in the sound of swallows

Chapter 7 Newlyweds
Everyone is innocent, Shen Guiyan understands the reason why pregnant Bi is guilty, so she endured it all the time, and never showed any sharpness after the age of eight, nor did she compete with a few sisters and brothers for anything.

But who will tell her why she has endured to the point of not fighting back when she is beaten, but she is still robbed of her marriage that she had been looking forward to for eight years, her biological mother who loved her for many years was murdered, and there is not even a person who can make decisions for her? Can't find it?
Aunt Qin lay quietly, unable to answer her question.

The rain outside became heavier and heavier, and Shen Guiyan just stood by Aunt Qin's body for the whole night in a daze.Master Shen sent someone to take her back to the Swallow Tower to rest, Shen Guiyan shook her head: "Just treat Aunt Qin as my last ride."

Baoshan cried and whimpered behind her, but Shen Guiyan didn't cry any more, just looked at Aunt Qin's peaceful face, and was silently in a daze.

The Prime Minister's Mansion at the other end is naturally full of lights and festoons, so it's very lively. Prime Minister Gu is a minister of Wang Zuo of Fan Kingdom. He has been an official for 30 years, has always been honest and loyal to the emperor, and has been unanimously praised by the court.Therefore, today's eldest son is getting married, and many people come here.

Prime Minister Gu has three sons and one daughter, and the eldest son, Gu Chaodong, is naturally the most outstanding one. He is erudite, talented, humble and decent, and he is worthy of his father's true biography.Although the second son, Gu Chaonan, was not as good as the eldest son, he entered the Guozijian in just two decades.The third daughter, Gu Chaoxi, is still in the boudoir, but she is known as a talented woman.If Prime Minister Gu's family didn't have their fourth son, Gu Chaobei, they would be well-deservedly praised as "a tiger father has no dogs".

It's a pity that there is just one more Gu Chaobei.

Gu Chaobei is the fourth son of the prime minister's mansion. He heard that his biological mother had passed away early in the morning. He was extremely stubborn. He often hung out with some cronies in the fireworks and willow alley in the capital.He is already a 17-year-old boy, but he doesn't know the rules at all. He dares to contradict the prime minister, and he wants to beat and scold the servants. He is a son who gives the prime minister a headache.

When it comes to Mr. Gu's family, Gu Chaodong and Gu Chaonan will make people nod repeatedly, but when it comes to Gu Chaobei, even the aunt who sells vegetables on the street is unwilling to promise his daughter to him.

At this moment, the headache-inducing Fourth Young Master Gu was sitting on the wedding hall, crossing his legs, watching the bride outside being helped in.

"The eldest young master is so lucky. I heard that the young lady she married was hand-picked by the prime minister for many years. She is knowledgeable, sensible, gentle and virtuous. It is really a good match!"

"Isn't it? This talent must be matched with a woman's appearance. I'm lucky to meet the third lady of the Shen family. Being with Mr. Gu is naturally a match made in heaven."

It's really boring to talk about these scenes.Gu Chaobei yawned, looking at the bride who was walking cautiously, he didn't feel dignified.

After a series of etiquettes, the bride was supported to go into the wedding hall to salute, Gu Chaobei gave a "tsk", and on a whim, picked up a walnut and threw it at the bride's feet.

As soon as Shen Guiya stepped on the walnut, she was about to fall down.But she was so flexible, she stretched out her hands to support the ground, and squatted firmly on the ground.

Xi Niang next to her was startled, and hurriedly wanted to help her up again, but Shen Guiya got up and immediately tore off her hijab: "Who plotted against this girl?"

There was an uproar in the hall, and the sound of firecrackers outside seemed to be quieter.Prime Minister Gu and Mrs. Gu sat at the main seats, and the wedding hall was full of uncles and aunts of the Gu family, accompanied by several young masters and Miss Gu San.Before Shen Guiya entered the bridal chamber, she lifted her hijab directly?
Gu Chaobei was also taken aback, and then looked at her face, and said with a sneer, "Isn't everyone saying that Miss Gu San has a beautiful face that is so beautiful, why does she look like this?"

Gu Chaodong glanced at her sideways, his face suddenly turned pale: "Miss Fifth?"

Discussions gradually sounded in the wedding hall, not many people knew Shen Guiya, but there were many people who knew what Shen Guiyan looked like, this person was obviously not.How dare the Shen family dare to tease the prime minister's mansion like this?

"What's going on?" Prime Minister Gu stood up.

Shen Guiya was about to give the person who laughed at her a hard look, but when she glanced over, what she saw was a young man with red lips and white teeth, with a jade crown and hair tied up, sitting or not, but he didn't have an air of flirtatiousness.Her face was also extremely delicate, with a naughty smile that almost took her soul away.

So much so that Prime Minister Gu was standing in front of her, but she hadn't reacted yet.

"Fifth Miss!" Gu Chaodong's face was extremely ugly, he pulled the sympathy knot vigorously, and then pulled back Shen Guiya's eyes.

"...Ah? Oh, I'm Shen Guiya, the fifth daughter of the Shen family. Because the third sister's biological mother died of illness suddenly, and I'm pregnant with Mr. Gu's child, I'm going to get on the sedan chair first today." Shen Guiya was still a little dazed. He turned his head and said it directly.

What she didn't understand was that the ancients didn't appreciate such directness at all, they just felt that this girl was a bit shameless and ignorant of the rules.

Still unmarried.

Prime Minister Gu's complexion also darkened. After preparing for the wedding for so long, today because of such an incident, he became the laughing stock of Chao Li.Did the Shen family change the daughter-in-law he had decided on at will?
"Wait, you said you were pregnant with the young master's child?" Mrs. Gu heard the point: "How come...you and the young master..."

"Mother, the child in Miss Wu's belly is indeed my son's." Gu Chaodong clenched his fists, lowered his eyes and said, "It's not what the son wanted, but since he has it, the son will definitely recognize it."

The offspring are the most important.

Prime Minister Gu frowned, and sneered: "What do you mean, marry the Fifth Miss of the Shen family today?"

"That's the end of the matter." Gu Chaodong took a deep breath and said, "That's it."

"Then how should the third lady explain?" Gu Chengxiang said angrily: "I taught you that a man should be responsible, but I don't want you to take on one part and fail the other!"

Gu Chaodong felt that it was difficult to breathe, he felt that what happened today was absurd more than anyone else, that Shen Guiya would be pregnant with his child.He really likes Yan'er, but the child...

Gu Chaonan, who was standing next to him watching the fun, smiled softly, and touched the jade wrench in his hand.A concubine standing behind him had a slightly bulging stomach.

"My son will definitely go to Shen's mansion to apologize to Miss San."

There was a lot of discussion around, but Shen Guiya still had time to stare at Gu Chaobei.It must have been this person who played against her just now, trying to get her attention?Shen Guiya secretly thought, this man looks so good-looking, could it be her second boy?

Gu Chaobei was gleefully watching his elder brother who had always been scolded by his father, and felt Shen Guiya's gaze, so he looked back.

This woman's eyes are quite unclean, and she looks more disgusting than a dancer in a brothel.Gu Chaobei snorted and whistled softly to meet her gaze.

He hates this kind of women the most, and he likes to see their self-righteous appearance the most.This is Gu Si's bad taste.

Shen Guiya had a shy face on the other hand, thinking that his reaction must be because he was interested in her.The face she traveled through is similar to her modern one. She is very satisfied anyway. If she dresses up a little more, she will definitely be able to make the country and the city beautiful. Anyway, the appreciation level of the ancients is not very good.

"In that case, let's continue." Gu Chengxiang took a few deep breaths before suppressing his anger, and wanted to sit down, but in the end he couldn't bear the old face, and left without being saluted by the newcomer.

Mrs. Gu was in a complicated mood, she sat down and accepted their salutes, and then took Shen Guiya's tea, but she put it aside and didn't drink it, she just gave a red envelope.

Everyone around was talking about the Shen family's change of positions, and only Shen Guiya waited in the bridal chamber feeling good about herself.

"Her biological mother passed away?"

Gu Chaobei drank too much wine and was walking in the garden when he heard his elder brother's urgent voice.

The attendant Feng Xiaogong said: "I heard that it disappeared when Miss San was about to get married."

It's really interesting, the bride is already waiting in the bridal chamber, and he's still inquiring about Miss Shen's family?Gu Chaobei raised his eyebrows and hid behind the pillars in the corridor to listen.

"Yan'er must be very sad, and she must need me very much." Gu Chaodong thought for a while, but calmed down: "That's fine, when I go to Shen's residence in two days to help her with her funeral, she will forgive me more easily. Some."
