After eating the pastries, Gu Rujing glanced at the poor Gu Mingzhu and told her to finish copying the poems before tomorrow night, and then go back with the two little guys.
After Gu Rujing returned, she pounced on Yan Jia again.
But his brows became more and more wrinkled, as if he had encountered a bottleneck, and his face didn't look very good.
At this time, Gu Chenying took Lu Qingling outside and whispered: "Don't ask about Yan Jia recently. Fourth brother must be in a bad mood."
Gu Qingling was a little puzzled: "Is it because Miss Mingzhu didn't memorize the poems?"
Gu Chenying sighed: "It's not because of this...it's because of that big bastard from the Jin family. Forget it, you don't even know."
Jin family?
Gu Qingling tilted her head: "If you tell me, won't I know?"
It seems to make sense.
Gu Chenying held her chin and thought for a while, then slowly opened her mouth.
The Jin family and the Gu family usually have little contact, but when Jin Xuanming was still there, he once rescued Gu Rujing from a monster.
No one knows what happened between Jin Xuanming and Gu Rujing. Because even though Gu Rujing has experienced such a life-and-death situation, he still treats others very coldly and seems to have no energy.
But from time to time, he would make some useful Yanjia and send them to Jin Xuanming, who would accept them without fail, until Jin Xuanming died unexpectedly.
Gu Chenying's face couldn't help but turned cold, and he said expressionlessly: "After Jin Xuanming died, the fourth brother will no longer send Yan Jia there."
But no one expected that the Jin family would come to ask for it!
"Xuan Ming saved your life anyway, but because he died, do you think you don't have to repay your kindness?" Jin Changyuan came menacingly, and did not feel anything wrong at all.
But they were reasonable after all, so Gu Rujing didn't say much and sent Yan Jia over as usual.
But the Jin family's demands became more and more excessive. They treated him as free labor, were picky about his Yanjia in every possible way, and even smashed his works in public, severely humiliating Gu Rujing.
But Gu Rujing didn't say anything, she just silently put away the things on the ground, and after staying up all night for several days and nights, she sent the new Yan Jia over.
Then as expected, it was smashed to pieces by Jin Changyuan.
Hearing this, Gu Qingling waved her fist angrily: "That person went too far!"
Gu Chenying had a stern look on her face: "The key is that Fourth Brother doesn't let us take care of this matter... Tsk, I'm so angry. Do you know? In a few days, it will be the day when Fourth Brother sends Yan Jia away.
I guess I will be bullied by that bastard Jin Changyuan again."
After the two little guys muttered for a while, they walked back quietly.
Through the window, Gu Rujing's thin and slender back was slightly bent, with a drop of sweat hanging on the tip of her nose. She was sitting among a pile of parts, concentrating on polishing.
He was so serious that the broken hair on his forehead was soaked with sweat, and he accidentally cut his finger with the file, causing blood to flow out immediately.
But Gu Rujing had long been used to it, so she picked up the gauze and wrapped it randomly, as if nothing happened.
As for his hands, new wounds overlap old wounds, as well as coagulated blood scabs.
Such a picture fell into Gu Qingling's mind, causing her to toss and turn, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
When having breakfast the next day, as soon as Gu Qingling was led downstairs by Bai Yin, she heard Gu Yunye's angry voice.
"What does the Jin family mean by this? Do you really have no shame at all?" He slammed the table, and when Gu Cangyin glanced at him, he sat down again with a dark face.
"I'll just go over there." Gu Rujing's face was a little pale, and her eyes were tinged with black and blue. She probably didn't sleep all night again.
"Rujing, until now, are you still unwilling to let us interfere in this matter?" Gu Cangyin spoke, and everyone was quiet for a moment.
But he didn't answer. He nodded, drank the last mouthful of porridge, got up and left silently.
This atmosphere... is so heavy.
Gu Qingling rubbed her eyes and walked up to her second brother, her voice filled with confusion as she had just woken up: "Second brother, don't be angry, leave it all to me!"
Gu Cangyin lowered his eyes, and there was a smile in his light-colored eyes, but he did not take her words to heart.
The relationship between the Jin family and Rujing is so complicated that even Gu Cangyin herself finds it a little tricky, not to mention her.
Not to mention this year...
In order to make more money, the Jin family actually decided to call all the people he had helped over on the anniversary of Jin Xuanming's death.
On the surface, I wanted to pay tribute with them and comfort the soul of Jin Xuanming.
In fact, they are forced to bring all kinds of gifts to make their home more attractive.
The memorial ceremony is false, but the offering is true.
This is also the reason why Gu Yunye is angry.
"How can there be such a shameless family? When Nuwa patched up the sky, did she use the Jin family's face to patch up the sky?"
Gu Qingling was confused: "Can't I not go?"
Sometimes, she really can't understand what adults think.
Don’t say you like what you like, don’t say you hate what you hate. I want to refuse, but force myself to agree.
Gu Yunye slumped down on the chair and sighed: "How can it be so simple? They say that a drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring of water. You have received favors from others and did not attend the memorial ceremony. If these words spread, your spine will be shaken.
You broke it."
For some reason, Gu Qingling had a vague feeling of being kidnapped by the Jin family.
She shook her little head, stopped eating, and ran to Gu Rujing on her short legs.
Gu Rujing is still polishing his armor.
"Fourth brother! Are you going to Jin's house? Can you take me with you?"
Gu Rujing paused and pursed her crimson thin lips: "No. Just stay at home. It's not a fun place."
As expected, even if everyone came to attend the memorial ceremony, Jin Changyuan would still not stop suppressing him.
He didn't want anyone from the Gu family to see his miserable appearance.
Not even death.
The door of Yanjia's room was closed in front of Gu Qingling's eyes, and she was slightly stunned.
At this time, Gu Chenying came over and touched her chin with a serious face: "Little sister, what do you say?"
Gu Qingling took a deep breath, her bright eyes full of determination: "Don't abandon, don't give up! We must help Fourth Brother!"
The two little guys looked at each other and hit it off immediately!
Gu Rujing, who was arranging her armor, suddenly felt a chill down her back and had a bad premonition.
The Jin family almost ordered someone to deliver the news early, with an extremely arrogant tone, telling him to remember to arrive on time and not to be an ungrateful and despicable person.
Because of Gu Rujing's resistance, the Gu family did not send anyone to accompany him, but only helped load his armor onto the carriage.
While Gu Rujing was packing her things in Tingyun Pavilion, two small figures came around from behind the carriage.
"Our family and the Jin family are not connected to the teleportation array, so the fourth brother will definitely let Tuotuo Bird pull him and fly there." Gu Chenying muttered as she came to the sleeping Tuotuo Bird.
This is a huge tall bird, bigger than a green bird, with fluffy and soft feathers that can bury them both.
However, this Tuotuo bird is also extremely sensitive. After noticing the presence of the two people, it suddenly woke up, spread its big wings and howled!
Seeing this, Gu Chenying quickly took out a wrapped straw cake.
Tuotuo Bird took a look, and a hint of disdain flashed in his black bean-like eyes.
You want to bribe me with this? Let me tell you, even if I jump from here and die outside, I will not take a bite of your cake——
Gu Qingling took the straw cake and threw it into the Tuotuo bird's mouth accurately!
"Gah?" The tuotuo bird calmed down and chewed with its big mouth.
