The topic suddenly turned to Xu Zhimin. It was clear that the atmosphere at the dinner table was tense.
Tang Li's heart sees Xu Jingnan's lack of interest, and even his words are extremely perfunctory. He can't help suspecting that Gong Chen doesn't like Xu Zhimin. Xu Jingnan, Gong Chen's cousin, doesn't like Xu Zhimin either. But when he was in the Imperial Palace, Gong Zhenyang connived at Xu Zhimin. The old lady obviously protected Gong Chen, but she turned a blind eye to what Xu Zhimin did to Gong Chen, Only after Xu Zhimin passed the bottom line several times did the old lady really put on her face.
The situation of the palace family is heavy and complicated, and Xu Jingnan's attitude is really subtle.
Tang Lixin went to see Xu Jingnan.
Xu Jingnan took a sip of the soup and said with a slow smile, "I'm curious? But some words can only be said to my own people. If you are my sister-in-law... "
"I'm not curious." Tang Lixin interrupts Xu Jingnan.
You can't be curious.
Don't think about it.
Stop, stop.
Tang Lixin doesn't speak any more, but Xu Jingnan is energetic. In addition to talking about Gong Chen all the time, the mood of his eyes changes slightly before he leaves. He is clearly smiling, but the smile is full of evil. He leaves a meaningful sentence at the end of lunch, no, a paragraph.
Have you met my aunt Xu Zhimin?
What do you think? It's beautiful and noble.
In fact, she is a lunatic.
Tang Lixin didn't expect that the word "lunatic" would be used by Xu Jingnan to describe Xu Zhimin, and Xu Zhimin is not his aunt? What he meant should be his aunt.
Tang Lixin also want to explore, Xu Jingnan has left, there is no pity can not let a woman treat burden.
Sunday afternoon.
When Gong Chen returned to Gong's house, the old lady's face in the hall was very ugly. It was a rare upbringing that made old lady Gong not directly give orders to Joanna next to Xu Zhimin.
Until the appearance of Gong Chen just breaks this apparent rigidity.
"Back?" The old lady's tone obviously eased, and Gong Chen's willingness to come back proved that it was not too bad. Xu Zhimin was angry with Gong Chen and hid the matter of Gong Chen driving out from her when she came back!
Is she not to come back, the palace Chen also has no way to come back!
Before that, he turned a blind eye to Xu Zhimin, but Xu Zhimin was more and more aggressive, and even his son had to go out for an outsider.
"Grandma." Gong Chen's tone is very insipid, and her eyes don't fall on Xu Zhimin at all. It seems that Joanna beside Xu Zhimin doesn't see it.
Joanna breathed hard, but in the end she just laughed.
Gong Moli and Gong Xun are also ugly. They are sitting on both sides of the room, but the atmosphere that can be described as depression still affects them.
It's not once or twice.
As long as Gong Chen does something against Xu Zhimin, the atmosphere of the family is always like this. Gong Zhenyang never indulges and pampers Gong Chen, his real biological son and only son, except for his high standards and high requirements. Xu Zhimin is only happy with the contradiction between Xu Zhimin and Gong Chen. If the old lady doesn't treat Gong Chen as a treasure all the time, Pointing to Gong Zhenyang and Xu Zhimin, the situation between Gong Chen and Gong family may be worse.
One is that as a father, he doesn't know how to get along with his son and acquiesces in the contradiction between Xu Zhimin and Gong Chen.
One is that as a mother, she takes her son as her enemy.
There are so many contradictions. Even the adopted children have ulterior motives. The emperor's palace seems to be peaceful on the surface. These are the only ones with so many contradictions, not to mention the palace relatives who come to the palace with the trend of the end of the year.
Depression.
Heavy.
Gong Xun even if the relationship with Gong Chen is not bad, no matter how much he admires and gets close to Gong Chen, he also wants to escape from Gong's family, if it's not for Gong Molly.
Xu Zhimin knows that he will come back. No matter how far he runs, all his cards will stay in Xu Zhimin's hands. When people are surprised at Xu Zhimin's indifference to his eldest son and his concern for his second son, Gong Xun already knows that this concern is all based on his hatred and disgust for Gong Chen. Gong Xun doesn't know the real secret of the Gong family, But it is also clear that Xu Zhimin has never really loved him and Molly. He and Molly are more like Xu Zhimin's pets.
Gong Xun is very sober. He is too sober. It's because he is so sober that he is so painful. He almost doubts whether Xu Zhimin has a certain idea in keeping Gong Moli around, or that she already knows that Molly is a card that can hold him back.
Gong Xun's expressionless face looks at Gong Moli and signals her to shut up and not to interfere. He even increases the strength of holding her hand under the table.
Pretend not to see.
Don't get involved in the quarrel between Xu Zhimin and Gong Chen.
Don't talk, Molly.
Just like before.
Gong Moli looks at Gong Xun and bites her teeth. Finally, she sits there with her head down like Gong Xun, pale but silent.
As well as Joanna, Xu Zhimin is trying to integrate Joanna into the palace family, presenting the most basic disputes in front of Joanna.
Joanna thought that she had found out the relationship between Xu Zhimin and Gong Chen. Only now did Joanna feel that the situation might be worse than she thought. She was not natural under the old lady's fierce eyes. She knew very well that Gong family, a diplomat who used to have a strong hand, didn't want to see her.
Xu Zhimin was the only one in the palace family who wanted to see her most, even when she had to marry into the palace family.
Xu Zhimin appeased and looked at Joanna. When she saw Gong Chen, her eyes and tone became invincible again. Her eyes were very cold, and her tone was also cold. Looking at Gong Chen, she frowned and said: "it's not that I can't come back. What are you going to do now?"
"Who said he would not come back! Why don't you get rid of me when you get rid of him! " As soon as the old lady came back to know that Gong Chen had been driven away, she was extremely angry. Even if no one dared to tell her the truth, she could guess that it was Xu Zhimin who did it again, and only Xu Zhimin could do it.
Xu Zhimin pursed her lips. She didn't speak any more under the old lady's fierce eyes. She took a sip of tea slowly.
"Come here, grandma." The old lady motioned to Gong Chen for a moment, as if back to the strongest and most iron hand of that year. After Gong Chen sat down beside him without too much emotional fluctuation, she continued strongly: "what's the matter, what happened to you and your mother? Tell Grandma, your father won't make the decision for you, I'll make the decision for you!"
The atmosphere suddenly quieted down.
"Nothing happened. You're worried." Gong Chen's low voice suddenly rang out, "you should have an early rest when you come back. Let's go. I'll help you up."
Gong Chen said that he would do as good as he could. He changed the tit for tat with Xu Zhimin when he left the palace, as if he didn't care about what Xu Zhimin had done.
