Gu Wanyin smiled softly, "I'm also worried, why don't I accompany my mother on a trip?" "She wants to see, what does Gu Yin want to make trouble?

Zhang smiled slightly, but his smile was a little cold: "I'm afraid that the third girl is having a temper and doesn't want to see anyone." ”

"How is that possible? It was her honor to be a daughter when her mother went to see her, how could she not see her mother? If the third sister really dares to do this, let alone the mother, even I will be angry. Gu Wanyin smiled sweetly, but her voice carried an inexplicable chill.

Zhang Shi took a deep look at Gu Wanyin, and his heart sank, and he intuitively felt that Gu Wanyin's Xingzi seemed to be getting colder and colder. It's also getting more and more frightening to look at - is this the red who is close to Zhu, and the black who is close to ink? Not a family, not a family?

It's just that although he speculated in his heart, Zhang's face was not revealing at all, and he still smiled: "Since this is the case, how about you accompany me on a trip?" It's okay to be idle, why don't you accompany me to another place? Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other since I got married. ”

Gu Wanyin groaned slightly, and understood where the Zhang family planned to go, glanced at the Zhang family with a smile, lowered her gaze slightly, hid the flash of essence in her eyes, and said with a little smile: "It's just right, I'm going to incense my mother too." Speaking of which, I haven't seen my mother for a long time. ”

Zhang was slightly stunned, and then remembered that the ancestors of the past dynasties were indeed enshrined in the family temple. Gu Wanyin's biological mother Luo is Gu Changfei's wife, although she died early, the tablet is also enshrined in it. However, Zhang was stunned for a long time, so he smiled and said, "Then I'll ask people to find Cong Qi first." Speaking of which, he should also go to incense and burn paper. Table of filial piety. ”

Zhang's words were extremely sincere, and he couldn't see the slightest unpleasantness. Doesn't seem to care that he's just a stepfamily.

Gu Wanyin looked at the bottom of her eyes, the smile on her lips deepened a little, and she said with a smile: "It's not necessary, it's okay for my mother to take Cong Qi when the New Year is over, we have to do other things today, it's not good to take him with you." "As long as Zhang has this mind, it is already excellent. As for the worship - Gu Congqi is afraid that he doesn't have the slightest impression of Luo, right? It's not interesting to take him on a trip. Instead, it gets in the way.

"Cong Qi is much more naïve than Cong Lin. If I want to see it, it's better to expose him to some of these things. As a son-in-law, he will have a great responsibility on his shoulders in the future. Wanyin, you protect him like this, but it makes him lose the ability to protect himself. Zhang said slowly, his voice was extremely solemn.

Gu Wanyin was stunned and looked up at Zhang.

Zhang didn't dodge, only calmly looked at Gu Wanyin.

In the end, Gu Wanyin lowered her head and sighed inaudibly, but her expression was a little agreeing: "Mother said that I was negligent." Perhaps, she was bent on letting Gu Congqi grow up simply and happily, did she hurt him? Also, if Gu Congqi was not so simple, maybe he would not be calculated by Gu Conglin; On weekdays, he won't let Gu Conglin play around. Perhaps, not only Gu Congqi, but also Gu Congrui - she has always only carried everything on herself, did she harm her brother and younger brother instead?

I have to say that Zhang's words really touched her deeply. Even, some blame themselves.

Zhang turned his head to the girl and ordered, "Go and call the third young master." ”

Gu Wanyin lowered her eyes slightly, and did not say anything against it. Perhaps, as Zhang said, maybe it would be good for Gu Congqi to have more contact with these. Now that Gu Congqi is no longer under her wings, it is indeed time to learn to grow up. It's hard for the Zhang family to treat Gu Congqi as their own son, so it's better to give it a go and leave it to the Zhang family to deal with these things.

Heng and vertically, Zhang and them are in the same boat.

Gu Congqi came quickly, but he was a little unhappy when he heard that he was going to the family temple. After all, although the family temple is a place to worship the ancestors, it will not open the gate at all except for the New Year's holidays, and there is no crowd on weekdays, which looks strange and infiltrating. At the moment, she was coquettish to Gu Wanyin and Zhang's like twisted candy: "Sister, I don't want to go, mother." It's scary—"

Zhang persuaded softly: "Go and incense your mother, how can you not go?" I'm with your sister and you, what's so scary? Cong Qi, you are obedient, go back and let the girl make you something to eat. ”

Gu Wanyin sank her face: "You have to go, don't be coquettish!" See for yourself how old you are? If you don't grow all day, how will you support your family business in the future? "Since it has been decided to teach Gu Congqi what reality is, the previous set will naturally not work.

Gu Congqi had always been afraid of Gu Wanyin, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything at the moment, but he subconsciously shrank towards Zhang's side. In the subconscious of children, when something happens, they always hide it in a place where they feel safe. Visible. After such a long period of subtle transformation, the Zhang family has already let Gu Congqi accept it from the bottom of his heart.

Zhang glanced at Gu Wanyin, and her voice became softer and softer: "Your sister is right, let's go, let's go." You're a man, how can you be afraid of this? ”

Zhang's persuasion and Gu Wanyin's black face finally made Gu Congqi say something that he couldn't say, even if he was still reluctant, but he also responded: "Then go" While saying, he cautiously glanced at Gu Wanyin.

Gu Wanyin still had a black face. Gu Congqi shrunk his neck and quietly squeezed to Zhang's side.

Gu Wanyin saw it in her eyes, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

In the end, he forcibly looked away. Gu Congqi has liked to stick to her since she was a child, but now she is so easily thrown into Zhang's arms. To be honest, not only do I feel that I am too vicious, but I also feel a little sour in my heart, which is actually a little tasteful. However, if it weren't for this, how easy would it be for the Zhang family to get Gu Congqi's approval? After all, it was the Zhang family who would accompany Gu Congqi in the future, not her. She should have given up this position. Instead of being recognized for Zhang's own efforts in the future, it is better for her to help now, which can make Zhang's gratitude a little. When the time comes, take care of Gu Congqi a little more.

Gu Wanyin's meaning, why doesn't the Zhang family know? At the moment, he took Gu Congqi's hand, but said with a gentle smile: "Your sister is also for your good." ”

Gu Congqi nodded lightly, but he didn't raise his head, Xu was still a little scared in his heart.

The three of them took a few girls to the family temple. The family temple is almost located in the most remote corner of the Gu family's mansion, and no one has ever come to it, so it looks very desolate. The family temple has always been only allowed to enter by the descendants of the Gu family, and the girls and mothers-in-law are not allowed to enter at will. Therefore, Gu Wanyin and the others left the girl they brought outside the door of the family temple.

Although the family temple is repaired every year, it still looks a little gloomy in the end. Standing in front of the black gate, not to mention an adult like Gu Congqi, Gu Wanyin and the others were also a little worried.

Gu Wanyin took a deep breath, took out her soft and delicate hand, clasped the copper ring and knocked it gently. The heavy brass ring sounded, and after a while, an old voice was heard in the door: "Who?" "After all, it's not a New Year's Day, and it's not a festival, and someone suddenly knocks on the door, which is really a bit surprising.

Zhang said loudly: "I am your stepwife. There is also the second young lady Gu Wanyin, and the third young master Gu Congqi. Mama Lao opened the door and let us go in and worship one or two. "The grandmothers who can stay in the family temple are all meritorious to the Gu family, not to mention the Zhang family, even the old lady came in person, and her attitude is also very polite. Looking at the ancestral tablets and incense for the Gu family, if the descendants of the Gu family are not respected, who will respect?

"It turned out to be Mrs. and Miss Young Master." The old lady inside laughed, and then opened the door. The black-lacquered door was extremely heavy, and the number of times it was opened was small, and it made a "creaking" sound, which was very penetrating.

Gu Congqi couldn't help but grab Zhang's hand, Zhang lowered his head and smiled at him, and comforted him softly: "This door hasn't been opened for a long time, and it is reasonable to have a voice." You don't have to be afraid. ”

The old lady was indeed a little old, her face was full of wrinkles, gray hair, and she was dressed in blue cloth, if it wasn't for the smile on her face, it would be kind and kind to look at, otherwise it would be even more terrifying.

Gu Wanyin stretched out her hand and handed over the basket in her hand, and said softly: "This is for filial piety." By the way, Mama, Aunt Li, will this be there? ”

The old lady took it with a smile, only to feel a sinking in her hand, sniffed slightly, only to feel a fragrance coming to her nose, and immediately smiled more and more: "Thank you Second Miss for thinking about the old slave." As for Aunt Li, she was just resting in her room. ”

Gu Wanyin nodded clearly, turned her head sideways and said to Zhang: "Cong Qi and I will go to worship my mother first, and worry about my mother waiting here." ”

"You go, I'll accompany Mama to say a few words." Zhang nodded, without the slightest dissatisfaction, but said softly to Gu Congqi: "Qiqi, I saw your mother and said hello to her for me." ”

"Mother loves Cong Qi so much, my mother knows everything, and she must be grateful to you, mother." Gu Wanyin lowered her head slightly, and said with a light smile. Zhang's bearing is worthy of respect. Many stepmothers can't directly erase the existence of their ex-wife, but Zhang's can be so calm, but it looks very graceful.

Zhang smiled softly and urged softly: "Go quickly." ”

Gu Wanyin nodded, and pulled Gu Congqi in to worship.

And Zhang snatched a jade bracelet from his hand, quietly stuffed it into the old woman's hand, and said with a slight smile: "I don't know how Aunt Li is doing now?" ”

The old lady's eyes flashed: "Good food and drink are offered, where is there anything bad?" I look a little fatter than when I came. ”

"Oh?" Zhang's smile did not decrease: "I thought that praying for blessings in the family temple was the same as in the Buddhist hall, and they were all vegetarians." Why isn't our family? ”

The old lady groaned slightly, then smiled gloomily, and her eyes swept over Zhang's face: "If it weren't for Madame's reminder, the old slave would have really forgotten." "That Aunt Li, relying on herself as the master, makes it difficult for them everywhere to be a slave, without the slightest respect. It used to be enough, but now that someone wants to embarrass Aunt Nari, they will naturally push the boat with the water.
