dealt with by Gu Lan. Gu Lan should be honest in the future.
Gu Jinchao returned to Yanxiu Hall.
The next day was her sixteenth birthday.
Feng instructed the kitchen to make a bowl of longevity noodles for Gu Jinchao, and gave her a birthday gift, the second lady gave her a treasure elephant flower makeup, and the fifth lady gave her a pair of black jade bracelets, which are excellent blue ink, which can show a transparent and rich blue color in the light. Gu Jinchao took this pair of black jade bracelets, and sighed in his heart that Changxing Houjia was really wealthy, and such a thing was actually given to her as a birthday gift. Jin Chao and the two aunts were talking in the house with Feng, when a little girl came to report that the young master had returned from Shi'an, and the carriage had just arrived at the shadow wall, and was about to come over to greet Feng.
Feng Shi was overjoyed: "I haven't seen this kid for several years." She talked to Gu Jinchao, "I don't know how the Yu family's ethnicity is, I'll have to ask him in a while!" "Feng's liking for his grandson is the most genuine, Gu Dezhao's son, it shouldn't be bad if he wants to come to study, if he can produce another Jinshi to shine on the lintel of the Gu family, it would be a good thing.
Gu Jinchao smiled: "Don't worry, the old lady of the Yu family once served as an emperor." ”
As soon as she finished saying this, she saw Gu Jinrong coming over surrounded by all the little servants and mothers-in-law. He was wearing a fox fur jacket and a small melon skin hat with a top *one, wrapped tightly, with a smile on his face. first saluted the Feng family, saw the two aunts and Gu Jinchao one by one, and secretly smiled at his eldest sister.
Feng Shi held Gu Jinrong left and right, and really liked it: "...... This kid is good-looking, delicate and clean, and his body is also long, and he will definitely grow taller than his father in the future! What do you think of the Yu family, are you still dedicated to reading? ”
The old lady is most concerned about nothing more than the matter of doing business.
Gu Jinrong replied respectfully: "The gentlemen of the Yu family are all knowledgeable, and their grandchildren are eager to learn. The grandson is still attentive in his studies, except for remembering the eldest sister and father, everything else is good. (To be continued)
