Wuwang reminds book friends to rest their eyes

This pair of parents is really unreliable! However, she didn't expect much from the beginning, and Shu Huan was certainly not disappointed. She only watched her nose, nose, mouth, and mouth, but didn't pay attention to Xu Shi's face. , and sent her out the door respectfully.

No matter how ugly Xu's complexion was, when he arrived in the yard, he still smiled at Gu Xiran, first asked about his illness with concern, then asked him to take good care of his health like a spring breeze, and finally mentioned his own illness In order to come, he said a few auspicious words to wish him a long life.

Gu Xiran listened with a smile all the time, and answered a few words from time to time, her attitude seemed very gentle, so happy that Mrs. Xu praised her uncle for his good temper. In fact, only Shu Huan knows that he is a bad guy. While talking to Xu Shi, he also glanced at her narrowly. It seems that he has thoroughly understood Xu Shi's intentions. He clearly understood what she had just said to the Shu family couple in the hall.

A little embarrassing!

Shu Huan looked away, trying not to look at him, let alone the overly flattering smile on Xu's face.

She didn't care that the Shu family was poor, nor did she care about the low status of her parents, but she cared very much about their character.

Originally, she thought that maybe the Shu family was too poor to live on, or there was some unavoidable reason, so they married their daughter to celebrate the wedding, but now it seems that it is not the case at all! She still doesn't know what Shu Fu thinks, Xu's face is clearly written all over the word money!

Money, money

!

The only purpose is money!

After the celebration, if luck is unlucky and Gu Xiran dies, the dowry they accepted will not be refunded, as for the daughter, she will be left to fend for herself. If you're lucky, you can catch big fish with a long line, and if you have nothing to do, you can go to Gu's house with an excuse. When you go back, you won't be empty-handed...

Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little sad.

She felt that living in ancient times was tiring. Everyone around her seemed to have a delicate heart, and she was extremely sensitive to the world. Under protection, carefree, heartless.

She stared at the tip of her shoe in a daze, thinking about her parents that she might never see again, until Aunt Yun said: "It's getting late, the master and wife should have dinner before leaving."

Mrs. Xu hurriedly waved her hands and refused: "The two children in the family are still waiting for us to buy rice and go back to the pot. It's not easy to teach them to be hungry. You see, we originally wanted to see the old lady, so we will go back in a hurry I can't even take care of it anymore, let's say hello to Auntie for us later, and say that when we come back next time, we will go to say hello to her old man."

Ah, come again!

Shu Huan was a little depressed, and secretly decided that next time they came again, she would pretend to be sick!

Aunt Yun responded, she pursed her lips and smiled, called Xiangqian to her side and whispered a few words, Xiangxi turned and went to the West Wing. box.

Seeing Xiangxi handing the food box to Mrs. Xu, Aunt Yun smiled and said: "There is nothing good at home, this is a pastry I made by myself, if my wife doesn't mind it, I can take it home as a snack for the children. "

Xu's face was full of smiles, and she repeatedly praised Aunt Yun for her ingenuity and skill, and almost didn't praise her like a flower.

Shu Huan was a little stunned. If he dared to love her mother, would he be mean to her alone? She spent ten taels of silver and still hadn't gotten it right, but Aunt Yun got countless compliments in exchange for a box of pastries! However, when she thought of what Xu had taught her to deal with Aunt Yun, she sighed secretly again. This was probably the highest level of the legendary saying that there is honey in the mouth, a sword in the belly, and double-faced swords!

Just at this time, Gu Xiran glanced over with a half-smile, and the two looked at each other, Shu Huan hurriedly avoided his penetrating gaze, and went forward to carry the food box for Xu Shi: "I'll take you out. "

Aunt Yun stopped her and said: "It's a very hot day, Second Mistress just came back from inviting Ann not long ago, let's take a rest first, besides you are not familiar with the roads in this mansion, I think it would be better for me to send you out."

. "

Even Mrs. Xu secretly winked at her and said: "Go and do your work, don't miss the business."

The so-called business is to make shoes for Gu Xiran! God knows that she has touched the needle more than ten times since she was a child! But seeing Aunt Yun going out with the Shu family couple, she was still relieved after all.

Gu Xiran looked at her and smiled: "How do you feel?"

Shu Huan slipped out a sentence: "Near death..."

After finishing speaking, she was surprised by her confession.

Gu Xiran slightly raised his eyebrows, got up from the reclining chair and said, "Help me in."

Since there were maids by her side, she knew that she had slipped her tongue, and she had no intention of resisting, and obediently helped him into the house. It's really weird to say, she has been trying her best to keep a distance from Gu Xiran, but she doesn't know if it's because he has always defended her, she has to admit that she has an inexplicable trust in him in her heart, just like he is inexplicable It's the same as being nice to her.

After entering the room, there was no one around, so Gu Xiran smiled at her and said, "Do you not get along well with your stepmother?"

"Ah?" Shu Huan was completely taken aback. She always felt that Mrs. Xu treated her seemingly affectionately, but in fact she was cold, but she never thought it would be because of this. What about my own young children!

Gu Xiran raised his hand and shook it in front of her eyes: "Why are you so stupid?"

Shu Huan came back to his senses, and quickly covered it up: "No... nothing... I thought you didn't know she was my stepmother..."

Gu Xiran revealed a meaningful smile: "When proposing marriage, you must always know the family background of the other party! Not only do I know that you have a stepmother, but I also know that you have a pair of twin siblings."

Well, this news is not as shocking as the previous one. Shu Huan didn't have any special reaction, but he suddenly became more enlightened, and finally knew why the original owner was cruelly married into the Gu family by her parents to celebrate.

Here Gu Xiran continued to say: "Your twin siblings have just turned twelve years old, the younger sister is called Shu Yue, and the younger brother is called Shu Huai. It seems that your family is very comfortable and happy.

. "

"Pfft—" Shu Huan couldn't help laughing, luckily no one called Shu Shuang.

Gu Xiran glanced at her with a smile and said: "I heard that your mother died of dystocia, and your father continued the marriage when you were just one year old. Your stepmother thinks that you are a person with bad luck for killing your biological mother. You have been beaten and scolded since you were a child. The most serious one was the one you received when you were thirteen years old. You were beaten to death. Your stepmother still doesn’t want to see a doctor, if your father didn’t stop her A wandering doctor passing by, you have probably been reincarnated at this time."

It feels weird, as if listening to someone else's story.

No, no, I was actually listening to other people's stories!

Shu Huan memorized the experience of the original owner, while Gu Xiran kept saying, "Since that time, I don't know if your stepmother feels remorse or thinks that you will be blessed if you survive a catastrophe. I will beat you less, but I still scold you very badly... "

Having said that, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand, looking carefully.

"What are you doing?" Shu Huan was startled and wanted to withdraw his hand.

Gu Xiran let go of her hand, and smiled slightly: "Look, you still have a thin layer of calluses on your hands, it seems that you have worked a lot before getting married."

More than this! There are still some faint scars on her arms and thighs. At first, she thought it was the original owner who was naughty when she was a child, and accidentally fell and touched them. Now she knows that they were beaten by Mrs. Xu! Thinking of this, she suddenly became worried, Gu Xiran knew so much about the original owner, would she be aware that she was a fake

I'm really afraid that something will happen!

The next moment, Gu Xiran's gaze locked hers tightly: "I'm a little curious, you were used to being beaten and scolded since you were young, and your temper is like your father's. You have always been weak and shy, why now that you are married, you look so lively A lot more agile?"

This question came so suddenly, Shu Huan was unprepared, and immediately became speechless.
