Gu Qingcheng looked like she listened to her son and was proud of him.

Qian saw this and laughed at her again in her heart: A mother actually has to listen to a nine-year-old child.

As parents, we should have at least some dignity in front of our children.

But this Gu family actually did the opposite.

Qian had another idea in her mind, but not now.

For now, the most important thing is to coax Gu as soon as possible and make her hand over the silver.

Since Gu values ​​his son so much, let's start from this aspect.

Qian's eyes rolled around, "My cousin, if it's for Dalang, you should do business with me."

When she spoke, she had an air of "Just listen to me, I'm doing this for your own good."

Gu Qingcheng, a naive and easily influenced woman, was indeed fooled by her words.

Gu Qingcheng pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Why? My husband said I'm soft-hearted... ahem, anyway, he won't let me take money casually."

What does it mean to be soft-tempered?

It's obvious that he is easily influenced and stupid.

More than one hundred taels of silver, you can lend it out if you say you want to, and you can’t take it back if you say you don’t want it!

Humph, if I were your son, I would definitely take care of you!

Qian rolled her eyes in her heart and complained with disdain.

After seeing Gu's behavior with her own eyes, Qian understood very well the "helplessness" of her son Zhao Qingyun.

I also understand why Zhao Qingyun controls his mother in every way.

However, the more Qian thought about it, the more determined she became - if she didn't cheat such a stupid woman, even God would be displeased!

"Oh, Dalang, this is not good!"

"We are relatives, we are family, so I won't pick on it."

"But if outsiders knew about this, they would definitely say that Dalang was unfilial to his widowed mother."

"Oh my, that's what I thought. No wonder I heard some bad rumors a few days ago."

Qian's ups and downs in his performance created a perfect atmosphere.

Gu Qingcheng was frightened, and asked anxiously, "What bad rumors? Is it about my Dalang?"

Qian pretended to be embarrassed and started the conversation herself, but now she was "hesitant".

He is very skilled at keeping people in suspense.

"My dear cousin, we are all family, so please don't hide anything from me!"

Gu Qingcheng became more and more anxious. She held Qian's hand and begged in a low voice.

Seeing that the time had come, Qian looked around, lowered her voice, and said mysteriously, "Cousin, we are relatives. I won't hide it from you, but after hearing this, don't run out and question others."

"Otherwise, what would I become? People would just call me a gossip and a big mouth. I would be a nobody!"

Gu Qingcheng hurriedly shook her head, "No, I won't tell you! I won't ask! Cousin, don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you."

Qian was satisfied and whispered, "Some people outside say that your eldest son is too domineering. He's so young, yet he dares to control his mother."

"You are a virtuous woman who has established a family, and he doesn't even know how to respect you."

"Yes, you are indeed a little weak, but no matter how weak you are, you are still his biological mother and his elder. How could he turn the world upside down and be disobedient and unfilial?"

The words "disobedience and unfilial piety" are too serious. In ancient times, they could easily cost a child's life!

Not to mention that Zhao Qingyun still has to take the imperial examination to become an official, so his reputation must not have any flaws.

At the beginning, Gu Qingcheng did not choose to completely turn against the people in the Zhao family's old house. In addition to "fighting poison with poison", she also considered Zhao Qingyun.

A senior official like Zhao Qingyun, who is destined to reach the highest position in the country, cannot have even a single stain on him.

Even if you have a mother who is forced to become a shrew, it won’t work!

People always use the highest moral standards to treat others. If Zhao Qingyun wants to reach the highest and go the furthest in officialdom, he must be like a "saint" in some aspects!

Even if the original owner, Gu, did not have such a plan as Gu Qingcheng, she knew that the words "disobedient and unfilial" must never be associated with her own son.

Gu Qingcheng's mind raced, and she revealed a look of panic.

Her eyes turned red and tears began to roll down her cheeks. "Nonsense! Are you spreading rumors? My Dalang is a filial son!"

"He's not disobedient or unfilial. He is the most caring, intelligent, and filial child in the world!"

Gu Qingcheng began to sob, and kept speaking in defense of Zhao Qingyun.

In the previous life, when he saw Gu Gu Qingcheng crying like a pear blossom in the rain, he was a little dazed: Damn, this Gu is so beautiful, she looks so beautiful even when she cries!

After a moment of distraction, Qian felt proud.

She has grasped the vital point of the Gu family!

"I know! All of us relatives know!"

"But, outsiders don't know."

"So, cousin, in order to clear Dalang's name, you have to cooperate with me!"

After going around in circles, Qian finally brought the topic back to the point.

"ah?"

Gu Qingcheng was stunned, with tears on her long eyelashes.

A woman who is almost thirty years old, making such a confused and bewildered expression, surprisingly does not feel out of place.

Qian suppressed her admiration for the beauty and continued to follow her own train of thought, saying to Gu Qingcheng, "Cousin, think about it, why would outsiders slander Dalang for being disrespectful to his elders and disobedient and unfilial?"

"Isn't it because you are weak and can't bear the burden of the Zhao family?"

"But if you do business with me, it will be different!"

"You make money, and you let people know that even though you're sick and weak, you're still able to earn money and support your family."
