Oh my god, can you play like this?

Chapter 50 Too much is not enough

Gu Lanzhi didn't react after hearing Yin Heng's words, he just smiled very calmly.

It is true that Gu Lanzhi was the reason why Minister Yin treated his wife in this way, but the root cause was that the Minister's wife had already lost Minister Yin's heart!

This is the sadness of women in ancient times. Life and death, honor and disgrace all depended on men.

If a man likes you, everything will go smoothly and everything will go as you wish. Everyone in the house will praise you, respect you and fawn on you.

If a man no longer likes you, then you are just a discarded rag and he would even dislike using you to wipe the table.

In fact, Minister Yin was just using Gu Lanzhi to throw his wife away. Minister Yin didn't have deep feelings for his wife to begin with, and he just used this incident to completely abandon his wife.

After all, Shangshu Yin is a second-rank official and cannot divorce his wife without reason. Even though he is very tired of his wife, he has to grit his teeth and give his wife dignity and not lose face.

Before he was promoted to Shangshu, he dared not do anything to his wife. Although promotion would not depend on whether your inner courtyard was too unpeaceful, but if your inner courtyard was not peaceful, you would definitely not be included in the promotion list.

After all, if you can’t even manage your own family affairs, how can you be a good official!

Now, he could just imprison his wife. He no longer had to worry about that woman causing him trouble and embarrassment, and he no longer had to see that face that he hated.

Therefore, Gu Lanzhi's dissatisfaction with the Minister's wife this time actually helped Minister Yin.

Gu Lanzhi, the eldest lady, and Yin Heng all understood this principle, otherwise why didn't Yin Heng ask for half a point for his mother? That's his mother!

The Shangshu’s wife was not nice to others, but she loved and cared for her own son and brought him up with great care. How could Yin Heng not love his mother!

But when Yin Heng grew up and saw how his mother handled things, he really didn't like it.

Before, Yin Heng was just like that because that was his mother, no matter what his mother did, Yin Heng never had a bad attitude, at most he would just reject his mother.

But it was Yin Heng's attitude that angered the general.

There are not so many ways to have the best of both worlds in this world, so Yin Heng had no choice but to give up his mother and choose his wife. At worst, he could go to the Buddhist temple to see his mother more often, say a few good words to his wife, and ask the servants at home not to neglect his mother too much.

Anyway, Gu Nanwan will have the final say on matters concerning the inner courtyard from now on. Yin Heng knows his wife well, and even if Yin Heng doesn't say anything, Gu Nanwan will never treat her mother-in-law harshly.

This is also the reason why Yin Heng chose to stand on his wife's side so readily.

"Since you have handed it over to Wanwan to manage, then Wanwan, you should not stay at home for too long. You should go home quickly to familiarize yourself with the affairs of the mansion.

In the past, the Shangshu's wife was in charge of the household affairs. Wanwan, you have never been involved in this. If you don't understand something, you should humbly ask your mother-in-law for advice, understand?" The eldest lady tried to smooth things over gently.

The eldest lady could see that her brother was still not satisfied with Minister Yin's handling of the matter, but as too much is as bad as too little, the eldest lady was satisfied with the result.

Moreover, my brother has just returned to the court and has already caused such a big fuss. The eldest lady is afraid that my brother will be too aggressive and give people a chance to talk about him. Now it is good like this.

"I know mother. I will take good care of her and ask her for advice if I don't understand something."

Gu Nanwan was also a smart person. She not only answered her mother's questions, but also gave Yin Heng a reassurance.

Hearing Gu Nanwan's words, Yin Heng looked at Gu Nanwan with gratitude, but at the same time he felt that he had wronged Gu Nanwan.

If he had explained the problems to his mother earlier and taken a firmer attitude, the situation would not have ended up like this today.

Ultimately, it was all because of his own inaction.

Gu Nanwan quietly held Yin Heng's hand under the table and looked at him tenderly.

The eldest lady and Gu Nanwan have already expressed their opinions. What else can Gu Lanzhi say? Now looking at the affectionate look on the young couple's face, Gu Lanzhi just feels sad.

"Ahem... Let's eat!" Gu Lanzhi coughed twice tactically and picked up the chopsticks.

The meal was quite enjoyable, but just as Gu Lanzhi put down his chopsticks, he was startled by the sound of fireworks in his live broadcast room.

Normally, there is no sound effect when the audience sends gifts in the live broadcast room. The sudden sound of fireworks really scared Gu Lanzhi and made him tremble all over.

He reflexively became alert, and his eyes changed in an instant. The aura of a doomsday boss emanated from his body, and he looked around with cold eyes.

After realizing that it was the fireworks in the live broadcast room, he put away the murderous aura in his body.

But Gu Lan's instantaneous change was clearly felt by everyone at the table, including the children.

Gu Jingcheng looked at Gu Lanzhi nervously, "Brother, what's wrong?"

Gu Lanzhi smiled awkwardly, raised his hand and rubbed Gu Jingcheng's head, "It's okay, it's okay, brother was in a trance for a moment, it's okay."

After listening to Gu Lanzhi's explanation, the eldest lady's eyes were filled with heartache.

She was also the general's wife, so how could she not feel the murderous aura that Gu Lanzhi had just exuded! When her husband came back from the war, he would occasionally have the same reaction as Gu Lanzhi.

The ancients didn’t know what this reaction was, but there is a modern word for it, called post-traumatic stress disorder.

Many soldiers who have retired from real battlefields will have this psychological barrier.

"Brother, you are home, we are at home, there is no war anymore!" The eldest lady touched Gu Lanzhi's face with heartache.

In the past, when her husband had such a reaction, the eldest lady would also comfort her husband in a soft voice, but now that person has changed to Gu Lanzhi.

Gu Lanzhi knew that the Madam had misunderstood, but he did not explain much. He could not explain it clearly. He could not tell the Madam that he was frightened by the sound effects of the fireworks, so he simply said nothing.

But the suffocating aura that Gu Lanzhi exuded just now made Yin Heng have a new understanding of Gu Lanzhi.

He knew that the general was powerful. If he was not powerful, he would not be able to turn the tide and lead the Dongshun soldiers to regain the lost territory.

But feeling that murderous aura at such a close distance, Yin Heng really looked at Gu Lanzhi with a new respect in his heart.

Even though he was his wife's father and the eldest lady's husband, Yin Heng had never felt such a majestic aura and such a strong murderous intent from his father-in-law.

Yin Heng could imagine what kind of killing god Gu Lanzhi was on the battlefield!

Yin Heng glanced at Gu Lanzhi obscurely, but saw that Gu Lanzhi was staring at something in the void in a daze.

Because Gu Lanzhi is now looking at his live broadcast system blankly!
