[Rebirth] Black lotus watered with sugar water
Chapter 24 Illness
Regarding this matter, Gu Ningyuan had thought it over carefully. He planned to put Shen Yue under his own name at the beginning. There would be no two names on the same household registration book. It would be more stable and worthwhile for each other to inherit each other's property. Rest assured about the relationship.But after thinking about it carefully, it was really wrong.
And it is really difficult to choose a household registration book that suits Shen Yue. He doesn't want to put Shen Yue on any family at will.
Speaking of it, it still has to involve the current chaos of the Gu family.After Gu Lu and Qin Shu passed away, Gu Ningyuan formed a single household with only one name clearly written on it. This household registration book is also a proof of inheritance rights. What Gu Lu left behind, at least on the surface, belonged to Gu Ningyuan .
Gu Sui couldn't figure it out for a moment, his eyes turned and fell on Gu Ningyuan.I saw Gu Ningyuan drinking a sip of tea while holding a teacup painted in pink and colored porcelain, his actions and demeanor were always well-bred and noble.It was already June, and the sun was scorching hot. Because he was sick, he was still wearing long sleeves. The rolled up cuffs exposed a wrist.
It's really reduced, but it's really impossible to see his age.
Gu Ningyuan put down the teacup, stretched his brows and eyes, and said unhurriedly: "There is a reason for this."
Gu Sui was invited to sit aside, intending to have a long talk.
"What do you think is the situation outside now?" Gu Ningyuan didn't mention Shen Yue, his eyes were dark, and he changed to an irrelevant topic, "Gu Shengquan? Gu Hong? Those people in Qisi Building, one or two, How did you do it?"
Gu Sui didn't expect that Gu Ningyuan confessed so casually in front of him, and even said his name directly.He has gotten close to Gu Ningyuan a lot, but he doesn't want to get involved in the disputes over the interests of the Gu family. He doesn't have the skills and energy.
Gu Ningyuan spoke first, interrupting what Gu Sui was about to say, "Don't be nervous."
Gu Sui smiled dryly, his Adam's apple moved up and down, and swallowed back the words, "Ning Yuan, you are really joking."
Gu Ningyuan poured him a cup of tea slowly, without smiling, but his face looked gentle, "The environment outside is really terrible, tell me, can I put Shen Yue under my name?"
The words were so clear that Gu Sui finally realized that all the attention of the Gu family was now on Gu Ningyuan. If there was a stranger's name suddenly added to that household registration book, he would have to do everything possible to inquire about it. Can't live a peaceful life.
Gu Sui was still thinking about it, but the child was raised by Gu Ningyuan, and his household registration was with him, so he couldn't say anything about it.
It is rare for Gu Ningyuan to smile at people other than Shen Yue, but now he smiled slightly, adding another bargaining chip.He has never been good at touching people with affection, but he is very proficient in coercion and lure.
"I know that your company is fighting for a new patent, right? I happen to know that person, so I can introduce you. What do you think?"
This move is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow to Gu Sui.
It was the most important project of the company this year, and it was halfway through. It was hard to find the technology, but the other party insisted on not selling it.
"Okay." Gu Sui gritted his teeth, Gu Wushuang and Shen Yue will only become more and more familiar in the future, and the relationship between himself and Gu Ningyuan will become closer and closer. Sooner or later, we will be on the same boat, so it's better now.
Gu Ningyuan's smile finally reached his eyes, and he stretched out his hand, "It's a happy cooperation."
Before Gu Sui could hold his hand, two children came from a distance, Shen Yue and Gu Wushuang.
Shen Yue walked ahead, and Gu Wushuang followed behind Shen Yue's shadow like a little tail, still shouting: "Uncle, wait for me!"
Shen Yue's foot injury healed very quickly, in just a few days, after the swelling subsided, there was no problem with walking.
I saw Shen Yue walking to Gu Ningyuan's reclining chair, before he could take care of Gu Sui, he turned out his watch, pointed to the time on it, and said with a serious face: "It's time, the doctor said you were sick. Don't blow the wind outside."
Gu Ningyuan's face remained unchanged, but he sighed slightly in his heart, turned his hands in the other direction, squeezed Shen Yue's soft, small hands, got up from the chair, and waved casually to Gu Sui behind him, "I It's time for the wind release to end, see you next time."
When Shen Yue saw Gu Sui, he said hello first, then pursed his lips and showed a polite smile, "I..."
He paused at this point, he had never intimately called "Brother" in front of outsiders.She seemed a little shy, but she was brave and wanted to show off, telling the world the rest of her words.
"My brother is not in good health now, and I will talk to you about things when he gets better."
Gu Sui was stunned, Shen Yue had already led Gu Ningyuan away.
Gu Ningyuan was one step behind Shen Yue, Shen Yue carefully chose, there was no obstacle in the way ahead, Gu Ningyuan seemed to be stepping on his little shadow.Such a leader whose size is reversed is quite rare.
Gu Wushuang pursed her lips and complained, "Uncle doesn't talk to me, and doesn't play with me anymore."
Gu Sui glanced at the silly boy and thought to himself, from now on, this uncle will really become his "biological" uncle.
But this cannot be said.
"I only play all day long, look at your uncle, have you finished your homework?"
Gu Wushuang shook his head aggrievedly, and reluctantly followed Gu Sui back home.
----------------
Shen Yue regarded Gu Ningyuan as a fragile glass doll.
Shen Yue took Gu Ningyuan into the bedroom upstairs, and was startled by the air-conditioning as soon as he entered the door. He wondered if the cleaning maid turned it on because he thought it was too hot, and forgot to turn it off.He immediately pushed Gu Ningyuan out, and ran into the house by himself, quickly turned off the air conditioner, opened the windows, and let out the cold air.
After a while, Shen Yue pulled Gu Ningyuan in again. The sheets on the bed had been unfolded, and Gu Ningyuan was just about to be stuffed in.
Gu Ningyuan, as a sick patient with the supreme illusion, thinking that he has been cured, actually has constant coughing and low-grade fever, and he is not very safe in bed, with a thin blanket covering his waist and abdomen.
Shen Yue muttered, bent down, and pulled the quilt to Gu Ningyuan's chest properly.
In Shen Yue's eyes, Gu Ningyuan has become a fragile and precious glass doll, which needs to be handled carefully, afraid of breaking when touched, and afraid of collapsing when cold, every day from morning to night, his eyes are fixed on him body.
Gu Ningyuan's illness came on quickly and fiercely. It was just a common cold and cold, but he didn't expect that the high fever would not subside, and then he would develop pneumonia later on. It was really unexpected.
The conditions in the hospital are very good, but Gu Ningyuan is not a good patient. He has a bad temper when he gets sick, and he is reluctant to take medicine, and he doesn't even take the disease seriously.
In the whole family, Gu Ningyuan himself is the biggest, no one can control him.Mama Liu was very distressed, and in the end she had no choice but to let Shen Yue join the battle to see if there would be any effect.
Shen Yue's eyes were swollen from crying in the emergency room, and it didn't go away for a few days. When he suddenly received such a heavy task, he felt as if he was facing an enemy in an instant, so he was cautious.With red eyes like a little rabbit, he stood tremblingly on the hospital bed, carefully sorted out each medicine by category, and delivered the water himself.
This made Gu Ningyuan swallow his temper willingly.
From then on, until now, she has been strictly controlled by Shen Yue.
Gu Ningyuan propped his forehead with one hand, and sighed as he idly watched the little Shen Yue rushing about.
"Ah?" Shen Yue turned around to pick up the hot water, only heard the voice, thought it was talking, and answered vaguely.Turning around and handing the water to Gu Ningyuan, he didn't speak, but stared at him with dark eyes.
Gu Ningyuan had no choice but to surrender, and drank more than half a cup of hot water, which was so steaming that he seemed to be in a cage of fire.
Shen Yue sat quietly by the bed. The stool was originally made for Gu Ningyuan to take care of Shen Yue, and it was a bit high.Shen Yue couldn't even touch the ground with his feet, hanging in mid-air, staggering, beads of sweat slid down the tip of his nose, turning into small circles on the light-colored cotton clothes.
He is busy now, so he should be hotter than Gu Ningyuan.
Gu Ningyuan sat up, wiped Shen Yue's face with a wet towel, and asked him with a frown, "It's so hot? Go to the next room and turn on the air conditioner."
Not only the hair, but Shen Yuelian's long eyelashes seemed to be stained with beads of sweat, and his face was glistening with water, making him look extremely weak.
Shen Yue grabbed Gu Ningyuan's hand and shook his head gently.
He will take good care of Gu Ningyuan properly and carefully, just like Gu Ningyuan took care of him in the past, how could he avoid the heat and leave by himself because of such a small matter?
Gu Ningyuan was taken aback, but he held Shen Yue's sweaty hand instead, clasped his fingers, both hands were covered with sweat, and said: "I'm also very hot, at least, I can move an electric fan over, the wind always blows me away. Can blow."
A few nights ago, Gu Ningyuan had a severe high fever, and woke up late the next day. Shen Yue was ignorant, and it was not until a long time later that he realized that something was wrong. The high fever turned into pneumonia.Most of the cold air that cannot be blown by the air conditioner is replaced by natural wind, and the electric fan can barely be included to count as a part.
Shen Yue didn't believe this sentence, he climbed onto the bed and leaned over, and pressed his cold forehead against Gu Ningyuan's. The distance between the two was too close, and the eyelashes were all intertwined, as if they were about to melt together.
Gu Ningyuan was looking at him tenderly.
Probably did feel the presence of sweat, Shen Yue finally agreed.He climbed down from the bed, almost lost his footing and fell, "I'm going to get the fan."
After finishing speaking, he hurried out of the room.
Shen Yue came back quickly, and a person behind him moved the fan to a suitable place and switched it on.Standing in front of the fan, Shen Yue pressed the buttons one by one and blew on himself first, picking out the size he thought was suitable.
Gu Ningyuan walked behind Shen Yue, stretched out his long arms, and fished him out of the air vent.
"That's not your fault," Gu Ningyuan was suddenly blown by a strong wind, and couldn't help coughing, "I'm sick because of myself, you don't have to torment yourself like this."
Shen Yue turned her back to Gu Ningyuan, she seemed to have forgotten to struggle after hearing this, as if she was easily persuaded.
But not.
Shen Yue said, "Brother, is that how you miss me?"
Gu Ningyuan was startled, his arm lost strength, Shen Yue rushed out, and turned off the fan first.
The fan gradually stopped, and the fan blades were forced to rotate for the last time. The "humming" sound disappeared completely, and everything returned to silence.
Shen Yue didn't turn around, only heard him calmly questioning: "My eyes were injured before, how did Mr. Gu treat me? Mr. Gu fed me, dressed me, and told me stories. I was bored, so I took me out to get some fresh air. But at that time, what did I have to do with Mr. Gu?"
"And now," Shen Yue finally showed a barely perceptible trill, "My brother is sick, and I even adjust the fan, can it be because of an apology after making a mistake?
This calmness probably came from extreme restraint, maybe it was gritted teeth, or clenched hands, in short, it sounded like a fake.
Gu Ningyuan was startled, he couldn't see Shen Yue's face, but felt that under the thin layer of clothes, he couldn't cover his trembling back.
He ruined the child's affection for him, and broke Shen Yue's heart.
Gu Ningyuan felt that he should apologize sincerely, and then come to coax him.
"I was wrong, I'm sorry." The gentle voice said softly in Shen Yue's ear.
Shen Yue didn't turn around immediately, but raised her voice slightly, "Do you really know you're wrong?"
Gu Ningyuan had never been asked such a rhetorical question before, and he had to hold back his absurdity. He raised his eyebrows and replied, "I know I was wrong, can you forgive me?"
"Since you admitted your mistake," Shen Yue turned half of his face, and handed over the little book ordered by the doctor, "then you must be obedient and follow this in everything from now on."
Gu Ningyuan's smile froze, and in the end he cede the land and pay compensation. He gave up ten points and agreed.
Only then did Shen Yue turn his head around. It was a big smiling face, the corners of his lips were raised high, and his eyes were smiling into an arc, like a little fox who only did something bad and got it right.
"I won't be angry with my brother!"
Gu Ningyuan also understood, he smiled, and pinched the tip of Shen Yue's nose, "Huh? Is this necessary? Little rascal."
Master Shen Yue seemed to sigh, "It's not all your fault for being disobedient."
Gu Ningyuan: "..."
At night, it was almost eight o'clock, Shen Yue and Gu Ningyuan were already lying on the bed.
There was only one wall lamp lit in the room, and Gu Ningyuan was sitting under the lamp, holding a report in his hand, and was checking it carefully.
Shen Yue looked at his watch, and grabbed Gu Ningyuan's wrist. His small hands were also small, and he couldn't catch a whole one, so it seemed a bit strenuous.
But before Shen Yue could speak, Gu Ningyuan closed the report and put it on the bedside table.
He touched Shen Yue's head with a gentle tone, "I will never fail to do what I promised you. Do you want to go to bed before eight o'clock?"
Shen Yue nodded blankly.
Gu Ningyuan turned off the lights, and a sentence came from the darkness at the same time.
"Good night."
Then both of them laughed.
Gu Ningyuan turned sideways, facing outside the bed.In fact, a cold is easily contagious, so Shen Yue should not be allowed to sleep with him.Shen Yue said that he was persuaded by Liu Ma's earnest words, and he could move a stool to guard the bedside when he turned his head, planning to stay up all night.Gu Ningyuan has no choice. In Shen Yue's character, the most indispensable thing is stubbornness. What can be done?
The original planned posture should be that both sides should face their backs, and Gu Ningyuan indeed turned his back on it, but Shen Yue relied on no one to see him, but he turned his back to Gu Ningyuan.Occasionally, two uncontrollable coughs could be heard intermittently in the dark night.Shen Yue was able to stick it immediately and pat him on the back gently.
After a while, Gu Ningyuan said helplessly: "I really want to throw you out, but you are disobedient."
Shen Yue shrank for a moment, finally behaved a little better, and stepped back to the outside, keeping a distance, trying to create an illusion.
Gu Ningyuan stretched out his hand, passed through the two quilts, groped to find Shen Yue's little hand, and wrapped it up effortlessly.
"Go to sleep. You can rest assured this way."
After a long time, Shen Yue opened his eyes in the dark. He leaned forward slightly, and then pulled back the corners of the quilt. He didn't dare to move too much, for fear of disturbing Gu Ningyuan.
Gu Ningyuan's breathing was slow and long, and he should have fallen into a deep sweet dream.
Shen Yue finally felt relieved, he was too sleepy for a long time since he was young, but because he couldn't let go, he has been holding on until now.
He tilted on the pillow and soon fell into a deep sleep.
……
Children's Day is over, and the Dragon Boat Festival will come soon.
Early in the morning, Mama Liu boiled the prepared wormwood into water.Not only that, the vases at home, in front of the door, in every corner, are filled with wormwood everywhere.
Shen Yue had never seen it before, but it was very novel. She looked around and tilted her head to listen to Mama Liu's explanation.
Mama Liu is very busy, but she is still happy, probably because the elderly have special thoughts about these festivals.
"This wormwood is used to drive away evil spirits and avoid filth. Hang it in front of the door during the Dragon Boat Festival, and then take a bath in the wormwood water. You will be safe for a year, with good luck, and you will never get sick again."
Shen Yue nodded thoughtfully.
Liu Ma said again: "But Mr. has never washed the wormwood water since he was a child. He has made up his mind since he was a child. He thinks the wormwood water is not clean, so he doesn't want to."
Shen Yue blinked, volunteered, and planned to go up to persuade Gu Ningyuan.
At this time, Gu Ningyuan and Chen Bo were in the study above.
Usually at this time, most of the Gu family would have already come. Celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival is also to exchange feelings.This rule was set by Qin Shu. She is a very gentle and kind person. She always thinks that the Gu family is so big and has so many relatives. If they don't find opportunities to be together and lose their feelings, how can they be counted as a family?So he invited the rest of the Gu family to come during festivals like the Dragon Boat Festival.This habit has been gradually passed down for nearly 20 years, but this year when Gu Lu and Qin Shu went, no one came.
One morning, Uncle Chen answered a lot of phone calls, all of which were from the Gu family. They were all evading the fact that they had something to do today and couldn't go to Gu's house to gather again. Maybe he would add that Gu Ningyuan should take good care of his health and not bother him to recuperate. It's gone, so as not to be lingering on the sick bed like Qin Shu.
Uncle Chen felt that he had cultivated enough, so he almost dropped the phone out of breath.
These calls were still a small number, and there were more people left, without even saying a word, they disappeared without a trace.
Gu Ningyuan was very calm. He had experienced it in his previous life. Even though he didn't have this illness, he tried his best to fight for it, but a few people came scattered and wasted so many banquets.
Gu Shengquan said that he was the oldest in the Gu family, and that such a banquet should be held by himself, so he took the opportunity to hold another one outside. The Gu family felt that they had seen the situation clearly, and most of them thought that Gu Ning could not compete with Gu Shengquan. Stick it up.Even if they don't want to curry favor with each other, they have no intention of meddling between the two, and they won't go to either side.
And in this life, Gu Ningyuan didn't even fight, so naturally he couldn't win over even one person.
The only thing that Gu Ningyuan regrets is that Qin Shu wasted his mind on those Gu family members. She will never know when people die like lights out.
Uncle Chen was still indignant, "They are all wolf-hearted things!"
Gu Ningyuan's face remained unchanged, his eyes were dark, he rarely smiled, "It doesn't matter, I gave fourth uncle a gift, he must like it."
After saying this, Gu Ningyuan walked out of the study, went downstairs and walked on the stairs, and Shen Yue came to meet him.
Gu Ningyuan stopped and took his hand.
The two walked down slowly and nestled on the sofa. Gu Ningyuan didn't talk about work. He picked and picked, and found a book on customs, which was quite in line with the current atmosphere of the Dragon Boat Festival.
Shen Yue thought it was a story book, and he didn't like listening to stories, maybe it was because Gu Ningyuan didn't like stories at night, so it wasn't interesting to tell them, dry and boring.On the contrary, I really like Gu Ningyuan taking him to study and study. Gu Ningyuan's logic is clear and his narration is reasonable. For Shen Yue, that is much more interesting.
But Shen Yue didn't ask what to read.As long as Gu Ningyuan watched it with him, everything would make him happy.
Gu Ningyuan's illness is almost recovered, and the contact is much more casual and intimate.He pulled Shen Yue into his arms, and pressed his chin against the top of Shen Yue's head. It was soft and itchy, but Gu Ningyuan didn't care, and opened the book smoothly.
"Today is a holiday, how can you do your homework and study during the holiday? Be good, and I will tell you some other stories."
Gu Ningyuan unexpectedly told these customs and stories that were handed down very well, vividly and interestingly, and even Shen Yue was fascinated. He grabbed Gu Ningyuan's sleeve and couldn't wait to turn to the next page.
In fact, these are not Gu Ningyuan's words, but Qin Shu used them as bedtime stories and told the young Gu Ningyuan one by one.Gu Ningyuan thought he had forgotten all about it, but he still remembered it in his mind. It was a very precious memory. Now he recalled it bit by bit, and then told Shen Yue.
Mama Liu was wrapping zongzi, she looked at the two with a smile in her eyes, and said in her heart, God bless, Qin Shu has finally had a blessing after so many years of good deeds.The old man and his wife passed away soon, and the young master found a family that could rely on each other again.
This is really good.
--------------
Unlike Gu's house, which is deserted and deserted, Gu Shengquan's house is very lively now.
The door of the villa was closed tightly, and the headlights hanging from the roof were as bright as daylight, shining brightly.
There are Gu family members everywhere.Men wear suits and ties, women wear jewelry and furs. Everyone is holding champagne, toasting and chatting happily.
It's just that it's not like a family banquet to promote feelings, everyone has a decent smile on their faces, it's more like a business dinner.
Gu Shengquan has been praised recently, and now he is even more overjoyed. He drank a lot of wine, his eyes were red, and his footsteps were a little unsteady. Yue Baoqin was by his side, taking the place of two people alone. The son stopped drinking, and acted as a daughter-in-law to persuade Gu Shengquan.
Someone praised and said: "You really found a good wife, you are really talented and virtuous."
Gu Shengquan didn't think much of her, and just smiled when he heard the words, "Is she? Just do her duty."
Yue Baoqin didn't argue, just lowered her eyebrows and blocked this man's glass of wine for Gu Shengquan.
As for Gu Hong, he was still in the crowd of women, and people with the same surname of the Gu family couldn't move, but it was not against the law to take a look and appreciate it.
Yue Baoqin has long since stopped counting on him, her own ability is better than anything else.Holding the wine glass in her hand, she smiled with the guests, skillfully used her wrists in communication, she drank wine glass after glass, revealing her white neck, and a faint blush on her pretty face, making others feel unbearable .
After drinking a lot, suddenly a servant came over, respectfully holding a letter with a few words written on it.
"Gu Shengquan greets you personally."
That character is a good character, with one stroke and one stroke, it is very strong, and it dazzled Yue Baoqin's eyes for a while.
Yue Baoqin took it calmly, apologized, asked the servant to take his place, walked to a dark corner, opened the envelope with a movement of long fingernails, and took out the letter paper stuck inside.
This piece of paper is very long, carefully folded, but thin, as if there is light shining through it.
Yue Baoqin's eyelids twitched inexplicably, his fingertips slid across the first line of words, and his eyes followed.
After reading less than ten lines, Yue Baoqin's face turned pale, she clenched her teeth, trying to hold herself back, but she could hardly bear the weight of the paper.
What she was most worried about happened, no, it was worse and more ruthless than she imagined!
A woman wearing a wide skirt passed by, the swaying skirt moved slightly, and a slight wind was blown up, and the thin piece of paper slipped from Yue Baoqin's hand and slowly floated not far away.
Yue Baoqin rushed over, not caring about the appearance of etiquette, with one hand propped on the ground, and the other hand tightly grasping the paper in the palm of his hand.She froze for a while, then looked around again, but didn't notice any movement here, the focus was on that piece of paper.
A man thought he accidentally fell down, so he stretched out his hand to help her up. Yue Baoqin's complexion was ghostly, even the brightest makeup couldn't cover it.She forced a smile and hurried to Gu Shengquan's side.
Yue Baoqin knew her father-in-law, husband, and even his mistress. She carefully studied everyone in the family, and was cautious in every step, so she climbed from a woman who couldn't even enter the house to her current position.
At first it was for love, but later, when the love was gone, it was just to keep money in hand.
Just like now, no matter how frightened she is, she will never tell the truth to Gu Shengquan's ears on this occasion, in public.Instead, he found another reason, tricked Gu Shengquan upstairs, closed the door, and handed out the letter.
"Eunuch, there is one important thing that needs to be decided by you."
Gu Shengquan was still drinking, and reprimanded Yue Baoqin, "What's the matter! I'm absent today, so what's the point of the following." Then he stretched out his thin hand and pulled the letter paper over.
Yue Baoqin thought sarcastically in his heart, if everyone here knew about this matter, they would say that you are the only one missing, and it is estimated that they would not be able to keep even one person.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Gu Shengquan sobered up from the alcohol, he was completely sober, and he was shocked.
He is old, and he could be regarded as not showing his emotions and anger at first, but there have been too many happy events recently, and his ability to endure for so many years has declined, and he can't suppress his anger at all at this time.
"Beast! Beast!"
I don't know who was scolding these two sounds, Yue Baoqin only heard a loud noise, Gu Shengquan kicked on the mahogany table, did not kick the table, backed a few steps by himself, terribly angry, and threw the things on the table All fell.
It's just that the piece of paper was still tightly held in the palm of his hand, not daring to let go of it.
This piece of paper was sent by Gu Ningyuan, and the words on the envelope were written by him himself.
It only details that Gu Hong has been addicted to gambling in recent years, lost all his money, and refused to sell his car and house to lose face, and secretly used the company's shares to pay, and the company's shares went all over the place. The gang who asked the casino to take advantage of it, sent out more and more money, but did not return any shares.
As for Gu Ningyuan, he said that he was a good junior. He spent a lot of money to buy back the shares, and he printed a form of the current company shareholders. There were two missing people, one Gu Hong and one Gu Shengquan.
Gu Sheng was so out of breath that he almost couldn't catch his breath.
The huge family business, the supreme power, and the bright future all came to naught in an instant.
Yue Baoqin waited for Gu Shengquan to calm down a little bit before daring to go over. She was completely calm at this time. She didn't have a share in the shares of the Gu family. She should be anxious, but it really didn't matter.
She pretended to be worried, and persuaded hesitantly, "Eunuch, should we call Gu Ningyuan first, check his tone first, and listen to what he has to say?"
Saying so, in fact, is now posting a shameless pleading, saying that relatives love each other.
Gu Shengquan trampled Gu Ningyuan under his feet, thinking that the Gu family was all his own, and it would be quite embarrassing for him to post it at this time.
Yue Baoqin sighed, and then persuaded, "Grandpa, if you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood. Tell the juniors, at most, it will make them respect you, so what does it matter?"
A servant outside came up to knock on the door, saying that some guests wanted to talk to the master, Gu Shengquan scolded, and then fell silent in an instant.
Gu Shengquan finally made up his mind and called Gu Zhai.
Uncle Chen came down from downstairs, "Sir, it's the fourth grandpa's call."
Gu Ningyuan's eyes paused, and he didn't care too much. He waved his hands casually, finished the story with Shen Yue, and handed Shen Yue a picture album before answering the phone leisurely.
This long wait was going to wipe away Gu Shengquan's anger.He thought about Gu Ningyuan's actions since Gu Lv's death until now, and felt more and more terrifying.
Is this a teenager?
He is not stupid, otherwise he would not be able to endure until now, but because of his age, he underestimated Gu Ningyuan, and his son was too stupid, dragging him into the water, and he was defeated.
"Is it fourth uncle?" Gu Ningyuan walked into the yard and asked casually.
"It's me, you are really mine, what a great nephew." Gu Shengquan still couldn't help revealing the deep hatred in these words.
Who says it's not? First hand over the rights to yourself, and then take it back easily, who can't hate it.
Gu Ningyuan sat in the small pavilion, and his tone was still respectful, "What's the matter? Does the Dragon Boat Festival gift I gave you make you happy?"
"Happy, very happy."
Gu Ningyuan tapped the table lightly with his knuckles, "That's good."
"What exactly do you want? Give me that thing first, instead of spreading it outside now." Gu Shengquan finally couldn't hold back his anger, and suddenly said.
"That's naturally filial piety. As for me?" Gu Ningyuan's voice gradually cooled down.
This time it's the point.
"I have something to entrust to you." Gu Ningyuan paused, and his tone calmed down again, "The company is too big now, and I am young and have no skills. I am afraid that I will not be able to convince the public. In charge of the company, you are highly respected, I am very satisfied."
There was silence on the phone.
Suddenly there was a roar.
"Gu Ningyuan! What are you! I want to take care of the Gu family for you! It's a trick!" Gu Shengquan cursed out of breath.
Gu Ningyuan turned a deaf ear, a fallen leaf floated past his eyes without raising his eyes.
"So what?" Gu Ningyuan finally returned to his usual coldness, weighing the pros and cons as if considering for him, "Gu Shengquan, do you lose face if you lose your shares, or do you still have shares even if you lose your shares?" Face, how about getting a huge salary?"
After only saying the last word, Gu Ningyuan hung up the phone without hesitation.
Suffering should be left to the other party.
Seeing that he hung up the phone, Yue Baoqin's eyelids twitched, "Elder-in-law, how are you doing?"
Gu Shengquan was still weighing, and after a long time, he sighed, "Is he..."
He probably felt that this daughter-in-law was quite capable, and she was still so calm after encountering such a big incident at the banquet, so she told the incident from beginning to end.
Yue Baoqin opened her eyes wide in shock.
After a long while, Gu Shengquan finally pulled up his strength, "Go, call me that evil person, it's him! He's such a thing!"
Yue Baoqin hurriedly stopped him, "Eunuch, you can't tell Brother Hong. He is the most straight-minded person, and if he finds out, he will be afraid, and he won't be able to hide it..."
What kind of personality is Gu Hong?
"This, this is true." Gu Shengquan held Yue Baoqin's hand, "It's all Gu Hong, he is lucky to marry such a good wife like you. Now that I am old, you just control him and tell him not to marry me again." It's so muddy."
"What's good or bad, it's all for our family."
Yue Baoqin smiled, and her bright red lips curled into a strange arc.
Gu Ningyuan hung up the phone and turned his head, only to see Shen Yue sticking to the glass door, his long eyelashes were like small brushes, blinking slowly, and seemed to be brushing on Gu Ningyuan's heart, making him feel itchy.
Pushing open the door with both hands, bending over to hug Shen Yue, Gu Ningyuan rubbed Shen Yue's soft and fair little face intimately.
Now Shen Yue won't blush over such a trivial matter.
"It's noon, let's eat zongzi. Well, do you like it?"
"...I haven't eaten it, I don't know? What kind of taste is it?"
"Hmm... There are many kinds, including sweet ones, red date ones, red bean ones, and salty ones."
"I want to eat something salty. After eating the zongzi, shall we wash the wormwood water? I haven't washed it either, brother, can you accompany me?"
"..."
"elder brother?"
"……it is good."
And it is really difficult to choose a household registration book that suits Shen Yue. He doesn't want to put Shen Yue on any family at will.
Speaking of it, it still has to involve the current chaos of the Gu family.After Gu Lu and Qin Shu passed away, Gu Ningyuan formed a single household with only one name clearly written on it. This household registration book is also a proof of inheritance rights. What Gu Lu left behind, at least on the surface, belonged to Gu Ningyuan .
Gu Sui couldn't figure it out for a moment, his eyes turned and fell on Gu Ningyuan.I saw Gu Ningyuan drinking a sip of tea while holding a teacup painted in pink and colored porcelain, his actions and demeanor were always well-bred and noble.It was already June, and the sun was scorching hot. Because he was sick, he was still wearing long sleeves. The rolled up cuffs exposed a wrist.
It's really reduced, but it's really impossible to see his age.
Gu Ningyuan put down the teacup, stretched his brows and eyes, and said unhurriedly: "There is a reason for this."
Gu Sui was invited to sit aside, intending to have a long talk.
"What do you think is the situation outside now?" Gu Ningyuan didn't mention Shen Yue, his eyes were dark, and he changed to an irrelevant topic, "Gu Shengquan? Gu Hong? Those people in Qisi Building, one or two, How did you do it?"
Gu Sui didn't expect that Gu Ningyuan confessed so casually in front of him, and even said his name directly.He has gotten close to Gu Ningyuan a lot, but he doesn't want to get involved in the disputes over the interests of the Gu family. He doesn't have the skills and energy.
Gu Ningyuan spoke first, interrupting what Gu Sui was about to say, "Don't be nervous."
Gu Sui smiled dryly, his Adam's apple moved up and down, and swallowed back the words, "Ning Yuan, you are really joking."
Gu Ningyuan poured him a cup of tea slowly, without smiling, but his face looked gentle, "The environment outside is really terrible, tell me, can I put Shen Yue under my name?"
The words were so clear that Gu Sui finally realized that all the attention of the Gu family was now on Gu Ningyuan. If there was a stranger's name suddenly added to that household registration book, he would have to do everything possible to inquire about it. Can't live a peaceful life.
Gu Sui was still thinking about it, but the child was raised by Gu Ningyuan, and his household registration was with him, so he couldn't say anything about it.
It is rare for Gu Ningyuan to smile at people other than Shen Yue, but now he smiled slightly, adding another bargaining chip.He has never been good at touching people with affection, but he is very proficient in coercion and lure.
"I know that your company is fighting for a new patent, right? I happen to know that person, so I can introduce you. What do you think?"
This move is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow to Gu Sui.
It was the most important project of the company this year, and it was halfway through. It was hard to find the technology, but the other party insisted on not selling it.
"Okay." Gu Sui gritted his teeth, Gu Wushuang and Shen Yue will only become more and more familiar in the future, and the relationship between himself and Gu Ningyuan will become closer and closer. Sooner or later, we will be on the same boat, so it's better now.
Gu Ningyuan's smile finally reached his eyes, and he stretched out his hand, "It's a happy cooperation."
Before Gu Sui could hold his hand, two children came from a distance, Shen Yue and Gu Wushuang.
Shen Yue walked ahead, and Gu Wushuang followed behind Shen Yue's shadow like a little tail, still shouting: "Uncle, wait for me!"
Shen Yue's foot injury healed very quickly, in just a few days, after the swelling subsided, there was no problem with walking.
I saw Shen Yue walking to Gu Ningyuan's reclining chair, before he could take care of Gu Sui, he turned out his watch, pointed to the time on it, and said with a serious face: "It's time, the doctor said you were sick. Don't blow the wind outside."
Gu Ningyuan's face remained unchanged, but he sighed slightly in his heart, turned his hands in the other direction, squeezed Shen Yue's soft, small hands, got up from the chair, and waved casually to Gu Sui behind him, "I It's time for the wind release to end, see you next time."
When Shen Yue saw Gu Sui, he said hello first, then pursed his lips and showed a polite smile, "I..."
He paused at this point, he had never intimately called "Brother" in front of outsiders.She seemed a little shy, but she was brave and wanted to show off, telling the world the rest of her words.
"My brother is not in good health now, and I will talk to you about things when he gets better."
Gu Sui was stunned, Shen Yue had already led Gu Ningyuan away.
Gu Ningyuan was one step behind Shen Yue, Shen Yue carefully chose, there was no obstacle in the way ahead, Gu Ningyuan seemed to be stepping on his little shadow.Such a leader whose size is reversed is quite rare.
Gu Wushuang pursed her lips and complained, "Uncle doesn't talk to me, and doesn't play with me anymore."
Gu Sui glanced at the silly boy and thought to himself, from now on, this uncle will really become his "biological" uncle.
But this cannot be said.
"I only play all day long, look at your uncle, have you finished your homework?"
Gu Wushuang shook his head aggrievedly, and reluctantly followed Gu Sui back home.
----------------
Shen Yue regarded Gu Ningyuan as a fragile glass doll.
Shen Yue took Gu Ningyuan into the bedroom upstairs, and was startled by the air-conditioning as soon as he entered the door. He wondered if the cleaning maid turned it on because he thought it was too hot, and forgot to turn it off.He immediately pushed Gu Ningyuan out, and ran into the house by himself, quickly turned off the air conditioner, opened the windows, and let out the cold air.
After a while, Shen Yue pulled Gu Ningyuan in again. The sheets on the bed had been unfolded, and Gu Ningyuan was just about to be stuffed in.
Gu Ningyuan, as a sick patient with the supreme illusion, thinking that he has been cured, actually has constant coughing and low-grade fever, and he is not very safe in bed, with a thin blanket covering his waist and abdomen.
Shen Yue muttered, bent down, and pulled the quilt to Gu Ningyuan's chest properly.
In Shen Yue's eyes, Gu Ningyuan has become a fragile and precious glass doll, which needs to be handled carefully, afraid of breaking when touched, and afraid of collapsing when cold, every day from morning to night, his eyes are fixed on him body.
Gu Ningyuan's illness came on quickly and fiercely. It was just a common cold and cold, but he didn't expect that the high fever would not subside, and then he would develop pneumonia later on. It was really unexpected.
The conditions in the hospital are very good, but Gu Ningyuan is not a good patient. He has a bad temper when he gets sick, and he is reluctant to take medicine, and he doesn't even take the disease seriously.
In the whole family, Gu Ningyuan himself is the biggest, no one can control him.Mama Liu was very distressed, and in the end she had no choice but to let Shen Yue join the battle to see if there would be any effect.
Shen Yue's eyes were swollen from crying in the emergency room, and it didn't go away for a few days. When he suddenly received such a heavy task, he felt as if he was facing an enemy in an instant, so he was cautious.With red eyes like a little rabbit, he stood tremblingly on the hospital bed, carefully sorted out each medicine by category, and delivered the water himself.
This made Gu Ningyuan swallow his temper willingly.
From then on, until now, she has been strictly controlled by Shen Yue.
Gu Ningyuan propped his forehead with one hand, and sighed as he idly watched the little Shen Yue rushing about.
"Ah?" Shen Yue turned around to pick up the hot water, only heard the voice, thought it was talking, and answered vaguely.Turning around and handing the water to Gu Ningyuan, he didn't speak, but stared at him with dark eyes.
Gu Ningyuan had no choice but to surrender, and drank more than half a cup of hot water, which was so steaming that he seemed to be in a cage of fire.
Shen Yue sat quietly by the bed. The stool was originally made for Gu Ningyuan to take care of Shen Yue, and it was a bit high.Shen Yue couldn't even touch the ground with his feet, hanging in mid-air, staggering, beads of sweat slid down the tip of his nose, turning into small circles on the light-colored cotton clothes.
He is busy now, so he should be hotter than Gu Ningyuan.
Gu Ningyuan sat up, wiped Shen Yue's face with a wet towel, and asked him with a frown, "It's so hot? Go to the next room and turn on the air conditioner."
Not only the hair, but Shen Yuelian's long eyelashes seemed to be stained with beads of sweat, and his face was glistening with water, making him look extremely weak.
Shen Yue grabbed Gu Ningyuan's hand and shook his head gently.
He will take good care of Gu Ningyuan properly and carefully, just like Gu Ningyuan took care of him in the past, how could he avoid the heat and leave by himself because of such a small matter?
Gu Ningyuan was taken aback, but he held Shen Yue's sweaty hand instead, clasped his fingers, both hands were covered with sweat, and said: "I'm also very hot, at least, I can move an electric fan over, the wind always blows me away. Can blow."
A few nights ago, Gu Ningyuan had a severe high fever, and woke up late the next day. Shen Yue was ignorant, and it was not until a long time later that he realized that something was wrong. The high fever turned into pneumonia.Most of the cold air that cannot be blown by the air conditioner is replaced by natural wind, and the electric fan can barely be included to count as a part.
Shen Yue didn't believe this sentence, he climbed onto the bed and leaned over, and pressed his cold forehead against Gu Ningyuan's. The distance between the two was too close, and the eyelashes were all intertwined, as if they were about to melt together.
Gu Ningyuan was looking at him tenderly.
Probably did feel the presence of sweat, Shen Yue finally agreed.He climbed down from the bed, almost lost his footing and fell, "I'm going to get the fan."
After finishing speaking, he hurried out of the room.
Shen Yue came back quickly, and a person behind him moved the fan to a suitable place and switched it on.Standing in front of the fan, Shen Yue pressed the buttons one by one and blew on himself first, picking out the size he thought was suitable.
Gu Ningyuan walked behind Shen Yue, stretched out his long arms, and fished him out of the air vent.
"That's not your fault," Gu Ningyuan was suddenly blown by a strong wind, and couldn't help coughing, "I'm sick because of myself, you don't have to torment yourself like this."
Shen Yue turned her back to Gu Ningyuan, she seemed to have forgotten to struggle after hearing this, as if she was easily persuaded.
But not.
Shen Yue said, "Brother, is that how you miss me?"
Gu Ningyuan was startled, his arm lost strength, Shen Yue rushed out, and turned off the fan first.
The fan gradually stopped, and the fan blades were forced to rotate for the last time. The "humming" sound disappeared completely, and everything returned to silence.
Shen Yue didn't turn around, only heard him calmly questioning: "My eyes were injured before, how did Mr. Gu treat me? Mr. Gu fed me, dressed me, and told me stories. I was bored, so I took me out to get some fresh air. But at that time, what did I have to do with Mr. Gu?"
"And now," Shen Yue finally showed a barely perceptible trill, "My brother is sick, and I even adjust the fan, can it be because of an apology after making a mistake?
This calmness probably came from extreme restraint, maybe it was gritted teeth, or clenched hands, in short, it sounded like a fake.
Gu Ningyuan was startled, he couldn't see Shen Yue's face, but felt that under the thin layer of clothes, he couldn't cover his trembling back.
He ruined the child's affection for him, and broke Shen Yue's heart.
Gu Ningyuan felt that he should apologize sincerely, and then come to coax him.
"I was wrong, I'm sorry." The gentle voice said softly in Shen Yue's ear.
Shen Yue didn't turn around immediately, but raised her voice slightly, "Do you really know you're wrong?"
Gu Ningyuan had never been asked such a rhetorical question before, and he had to hold back his absurdity. He raised his eyebrows and replied, "I know I was wrong, can you forgive me?"
"Since you admitted your mistake," Shen Yue turned half of his face, and handed over the little book ordered by the doctor, "then you must be obedient and follow this in everything from now on."
Gu Ningyuan's smile froze, and in the end he cede the land and pay compensation. He gave up ten points and agreed.
Only then did Shen Yue turn his head around. It was a big smiling face, the corners of his lips were raised high, and his eyes were smiling into an arc, like a little fox who only did something bad and got it right.
"I won't be angry with my brother!"
Gu Ningyuan also understood, he smiled, and pinched the tip of Shen Yue's nose, "Huh? Is this necessary? Little rascal."
Master Shen Yue seemed to sigh, "It's not all your fault for being disobedient."
Gu Ningyuan: "..."
At night, it was almost eight o'clock, Shen Yue and Gu Ningyuan were already lying on the bed.
There was only one wall lamp lit in the room, and Gu Ningyuan was sitting under the lamp, holding a report in his hand, and was checking it carefully.
Shen Yue looked at his watch, and grabbed Gu Ningyuan's wrist. His small hands were also small, and he couldn't catch a whole one, so it seemed a bit strenuous.
But before Shen Yue could speak, Gu Ningyuan closed the report and put it on the bedside table.
He touched Shen Yue's head with a gentle tone, "I will never fail to do what I promised you. Do you want to go to bed before eight o'clock?"
Shen Yue nodded blankly.
Gu Ningyuan turned off the lights, and a sentence came from the darkness at the same time.
"Good night."
Then both of them laughed.
Gu Ningyuan turned sideways, facing outside the bed.In fact, a cold is easily contagious, so Shen Yue should not be allowed to sleep with him.Shen Yue said that he was persuaded by Liu Ma's earnest words, and he could move a stool to guard the bedside when he turned his head, planning to stay up all night.Gu Ningyuan has no choice. In Shen Yue's character, the most indispensable thing is stubbornness. What can be done?
The original planned posture should be that both sides should face their backs, and Gu Ningyuan indeed turned his back on it, but Shen Yue relied on no one to see him, but he turned his back to Gu Ningyuan.Occasionally, two uncontrollable coughs could be heard intermittently in the dark night.Shen Yue was able to stick it immediately and pat him on the back gently.
After a while, Gu Ningyuan said helplessly: "I really want to throw you out, but you are disobedient."
Shen Yue shrank for a moment, finally behaved a little better, and stepped back to the outside, keeping a distance, trying to create an illusion.
Gu Ningyuan stretched out his hand, passed through the two quilts, groped to find Shen Yue's little hand, and wrapped it up effortlessly.
"Go to sleep. You can rest assured this way."
After a long time, Shen Yue opened his eyes in the dark. He leaned forward slightly, and then pulled back the corners of the quilt. He didn't dare to move too much, for fear of disturbing Gu Ningyuan.
Gu Ningyuan's breathing was slow and long, and he should have fallen into a deep sweet dream.
Shen Yue finally felt relieved, he was too sleepy for a long time since he was young, but because he couldn't let go, he has been holding on until now.
He tilted on the pillow and soon fell into a deep sleep.
……
Children's Day is over, and the Dragon Boat Festival will come soon.
Early in the morning, Mama Liu boiled the prepared wormwood into water.Not only that, the vases at home, in front of the door, in every corner, are filled with wormwood everywhere.
Shen Yue had never seen it before, but it was very novel. She looked around and tilted her head to listen to Mama Liu's explanation.
Mama Liu is very busy, but she is still happy, probably because the elderly have special thoughts about these festivals.
"This wormwood is used to drive away evil spirits and avoid filth. Hang it in front of the door during the Dragon Boat Festival, and then take a bath in the wormwood water. You will be safe for a year, with good luck, and you will never get sick again."
Shen Yue nodded thoughtfully.
Liu Ma said again: "But Mr. has never washed the wormwood water since he was a child. He has made up his mind since he was a child. He thinks the wormwood water is not clean, so he doesn't want to."
Shen Yue blinked, volunteered, and planned to go up to persuade Gu Ningyuan.
At this time, Gu Ningyuan and Chen Bo were in the study above.
Usually at this time, most of the Gu family would have already come. Celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival is also to exchange feelings.This rule was set by Qin Shu. She is a very gentle and kind person. She always thinks that the Gu family is so big and has so many relatives. If they don't find opportunities to be together and lose their feelings, how can they be counted as a family?So he invited the rest of the Gu family to come during festivals like the Dragon Boat Festival.This habit has been gradually passed down for nearly 20 years, but this year when Gu Lu and Qin Shu went, no one came.
One morning, Uncle Chen answered a lot of phone calls, all of which were from the Gu family. They were all evading the fact that they had something to do today and couldn't go to Gu's house to gather again. Maybe he would add that Gu Ningyuan should take good care of his health and not bother him to recuperate. It's gone, so as not to be lingering on the sick bed like Qin Shu.
Uncle Chen felt that he had cultivated enough, so he almost dropped the phone out of breath.
These calls were still a small number, and there were more people left, without even saying a word, they disappeared without a trace.
Gu Ningyuan was very calm. He had experienced it in his previous life. Even though he didn't have this illness, he tried his best to fight for it, but a few people came scattered and wasted so many banquets.
Gu Shengquan said that he was the oldest in the Gu family, and that such a banquet should be held by himself, so he took the opportunity to hold another one outside. The Gu family felt that they had seen the situation clearly, and most of them thought that Gu Ning could not compete with Gu Shengquan. Stick it up.Even if they don't want to curry favor with each other, they have no intention of meddling between the two, and they won't go to either side.
And in this life, Gu Ningyuan didn't even fight, so naturally he couldn't win over even one person.
The only thing that Gu Ningyuan regrets is that Qin Shu wasted his mind on those Gu family members. She will never know when people die like lights out.
Uncle Chen was still indignant, "They are all wolf-hearted things!"
Gu Ningyuan's face remained unchanged, his eyes were dark, he rarely smiled, "It doesn't matter, I gave fourth uncle a gift, he must like it."
After saying this, Gu Ningyuan walked out of the study, went downstairs and walked on the stairs, and Shen Yue came to meet him.
Gu Ningyuan stopped and took his hand.
The two walked down slowly and nestled on the sofa. Gu Ningyuan didn't talk about work. He picked and picked, and found a book on customs, which was quite in line with the current atmosphere of the Dragon Boat Festival.
Shen Yue thought it was a story book, and he didn't like listening to stories, maybe it was because Gu Ningyuan didn't like stories at night, so it wasn't interesting to tell them, dry and boring.On the contrary, I really like Gu Ningyuan taking him to study and study. Gu Ningyuan's logic is clear and his narration is reasonable. For Shen Yue, that is much more interesting.
But Shen Yue didn't ask what to read.As long as Gu Ningyuan watched it with him, everything would make him happy.
Gu Ningyuan's illness is almost recovered, and the contact is much more casual and intimate.He pulled Shen Yue into his arms, and pressed his chin against the top of Shen Yue's head. It was soft and itchy, but Gu Ningyuan didn't care, and opened the book smoothly.
"Today is a holiday, how can you do your homework and study during the holiday? Be good, and I will tell you some other stories."
Gu Ningyuan unexpectedly told these customs and stories that were handed down very well, vividly and interestingly, and even Shen Yue was fascinated. He grabbed Gu Ningyuan's sleeve and couldn't wait to turn to the next page.
In fact, these are not Gu Ningyuan's words, but Qin Shu used them as bedtime stories and told the young Gu Ningyuan one by one.Gu Ningyuan thought he had forgotten all about it, but he still remembered it in his mind. It was a very precious memory. Now he recalled it bit by bit, and then told Shen Yue.
Mama Liu was wrapping zongzi, she looked at the two with a smile in her eyes, and said in her heart, God bless, Qin Shu has finally had a blessing after so many years of good deeds.The old man and his wife passed away soon, and the young master found a family that could rely on each other again.
This is really good.
--------------
Unlike Gu's house, which is deserted and deserted, Gu Shengquan's house is very lively now.
The door of the villa was closed tightly, and the headlights hanging from the roof were as bright as daylight, shining brightly.
There are Gu family members everywhere.Men wear suits and ties, women wear jewelry and furs. Everyone is holding champagne, toasting and chatting happily.
It's just that it's not like a family banquet to promote feelings, everyone has a decent smile on their faces, it's more like a business dinner.
Gu Shengquan has been praised recently, and now he is even more overjoyed. He drank a lot of wine, his eyes were red, and his footsteps were a little unsteady. Yue Baoqin was by his side, taking the place of two people alone. The son stopped drinking, and acted as a daughter-in-law to persuade Gu Shengquan.
Someone praised and said: "You really found a good wife, you are really talented and virtuous."
Gu Shengquan didn't think much of her, and just smiled when he heard the words, "Is she? Just do her duty."
Yue Baoqin didn't argue, just lowered her eyebrows and blocked this man's glass of wine for Gu Shengquan.
As for Gu Hong, he was still in the crowd of women, and people with the same surname of the Gu family couldn't move, but it was not against the law to take a look and appreciate it.
Yue Baoqin has long since stopped counting on him, her own ability is better than anything else.Holding the wine glass in her hand, she smiled with the guests, skillfully used her wrists in communication, she drank wine glass after glass, revealing her white neck, and a faint blush on her pretty face, making others feel unbearable .
After drinking a lot, suddenly a servant came over, respectfully holding a letter with a few words written on it.
"Gu Shengquan greets you personally."
That character is a good character, with one stroke and one stroke, it is very strong, and it dazzled Yue Baoqin's eyes for a while.
Yue Baoqin took it calmly, apologized, asked the servant to take his place, walked to a dark corner, opened the envelope with a movement of long fingernails, and took out the letter paper stuck inside.
This piece of paper is very long, carefully folded, but thin, as if there is light shining through it.
Yue Baoqin's eyelids twitched inexplicably, his fingertips slid across the first line of words, and his eyes followed.
After reading less than ten lines, Yue Baoqin's face turned pale, she clenched her teeth, trying to hold herself back, but she could hardly bear the weight of the paper.
What she was most worried about happened, no, it was worse and more ruthless than she imagined!
A woman wearing a wide skirt passed by, the swaying skirt moved slightly, and a slight wind was blown up, and the thin piece of paper slipped from Yue Baoqin's hand and slowly floated not far away.
Yue Baoqin rushed over, not caring about the appearance of etiquette, with one hand propped on the ground, and the other hand tightly grasping the paper in the palm of his hand.She froze for a while, then looked around again, but didn't notice any movement here, the focus was on that piece of paper.
A man thought he accidentally fell down, so he stretched out his hand to help her up. Yue Baoqin's complexion was ghostly, even the brightest makeup couldn't cover it.She forced a smile and hurried to Gu Shengquan's side.
Yue Baoqin knew her father-in-law, husband, and even his mistress. She carefully studied everyone in the family, and was cautious in every step, so she climbed from a woman who couldn't even enter the house to her current position.
At first it was for love, but later, when the love was gone, it was just to keep money in hand.
Just like now, no matter how frightened she is, she will never tell the truth to Gu Shengquan's ears on this occasion, in public.Instead, he found another reason, tricked Gu Shengquan upstairs, closed the door, and handed out the letter.
"Eunuch, there is one important thing that needs to be decided by you."
Gu Shengquan was still drinking, and reprimanded Yue Baoqin, "What's the matter! I'm absent today, so what's the point of the following." Then he stretched out his thin hand and pulled the letter paper over.
Yue Baoqin thought sarcastically in his heart, if everyone here knew about this matter, they would say that you are the only one missing, and it is estimated that they would not be able to keep even one person.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Gu Shengquan sobered up from the alcohol, he was completely sober, and he was shocked.
He is old, and he could be regarded as not showing his emotions and anger at first, but there have been too many happy events recently, and his ability to endure for so many years has declined, and he can't suppress his anger at all at this time.
"Beast! Beast!"
I don't know who was scolding these two sounds, Yue Baoqin only heard a loud noise, Gu Shengquan kicked on the mahogany table, did not kick the table, backed a few steps by himself, terribly angry, and threw the things on the table All fell.
It's just that the piece of paper was still tightly held in the palm of his hand, not daring to let go of it.
This piece of paper was sent by Gu Ningyuan, and the words on the envelope were written by him himself.
It only details that Gu Hong has been addicted to gambling in recent years, lost all his money, and refused to sell his car and house to lose face, and secretly used the company's shares to pay, and the company's shares went all over the place. The gang who asked the casino to take advantage of it, sent out more and more money, but did not return any shares.
As for Gu Ningyuan, he said that he was a good junior. He spent a lot of money to buy back the shares, and he printed a form of the current company shareholders. There were two missing people, one Gu Hong and one Gu Shengquan.
Gu Sheng was so out of breath that he almost couldn't catch his breath.
The huge family business, the supreme power, and the bright future all came to naught in an instant.
Yue Baoqin waited for Gu Shengquan to calm down a little bit before daring to go over. She was completely calm at this time. She didn't have a share in the shares of the Gu family. She should be anxious, but it really didn't matter.
She pretended to be worried, and persuaded hesitantly, "Eunuch, should we call Gu Ningyuan first, check his tone first, and listen to what he has to say?"
Saying so, in fact, is now posting a shameless pleading, saying that relatives love each other.
Gu Shengquan trampled Gu Ningyuan under his feet, thinking that the Gu family was all his own, and it would be quite embarrassing for him to post it at this time.
Yue Baoqin sighed, and then persuaded, "Grandpa, if you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood. Tell the juniors, at most, it will make them respect you, so what does it matter?"
A servant outside came up to knock on the door, saying that some guests wanted to talk to the master, Gu Shengquan scolded, and then fell silent in an instant.
Gu Shengquan finally made up his mind and called Gu Zhai.
Uncle Chen came down from downstairs, "Sir, it's the fourth grandpa's call."
Gu Ningyuan's eyes paused, and he didn't care too much. He waved his hands casually, finished the story with Shen Yue, and handed Shen Yue a picture album before answering the phone leisurely.
This long wait was going to wipe away Gu Shengquan's anger.He thought about Gu Ningyuan's actions since Gu Lv's death until now, and felt more and more terrifying.
Is this a teenager?
He is not stupid, otherwise he would not be able to endure until now, but because of his age, he underestimated Gu Ningyuan, and his son was too stupid, dragging him into the water, and he was defeated.
"Is it fourth uncle?" Gu Ningyuan walked into the yard and asked casually.
"It's me, you are really mine, what a great nephew." Gu Shengquan still couldn't help revealing the deep hatred in these words.
Who says it's not? First hand over the rights to yourself, and then take it back easily, who can't hate it.
Gu Ningyuan sat in the small pavilion, and his tone was still respectful, "What's the matter? Does the Dragon Boat Festival gift I gave you make you happy?"
"Happy, very happy."
Gu Ningyuan tapped the table lightly with his knuckles, "That's good."
"What exactly do you want? Give me that thing first, instead of spreading it outside now." Gu Shengquan finally couldn't hold back his anger, and suddenly said.
"That's naturally filial piety. As for me?" Gu Ningyuan's voice gradually cooled down.
This time it's the point.
"I have something to entrust to you." Gu Ningyuan paused, and his tone calmed down again, "The company is too big now, and I am young and have no skills. I am afraid that I will not be able to convince the public. In charge of the company, you are highly respected, I am very satisfied."
There was silence on the phone.
Suddenly there was a roar.
"Gu Ningyuan! What are you! I want to take care of the Gu family for you! It's a trick!" Gu Shengquan cursed out of breath.
Gu Ningyuan turned a deaf ear, a fallen leaf floated past his eyes without raising his eyes.
"So what?" Gu Ningyuan finally returned to his usual coldness, weighing the pros and cons as if considering for him, "Gu Shengquan, do you lose face if you lose your shares, or do you still have shares even if you lose your shares?" Face, how about getting a huge salary?"
After only saying the last word, Gu Ningyuan hung up the phone without hesitation.
Suffering should be left to the other party.
Seeing that he hung up the phone, Yue Baoqin's eyelids twitched, "Elder-in-law, how are you doing?"
Gu Shengquan was still weighing, and after a long time, he sighed, "Is he..."
He probably felt that this daughter-in-law was quite capable, and she was still so calm after encountering such a big incident at the banquet, so she told the incident from beginning to end.
Yue Baoqin opened her eyes wide in shock.
After a long while, Gu Shengquan finally pulled up his strength, "Go, call me that evil person, it's him! He's such a thing!"
Yue Baoqin hurriedly stopped him, "Eunuch, you can't tell Brother Hong. He is the most straight-minded person, and if he finds out, he will be afraid, and he won't be able to hide it..."
What kind of personality is Gu Hong?
"This, this is true." Gu Shengquan held Yue Baoqin's hand, "It's all Gu Hong, he is lucky to marry such a good wife like you. Now that I am old, you just control him and tell him not to marry me again." It's so muddy."
"What's good or bad, it's all for our family."
Yue Baoqin smiled, and her bright red lips curled into a strange arc.
Gu Ningyuan hung up the phone and turned his head, only to see Shen Yue sticking to the glass door, his long eyelashes were like small brushes, blinking slowly, and seemed to be brushing on Gu Ningyuan's heart, making him feel itchy.
Pushing open the door with both hands, bending over to hug Shen Yue, Gu Ningyuan rubbed Shen Yue's soft and fair little face intimately.
Now Shen Yue won't blush over such a trivial matter.
"It's noon, let's eat zongzi. Well, do you like it?"
"...I haven't eaten it, I don't know? What kind of taste is it?"
"Hmm... There are many kinds, including sweet ones, red date ones, red bean ones, and salty ones."
"I want to eat something salty. After eating the zongzi, shall we wash the wormwood water? I haven't washed it either, brother, can you accompany me?"
"..."
"elder brother?"
"……it is good."
