Chu Yuan bowed his head and said nothing with a painful face, but his body was trembling slightly, and he didn't dare to return the old lady's scolding. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The old lady of the Chu family suddenly sighed, sat down again, and sighed softly: "Don't complain that Yue'er called me, if you really do what you did just now, I won't have the face to see your father when I die." ”
Chu Yuan didn't dare to mention it again, bowed his head and said: "Everything is done according to what my mother said, and I will never dare to do it again in the future." ”
The old lady helped Chu Yue to stand up and said: "Yue'er has always been by my side, and she has been taking care of the old mansion in Jingzhou since she was very young, so she naturally doesn't want to watch you destroy it, Nan'er's surname is very indifferent, and he has never interfered in the affairs of the Chu family, if you didn't go too far this time, how could he risk the big crime of unfilial piety against you?"
Chu's teary eyes drooped and sobbed softly, Chu Yuan frowned, and said helplessly: "The child knows his mistake, and he will go to the ancestral hall to think about it in a while." ”
The old lady motioned for Chu Yue to help her leave, and said softly: "I know you don't want to do it in your heart, so don't force yourself." The ancestral hall of the Chu family is in Jingzhou, and I also know that you have made one yourself in the capital just because you are afraid of people gossiping and trying to have peace of mind. Hey, I'll go back to Jingzhou in a few days, so you can do it yourself. ”
Chu Yuan's face was full of bitterness, but he didn't dare to get up, and said with difficulty: "In the coming year, the child will take everyone in the Chu family back, and he will never disappoint his mother." ”
The old lady walked to the door, heard Chu Yuan's words, looked back at Chu An, who was speechless, and sighed: "If I remember correctly, An'er hasn't returned to Jingzhou to worship her ancestors for ten years." ”
Chu's face was full of panic, and he hurriedly explained: "An'er has the emperor's order, and she wants to work as a waiter in the palace, and later she has to learn things in the household department............" As he spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller, and he was a little weak by the eyes of Chu Yuan and the old lady.
The old lady sighed, continued to walk forward, and said to herself: "Even worshipping ancestors can be regarded as the children and grandchildren of the Chu family?"
The Chu family looked sad, and was frightened by the old lady's fluttering words, if this word spread, Chu An's hope of inheriting the Chu family in the future would be at least fifty percent.
Chu Yuan stood up expressionlessly, raised his hand and gave Chu a slap in the face, and shouted angrily: "Destroy mulberry and grow grain? ”
After speaking, he looked at Guo Zhong, who was slowly getting up, and said lightly: "This idiot, break a leg and send him back to the Guo family, if I see him in the Chu family again, I will definitely kill him and drag him out to feed the dogs." ”
Chu Shi covered his face and fell to the ground, and was helped up by Chu An to distinguish a few words, but he was forced to swallow back the words that came to his mouth by Chu Yuan's sharp eyes.
Yangmei tugged at Chu Nan's sleeve and signaled to go back quickly, if she stayed here any longer, she would inevitably be suspected of watching Chu Yuan's jokes.
The old lady of the Chu family was furious, and couldn't help but break the face of the Chu family, and even forced Chu Yuan to kneel for most of the day, and the Chu family was a little frightened. And Chu Yuan's handling of this is to expose the matter, and it can be regarded as an explanation to the Chu family.
The blood stains on Chu Yuan's forehead had already condensed, and the clothes on his chest were still wet, looking a little embarrassed, staring at Chu Nan and saying lightly: "What?
Yang Mei's face was full of sadness, she grabbed Chu Nan's hand and walked out, and said to Chu Yuan: "Father-in-law, when I saw the time to eat lunch, we went back first, and then came to say hello to the second elder in a few days." ”
Chu Nan walked to the door, stopped and turned around and said, "It doesn't matter if you hate me in your heart, I said when I was very young that you and I have different ways." I am willing to do anything for the people I care about, such as Yue'er and grandma, but you are different, you have long been accustomed to being in a high position and giving orders, in your eyes, many things can be abandoned, it depends on whether the return after abandonment is enough, including family affection, and also the prestige of the Chu family. ”
Chu Yuan's heart was even more angry, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and he squinted his eyes and said disdainfully: "Huangkou Xiao'er doesn't know what to say, everything I have done is for the inheritance of the Chu family, and what I have done over the years is definitely worthy of the identity of the head of the Chu family." ”
Chu Nan looked at the pleading Yangmei, and praised with a smile: "What a Chu family master." But if you want me to be convinced, it is better to learn from my grandfather, and ask myself to be demoted to Jingzhou, which is just right for Chu An to take advantage of the situation, I think you also understand that as long as you are in power for one day, Chu An will never be promoted by leapfrogging. Chu An's ascension to the throne, coupled with Chu Mad's influence in the army, and the old Chu family and the Guo family's support, the Chu family will inevitably prosper in your generation. If you really do this, I am willing to kowtow to you in front of everyone in the Chu family and admit your mistakes!"
Chu Yuan's expression froze, his fists clenched but he couldn't speak.
Chu Nan let Yang Mei pull him away, and did not forget to turn around and say disdainfully: "Hypocrisy!"
............................................................................................................... Chu Nan had just returned from Jiangnan for two days, and he had disabled the Chu family's marrying housekeeper, dealt a severe blow to the Chu family's prestige in the Chu family, and made Chu Yuan, who was usually arrogant and self-assured, lose face one after another, I really don't know if the anger in Jiangnan has not been used up.
Yang Mei frowned and persuaded softly: "What's wrong with you today? Why are you so angry? I just made some achievements outside, and I wanted to ease the relationship with my parents-in-law, but today I ......"
Chu Nan sighed and said softly: "You don't understand, I don't care about many things, and I don't bother to fight, but I also have a bottom line, if it is a matter of principle, I can be humble but will never back down." ”
Linglong cautiously stepped forward and poured a cup of tea for Chu Nan and Yangmei, and then stepped aside and stood with her head bowed, listening to the two masters who were a little strange today.
Yang Mei didn't bother to care about Linglong's careful thinking at this time, and persuaded euphemistically: "No matter what, if you want to get angry, you have to say hello and discuss with me in advance, if Yue'er hadn't called the old lady today, it would have been really difficult to end." ”
Chu Nan chuckled: "Why is it not going to end well? In short, I will not kneel down and admit my mistakes, it's a big deal to move out and live, don't feel that I can't live without the Chu family." ”
Yang Mei looked at the stubborn Chu Nan, and said in a pleading tone: "Don't talk nonsense, why do you have to move out if the Chu family stays well? Go and buy a big house, just you, me and Linglong to live in? I know you can't stand that cold one." ”
Chu Nan let out a long breath, bowed his head and said, "I won't tell you, after I came to the capital, I had already asked Tang Shu to find a suitable house, and it was only a matter of time before I moved out." ”
Yang Mei frowned, and then frowned: "Just like the small courtyard I live in now, it costs thousands of taels of silver, and the silver in my hand is barely enough." If the larger ones are at least tens of thousands of taels, the family can't come up with so much money. ”
Chu Nan sighed, glanced at Yangmei with some surprise, and said softly: "I originally thought that you would directly oppose it." ”
Yang Mei lowered her head and looked at her fingertips, and said softly: "If you insist on moving out, Linglong and I can't stay in the Chu family." ”
Chu Nan smiled: "You don't need to worry about the money matter, I will take care of it." After speaking, he looked at the uncomfortable bayberry, and said softly: "Don't worry, I won't be angry and forcibly move out, even if I find a yard, I have to buy some belongings, and ask someone to paint it, and I will discuss it with you after a while." ”
Yang Mei agreed softly, as if remembering something, and twisted her fingers absentmindedly.
Chu Nan asked, "Why do you have this expression?" What are you struggling with?" Yang Mei bit her lip, glanced at Chu Nan, lowered her head and said, "You will turn your face against your father-in-law for the feelings of Yue'er and the old lady, and you are even willing to leave the Chu family." That............ If one day I am bullied, will you be willing to put everything down and be angry for me?"
When arguing with Chu Yuan, Chu Nan resolutely said that he was willing to do everything for the people he cared about, such as the old lady of the Chu family and Chu Yue, but he did not mention himself, which made Yang Mei a little dissatisfied and apprehensive in her heart, and she finally couldn't help but say it after being entangled in her heart for a long time.
Chu Nan couldn't guess Yangmei's thoughts, looked at Yangmei funny, rolled his eyes and said, "When did you become so sensitive?" ”
Yang Mei's face was blushing, frowning and dissatisfied: "What are you laughing at, just say it if you don't want to, I don't care." ”
Linglong raised her mouth, snorted angrily and turned her head, in fact, when Linglong heard Yang Mei say this, she also wanted to ask, but she was just a little girl, and she didn't have the qualifications and status to ask.
Chu Nan let out a long breath, calmed down, got up and sat down beside Yangmei, and said with a smile: "Who dares to bully you? Look at which one in this courtyard has not been bullied by you, isn't it, Linglong." ”
Linglong glanced at Yangmei, and found that Yangmei had no signs of anger, and said with a grin: "Yes, Miss is used to bullying others, so she won't be bullied." ”
Yang Mei glared at Linglong angrily and scolded: "Eat the dead girl who crawls inside and out, I am the most spoiled by you, why is it so easy to rebel?"
After speaking, he pretended to be angry and pushed Chu Nan, pouted and said, "Don't be so close to me, go and bully Linglong, this dead girl can't wait to give you a hug every day." ”
Chu Nan reached out and grabbed Yangmei's little hand, and the other hand reached over to wrap around Yangmei's waist, Yangmei symbolized the resistance of the surname a few times, but slowly leaned on Chu Nan's shoulder, feeling that his face was hot, and he wanted to reach out to cover his cheeks, which must be red, but Chu Nan reached out and held it, and he couldn't pull it out.
Yang Mei felt Chu Nan's hand on her waist slowly wandering, even if it was separated by several layers of clothes, Yang Mei was a little embarrassed, just now Chu Nan was arguing with Chu Yuan in a domineering manner, and then discussed things with himself seriously, how could this be like a changed person, looking at Linglong who was standing on the side with a red face but kept peeking, she couldn't help but threaten in a shy whisper: "If you touch me again, I'll bite you, I'm not Linglong." ”
Chu Nan smiled proudly at Linglong, suddenly kissed Yangmei's pink lips, and said in Yangmei's ear: "Do you want to bite like this?"
Where has Yangmei been teased like this, not to mention that there is still Linglong standing on the side in broad daylight, scratching Chu Nan with a red face, but the panting is not Chu Nan's opponent at all.
Linglong felt a little inexplicable in her heart, stomped her feet resentfully, and deliberately shouted loudly: "I'll go and see if lunch is ready, so I won't disturb your intimacy." ”
Chu Nan stood up to avoid Yangmei's entanglement, and when he heard Linglong's words, he hugged Yangmei and kissed him fiercely, the loud sound made Yangmei die of shame.
Linglong pouted and walked out of the door, suddenly her eyes lit up, and she shouted happily: "Miss, Miss Yue'er is here, ah, and the county lord of Xian'er, she must have come to find the young master." ”
Sure enough, as soon as the words were finished, there were a few cold snorts from the house, followed by Chu Nan's self-suppressed screams.
