Lanyin City Ge Family
Under the highest building in Lanyin City, the girl was raising her head and shouting: "Hey, are you going?"
The girl has red lips and white teeth, a delicate and beautiful face, and a petite body like a well-made doll. It was late autumn, so she put on a thick white fur cloak, showing her distinguished life experience.
The man upstairs heard the girl shouting and suddenly remembered that he had made an appointment with her to enjoy the autumn maples in Maple Leaf Valley today, but he still shook his head and said to the girl below with apology: "Zhiyi, today I I have something on my mind, I’m afraid it won’t be pleasant if I go there, how about another time?”
This man was gentle and gentle, and even if he refused, he would advance and retreat in a measured manner. When the girl below heard what he said and knew his character, she stopped forcing him and turned around to leave: "What's the point of going alone if you don't go?"
"But." The girl turned back and showed a bright smile: "But you owe me a favor."
"Glen."
Watching the girl walk away, Ge Liancai shook his head. He has been here since the morning, standing on the highest building in Lanyin City, looking at the small hill to the east. Looking from Lanyin City, there is only one Tiny dot.
"I don't know if cousin Ge Zhu is okay." He said with some worry.
"It will definitely happen, but it won't be big." A tall, thin old man in white clothes behind him said.
Ge Lian opened his lips, paused, and finally asked: "Who is the person who met me this morning?"
"What identity?" the old man repeated, and then smiled bitterly: "Probably it is the identity that can make the Ge family disappear from this world with just one look down."
Ge Lian couldn't help but shuddered, and said in a deep voice: "Then let's just give up on Ge Sheng's family like this?"
"If they wanted your life in the first place." The old man looked at the sky and said bitterly: "We can't even say a word except giving it away."
Looking at Ge Lian's increasingly gray face, the area around his old face suddenly blossomed: "But that bitch An Ning is here."
The old man did not hesitate to call the woman who was Ge Sheng's mother a bitch.
"Bitch?" Ge Lian hesitated and repeated.
"Yes, bitch." The old man chuckled, with joy and irony in his smile.
"The entire Ge family, everyone who has seen her or knows her, will call her a bitch. After all, she has made the Ge family the biggest ugliness since the founding of the family. It is so ugly that half of the elders and stewards have no shame to mention this name in their lives. "
It was as if this name had become a taboo existence. Ge Lian himself had no memory at all. In his memory, Ge Sheng's mother seemed to be a non-existent person just like his father.
Even though Ge Lian already has a very ordinary and indifferent character, he couldn't help but say: "Can you tell me about it?"
"Tell me about it? Where to start?" The old man chuckled, and then glanced at the hill to the east: "Let's start from the day when Young Master Ge Qiu passed away."
…
…
Early spring, morning fog and dew.
On the eaves with the plaque reading "Ge Mansion", a delicate hand as white as morning mist pressed on the vermilion door, and the dew hanging on the bronze rivets moistened her fingers.
"clang……"
She pressed her fingers, and the fine sound waves were like a circle of colorless bats that were frightened and flew away in all directions. The bay-red horse behind her was frightened and could not help but raise its front hooves high. Just as it was about to neigh, it was stopped. She pulled the reins and pressed hard.
She stood in front of the bay-red horse and waited quietly, shrouded in light morning mist, listening to the restlessness and noise behind the red door.
Until the door opened, an old man with white hair and beard walked out tremblingly and looked at her: "An Ning, where is the young master?"
An Ning turned back and opened the curtain of the carriage pulled by the bay-red horse with her fingers. The old man only took one look and collapsed to the ground as if struck by lightning. His arms were trembling and he could no longer lift them up.
Behind the car curtain, a handsome man sat there quietly, as peacefully as if he was sleeping.
"I will send him back to his ancestral home to pay his respects."
An Ning said quietly.
…
…
After that morning, the entire Ge Mansion was covered with white banners and hanging curtains. The young clan member died outside. This was the second largest funeral after the death of the current clan leader. However, the men wearing white linen had a lot to see. When he looked at the girl kneeling in front of Ge Qiuling, her eyes were not sad but full of passion.
The Ge family has been a prominent family in Lanyin City for thousands of years, but in the past thousand years, there has never been a more dazzling existence than Ge Qiu. He entered Ye Ye College at the age of fourteen and returned from the Garden of Thousand Pagodas at the age of twenty-two. At that time, even the clan leader could not survive five moves under him.
All the elders of the Ge family regarded him as the hope for the rise of the Ge family, so they couldn't wait to announce him as the next patriarch of the Ge family, and planned to marry him a wife named Lan until he quietly left. An Ning was brought back from outside.
Seven elders threw the dishes and chopsticks at the dust-washing banquet. Ge Qiu's father threatened to sever the relationship between father and son and ordered him to give up this humble orphan. Although there is no law in the Lanye Empire that does not allow nobles and commoners to Marriage, but such an orphaned girl without a father or mother could not bring any honor or benefit to the Ge family, except endless shame.
Ge Qiu, who had always been gentle and gentle, showed rare stubbornness in this matter. In the end, the dinner ended on bad terms. Ge Qiu took An Ning and left Lanyin City overnight. From then on, he only returned to Ge's house to stay for a few days at the end of each year.
As time went by, those stubborn elders finally began to slowly try to accept this young lady. However, in this early spring, An Ning led a carriage alone through the early morning mist, carrying Ge Qiu's body.
There was also a third person who returned - An Ning already had Ge Qiu's posthumous son in her belly.
Even if what he did was not liked by the family, he was still a young member of the Ge family. In addition to power, he also held in his hands the huge amount of wealth accumulated by this prestigious family for thousands of years.
Ge Qiu died, and the custody of the wealth had no choice but to be left to his wife, An Ning, who still looked like a girl of seventeen or eighteen.
In the past days when she lived in the Ge family like a dragonfly, she always followed Ge Qiu silently. She was gentle and lovely, charming and bright. The Ge family only knew that she came from the imperial capital in the lake and was a fatherless woman. A motherless orphan, apart from that, has neither strength nor identity.
"Sure enough, the young master still likes little girls who love each other. They have a unique charm whether they are around him or in bed." So in private, many idle men of the Ge family who like to gossip would talk about An Ning like this with ambiguous smiles.
An Ningsheng is extremely beautiful, so in the eyes of many Ge family members, she is just a charming girl who captured their young master with her looks. Moreover, her appearance has not changed in the seven years since she married into the Ge family.
However, every time the men of the Ge family finish drinking, it is always An Ning who curses them - being able to have some intimate relationship verbally with the young master's wife will give them great psychological and physical benefits. of satisfaction.
However, that's all. Lanyin City is destined to not be able to accommodate Ge Qiu, and his wife is not something ordinary members of the Ge family can get involved with.
However, Ge Qiu died.
A dead heir ceases to be an heir.
An Ning, who has no father or mother, can only live in the Ge family temporarily as a widow.
Therefore, during the first seven days of Ge Qiu, An Ning, dressed in plain clothes, walked on the bluestone path of the Ge family. There were countless green eyes staring at her along the way, wishing they could see through the smooth satin under her mourning clothes. skin.
When you are young and widowed, you are bound to remarry.
Since you want to remarry, then naturally the wealth will not flow to outsiders.
An Ning is the only heir to Ge Qiu's inheritance. If he can marry her, he will be able to inherit a large amount of wealth that makes people laugh from their dreams.
And she also has Ge Qiu's child in her belly, a future head of the Ge family. The current head is old, and the younger head is too young to be in charge. The person who becomes his stepfather will undoubtedly become the acting head of the Ge family. .
Even if we only consider the above two points, even if An Ning is a sow, hundreds of Ge family members will happily drive the sow into the house and rush to get married with the sow.
What's more, An Ning turned out to be a girl with unparalleled beauty and fair skin. Countless Ge family members had admired the young mistress of the Ge family.
If this young lady has a natal family with a terrible family background - for example, this young lady's surname is Lan, then even if they have ten thousand courages, they would not dare to make a mistake.
But this young mistress was just a foxy orphan girl that Ge Qiu met outside. She was pregnant and living in a helpless and strange wealthy family. At most, she could only choose the most pleasing son of the Ge family to marry.
Therefore, almost the entire Ge family harbored such naked malice and watched to see who this young lady would end up with. On the first day after Ge Qiu's body was transported to the Ge family, there were more than ten generous betrothal gift lists. Arriving in front of this newly widowed young lady.
Faced with such a blatant humiliation, An Ning could only choose to move into Ge Qiu's mourning hall to prevent anyone from taking the risk and trying to break into her room late at night.
Until the end, An Ning finally announced publicly that she decided to accept the engagement of one of them, and the specific one will be told to them at the end of the first seven.
Therefore, at that time, all the Ge family members who had thoughts about her were invited to Ge Qiu's mourning hall. Everyone would have a chance to win her favor.
After the news broke, some old people sighed, but more young people were ecstatic - apart from surrendering, this girl has no place in the world.
So they were particularly respectful to Ge Qiu's spiritual place of worship in those days.
I will take care of your wife.
At this time, they were all grateful for the mysterious death of their young patriarch.
