Chapter 144 Fight for Status
The banquet dispersed, and Gao Ziang was very angry about Li Wanying's performance at the table. Mother's words obviously brought the hearts of the family together, Li Wanying didn't know each other, and she made such a play, and she thought she couldn't get on the stage.
As soon as Li Wanying returned to the house, Gao Ziang taught her a lesson, and she relied on her to say that she was careless. The titular couple quarreled again over this.
Gao Ziang, who was huffing and huffing, could only come to Wanning's house to find comfort. As soon as he entered the house, he walked up to Wan Ning, frowning, and staring at her with a pair of eyes that did not turn his eyes away.
Wan Ning looked at him very suspiciously and asked, "What's wrong?" As soon as I finished eating, my face was red, and I couldn't eat enough? ”
"Why aren't you the one next to me? With your sister's virtue, what qualifications does she have to be the young lady of the Gao family! ”
Wan Ning pulled him to the table and sat down: "Brother, you take a sip of tea to dissipate your anger." ”
She poured a cup of hot tea and brought it to Gao Ziang's eyes. He was full of anger, how could he be in the mood to drink any tea? It didn't mean to serve a teacup. Wan Ning winked, but he still didn't take the teacup.
Wan Ning said helplessly: "Okay, okay, you are the eldest young master, can I serve you in place?" She brought the teacup to Gao Ziang's lips, tilted it slightly, and easily fed him a few sips of tea.
"Mother is desperate to make this family harmonious, and what about her?" The more Gao Ziang thought about it, the more angry he became.
Wan Ning put down the teacup and said, "What my sister did, my parents all saw it in their eyes, and they knew it in their hearts, brother, don't be angry." ”
Gao Ziang turned his face to look at Wan Ning, and said seriously: "Because of this, I am even more angry." As a man, if you can't manage your own family, you will be embarrassed and thrown to your parents! And you, Wanning, you shouldn't be wronged. ”
"Don't say it, this is called being wronged! Haven't I eaten quite well and been happy? ”
Gao Ziang put a stool next to him in front of him, pulled Wan Ning over and sat down, and finally eased his tone: "Sister Wan, how good it would be for everyone to be like you!" ”
"If it weren't for me, my sister wouldn't have done something like that at the banquet, and you wouldn't have had any troubles."
"Without you, if someone else is replaced, she is still like that, she is just that virtuous."
Wan Ning leaned on his shoulder and reached out to caress his chest: "Don't be angry, we all hope that your life is comfortable, brother." Don't think about today's events. If my sister can stop, she will stop; If not, you'll be angry again, isn't she like that? As for my mother's hope that our family will be harmonious, now that we can all endure it, won't we be harmonious? ”
Gao Ziang quickly accepted Wanning's persuasion, and the anger in her stomach was extinguished in a few words. He hugged Wan Ning in his arms tighter, feeling that she was very precious. Since he doesn't plan to continue to be angry with Li Wanying, he should think more about Wanning.
He changed his train of thought, and said after a while: "I hope to see Wan Ning eat on the table on ordinary days in the future like today." According to the rules of the Gao family, concubines are not allowed to eat at the table, so he said.
Wan Ning was silent, leaning on him weakly. Probably because in the afternoon, it is easy to feel sleepy.
To let Wanning eat at the table and be the master of the Gao family, this is not just an idea, he must implement it into action. It's better to be sooner than late, so it's better to ask your mother now.
With what he knew about his mother, he thought she would say yes. Parents don't want to see the hostess of the next generation of the Gao family, and this person, Wan Ning is the best candidate. They also knew that Li Wanying was not suitable.
Gao Ziang knew that his mother was taking a nap at this time, but at this moment, he asked his mother to go over and guard her.
Wan Ning in her arms in front of her was also drowsy, and closed her eyes several times. He called softly: "Wanning." ”
Wan Ning slowly raised her head to look at him, listless.
"Go to bed, okay?"
"Hmm."
After settling down, Gao Ziang came to his mother's room and saw Xie Xiwen's personal maid Jin'er guarding his mother's side.
Jin'er whispered, "Young Master? ”
"You go down and rest for the time being, and I will guard my mother."
"Yes." Jin'er stepped back.
Gao Ziang saw that her mother was sleeping comfortably on the yellow rosewood couch, her face was not gloomy, and it seemed that she was not affected by Li Wanying's inappropriate behavior at lunch. This made him feel a lot more comfortable, but it was also true that he didn't take care of his backyard.
He gently moved a stool and sat quietly beside his mother.
After about half an hour, Xie Xiwen slowly opened his eyes. "You're here!"
"Mother, you're awake." Gao Ziang helped Xie Xiwen up and leaned against the back of the couch, reaching out to knead his mother's legs.
"You're so attentive today, what's the matter with you?"
The mother saw through him at a glance, and he simply stopped hiding, and simply said directly: "Mother, my son has something to ask you." ”
"What's the matter?"
"My son hopes that you will allow Wanning to eat at the table in the future."
Xie Xiwen didn't agree immediately, but he didn't feel strange, he just said: "Wanning doesn't even have a name, what identity is she?" ”
"Wanning didn't really marry me, she was still a guest at this time. Even if she is no longer a guest in the future and really marries me, my son wants her to be the master of the Gao family. In every respect, we shouldn't be missing her on the dinner table. ”
Xie Xiwen actually had this intention for a long time, as the housemother of the Gao family, of course she hoped that the people of the Gao family would be prosperous from generation to generation. The sons are already married, but they can't be a pair, and the descendants of the Gao family should be complete. To fill this void, Wan Ning had the best choice.
She treats Wanning well, in addition to really cherishing this prospective daughter-in-law who has grown up since childhood, she actually has her own plans, she hopes to see her grandchildren as soon as possible.
She only nodded slightly: "Mother promised you, in the future, you will ask Wanning to eat together." ”
"Mother, you are so nice!" Gao Ziang was very happy, and even slightly excited.
Xie Xiwen glanced at him, and said angrily: "Such an adult, I don't know how to converge, so let my subordinates see the joke." ”
"The son thanked his father and mother for Wanning."
"Don't thank you! You also work harder to persuade Wanning to marry into the Gao family as soon as possible, and you can also give me a grandson as soon as possible. ”
Of course, Gao Ziang understands his mother, and he must have her own thoughts about Wanning, but this is nothing, he also knows that his mother really loves Wanning. Otherwise, the position of the young lady of the Gao family is very likely to be changed. Mother probably also knows her feelings for Wanning, and she can't bear to see that she is in great pain because she can't get Wanning.
He said: "Mother, with a kind elder like you, always thinking about our juniors, Wan Ning and I will definitely let you achieve your wishes." ”
"It's good to understand."
