Chapter 84 I Won't Let This Regret Happen
If Gu Chenran knew what the two siblings were thinking, he would definitely answer them with certainty: "Yes, I just don't like you guys always getting in the way between me and A Ling!"
Wen Ling is a person who doesn't say it out loud, but is actually very serious and responsible.
She would instruct the maids below to prepare winter clothes for the two siblings, and to ensure that the courtyard where they lived was heated when the weather was cold.
She would also invite her two siblings to eat with them and recommend to them the dishes she thought were delicious at the table.
Originally, Gu Chenran and Wen Ling had little time to spend alone together, as the Wanshiwu was busy during the day.
He and Wen Ling could only sit and chat alone during dinner.
Now, the little time I have alone has been destroyed by Xiaohui and Xiaocong.
Therefore, Gu Chenran’s resentment grew day by day.
Wen Ling didn't think too much about it, she thought he was just curious.
She helped explain: "It's a long story, and there are still things that haven't been investigated clearly. I'll tell you later when we eat. I ate a lot of melons today."
Gu Chenran's expression softened immediately: "Okay, let's talk about it slowly while we eat."
They don’t have the rule of not talking while eating or sleeping; living comfortably is their rule.
Wen Ling asked the two siblings who were about to walk away, "Would you like to eat together tonight?"
When the two siblings turned around, they saw Gu Chenran's dark eyes behind Wen Ling. They were so scared that they waved their hands again and again: "No, no, we ate too much at noon, we are not hungry!"
Then he ran away as if he had greased his feet.
Wen Ling asked curiously, "Are they worried about something? Why are they running so fast?"
Gu Chenran pulled Wen Ling's clothes and walked towards the restaurant: "Maybe the two siblings have something to say in private. Such a big thing happened today. You have to give them some space."
Wen Ling nodded: "You make sense. Ignore them. At most I can ask the kitchen to send them two meals. I can eat them anyway."
The smile on Gu Chenran's face became even more beautiful: "Okay, tell me what happened today."
Wen Ling saw Gu Chenran smiling so happily and thought, this prince really likes to eat melons.
While eating, Gu Chenran finished telling the story of Huo Lei and Yang Qingwan.
She drank the last mouthful of delicious soup in the bowl and concluded: "That's what happened. Because I was involved in changing the fate of Xiaohui and Mrs. Huo, I couldn't see the specific things that happened back then.
However, judging from the current situation, I don't think Mrs. Huo would raise such an unfaithful son. What do you think? ”
Gu Chenran slowly helped Wen Ling peel the shrimps: "Are you asking for my opinion?"
"Yeah!" Wen Ling took the shrimp from his hand and nodded.
After eating the melon, one has to express one's opinion, otherwise wouldn't her enthusiasm be in vain?
Gu Chenran lowered his head and looked at his fingertips which had just been touched by Wen Ling's warm lips, and he felt tingling and numb.
He withdrew his hand without leaving a trace, stroking it gently, and said lightly: "Maybe there is indeed some misunderstanding. Huo Lei really had some unspeakable secret at that time.
But there was definitely something wrong with the way he handled things. No matter what his reasons were, he was the main source of Yang Qingwan's miserable second half of life.
If it were me, I would definitely not forgive it. ”
Wen Ling held his chin up: "Please tell me in detail why you feel this way."
Gu Chenran looked into Wen Ling's eyes and said, "It's very simple. Huo Lei and Yang Qingwan have been together for about a month and a half since they met.
During this period of time, he could tell Yang Qingwan his true identity at any time. As long as he told her, there wouldn't be so many things that happened later.
What does this prove? It proves that he was not sincere at the beginning. ”
At this point, Gu Chenran paused and said, "Anyway, if it were me, I would either refuse contact directly from the beginning, or if I decided to start, I would be very honest and tell everything about myself.
So, I think Huo Lei does not deserve sympathy. If it were me, I would not forgive him. ”
He was very serious when he said this, his eyes sparkling and blinking under the light.
Wen Ling patted his head and praised him: "What a frank and good man you are. If everyone in the world had your awareness, there would be fewer resentful couples in the world."
Gu Chenran, who was praised, became more graceful in peeling shrimps. With his chin raised high subconsciously, he looked like a proud and elegant cat.
Gu Chenran put the last peeled one into Wen Ling's small plate and slowly wiped his fingers with a wet handkerchief: "But then again, for Xiaohui and Xiaocong, returning to the General's Mansion is their best choice.
Mrs. Huo is a rare wise person, and the three children she taught are all very outstanding. Under her training, Xiaohui and Xiaocong will have a better future. ”
Wen Ling nodded in agreement: "I think so too. In any case, it depends on their own choice."
As expected by Wen Ling, the General's Mansion investigated the matter very quickly.
Only three days had passed. On the fourth day, which was the day before the royal hunting party, someone came from the general's mansion and said that they wanted to find out what had happened that year.
Wen Ling immediately brought the two siblings to the general's mansion again.
Gu Chenran did not perform the 18-mile farewell today, because he also had things to do. He came to say hello to Wen Ling early in the morning and left first.
To be honest, Wen Ling was a little uncomfortable without Gu Chenran seeing her off to the door and without his earnest gaze.
When we arrived at the general's mansion, Madam Huo was already waiting at the door.
When she saw the two siblings, Xiaohui and Xiaocong, she smiled heartily, with wrinkles all over her face, looking particularly kind.
She pulled the two siblings to look them up and down, and said as she looked at them, "They have become whiter and fatter. It seems that they are living well in Prince Chen's Mansion. Look at our Xiaohui, how beautiful she has become after becoming whiter and fatter!"
Maybe it was because Mrs. Huo had never had a daughter, so she looked upon Xiaohui with special fondness.
What's good about my son? He can only play with swords and sticks all day long.
Xiao Hui was embarrassed by the compliments: "Grandma Huo, it's only been three days, how could things change so quickly?"
Wen Ling thought, this is the grandma filter.
Old Madam Huo laughed with joy, she just liked listening to Xiaohui talk. Look at this little girl talking in a soft voice and being shy, how likable!
After they sat down inside, Mrs. Huo took out a letter and showed it to Wen Ling and the others.
She sighed and said, "I have checked everything. Someone was indeed behind the incident. It was all a misunderstanding. Lei'er and Miss Yang wasted so many years in vain.
This is the letter that Lei'er left for Miss Yang. You can all take a look at it first. ”
After she finished, she asked the two siblings, "Children, can you read?"
She knew that the two children grew up in the slums, had never attended private school and were illiterate.
Unexpectedly, the two siblings nodded in unison: "We know all the common words. When mom was in good health, she taught us.
She said that people cannot be illiterate, as long as they are literate, they can see a wider world. ”
Old Madam Huo nodded with satisfaction. She sighed, "Your mother was the daughter of a successful candidate in the imperial examination. Naturally, she valued learning. You were well educated by her. Unfortunately... you had a miserable life..."
It's a pity that he was just one step late, otherwise he would have been approached by the general's mansion by now. In the end, he still didn't wait for the day when all the hard work would pay off.
Xiaohui and Xiaocong's eyes were red again. Yang Qingwan did not provide the children with good material conditions, but she gave the two children a lot of love.
The love and rewards received in childhood will become the armor for the two children in the future, protecting them from all the hardships and difficulties in life.
She is a good mother.
