Chapter 67 Gifts and Thanks
This time, Mrs. Mo came to the Gu family, but she was relatively low-key. She only brought two maids all the way, and did not mobilize too much.
Mrs. Gu and Mrs. Shen enthusiastically and flatteredly invited Mrs. Mo, who was wearing plain cheongsam, into the Western-style living room of the Gu family. Mrs. Mo sat upright on the sofa, and did not touch the coffee sent by the servant. Her face was light, and she could not tell the joy, anger, sorrow and happiness. The two servants were holding gift boxes in their hands.
Shen and Gu Xinru sat next to her, looking very expectant. Especially Gu Xinru, who kept looking at the gift box in the servant's hand, felt that it must have been given to her. After all, she was about to marry into the Mo family in more than half a month. These days, the Mo family has sent her a lot of things.
"Mrs. Mo, is there anything to discuss when I come here this time?" Shen Shi was as if her face had changed with a smile.
Mrs. Gu was sitting in a single seat on the sofa. Although she didn't speak, she still looked at Mrs. Mo with a smile, waiting for Mrs. Mo to speak.
Finally, Gu Xinling and Gu Xinrui stood behind the old lady, Gu Shaoyang was pressed into the house to do his homework, while Gu Shaojun did not plan to leave the room to join in the fun.
Even so, the living room was filled with people, and the maids and servants were serving. After all, Mrs. Mo's arrival was a very important thing for the Gu family.
Mrs. Mo glanced at Gu Xinling with a faint expression, and then said, "Actually, I came to your mansion today to thank you."
"Thank you?" Shen was suspicious and looked at Old Lady Gu, but she was a little confused.
Gu Xinling immediately guessed that today was the third day after the operation for Mrs. Lin. I guess Ye Luochen had already gone to the Mo family in person and removed the gauze on Mrs. Lin's eyes. The so-called thank you should be for her.
However, Gu Xinling did not speak, but waited for Mrs. Mo to continue speaking.
"Mrs. Mo, forgive me for being ignorant, but I don't know what this 'thank you're like?" Mrs. Gu took the initiative to ask, her eyes full of curiosity.
Mrs. Mo looked at Gu Xinling and said, "Three days ago, the eldest lady of the noble family, Gu Xinling, helped her mother undergo an eye surgery. Today, her mother has returned to her knowledge, so I would like to thank her for her."
As soon as Mrs. Mo said this, except for Gu Xinling, the masters and servants of the Gu family in the living room were stunned. They did know that Gu Xinling had some medical skills, but they did not expect that Gu Xinling's medical skills were so great.
"My mother was blind many years ago and visited famous doctors. Both the old Chinese doctors and foreign doctors were helpless. Unexpectedly, the young lady of the family had excellent medical skills and was indeed impressive. I am also very grateful!" Mrs. Mo's tone was relaxed and her face was still calm. She should have apologized for her behavior that day, but she couldn't let go and could only come to Gu's house in person in the form of thanks.
However, although Gu Xinling cured Mrs. Lin's eye disease, she was indeed grateful, but she still did not want Gu Xinling to be with her son. Therefore, she could do her best to behave with her, but she did not have any intimacy with Gu Xinling.
"You two bring the gifts!" Mrs. Mo said to the two servants behind her.
"Miss Gu, this is a thank you gift for you. A set of dresses and matching jewelry, shoes and handbags I sent to a foreign company this morning to buy. Tomorrow is a banquet for the Mo family. I hope you can wear this outfit." Mrs. Mo said politely, but her tone was very distant.
Mrs. Mo personally went to the house to give gifts, but Gu Xinling had no reason to refuse. If she said she didn't want these things at this time, she was slapping Mrs. Mo in the face. She did not refuse. She just said in a calm tone like Mrs. Mo: "Xinling thanks Mrs. Mo."
Instead of taking the gift by himself, Gu Xinling called out softly, "Biyun!"
Biyun hurried over and took all the gift boxes from the two maids of the Mo family. Since Mrs. Mo was just giving thanks like a routine, she didn't need to be overly enthusiastic, and just kept her basic etiquette.
Mrs. Mo looked at Gu Xinling and thought to herself that this was a person who would not suffer any loss. If it were Gu Xinru, she would have received the gift in person with a happy face, so she had previously judged that the Gu family was very scheming, but she was not wrong.
At this time, Gu Xinru had lost interest in gifts because she knew that the gift would not belong to her. She secretly hated her, and this time she was stolen by Gu Xinling again.
Gu Xinrui bit her lower lip, she hated her even more than Gu Xinru! At this moment, Gu Xinrui saw Gu Xinru's dissatisfied expression, and she felt that she could use her second sister.
Gu Xinling didn't say much, and Shen had lost interest in speaking. After all, Mrs. Mo did not come for her baby Xinru. However, Mrs. Gu kept greetings with Mrs. Mo and was kind.
Gu Xinling just listened lightly, without any intention of interrupting. She neither wanted to please nor be rude. She is such a person. I will treat you like a mirror, as if you were a mirror.
At this moment, there was a noise outside, and then Mo Anlin broke in, his face full of anxiety and anxiety, "Mom, what are you doing? I have explained it to you..."
"Stop!" Mrs. Mo scolded her son directly.
Mo Anlin made a few big strides and came to Gu Xinling's side again, "Xinling, what about my mother doing to you, right?"
"Mrs. Mo is here to thank me and even gave me a gift." Gu Xinling said leisurely, "Mo Anlin, you have to worry too much!"
"Ah? Gift? Thank you?" Mo Anlin's face seemed to have a big exclamation mark. He looked at Gu Xinling, then looked back at his mother, "Really?"
"Lin'er, don't mess around!" Mrs. Mo frowned, "Do you think your mother is coming to tie up the eldest lady of the Gu family?"
"Isn't that true!" Mo Anlin muttered in a low voice.
Mo Anlin was originally summoned by his father to the military headquarters for a meeting in the past two days to discuss the further overall deployment of the Mo family army and the temporary truce to appease the casualties during the casualties. He even discussed the matter of changing the Prime Minister. After all, the Mo family army is powerful, and whether it is the president or the prime minister, it is almost something that the Mo family can change as soon as they want. If the supreme ruler of the country is just a puppet supported by the Mo family.
The current president and the Prime Minister are not so obedient, especially since Mo Anlin had been given medicine at Premier Xu's house before, and Mo Anlin even planned to replace this guy.
So, when Mo Anlin hurried home today, he heard the servant report that Mrs. Mo had gone to Gu's house. He immediately followed the fire and rushed over all the way, fearing that his mother would make things difficult for Gu Xinling.
"Mom, you come and thank you and give Xinling a gift. This is a good thing! Why don't you call me together?" Mo Anlin changed his smile and sat next to Mrs. Mo, "You like Xinling very much now, right?"
"It was your grandmother who liked it very much and insisted on me coming over to thank her. If it weren't for me stopping her, she would have come by herself. She also said she wanted to see... look at the eldest lady of the Gu family. So I specially bought clothes and jewelry for Miss Gu to let her wear it tomorrow so that your grandmother would feel disappointed when she saw her!" Before blurting out, Mrs. Mo changed the 'granddaughter-in-law' that Mrs. Lin said to be Miss Gu.
"Can grandma see it? It's been three days?" Mo Anlin patted his head, "I don't know!" But Mo Anlin was so nervous that he couldn't hear the sarcasm in Mrs. Mo's words.
Gu Xinling did not fight back. She felt that she should give Mo Anlin a face, and even more so that Mo Chengde, who had been very kind to her before, should give her face.
Mo Anlin seemed very excited. He jumped around and jumped over the coffee table and pulled Gu Xinling's arm, "Xinling, go, come home with me to see my grandmother! She must want to see you!"
"Don't think of it being out of the way." Gu Xinling quickly pulled her arm out of Mo Anlin's hand and frowned.
Mrs. Mo only knew that her son was pursuing Gu Xinling now. She thought that Gu Xinling was interested in seducing her. Even though Mo Chengde went home and told her that Gu Xinling was a good girl, she still had ideas about Gu Xinling. But when she saw that Gu Xinling looked at Mo Anlin at this time, she was really puzzled.
However, Mrs. Mo still felt that Gu Xinling was too scheming and was playing tricks of trying to get. Perhaps this was her cleverness, which made her fascinated her such an excellent son.
"Xinling, don't you want it? Why?" Mo Anlin pulled Gu Xinling's arm again, "My grandma is talking about you every day! I've been busy these two days, and I miss you very much. I can invite you to dinner in the evening and then we go to the movies. How about it?"
"Master Mo, I'd better go to your mansion to visit tomorrow!" Gu Xinling spoke very politely, her voice was very stable, and her face was still light, "Tomorrow is Lingtang's birthday. I believe your mansion is busy today. It's really not appropriate to visit him."
Mo Anlin was about to say that this was nothing, but Mrs. Mo said, "Lin'er, go home with your mother! Miss Gu is right, there is still something wrong at home! Don't disturb the Gu family anymore, don't lose the Mo family's decency."
Mrs. Mo had actually managed tomorrow's birthday party long ago, but she really couldn't stand her son's flattery in front of Gu Xinling. In Mrs. Mo's eyes, his son should be held by a woman, and she was really unhappy when Gu Xinling didn't give her son face like this.
"Okay! Mother, I'll go home with you." Mo Anlin sighed.
Immediately, Mo Anlin said to Gu Xinling again: "Xinling, I will pick you up tomorrow."
"Lin'er, there are so many customers tomorrow, how can you have time to pick up people? You should stay at home to greet guests." Mrs. Mo felt uncomfortable, and she felt that her son was about to be snatched away. Although Mrs. Mo came from a scholarly family and had always been generous and steady in doing things, she got into the slightest point of her son chasing Gu Xinling and couldn't get out no matter how hard she was.
Gu Xinling could feel Mrs. Mo's attitude, and she didn't have to accept it. She simply said, "Young Master Mo is busy with noble people. I will go to your mansion tomorrow."
"How can that be done? I have to pick you up. Nothing is more important than picking you up." As soon as Mo Anlin said this, Mrs. Mo felt even more angry.
