Chapter 639 Madam Has a Problem
Chapter 639: Madame has a problem here
"Why didn't you tell Gong Ou about this?"
Shi Xiaonian asked.
"If I tell him, can I come back and inherit the Gong family? He has a paranoid personality disorder, he won't, and the trouble will only become more violent. Once my husband dies and my son makes trouble again, the Gong family will be completely in turmoil." Luo Qi said, the sadness on her face was moving, and her tone was so desperate.
"Is it so important to inherit the Gong family? Gong Ou has his own business empire, and he has unparalleled achievements in the field of science and technology. As long as he is there, the Gong family will never be in jeopardy." Shi Xiaonian said.
She really didn't understand why they insisted on the word "inheritance".
Is it that important?
"What about the glory of the nobility? And what about maintaining the family's reputation? Will he do it?" Luo Qi looked at Shi Xiaonian and asked.
Shi Xiaonian was left speechless by the question, she knew too well that Gong Ou only likes to delve into technology, and even the huge business empire has many teams to take care of him in terms of interpersonal relationship.
He didn't like the complicated internal affairs of the Gong family, let alone handle them himself.
"Is that important?"
Shi Xiaonian asked.
Luo Qi knew what she was asking, smiled bitterly, stood up from the bench, and looked at the sky in the distance, "After so many years, I don't know if it's important anymore, I only know that my husband He didn’t give up until the last moment.”
"..."
"On the day of his death, he brought the double he trained to me." Luo Qi said, "He told me that as long as Gong Ou refuses to devote himself wholeheartedly to the Gong family, this double will continue to be the substitute."
"..."
Shi Xiaonian was shocked.
Luo Qi turned to face her, opened her hands, and brushed a flower on the tree with her fingers, "You heard it just now, there are always various affairs waiting for him to deal with, including the relations with the major families. Weighing the interests of each other, if this huge palace family is not supported by the title of palace noble, the situation will be more than a hundred times in decline than it is now, and anyone can bully it."
I see.
Shi Xiaonian finally understood everything, everything was for the so-called aristocratic glory of the Gong family.
"That's because you attach too much importance to the so-called fame, so you will be led by the nose."
Shi Xiaonian said, her voice was a little hoarse.
"Yes, it's like the dignity of a person. If you put aside your dignity, you can ignore everything, but how many people can put it aside?" Luo Qi asked back.
"..."
Shi Xiaonian was speechless.
Luo Qi looked at her, her voice choked up, "I don't force you, a commoner, to understand this, but I hope you can keep this secret and don't tell Gong Ou."
This matter can't let Gong Ou know.
Shi Xiaonian shook his head, "Gong Ou is willing to inherit the Gong family now, I don't understand what else to hide."
When Gong Ou made trouble, it was because the Gong family wanted him to marry, so he said he would not inherit.
"I said it with all my heart."
Luo Qi said.
Hearing this, Shi Xiaonian quickly said, "You are a difficult person."
How could Gong Ou devote himself wholeheartedly to sorting out the internal affairs of the Gong family, in her opinion, Gong Ou should make a breakthrough in the field of science and technology, that is his real world.
"Then even if he inherits the Gong family, it is impossible for him to manage it sincerely. Then the Gong family will also decline." Luo Qi said, "It's better for me to stay with a corpse, at least I can last a dozen or so. In ten years, I will never let the Gong family fall!"
What she wants is for the Gong family to be prosperous and to be looked up to forever, not just for Gong Ou to make some money.
"..." Shi Xiaonian stood in front of Luo Qi, looked at the tears on Luo Qi's face, and frowned slightly.
Luo Qi looked at her and asked, "Are you unwilling to deceive Gong Ou?"
"..."
Shi Xiaonian was silent. In her opinion, Gong Jue and Luo Qi were like those members of the Lancaster family, one by one fell into the devil for the fame and glory handed down from generation to generation.
"boom."
Luo Qi suddenly knelt down in front of her.
Shi Xiaonian looked at Luo Qi in shock, and quickly reached out to help her, "What are you doing? Get up quickly."
He even knelt down to her.
"Don't expose this matter to anyone. I can't live up to my husband's entrustment. I can accept that the current situation will get better, but I will never allow it to get worse."
Luo Qi said, "Xi Xiaonian, you are held by Gong Ou in the palm of my hand, I can't do anything to you. I don't expect you to understand what the future of the Gong family means, I just hope you keep this matter a secret for now. "
The future of the Gong family cannot be destroyed by anyone.
"Mom, you get up first."
Shi Xiaonian pulled her, but couldn't pull her. She turned to look at Charles, "Charles, come and give me a hand."
Charles stood there without moving, and only said, "Young Madam, just promise Madam, it's just for you to hide this matter."
"..."
Seeing the noble Luo Qi kneeling in front of her, Shi Xiaonian's nose was sore, she couldn't move her no matter what, so she could only say, "Okay, I promise, I won't tell anyone about this until you Think clearly and announce it yourself.”
Luo Qi raised her eyes and looked at her gratefully, choked up and wanted to say something, stretched out her hand to cover her head, her face was full of pain, and she groaned in pain.
"How are you, mother?"
"Ma'am, are you not feeling well? Go, go back to your room."
Charles stepped forward to help Luo Qi leave, and Shi Xiaonian was with him.
Perhaps it was a big emotional fluctuation, Luo Qi was about to lie down on the bed again, Shi Xiaonian was in a complicated mood, and silently retreated, Gong Ou didn't know that his father had passed away four years ago.
Charles did not stay to take care of Luo Qi, but followed Shi Xiaonian out.
Looking at Charles, Shi Xiaonian said awkwardly, "Sorry, I misunderstood you because I don't know anything."
Her mind was a little wide open.
"Young Madam doesn't need to apologize to me as a housekeeper."
Charles said, smiling, and followed her out.
The two were walking in the quiet old castle, Shi Xiaonian turned to look at him, "Do you have something to tell me?"
"Yes." Charles stopped slowly, looked at Shi Xiaonian with a pair of eyes, and said solemnly, "Since the young lady knows the whole thing, I hope the young lady can persuade the second young master to let him try now. Take charge of the palace family, let Madam see a little hope."
For the second young master, the young lady is probably the only one who can listen to him.
Shi Xiaonian bit her lip and said, "Charles, why are you embarrassing me? In Gong Ou's mind, he has been waiting for decades to take over, how could he be willing to come back now, what should N.E do? I can’t do it wholeheartedly like my mother said.”
How can she persuade?
Unless the truth is told, Luo Qi is also worried that with Gong Ou's character, once he hears about his father's death, he will become more indulgent and uninhibited, and will not manage the Gong family.
"If the master is still alive, it will naturally take over decades later, but the master is no longer here." Charles said, and continued to walk forward, "You can also see that the lady's health is not good, especially because she can't stand the stimulation. The second young master's temperament is unstable, and his words are full of rejection of inheriting the palace family, Madam is exhausted now."
"I know."
She knows all this, but what can she do to force Gong Ou to put all her focus on the Gong family now?
Charles walked beside her, looked left and right, and said, "Since I've come to this point, I'm not afraid to say more to the young lady."
"what?"
Shi Xiaonian was startled.
"I've never said these words to anyone, and it's really uncomfortable to hold them in my heart." Charles said, "Since the master passed, the lady is like a lost soul. She can't cry, she can't hold a funeral, and she has to support her by herself." The Gong family, pretend that the master is still alive. If this continues, I am very worried that there will be problems with Madam."
Saying that, Charles pointed to his head with his finger.
"..."
Shi Xiaonian's eyes widened in shock, she forgot how many things she was shocked by today.
"We are always maintaining the false image that the master is still alive. At first I thought my wife was good at acting, but later on, my wife would even say in front of me that the master praised her for her beautiful dress yesterday; the master said that I will wait until everything is busy and go on a trip with her; say a glass of milk for the master," said Charles.
"You mean that mother is completely immersed in this drama?" Shi Xiaonian asked in surprise.
After asking, her heart trembled violently.
Charles sighed softly, "Yes, that's why I am very worried about Madam's situation. I hope that the Second Young Master will return home and take responsibility, and then the news of Master's death can be announced, so that Madam can be more sober, more at ease, and stop being obsessed. .”
"..."
Shi Xiaonian was speechless.
"Young Madam, today's Gong family is like a castle built with bamboo sticks, it looks extremely majestic, but in fact, as long as you stretch out your hand and gently push it, the whole area will be like sand." Charles said, "Please think about it, Young Madam. "
Shi Xiaonian stopped in her tracks and did not speak.
"Then I'll wait on my wife first."
Charles said, and turned to leave.
Shi Xiaonian stood there, looking at his back, couldn't help asking, "Charles, why did mother freeze father's body for four years?"
Hearing this, Charles turned his head and glanced at her, sighed softly, "This is another story."
"..."
Shi Xiaonian looked at him silently.
"Actually, I don't know the reason why Madam did this. I only know that Madam admired Master for a long time and did a lot of things secretly to marry Master. However, Master only knows how to fight for the palace family all these years." Charles said, " In the past four years, Madam has always gone to that study to talk to the master, maybe this is what she wants."
She wants it.
A living person can't give her much tenderness. After death, she finally really belongs to her, so Luo Qi refuses to let Gong Jue go.
When Shi Xiaonian listened, her heart was inexplicably uncomfortable.
If this is the case, then Luo Qi has done too much for Gong Jue, and has been let down and neglected 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!"
