C243 "Gu Xin, who are you hiding in your heart?"
Gu Xin, who are you hiding in your heart?
Gu Yue remained silent. Xiao Wanyin was very moved, but she could not suppress the emotions in this man's heart.
She looked at Gu Xin's face and her heart darkened.
"I really don't know what I should do to make you look at me."
"When you were married to her, you should have known that this marriage was destined to be incomplete."
He could pretend to be a popinjay, walk the streets every day and act like he was hopeless, to let the emperor relax his guard. But in the end, he was still the Gu family's most beloved son, the flesh and blood of the Gu Hou, who had been raised by his family since childhood.
He didn't care if he went on the battlefield to kill his enemies and share the same grievances with the soldiers, but he couldn't pretend to be his own feelings.
Back then in Mei Family, he had only barely managed to disguise himself in front of Mehanlin's mother and son. That was because Mian Niang didn't want to, but even so, he didn't have any good intentions in disguising himself.
He could hide who he liked, but he didn't want to hide who he didn't like.
"But we are already married. If you were unwilling, you shouldn't have agreed to this marriage." Xiao Wanyin was tired and helpless, between her brows there was also a tinge of sadness.
"I can't do that. Grandfather is seriously ill, I have to listen to anything he says."
"Gu Xin!" Xiao Wanyin could not take it anymore and immediately slammed the table: "Don't you think that's too much?"
"You don't want to go against your grandfather, so you agreed to this marriage, but you agreed to this marriage, and yet you refuse to live in peace with me. "What exactly do you think in your heart?"
Gu Xin raised his head, feeling that her anger had come to him in some inexplicable way. "I'm living a peaceful life."
He was not a person like the Mehanlin, who would abandon his wife at all times.
But thinking about it, her current actions were no different from when the Mehanlin was supported by Mian Niang, with a malicious intent. For a moment, she felt guilty and frowned, not saying a word.
He began to reflect on whether he was really wrong.
This marriage was not pure, both he and Xiao Wanyin were tools used by the two families to marry each other.
This seemed to be the same reason why Mian Niang married Mehanlin back then.
He finally understood Mian Niang's state of mind at that time and he had no idea that Mian Niang was in such pain. Then, would Mian Niang be like Xiao Wanyin at that time, hoping for her husband to be together with her?
His mind trembled, and raised his head to look at Xiao Wanyin.
Originally, Xiao Wanyin had many things to say, but being stared straight at by him, she instantly forgot what she wanted to say.
Gu Han deeply frowned as he looked at her.
Mian Niang had never hoped for the Mehanlin's feelings, she only thought about them the most, so she could peacefully pass her days.
It was just like what he was thinking right now.
He sat up straight and organized his thoughts, then said: "It used to be my fault, I shouldn't have ignored you here, but some things still need to be clarified, just like what I said just now, we already have a lot of things to do in this marriage, if you want me to go with you, I can't do it, but since you have already become my wife, according to reason, I can't be too cold to you, don't worry, in the future, this kind of thing won't happen again, I'll eat breakfast with you every morning, as for the rest of the time, you know the rules of the family, as long as you are at home, you have to go to my grandpa to eat with me."
He said it too straightforwardly, and so the marriage between the two of them came to the surface, yet Xiao Wanyin was unable to find any problems, and only felt that his heart was severely injured, and was even more at a loss as to what to say.
"I'm not talking about eating."
"You don't have to worry about anything else, you are my Gu family's Third Young Madam's wife, so you should be treated with quite a bit of respect. If anyone bullies you, even if it's someone else's elder, you can tell me."
He thought about Mian Niang, about the grievances Mian Niang had suffered in the Mei Family, and her words became more and more sincere: "I don't like you, but I'll also support you, and won't let you be bullied a little. "If anyone dares to bully you, you can just bully them!"
Back then, there was actually one less person at Mian Niang's side. Back then, if there was someone who stood up for her like she did, wouldn't she suffer a little less?
Xiao Wanyin felt that Gu Xin was looking at him, but she also felt that Gu Li's eyes seemed to be looking at other people through him.
Her heart was filled with sadness. A layer of dust and mist accumulated in her heart, making her unable to breathe.
"Gu Xin, how on earth did you manage to say such heartless words in such a responsible manner?"
"Heartless?"
Gu Han couldn't understand her. He had already said that he would support her and not let her suffer any grievances in the Gu family, allowing her to have the dignity that a Gu family's Third Young Madam should have. Why was it that he was still the heartless one from her mouth?
"Please, be merciful. Tell me what kind of person you have in mind."
Xiao Wanyin fixed her eyes on Gu Xin and asked.
Gu Xin did not look for Mian Niang that night.
Of course, he did not answer Xiao Wanyin's question.
In this family, from beginning to end, other than Gu Wenguwu, no one knew who he was hiding in his heart.
Back then, he was only a little bit better to Song Zhixiao, but Song Zhixiao had unluckily become Xiao Zongxian's target, and was now still charging into the northwest.
One eat, one grow wisdom.
Xiao Wanyin was a member of the Xiao Family. No matter how kind and gentle she looked, she could not be treated as a harmless little rabbit.
He had such a person hidden in his heart, and now that he couldn't immediately marry her off, he naturally had to protect her well and not let anyone know about it.
He only disdained these private fights in the backyard, but that didn't mean that he didn't know anything.
His conversation with Xiao Wanyin was not considered complete.
However, he didn't go out that night.
Xiao Wanyin's words had reminded him that he could not worry about Xiao Wanyin, but she had to be on guard against him.
The martial arts expert who was willing to serve the Prince Rong's Mansion with his life.
Gu Xin thought to himself, if Jiang Ting really followed behind him, he would be able to defend against him.
The conclusion was fifty-fifty.
Although he and Jiang Ting had never been able to determine the victor, he was not sure if he would definitely win against Jiang Ting.
The maidservants came in to make up the beds, and also to get some water for the two masters to wash up.
He sat on the bed in his room and pondered his thoughts, then Xiao Wanyin waved his hand and walked in with hot water.
He put the hot water on the ground and reached for his boots.
Gu Xin hurriedly moved his feet away and looked at her in surprise.
"This kind of thing, I don't need you. I can do it myself."
"Master, this is my duty."
Xiao Wanyin was already regretting her words. Her words had only been intended to provoke Gu Xin, but before this, she had never thought that Gu Xin would have someone in his heart.
She had only wishfully assumed that the awkwardness between the two was only because the relationship between the two families was originally opposing. Furthermore, everyone knew about the feud between Gu Han and her elder brother.
Therefore, the two did not get along well.
When she asked this question, she didn't get the answer she wanted. Gu Xin only gave her a deep look, but didn't say if it was true or not.
She faintly felt that she was wrong. This kind of question seemed inappropriate, but the more she asked, the more she wanted to know whether or not Gu Xin really had such a special existence in his heart.
As she spoke, she took off Gu Xin's boots, feeling a little wronged and a little compensated.
He also wanted Gu Han to see his own good, to understand his own gentleness and benevolence.
Gu Xin pushed her hand away.
He felt that he had never been raised to this extent before. Washing his feet was something that he had never even used a servant girl before, so how could he use her?
He took off his boots, socks and put his feet in the basin.
"You don't have to."
He thought about it, if Mian Niang had also washed the Mehanlin's feet before, he would be so angry that he would kill someone, and since he couldn't treat her the same, he shouldn't enjoy her gentleness and consideration.
Furthermore, Gu Xin also felt that it was really awkward.
To put it bluntly, although he was born into a wealthy family and seemed to be a lawless person, he was still used to staying in the army camp. He really wasn't used to being closely attended to by a woman like this.
Xiao Wanyin couldn't see his consideration, but could only see his indifference and sadness.
He looked at Gu Xin in grief, completely different from the Third Young Madam of the Gu family who had summoned Xiu Chi here for an interrogation.
"You should go rest first. You don't need to take care of the things here."
Xiao Wanyin bit her lips, and said unwillingly: "You really don't like me."
Gu Han raised his eyes and looked at the wronged expression on her face. He couldn't help but frown.
He really didn't know how to deal with such a woman.
A Xiao Wanyin like him was also different from Mian Niang, he would rarely reveal such a sad and bitter expression, and the reason why he did it sometimes was only because he was being forced too hard.
Mian Niang didn't seem to be so heartbroken just because she couldn't beg a man.
He was momentarily unable to imagine if Mian Niang had liked him, would she have revealed such an expression.
Soon, this thought was dispelled from his mind.
Mian Niang did not want to continue anymore, she had already suffered so much, if he continued to grieve like this, his heart would definitely ache.
"Go to sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow to hurry on our way."
Once again, he opened his mouth to kick her out, but no matter how thick-skinned Xiao Wanyin was, he could not take it anymore.
After he finished washing his feet, he went back to bed. He put down the bed curtain and felt an arm reaching over. He looked at the woman who had her eyes closed in the darkness and let go of her hand.
Xiao Wanyin tightly closed her eyes. She never thought that even after she used all her shamelessness, there would still be such a result.
Husband and wife shared a dream, her tears wetting the pillow.
Gu Yue remained silent. Xiao Wanyin was very moved, but she could not suppress the emotions in this man's heart.
She looked at Gu Xin's face and her heart darkened.
"I really don't know what I should do to make you look at me."
