Seriously speaking, the one who has the most patience with Liu Shuanghe in this room is Nian Shuang, who also liked to cry.
She began to dislike him, let alone others.
Chu Yunli was okay, she was just a guest and could go home when the time came. Gu Daoyan was similar to her, sitting obediently aside and playing with the handkerchief in her hand.
The most impatient one was Mrs. Liu.
She came to Chu Yunli to talk about something important, but before she could say a few words, her sister-in-law came in crying and couldn't get down to business for a long time. Seeing that she was crying sincerely, it was difficult to interrupt.
You can't let her continue crying, so you have to interrupt her if you don't want to, "Sister, don't cry. You haven't seen Nian Shuang for many days, so take her to the next door to reminisce about old times. I just have something to talk to Mrs. Gu."
Liu Shuanghe was overjoyed when he heard this, and pulled Gu Nianshuang away, and the two of them quickly disappeared from the door.
Mrs. Liu looked solemn, "Mrs. Gu, I came to you today because I want to talk about Nian Shuang's marriage."
Chu Yunli waved her hand, "I am the stepmother. Nian Shuang's grandparents and father are still here, so it is useless for you to discuss it with me."
"That's right," Mrs. Liu glanced at Gu Daoyan, "As long as you help the Liu family facilitate this marriage, the Liu family will also help when Daoyan discusses the marriage."
Chu Yunli blinked, "Dao Yan is just like Nian Shuang. The elders above are here, so why would he ask you to help?"
"If Mingren doesn't tell secrets, don't you want to marry Dao Yan to the Luo family?" Mrs. Liu said firmly, "To put it bluntly, in the eyes of Nian Shuang's father, the Luo family is not as good as our Liu family. If you want to get married, I'm afraid
It’s unlikely.”
"Mrs. Liu doesn't bother, I have no intention of marrying the Luo family." Of course, the Luo family should still have this idea.
The Luo family was indeed unwilling to marry Luo Manniang to the Gu family, but at that time it was Luo Manniang's father who made the decision. Now the head of the Luo family has been replaced by her brother. It has to be said that sometimes after brothers and sisters get married, their relationship is indeed no match for the father and daughter.
Regarding feelings, Luo's father didn't want to embarrass her, but the Luo family didn't necessarily do that now.
However, Chu Yunli is confident that he can convince the Luo family and prevent them from having the idea of getting married even though they are doing small things.
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Liu's face was full of surprise, "You don't want to win over your natal family? If it weren't for your relationship, the Luo family would not be qualified to marry a daughter of the Gu family even if they save for several lifetimes."
Mentioning her marriage, Gu Daoyan's cheeks turned slightly red, but she said nothing, lowered her head and continued to pull the veil.
Chu Yunli didn't want to continue arguing with her about her daughter's marriage, "I can't help you."
She stood up and said, "The scenery in Liu's yard is nice. I'll take a look."
After saying that, regardless of Mrs. Liu's expression, she took Gu Daoyan and went out.
She didn't forget about Gu Nianshuang. After going out, she went to the next door. Before she entered, she heard the sound of crying inside. Liu Shuanghe was crying hard, "That uncle of yours knows how to beat people, and he won't let me have a child.
I'm afraid that after I have my own child, it will be bad for his previous children... I can't eat well. Every meal is meat and vegetable, and sometimes the meat is smelly. The most important thing is that there are still people at your uncle's house.
There is a distant cousin who is still in her prime, and she doesn’t say we are married, so she lives with her without any embarrassment..."
Liu Shuanghe is nearly 30 years old. If her marriage is not delayed, she will become a grandmother in a few years after marrying into someone else's family. When she marries at this age, she can only be a stepmother.
"Aunt, my mother is also a step-mother. She didn't treat me lightly after giving birth to a child. Also, you lived in the Gu family for so many years and your status was embarrassing. Didn't she say anything?"
Across the door, Gu Nianshuang's voice was full of coldness.
Such indifference irritated Liu Shuanghe, "I didn't want to get married. I wanted to stay with you all my life! I have delayed the marriage for more than ten years because of you, and now the marriage is like this. You little heartless person, don't you?"
He said to comfort me and also made sarcastic remarks. "How is your stepmother? If I hadn't been with you, you would have been bullied by her, and you may not have grown up!"
At first, Gu Nianshuang felt a little pity for her, but after hearing her words, she calmed down more and more, "Aunt, do you dare to swear to God that you stayed in the Gu family only for me and that you had no other thoughts?
"
Liu Shuanghe cried and did not answer.
In fact, she didn't need to answer. Gu Nianshuang already had the answer in her heart, "Also, my mother is very good to me."
In fact, she secretly thought that her mother might have been better to her without her aunt, "She never thought of harming me, taught me to be strong, taught me rules, taught me how to deal with others and speak skills. And you never thought of these things."
Taught me. The only thing you taught me was to cry!"
"Cry weakly, the softer the better. And the reason why you teach me this way is just because you want my father to pay more attention to me and pay more attention to you. It will cause trouble for my mother!"
"I have grown up, and I will be able to tell who is good to me and who is not good to me! My mother is the best person in the world, and I will not allow you to slander her!"
She spoke without hesitation, which showed that this was what she was thinking. Liu Shuanghe was too angry to cry and scolded, "You girl, how can you be so careless? It's not like she doesn't have a daughter herself, so why should she be nice to you?"
?”
After a long while, Gu Nianshuang's voice came, "My father said that there will be people who are unconditionally good to me in this world, only my parents. I think this is true!"
"Aunt, you have your own life. From now on, just take care of yourself."
She opened the door and happened to meet the smiling eyes of Chu Yunli who was standing at the door. The corner of her mouth couldn't help but smile, "Mom, let's go to the garden to enjoy the flowers."
The stunned Liu Shuanghe finally came to his senses and shouted, "Nian Shuang, this mother-in-law and stepmother are different."
Chu Yunli smiled sweetly, "At least, I didn't use Nian Shuang for my own benefit. And you...do you dare to swear to God that you didn't?"
Liu Shuanghe slumped and took a step back. Looking at Nian Shuang who didn't look back, she realized more and more that the girl she had seen growing up was getting farther and farther away from her... Thinking of this, she shouted, "You said you didn't make any profit?
You asked her to distance herself from me, wasn't it for yourself?"
"No!" Chu Yunli slowly walked down the steps and walked out, "I just taught her to discern people's hearts and stay away from those who have ulterior motives for her. Now that she is alienated from you, the problem must be with you."
Just at this time, Mrs. Liu also went out, and happened to hear this sentence, and her face looked ugly.
In the past, the Gu family was very good to the Liu family, and they would help if they could. Later, Liu Shuanghe was kicked out for some reason, and the Gu family began to alienate at that time. If the Liu family could not marry Nian Shuang, when Gu Zong was gone and Gu Daoyu took charge of the family, the Liu family would definitely
There is no benefit at all.
After walking out of the yard, Chu Yunli whispered, "You two should be more careful."
When the mother and daughter returned to the yard, the steward was already inviting everyone to go boating in the lake.
The lake in the Liu family is not big, it is built into the house itself. Seeing the mother and daughter, the manager came over enthusiastically and said, "Madam specially ordered to leave a small boat for Mrs. Gu and the two cousins."
It’s a good boat, please give me your favor, madam.”
"I'm seasick, so I won't go." Chu Yunli randomly found a reason.
Gu Daoyan smiled and said, "I am also seasick, not to mention my sister. She is not in good health. Not only is she seasick, she is also carriage sick and cannot go."
Steward: "..."
I'm already seasick, and nothing I can say is appropriate.
The mother and daughter went to the waterside pavilion nearby and watched everyone boating. Not long after, Gu Nianshuang's uncle Liu Yuan came over with his two sons.
The two brothers, one nineteen and one seventeen years old, have not proposed marriage and are handsome in appearance.
Yes, the two of them look like boys and girls, are thin in stature, and have the elegant temperament of scholars. They look pretty good. They are exactly what many people call pretty boys nowadays.
I can't say that I'm ugly because I don't have a masculine look.
The two of them entered the waterside pavilion, first bowed to Chu Yunli, and then reminisced with Gu Nianshuang about the trees they had climbed and the flowers they had picked in the backyard.
Speaking of this, Gu Nianshuang's face became more smiley. When she was a child, she was brought back several times by Liu Shuanghe every year. She often played with these two cousins, and her feelings were real.
The boss, Liu Chong, smiled and said, "The little rabbits you raised were still there, but now they have become a group. Do you want to go and have a look, cousin?"
Hearing this, Gu Nianshuang became interested and asked, "Where is it?"
Before she left, she winked at Chu Yunli to reassure her.
As for these two pretty girls, Chu Yunli really didn't feel uneasy and let her go.
Next to her, Gu Daoyan was in high spirits, scratching her heart and liver, and lowered her voice and said, "Mom, I suspect those two cousins are going to be beaten!"
His tone was full of regret that he couldn't see it with his own eyes.
The Gu family will not agree to the Liu family's marriage, and the Liu family refuses to give up. Seeing that the marriage is hopeless, something will definitely happen. Of course you can avoid it, but if the Liu family is not allowed to give it a try, they will not give up. It won't happen today.
I will definitely try it someday.
Gu Nianshuang followed Liu Chong to the backyard. As she walked, her second cousin disappeared. She blinked, pretending not to know, and asked, "Cousin, are you here yet?"
"It's right in front." Liu Chong said calmly, "Don't worry, cousin. I will do everything you ask me to do since I was a child. In the future, if we are destined, I will also cherish you.
Whatever you ask me to do, I will do it for you."
He turned around and reached out to hold Gu Nianshuang's hand, "Cousin, will you let me take care of you?"
"You are my cousin. In my eyes, you are like a brother." Gu Nianshuang's eyes were sincere, "Let go, you will still be my brother from now on."
"I won't let go!" Liu Chong approached her and wanted to pull her into his arms, but he pulled hard... and couldn't pull her away.
It didn't matter if he couldn't pull it, he took another step forward, wanting to put the person in his arms, but before he could get close, he felt a pain in his waist. He lowered his head and found that at some point, a dagger had been pressed against his waist, because he
He leaned too fast and there was already blood oozing out from there.
Gu Nianshuang took a step back, her face full of innocence, "It's none of my business, you have to come over."
