When Mrs. Chen heard Chen Linger's shameless words, her originally expressionless face finally became angry. She took a few deep breaths, tried to calm herself down, and looked in front of her. Stubborn daughter, trying to figure out why,

"Tell me, when did he hook up with you, and when did you have such thoughts?"

Dear, we should get married in the first place, isn't it good for me to marry now?"

Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter in front of her, and only felt a pain in her forehead. She rubbed her forehead and tried to reason with her, "Let's not talk about his poverty, just say that he is now We're already married. Could it be that you, the eldest lady of my Chen family, will marry him as a concubine, and will you be able to sit next to that bastard?"

Chen Linger heard her mother say this, as if she was stimulated, and retorted excitedly: "He is rich, the restaurant he runs now can make money, wait for his father to destroy his restaurant , let him hand over the formula in it. I will let him give up that useless waste and marry me, and he will definitely obey me and obey me!"

Mrs. Chen, who was originally angry, was stunned for a moment when she heard Chen Linger's words, and then she showed a surprised look, looking at the daughter who knew she had lost her words and kept silent. , asked suspiciously: "restaurant, what restaurant? And what happened to your father?"

Chen Linger yelled out her inner thoughts when she was so angry just now, but when she came back to her senses, she knew that she had said something wrong. Her mother didn't know it. It's all right now, she said it all. At this time, when she heard her mother's pressing question, she didn't know how to answer, so she looked at her innocently, trying to pretend that she didn't know anything.

Mrs. Chen doesn't like her, she knows best what her daughter is like, and now she is posing like this, she must have done something wrong, so she dare not say it , and also want to muddle through.

Mrs. Chen narrowed her eyes slightly, watching her voice colden, "I am your mother, I will not harm you. I will give you a quarter of an hour to think clearly, what the **** are you? Do you want to tell me. If you don't tell me, then if you get into any more trouble in the future, don't come to me as a mother. "

"Mother, don't say that." When Chen Linger was threatened by her like this, she immediately panicked, and hurriedly told her father, the news she heard that day, and the follow-up to the maid beside her. The matter of going to investigate, one hundred and fifty-one said.

"According to what you said, that sick seedling still has some skills." Mrs. Chen sat on the chair, tapped the table with her fingertips, and issued a crisp 'da da' Da' sound.

Chen Linger wanted to refute Mrs. Chen, then Gu Lang was not a sick child, but she just met her mother's stern eyes, but she still didn't dare to say it, so she could only whisper: "Of course, Otherwise, mother, do you think that **** can have such skills? Gu Lang must have been in poor health before, so he couldn't make those things to make a living. But now the Chen family didn't send a person there, and even took his Gu Lang gave him the contract of selling his life, and he naturally felt a little less scruples, so he dared to take out those prescriptions."

Mrs. Chen nodded while listening to Chen Linger's analysis, and felt that what she said made some sense. Although her daughter is easily impulsive, she sometimes has to say that her brain is flexible enough to be able to think of these things. Not bad either.

"I see."

Now that she knew the whole story, Mrs. Chen didn't intend to waste any more time here. He stood up and prepared to leave here and go back to his yard. Just after going out, she looked back at Chen Linger, who was still staring at her eagerly, and said lightly, "Since you don't like the clothes, you don't need to wear them this time. In a few days, mother will make new ones for you. "

Chen Linger didn't react at first, what did she mean when she realized it was because her mother no longer forced her to see Mrs. Zhao, she immediately widened her eyes and moved towards Mrs. Chen with joy Madly said: "Yes, mother, I know, then I want to marry Gu Lang?"

"I'll have to go back and think about it." Most importantly, she'll have to find out if what her daughter is saying is true.

Mrs. Chen looked at her daughter's happy appearance, frowned slightly, and finally left without saying anything. Her daughter, after all, is still a little less calm.

While waiting for the housekeeper to come over, Mrs. Chen re-combed what Chen Linger told her just now, looked at her new petal nails, and murmured: "I'm a little curious, how big is it? The temptation to make your father and daughter miss you so much."

As soon as Mrs. Chen's voice fell, a little girl's voice came from outside the door, and then a man in his thirties walked in slowly and walked towards Mrs. Chen After a ceremony, he stood by and waited for orders.

Mrs. Chen looked at the man in front of her, and waved her hand to let all those who were waiting on the left and right go down, leaving only two of her confidants, raised her head and stared at the housekeeper: "Butler Wu, you Do you know why I invited you here this time?"

Butler Zhou was very respectful to Mrs. Chen. He shook his head when he heard her question, and said bluntly, "I don't know."

Mrs. Chen smiled lightly, this smile added a bit of charm to her youthful face that was at most beautiful, she only heard her inexplicably say: "Since Butler Wu doesn't know, so I'll tell you. I heard that you're helping the master investigate something recently."

Butler Wu was still muttering in his heart just now, wondering if the servant in the inner court was aware of the crime by the madam, and the madam wanted him to deal with it. Who would have thought that this lady would ask such a question if she didn't ask, and she would break down in a cold sweat.

Mrs. Chen looked at Butler Wu with her eyes wandering, she was not in a hurry, she played with the teacup on the table leisurely, and said lightly: "Butler Wu, you have to think about it, do you want it? Tell me the truth. I can give you what the lord can give you. I can give you what the lord can't give you. You also have to remember how the last butler left. Follow the Lord's orders."

Hearing Mrs. Chen's words, Butler Wu felt a little nervous, and finally opened his mouth after weighing it for a long time, "Master asked me to investigate the Chen family restaurant, and he also asked me to send someone to watch Their earnings, and finally tell him the news together."

Mrs. Chen narrowed her eyes slightly, and immediately sat up straight. Of course, she knew about the Chen family restaurant. Now, there is probably no one in this city who doesn't know that restaurant, but she knows it and knows it, but she has never been there. It was only today that Chen Linger made such a mistake that she realized that the famous small restaurant was actually opened by the poor family and the concubine she had always looked down on.

Mrs. Chen stared straight at Butler Wu, and said in a stern tone: "Tell me all the things you have found, if there is any concealment, you will know the consequences. ."

Butler Wu naturally knew, otherwise he wouldn't have spoken when Madam Chen asked him just now, and when he heard what Madam Chen said, he simply did not stop and kept everything he found. He said it, and also said the quotation that the master asked him to check.

Small restaurants are also a matter of course.

Mrs. Chen looked at the housekeeper Wu who had finished speaking below, looked at her anxiously, waved her hand and said directly: "I called you here today just to ask about some of the family's expenses, and the rest Nothing was asked."

"Yes, yes, the little one knows, the little one will definitely not say anything."

, it must be the recipes of those foods. If those things can be used by their Chen family and let them expand their manpower, the benefits they can obtain will be even greater. At this moment, Madam Chen's thoughts coincided with Master Chen's thoughts.

Thinking of how Gu Lang was neither humble nor arrogant when he came back here and only asked for the return of the dowry, Mrs. Chen sneered and murmured: "I underestimated you, if I had known that you had such skills It's not impossible for our Chen family to marry our daughter to you, so why let that wild species take advantage."

Mrs. Chen looked at the ups and downs of tea stems in the teacup, thinking of her persistent daughter, she suddenly felt that her daughter who played cards out of common sense was not too useless, she smiled softly He got up, "However, it doesn't seem too late now. There are some mistakes, just correct them in time."

On the counter of the small restaurant.

Chen Xing bought the rabbit with the old grandfather, and after dealing with the rabbit, he couldn't find anything to do anymore, so he could only lie there bored and wait for Gu Lang to come back, just collect it money.

Just as Chen Xing held his chin in his hands and looked at the pedestrians walking on the street, he wondered how many times he was thinking about what Gu Lang was going to do and when he would come back, his His eyes suddenly lit up, and then he stood up with his hands on the counter.

Chen Xing saw Gu Lang coming back, only to see Gu Lang wearing the long white coat he usually wears, his jet-black hair was tied with a simple hairpin on the top of his head, obviously it was No matter how simple the dress is, but because of his outstanding temperament, he is particularly conspicuous in the crowd.

When Chen Xing was unconsciously happy because of Gu Lang's arrival, Gu Lang, who was slowly walking towards him, seemed to sense him, and raised his eyes in his direction. Looking over, he immediately laughed when he saw Chen Xing staring at him with bright eyes, as if staring at a little milk dog with flesh and bones.

Gu Lang was not too far from the store. In less than a stick of incense, he had already entered the store and came to Chen Xing's side.

Chen Xing waited for Gu Lang to approach before realizing that Gu Lang was carrying a bamboo building on his back, and there seemed to be something inside. He was a little curious, and he wanted to ask Gu Lang where he went all day, and what was in this basket. But looking at Gu Lang who was putting things down, he was too embarrassed to ask. He was afraid that if he asked, Gu Lang would feel that he was taking care of too much.

But Gu Lang seemed to understand his thoughts, looked at him and asked directly, "What's the matter, do you have something to ask me?"

Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang, nodded awkwardly, and then asked his own question in embarrassment. He added to himself: "If you don't want to say it, you don't have to answer me, I don't have to know."

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who was trying his best to defend himself, raised his hand and touched his head gently, and said warmly: "What do you want to know, just ask me directly, I will I told you. To me, there's nothing you can't ask."

Chen Xing pursed her lips, not knowing why she was a little shy. After waiting for a whole morning, my restless heart was calmed down all of a sudden.

Gu Lang put down the hand that was stroking Chen Xing, opened the cover of the thing he carried back, let Chen Xing see your things clearly, and explained slowly: "This morning the bookstore's The shopkeeper asked me to help with urgent matters, so I left in a hurry, these are the thank you gifts from the boss."

Chen Xing looked at the pen, ink, paper and inkstone placed there. Although he could not see the material, he could feel that they were all good things. So he nodded and said happily for Gu Lang: "Then you have to keep it well, and you don't have to buy it yourself when you need it in the future."

"En." Gu Lang laughed as he looked at Chen Xing who stopped asking questions after saying this.

"By the way, I bought a rabbit with an old man who came to the city today. The rabbit's fur is so thick, I asked Qiu Jiu to help me get the rabbit skin off and send it to the tailor shop Go inside and ask them to make a hand guard for you after they are done, so that you will have warm hands in winter. Your hands are cold at night in summer, and it will definitely be more unbearable in winter. We should make preparations early. Okay. I made an agreement with that hunter, and let him bring any prey he has to show me first, and then we will see if there are suitable skins and see if we can do something. "

Gu Lang listened to the chatter of the brother in front of him, listened to him earnestly planning their future, without the slightest impatience on his face, and even had a bit of a hint from the beginning to the end Doting smile. He didn't tell him that in the uninhabited courtyards of Gu's house, a large number of rare items were piled up, among which there were several boxes of winter clothes made of cherished silver fox fur.

Gu Lang just gave Chen Xing a gentle smile when Chen Xing finished saying this and asked his opinion, and replied in a low voice, "Okay."

: "Well, am I talking too much?"

Gu Lang shook his head, stared into his eyes and said very seriously: "No, I'm very happy that you can bother me like this." Too much weight, he continued: "Since my parents passed away, no one has thought of me like this."
