Chapter 733 Cousin, are you still taking care of these things for your brother-in-law?
Chapter 733 Cousin, are you still taking care of these things for your brother-in-law?
Meng Yunlan snorted lightly, a faint sense of superiority on his face: "Gu Qianhan is indeed cold and ruthless to others, but I am not like others. With my help, it will be easy for you to get close to him."
Qiao Zhiyu's eyes widened: "Cousin, is this true? You can get close to him? I have little experience, please don't lie to me."
"Why would I lie to you? There's no point in lying to you about this kind of thing."
Meng Yunlan smiled slightly: "You may not know, but Shen Wantang and Gu Qianhan had a quarrel today. They must have become much more distant from each other."
"Ah? Is there any?"
Qiao Zhiyu tried hard to recall all of Gu Qianhan's reactions after picking up Shen Wantang on the way. "No? The Second Young Master even braved the heavy rain to pick up Shen Wantang and took her home. Although the two of them didn't talk much in the carriage, they were holding hands the whole time! The Second Young Master has a cold personality, so it's normal for him not to talk, right? Did my cousin misunderstand something? I don't think they have any estrangement!"
She even felt that Gu Qianhan and Shen Wantang not only did not quarrel, but seemed to have a very good relationship. Otherwise, with Gu Qianhan's aloof look, how could he hold Shen Wantang's hand all the way?
What's more, Shen Wantang came from such a humble background, the reason she was able to marry into the Duke's Mansion was because of Gu Qianhan's love for her, right?
It has been spread all over the place for a long time that Prince Xiao Qingyuan of Ning wanted to snatch Shen Wantang away, but he failed to snatch it away from Gu Qianhan!
"What do you know? Shen Wantang was just pretending outside. She was almost mad today. Otherwise, why would she run to you in the heavy rain?"
"Cousin, what do you mean by that? Why is Shen Wantang angry and wants to find me? Is there something else going on that I don't know?"
"It's not a big deal, it's just that Shen Wantang is petty. Today, the kitchen made some bird's nest soup, and I saw that I couldn't finish it, so I went to the study in the front yard and brought a bowl to Gu Qianhan."
Qiao Zhiyu hesitated, "So, Shen Wantang is... jealous? Is that why she quarreled with Gu Qianhan and became estranged?"
Meng Yunlan sighed, "Well, of course it's more than that. The main thing is that the study in the front yard is a restricted area and is not open to anyone. But Qianhan only let me in and didn't let Shen Wantang in."
Qiao Zhiyu frowned: "What? There is such a thing?"
"There are three doors in the front yard, and Shen Wantang couldn't even get through the first one. She was blocked outside by Qianhan's men. Not only was I invited into Qianhan's study, but even my maids and nannies were able to get through the first two doors. So, Shen Wantang was talked about by people in the mansion, saying she was worse than a maid. She had lost all her face, and she was really pitiful!"
Qiao Zhiyu imagined the scene, then touched his own face, and suddenly felt a sense of empathy: "This is indeed quite embarrassing. Not only is it embarrassing, but it's also aggrieved. And you can't make a fuss, otherwise it will be even more embarrassing. If it were someone with a worse temper, they might even vomit blood on the spot!"
I could tolerate this kind of thing no matter who tried to stop me, but I couldn't tolerate it if I was stopped by my husband's men.
The person next to you is not on your side, but on someone else. Your wife cannot enter his study, but your sister-in-law can. Who wouldn't be angry?
No wonder Shen Wantang ran to the Qiao family in the heavy rain and gave her such a luxurious and beautiful dress. It turned out that he wanted to use her to annoy Meng Yunlan!
Qiao Zhiyu glanced at Meng Yunlan and saw her condescending look, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.
Meng Yunlan is truly shameless. She ignored her husband and didn't even offer him an umbrella in such heavy rain, yet she was thinking of giving her brother-in-law some bird's nest soup? She has nothing better to do! Does Gu Qianhan need a bowl of bird's nest soup from her?
I'm afraid that everyone in the Duke's Mansion spoils her so much that she has no idea of her own place. She lives such a comfortable life that she has no idea how high the sky is and how deep the earth is!
Gu Qianling was so good to her that he didn't set any rules for her. He didn't take concubines or touch other women when she couldn't get pregnant. He also tried every way to comfort her and make her happy. That's why Meng Yunlan was so fearless!
Qiao Zhiyu was fuming with jealousy, but could only say, "So Shen Wantang is so disliked by the Second Young Master. She's not even as high a position in his eyes as you, my cousin!"
Her casual flattery touched Meng Yunlan's heart.
She smiled and said, "It's not about status or not. It's just that everyone in this family treats me sincerely and likes to be around me, so naturally I treat them sincerely too."
Qiao Zhiyu lowered her head and curled her lips. She almost grew up with Meng Yunlan, so of course she knew Meng Yunlan's personality. She liked the feeling of being the center of attention and liked everyone to revolve around her. If anyone didn't revolve around her, she would make things difficult for them.
After Shen Wantang came in, Gu Qianhan must have just been being intimate with his new wife and no longer took Meng Yunlan seriously, so Meng Yunlan was unhappy and deliberately went to give Gu Qianhan bird's nest soup!
"Alas, nothing happened today, but Shen Wantang made a big fuss out of nothing. I got scolded by my mother-in-law. They said I didn't know how to avoid suspicion. I was really wronged."
Qiao Zhiyu gave a fake smile: "It's all because my cousin is so outstanding. Shen Wantang is jealous of you and is deliberately picking on you. Don't take it to heart."
"Even before Shen Wantang came into the family, I often brought food and drink to Qianhan. I even took care of Qianhan's clothes all year round and prepared his three meals a day. I was also in charge of the people in his yard. Even the things in his bedroom were arranged by me. If Shen Wantang knew about this, I wonder if she would make a fuss again?"
"This...cousin, are you still taking care of these things for your uncle?"
Qiao Zhiyu complained in her heart, "You're meddling too much! What kind of good sister-in-law would meddle in her grown-up brother-in-law's bedroom?"
No wonder Shen Wantang wanted to hook up with Gu Qianling. If she didn't, she would probably not be able to swallow her anger!
"Cousin, I'm telling you these things because I trust you. Please don't tell Shen Wantang, lest she gets angry and starts arguing with Qianhan again. That would be my fault."
As Qiao Zhiyu listened to her, she started to pretend to be a good person again and almost couldn't help rolling her eyes.
She didn't know Shen Wantang, but she knew Meng Yunlan too well. Meng Yunlan said this because he wanted her to pass on the message to Shen Wantang!
However, Meng Yunlan had his own plans, didn't she? She had made this statement!
Meng Yunlan was still sighing: "Alas, I really didn't mean it today. I just thought that we are all family, so I took care of Gu Qianhan like my own brother."
"This Shen Wantang, after all, comes from a humble family. She has a narrow mindset and is a bit short-sighted."
"She's actually not worthy of Qianhan, so I wanted to introduce you, my cousin, to Qianhan. Cousin, you won't refuse me this favor, right?"
