MTL - On the Day the Scumbag Got Married, I Lay Flat and Became His Sister-in-law-Chapter 14 Insufficient hearts
Chapter 14 Insufficient hearts
Gu Xiyan didn't want to stay for a long time either, she got up and walked to the door, then looked back at Liu Junyan: "Whether my sister believes it or not, I never thought of snatching my mother from my sister."
She calls Xiao Gu Shi mother now because Xiao Gu Shi is indeed kind to her. But she knew that no matter how much Little Gu sympathized with her, when there was a conflict of interest between her and Liu Junyan, it was Liu Junyan that little Gu would protect.
"Anyway, I don't like my sister. Even if my sister gave me all the royal tribute fruits, I don't like it. My sister should not use these small favors to bribe me. Zijuan, see off." Liu Junyan never looked at Gu Xiyan squarely.
Qiu Shi silently accompanied Gu Xiyan for a while, "It's been so many years, isn't the girl sad?"
Why put a hot face on the third girl's cold ass?
Even the little Gu family who adopted the girl didn't have any sincerity towards the girl.
The girl grew up in the midst of loveless discrimination. Even if the marriage was resigned by the King of Qin and robbed by Liu Chaoyan, the people in the Hou family thought it was just normal.
"Third sister said that she doesn't like me, but she is one of the few people in this family who is gentle to me. I used to be too lacking in love." Only a little bit of warmth can be used as a life-saving rope.
Gu Xiyan saw Qiu Shi suddenly wiped her tears, and knew that this girl was feeling sorry for her.
"It's all over, why are you crying? People will think I'm bullying you girl." Gu Xiyan gently wiped away Qiu Shi's tears.
Qiu Shi hastily wiped away tears, "I am just too happy, the girl will get better and better in the future."
The girl is such a gentle and tough person, she just lost herself before, so she can't find her way, and the girl will never get lost again in the future.
After dinner, the fourth girl Liu Huiyan and the fifth girl Liu Meiyan came to Xiyuan.
Liu Huiyan is fourteen years old this year, and she was born by Aunt He of Wanqinghou. Liu Meiyan is half a year younger than Liu Huiyan, and she was born by Aunt Zhao of Wanqinghou.
They usually disdain to deal with Gu Xiyan, but seeing that Gu Xiyan got the tribute fruit from the imperial court today, they couldn't sit still, they just wanted to taste the tribute fruit from the imperial court.
Chunhua and Qiushi couldn't put on a good face when they saw these two concubine girls. Usually, they often ridiculed their girls, but today they ran over eagerly, because they just wanted to taste the delicious tribute fruit?
Gu Xiyan was generous, she asked Shen's mother to wash some tribute fruits, and Liu Huiyan and Liu Meiyan ate them very bluntly.
What made Qiu Shi angry the most was that the two didn't even say "thank you" after eating, and planned to leave after eating.
Liu Huiyan is very pampered on weekdays. After eating the fruit, she smiled and said: "Eldest sister can't finish eating anyway, why don't you let my fifth sister and I help elder sister bring some tribute fruits back?"
Gu Xiyan smiled with a good temper: "Fourth younger sister is polite."
She turned to Chunhua and said: "It's dark and the road is not easy to walk, you go see the two girls off."
Liu Meiyan saw that Gu Xiyan was not up to the mark, and said sarcastically: "Elder sister, don't be ignorant of good and bad. Fourth sister and I are willing to help elder sister. It is the blessing of elder sister. If you miss this village, you won't have this shop!"
Qiu Shi was so angry that his face flushed red, how could there be such shameless people in this world?
Gu Xiyan looked at Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan steadfastly, with the same smile on her face, but her beautiful eyes were as calm as a millennium deep pool.
Under Gu Xiyan's gaze, Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan's arrogance gradually faded away, and they dared not look directly at Gu Xiyan.
"I am willing to give the two younger sisters a taste of the imperial bestowed fruit, because I am in a good mood. If I am not willing to give the two younger sisters a taste, will the two younger sisters have to go to the palace to sue the imperial court?" Gu Xiyan put the teacup on the tea table up, with a muffled sound.
The whole living room suddenly fell silent, without a sound.
"To be a human being is not only about duty, but also contentment. What do the two sisters think?"
The light flickered faintly, blurring Gu Xiyan's facial features, revealing a little coldness, making Liu Meiyan and Liu Huiyan feel chills down their backs.
They dare not say a word, you push me, I push you to leave Xiyuan.
As soon as the two left, Qiu Shi said angrily, "A girl shouldn't feed a dog to those two!"
She was so **** off, she had never seen such a shameless and despicable thing.
"Worthy people and trivial things are also worthy of your anger?" Gu Xiyan shook her head.
She just wanted to get rid of the two concubine girls quickly, so she took some tribute fruits to get rid of them.
She just got back the dowry left by her mother today. She will go out of the house tomorrow, and she has to check the account books tonight. It looks like she is going to stay up late.
That night, Gu Xiyan was busy until midnight and still couldn't read through the account books of several shops. Later, even Shen's mother couldn't stand it and persuaded her, so she went to bed and fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.
Early the next morning, Gu Xiyan went to Zaohui Hall to pay her respects, and returned to Xiyuan to start busy again.
Near noon, Gu Xiyan left the Hou's mansion.
During the Great Jin Dynasty, the folk customs were open, and men and women could sit together, and it was not restricted for women to go out.
However, both Chunhua and Qiushi knew that their girls were beautiful, and they had no status in the Hou's mansion, and they didn't have a carriage to ride in, so they specially put on a veiled hat for Gu Xiyan to go out.
Gu Xiyan hadn't left the Marquis Mansion for a long time, so she couldn't help but take a few extra glances at the bustle on the street. Later, I remembered that I had something important to do today, so I hurried to Jixianglou.
The person in charge of Jixiang Building is surnamed Wu and named Tong. He received the news early in the morning that Gu Xiyan was coming, so he waited early to greet him at the door.
Gu Xiyan saw that Wu Tong didn't say hello, so she went to the third floor without squinting.
She had confessed to Wu Tong before that with Mo Laixu's tricks, she didn't want outsiders to know that she was the shopkeeper behind Jixianglou, but Wu Tong refused to listen.
When Wu Tong followed up to the east wing on the third floor, she repeated again, Wu Tong should be yes again and again.
"Lady Su Er will come later, bring me to this wing, and you go and do your work." Gu Xiyan ordered.
Wu Tong was secretly amazed, the last time I saw Miss Gu was half a year ago, although the girl has a business mind, she seemed listless.
When I saw it today, it was as if I had been reborn. People looked very gentle, but the momentum was extremely strong, which is weird.
Two quarters of an hour later, Su Mei came to the third floor and met Gu Xiyan.
Seeing Wu Tong's respectful and polite manner towards Gu Xiyan, she secretly wondered: "Could it be that the girl is the behind-the-scenes shopkeeper of Jixianglou?"
