MTL - Long Wind Crossing-Chapter 14

Liu Yuru listened to Jiang Rou's words and didn't say anything. Jiang Rou waited for her quietly, but after a long time, she said, "How was it when you first married Master Gu?"

"He?" Jiang Rou chuckled lightly, "At that time, I was also a hustler, and I raised an outer room outside. Later, after three years of marriage, I took several concubines."

Liu Yuru's eyelids moved, listening to Jiang Judao: "This is a common thing, but I was young and liked him, so I couldn't think of it, and I fought with him every day. Later, I went through a lot, two People have been together for many years, and finally came to this point. He accepted his heart and kept his concubines in the backyard. They were all poor people, so he stayed in the courtyard to live, and if he found a suitable family, he would send them a sum of money. went."

"Oh, I didn't ask you to follow me." Jiang Rou suddenly remembered that this girl was at the most sensitive time, and said hurriedly, "I can't be considered a smooth life, I just said it casually. That's it."

As she spoke, Jiang Rou said some old things again. Seeing that Liu Yuru was in a stable mood, she let her rest and got up by herself. Before leaving, she said, "Do you want me to bring Jiusi back?"

Liu Yuru opened her mouth and finally said, "That's it..."

Bring it back, then Gu Jiusi and her, I am afraid there will be no turning back.

Jiang Rou smiled, told a few words to take a good rest, then turned and left.

After Jiang Rou left, Liu Yuru sat in the room, she sat blankly without saying a word.

Yin Hong walked in and whispered: "Miss..."

Liu Yuru raised her hand and stopped Yinhong's words, she said softly, "Let me think about it."

Yin Hong did not dare to speak. She saw Liu Yuru stand up and slowly walked to the edge of the chess table.

She rarely played games before. Although her mother didn't stick to her, she always felt that her daughter's family was still based on women's red needles. It was only because she heard that Ye Shian loved to play chess that she studied it seriously. At this moment, she needed something to calm herself down, so she sat down in front of the chess table.

She looked very calm, and she couldn't see anything out of the ordinary. Yinhong didn't dare to disturb her, so she let her sit quietly.

She remembered the first time Liu Yuru was like this. It was Zhang Yueer who had just entered the house and wanted her and Su Wan to move out of the main courtyard. She cried and made trouble in front of Liu Xuan, but was beaten by Liu Xuan. Back with a slap in the face. She was like that that day, without saying a word, and shut herself in the room. After she came out, she would sweetly call her Auntie Zhang Yue'er, and she would be able to speak and speak well. However, before that, Yin Hong still remembered that Liu Yuru was actually a wild girl who could climb trees, like to play with slingshots, and would protect Su Wan and Liu Xuan from quarreling.

She didn't know what Liu Yuru would do this time, but she knew very well that Liu Yuru would definitely choose the best way.

Liu Yuru was sitting in front of the chess table, she twisted the pieces and played with herself quietly. When the chess pieces fell, she felt that everything about her seemed to be washed by a rainstorm, scorched in the fiery magma, and after being smashed to ashes, it was reborn again.

The most important ability in life is never how smart you can be in good times. It's how resilient you are in times of adversity.

She held the **** quietly, thinking slowly.

She knows that she is not top-notch in everything, except for the word tenacity, which is a bit more than ordinary people.

Able to adjust mentality quickly, learn quickly and adapt to the surrounding environment.

Just like when Zhang Yueer came to Liu's house, she could quickly change herself from a eldest lady to an ordinary lady, curb her hostility towards Zhang Yueer, and befriend her, under Liu Xuan and Zhang Yueer, also received pity.

How to be liked by others, she learned from Zhang Yueer; how to be a complimented lady, she learned from Ye's family.

She has an extraordinary ability to learn, and when she met Jiang Rou today, she was the type of woman she had never seen in her life. , to seriously think about all of Jiang Rou's logic.

She looked at the world from Jiang Rou's point of view.

She married a man she didn't like. This man was even worse than Gu Jiusi, because he was romantic and had many concubines. But she never gave up, and managed step by step, making this man a good husband with her for the rest of her life today.

I heard that in the early years, Mr. Gu was not wealthy, and even a little rambunctious, but now Gu Langhua is long-sleeved and good at dancing, which may also be due to Jiang Rou.

She harbors resentment, doesn't have the slightest rules, and talks with her without measure, but she can still neither get angry nor angry, stand on the other side's point of view, enlighten and persuade, and plan a way that is good for everyone.

But Jiang Rou was able to show her affection and reason with her, and hoped that she could really take care of her family.

Liu Yuru let out a long sigh of relief.

Be high and not be self-confident, and be low and not give up.

This kind of mind is rare for her.

However, it is difficult to calm down after all, she understands the reason, but it is difficult to restrain her emotions.

But she already knows that this emotion can't continue, it doesn't matter if a person is unlucky once, the fear is that after the bad luck, he will be trapped in emotions and then do wrong things again and again.

So she didn't speak, she just sat at the chess table and played the game repeatedly.

Then she asked Yin Hong to call over all the people who served Gu Jiusi in the past, and asked them to talk about Gu Jiusi's past in detail.

How did he grow up, what did he do, what kind of temperament did he have, what did he like.

She asked the other party to say, she listened quietly, the black and white chess pieces fell alternately, and in the sound of the falling chess, she slowly outlined Gu Jiusi's past and future in her mind.

She can probably figure out this person.

He is soft and kind, likes cats and dogs, and will feed wild cats and dogs on the roadside.

He is very loyal and has always been a knife to his brothers.

He has a dream of being a hero, and he often dreams of walking the rivers and lakes...

He tried his best to escape from the Gu Mansion, dug dog holes, climbed walls with ladders, and even made a lot of wall climbing tools; he also likes to hide private house money, and he hides all over the room A silver note to prevent his parents from using money to control him; he is very good at martial arts, originally his master had to bring many people to subdue him...

Liu Yuru desperately searched for this man's advantages, trying to objectively evaluate this man, his good and evil, whether he was really hopeless, or just too naive.

On the third day, she heard everything that should be heard, and the fire in her heart was extinguished as well.

She raised her eyes and finally said the first sentence in three days.

"Where is the eldest son?"

Hearing this, Yin Hong was stunned at first, then she reacted and stammered: "I...I'll find someone to inquire."

Liu Yuru nodded, and then asked Yinhong to prepare hot water, bathe, change clothes, and put on makeup.

When she inserted the last hairpin into the middle of her hair, the person who went to inquire about the news came back and said respectfully: "Young Madam, the eldest son is still in the Spring Breeze Building."

Liu Yuru was not surprised, Gu Jiusi used to gamble at the casino for a month and never came back, but now he went to the Spring Breeze Building and didn't move for three days, it was nothing.

She nodded, got up, and then went to see Jiang Rou and Gu Langhua first.

Jiang Rou and Gu Langhua heard that Liu Yuru was coming, Gu Langhua trembled with fright, he swallowed, and stopped teasing his parrot, turned around and said to Jiang Ju: "My eyelids are jumping so hard, I always feel panic."

Jiang Rou sighed, shook her head and said, "Let's just listen to the child's affairs, don't worry about it."

After a while, Liu Yuru came to the door, Jiang Rou and Gu Langhua sat in the upper seat, Liu Yuru respectfully saluted, Gu Langhua hurriedly got her up, and said to her: "Our Gu family doesn't have so many rules, Don't be too outspoken."

"Yuru is a junior, and there should be some rules."

Liu Yuru's face was calm, and her makeup made her look much better. She raised her head and said gently: "Yuru was unwell a few days ago, so I didn't come to serve tea to my parents-in-law and my mother-in-law. I hope my father-in-law and mother-in-law forgive me."

"It's none of your business," Gu Langhua got angry when he talked about this, frowned, "It's all to blame for that bastard. Yuru, you marry me, You have been wronged. Jiusi was not in good health when he was a child, so we didn't dare to take care of it. When we grew up, it was too late, but I didn't expect him to be so messed up. You wait for me to catch him back, and let him give it to him. You apologize!"

"Father-in-law is joking," Liu Yuru looked calm, not happy or dissatisfied with Gu Langhua's words, her voice was clear and gentle, and people who heard it calmed down, she said slowly, "Eldest son It has always been this kind of temperament, naive, and Yuru knows it. Yuru is married to the Gu family, that is, a member of the Gu family. If the eldest son can live well, that is enough. The eldest son likes to go out to play, then go out and play, or something."

Listening to this, Jiang Rou and Gu Langhua looked at each other, and Gu Langhua was even more afraid.

If Liu Yuru got angry directly, he hadn't panicked yet. Now that Liu Yuru said it so well, he intuitively told him that it was over.

Liu Yuru didn't know Gu Langhua's heart, she lowered her head, made a full gesture of respect, and continued: "Yuru came here today, firstly to meet with her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and secondly to get to know the family. The situation, I want to know if there is anything that needs Yuru's attention in the future in the Gu family."

"Nothing else," Gu Langhua said with consideration, "As long as you and Jiusi can live smoothly, in your spare time, just urge him to improve."

Listening to these words, Liu Yuru pondered in her heart, and hesitantly said, "Father-in-law means that he wants the eldest son to improve his studies? Have you told the eldest son what you mean?"

Liu Yuru knew that Gu Langhua should not have said it. If Gu Langhua had such thoughts long ago, with Jiang Rou and Gu Langhua's ability, could Gu Jiusi be disciplined like this?

"It's all the time," As expected by Liu Yuru, Gu Langhua didn't hide it, sighed, and said directly, "I used to think he was happy all his life, so he never asked for it. He went to study. But it's different now. I still hope that he can have some skills in the future. Even if the family can't protect him, he can protect himself."

"Father-in-law means, is there something wrong at home?"

Liu Yuru casts her gaze on Jiang Rou with doubts in her eyes. Jiang Rou understood what Liu Yuru meant, and she didn't turn around from Liu Yuru, she took it over and said, "Although the Gu family is a wealthy businessman in Yangzhou, it is actually rooted in Dongdu. My brother is the minister of officials in Dongdu, and now the political situation in Dongdu is unstable. , Your Majesty has not been in court for three months. My brother originally wanted Jiusi to enter the Eastern Capital, and then found him a half-official position, and then recommended him to Her Royal Highness the Princess for his future. We do not want Jiusi to scroll Because of these, I was in a hurry to find a marriage for Jiu Si."

Jiang Rou's words were not coherent, but Liu Yuru understood. The emperor will not go to court for three months, and it is very likely that there will not be much time. Then there will naturally be a dispute over the throne. And Gu Jiusi's uncle wanted to secure his position and marry a powerful princess. But…

Liu Yuru frowned, now that the emperor's heir is weak, and he has already set a prince early, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like there will be a battle for succession, what is the Gu family afraid of?

Liu Yuru thought about it, and the dream came to her mind—

"After King Liang rebelled, Fan Xuan led his troops into the Eastern Capital..."

"Because of being close to King Liang, he was domineering in Yangzhou..."

"It is the position of the emperor of course." Jiang Rou took a sip of tea and said lightly, "I can't talk about the relationship with the royal family, but I have a niece who belongs to King Liang. Side concubine."

Liu Yuru's heart jumped when she heard this.

Second time.

The thing in the dream came true for the second time! Is that really just a dream? Is everything really just a coincidence? !

Liu Yuru restrained her emotions, she picked up the teacup, and used the action of drinking tea to give herself space to think.

If that dream is real, how long will the Gu family have? If the Gu family falls, as Gu Jiusi's wife, can she still run away? !

Her sweat was in her hands, and after she put down the teacup, she finally said what she had prepared: "Now that something has changed at home, the situation is not as good as it used to be, the eldest son's temperament really needs to be changed. already."

"Men's family, not to mention the glory and wealth of the hero I, there should always be some skills that can be relied on, parents-in-law and mother-in-law think so?"
