Gu Yan didn't understand the meaning of Gu Li's question, and just said to himself: "Actually, I was quite angry at first. I didn't expect Xiaorou to harm the second brother, but then I felt relieved. Xiaorou In fact, there is nothing wrong, she just loves herself more."
"Everyone has their own personality. If you are a good person, you cannot ask everyone to be like you and be a good person. In fact, most people will be like Xiaorou and be an ordinary person. You cannot say that she is guilty. . At least she asked the second brother to explain, and the second brother felt better, didn't he?" A big smile appeared on Gu Yan's face, as bright as the midsummer sun, "We have to look at the bright side of things!"
"But, what if the second brother really gets tricked? What will happen if the second brother eats her snacks and loses the game?" Gu Li wanted to ask Gu Yan like this, but she didn't speak, she held back. .
The children of the Gu family actually live very clearly. The legal sentencing in her world is different between attempted crimes and those that have caused harm. Gu Li then stopped talking. After all, Shen Rou has lived with her brothers for more than ten years. , it cannot be changed overnight.
"The third brother is right. The second brother and I made a bet about this. If I win, he will promise me something unconditionally." Gu Li smiled, got up and went back to the room.
Gu Yan looked at Gu Li's back and murmured: "What kind of bet is this? I will agree to all your requests."
Three days later, a carriage stopped at the door of the Gu family. The carriage was extremely ornately decorated, followed by two men wearing swords on horseback. A well-dressed maid got off the carriage and went to call the door.
Then, Shen Rou, wearing a snow-white curtain, got off the carriage gracefully and waited at the door of Gu's house.
Such a scene immediately attracted the folks in Qingniu Village. Everyone gathered in front of Gu's house, and there was some discussion.
Although Qingniu Village is close to Qianjing, few important people come here, and no girl from any family wears a curtain. Only the noble girls of Qianjing are so particular.
"Which family's daughter is this? Is it from the Gu family?"
"You don't know this, right? The daughter of the Gu family was originally the daughter of General Shen, but she was recognized as a daughter."
"Did you say it was Gu Rou? We haven't seen him for a long time. His demeanor seems like a different person."
"I was originally the eldest lady, but now I should say she is Shen Rou."
"Oh, the sparrow has really turned into a phoenix."
"What are you talking about? I am originally a phoenix. I never expected that Xiaorou would be so conscientious. She would fly on a branch and not forget her poor family. She is really kind."
"Xiaorou? Xiaorou, I am your Aunt Lizi! You used to like eating the chestnut cake made by Aunt Lizi the most!" A strong black woman in blue cloth greeted enthusiastically and took out a basket from her pocket. He walked forward with a few pieces of chestnut cake, handing them forward with one hand, and trying to hold Shen Rou's hand with the other.
Shen Rou looked at the pieces of chestnut cake in her big, dark, rough hands. She shrank her hands in disgust and took a step back. Aunt Lizi's hand stretched out in the air just froze there in embarrassment.
"Xiaorou is a rich girl in the city. She can't eat any delicacies from the mountains and seas. Aunt Lizi, who cares about a few pieces of chestnut cake from you?" A villager on the side laughed.
The expression on Aunt Lizi's face was stiff, a little embarrassed, and the original brightness in her eyes dimmed.
"The chestnut cake made by Aunt Lizi is unmatched by any snack shop in the capital." A crisp laughter came, and the black hand of Aunt Lizi was held by a soft and delicate hand. The cake was also taken over, and Gu Li's smiling face appeared in front of Aunt Lizi.
Behind her were Gu Lun and Gu Yan. Apparently, the two brothers also saw the scene just now. Gu Yan pretended not to notice, and Gu Lun just frowned.
When Aunt Lizi saw Gu Li's friendly smile, the stiff expression on her face softened a lot. She breathed a sigh of relief and forced all the chestnut cakes in her hand to Gu Li. Gu Li couldn't resist and quietly put the money in. into Aunt Lizi’s basket.
Gu Lun looked at Gu Li and Aunt Lizi with a smile. The smile on his face made Shen Rou feel a little uncomfortable. She pulled the corner of Gu Lun's clothes and said timidly: "Second brother, did I do something wrong?"
Gu Lun looked at Shen Rou and caught her uneasy gaze. He stretched out his hand to rub her head, but found that she was wearing a curtain and retracted her outstretched hand in mid-air.
"It doesn't matter, let's go, let's go to Sifang City together." Gu Lun's eyes were a little doting, and he led Shen Rou into the carriage first.
Seeing Shen Roulin's provocative gaze as she got into the car, Gu Li shrugged and waved goodbye to Gu Yan nonchalantly.
Gu Yan looked at Gu Li pitifully. He had a lot of resentment in his heart because he couldn't go to Sifang City because he had to participate in Master Lu's personal selection.
Gu Li waved to Gu Yan and said with a smile: "Third brother, come on, when you become Master Lu's direct disciple, I will give you a gift." After saying that, he waved his white fist at Gu Yan. .
"Of course, it's not a problem for me. I'm a genius! Just prepare gifts!" Gu Yan said, "I am the best in the world."
Gu Xiaomeng came to Gu Li and Gu Yan holding a chick in her arms. She looked like a little adult and gently patted her puffy chest: "Sister and second brother, go and help uncle with peace of mind. Third, Just let me take care of you, don’t worry."
Gu Li knelt down and patted Xiaomeng on the shoulder: "Well, I feel more relieved when Xiaomeng is at home."
Such a harmonious picture moved Shen Rou, so Shen Rou also knelt down and said, "Xiaomeng, come here, sister."
Unexpectedly, Xiaomeng took a step back slightly and said, "Sister Xiaorou, don't come over. Xiaomeng is dirty."
Shen Rou's eyes turned red all of a sudden, but she still suppressed her tears and said softly: "Why would sister dislike Xiaomeng for being dirty? Xiaomeng is not dirty at all, come to sister."
However, Xiaomeng hid behind Gu Li with a fearful look: "Sister Xiaorou, is she sick? Why did she cover herself with a cloth?"
Shen Rou had limited knowledge and could not tell the history of Muli, so she could only smile and said: "Sister is not sick, Xiaomeng is good. When sister comes back, bring delicious food to Xiaomeng."
Hearing that there was delicious food, Xiaomeng finally smiled: "Thank you, sister Xiaorou. Goodbye, sister Xiaorou."
Shen Rou's face suddenly turned dark. Behind the curtain, she glanced at Gu Li bitterly, stopped talking, and turned around to get on the carriage.
From Qingniu Village to Sifang City, it only takes half a day on horseback. The carriage is slower, but if you calculate, it will only take until the sun sets in the west at most.
Gu Li did not enter the car, but sat in front of the car with the driver. However, halfway through the car, Shen Rou suddenly stopped her: "Sister Li, I, I want to go to the convenience store. Can sister accompany me?" I go?"
She thought she was hiding it well, but she didn't expect that the spiteful light in her eyes had already betrayed her.
Gu Li smiled: "Okay."
