Chapter 1136: What evil intentions could Young Master Gu have?
After lunch, Tang Zijin and Tang Zixin sat for a while until Gu Jian was about to take a nap, then they got up and left.
As soon as they left Gu Jian's yard, Tang Zixin looked at Tang Zijin with a sneer: "Second sister is really capable. You angered the young master, but won the favor of the old Duke. I really look at you with new eyes."
Tang Zijin frowned as she looked at Tang Zixin's sarcasm. Not wanting to argue with her, she said in a cold voice, "Big sister, you and I are guests at Peach Blossom Mountain now. I advise you to control your temper, lest people think that the girls of the Tang family are poorly brought up."
Tang Zixin's face was furious, and he pointed at Tang Zijin angrily: "You"
At home, Tang Zijin didn't dare to talk back to her because of her grandmother's favoritism. But today, she just caught the old Duke's eye, and he dared to disrespect her, his elder sister!
Tang Zixin was about to scold him when she saw Gu Moyan approaching from the corner of her eye. Her eyes rolled and she immediately revealed a look of shock and grievance: "Sure enough, Second Sister, you usually pretend to be obedient and submissive."
"On the surface, you seem to always put me, your eldest sister, first in everything, but in fact, behind the scenes, you don't even take me seriously. Second sister, you are a two-faced villain who says one thing in front of you and another behind your back!"
As he spoke, he looked deeply shocked, "Second sister, your harmless face really deceived everyone."
Tang Zijin watched Tang Zixin's expression change and acting coldly. She was no longer surprised by such things. She didn't even need to guess, she knew someone was coming.
"Big sister, do you think this trick of yours is powerful? I think anyone who is not blind should be able to see through it."
Hearing this, Tang Zixin remained calm, still looking aggrieved.
But Gu Moyan, who walked to the gate of the courtyard, snorted. Was the little fat face hinting at him?
If he comes forward to help Tang Zixin, he is blind? !
Before Gu Moyan could get over there, the Husky at his feet rushed out.
"Woof woof woof~"
The Husky rushed to the Tang sisters and roared at Tang Zixin viciously, as if it was going to bite her. Tang Zixin was so scared that her face turned pale and she backed away repeatedly. While backing away, she stepped on the hem of her skirt in panic and fell to the ground in embarrassment.
“Erha!”
Gu Moyan and Tang Zijin were both extremely surprised by Erha's sudden attack.
Fortunately, Tang Zijin reacted quickly and stopped Erha quickly. He squatted down and gently stroked Erha's head and back, which calmed Erha down.
Gu Moyan also came over at this time. Looking at the Husky that had become docile in Tang Zijin's hands, he couldn't help but think of the dead Daha.
Daha and Erha are the third litter of puppies of Gou Xiaoyi. The first litter of puppies was adopted by his eldest brother, the second litter was adopted by Xiao Keyan, and the third litter is his.
Unfortunately, even though he took good care of them, in the end only Daha and Erha survived.
When he was in Xiliang, he thought Tang Zijin was cute, so he often took her out to play and allowed her to play with Daha and Erha. But he didn't expect that she would kill Daha in the end.
He raised Daha and Erha by himself, playing with him and sleeping with him. They are no longer ordinary pets.
He was very sad and regretful about Daha's death. He shouldn't have let Tang Zijin get in touch with Daha and Erha.
Although so many years have passed and the anger in his heart has almost dissipated, and as a grown man, it is not appropriate for him to hold grudges with a girl, he still feels a little repulsive in his heart.
"Erha, come back!"
Looking at Gu Moyan with a cold voice and a stern face, Tang Zijin immediately realized that he disliked her, and suddenly felt a little scared and a little wronged.
Why did the young master suddenly get angry with her?
She didn't do anything?
Could it be that he believed what his elder sister said?
After getting the Husky back, Gu Moyan ignored Tang Zijin who was looking aggrieved, and didn't even look at Tang Zixin who was still sitting on the ground and hadn't gotten up. He strode away.
Only after he walked away did Tang Zixin's maid come to her senses and trot over to help Tang Zixin up.
Although Tang Zixin lost face, she also saw that Gu Moyan disliked Tang Zijin, which made her feel better.
The Tang family stayed in Taohua Mountain until mid-afternoon and then left by boat.
When getting on the boat, Tang Zijin looked back at Taohua Mountain, but did not see Gu Moyan. Feeling a little disappointed, he walked into the cabin dejectedly.
In the cabin, Lord Tang personally picked up the food box and looked at the cakes inside. He smiled and said, "The chefs here at Taohua Mountain are from the imperial kitchen in the palace. This time, thanks to Zijin, our family can taste the taste of the imperial cakes."
Mrs. Tang had a proud smile on her face. These pastries were personally delivered by Aunt Caiju, who served the old Duke, specially for her daughter.
Before, she was worried that with Tang Zixin around, her daughter would be left out in the cold again. Obviously, the old Duke was a wise man and saw the good in his daughter.
"Zijin."
Mrs. Tang wanted to ask Tang Zijin about the dinner they had with the old Duke, but she suddenly realized her daughter was distracted and asked, "Zijin, what's wrong with you?"
Tang Zijin came back to his senses and shook his head: "My daughter is fine."
Tang Zixin on the side glanced at her and said with a smile: "Second sister is probably worried."
As soon as these words were spoken, Lord Tang and Madam Tang looked over at the same time, and Tang Zijin also frowned and looked at Tang Zixin who was about to cause trouble again.
Mr. Tang: "What are you worried about?"
Tang Zixin: "I'm worried that the young master will be angry. It seems that my second sister has offended the young master before."
Lord Tang immediately looked at Tang Zijin: "Zijin, how did you offend the young master?"
Under normal circumstances, Tang Zijin would not be willing to and did not want to conflict with Tang Zixin, but today she had been provoking trouble again and again. Tang Zijin did not want to tolerate it anymore and quickly recounted what happened when they left Gu Jian's yard.
Seeing that Lord Tang's face darkened, Tang Zixin immediately tried to defend herself.
Tang Zijin was well aware of her eloquence and knew that her father favored her because she had lost her biological mother. So he said directly, "If I tell even a single lie, I will die a miserable death!"
"Zijin!"
Mrs. Tang suddenly stood up and rushed to Tang Zijin, tapping her forehead angrily and anxiously: "You girl, you really dare to say anything and you are not afraid of taboos."
As he spoke, he glanced at Lord Tang.
"Your father is an official appointed by the imperial court, in charge of the affairs of an entire province. Is it possible that your father can't resolve the little dispute between you two sisters? Is there any need for you to swear an oath to heaven here?"
Hearing this, Lord Tang looked a little uncomfortable.
As a father, he certainly knew the personalities of his two daughters.
He saw that his younger daughter never fought or competed, and always gave way to his elder daughter.
After all, the eldest daughter lost her biological mother, so if it was a small matter, he would usually take it over lightly.
Today the younger daughter was so angry that she said such harsh words, which shows that it was the eldest daughter who did it.
Lord Tang looked at Tang Zixin. Tang Zixin's heart tightened and he wanted to argue, but Lord Tang raised his hand to stop him.
Lord Tang did not make a conclusion immediately, but asked the two sisters' maids to reconstruct what happened at that time.
Under his gaze, the maid naturally did not dare to hide anything.
After understanding what happened, Master Tang looked at Tang Zixin with some disappointment: "You are the eldest sister. When you go out, you should take care of your younger brothers and sisters. But what did you do?"
"Our family has just arrived in Zhongzhou, and we should be working together. You are slandering your sister outside, which is a discredit to our family."
"I don't want to see this kind of thing again. When you return home, stay in your room and reflect on it for a while. Only go out when you have figured it out."
Tang Zixin looked at Lord Tang in disbelief. Was her father going to confine her?
From childhood to adulthood, even if she did something wrong, her father would never really punish her, and he had never even confined her to her place of residence.
Tang Zixin felt that the punishment was too severe, but Mrs. Tang felt that it was too light.
She thought to herself that she had done her best for Tang Zixin over the years, but this girl was impossible to tame. At home, she was competitive and always put her daughter first. When she went out, she either tried to show off or maliciously slandered her daughter. It seemed that she was really too hot-tempered!
After that, when teaching Tang Zixin how to manage the household and deal with people, Mrs. Tang was perfunctory throughout and did not teach her real skills at all.
The harem is a woman's battlefield. Without some real skills, it is undoubtedly a pipe dream to want to live an easy and comfortable life!
