Chapter 211 Swearing without swearing
Mrs. Gu Er's smile disappeared and her whole body was shaking.
After so many years of pampering, she was very comfortable with money. And with the reputation of the Duke's Palace, no one in Lin'an would look down upon her.
She thought this trip would put an end to the past.
Mrs. Gu Er lowered her face and directly stated the purpose of coming.
"No matter what I say, I am still your aunt. I can't write two characters in one stroke. Brother Hui is also your brother. He is now married and has a child, but he has no official position. He spends all day doing nothing, even if he is separated
You have a family, but I think your face is also pale."
As she said that, she stood up straight, looked directly into Gu Huaizhi's face, and sneered: "You deserve the emperor's respect, so why not help your brother? He is not as capable as you, but he is also smart. If this thing comes to pass,
, he will definitely regard you as his first priority."
Gu Huaizhi had never seen such a shameless person.
These words are simply more outrageous than those in the script.
Gu Huaizhi looked at her, so overwhelming that she couldn't breathe.
He turned the jade ring in his hand and mocked: "Did he ask you to come?"
Mrs. Gu Er panicked. Master Gu Er didn't know about this.
"good."
Gu Huaizhi sneered: "He is really shameless despite his age."
Being played around by a woman, she no longer wanted her family, nor her parents. She left the Duke's Mansion so heartlessly during the most difficult time.
I’ve spent half my life reading books in a dog’s belly.
The man was not angry and proud, and said contemptuously: "Since it is what he wants, he can come to me and ask for it himself."
"Before my grandfather died, as long as he had some conscience, he would not have refused to return home. How can such an unfaithful, unfilial, benevolent and unjust person be said to care about his family?"
He spoke slowly word by word, which seemed like Ling Chi to Mrs. Gu Er.
"As for you? The ancestors of the Gu family treated you well, but you teased me wantonly. How can you bear the words "aunt" when I call you?"
"roll."
Sheng Wan was very proud.
"Isn't that right? Gu He has long since lost his younger brother. To put it bluntly, it's not thanks to you. What a great skill. You can make a man give up anything for you."
"roll."
How could Mrs. Gu get away?
The family is almost unable to make ends meet, and the son is also incompetent. He has been gambling all day long and now still owes a large amount of debt.
Of course she didn't want to use her own jewelry to fill this hole.
She could only go and see Ruan Zhen.
"Niece-in-law..."
As soon as he said a title, he was interrupted by Ruan Zhen's smiling face.
"You have disgraced me. How can I, an ignorant woman, interfere in official affairs? Looking at the whole world, there is absolutely no reason for this."
Mrs. Gu Er:??? Is Ruan Zhen making insinuations and scolding her without knowing the seriousness of it?
Ruan Zhen's face was calm and her tone was distant.
"Although I am a bride, I also know that my father-in-law and my husband climbed up to the current Duke's Mansion step by step based on their ability. If your son is a gentleman, why would he follow such crooked ways?"
Ruan Zhen looked at Mrs. Gu calmly.
Although the headdress is expensive, it is not the fashionable style in Lin'an. It can be seen that after moving out, the family only knows how to spend money.
"With all due respect, your appearance is too ugly."
The young lady speaks with a smile and doesn't use any curse words. Her words are clear, soft and sweet. You can't find a single fault.
Gu Huaizhi raised his eyebrows, obviously a little surprised, but soon felt that this should be the case.
Not to mention Mrs. Gu, even if you make her anxious, no matter how well-behaved the little kitten is, she can crawl out of her shell and give you a paw.
"You!" Mrs. Gu Er was furious, but without saying anything, she was escorted out by Chang Su.
The other party was dragged away, and one curse word after another began to pop out of his mouth.
Without thinking, Chang Su roughly took the handkerchief from her hand, crumpled it into a ball and covered her mouth.
Ruan Zhen couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw this scene.
Quietness finally returned to the house.
Gu Huaizhi stood with his hands behind his back, raised his eyelids, and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"Pass the word, if this kind of scoundrel comes to visit again, the concierge will call him out without reporting it."
This is no attempt to hide his anger towards Mr. Gu and his family.
Ruan Zhen pursed her lips. If the other party came to the door again and was thrown out by the servants in front of everyone, she would convey a message to the people of Lin'an.
——The Gu family no longer has a second room.
In this way, people from the second house can no longer rely on Gu Huaizhi's influence to swagger in Lin'an.
That's fine too.
When the family was separated, the Duke's mansion was like a crumbling high-rise building about to tilt. He clearly hated this family, but he still gave half of the family property. This shows that even though the Duke was annoyed, he still cared about the deep brotherhood.
However, after all these years, I have been chilled by them.
It’s okay to separate the family, but it’s also okay to save your own life.
But both their elders were gone, so they still chose to save their lives. It was a waste of time for them to be sons of human beings.
Ruan Zhen had never met Mr. Gu, but she also felt disgusted with him.
To be able to do this back then, he either had reached a consensus with Mrs. Gu, or he was someone who did not dare to disobey his wife.
They are really a bunch of ruthless villains who try to suck human blood.
Changfeng Ying: "Yes."
As soon as the person left, Ruan Zhen helped Sheng Wan sit down.
Sheng Wan fondly touched the embroidered shoes with exquisite patterns, but her mood was still ruined.
She patted Ruan Zhen's hand.
"She was originally a noble lady from a declining family. After joining the Gu family tree, she became a peaceful person. Who would have thought that the so-called peaceful nature would be torn to pieces and crushed by her own hands when a disaster came."
That year, my father-in-law and mother-in-law were also in good health.
Once a gentleman, once a courtier.
Prince Jing's palace was raided, Princess Jing died, and Gu He nearly lost half his life when he begged for mercy. One after another, things happened that were unexpected and inevitable.
Gu He's real power was also taken away by Emperor Hui.
The huge Duke's Mansion has become an empty shell. It used to be crowded with people, but in the end, everyone avoided it again and again, and there were only a few people around.
The two elders were furious and their health was getting worse. But they firmly believed that the Gu family could overcome the difficulties.
Ruan Zhen has become the daughter-in-law of the Gu family. Naturally, she should be told these things.
Sheng Wan: "And their leaving the house became the last straw that broke your grandfather's back."
"My father-in-law has been gone for a few days, and my mother-in-law has also left."
Ruan Zhen lowered her eyes: "Mom, please don't let this kind of people make you angry. The gain outweighs the loss."
Sheng Wan patted her hand again and smiled. She threw away her troubles and looked at Gu Huaizhi and Ruan Zhen.
Mrs. Kong came in with tea and said with a kind smile: "Prince Princess, it's time to serve tea."
Sheng Wan: "Yes, I have prepared a thick wedding bag for you."
Ruan Zhen smiled and stopped mentioning it. She knelt down on the ground submissively. She took the tea and said with a calm face: "Mom, drink tea."
Sheng Wan was reluctant to let her kneel for too long, so he took it immediately and took a sip. Then he stood up and helped her: "Get up quickly."
After doing this, she looked at Gu Huaizhi with a half-smile.
"Kneel down."
Gu Huaizhi:......
