Chapter 132 Collapse
The situation became increasingly out of control.
The old woman pulled Gu Ziyun to go out, Lin Wanhui held Gu Ziyun tightly and refused to let her son be taken away, while Gu Ziyun hugged Chen Xinlian's thigh tightly: "Madam, madam, listen to me..."
"Get lost! I am the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion and will never be wronged like this!!"
On the day she entered the house, her concubine gave birth to a child, and she even brought it up during the wedding ceremony. Doesn't she still take her, the bride, seriously?
"The Marquis' Mansion is going too far!"
The maid brought by Chen Xinlian immediately turned around and walked out when she saw this. She wanted to go and inform the master that this matter was no trivial matter.
"What about Mu Yanluo? What about the baby in her belly? As a father, won't you save her?"
The old woman was also screaming, and Gu Zixuan stepped forward: "I'll save her! Lai Fu, take the old woman to find the midwife!"
"yes!"
Lai Fu and his maid left in a hurry, but Gu Zixuan did not leave. Today's show was not over yet, so he had to stay and watch the fun.
Gu Changqing felt a dull pain in his head.
His face looked extremely ugly. This farce made him feel ashamed. He did not expect that Gu Ziyun would do such a thing.
She is a prostitute in a brothel, and also Gu Zixuan's old lover. What, what is this?
Although he felt extremely embarrassed, he still stood up and said, "Everyone, please take your seats first. Xinlian, the ceremony has been completed. You are already the granddaughter-in-law of the Marquis's Mansion. Why don't you go in?"
In short, face is important, face is important!!
The servants finally reacted and hurried to greet the guests. Everyone left reluctantly. After all, they had not seen the sequel yet. This excitement was just the beginning.
Chen Xinlian said angrily: "I don't want to get married!"
Gu Changqing frowned, showed his proper dignity, and said coldly: "Let's talk about everything after your father comes!"
"My father?" Chen Xinlian laughed angrily: "My father is naturally on my side. Besides, you are a marriage fraud. If it weren't for her..."
Chen Xinlian turned her head and pointed at Lin Wanhui, her eyes red with anger: "If you hadn't been praising Gu Ziyun in front of me, saying that he was the most promising in the Marquis' Mansion, and that Gu Zixuan was incompetent and a playboy, he wouldn't even be able to get into the second or third place, but what about now? Gu Zixuan is at least the third place, how could he be worse than Gu Ziyun's second place?!"
Although the palace examination ranked first and second, in fact, the gap between everyone was not that big as you went up the list. They were all top scorers in their respective provinces, and when they got together, the only difference might be that you scored 698 in the college entrance examination and he scored 698.5.
Moreover, they are all the top three in the class, whose names have been announced before the emperor. They have caught the emperor's eye and will be promoted in the future. So, in the final analysis, the gap is not that big.
Isn't marrying Gu Ziyun the same as marrying Gu Zixuan?
Chen Xinlian is so regretful.
Why was she blinded by Lin Wanhui's sweet words and finally chose such a man?
Although Gu Zixuan is a bit dissolute, at least he and Mu Yanluo are innocent and have never done anything shameful. But what about Gu Ziyun?
What is this?
She was having an ambiguous relationship with the person her brother liked, and they even had a child?
Chen Xinlian felt disgusted!
"Xinlian, Xinlian, listen to me..."
Gu Ziyun was really scared. Marrying Chen Xinlian was already the best marriage he could get. Apart from Minister Chen, no other father-in-law could give him such great help. Moreover, Minister Chen might enter the cabinet in the future. Wouldn't it be easy for him to promote himself?
"Don't touch me!"
Chen Xinlian suddenly waved Gu Ziyun away and slapped her sleeves in disgust. Although she was the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, she had a strong temper and was outspoken, otherwise she would not have spoken ill of Gu Zixuan in front of the people in the Marquis' Mansion.
"You make me sick!"
Gu Ziyun's heart sank suddenly, and he felt terrible. He had a feeling that things were out of control.
Didn't that damn Mu Yanluo tell her that everything would be settled after the wedding? Why did she make such a fuss today? It was just giving birth to a child. What woman doesn't give birth to a child? It's just a little bleeding. Why is she still making such a fuss? What a fool! She doesn't even have the guts to do that!
Gu Ziyun cursed Mu Yanluo in his heart, but Chen Xinlian no longer wanted to see Gu Ziyun again.
Gu Changqing drove out all the people in the room, even Gu Zixuan and other brothers and sisters in the mansion. Only Zou, Gu Zhao, Su Jin, Gu Changqing and Lin Wanhui were left.
At this moment, even the maids were not allowed to enter, so Lin Wanhui became the only labor force. She comforted the old lady while serving tea and water to several people.
When she poured the water in front of Su Jin, Lin Wanhui bit her lips tightly and her hands holding the kettle were shaking.
She was angry and felt that she was inferior to Su Jin. What happened today really made her lose face. At first she was still jumping around, but now she missed a step and fell into the mud, becoming the most shameful one.
The atmosphere in the room was extremely depressing, but Minister Chen's family arrived quickly. As soon as Chen Huailiang entered the room, Chen Xinlian threw herself into his arms and cried bitterly: "Father, wuwuwu..."
Chen Huailiang comforted his daughter and handed her over to Xu. Gu Changqing hurried over. Just as he was about to open his mouth, Chen Huailiang had already spoken: "I will report this matter to His Majesty truthfully. Gu Changqing, this matter is not over yet!"
After saying that, he turned around and grabbed Chen Xinlian's hand: "Let's go!"
"Wait, Master Chen, let's talk!"
Gu Changqing was so anxious that he chased after her: "We have already worshipped the heaven and earth, the ceremony has been completed, what's the point of taking her back now? Do you still want to keep Xinlian's reputation?"
Chen Huailiang laughed angrily and cursed: "Oh, so the Marquis' Mansion also wants reputation. If you want reputation, why not discipline your children first!"
"First, Gu Zixuan was determined to marry the prostitute. At that time, did your mansion consider our reputation when we were engaged? It was not easy to get a replacement, Gu Ziyun, but who would have thought that he would be even more unreliable and give birth to a child out of wedlock on the day of the wedding? Ha, reputation? Our reputation has long been trampled on by Gu Ziyun and the mansion!"
"Okay, a dignified Marquis' Mansion doesn't even take a third-rank official seriously. I will definitely report this to His Majesty!!"
Chen Huailiang's beard was trembling with anger. They were happily getting married, but now he had to bring his daughter back in person with a rage. Face? Didn't he, Chen Huailiang, want face? But will you give it to him? Will you give it to him? !
This is really too much!
Chen Huailiang was furious and took his daughter away without saying a word.
Gu Changqing couldn't stop it, and even what happened today had already spread out and everyone knew about it.
Passersby pointed and talked at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion. After all the happy wedding, only the Marquis' family was left, facing the hall alone without a bride. The big red wedding characters on the wall seemed like a naked irony, mocking everyone harshly.
Gu Changqing collapsed.
