Chapter 533 Diligence
Gu Congqi was shocked, as if he understood something, but his expression became more and more dazed. It took a long time to hear him ask softly, "Sister doesn't plan to save my father?" β
Gu Wanyin shook her head lightly, her expression was indifferent, but she asked rhetorically: "How do you think I should save it?" β
"Everyone said that my sister could save my father. Brother-in-law, he is so majestic, as long as he is willing to make a move-" Gu Congqi said, mentioning that Zhou Ruijing had a look of admiration on his face, and that kind of look and confidence was simply a little blind. I don't know who told him these words, he seems to have always thought so, and at this time, he didn't hesitate for a moment, and obviously he had already thought so in his heart.
Gu Wanyin interrupted in a deep voice without waiting for him to finish: "No matter how powerful and majestic your brother-in-law is, he is also a court official, and he can't bend the law for personal gain, let alone do whatever he wants." Do you know what sin your father has committed? Since he embezzled the money of the imperial court, he should naturally be punished. Or do you want your brother-in-law to be that kind of person to be spurned against? β
Hearing this, Gu Congqi naturally couldn't say any more, and stopped talking blankly. It took a long time to see him shake his head gently, after all, he was still a child, and there was no room for sand in his eyes. When Gu Wanyin said this, the original concept of right and wrong in her heart came up. It is naturally wrong to pervert the law for bribes. In Gu Congqi's opinion, a person like Zhou Ruijing naturally shouldn't do such a thing. Otherwise, wouldn't all the previous prestige be tarnished?
In the end, he even shook his head, and his face gradually showed a little shame. I felt ashamed that he said such a thing and wanted Zhou Ruijing to do something like that.
"It's a good thing that you're worried about your father." Gu Wanyin smiled lightly, pulled Gu Congqi to sit down again, and continued: "But you also have to have a sense of right and wrong. His father was to blame, and no one could save him. Even if you take 10,000 steps back, you can say good things for your father and let him reduce the criminal law, or you can let someone else do it. We don't have to do it ourselves. The aunt is the concubine of the saint, and the uncle and the third uncle can also speak for the father. They haven't acted yet, so how can it be my turn to get your brother-in-law? Naturally, the most important thing is that she is unwilling. It was not difficult to say a word, and it was not difficult to intercede in front of the saint, but she was unwilling; Because there are some pimples in my heart. It's still untitangible.
Gu Congqi thought thoughtfully, thought about it carefully, and nodded. seemed to be a little surprised: "Yes, my aunt and uncle can help." But why did they only let me come to my sister? As everyone knows, his question made Gu Wanyin confused. It is precisely the question that is at the key point -
Gu Wanyin muttered and repeated: "Yes, why are they only staring at us? As he spoke, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his lips. It's just that smile, but gradually it is very cold. Even in his always gentle and indifferent eyes, a trace of sharpness suddenly slipped. The key to this, if it weren't for Gu Congqi's unintentional words, she really couldn't figure it out.
But now...... looked at Gu Congqi with a smile. She said softly: "Recently, there have been a lot of things at home, my grandmother is also sick, the Qi family has given birth again, my father is no longer there, my mother is really busy, why don't you live with me for a while." When this time passes, it's not too late to go back. Don't you want to learn archery from your brother-in-law? It just so happens that he is not busy during this time. can teach you. β
Originally, the Zhang family had said this to Gu Congqi, and now that Gu Wanyin said the same, Gu Congqi naturally did not disagree. It's just that I'm still worried about Mrs. Gu, so I'm a little hesitant: "Grandmother is sick, and I should take care of my sister and brother." β
"Naturally, it should be. It's just that you're still young now, and you should focus on your studies, so you don't have to stay in front of your bed every day. If you are good, your grandmother can recuperate with peace of mind. Every day I have people take you back to see your grandmother. Luckily? Gu Wanyin smiled softly, and reached out to sort out the jade pendant on Gu Congqi's waist, "In a blink of an eye, Congqi has become an adult, so sensible, my sister is very pleased." β
Gu Congqi was complimented. I was happy, and I put aside my troubles and smiled at the moment.
Gu Wanyin laughed with him for a while, and then whispered her doubts: "Who told you that your brother-in-law can save your father?" Those ideas will definitely not be Gu Congqi's own thoughts, they must have been instilled by someone. It's just that...... Who is that man? Zhang's? Qi's? Aunt Li? Or someone else?
Gu Congqi was stunned for a moment, and then naturally replied: "I listened to a few girls who served me whispering in private." β
"Oh?" Gu Wanyin raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled slightly: "Is it Hongzhu?" "Hongzhu, this girl, has been serving Gu Congqi since she was a child, and she personally chose her in the past, but she is smart and clever, and her appearance is also delicate and smart. And what she values most is Hongzhu's loyalty and delicate mind. Hongzhu is very good to Gu Congqi, although she is only five or six years older than Gu Congqi, she is very loyal to Gu Congqi.
Gu Congqi nodded, thought about it and added: "A few of them thought I was asleep talking, and I heard it secretly." But there were a few things that were too hard to hear, and he didn't agree with them, so he didn't say them.
Gu Wanyin nodded, but she didn't say anything more, just smiled and asked Gu Congqi to eat a snack. But in my heart, I wondered: if it was really unintentional, it would be fine. I'm afraid I have a heart. Gu Congqi was young and defenseless, but she couldn't do without. You must know who Gu Congqi is not asleep, it is impossible not to know when she is a girl. Moreover, what is it difficult to say in front of Gu Congqi? But what is the intention of saying these words?
Such tricks are not uncommon. It is precisely because it is eavesdropping that the eavesdropper will believe what he hears.
Thinking like this, Gu Wanyin quietly wrote down a name in her heart: Hongzhu.
After sending Gu Congqi to practice calligraphy in the afternoon, Gu Wanyin called Danzhi: "Danzhi, you let people secretly pay attention to the big girl Hongzhu next to Congqi." β
Danzhi was stunned for a moment, she naturally knew who Hongzhu was, and now Gu Wanyin commanded like this; It was clear that he suspected that Hongzhu had a problem, and he couldn't help but be a little confused at the moment, but he responded on his face, and didn't ask much: "Yes, do you want to tell Mrs. about this matter?" "This lady is naturally Zhang's. Gu Congqi's affairs are all taken care of by the Zhang family, and now that he suspects Hongzhu, if he tells the Zhang family, with the help of the Zhang family, he will naturally get twice the result with half the effort. After all, after getting married, those people in the Gu family have not been used for a long time, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not have any different intentions.
Gu Wanyin shook her head: "You don't have to tell anyone, just pay attention secretly." By the way, Cong Qi is going to live here for a while. Then it's better to send someone to take care of Cong Qi. Just keep an eye out for what she will say to someone when she comes. She understood what Danzhi meant, so she suddenly changed her mind and came up with such a tentative method. Even if you can't find out anything, just observe and observe, knock and knock, it will be beneficial and harmless.
When Danzhi heard this, his heart froze, and the color on his face was a little solemn, and then he retreated to arrange things.
Gu Wanyin was sitting under the window, looking at the newly blooming begonia flowers in a daze, thinking about what was in her heart - that is, what Gu Congqi said inadvertently today: Why did they only focus on Zhou Ruijing?
After thinking about it for a long time, she didn't have a clue, so she didn't think about it anymore, only called Bimei, and whispered, "Go and ask Grandma Γ¨rnΗi to come and talk." "They are all the daughters of the Gu family, they are all the daughters of Gu Changfei, she sent someone back on this side, and Gu Yingyin on the other side must always be informed.
Bi Mei whispered; "After Young Master Congqi came over, she took the girl back to her parents' house."
Gu Wanyin was stunned for a moment, then nodded, thought about it and smiled slightly: "She is courteous." Although she couldn't help with her father's matter, she was filial to her grandmother. It is precisely because of Gu Yingyin's filial piety and diligence that she seems to be too indifferent. Let me ask, my grandmother is seriously ill and my father is imprisoned, if she is indifferent, what is it if she is not indifferent? It really confirms that sentence - the daughter who marries out, the water that is spilled.
When the time comes, with so many cool eyes watching, where can you not give birth to a little gossip? When the time comes, no one will listen to her justification.
Gu Yingyin took a good step this time. It's just that she really doesn't want to show up. She didn't seem to be involved in this matter, so she didn't go back to take a look, but just sent someone to invite the imperial doctor over and sent medicinal materials. I originally thought that I would wait a few days for the limelight to pass. Originally, she was pregnant, so she was not suitable for running, and she could also block the mouths of others and cover up the past, but she didn't expect that Gu Yingyin would fall into her injustice like this.
After all, Gu Yingyin's body is not much better, and it hasn't been long since she had a miscarriage just now. It's time to recuperate.
Still, that's fine. Maybe you can go back and see what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd. made up his mind at the moment, so he instructed the girl: "Prepare the car and go to Gufu." Since her eyes fell on her, she would cooperate.
called Gu Congqi, and the two sisters and brothers went out to Gu's house. It's just that before going out, he instructed the girl again: "After the prince comes back, let the prince wait at home, you don't have to come to look for me." I'll go back as soon as I go. "This matter, let her face it alone, how can Zhou Ruijing not be involved.
However, Gu Congqi was a little puzzled, so he asked cautiously: "Why is my sister going back again?" It's not that I meanβ"
"My grandmother is so sick that I should go back and see her. As for that incident, what does it have to do with it? When others say that others say that I only do what I have to do. Gu Wanyin smiled slightly, and a bright and wise light flashed in her eyes. Seeing that Gu Congqi was a little stunned, he only felt that his sister couldn't take his eyes off.
