MTL - Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World-Chapter 688 Fanwai Gu Lekang (3)

  Gu Lekang helped his mother back to the house and stayed with her for a long time before returning to the mourning hall after comforting her.

   It stands to reason that his father died, and his mother should also be in the mourning hall, but she has also become a little crazy in recent years.

  Gu Lekang knew that his father's dead mother was responsible. Although he didn't listen to everything she said to his father, he knew how she seduced him based on the few words and what his father said.

   But he couldn't say anything to blame her. They couldn't tell who was right and who was wrong. The father was wrong. Could it be that the mother was innocent?

  The mother is cruel, how could the father ever be kind?

  Since he can't tell right from wrong, he can only be confused about what is right and only do his filial piety and responsibility.

  There is no perfect way to do things, but it is just deceiving oneself and others, and being able to deceive oneself is also a good thing.

  Gu Lekang came out of the mourning hall and simply used a bowl of side dishes and white porridge, and then he had no appetite and put down the tableware and chopsticks for the servants to clean up.

  Gu Lekang opened the Buddhist scriptures, transcribed word by word, and his heart slowly calmed down. Gu Su took off his coat, glanced at him, and couldn't help but comforted him: "Master, rest early, we will have a wake-up call tomorrow."

  Gu Lekang finished copying this page of the scriptures, and then put down his pen and said, "Go to sleep first, I'll go to the mourning hall to see it later."

  Gu Su couldn't help thinking of the doubts that arose during the day, pursed his lips and said nothing.

  Gu Lekang saw his wife didn't speak for a while, so he couldn't help looking up at her. Seeing her tangled face, he couldn't help but ask with a smile, "What's wrong?"

  Gu Su opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Just a little curious, who is the adult who came up to the mourning hall today, but he is quite sincere, and brought his wife and children with him."

   Gu Jingyun was the only one who brought his wife and children to offer condolences today.

  Gu Lekang gradually put away the smile on his face, rubbed the paper on the table with his fingers, "He is my brother."

"what?"

   Gu Lekang smiled and said with a distant look: "I said when I got married back then that I was the second son in the family, and he was my eldest brother."

  Gu Su's mouth opened wide before he said, "But, I thought he had passed away."

  Gu Lekang raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "Why do you think so?"

Gu Su's head lowered his head and said, "Back then my parents sent people to Beijing to inquire about you. Grandfather said that you are the only child of the third family. In the future, you will inherit the third family of the Gu family, so we all thought..." Thinking that the eldest son was dead, How else would my grandfather say that?

   When Gu Lekang went to the barren land in the southwest to be the county magistrate, he married there. The Su family is not bad in the county. Several generations have been scholars, but the most capable one has also passed the exam, and it is her grandfather.

  The Su family is barely a prominent family in the local area, but they are nothing but that county. They have only heard of the name of Hou's mansion. Back then, Gu Lekang came to the house to ask for a personal relationship, which shocked their family, thinking that the county magistrate wanted to take her as a concubine or something.

   But Gu Lekang explained his origins very clearly, gave them time to check, and sent two servants to lead her second uncle to the Hou's mansion, and asked the elders to betrothed in person. Because Gu Lekang said that he was the second son, they thought he was the concubine, otherwise how could he marry them? But when he arrived in the capital, he realized that he was not only the direct son, but also the only existing child of the three families.

   So both the family and she felt smashed by the pie.

   Moreover, the old marquis also exchanged Geng Tie with them in person, which is considered to have settled the marriage.

   They all thought that the eldest son of the third room was dead, and it was not easy to mention it in front of Gu Lekang, lest he would be sad, and over the years, because of the poor health and mental health of the in-laws, they have been living alone in a yard.

   Except on the 15th day of every month, she rarely sees them, and the servants who went with Hou's residence never mentioned it.

  Gu Su looked at him dully.

  Gu Lekang saw her like this and realized that he had been negligent. He couldn't help but help his forehead and said, "It's my fault, I forgot to tell you this."

  Because he never thought of taking his family back to the capital, he never told his wife this, just wanted to separate his life from the previous one.

   But I didn't expect him to come back now. Since he is back, he has to explain it clearly to his wife, so as not to make her embarrassed.

  Gu Lekang got up, took her hand and walked to the bed, "Forget it, I won't go to the mourning hall tonight, let's rest, I'll tell you about our family."

"He is my eldest brother, but he is no longer from the Hou's residence, but lives in separate clans. You should have heard about him. He is the emperor's teacher, Gu Jingyun, who was named Taifu. ." Gu Lekang asked with a smile, "Is it amazing?"

  Gu Su sighed, "The emperor is so young?"

   "Yeah, I inherited my father's study from my father, but he inherited it from his grandfather's family. People from the Qin family have always been good at reading. They are older than him today, but when they became the prince, they always came to the door to listen to training."

  Gu Su Shi realized something was wrong, she asked in a low voice, "Isn't he from my mother?"

   "Of course not, his mother is from the Runing Qin family."

"Ah," Gu Su snorted softly, "I remember, what my father said, saying that the uncle of the grand master of the dynasty was the elder Qin Ge, and he also said that the elder Qin Ge had no children, so he adopted it from the master of Gu. a child."

  Gu Lekang nodded, "When the Qin family was in trouble, my father and Mrs. Qin parted ways, so my brother went out of the sect not long after he came back."

He didn't want to say more about his parents' right and wrong, but he didn't hide what should be pointed out. He whispered: "Big brother has no good impression of the Hou Mansion, and he doesn't want to be implicated in the Hou Mansion. I will salute when I see them from a distance. Just say hello, no need to come forward."

  Gu Su's mind still didn't understand what he had heard from his father and grandfather, but he was afraid that the Hou family had done something that was sorry for the mother and son.

   She was both amazed and a little distressed in her heart, surprised that the characters in those legendary stories were related to her; she was distressed by what her husband was carrying.

  Gu Su couldn't help reaching out to hold his.

  Gu Lekang patted her hand and said softly, "Go to sleep, ask me if you don't understand anything in the future."

  Gu Su hesitated for a while, but couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "What mother said today..."

Gu Lekang let out a faint sigh, suppressed the choked sob in his throat and said, "Father did something wrong back then, and he regretted it later, but the old friend refused to forgive him, and he couldn't get out of it, so he fell into a demonic barrier. I won't let him in these years. You went to see him because he was not in good spirits and could no longer distinguish the past, present and future, thinking that he was still living before everything happened."

"But this is to erase the existence of my mother and me. I don't care, but my mother can't accept it, so..." So she often stimulated him, and Gu Huaijin was immersed in the previous hallucinations. It's different, but when he wakes up after being stimulated by the Zhao family, he can't help being manic and refuses to admit his current self and current situation.

   His madness got worse.

Gu Lekang held back the tears in his eyes and said, "Actually, they shouldn't live together in such a situation, but my mother has only one son, and her situation in Hou's mansion is not good, and she is abandoned by her husband, if I also give up She, how sad should she be?"

   "Father can't stay in the capital, that will not only cause trouble for the Hou Mansion, but also disturb others, so he will be sent back to his hometown to be taken care of by his servants..."

  Gu Lekang was sent back, but when he went back to see it after a period of time, he found that his father had been neglected by his servants to the point of not taking a bath for half a month, and the food he ate was cold, how could he dare to let him stay there?

   Except for his son, his grandfather hated him, and it was impossible for his two uncles to take care of him when he had a son, so Gu Lekang could only bring him to his post.

   At that time, he had to handle political affairs, take care of his parents, and manage the inner house, and he was going crazy.

   It was only after marrying the Su family that she started to get better. She was able to take care of the house very well. He handled political affairs every day, and when he came back, he went to see his parents to make sure that the servants did not neglect and abuse them.

   In his spare time, he can play the piano and play chess with his wife, or tease the children, or take his parents out to relax.

   He knew that his mother occasionally said something deliberately to stimulate his father, so he deliberately separated them, divided a yard into two, let the servants watch them, and tried not to let them meet.

   He was fine when he came home every day, perhaps because he was afraid that he would harbor grudges, and his mother would never stimulate his father at that time, but when he occasionally went on business, his mother could not help but go to his father, and the servants could not watch him at all.

   So every time he came back from a business trip, his father fell into a frenzy.

   Gu Lekang has also mentioned it to his mother many times, but she always answered sincerely every time.

   But he has been under control for so many years, his mother never overstimulates him, and I don't know what happened recently, but his mother is so hated that he directly seduces him to go on a hunger strike and seek death...

   "The mother is responsible for this, but the father is not innocent. He really wants to die, otherwise he will not starve himself like that."

  Gu Huaijin's health was not good at first, and in addition to the ups and downs in these years, his physical condition dropped sharply.

  If he didn't want to die, he might have lived for several years if he didn't fast, but he went on a hunger strike and lost the will to survive, and his bodily functions were rapidly depleted, so naturally he wouldn't be able to live for a few days.

  Gu Lekang also knew a little bit about medical knowledge, and the doctor made it clear that Gu Huaijin's illness was mainly his own.

   So he couldn't hate his mother, so he could only cover up the matter and not let his grandfather know, otherwise it would be difficult for his mother to live because of his grandfather's dissatisfaction with his mother.

  Gu Lekang patted his wife's shoulder and said, "My mother has never been very happy in her life. Now that my father is gone, I just hope that she will be better in the future."

Gu Su understands that although her husband didn't elaborate, he could only guess based on what he knew. The father-in-law kept thinking about Mrs. Qin, and it was strange that the mother-in-law felt good. hate it.

  Gu Su said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Mr. Xianggong, I will take more children to accompany her in the future. Mother will always be happier when she sees her grandson?"

   Gu Lekang smiled and nodded.

   "By the way, will Taifu Gu come after sunrise?" Gu Su asked cautiously.

   Gu Lekang said with a complicated expression: "It should come, even if he is not related by blood, he is still a branch of the Gu family."

  Gu Su's hand held his hand and said, "I think my sister-in-law seems to be very good at talking. Will I be by her side then?"

   Gu Lekang's expression suddenly became strange, "She is good at talking?"

   He chuckled and shook his head, but after a while, he nodded slightly and said, "That's not wrong, she is really good at talking most of the time."
