Chapter 51: There must be something hateful about pitiful people
The eldest princess learned about Gu Guilan on the first day she returned.
After learning of Gu Guilan's final fate, the eldest princess was speechless for a long time. She went back to her room and locked herself in it until the next morning.
After she came out, she didn't mention anything about Gu Guilan again.
However, Gu Guilan's body was thrown into a mass grave in the suburbs, where it was collected and buried, and a simple wooden tablet was erected.
It was the eldest princess's men who restrained Gu Guilan.
As mother and daughter, even if Gu Guilan did something wrong, not letting her be left dead in the wilderness can be considered as fulfilling the relationship between mother and daughter.
After all, it was not her who forced Gu Guilan to death, but her biological mother.
It turned out that after Gu Guilan took the things out of the house, she was found by her biological mother Lanxiang.
The son-in-law was imprisoned in the Dali Temple for interrogation, and her cousin Huang Liang was thrown directly into prison because he embezzled a huge amount of money from the Ma Bank and the evidence was conclusive. I'm afraid these two people will never get out.
Lanxiang and her son Liu Yaozu wandered around the capital almost penniless. All her valuables were taken away by the people in the Princess's Mansion.
She was helpless, had nowhere to go, and had nowhere to go.
When he saw Gu Guilan being driven out by the princess with a package on her body, he knew that she must have silver, so he went to look for her immediately.
Lanxiang hugged Gu Guilan and cried, saying that they and her had a miserable life, and that the princess was cruel and heartless, driving out the daughter she had raised for so many years just because of a small mistake.
She also said that in the future, even if she had to work like a slave, she would still support her daughter and son.
Gu Guilan believed her biological mother and softened her heart.
She really believed what her mother said, pawned all her valuable jewelry, bought a small courtyard in a slum in Beijing, and lived a good life with her mother and brother.
Unexpectedly, her mother and brother could not live a hard life. None of the three of them were able to work and earn money, and they lived off the money Gu Guilan pawned.
They didn't know how to be frugal at all. His younger brother Yaozu had lavish meals every day, and the limited silver they had was squandered in less than half a month.
Moreover, the younger brother's arrogant and domineering temper did not change. After being ridiculed by his former powerful classmates, he beat the son of a wealthy man until his head was bleeding.
They came to my door and demanded three hundred taels of silver as compensation.
Lanxiang wanted to sell the yard she had just bought. The housing prices in the capital were high, and even a yard in the slums would cost two or three hundred taels.
But Gu Guilan disagreed. She said that she had spent all her savings to buy the yard, so why should she sell it to compensate her brother? She asked Lanxiang to figure out a solution herself.
The result was that she was knocked unconscious by Lanxiang and sold to the number one brothel in the capital.
Because Gu Guilan used to be Princess Anle, she was a princess after all. Even if she isn't a princess now, if she were to become a prostitute, she would definitely be very attractive and could make a lot of money.
So Gu Guilan was sold by Lanxiang for a high price of five hundred taels.
When Gu Guilan woke up, she found out that she had been sold to a brothel by her own mother and the indenture had even been signed with her fingerprints.
Her mother sold her and used the money to compensate her brother, leaving her with two hundred taels. She continued to live happily with her brother in the courtyard bought with her money.
Gu Guilan was furious, and it was at this time that she finally came to her senses.
It turns out that her mother's kindness to her was all fake, she just wanted her money, and her mother only had her brother in her heart from beginning to end.
The eldest princess is the one who loves her and is truly good to her.
Gu Guilan was filled with regret. She cried and wanted to go to the Princess's Mansion to apologize to the Princess. She wanted to go home.
But it was too late.
"Then she was forced to entertain customers and went crazy, running naked in the capital and jumping into a river and died."
While helping Wen Ling pick out the fish bones slowly, Gu Chenran slowly told Wen Ling what happened after Gu Guilan left the princess's mansion.
His voice was calm, and no matter what he said, there was no ripple, but his logic was clear and what he said was very understandable.
Wen Ling sighed: "You are right. Gu Guilan will not have a good ending after leaving the mansion. I didn't expect it to be so miserable in the end.
It is true that there must be something hateful about a pitiful person. He plays a good hand of cards badly. This is exactly what people like Gu Guilan are like. ”
Gu Chenran remained noncommittal.
He met with an unexpected change of fate and fell from the altar into the mire overnight. Over the years, he had experienced the ups and downs of life and had long seen through human nature.
When he was alone in the room for fear of having an attack, his favorite thing to do was to try to figure out people's minds over and over again.
No one understands human heart better than him.
"What a pity," Gu Chenran suddenly said, "Lanxiang, who was the worst offender in this incident, was not punished at all. She even got a yard in the capital and a lot of money."
"So you see, in this world, either don't do bad things, or be bad to the end, otherwise sooner or later you will not end well."
Wen Ling felt that when Gu Chenran said this, a faint black mist emanated from her body, and she looked both good and evil, dangerous and beautiful.
Seeing Gu Chenran like this, a scene suddenly appeared in her mind where Gu Chenran was wearing a dragon robe, sitting on the supreme dragon throne, with a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood under his feet.
Wen Ling shuddered and came back to his senses.
No way, no way, it’s impossible that Gu Chenran, who possesses the true dragon purple energy, would be healed with her help, and finally become a tyrant who kills innocent people and devastates the entire country!
"What are you thinking about?" Gu Chenran suddenly stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her.
"Ah? I didn't think about anything!" Wen Ling said subconsciously.
Gu Chenran smiled at her gently: "Try this fish meat, this kind of fish is very delicious. The only drawback is that it has a lot of bones. But I have shaved off all the bones, so you can eat it without worry."
Looking at Gu Chenran who was shaving the thorns considerately, it was hard to associate his gentle and focused appearance with a tyrant in a sea of corpses and blood.
Wen Ling scratched her head, maybe she was overthinking it.
If Gu Chenran had been possessed by Xie Xin before he met her, he would probably have become a tyrant like that.
But now Gu Chenran will no longer be possessed by the evil mind, and his body has recovered, so he should not go down that path again.
Wen Ling took the small bowl of fish and took a bite. She narrowed her eyes with happiness and said, "It's delicious!"
He looked very satisfied, just like a kitten that is easily satisfied.
Gu Chenran curled the corners of his mouth: "It's delicious. I'll shave a few more pieces of fish for you."
"Yeah!" Wen Ling nodded vigorously.
Her biggest hobby now is eating. Delicious food makes her feel fulfilled and gives her a sense of being truly alive.
She likes this feeling.
Real living is no longer like the previous life. Although we have infinite life, we are just a wandering consciousness in the world.
Every day when Wen Ling had nothing to do, she would go to work diligently in the shop she opened.
Although there is no ghost in the Yorozuya every day, Wen Ling never gets tired of it.
When I arrived at the Wanshiwu today, I found that it was full of people inside and outside, and there was a long queue outside.
