Perhaps the Lord of Heaven was sympathizing with Xie Changbai for the cruelty of the world, the indifference of people, and the unsatisfactory love he encountered at the moment. After Hai Pingting said those words, a thunder suddenly sounded from the window, and the thunder The sound was deafening, and a bolt of lightning flashed out of the window, illuminating Xie Changbai's unbelievable expression at a glance. Sliding across the face, fleeting.

After the thunderstorm, it began to rain heavily outside the house. Willows swayed their soft willow silk in the wind and rain, and the misty smoke weaved into thousands of spring sorrows. The petals were also overwhelmed and fell like snowflakes.

"Sister Pingting, you really only had a brother-sister relationship with me, and no love between a man and a woman." Xie Changbai said without caring about the rain outside the window, looking straight at Hai Pingting with a pair of eyes.

"Naturally, Pingting, I have never had a real brother since I was a child. I have always envied my younger sister to have a brother like Cousin Changgu. I hope that I can have a real brother myself. Getting to know you Changbai brother here is like having a real brother.

Unexpectedly, so many things have been caused for no reason. Brother Changbai, you misunderstood me. In the future, brother Changbai should stop calling me sister Pingting, just call me sister Haijia. "Hai Pingting lowered her eyebrows, but she refused to look at Xie Changbai directly, and said these words in her mouth ruthlessly.

"That's right, Changbai, you are just a young man, and you don't know what a man and a woman are. Maybe, your love for Pingting is not necessarily a love between a man and a woman. Just like Pingting, it is a brother-sister relationship." Hai Shi opened his mouth at the right time to help Hai Pingting get rid of the relationship with Xie Changbai.

Gu Ruosu frowned when she heard the aunt and nephew sang and turned the relationship between men and women into so-called brother and sister, and was about to speak for Xie Changbai, but Hai Shi directly used the following words Gu Ruosu couldn't say anything.

"Maybe you don't know, mother. A few days ago, my niece's father, who is also my eldest brother, sent a letter, saying that he and my father had already arranged a good marriage for Pingting in their hometown. The other party is the direct grandson of Old Master Zhang Xuanhou of Chengxuan, with a wealthy family and a good-looking talent, and he was admitted as a scholar at a young age. It can be said that he has a bright future, and now we just wait for the two families to settle and discuss this matter."

"Chengxuanhou's family is distinguished, and his family education is extremely strict. He also took a fancy to our family, Pingting, who came from a famous family and has a good character.

So, the daughter-in-law specifically begged for a favor from her mother. The two children are just young Muai, ignorant and confused. She also asked her to help suppress this matter. When my niece gets married later, I will use your mother's favor. Putting a dowry on behalf of my niece is giving my niece some face. "

When Gu Ruosu heard this, what she wanted to say for Xie Changbai was suddenly stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say it. If Hai Pingting hadn't agreed with him, then she would open her mouth and say that the two children are Being affectionate, that's harmless, maybe it's still a beautiful talk of a young Mu Ai, but at this moment, Hai Pingting has promised her, and she is still a wealthy family, if she speaks again, she will deliberately destroy the integrity of the girl's family. reputation, ruined her good marriage, and forcibly stood up for Xie Changbai, which meant that the big bullied the small and the strong bullied the weak.

Thinking of this, Gu Ruosu was reluctant to open his mouth, so he could only cast his eyes on Xie Changbai who looked mournful.

"Yes...Since...the sister of the Hai family has said so, then I can't force anything more. It's all my wishful thinking. I thought I had a discussion with you, sister...I already have affection, so I'm bothering you My sister is gone, and my reputation has been hurt." Xie Changbai suddenly said with a relaxed look, his eyes red.

"I'm bothering grandma too. I worked hard for my unworthy grandson. It's Changbai's fault." Xie Changbai turned around again and said to Gu Ruosu like this.

"When the younger sister of the Hai family gets married, our Xie family will definitely prepare a generous gift for her to show our disrespect today."

After speaking, Xie Changbai bowed deeply to Hai Pingting to express his apology.

Hai Pingting accepted the gift as usual, but the maid beside her saw that Hai Pingting's hands under the sleeves had already scratched herself with long nails, red and purple. The strange thing is creepy and sad.

As a slave, she actually loves her young lady very much. She is in a bad situation. Apart from the false name of the eldest daughter, she has nothing to ask for. Dare to let go of your hands to fight for yourself, but you have to be separated from the predestined people, it is really pitiful.

Everyone present, except for Hai Pingting and the maid, no one knew a thing or two about the pain in Hai Pingting's heart at this moment, only knew that Hai Pingting was ruthless at the moment.

Even Gu Ruosu, who claims to have a sharp eye, is the same. She thinks that Hai Pingting may have feelings for Xie Changbai, but the so-called love is still not as good as those actual benefits, but this is also human nature, and she does not want to criticize her What, I just feel sorry for Xie Changbai who is full of affection, if not, why didn't he make it clear to Xie Changbai, a simple child?He gave him hope for no reason, but found a good husband's family in private, and urged Xie Changbai to come to her to make decisions for them...

"Well, then according to what Changbai said, this matter is our Xie family's fault, and it's also my fault. Boss, daughter-in-law, when your niece gets married, let me know, your father-in-law and I will be fine. Add a generous gift." After all, Gu Ruosu still couldn't bear to tear the faces of the two families apart, so he held back his temper and continued following Xie Changbai's words.

Hai Shi also knew that his mother-in-law must be angry this time, and it is not appropriate for him to bring people here to seek bad luck, so he hurriedly said:
"What the mother says is what the daughter-in-law dares to obey.

This incident really bothered my mother, my mother was not feeling well today, so my daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law, the niece, couldn't bother me any more. In the future, when my mother got better, my daughter-in-law would bring a few children to her mother to perform her filial piety. "

"Okay, you two, aunt and nephew, go back. It's okay, so don't come." Gu Ruosu couldn't help but said a little angry.

At this moment, Haishi didn't care that Gu Ruosu's words slapped her in the face, and hurriedly took Hai Pingting out of the room, walking very fast as if there was wind under her feet.

Gu Ruosu didn't want to see the leaving figures of the pair of aunts and nephews, but Xie Changbai stood beside Gu Ruosu, his eyes filled with tears at the moment when Hai Shi and Hai Pingting turned to leave, He also reluctantly watched the backs of the group of them waiting to leave.

"Changbai...sit down..." Gu Ruosu looked at Xie Changbai who seemed to be tottering and lifeless at the moment, pursed his lips, pulled Xie Changbai's sleeve, and said in a soft voice, very concerned.

And Zang Lan and the others were also very discerning, and left the house, and when they retreated, they closed the door, leaving only the grandparent and grandson in the house.

"Grandmother... I... really like Pingting... Sister Haijia..." After everyone left, Xie Changbai seemed to have been sucked out of the last trace of his spirit, unable to hold on any longer, straight Kneeling at Gu Ruosu's feet, sobbing softly.

"Changbai...Grandma understands you...Grandmother knows you are a good boy...but there are things...maybe it's really not enough to be affectionate..."

"Perhaps, your little sister from the Hai family... really has feelings for you...but she...can't afford to bet..."

"Grandmother, could it be that children born to concubines are really always a head shorter than others...Really, don't they even have the right to pursue the one they love..." Xie Changbai's eyes were red, tears were hanging on his face, He raised his head, looked at Gu Ruosu and said.

"Nonsense! How could it be! In this world, there is no right to be worthy or not. Identity is just your starting point. How can it be your end point? As long as you work hard, there is nothing that cannot be changed in this world.

From my point of view, you and that girl from the Hai family are just not destined to be together. It’s okay to say otherwise. Since you are not destined to be married, it’s okay to break up...

A good man should aim everywhere. Look at your grandfather, he was not even as good as you. Although you are a child of a concubine, you are still a child of the Duke's family. But what about your grandfather?It’s not bad to be a concubine, but he’s just a white man, he’s in his thirties, and he hasn’t got a foothold yet... Those days... It’s been hard... It’s not even as good as a concubine from a slightly richer family..."

"But now...Look at the scenery of our Xie family, who would have thought that your grandfather would still have a good life today?" Gu Ruosu immediately brought up the matter of Xie Ruqing's fortune to comfort and teach Xie Changbai.

"But my grandfather is very talented, his resourcefulness is unparalleled in the world, but I... how can I have one tenth of my grandfather's..." Xie Changbai couldn't help but feel inferior.

"You child! Why are you so lacking in ambition! Could it be that your grandfather was born able to read and write, and knew astronomy and geography at the top! Didn't you learn it step by step! What's more, where did your grandfather go?" There are so many ready-made educational resources, Mr. Teacher... you have to find them by yourself, how can you be like you? Now that you have so many good environments, are you afraid that you will learn nothing?! If you are really like this If you think about it... then you really have no ambition."

"If you ask me, you deserve to be dumped by this little girl. Who would like a young man with no ambition... Besides! There are so many good girls in the world! Are you afraid that you won't find someone who truly connects with you?!

If you only want this girl, you don't want anything, even your own ambition, and deny yourself with me every day!Then you simply don't want to be a descendant of our Xie family, don't live! "

"Grandmother, I have ambitions... Our Xie family's children... all have their own ambitions... I believe in myself... I believe that nothing is predetermined... I believe that in the future, relying on me I must gain the respect of others, my status as a concubine... sooner or later... I will try my best to make others not care..." Xie Changbai said as if suddenly woken up.

"Well... these words seem to be something that my descendants of the Xie family can say. If you are as inferior as your grandmother said, and you don't have confidence in yourself, it will be a waste of time. Your grandmother and I are in your You have put so much thought into your body." Xie Ruqing's voice suddenly sounded from outside the door, and immediately, Xie Ruqing, who was soaking wet all over, pushed the door open and entered under the watchful eyes of Gu Ruosu and Xie Changbai.

"When were you outside the door!"

"grandfather!"

"How did you become like this? Like... a drowned chicken... Besides, why are your hands still red..." Gu Ruosu looked at Xie Ruqing's wet body, and she didn't look like she was holding an umbrella, and her right hand was still wet. Knowing why she was blushing, she didn't know why she felt distressed, so she spoke immediately, with a little blame.

But Xie Ruqing rarely explained why to Gu Ruosu, he didn't want Gu Ruosu to know, once he heard his subordinates come to report what happened in the Hefengtang, he was afraid that Gu Ruosu would get angry because of it, and then he was careless He knocked over the candle and burned his hand, so he didn't have time to deal with it, so he ignored the pouring rain and rushed this way from his study, which caused Gu Ruosu to worry for no reason.

But fortunately, his worries were unnecessary.His wife is a heroine.

To be more precise, in the words of his wife, it means that she is sober in the world, not only does she not get angry, but she can also comfort Xie Changbai who has lost love. She is really an outstanding lady~

"I'm fine. You don't have to worry about it. It's you, it's fine."

"What can I do... It's not me who is broken in love." Gu Ruosu looked at the overly worried Xie Ruqing with a puzzled expression, and said in bewilderment.

"Well, you are right...but don't worry, I will never let you down in my life." Xie Ruqing said formally.

Xie Changbai: [Being broken in love, I was forced to eat dog food...]
Perhaps Xie Changbai's experience was too miserable, and his eyes were too resentful, Xie Ruqing only had a few words with Gu Ruosu, and then put his mind on Xie Changbai.

"You child, everything is good, but you are too weak, you need to sharpen, and you don't need to pay too much attention to the matter of men and women. This time, let's take it as a lesson... You don't have to blame the girl, she has Wrong, so are you."

"She may not be affectionate enough for you, not that affectionate, but a man who has no future himself, how can he give his beloved a home, so that she can cling to you with peace of mind like Si Luo."

"Not everyone in this world has the courage of your grandmother."

"Yes……"

Xie Ruqing looked at Xie Changbai's decadent look at this moment, frowned, then said:
"Didn't you still blame the unfairness of fate for making you a concubine just now, and you still want to win your own breath.

As your grandfather, I don't mind giving you a chance.

But you have to think about it, if you are willing to work hard for your future, and follow me to the study, but this road is very bitter, very hard, and very human can bear it. "

Seeing that Xie Changbai did not respond, Xie Ruqing said again:

"If you don't want to, don't force it. I will find a good place for you because you are a descendant of my Xie family. Your paintings and calligraphy are amazing. I can find a job as a court painter for you in the palace, or Just donate a loose official, give some money, and then choose a good marriage for you, and you can live this life in peace and stability, and you can be considered to have made it through."

"How to choose, you decide at the moment."

Xie Ruqing straightforwardly gave Xie Changbai two choices, without too much consolation or sensationalism, some only had two choices of "inappropriate".

And although Xie Changbai was surprised by the development of the matter at this moment, he also understood that his grandfather never joked, so he thought for a long time and said:

"Grandfather, I'll follow you to the study."
