Chapter 157: Inability to express anger
Concubine Liao knew her son very well and knew that Gu Changting was extremely suspicious. She felt confused for a moment. She was so guilty that she did not dare to look into her son's eyes. She just said: "I
...I am also confused by you. Can you say this easily if you spoil your concubine and destroy your wife? You...you don't know how much it will hurt your mother's heart, your cousin..."
"If I remember correctly, my cousin has been in charge of the warehouse all these years, right? Even when Feng Rong was alive, she was weak and never had a hand in the warehouse."
"You...what do you want to say?"
Concubine Liao couldn't help but take two steps back, and immediately felt embarrassed. She couldn't help but look at Gu Changting and said angrily: "What do you want to say?"
"It's nothing. Mother, just have a good rest. I'll go to the warehouse to choose Dragon Boat Festival gifts for Nian Nian."
Gu Changting smiled slightly and stopped asking Concubine Liao. After bowing, he turned around and went out.
"You...you come back."
Concubine Liao fell down on the couch and screamed helplessly. But when she saw her son walking away without looking back, she couldn't help but fell down on the soft pillow, beat the wooden couch and cried: "What evil have I done? Why?"
Such a rebellious thing was born."
"It's important, Princess, to take care of yourself. Don't be angry or sad. Your Majesty has always been filial. He was just out of temper today..."
Mrs. Qian quickly stepped forward to comfort her. The next moment, Concubine Liao sat up and gritted her teeth: "Yes, Changting has always been filial, why has he become like this now? Look, it's just a Dragon Boat Festival celebration."
, this is what happened. Mrs. Xin, it’s all Mrs. Xin, I’m a filial son, but she instigated her to do something bad. I... I wish I could cut her into pieces with a thousand knives..."
Qian was startled and said hurriedly: "Concubine, you can't say these words to the prince. If something happens to Mr.
It’s really not worth losing the love between mother and child.”
Concubine Liao caressed her chest and gasped with anger, but she did as she pleased and did not dare to say anything more.
The room fell silent for a while, and then Mrs. Liao asked Qian, "Do you think that scoundrel wants to check the warehouse? What he just said to me clearly made him suspicious."
"Let's do an inventory. After so many years, where can we find all the old bad debts? Even if the prince finds out that the concubine and grandma did give some things to the Liao family, it is his maternal grandfather's house after all. The concubine and him are crying and complaining about the Liao family.
The difficulty is, do you have the nerve to take it seriously, Your Majesty?"
Concubine Liao blushed, coughed and said, "Theoretically, the royal family has a lot of income and a limited amount of money, so it's okay to just help the Liao family. I'm afraid that this evil will be exploited and I won't be spared."
Qian said with a smile: "If the prince really doesn't care about the love between mother and son, the concubine should not care about her dignity. Naturally, with your status, you can't do such things as cry, make trouble, and hang yourself, but because you are worried about getting sick,
Isn't it normal to be bedridden or something like that? This old slave doesn't believe it, does the prince really have the heart to force you to death?"
"Yes." Concubine Liao nodded: "In the end, you are the one who sees clearly. This makes sense."
After saying that, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the Dragon Boat Festival gift given by the palace on the table. Concubine Liao felt extremely disgusted in her heart and waved her hand: "Let everyone take it down. Really, everything is caused by these things. Sister, too, just care about
I wanted to support Jiaru, but I didn’t want to think that this is Prince Duanqin’s palace, not the palace, and she has the final say. In the end, it caused such a turmoil and made me miserable here.”
"Alas! The Queen is also kind-hearted. Who would have thought that our prince would cherish the Xin family so much."
Mrs. Qian hurriedly called the little girls to come in and put away a table full of things. When she went out to look at the sky, she saw a few dark clouds floating in all directions, and her heart sank.

"I'm just aggrieved for you, but our queen is too stingy. As the saying goes, if you don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, she won't like you no matter how hard she is, you have to put on a show of dignity.
You’ve taken care of the prince’s face, what does that mean now?”
The windows of the outhouse were all open, and the gauze curtains were rustling in the wind.
Xin Nian and Aunt Gu were sitting opposite each other on the couch, winding a roll of silk thread when they heard Gu
The aunt complained, so she smiled and said: "Okay, I haven't said anything yet, but you complained about a truck of wheels. What? Because I have hurt you and you didn't get the red bead bracelet, so I feel unhappy.
comfortable?"
"Isn't it just a string of beads? Even though I am humble, I don't care enough about these. Thanks to you this year, the prince has given me two boxes of jewelry. Which one is not better than this bracelet?
I just feel sorry for you, and the Queen is so narrow-minded."
Having said this, he suddenly remembered something and asked hurriedly: "By the way, I think the four treasures of the study that the eldest and fourth young masters got are all treasures. It's just Brother Chen. He is not the material for studying. I will give him a knife, a gun and a stick."
I am happy to see him rewarded with his pen, ink, paper and inkstone. But the third young master is different. He used to see good things at Aunt Feng's place. Now that he is living here with you, he doesn't have a share in the four treasures of the study. I don't know what he will do.
think."
"Look at you, you are no better than a child."
Xin Nian lowered his eyes and smiled and said: "Don't worry, when I came back from school last night, Brother Feng saw the gift given by the queen and shared it with Yaya, the sixth son, for a long time. I said what they got was simple and far inferior to
The eldest young master, the fourth young master and the fifth young master. Brother Feng also comforted me and said that it is better to rely on others than to rely on yourself. The reward from the palace is a lottery, big or small, just get it. If you really want good things, you have to earn them by yourself. I got up this morning
, I think he has already used those pen and ink."
"Brother Feng is indeed sensible."
Aunt Gu nodded. Seeing that Xin Nian didn't care about this, she felt a little calmer, so she smiled again and said, "I met grandma and Aunt Qiu in the garden yesterday. What do you think they said?"
"Oh? Listening to what you said, they probably chewed my tongue again, but they don't know what I did wrong. Now in grandma's eyes?"
Aunt Gu smiled and said: "I heard them saying that you are used to pleasing me. You just went to the second door before. Why did you bring the third girl with you? There are several moves in Changfeng Pavilion. What will people say if they see them?
?I thought our girls were uneducated."
Xin Nian sneered and said: "According to their upbringing, living people are raised to death. No matter what, the prince was there at the time anyway, and he didn't say anything."
"That's right, they are obviously jealous of you. Otherwise, why wouldn't they try to please the prince? Don't they want to? It's not like the prince is bored when he sees them."
Xin Nian thought that even the Liao family and others did not spread the gossip about Gu Yunxiang, which showed that the secret matchmaking was done secretly. Then she thought about it, wasn't it a secret? Only Gu Changting and herself, Aunt Qin and her daughter knew that these four people
