Chapter 116: Pondering

Chapter 116 Pondering

"Do you think she's really going to join us?" No mistakes, no word skipping. When Mrs. Shen and the others left, the mother and daughter calmed down a little, and Cao finally couldn't help but ask.

She looked at Gu Bainiang with a gloomy expression on the side, this Mrs. Shen San is completely different from what her daughter described, with such a sharp momentum, she must be a strict mother-in-law who does not smile, how can her daughter say .......

"She won't." Gu Bainiang replied, her hand holding the teacup couldn't help clenching.

As far as she knew, Mrs. Shen San would not do this, but did she really understand Mrs. Shen San?

No one in this world will be good to you for no reason, except for your closest relatives, and obviously Mrs. Shen is not her closest relative.

This thought arises, and the mind is clear for a moment.

She thought of a lot of things, and the memories of Mrs. Shen San came back one after another, the gentle words, the loving face, and the daily preaching, at this time, it seemed that it was a different feeling.

The feeling of intimacy was deliberately made by appearance, and no matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't convince herself to perceive a trace of the warmth she once thought.

Is she changing, and now she has completely changed, so what she sees has changed?

She came back early, and at first glance she couldn't suppress her excitement when she saw Mrs. Shen, but she saw that the other party was not good, because the only warmth left in her previous life made her unable to face the conflict between the two, so she stood outside the door and didn't come in, so she saw such a scene and saw a Mrs. Shen San that she had never remembered before.

Gu Bainiang closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

Well, now, it is no longer possible to imagine that this Third Mrs. Shen really loves her, so she wants to promote the marriage contract.

For her Gu Ba Niang, self-deception must not be allowed, once she is lucky, she will be doomed in the next moment.

If it is what Shen Anlin said, she is for money, then from another point of view, in that life, she Gu Baniang has no money, and Mrs. Shen San is for?

According to the condescension and disdain that Mrs. Shen San had just revealed, Gu Bainiang at that time did not have any advantages, but there were a lot of disadvantages......

Disadvantage Gu Banniang put the teacup down, and her eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Eighteen mothers?" Cao Shi asked with concern.

Fang Cai saw that her daughter was thoughtful, her expression was sad, and she only said that she was worried about Fang Cai's affairs.

"Don't be afraid, repentance is not a big deal, it is a common thing, it is not unusual, not to mention that they are at fault first, even if they are in court, my mother is not afraid..."

As she spoke, she suddenly turned around and walked into the inner hall, Gu Bainiang didn't know what she was going to do, so she hurriedly followed curiously.

"This.." Cao took out a piece of paper from the bottom of the box, and the spots were yellow.

"This is the marriage contract that Master Shen San wrote with his father back then?" Gu Bainiang stretched out her hand to take it.

Seeing that the handwriting on it is scribbled and the format is chaotic, it is obviously not a formal gift book, and it does not mention the birth date or the like, but only says that it is agreed to be the in-laws of the children, and a poem is given at the end, to the effect that it is looking forward to the next big exam, although it has a strong sour and rotten atmosphere, but it does not lose the spirit of the young man......

"This is what they wrote when they were drunk..."Cao smiled at the corner of his mouth, as if he saw her husband drunk and laughing when he came back with a letter of etiquette, and the smile quickly dissipated, leaving only a mouth full of bitterness.

Gu Bainiang lit the candle on the table.

"It's not the right door," she muttered.

Marrying someone with such an identity and status, and a lonely person with no father, mother, brothers and sisters, what does it mean for Shen Anlin, the son-in-law of everyone?

"Jokes... Shame...."Gu Banniang stretched out her hand, Mars chatted, and instantly turned this thin piece of paper into ashes.

Just look at Mrs. Shen San's performance today, is she a person who is willing to be treated as a joke and labeled as a shame?

There was silence in the room, and the mother and daughter looked at the ashes and thought about them, and a gust of wind blew, and the ashes scattered in all directions.

"So mother, she won't really go to our book" Gu Bainiang said lightly, "She is a person who wants to save face..."

Saying that, Fu Cao sat down, "This marriage didn't work out, if outsiders knew that we repented and didn't recognize the marriage, who do you say is more ashamed?" ”

If you want to say that they regret their marriage and don't admit it, I'm afraid that no one will believe it.

"So, she can't afford to lose that person," Gu Banniang said with a smile, "It's inevitable that she will be annoyed and angry, and that's not it, it's just spreading some rumors that slander us...... I don't care, it's just that my brother's family affairs are just afraid that I will suffer some ......"

A little melancholy appeared on her face.

"Eighteen mothers.." Cao Shi whispered, "... There is more important than being alive...."

At this time, he and Gu Hai were no longer alive, let alone picking marriages.......

"Yes." Gu Bainiang nodded with a smile, her eyes were unusually bright, "However, if she dares to make things difficult for her brother in the officialdom through her relationship, I will definitely not let her have a good time."

She clenched her hands, "Those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, I think it's too big, who is afraid of whom"

It's not impossible to back down and endure, but she Gu Bainiang has a bottom line, if anyone challenges her bottom line, don't blame her for breaking the net and hurting others and not benefiting herself.

She has no power to reach the heavens and no nobles to rely on, and some have the will to fight to the death in trapped beasts.

Outside the gate of Gu's house, Mrs. Shen's carriage galloped away, and in the luxurious carriage, Mrs. Shen's hairpin skirt was scattered, her face was pale, and the fingers on her knees turned white from too much force.

"This slut, this slut," she repeated from between her teeth.

"Madam" A round-faced woman hurriedly stepped forward, "I must go to one of them, write a letter to the old man in the capital, and ask them to deal with his son......."

Before she could finish speaking, a slap fell heavily on her face, and the woman fell on the frame, ignoring the pain, and hurriedly fell to the ground, trembling.

"Don't you think I'm not ashamed enough? Do you think it's worth bragging about letting everyone know that they are rejecting our family affairs? "No mistakes, no skipping words. Mrs. Shen San glared at her and gritted her teeth, "Idiot, get away from me"

The woman was so frightened that she did not even call a halt, but lifted the curtain of the carriage and jumped out, and the carriage sped away, and the woman fell down the road.

The coachman didn't seem to see it, his expression remained unchanged, and he raised his whip to urge the horse to stop.

When they had passed, the carriage that followed behind dared to stop, and two servant women came up with a gloating smile, and the woman fell through her clothes, covered her red and swollen face and was ashamed and ashamed to get into the carriage, and the group disappeared into the alley of the Gu family.

Two days later, the Shen family was in the house.

"Madam, I can't find the marriage certificate..."Several servant women bowed their heads and replied to Mrs. Shen San, who was sitting in the hall.

Mrs. Shen, who had regained her calm and couldn't see her anger when she heard this, just put the teacup down heavily, got up and walked into the inner hall.

"Sir.. Master..."Third Lady Shen called softly.

In the bed, Master Shen San just fell asleep, and it took a long time before he seemed to wake up.

"What about the marriage certificate? With the Gu family..."Mrs. Shen asked hurriedly.

“.. En..."Master Shen San turned his head on the pillow in a daze, "....how can there be... The marriage book ....... no ..... ...... don't think about it"

Mrs. Shen San exhaled heavily, sat down on the edge of the bed unwillingly, and stroked Master Shen San's hand.

“… Didn't you say, eat drunk, write a about... And the poems—" she whispered in his ear.

Master Shen San seemed to think of it, and a smile appeared on his weak face.

“… The penny swayed lightly through the city of Chu...... Yuge Yao called for Jiang Feng .....Good poems..."He muttered.

"Do you remember? Where to put it? Third Lady Shen asked with joy on her face.

"Burned ....." Master Shen San muttered, suddenly tilted his head, and tears flowed from his face, "..... Wen Niang... Wen Niang....I'm sorry for you....."

Mrs. Shen's face sank, she slowly sat up straight, listening to the third master Shen on the bed whimpering and vaguely calling Wen Niang to fall into a deep sleep, and the room was quiet.

Mrs. Shen only felt that the hand in her hand was cold, and her eyes fell to the side of the bed, and there was a black lacquer makeup box on the small table, and the word "Wen Niang" carved in seal script was impressive.

She jerked to her feet, took a few steps and grabbed the box, about to smash it on the ground.

"Madame," an old woman ran out of nowhere, grabbed her hand, and shook her head violently.

"Madam, no, my lord has not yet... Young Master Lin hasn't ..... yet." The old woman whispered, "....not at this time....."

Mrs. Shen's expression changed, her hand slowly put down, put the makeup box back on, and reached out and stroked it gently, as if to wipe off the dust on it.

"It's been fifteen years since I've been here....... "... Fifteen years, but it's just a blink of an eye....."

“.. Yes, ma'am," the old woman held out her hand, "... Young Master Lin has already gone to Beijing to go to the army........ old slave got the news that the battle in the north is getting more and more intense......"

"Didn't you say that you want to negotiate peace..."Mrs. Shen San turned around and strolled out, "....I still continue to fight, and many people will die again....Amitabha Buddha ....."

Her voice was sad and compassionate, but her eyes were cold.

"However, the affairs of the slut's family can't be left like that," she said through gritted teeth, "After all these years, I have suffered such anger"

"Yes, don't worry, madam," the old woman raised her head and smiled slightly, "as long as she is in Jiankang for a day, she will not want to marry well."

Time flew by, time flew by, Mrs. Shen San's side was beyond Gu Banniang's expectations, there was no movement, it seemed that nothing had happened, afterwards, Gu Ba Niang hesitated again and again, or sent someone to quietly investigate Shen Anlin, for his sudden conversation that day, she wanted to ask a few more words, but the person who came back told her that Shen Anlin returned to the army and was reinstated.

"At this time?" Gu Bainiang was stunned for a moment, turned her head and calculated, and made peace with her memory.

She and Shen Anlin got married next year, and when they got married, Shen Anlin was out fighting, so it was calculated that this is the time to set off, right? No mistakes in many words

She shuddered suddenly, that is to say, when she saw him Shen Anlin again, he should be a ..... cripple.

This is a matter of fate, and it has nothing to do with her, not to mention that he is just lame, and he is much happier than losing his life.

Looking at the swallows hovering in the low sky, Gu Bainiang waved her hand and asked the little girl to retreat and never inquire about anything about the Shen family.

In the blink of an eye, putting down the letter from the capital, Gu Bainiang rubbed her sore arm and walked out of the pharmacy room.

Gu Hai was steady in Yunmeng Academy, and Gu Yu didn't move, just studied hard, and in the face of the upcoming exam to determine the future official career, everyone put down other thoughts, only to work hard, waiting for the choice of fate.

Lingbao lived in a medicine store, worked as a medicine cleaner at night to make money, and walked the streets and alleys to find Lingyuan during the day, but there was still no whereabouts.

A cough interrupted Gu Bainiang's contemplation, she turned around, and saw that Liu Gong didn't know when he came back, and was walking quickly to his house, coughing and flushing.
