Oh my god, can you play like this?
Chapter 42: Everything is ruined
The eldest lady saw her daughter's expression change, and knew that Gu Nanwan understood what she meant, so she continued speaking.
"Although my brother has offended your mother-in-law and frightened your father-in-law, why did he do this? Isn't it to make your life comfortable and pleasant in the future, so that no one will make things difficult for you?
He is a man, he doesn't care about what happens in the backyard or what kind of life you lead, he just needs to focus on healing his own injuries.
But look, when he came back with injuries all over his body, the first thing he did was to ask about how you were doing.
Knowing that your condition was not good, he ignored his own serious injuries and was determined to fight with your unruly mother-in-law.
Only if you hurt your mother-in-law once will she realize how powerful you are and know that she will never bully you again no matter what.
As long as your brother is around, your mother-in-law will not dare to look down on you.
Your brother has planned so much for you, you can't be discouraged first, that would be too unfair to everything he has done for you."
Gu Nanwan immediately said, "I know, mother. I know that my brother did this for me. I... I... I just feel sorry for my husband."
The eldest lady smiled and said, “Knowing that you and your wife have a good relationship, it’s inevitable that you feel sorry for him.
But mother thinks there is nothing wrong with what you did. Even if your father were still alive, he might not be able to do better than you.
You know very well that you and your wife have a good relationship now, which is why your son-in-law did not accept the concubine arranged by his mother.
But the feelings between the two of you can't be as strong as fire and oil forever. It will fade. After another five or ten years, when the feelings between you two slowly fade, will he still refuse?
Aren’t you afraid that one day you’ll be angry at Yin Heng’s attitude towards this matter? Isn’t it also for your future?
And haven’t you worried about this yourself?
Everything I am doing now is telling everyone in the Shangshu Mansion that you, Miss Gu Nanwan of the General's Mansion, cannot be bullied."
Gu Nanwan looked up at her mother and nodded firmly, "Mom, you know all this. I know that my brother is doing this for my own good. I will not destroy the power of our general's mansion."
Gu Nanwan is not a person who does not know right from wrong. She is just born in this ancient time and is too bound by ancient thoughts.
No matter who you are, you have been instilled with the idea of respecting your husband as your God and being filial to your parents-in-law since birth. No one has ever told you to break this idea. It is not easy for Gu Nanwan to figure this out so quickly.
Even in modern society, aren't there so many people who favor boys over girls and support their brothers? Isn't this all caused by their parents instilling such ideas in them since childhood?
The eldest lady touched Gu Nanwan's hair with satisfaction, "I'm glad you understand."
The eldest lady has experienced a lot. As a widow who has supported the general's mansion alone for so many years, she was able to change her mind so quickly and keep up with Gu Lanzhi's footsteps.
The mother and daughter were chatting in the house, while Gu Lanzhi was basking in the sun comfortably in his yard.
"Master, the Fourth Young Master has gone out." The servant came to Gu Lanzhi and reported.
"Yeah." Gu Lanzhi responded softly, without saying anything else.
It is normal for Gu Shurui to leave the house. If he doesn't leave the house, how can he hook up with the fifth prince! Gu Lanzhi gave Gu Shurui a very tight time, only half a month, how could he not seize it!
But Gu Lanzhi knew in his heart that if Gu Shurui went out today, there would be no effect, or he might not even be able to see the Fifth Prince.
Just as Gu Lanzhi expected, Gu Shurui waited at the palace gate for a long time before the Fifth Prince came out of court. Gu Shurui ran to the Fifth Prince's carriage regardless of anything.
But before Gu Shurui could speak to the Fifth Prince, the Fifth Prince got into the carriage like a loach. At the same time, Gu Shurui was stopped by the Fifth Prince's servant and did not approach the Fifth Prince's carriage.
"Fifth Prince, Shu Rui has something to say to you." Gu Shu Rui called out hesitantly, but the lowered curtain told him clearly that the Fifth Prince did not want to talk to him.
No matter how Gu Shurui called out to the Fifth Prince, the servant did not let Gu Shurui get close to the carriage, and the Fifth Prince had no intention of letting Gu Shurui get close.
Gu Shurui understood in his heart that, just as Gu Lanzhi had told him before, the Fifth Prince was going to abandon him and sever ties with him.
Gu Shurui felt bitter, but what could he do?
By following the Fifth Prince, Gu Shurui and his mother could continue to live and stay in Kyoto, but if he could not marry the Fifth Prince as Gu Lanzhi requested, then it would be unclear what the future would be like for him and his mother.
Although he and the Third Madam felt that Gu Lanzhi would not kill them directly, it was still very easy for Gu Lanzhi to prevent them from ever returning to Kyoto and keep them in a remote place forever.
After struggling with the fifth prince's servant for a while, Gu Shurui could only leave dejectedly. There was no point in struggling any further.
However, the fact that Gu Shurui came to see the Fifth Prince was seen by many court officials. But no one was in the mood to pay attention to Gu Shurui and the Fifth Prince. They all just glanced at them casually and went to see what was going on with Minister Yin.
Mo Yi was not vague at all. As soon as he saw Minister Yin leaving the palace, he parked his carriage next to Minister Yin's carriage. He quickly laid out all the gifts sent by the Minister's wife and waited for Minister Yin to come over.
Shangshu Yin and Yin Heng had only taken a few steps out of court when they saw things scattered on the ground in front of the carriage.
At first, both of them were stunned for a moment, but when they saw Mo Yi standing beside them, they both figured out what was going on at the same time.
Minister Yin originally wanted to step forward and stop Mo Yi from speaking, but how could Mo Yi let Minister Yin succeed!
Mo Yi spoke loudly about the visit of the Shangshu Madam to the General's Mansion, and spoke even louder about the gifts that the Shangshu Madam had brought, in order to let more court officials know what inferior things the Shangshu Madam had brought when she went to the General's Mansion.
As Minister Yin listened to what Mo Yi said and looked at the things placed next to the carriage, he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. He hated that stupid woman so much in his heart.
But when Mo Yi said, "Our general's mansion is small and we can't afford to offend the minister's wife, who is like a big Buddha," Minister Yin's blood almost ran cold.
The general asked his servants to do this at the palace gate. He was not saying that the general's mansion did not welcome the minister's wife, but was telling Minister Yin that the general's mansion did not welcome Minister Yin!
Before the court session today, some colleagues were congratulating Shangshu Yin. The general had returned to the court, and as a relative of his, he could benefit from it and secure his position as the Minister of Works.
Now, everything is ruined because of that stupid woman!
