"This thing is black jade ointment. It is an expensive healing ointment. This small bottle is worth eight thousand yuan. Don't say that you can afford such an ointment. Besides, this bottle belongs to me, Wu Jun Cheng Da
De Yaofang specially gave me something for the Gu family. There is a word "Gu" on this porcelain bottle, which was engraved when the porcelain bottle was fired. Where did this black jade paste come from? Did you pick it up again?" Gu Qian sneered.
road.
Li Hui had a big head. He injured his wrist that day, and Gu Qingning insisted on bandaging it. He used this black jade ointment. After using it, he carried it in his arms. He had no idea that this medicine was so precious and that it was
A special gift from the pharmacy to the Gu family.
Just now, the things were scattered on the ground. Han Yong only saw the silk handkerchief and did not notice the black jade paste. Just now, a nurse brought his things scattered on the ground and put them on the table, but Gu Qian got them. This was not the case.
Easy to explain.
"Say!" Gu Qian shouted.
Li Hui said softly: "I picked it up."
Gu Qian was stunned, then laughed angrily. He nodded and said: "Very good, are you teasing me? It's a pity, you have some talents, and I want to give you a chance to cultivate you. But although you are young, you are rich. You
You actually set your sights on me, and you dare to have any plans for Qing Ning in private? Then you are asking for death. Originally, I hoped that this was a misunderstanding and gave you a chance to explain, but you came to tease me. Then
What else are you talking about? Li Hui, you ruined yourself, so you don’t have to blame me. But don’t worry, I will order someone to take care of your mother, so you don’t need to worry."
Gu Qian's words were full of murderous intent. He had already decided to make this young man who dared to make evil ideas to his granddaughter disappear forever. The silk handkerchief and black jade ointment on Li Hui's body made it clear that it was Li Hui who seduced Qing Ning. With Li Hui
With his scheming intentions, how could a young girl like Qing Ning, who was inexperienced in the world, be his opponent? It can only be said that fortunately they discovered it in time, and they probably did not do anything to corrupt the family tradition.
Li Hui naturally heard the murderous intent in his words. Of course he also knew why. Gu Qian had already decided that he had committed a taboo by seducing Gu Qingning. Such a thing would never happen to the Gu family. Gu Qingning will be in the future
She must marry into a wealthy family as a bargaining chip for family marriage.
People like me are as humble as dust in the eyes of the Gu family. They are absolutely not allowed to do anything that exceeds the rules, or even have unrealistic ideas. If they do, they will die. This is the rule of this era.
.
"What else do you have to say?" Gu Qian said coldly.
Li Hui shook his head and said softly: "Dong Weng, I really have nothing to say. Since you believe that I have an agenda, it's useless no matter how I explain it. No matter how I explain it, you will think it is just sophistry. I will do nothing about this matter.
Explain, because everything is false. If I explain, it will spread the news. Therefore, when Manager Han and the eldest son ask, I will not tell them a word. Because they are here just to publicize this matter, how can I
Can they fulfill their wishes?"
Gu Qian glared at Li Hui and said, "How did you know they were trying to publicize this matter? Are you going to play your tricks in front of me again? I'm afraid you are crazy for slandering the Gu family in front of me."
Li Hui smiled bitterly and said: "Dong Weng, although I am not deeply involved in the world and have a humble background, I am not a fool. Some things are obvious at a glance, and it is not difficult to see clearly. Is this the case? Dong Weng should see it more clearly than me.
There is no need to say more. Even if they have no publicity purpose, I will not give any explanation. Because it is related to the reputation of Miss Qingning and the reputation of the Gu family. There is a saying that you can never wake up someone who is pretending to sleep. The more you explain,
, the explanation becomes even more unclear. If Dong Weng wants to know the truth, he will naturally know how to find out, instead of asking me. I am a soft-spoken person, and what I say cannot be trusted. Therefore, it is better not to say anything."
Gu Qian frowned and stared at Li Hui for a moment, then shouted in a cold voice: "Come here, take Li Hui down, lock him up in a side room and keep him under guard until he is released."
Several nursing staff came forward and took Li Hui away, locked him in a small room and guarded him.
Gu Qian walked around the flower hall, and soon turned around and walked to the back hall. After passing the third entrance, he came to the courtyard door of a beautiful small building in the fourth entrance, and heard laughter coming from the grass in front of the building.
Gu Qian stood at the door of Chuihua and saw Gu Qingning playing on the swing with several maids. The swing was flying high, Gu Qingning's green skirt was flying, her hair was flying, and she was smiling happily.
One of the maids saw Gu Qian and quickly reported to Gu Qingning. The other maids immediately stood up solemnly and lowered their hands in salute.
Gu Qingning jumped off the swing, walked up quickly with a red smile, and called out sweetly: "Ah Weng, why are you here?"
Gu Qian smiled and said: "Let's see you. It's such a hot day, but you are swinging? Your hair is messy like a madman. You are fifteen years old, and you will marry your husband soon, and you are still so crazy.
What?"
Gu Qingning pursed her lips and said: "What did Aweng say? Why are you looking for your husband's family? Didn't you wake up from the wine last night? Humph!"
Gu Qian smiled and said, "What? What's so taboo about this? Male students should marry, and female students should marry. Don't you want to marry someone else?"
Gu Qingning said: "If you don't marry, I will stay with Aweng for the rest of my life. I don't want to marry."
Gu Qian chuckled and said, "What a silly thing. Don't worry, Aweng will find you a husband in the future. Among the children of the Lu family, the Zhu family, and the Zhang family, whoever Qing Ning likes, Aweng will teach you how to make your wish come true."
I think there are some good ones among the children of the Lu family, and they are the right ones from Yemen."
Gu Qingning screamed, her face turned red, she stretched out her hand and beat her grandfather's arm and shouted: "What did Aweng say? What happened today? Why do you keep saying these things? If you say anything else, Qingning will ignore you."
"
Gu Qian chuckled and said, "No more, no more."
Gu Qingning took Gu Qian's arm and came to the lobby on the first floor of the small building. The decoration here was luxurious and colorful. Gu Qingning's small building was decorated completely according to her preferences, and it was her little world.
The maid brought tea, and Gu Qian waved his hand and ordered the maids to leave.
Gu Qingning felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. He stood aside and looked at Gu Qian and said, "Is there something wrong with Aweng looking for Qingning?"
Gu Qian pondered for a moment, then reached out and took out two things from his sleeves and placed them on the table. He asked in a deep voice: "Qing Ning, do you recognize these two things?"
Gu Qingning looked at the black jade paste and the square silk handkerchief on the table, and said in surprise: "Why... why are these things in Awen's hands?"
Gu Qian said in a deep voice: "Just tell me, are these things yours?"
Gu Qingning said: "It's mine. But how did it end up in Aweng's hands? It shouldn't be... it should be..."
Gu Qian said: "It should be in Li Hui's hands, right? You gave these two things to Li Hui, right?"
Gu Qingning was a little panicked and stammered: "Yes... but it's not... Ah Weng, this thing..."
Gu Qian's face became serious and he whispered: "Qing Ning, Aweng asked you, how did Li Hui defraud you of these things? Tell the truth and don't hide it. When did you get along alone?
What did I say to you? Did I do anything inappropriate? You must tell me so."
Gu Qingning's face turned red, her ears were red with embarrassment, and she said coquettishly: "Ah, what are you talking about?"
Gu Qian said in a deep voice: "Qing Ning, Aweng is not joking with you. This matter is very important. You must answer truthfully."
Gu Qingning was stunned and suddenly said: "Ah Weng, how did you get these things? You didn't do anything to Li Hui, right? This matter has nothing to do with him. Ah Weng, you can't accuse him unjustly
."
Gu Qian said coldly: "How can I, the daughter of the Gu family, be coveted by a lowly person like Li Hui? He overestimates his capabilities and has ulterior motives, and deserves to be severely punished. Tell me how he deceived your trust. This
You can’t do anything as you please.”
Gu Qingning couldn't help but smile bitterly, and at the same time he realized that he might have harmed Li Hui. A Weng and the others must have had a misunderstanding. I wonder what is happening to Li Hui now.
"Ah Weng, where are you thinking? Well, Qing Ning told the truth. In order to add a surprise to Ah Weng's birthday, Qing Ning thought of making a fountain landscape on the rockery of the lotus pond to make Ah Weng happy.
But I don’t know these things, and neither do the craftsmen at home, so I thought of Li Hui. When he diverted water for irrigation, he could make the water flow back, and I saw it with my own eyes. So Qing Ning thought he must have a way, so he asked
He helped make it."
Gu Qian frowned and said, "Did you ask him for it, or did he take the initiative?"
Gu Qingning stamped her feet and said angrily: "Of course I came to him to ask for his help. He usually avoids us. Hasn't he followed you around for more than a month? Ah Weng, please recall, where is he?
Didn't the female family members of Nanzhai hide away when they first met her? When Qingning asked him for help, he still refused. He said that he could not enter or leave the inner house, let alone stay in the inner house for a long time. He wanted me to report it.
Weng or grandma, please ask for permission. However, Qing Ning wants to give Aweng and everyone a surprise, so how can I tell you. Isn’t that not a surprise? "
Gu Qian's face relaxed slightly and he said in a deep voice, "Oh? Did he refuse? It's... it's... a little surprising."
Gu Qingning said softly: "Yes. Qingning begged him for a long time, and finally forced him to help me, and he agreed."
Gu Qian frowned and said, "Then what's going on with this silk handkerchief and black jade paste?"
Gu Qingning shouted: "The stems of the lotus leaves are full of sharp thorns. He went into the water to install them, and the sharp thorns scratched his hands and feet. I saw his wrists bleeding, and I felt really sorry, so I took plaster to stop the bleeding. This silk handkerchief belongs to me
The guy who bandaged his wrist said he would go back and clean it before giving it back to me. It was just a silk handkerchief, so what if I didn’t give it back? I almost forgot about it. Oh, please don’t be suspicious.
Don't embarrass Li Hui. He is kind-hearted to help, but he is not disrespectful to me at all."
Gu Qian finally understood the whole story and felt a little embarrassed. It turned out that he had misunderstood Li Hui. According to Qing Ning's care, this matter was not Li Hui's fault at all. Even if he did enter the inner house, he did not take the initiative.
