"Why didn't you tell this to Gong Ou?"
Shi Xiaonian asked.
If you tell him, you think you can come back and inherit the Gong Jia? He has a stubborn personality disorder, he won't do that. Luo Qi said with a face that could move others. Her tone was filled with despair.
"Is inheriting the Gong Jia so important? Gong Ou has his own business empire, and he has achievements that no one can compare to in the field of science and technology. As long as he is here, the Gong Jia will never be able to drift. " Shi Xiaonian said.She really did not understand why they insisted on the word "inheritance".
Was it that important?
"What about the glory of the nobility? And what about all the business of maintaining the family reputation? Will he do it? " Luo Qi looked at Shi Xiaonian and asked.
Shi Xiaonian was rendered speechless by the question. She knew very well that Gong Ou only liked to study in science and technology. Even in such a large business empire, there were many teams taking care of his interpersonal relationships for him.
He did not like the complicated internal affairs of the Gong Jia, so it was even less of a problem for him to take care of himself.
"Is it that important?"Shi Xiaonian asked.
Luo Qi knew what she wanted to ask, and laughed bitterly as she stood up from the bench, and looked at the sky, "After so many years, I don't know if it's important anymore, I only know that my husband has been working hard for so long, and is still not willing to give up."
"…"
"On the day of his death, he brought me the double he trained." Luo Qi said, "He told me that as long as Gong Ou is not willing to wholeheartedly contribute to Gong Jia, this double would continue to replace him."
"…"
Shi Xiaonian was shocked.
Luo Qi turned around to face her, opened her arms, and caressed a flower on the tree with her fingers. "You heard it just now, there are always all kinds of matters waiting for him to settle, including the balancing of interests with the various great clans. If not for the fact that this enormous Gong Jia still has Gong Jue's name supporting it, it would be a hundred times more declining than it is right now.
So that's how it was.
Shi Xiaonian finally understood everything. Everything was for the Gong Jia's so-called glory of nobility.
"That's because all of you place too much importance on so-called fame. That's why you're being led away by the nose."Shi Xiaonian said, her voice slightly hoarse.
"That's right. It's like human dignity. You can ignore anything if you throw away your dignity, but how many people can do that?" Luo Qi asked.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian was speechless.
Luo Qi looked at her, her voice choked with emotion, "I won't force you as a commoner to understand this, but I hope that you can keep this a secret and not tell Gong Ou about it."
This matter was not yet known to Gong Ou.
Shi Xiaonian shook her head, "Gong Ou is already willing to inherit the Gong Jia, I do not understand what else to hide."
Back then, when Gong Ou made trouble for him, he said that he would not inherit it because the Gong Jia wished for him to marry his.
"I mean wholeheartedly."Luo Qi said.
Hearing that, Shi Xiaonian quickly said: "You are forcing me to."
How could Gong Ou wholeheartedly organize the Gong Jia's internal affairs? In her opinion, Gong Ou should be the one wandering around the scientific and technological realm, that was his true nature."Then even if he were to inherit the position of the Gong Jia, it would be impossible for him to sincerely manage it. At that time, the Gong Jia would decline as well." Luo Qi said, "That's better than me and a corpse. At the very least, I can hold on for more than ten or twenty years, I definitely can't let the Gong Jia fall!"
What she wanted was for the Gong Jia to become prosperous and be looked up to by others forever, and not just for Gong Ou to earn some money.
"…" Shi Xiaonian stood in front of Luo Qi, looked at the tears on her face, and her brows knitted slightly.
Luo Qi looked at her and asked, "You are not willing to lie to Gong Ou?""…"
Shi Xiaonian remained silent. In her opinion, Gong Jue and Luo Qi were like those people in the Lancaster family, who had all fallen into a demonic state for some unknown reason.
"Bam."Luo Qi suddenly kneeled in front of her.
Shi Xiaonian looked at Luo Qi in shock and quickly reached out to support her, "What are you doing? Get up. "
Kneeling down to her.
"Don't expose this matter. Don't tell anyone else. I can't disappoint my husband. I can accept that the current situation is better, but I definitely won't allow it to get any worse."
Luo Qi said, "Xi Xiaonian, you were held in the palm of Gong Ou's hand, so I can't do anything to you. I don't expect you to understand the future of Gong Jia either, I only hope that you keep this matter a secret for the time being. "
The future of Gong Jia was not to be undermined by anyone."Mother, you get up first."
Shi Xiaonian pulled her, but was unable to do so. She turned and looked at Charles, "Charles, come over and help."Charles stood there and did not move, he only said, "Young Madam, just agree to Madam.
"…"
Looking at the noble Luo Qi kneeling in front of him, Shi Xiaonian's nose began to feel sore, and she couldn't pull her away no matter what. She could only say, "Alright, I agree.
Luo Qi raised his eyes and looked at her gratefully, her voice choked and she wanted to say something. She reached out her hands to cover his head, and her face was filled with pain.
"Mother, how are you?""Madam, you're not feeling well? "Come, let's return to our room."
Charles stepped forward to support Luo Qi as he left, and Shi Xiaonian accompanied him.
Maybe it was due to his emotions fluctuating greatly, but Luo Qi was about to lie down on the bed again. Shi Xiaonian's emotions were complicated, so he silently withdrew himself, as he still did not know that his father had died four years ago.
Charles did not stay behind to take care of Luo Qi.
Looking at Charles, Shi Xiaonian said awkwardly, "Sorry, I didn't know anything and misunderstood you."
Her brain was opening a little too wide."There is no need for Young Madam to apologize to me, a butler."
Charles said with a smile, and followed her out.
As the two walked in the quiet ancient fortress, Shi Xiaonian turned to look at him, "You have something to tell me?""Yes." Charles slowly stopped his steps and looked at Shi Xiaonian with her eyes as she said in a serious tone, "Since Young Madam knows about this matter, I hope Young Mistress can properly advise Second Young Master, and let him begin to control the Gong Jia right now, so that he can give Mistress a bit of hope."
To the Second Young Master, perhaps only the Young Madam could listen.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lips and said, "Charles, why are you making things so difficult for me? In Gong Ou's mind, he had been waiting for dozens of years before he could take over. How could he be willing to come back now? He could never be as wholehearted as his mother said he was. "
What could she do to persuade him?
Unless he told them the truth, and Luo Qi was worried that based on her character, once she heard that her father had passed away, she would become even more unrestrained and unwilling to control Gong Jia.
"If the old master is still alive, then of course he would take over in a few decades. But the old master is no longer around." Charles said as he continued to walk forward, "As you can see, Madam's health is not very good, and cannot stand the excitement. Second Young Master's temperament is unstable, and his words are filled with the rejection of the successor Gong Jia."I know."
She knew all of this, but what could she do to force Gong Ou to place all of her focus on the Gong Jia?
Charles walked beside her, looked left and right, and said: "Since you've said all that, I'm not afraid to speak too much with the young mistress."
"What?"
Shi Xiaonian was startled."I've never said these words to anyone before, and it really makes me feel bad to hold it in." Charles said, "Ever since Master went over, it was as if Madam lost her soul. She couldn't even cry, and couldn't even hold the funeral, she still had to support Gong Jia by herself and pretend that Master was still alive. If this goes on, I'm very worried that there will be problems with Madam here. "
Charles said as he pointed to his own head.
"…"
Shi Xiaonian opened her eyes wide in shock. She had even forgotten how many things had happened to her today.
"We have always maintained the false image that the master is still alive, and at first I thought the lady had put on a good act, but in the end the lady would say to me that the master had praised her for the good dress yesterday; the master said he would go on his journey with her after all his work; he said he would bring the master a glass of milk." Charles said.
"Are you saying that Mother is completely immersed in this play?" Shi Xiaonian asked in surprise.
After asking this question, her heart fiercely trembled.
Charles sighed softly, "Yes, so I am really worried about Madam's situation. I hope Second Young Master is willing to return home and take responsibility, before the news of Master's death can be spread so that Madam can clear her mind and relax her mind, so that she won't get addicted to it."
"…"Shi Xiaonian was speechless.
"Young Mistress, the current Gong Jia is like a castle built using bamboo sticks. It looks incomparably majestic, but as long as I gently push it with my hand, it would be as complete as sand." Charles said, "Please give it some thought, Young Madam."
Shi Xiaonian stopped in her tracks and did not speak.
"Then I'll go serve the Madam first."
Charles said, then turned and left.Shi Xiaonian stood there, looking at his back, and couldn't help but ask, "Charles, why did mother freeze Father's body for four years?"
Hearing that, Charles turned to look at her, and sighed lightly, "This is another story."
"…"
Shi Xiaonian looked at him silently.
"Actually, I do not know the reason for Madam's actions. I only know that Madam had admired Master for a long time and had done many things in secret before successfully marrying him. But Master only knows how to fight for Gong Jia all these years." Charles said, "For the past four years, Madam has always gone to the study room to talk with the Master. Maybe this is what she wants."
She wanted it.A living person couldn't give her much of a gentleness, but after death, they would finally belong to her, so Luo Qi didn't want Gong Jue to leave.
As Shi Xiaonian listened, she felt an indescribable pain in her heart.
If it was really like this, then Luo Qi had done far too much for Gong Jue, and had been let down and ignored far too much.
"What are you thinking? "Hey!"
"Shi Xiaonian, are you stupid?""Don't tell me you're thinking about men. I'll bite you to death!"
