Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

  The Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong and Yong has fallen. In addition, Gu Huaijin has no prestige in the circle of honor, and is ridiculed in the circle of scholars, so very few people came to offer condolences.

  Most of them had their family stewards come to pay the funeral, and those who valued more sent their nephews and sons to come.

   On the contrary, everyone who had a good time with Gu Lezhuang came. As for Gu Lekang, none of his classmates and friends came.

  Gu Lezhuang glanced at him worriedly at first, and he was relieved to see his calm and unconcerned expression.

  Gu Lekang burned the paper money in the brazier, and bowed to thank those who came to express his condolences. Why would he care about which one?

  , he will remember their affection, and if they don't come, he doesn't have to worry anymore. It also shows how failed he was back then. He was a bad person, couldn't make true friends, and was still blind.

   However, he doesn’t need to be angry, because even his parents may be fake, not to mention his friends and classmates? So you can't see people with your eyes, you have to use your heart.

   He can even accept that his parents have become like this, can't he accept the affection of a few classmates and friends?

  Gu Lezhuang looked at the third cousin with a calm face, and couldn't help but glance at the second cousin, and both sighed slightly.

   "Master, someone is coming from Lingsheng Street." A steward hurried over to report.

  The man who was offering the incense was Wan San from the big house of Dingguo’s mansion. He was a concubine. Hearing the words, he immediately put the incense and waved to Gu Lezhuang: “Whoever our brother is with, let’s go.”

  Gu Lezhuang hurriedly returned a salute and then turned around to pick up people. Gu Lekang also got up and gave Wan San a salute, then looked at the door.

   Seeing Gu Jingyun's family coming, he sighed slightly and stepped forward to bow to him.

   His wife, Gu Su, took her son in a daze, and followed him in a salute.

   Gu Jingyun returned a salute before looking at the mourning hall.

  The mourning hall was well arranged, Gu Huaijin's tablet was placed in the center, and there was a line of small characters in the lower left corner inscribed with the person who stood up.

  Gu Lekang lit a handful of incense and handed it to him. Seeing him staring at the coffin in a daze, he turned and handed it to Li Baolu.

  Li Baolu took it and distributed the incense to the three children behind him before touching Gu Jingyun and handing it to him.

   Gu Jingyun took it, and after three salutes, he put the incense on it. When it was the turn of the next three children, Gu Jingyun said, "Let's kneel."

  The servants of Hou's mansion immediately brought up the three futons and put them away, and An An brought her two younger brothers to kneel and salute.

  Gu Su looked at them in astonishment, not knowing who they were, they seemed to have a close relationship with their family, but just said they were from Lingsheng Street, and did not report their family number.

  The three children put the incense in place, then turned around and saluted their titular second uncle.

   They never knew they had a second uncle before. It was only last night that their mother mentioned it to them. It turned out that their grandfather had just passed away. They thought he had died long ago.

   Otherwise, how could grandma marry grandpa?

The three children raised their heads and glanced at Gu Lekang curiously, thinking that he was not as good-looking as his own father. He gave him a big smile and secretly made a grimace.

   The child was so frightened that he hid behind his mother, but he couldn't help but secretly stretched out his head to look at it. Gu Lekang just looked down and saw it. He reached out and touched his son's head, and said to him, "This is cousin."

  The child called out in a low voice, "Brother."

   "This child is a little afraid of life," Gu Lekang asked hesitantly, "Brother, do you want to sit for a while?"

Gu Jingyun frowned and thought for a while, and was about to nod his head when he saw a noise from the back hall. An old woman pushed the girl away and came out. She suddenly saw Gu Jingyun standing in the hall and couldn't help but stop. pace.

  Later, the old woman came to support her, and whispered to comfort her: "Third Madam, it's time for you to take medicine, go back with the servant girl."

Mrs Fang stared at Gu Jingyun blankly, turning a deaf ear to the words of the mother-in-law, stared at Gu Jingyun for a while, then turned her head to look at Li Baolu, and swept her eyes across the crowd, she sneered, "Why, Qin Wenyin didn't come? ?"

  Gu Jingyun looked away and said with a flick of his sleeves, "I won't sit down anymore, please mourn and change."

   After saying that, he reached out and took Baolu's hand and walked out.

   Fang Shi was about to chase after him two steps forward. Gu Lekang had already held her hand one step ahead of her. He looked at her with a warning and said, "Mother, you are sick, it's time to take medicine."

   Mr. Fang was stunned and stared at Gu Lekang without speaking.

  Gu Lezhuang has already led Gu Jingyun out, and he is also afraid that the third aunt will have a conflict with Gu Jingyun at this time, and then the Hou Mansion will be laughed at again.

   After so many years, the scandal of that year has finally faded away, and he doesn't want to be brought up again.

  Gu Su didn't know what happened, but she followed her husband's footsteps and stepped forward to support her mother-in-law and said, "Mother, daughter-in-law will take you back."

  Gu Lekang was afraid that something would happen to his mother, so he and Gu Su supported her back.

The expression on Fang's face was stunned. She turned around the back hall, walked through the yard and entered the garden before she came back to her senses. She broke free from Gu Su's hand and asked with a strange expression, "Is Qin Wenyin not here? Is she? did not come?"

  Gu Lekang suppressed his anger, waved his hand to let the servants back down, and then grabbed her arm tightly and whispered: "Mother, she has nothing to do with our family, and she is not the third brother, how could she come?"

"She didn't come, she didn't come..." Fang Shi couldn't help laughing, tears streaming but she laughed: "He wanted to go back to the capital to see her again, but she wouldn't come to see him even after he died. At a glance, what's the use of him dying, what's the use of being dead?"

   "Mother!" Gu Lekang couldn't help but shout: "Mrs. Bai is not in the capital. She followed her husband to the mountains and waters. The past has become a cloud of smoke. Let it go away when it should be gone. Why bother?"

Fang's tears flowed down the corner of her eyes, she staggered under her feet, leaned on her son and said dumbly, "I want it to go away too, but your father doesn't agree, he always remembers it, hangs it, it's him Don't let me go."

   Gu Lekang's face is ugly, obviously you two can't let go, can't see it! Thinking of his father's death, he couldn't help but closed his eyes and said, "Mother, now that my father is dead, what he can't let go of, you can let it go. I beg you, my son?"

  Fang shivered his lips and did not speak.

Gu Lekang lifted up his robe and knelt on the ground, raised his head and looked at her seriously and said, "Mother, no matter what happened to my son before, those things have already passed, and even the third brother doesn't want to mention it again, why should you think about it? You still have a son and a grandson, so you can forget about the past, help your son and daughter-in-law with the grandson, watch the play in your spare time, and grow flowers, okay?"

  Gu Su hurriedly knelt beside her husband, nodded in agreement, "Yes, mother, there are many things that my daughter-in-law doesn't understand, and you have to give me some pointers."

   Mr. Fang stared blankly ahead. After a while, she rolled her eyes and looked down at them. Finally, her eyes were fixed on Gu Lekang's face. She reached out to touch him and asked in a low voice, "Can you let it go?"

  Gu Lekang nodded affirmatively, "Of course!"

   "Even if I killed your father, are you willing to let it go?"

Gu Su's heart froze, and her fingers trembled with fright. She only heard her husband say in a firm and gentle voice: "Mother, you think too much, you didn't kill your father, his father died of a serious illness, and he was with you. You're okay."

  Fang slowly rolled his eyes, "Is it okay with me?"

   "Yes, it has nothing to do with you." Gu Lekang suppressed the tears in his eyes and affirmed.

  Gu Su's body felt cold all over, and the puzzlement that was suppressed before reappeared. The relationship between the father-in-law has been bad, and even the father-in-law is a little crazy. Although they live under the same roof, they rarely see it.

   And the husband's yard has always been managed by the husband himself. He is also filial. Every morning and evening, he is careful. Even if it is late at night when he returns home, he has to take a look at the in-laws to feel at ease.

   And the servants in the house did not dare to neglect. It was summer flood at that time, and the husband was going to inspect the county under his jurisdiction to ensure the safety of the river embankment.

   It would take more than 20 days for him to leave. Just half a month after he left, people in the father-in-law's yard suddenly reported that the father-in-law was unwilling to eat.

   At first she thought it was a bitter summer and the food didn't go well, so she invited the doctor and specially asked the cook to make him what he liked to eat.

   But her father-in-law just didn’t eat, and the doctors who invited her were helpless, so she could only write to her husband.

   By the time her husband came home, the father-in-law had lost a lot of weight, and he was only covered in leather.

   Seeing her husband, her father-in-law asked to go back to the capital, otherwise he would not eat. The husband agreed and gave him medicine and porridge himself.

  Father-in-law's situation began to improve.

   But when the autumn harvest was busy, the husband went on business trips for a few days from time to time, and the father-in-law started fasting again. No matter how she promised to send him back to Kyoto when he was sick, it would not work. He seemed to be sure that they were lying to him.

   After the husband came back, he coaxed him and asked a doctor, but it was useless. The father-in-law was firm this time and refused to eat.

   The husband had no choice but to have him pack his luggage and plan to take him back to Beijing, but the doctor said that his body would not last a few days, let alone rushing away.

In the end, the father-in-law was sick and hungry and tossed himself to death. She has been puzzled. Why did the father-in-law want to go back to Beijing so much? self-mutilation.

   How resolute must one's will to die to starve himself like that? Gu Su looked at her mother-in-law with cold hands and feet, and she couldn't stand up for a while.

  Gu Lekang stretched out his hand to help her up, patted her hand and said, "Go to the mourning hall first, and I'll take my mother back."

  Gu Su Shi nodded blankly.
