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

  Gu Huaijin went to the funeral, Gu Jingyun only brought Baolu there, and the relationship between him and Zhongyong Houfu was cut a lot as soon as this person was buried.

   Gu Lekang obviously knew this too, and he looked back at him after sending off the mourners.

  Gu Su consciously walked beside Li Baolu, let their brothers walk in front, and the two couples slowly pulled away. Although her husband did not elaborate on what happened back then, she could sense her husband's guilt towards Gu Jingyun.

   So she was also very humble towards Li Baolu, and smiled softly when she saw her.

  Gu Lekang stopped when he saw the carriage with the Gufu logo in front of him, his fists clenched and loosened, and he said "I'm sorry" dryly.

  Gu Jingyun also stopped, slightly tilted his head to look at him and said, "You don't need to apologize, and the person who should apologize is useless."

  Gu Lekang smiled bitterly, "I know, but I can't help it..."

   "In the end, what happened back then has nothing to do with you." Gu Jingyun interrupted him coldly and said, "Let's live a good life in the future."

  Gu Lekang's eyes couldn't help heating up, and he choked up in response. He turned to face Gu Jingyun and bowed to the end, got up and looked at his wife behind him.

  Gu Su hurriedly bowed to Li Baolu and walked towards him.

  Li Baolu bowed back and walked to Gu Jingyun's side.

   Gu Lekang saw Li Baolu and suddenly remembered the kindness of Li Baolu's advice back then. He also bowed to Li Baolu before pulling Gu Su's family away.

  Li Baolu and Gu Jingyun watched their husband and wife leave, and when they got into the carriage and walked away, Gu Jingyun turned around and stretched out his hand to hold her hand, and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

Gu Lekang looked at the green trees that were slowly retreating outside the window, and slowly highlighted the qi that had accumulated in his chest for many years. He felt relieved in the five senses. He couldn't help but cocked the corners of his mouth happily, and couldn't help but say to his wife, "You know how old I was when I was young. Arrogant and stupid?"

Gu Su couldn't help but glared at him angrily, "How can you say that about yourself? My husband is restrained and prudent, how can he be arrogant? Not to mention stupid. You are a fourth-rank prefect at a young age, and you don't have much to look at the entire court. How can someone be as stupid as you?"

   "When I say stupid, I mean stupid in mind," Gu Lekang said after a pause, "Maybe he also has a stupid mind."

He sighed with a look of some memories: "I was young and frivolous at that time, my father was a flower, and I was smart since I was a child. Everyone around me, even everyone I met, praised me as a child prodigy, when others were still looking for mentors and friends. , I have already worshipped Gu Daru as my teacher. The brothers are more than ten or twenty years older than me, and they will be polite when they meet a little baby of my age. Everyone says that I will have great fortunes in the future. think so too.”

"So I was very domineering back then. The three major academies were headed by Songshan Academy, but I entered Changfeng Academy. In those years, I was able to come out on top in every academy competition, making Changfeng Academy close to Songshan and Qingxi. Great Academy. In other respects among my peers, I am the strongest in schoolwork, but what is the use of good schoolwork? People are stupid and blind, and they can't see the filth of prosperity.

   "Master," Gu Su couldn't help but whispered, "You are very smart. My grandfather and father both said that you are very powerful."

"That's just an appearance. When the third brother enters Beijing, the appearance will be destroyed," Gu Lekang said softly: "I have been living in the illusion constructed by everyone without knowing it, and the third brother directly pierced mine when he appeared. Fantasy, first my teachers, friends and classmates, then my parents, my entire family, and even the entire capital."

Gu Lekang's nose was slightly sour, but he smiled and said: "But I am very grateful to him, although the truth will be bitter, but it is better than living in a falsehood all the time. People only have one life, do I come and go in this world and only Can you live in a falsehood?"

  Gu Su looked at him blankly.

   "I feel guilty for him, but I'm also grateful. As for my sister-in-law," Gu Lekang said with a light smile, "she still gave me a few words back then, otherwise I wouldn't have time to prepare, and I would definitely feel more bitter in the future."

  Gu Su reached out and held his hand, "It's all good now."

   "Yes, everything is fine now, I have you and my son, everything is fine." Gu Lekang held her hand and laughed softly: "He doesn't blame me, I feel a lot more at ease."

  Gu Lekang relaxed, but felt that life was much better than before. Mrs Fang's spirit was still not good, she would occasionally talk to herself and say some crazy things, but most of the time she was quiet.

  Gu Lekang and his wife took time to accompany her every day, letting her go to the garden to relax and see her grandson. Although her condition has not improved, it has not deteriorated. The most important thing is that she will not mention Gu Huaijin again.

   But Old Marquis Gu can't do it anymore. He was struggling to survive, and he didn't dare to die. He was afraid that Gu Lekang would keep his filial piety once he died, so he cut off his future.

   But now that his son is dead, Gu Lekang has been filial piety for three years, and he can't stand it anymore when he is sad and disappointed and relaxed.

More than a month after Gu Huaijin's funeral, Old Marquis Gu also passed away.

   Lord Gu is a happy mourner, and everyone is not too sad, but two funerals were held in a row, and the Hou residence was a lot lower, and there was a feeling that the sun was setting in the west.

   This time, Gu Jingyun didn't bring his family, and only came to serve the three incense sticks by himself. Although some blame came out, most people were silent.

   Those noises slowly disappeared after a while.

  The Marquis of Zhongyong was inherited by Gu Huaide, and the mansion became an uncle. Gu Huaide and his son Gu Lezhuang sighed: "As your grandfather said, our mansion is going to decline."

   "Father, all sons are incompetent, unable to make achievements..."

  Gu Huaide shook his head and sighed, "How can I blame you, now is a peaceful and prosperous world, there is no way out for military generals, and people in our family, except your third uncle, have no talent in reading, and it is too difficult to get ahead."

   When he mentioned this, he couldn't help but think of Gu Jingyun, and couldn't help sighing, "If only Gu Jingyun didn't belong to the sect, it would be better if he and Kang'er were there to support the Hou Mansion..."

  Gu Lezhuang pursed his lips and didn't speak, thinking to himself: That's not because you were too cruel back then, it's okay to leave people off, and send people to hunt them down.

   Gu Huaide obviously also thought of this shameful thing, and coughed lightly: "Your grandfather's mourning period is not over, so you don't need most of the time. We have a reunion dinner at home and just change the plaque."

"Yes."

   After Gu Huaide became the lord, and his grandfather's filial piety had passed, Gu Lekang began to plan to return to his hometown to observe filial piety.

   Gu Huaide somewhat disagreed: "You still have to seek an official after keeping your filial piety, so why go back to your hometown? Although it is not advisable to drink and have fun during your filial piety, some communication is still possible, and you have to consider it after your filial piety."

  Gu Lekang said, "Uncle, I don't have many friends in the capital, so I might as well go back to my hometown to study with peace of mind."

   "Can't you study in the capital?"

   Gu Lekang was silent for a while and said, "Uncle, I don't want to stay in the capital, one is because I am uncomfortable in the capital, and the other is that staying in Beijing is not good for my mother's condition."

  Gu Huaide sighed when he heard the words, Gu Lekang was reluctant to take the examination for Shuji Shi in order to leave the capital.

   He couldn't bear to force him, and nodded in agreement with his request.

   Gu Lekang then withdrew.

   He returned to his hometown with his mother, wife and children. Every day, he read books, played chess, or went to the field to look at the crops. He lived happily every day.

   Leaving the capital, away from the familiar environment, and without Gu Huaijin, Fang's condition has improved a lot. Although he occasionally gets agitated, the situation is much better than before.

  Gu Lekang is even more reluctant to return to the capital.

   If the period of filial piety was not about to expire, and the capital wrote a letter to let him go back to his uniform, he would have almost forgotten his other identity.

  Gu Lekang wanted to keep his wife and mother, and only brought his son back to Beijing. This would be good for his mother's condition, lest her condition worsen when she returned to Beijing to see a familiar place.

   But when Mrs. Fang saw them packing up and confiscating her, she immediately became nervous. Every day she followed her son step by step and kept asking, "Where are you going? Do you want a mother?"

   After asking more than a dozen times a day, Gu Su couldn't help but worry: "Mother is like this, I'm afraid that you will get sick if you leave, and it will be worse for her health."

   Gu Lekang pondered for a moment, and finally sighed: "Forget it, let's go together as a family."

   Fang saw that she was about to pack up her things, and her heart relaxed. Instead of chasing after her son, she began to play with her grandson again.

  Gu Lekang and Gu Su sighed after seeing it. They thought her condition had improved, but it seemed she still had to work hard.

  Gu Lekang will definitely go on a business trip after he leaves office, so he can't bring his mother with him, can he?

At this time, it was spring, the spring was bright, the green trees were budding, and the flowers were in full bloom. Although the scenery was good, the people were sleepy. Gu Lekang and his party slowly rushed to the capital. When they arrived at the city gate, they found that there was a long line the way.

  There have always been many people coming to Beijing, but there are few so many. Gu Lekang couldn't help but lift the curtain and ask, "Why is it so lively?"

Erxi got out of the car and went to inquire, and came back after a while to report: "Fourth Master, the Long Live Festival is coming soon, and all countries have sent envoys to congratulate them. Along with the envoys, there are also business travelers from various countries and merchants from Great Chu. They also took the opportunity to take the goods to Beijing, and even the people in the suburbs of Beijing picked their own vegetables and sold them in Beijing."

  Longevity Festival in the capital, security has been tightened, and inspections are much more careful, plus so many people flocking here, the queue will naturally be longer.

  Gu Lekang nodded, put down the curtain and smiled with his wife: "I'm so confused when I'm on the road, I forgot about the Long Live Festival."

Fang Shi, who was cutting apples for his grandson, gave his grandson a hand and said dumbly: "Long live festival? When the long live festival arrives, the master cannot enter the palace, he must be going out to drink again, and he has to ask Mammy Fang to prepare sober soup for him. "

   Gu Lekang smiled when he heard the words, reached out and took the knife in her hand, patted her palm and said, "Mother, my son has stopped drinking."

Fang Shi turned his head to look at him blankly, his eyes focused on his face for a while, and after a long time he showed a smile: "Master is back? Long live festival is coming, do you want to paint? What about your painting skills?"

  Gu Lekang smiled and replied softly, "Okay, let's go home."

   Mr. Fang became happy and began to whisper with his eyes lowered. Mrs. Gu Su sat so close that she couldn't hear what she was saying.

   She couldn't help but glanced at her husband, reached out to hold his hand, and looked at him comfortably.

  Gu Lekang patted her hand and smiled at her. He was satisfied with his mother. At least she was just trapped in her own world, instead of forcing others to accept his world like her father, thus hurting others.
