MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 242 Go against the ears
Du Jingyi's words made Gu Xiaolang burst into tears.
With her intelligence, she naturally understands why the matter has reached this point, but she just wants to find an excuse to vent her anger on Du Jingyi.
After all, since she came to Sui'an City and entered the general's mansion, she has been tolerant on both sides. She has reached the point where she can no longer bear it any longer.
Simply, I can’t bear it anymore.
"I just want to be closer to my cousin Shaoyu. I just want to see him from time to time. Isn't this right? My grandmother asked me to go back to Jinling City and told my mother that when I go back, she will find a matchmaker again to talk about my marriage. Can’t delay any longer…”
"You... you are all sensible people, why do you all have to pretend to be confused in front of me?"
She cried sadly, but Du Jingyi standing opposite was very calm.
If someone who didn't know saw it, they might think it was Du Jingyi bullying her.
Seeing that she was crying hard, Du Jingyi also handed over his handkerchief. At first, Gu Xiaolang was not willing to accept it, but in the end he saw that his handkerchief was soaked and had no choice but to take it.
The faint fragrance on the handkerchief was the same as the incense on cousin Shaoyu's clothes. Smelling this, she cried more and more.
Finally, he muttered and said to Du Jingyi with red eyes.
"You deliberately!"
"right!"
Du Jingyi was not used to it and said directly. Not only that, he also straightened his clothes slightly and said to Gu Xiaolang.
"Everyone says that you are the only child of the Gu family, and you are a daughter's family, so everyone has to pamper you and care for you. Even though your grandmother has raised you extremely well, you are actually still a child who has never experienced hardships. milk doll."
"You! You are the baby! I am only a few months younger than you."
“Yes, you are only a few months younger than me in terms of age, but in terms of mind, do you think you are only a few months younger than me?”
Du Jingyi’s words made Gu Xiaolang not know how to reply.
On the other hand, Du Jingyi spoke bluntly to Gu Xiaolang without caring about his feelings at all.
"The Gu family is full of loyal people who sacrificed their lives for the country. As the only daughter in the family, you neither think about growing up quickly and doing your own thing to support the family and bear the hardships for the elders, nor do you think about using yourself as a bait to find someone. A reliable marriage can give the Gu family something to rely on in the wind and rain. For your little thoughts about your daughter's family, your grandmother and several aunts have been pushing away your marriage all day long. .”
"Do you think everyone else is a fool? Do you think the Gu family still has any authority that is worthy of others? In other words, do you, Miss Gu, have any authority that is worthy of others?"
Du Jingyi's words were harsh and sharp, and he directly broke the current situation between Gu Xiaolang and the Gu family in front of her.
The truth was **** and naked. Even though she already knew it in her heart, she just didn't want to face it.
"Who said I didn't have any plans! If you hadn't interfered, I would have been able to be with cousin Shaoyu. This not only fulfilled my wish, but also saved the Gu family's situation. It's all your fault!"
Gu Xiaolang screamed, finally speaking out what he had been holding in his heart for several months.
Li Zhu had learned martial arts and had better hearing skills, so he wanted to rush forward angrily, but was stopped by Cherry. She had a hunch that her young lady had not finished speaking yet, so she held Li Zhu to prevent her from destroying it.
Not far away, Mrs. Gu, her third aunt, her fourth aunt, Shang Ji and Xing Zhao were also standing, using the rockery in the yard to block their sight, but in fact they could hear clearly. .
The third aunt felt distressed that her daughter was being scolded and wanted to help her out, but the fourth aunt held her back with a very serious expression.
Mrs. Gu glanced over at her, and the third aunt did not dare to move, so she could only listen obediently.
"The Gu family has pampered you. Everything must be based on your wishes. If you like the general, you must marry him. If you don't like Sanlang of the Yan family, we will reject the post. Do you think that there are three people in the world? Auntie? Everyone wants to pamper you and obey you? "
A few words shocked Gu Xiaolang, a child who had been raised by nobles since childhood, to the point where he could no longer understand what he was saying.
Just cry and cry with eyes wide open, full of sorrow, doubt and embarrassment.
Seeing that the desired effect was achieved, Du Jingyi stopped chasing and started fighting. Instead, he adopted a gentle policy and said to Gu Xiaolang.
"Cousin Lang also said just now that you are only a few months younger than me, so it is appropriate for your grandmother and third aunt to propose marriage to you. Or should you say that you have to guard them all your life and let them protect you from wind and rain? ? If one day, they are all gone, tell me, who will support the Gu family? You? Or your stubborn and obsessive girlish friendship? "
Every word Du Jingyi said was like a heavy punch falling on Gu Xiaolang's heart.
The stability she once thought was actually the most shaky.
Grandma is already old, and there are no other sons and daughters in the family. Only three aunts and her mother are here, so it can’t be a big deal. And it’s not like she doesn’t know the situation at home. What if they are all gone too?
Where should I go?
The Gu family, where will the Gu family be?
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaolang's eyes became filled with more self-blame and shame.
She was brought up by Mrs. Gu since she was a child. She should be a person who understands etiquette and advances and retreats, and can even deal with the family.
However, the woman who lost both her father and her brother was suddenly forced to become the only comfort in the family. Everyone loved her and took care of her, and over time she became a habit.
So on the surface, it looks like she has been raised like a girl from a noble family, but in fact, she has been raised so well that she cannot withstand beatings. If she is not satisfied at all, she will blame this one, and those who are dissatisfied with that have never thought about the interests of the family and relatives.
The Gu family today, and she today, is she still in a situation where she can "act arbitrarily"?
All the self-confidence she had built up in the past was exposed by her cousin Du Jingyi. She suddenly felt like a burden to the Gu family. She had been making unreasonable troubles and had to make everyone in the family think about her.
While thinking about it, he fell down on the porch, as if he had received a huge blow.
Du Jingyi protected his stomach and took half a step back. Seeing Gu Xiaolang's behavior, he stopped being aggressive.
Just said it lightly.
"Three years ago, when the Duke of Guo and Mrs. Wei came to my Du family to discuss marriage, I had just grown up. With the wealth of my Du family, I didn't say how big a family I wanted to marry, but I wanted to find a family with whom I had equal ties and close the door. Life can't be more comfortable, but the Duke's government bullies the weak, so in order to protect my family, I can only bite the bullet and marry in."
