Chapter 2: Showing off to the end

After a while, Gu Nanxi was ready to start business.

Gu Nanxi opened her eyes slightly and saw a tall young man wearing sackcloth and mourning standing in front of a bright girl, looking at him warily.

Obviously he is the eldest son Su Xuanming.

Gu Nanxi made eye contact with the girl. The girl did not dodge, but smiled slightly. She fiddled with the hemp rope around her waist with her delicate hands, her expression full of determination to win.

This is the heroine Li Jingping.

"Sister-in-law, Su Xuanming is so outrageous! How could you bring a businesswoman to the mourning hall? Have you ever cared about the reputation of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion? Why don't you handle this matter quickly?" The speaker was Gu He has a copper complexion, sinister eyebrows, and small eyes that roll around, and he doesn't look like a good person.

He said he was thinking about Yongchang Houfu, but in his eyes he was eager to make this matter a big deal.

If the original owner's temper was to be followed, seeing the Hou Mansion's face being trampled on like this, he would have lost his temper and wanted to drive Jing Niang out.

It seems that this person is the eldest brother of Marquis Yongchang.

The original owner only had two sons and one daughter, and the second son was still a sick child. If the eldest son died, maybe the title of the Marquis House would fall into the hands of the eldest son.

Alas, I don’t know which deity this Yongchang Marquis has offended. Everyone in the house is either a villain or cannon fodder, or someone with evil intentions.

“Aniang.” The youngest daughter Su Yunyan hesitated to speak, but finally swallowed her words.

Gu Nanxi caught a glimpse of the pure jade hairpin Su Yunyan wore on her bun. It was exquisitely carved and looked like a piece of jade with a thousand taels of gold.

Su Yunyan only earns 5 taels a month, how can she afford this hosta?

Naturally, someone sent him off.

Gu Nanxi looked at Jingniang again. Jingniang lowered her head and did not feel disappointed because Su Yunyan did not ask for mercy.

“Ahem, Ahem, life is short, I’m afraid I won’t be able to serve as a successor to the Marquis. Why not let the eldest brother get what he wants? So that you can have a good grandchild as soon as possible. ." The second son, Su Yunting, covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed heartbreakingly.

He was dressed in plain white and looked hard and simple. He only had a short sword hanging on his waist, which didn't look like it belonged to the family.

From time to time, he rubbed the hilt of the sword with gentle movements. It was obviously Ai Ji's sword.

The old lady of the Hou Mansion appeared out of nowhere and said calmly: "Daughter-in-law, Xuanming was taken away by me since he was a child and I raised him under my knees. You have never been happy with him. But on such important events in life, you are still angry. With a loving mother's heart, feel sorry for Xuan Ming."

As the old lady carried a gun and a stick, Su Xuanming was like a firecracker, his face getting darker and darker, and he was about to explode.

At the critical moment, Jing Niang gently pulled his sleeve.

Su Xuanming actually suppressed his anger, pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were blazing, and he looked at Gu Nan Xi as if he were an enemy.

The guests who were supposed to express their condolences in the courtyard came in one after another seeing that there was a good show to watch.

Seeing that Gu Nanxi was still holding back, the loving mother system in her mind provoked: "This heroine gave jewelry to her youngest daughter and a sword to her second son. Your mother-in-law has never gotten along with you. She clearly wants to isolate you! Take it out! Go through the heroine's aura and show her who is the king!"

Gu Nanxi glanced at everyone lazily and raised her fingers at Su Xuanming.

Su Xuanming looked at Jing Niang beside him, and when he met her worried eyes, his heart ignited with endless courage.

Su Xuanming walked up to Gu Nanxi as if he was dead.

This young man is 1.8 meters tall.

Gu Nanxi was sitting on a stool, and she had to raise her neck to see his chin.

Gu Nanxi rubbed her sore neck and motioned for the boy to squat down. Su Xuanming hesitated for a moment, then squatted down.

"I disagree." Gu Nanxi said calmly.

Seeing Su Xuanming burning with anger and wanting to stand up for a confrontation, the loving mother system was still clapping in her mind and calling for a fight!

Gu Nanxi then said: "Your second brother's sword and your little sister's hosta were both gifts from Jingniang?"

Su Xuanming's expression changed several times. He was a bit rigid. It's not about giving gifts.

But it was Jing Niang who did this, and it was because of their marriage, so he could only pretend that he didn't see it.

Now that this matter was revealed by his mother, Su Xuanming felt weak for a moment.

"Ah, well, this, alas, yes." Su Xuanming admitted dejectedly.

A Tibetan Mastiff ready to attack instantly turned into a drowned dog.

Gu Nanxi couldn't help but laugh: "You, you."

"Madam, everything is my fault. Don't blame Su Lang, I begged him! The old Marquis passed away. , Su Lang doesn’t think about food or tea, I just I just wanted to accompany him and give the old Marquis a ride."

Jingniang couldn't hear clearly what the mother and son said. She only saw Gu Nanxi say something to Su Xuanming. He was listless, and his momentum dropped instantly.

Jingniang was worried that Su Xuanming would be persuaded by Gu Nanxi, so she didn't care about anything else and knelt down to Gu Nanxi.

Most of the guests are the matrons of the house. Who doesn’t have a few green camellias in their yard? You can smell it from a distance.

"This Mrs. Yongchang Hou is really unlucky for eight lifetimes. Her husband has green camellia flowers in the backyard, and her son wants to marry a green tea flower! Just thinking about it makes me feel aggrieved for her."

"Fortunately Jing Jing The one my mother is clinging to is Su Xuanming. If she clings to my son, I will have to ask a monk to break that brat’s legs.”

The ladies spoke in a moderate voice, just enough to be heard. Everyone heard it.

Jing Niang didn’t care at all. She had been running the store for many years and had heard countless gossips. How could she get angry because of this?

What's more, the more fierce these people scold him, the more Su Lang will feel sorry for him.

Sure enough, after Su Xuanming heard this, he looked at Jingniang with guilt-filled eyes.

He also knelt down: "Auntie, this is all my fault and has nothing to do with Jingniang. If you want to beat or scold me, I will admit it."

Gu Nanxi said feebly: "You are indeed at fault."

Su Yunyan looked at Gu Nanxi worriedly. My mother-in-law has always been careful about her words and deeds and pays great attention to her manners. Why is she so rude now? Could it be that he was angered by his brothers?

Gu Nanxi picked up a cup of tea, moistened her lips, and then slowly spoke under the spotlight: "You know how to ask her to do what she wants, but why don't you know how to do what I want?"

Gu Nanxi tilted her head, looked at Su Xuanming for a while, and then suddenly realized: "Is it possible that you don't know what my mother likes?"

Su Xuanming didn't react for a while, what my mother said was What's the meaning? Literally, or ironically?

Jing Niang also restrained her pitiful demeanor and put her whole body on guard, waiting for Gu Nanxi to make a big move.

Gu Nanxi motioned to Su Xuanming to come over and said, "I will tell you secretly, I have only been devoted to one thing in my life! That is gold!"

"Huh?!" Su Xuanming plucked his ears in disbelief. Is this still his glorious mother who only drinks dew and thinks talking about money is tacky? !

Gu Nanxi was angry: "What? The great son I raised with all my heart, even if I sold it by the pound, it would cost a hundred gold. As a businesswoman, doesn't she know For this reason, you want to spare me such a good boy for nothing?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent.
