The tyrant opposite the door

Chapter 464: Chapter 474

When the old concubine mentioned Xu, she didn't say she was the Gu family's wife, but she insisted on saying she was the Xu family's daughter. How could Yun Ran not know what her intention was?

With such confusing concepts, the old concubine is indeed a master at persuading people.

But Yunran was not that fool, how could he obediently follow her words, and directly broke her mind.

If it was in the past, Yun Ran still had leisure time to deal with the old concubine, not knowing how to put everyone's face on the ground, but now she has no such mood and interest.

The old concubine's expression froze slightly, she looked at Yunran fixedly, she didn't expect her to come back so rudely, and she immediately became angry.

"These words are a bit ungrateful. Could it be that since you entered Beijing, you have not received the favor of the Xu family in Fengche Hutong? Not to mention that Mr. Gu was taken care of by Mr. Xu when he was in the Imperial Academy..."

"I don't understand what you said." Yun Ran looked at the old concubine in astonishment, "I don't know where you got such a rumor, it's really surprising. My father's temperament dare not say that he is famous all over the world. But all the students and courtiers in the capital know a thing or two about his temperament. Whether he is an official or a scholar, in fact, he is a person who is cheap to eat? I dare not say anything else. If this is the case, I dare to pat my chest and guarantee it. , my father was an official, and he never got the slightest care from others."

Yun Ran has great confidence in her father, if you let him go through the back door to get promoted and get rich, it would be better to kill him directly.

To put it nicely, it is called never bending down to serve the rich and powerful.

To put it bluntly, it is that the literati are really pure and noble.

The old concubine was blocked by Yunran again, her expression was already very embarrassing, but she didn't know what to say for a while.

Go out and open the door to ask, who is an official without the help and promotion of three or five relatives secretly, but Yun Ran speaks with confidence and without guilt, thinking of Gu Jun and his well-known arrogance, never thought that this person became an official Still so proud.

Yunran sneered inwardly, the old concubine's trick, which is common to all men in the world, just didn't work on Gu Junhe.

This is a person who was abandoned by the world, deviated from the normal track, and gave up his official career for the sake of his dead wife. If it were someone else, he would have been scolded for his blood.

But Gu Junhe did it back then, he was as free and easy as the wind and clouds, upright, and extremely free and easy, but was praised for his true temperament.

Even after more than ten years, he returned to the rivers and lakes for the future of his children, and he was praised and admired by many literati. It has to be said that few people can match this kind of luck.

However, it all depends on Gu Jun and his own charisma, as well as his never-faking demeanor, which makes people admirable from the bottom of his heart, not the duplicitous villain who greets the new at the front door and bids farewell to the old at the back door.

Therefore, Yun Ran is really not afraid of pulling Gu Junhe back in terms of character and career.

My father is a copper pea that can't be boiled, steamed, smashed, or fried, and it can't explode!

"Even so, if you insist that the Xu family has no favor with you, it would be too cold." The old concubine said.

Yunran looked at the old concubine with strange eyes, and suddenly the corners of her lips curved, and said: "I am the daughter of the Gu family. Although I lost my mother at a young age, I have no worries about food and clothing, and I have been educated in words and deeds. I have been loved by my father since I was a child, and my uncle took pity on me. I never ate a grain of rice or a sip of water from the Xu family before I grew up, and I have never had any contact with the Xu family in Jinling, so how can I say favors?"

Yunran mentioned the Xu family in Jinling, referring to the third house of the big house, but did not mention the second house of the Xu family in Jingdu, so it was naturally calculated separately.

The old concubine really did not expect that Yunran would really dare to tell her the matter so clearly.

Since ancient times, in-laws have frequent exchanges, and they communicate with each other according to the rituals of the New Year. How can it be unrelated?
However, what Yunran said never overlaps, but it cannot be said to be a lie.

After all, Yun Ran lost her mother since she was a child, and the Jinling Xu family is Xu's natal family. There is no second wife of the Gu family. There is really no intersection.

If he hadn't arrived in the capital, his relationship with the second wife of Xu's family would have been indifferent.

Now the old concubine is trying to use the guise of in-laws to tie Yunran and the Xu family tightly together, but it won't work.

At this point, Yunran was blocked, but the old princess couldn't say what she had to say.

I don't usually burn incense, but just hug Buddha's feet temporarily. How can there be such a good thing.

Seeing that the old concubine's complexion was not good, Yun Ran sighed softly, and said sadly, "I'm not afraid of the old concubine's jokes. Speaking of which, we are all in-laws, and I married into Luo Wang's mansion. Dong I was the last one to find out about the marriage between the Xu family and the Xu family, since they ignored me, I am also a person with face, old princess, don’t you think so?”

After speaking, Yunran stood up, smiled and said, "I won't disturb your purity, as I said before, you like Miss Hui very much, if you are bored, please invite her to chat with you. There is still a lot of things to do here, so I will go back first."

After Yun Ran finished speaking, she left with a smile.

The old concubine lost her temper for a moment, picked up the teacup at hand and threw it out, landed at Yunran's feet, and a field of broken porcelain flowers bloomed.

The house fell silent in an instant.

Yunran turned around slowly, still with a smile on his face, but his eyes were looking at the old princess without warmth, "I heard from the prince that the old princess had a younger sister who was both talented and beautiful. No chance to see."

When the old concubine heard this sentence suddenly, her whole body froze, she stared at Yun Ran stubbornly, her fingers holding the armrest of the chair were bruised and her knuckles were white.

"That's why the old concubine always tells me about my in-laws. I think it's because I miss my relatives. I heard that the old concubine has been chanting Buddhist scriptures for so many years. I think my family will be able to smile when they know it."

Yunran stood at the door, and a light spread from behind her.Standing against the light, her face was blurred and unrecognizable.

But the old concubine always felt that Yunran's eyes looked at her with unkindness.

Did she know something?
Otherwise, how could Dong Myiniang be mentioned for no reason?
Thoughts were messy and panicked, the old concubine no longer dared to act rashly.

Yunran turned around again, and slowly disappeared into the bright light, until her figure was no longer visible, and the old concubine realized that she was actually covered in cold sweat.

In the light rain and cold weather, she was actually sweating all over.

"Old princess, are you alright?" Nanny Luo said worriedly.

"...It's okay, you go down, I'll be quiet for a while." The old concubine waved her hand to make Nanny Luo back down, her face pale as paper.

Seeing that something was not quite right, Nanny Luo was a little puzzled, she went out and looked in the direction the princess had left, leaving only a blurred figure from her back.

Hugged and left.
