Chapter 762 Cousin, Brother-in-law Has Changed
Meng Yunlan was furious at his indifferent attitude: "Okay, you don't want to go, right? If you don't go, I'll ask my mother to help me get it!"
"It's useless for anyone to go."
"I don't believe it! You clearly refuse to stand up for me! Gu Qianling, you've changed. You're fed up with me now and don't care about me at all!"
"Yunlan, calm down for a moment. When have I ever stopped caring about you? Let's go back first. If there's anything, we can discuss it slowly."
"I don't want to discuss anything. I want you to go find my second brother right now and bring my nanny and maid back!"
Gu Qianling sighed, and the feeling of fatigue once again surged into his heart.
His voice was slightly hoarse: "Okay, then I'll go find my second brother."
"Really?"
"Well, you go back first!"
"Why did you suddenly agree to help me get someone back?"
"If I don't ask for it, you'll say I don't care about you anymore."
Meng Yunlan's expression brightened considerably, and his voice softened. "Qian Ling, I didn't mean to argue with you. You know, I'm usually very kind and considerate. I always prioritize the overall situation and never argue with anyone."
"But today my personal nanny and maid were taken away. I'm really worried about them. Nanny Ping is old and can't stand it. Shancha is timid and will cry at the slightest thing."
"If I, as their mistress, don't save them, who else can? And if this gets out, everyone will think I'm incompetent and can't even protect my own maids. Who will dare to be loyal to me in the future? How can I manage the household?"
Gu Qianling rubbed his brows, the tiredness on his face becoming more and more intense. "Alright, I know you have a kind heart, and I understand your difficulties. I'll go get my second brother right away, and I'll definitely get him back for you. You can go back now!"
After he finished speaking, he took a step forward and walked towards Gu Qianhan's yard.
Meng Yunlan didn't notice his tiredness at all. Seeing him finally go to get the person, the corners of her lips twitched slightly. Fortunately, she could still control Gu Qianling.
A faint voice suddenly rang out from behind: "Cousin sister is really good at controlling her husband. With just a few words, she made her brother-in-law go to the Second Young Master to ask for the girl."
Meng Yunlan turned around and sneered, "Why are you talking like that now? Why were you pretending to be dead when Shen Wantang was talking nonsense about me? What did I tell you before? Bringing you out to see Gu Qianhan was just to create an opportunity for you, wasn't it? Why didn't you take the opportunity to get close to him? You can also disgust Shen Wantang!"
Qiao Zhiyu hung her head, cursing Meng Yunlan in her heart, but she humbly said, "Cousin, you really flatter me. I was so frightened by what happened just now that I forgot everything. I don't have the knowledge and aura of your cousin. She can be so calm and composed when facing someone like the Second Young Master, and she's not at all flustered when facing my brother-in-law. I've shown my weakness. Please forgive me this time."
There was a hint of sarcasm in Qiao Zhiyu's tone, but deep down, he actually admired Meng Yunlan's ability to manipulate people's hearts.
It would be great if she could also do this, so that she wouldn't have to be as cautious as she is now every time she sees Gu Qianling, fearing that she might do something wrong and make Gu Qianling dislike her.
"Cousin, look at how unpresentable you are! Why are you so reserved? You are, after all, the eldest daughter of an official family. You are indeed a little inferior to me, but you are no worse than Shen Wantang. She has an air of fearlessness, so your aura should not be any worse than hers!"
"Yes, yes, my cousin is right. It's all my fault for being too timid. I will learn from her in the future."
"Alright, stop rambling. Go back first. Today's not the right time. Show up at Gu Qianhan's place another day and try to leave a deep impression on him."
"Yes, I will follow my cousin's arrangements in everything."
Meng Yunlan nodded, reluctantly satisfied with Qiao Zhiyu's obedience.
She walked back with Qiao Zhiyu, whispering as they walked, "The more I look at Shen Wantang, the more I feel something is wrong. Do you think she's weird?"
Qiao Zhiyu thought to herself, you are much weirder than Shen Wantang!
"Yes, cousin is right. Shen Wantang is not a good person at first glance. He is very scheming!"
"Even you can see that she's scheming? Oh, I was saying she looked weird, and it turns out she's scheming! If my cousin hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed this. I thought she was just jealous of my relationship with Qianhan! You said I always think the best of people, and I suffer because I'm too naive!"
Qiao Zhiyu rolled her eyes secretly. She knew that Meng Yunlan was going to put all the bad things on her head again. She pretended to be innocent and simple. No wonder she described Shen Wantang as "weird". It turned out that she was waiting for her to reveal her "scheming".
Fortunately, Qiao Zhiyu was already used to Meng Yunlan's behavior, so her response was very smooth and natural: "My cousin is a lady from a wealthy family, so naturally she doesn't understand the scheming of a woman like Shen Wantang who comes from a humble family."
"You didn't even notice. When she came back, she clearly saw you and the Second Young Master, but she deliberately didn't move forward. She deliberately waited for my brother-in-law to come back from his shift and started chatting with him!"
"She's so shameless! Her husband is right next to her, but she refuses to go up and talk to him. Instead, she blocks his way and chats with him about this and that. I bet she's definitely saying bad things about my cousin in front of him!"
When Meng Yunlan heard her say this, his face suddenly darkened.
Of course, she had seen Shen Wantang coming back a long time ago, but she refused to move forward.
At first, she didn't understand why Shen Wantang did this. She thought she was jealous and angry because she saw her and Gu Qianhan talking there.
So she deliberately stopped Gu Qianhan and prevented him from picking up Shen Wantang.
Unexpectedly, Gu Qianling also came back and went to talk to Shen Wantang!
Only then did she realize that Shen Wantang was standing there, waiting for Gu Qianling! Then the two of them chatted so happily that they didn't even notice when she and Gu Qianhan approached them!
Shen Wantang is so scheming and uses such disgusting methods!
Seeing Meng Yunlan's expression change, Qiao Zhiyu knew her words had taken effect. She continued, "Cousin, I'm actually a little confused. The last time I came, I remember my brother-in-law was very kind to you. He always went along with you and always put you first. But this time, I feel like my brother-in-law...he..."
Meng Yunlan said coldly: "You are hesitating, what exactly do you want to say?"
"No, no, I just feel that my brother-in-law seems to be getting a little impatient with my cousin."
"Nonsense! I think you're blind. Qian Ling is still very kind to me and obeys me in everything!"
"Don't be angry, cousin. I'm not saying that my brother-in-law treats you badly. I think that after Shen Wantang got married, she started saying bad things about you in front of my brother-in-law, so my brother-in-law has changed. Cousin, you have to take this seriously. This is not a trivial matter."
