Chapter 109: The East Strikes the West
After the two of them dispersed, the Li family looked at Gu Wanyin with a smile: "Why are you targeting the Qi family?" In my opinion, Li Niang is the problem, right? Qi is so forbearant and knows how to make trade-offs, what kind of stupid thing would he do?
Gu Wanyin smiled slightly, looked down at the embroidery on her handkerchief, and said slowly: "Only if the Qi clan feels that he is in danger, he will throw out something that is beneficial to us." If Qi is smart enough, this time, we can catch a big fish. ”
Li Shi pondered for a moment, and then raised his eyebrows in surprise: "You mean, the sound of the east and the west?" ”
Gu Wanyin nodded with a smile.
"Looks like I'm underestimating you." Li took a sip of tea with a smile and looked at Gu Wanyin playfully.
"Auntie lifted me." Gu Wanyin smiled bitterly, "If I were really that powerful, I wouldn't have been treated so badly." It's also my negligence, just thinking about waiting for things to change, and I can see who is the one behind the scenes. But I didn't expect things to be so big, but I put myself in it. ”
"You're still young after all." Li Shi said very pertinently: "But it's much better than your mother." "Although it may seem like it, in fact, it's really more than a star and a half. Luo is virtuous and gentle, but he is not good at scheming, and he does not have the skill to be in charge of the house. But Gu Wanyin ...... When she is older and has more experience, she will definitely be very different from Roche in the future.
Gu Wanyin glanced at Li Shi gratefully, and thanked him seriously: "I am grateful to my aunt for her great help this time. If it weren't for my aunt's presence, I would have absolutely no choice. ”
This time, Li Shi stopped smiling, and said with some anger and distress on his face: "How can I not know your suffering? There is an old lady who can't press over, and besides, you are just a girl's family, who in this family can obey you? Isn't it yin and yang? Your father's son is like that again. Li Niang and Qi didn't look like they could be separated. It's good that you're able to protect yourself. Besides. After all, they are elders, if you really move the real character, I'm afraid that the first one who is not is you. When the time comes, the spitting stars will drown you. ”
Gu Wanyin didn't speak when she heard this, but quietly sighed in her heart. Li really understands her difficulties.
Yes, she is a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, how can she manage too much? Especially his father's concubine? The old lady loves her well, but the old lady is not only her grandmother, but also the old lady of the Gu family. There are some things, even if she says it, the old lady will not completely protect her.
The old lady has to take care of the future of the Gu family. You have to take care of Gu Changfei's feelings, you have to take care of your face outside, and you have to take care of your ...... After taking care of the same, how much can her granddaughter occupy?
It's not that she's not satisfied, but that's what it is. Although compared to Gu Yingyin, they are concubines. Her granddaughter is already blessed. But compared to Gu Congrui and Gu Congqi, she is not half a star behind. After all, daughters are going to get married, and it will be the men who will stand on the top of the Gu family in the future.
So the old lady's patriarchy is naturally understandable.
If she really dared to make a move on Madame Li and the Qi family. Needless to say, the old lady is also to blame her. The word "li" suppressed her alive;
During the trip to the temple, the old lady didn't know that Qi broke into her house with a group of people. It's not that the old lady doesn't know that the Qi clan has done something wrong. But the old lady said nothing. Why? Because all along, Qi has performed very well. Gu Changfei has always been very fond of the Qi family, and more importantly, the Qi family also has a son, Gu Conglin.
Mothers are more expensive than children. Gu Conglin is getting bigger day by day, and the old lady has begun to take care of Gu Conglin. This point can be understood from the fact that the old lady did not accuse the Qi family, and even lightly exposed this matter.
So, how could she tell the old lady her suspicions? How can you complain?
She couldn't say it to the old lady, let alone Gu Changfei, and even Gu Congrui had to hide it. With his brother's temper, his brother will definitely not give Qi and Mrs. Li any face. But what will the old lady think when the time comes? The old lady will think that she instigated Gu Congrui to make trouble in the future.
Li Shi saw that Gu Wanyin was silent. Then he patted her on the shoulder and said, "Li Niang seems to really hate you." And that is the kind of thing that is spoken today. The old lady shouldn't have relented and let her in the first place! Otherwise, how could so many things have happened later? ”
Gu Wanyin didn't know how Mrs. Li entered the door, she was too young at that time. Can't remember anything. Coupled with the fact that the old lady did not allow anyone to talk about it, she never knew what had happened back then.
But I've heard it mentioned many times. She felt as if it wasn't a good thing. At least, it made the old lady and Gu Changfei feel uncomfortable. Otherwise, I wouldn't have forgotten it after so many years.
"Ever since I helped my grandmother with the housekeeping, Mrs. Lee has always looked at me unpleasantly." Gu Wanyin smiled faintly, no longer said about this matter, and turned to another matter: "I don't know if the third sister has decided or not, Princess Pingbei and the Zhennan Mansion are about to come over and ask." It's just that I don't know if my matter will affect the third sister's marriage? ”
Li Shi looked at Gu Wanyin laughing at herself, her heart was sour, and she forced a smile and said, "Things will always be fine, I don't believe that people in the world don't have eyes?" As for the marriage of the three girls, she also made it herself, and we can't be blamed in the future. ”
Gu Wanyin nodded: "That's indeed the case. ”
It's just that I hope Gu Yingyin won't be at the mercy of others. Otherwise, it will be too late for her to regret it. After all, although Gu Yingyin was disgusting, she didn't do anything too hurtful in the end. It will not end badly.
Thinking of Gu Yingyin, she inevitably remembered another person-Zhou Ruijing.
Tomorrow is Gu Yingyin's last choice, why shouldn't she? It's just that no matter how Gu Yingyin chooses, it won't be so bad. But what about her?
With such a thing, I think no one can tolerate her. Zhou Ruijing and Princess Zhennan should be able to avoid suspicion, and this family affair will not be done.
She didn't think there was anything before, but after this incident, she somehow had a faint regret in her heart.
Perhaps, this is what people call fate, right?
Speaking of which, Zhou Ruijing doesn't know if it's really too hard? The first two died, and it was her turn, and something like this happened again. But if that's the case, her life is probably harder, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it be just reputational damage?
Thinking like this, she herself felt a little funny, and couldn't help laughing out loud;
It startled the Danzhi next to him. Danzhi stretched out his hand and probed her forehead, and said nervously: "Isn't Miss a magic barrier?" "Gu Wanyin hasn't had a smile in the past two days, and suddenly coming like this, it is indeed a bit abnormal, no wonder Danzhi is worried.
knew that Danzhi cared about her, and was afraid that she wouldn't be able to think about it, so he glanced at Danzhi with a smile and said, "It's okay." Danzhi, in fact, it's not a big deal to think about it. It's a big deal that I won't get married, and I'll become a sister-in-law. ”
Danzhi bit her lip and glanced at Gu Wanyin seriously, "No matter where Miss goes, I will accompany Miss Miss." Being a sister-in-law is being a sister-in-law, it's more interesting to think about than in this family, at least you can live in peace! ”
Gu Wanyin was stunned for a moment, and her smile slowly became a little bitter: "Yes, it won't be worse than now." If it weren't for Gu Congrui and Gu Congqi, she wouldn't really want to be a sister-in-law. It's just that......
She doesn't give up easily. She won't let those who wait to see her jokes get their way.
Danzhi glanced at the sky and quietly changed the topic: "It's time for dinner, do you eat it in the house, or move to the osmanthus tree?" ”
Gu Wanyin shook her head: "It's better to be in the house, and it won't save trouble." "Eat outside, Danzhi they have to smoke it first, and then smoke away all the mosquitoes before letting her go out, the weather is so hot, you have to sweat when you move, why bother?
Danzhi nodded, and suddenly said: "There is still half a jar of osmanthus brewed last year, do you want to taste it?" ”
"It's just dinner, why do I need to eat alone with such trouble? Osmanthus brewing is only such a jar a year, what to do with a good waste? Gu Wanyin couldn't cry or laugh, and directly picked people up: "Go and set the meal." ”
Suddenly, a hearty laugh came from outside: "Osmanthus stuffed? It's good stuff, bring me a pot! ”
Hearing this voice, Gu Wanyin stood up in surprise, took three steps and two steps to greet her, and cheered out in surprise at the same time: "Brother? You're back? ”
Even with the Danzhi, he was also very surprised, and he smiled for a while.
Gu Congrui strode in from outside, although he looked haggard, his clothes were not neat, and he had stubble on his face, but he was intact and full of energy. It doesn't look like it's been bitter.
Gu Wanyin looked him up and down, until she was sure that he was indeed fine, and then smiled: "It's good to come back." As he spoke, his eyes were slightly moist.
Danzhi also smiled: "Don't talk about a pot of wine." Even if half of the jar is taken out, the young lady is willing to do it! "Gu Congrui has come back intact, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal, is this matter about to be resolved?
Gu Congrui pretended not to see the look on Gu Wanyin's face, only looked away, and laughed loudly: "Quick, I haven't eaten meat and drunk wine for two days, hurry up and prepare wine for me." Everything in prison is good, but the food is too bad! ”
In a word, it amused Gu Wanyin and the maids in the room. For a moment, the previous depression and dullness were swept away, and they were replaced by joy and joy.
The bitterness in Gu Wanyin's heart disappeared without a trace. However, she was not in a hurry to ask how Gu Congrui came back, she was only busy asking the girl to fetch water to clean Gu Congrui's face and shave her beard, and then sent someone to get the above for him to change.
It wasn't until after dinner that she had the heart to ask about it.
