84 The continuation is not in order

What if I want to get married, but I don't have a candidate to marry?

Gu Qian had a headache, sat in the study for a long time, and waited for his wife to send someone to call him, then put down the book in his hand and went to the backyard.

The former father-in-law and mother-in-law have already left, Gu Qian guessed correctly, these two people really brought their niece Xue Rouniang over, and they wanted to let Gu Qian deepen their impression when they saw him, but this son-in-law is no longer the stunned young man he was five years ago, he didn't show up, and the wishful thinking of Master Xue and his wife naturally fell through.

Why did Xue Yang complain in the ears of Master Xue that he couldn't hear him, anyway, he is now a fourth-grade official of the imperial court, a mother-in-law who continues the strings, or a stepmother who has a lot of dirt with Xue Yuniang, even if she is neglected, what can she do? After all, Xue Yuniang has been dead for five years, and the connection between the Xue family and the Gu family is already very weak, if the outside world knows that the son-in-law does not attach as much importance to the Xue family as they boast, then the life of the Xue family relying on the son-in-law's fox and fake tiger power will be sad.

Slowly came to the backyard, and as soon as I entered the house, I saw the old lady sitting on the Luohan couch by the window and closing her eyes to recuperate.

"Mother. Gu Qian entered the house and called in a low voice.

"Kuan'er is here?" Old Madam Gu opened her eyes and rubbed her eyebrows a little tiredly, "Your father-in-law, they are already gone." ”

"Kuan'er is not filial, and he has caused trouble for his mother. ”

"What are you talking about," Old Madam Gu smiled, and the gloom between her eyebrows also dissipated a lot, "Who can't see what the Xue family has in mind, I didn't care about him before, but I didn't care about him to see Yu Niang's face, but now Yu Niang is long gone, this family can move around if they want to, and if they don't want to move around, it's just a matter of colding him." ”

Gu Qian nodded, and said with some hesitation, "It's just that my family affairs are always worried about by them, and it's not a solution." ”

"What's the matter? The day before yesterday, I said that I didn't want to continue the strings, but today my attitude has loosened?"

was blushed by the old lady's teasing gaze, and Gu Qian said uncomfortably, "Mother, don't laugh at me." ”

"I know that you are thin-skinned, but this marriage event can't be sloppy, you haven't returned home for a few years, and the few families that my mother was optimistic about before have not succeeded, even if you want to draw a clear line with the Xue family and get married as soon as possible, there is no suitable good candidate. ”

"Mother, I'm not in a hurry. Gu Qian said.

"There must be a charter, you are in the officialdom, everything must be cautious, before in Datong, it is just that, now I want to go to Taizhou to take office, I heard that Jiangsu and Zhejiang are a first-class rich township, and there are strict party people to control, in case someone takes your marriage to make a fuss, but it will be troublesome." ”

Gu Qian's heart sank when he heard this, it seemed that his wife was much more thoughtful than him, "Then this candidate can only be found in Taihu County?"

"It's not limited here, as long as the character is good, the rest is okay. "After all, Xu Xian is not a new marriage, so you should lower your eyes appropriately.

"Then Lao Niang will have to worry a lot. ”

The two reached a consensus, and the old lady went to study Gu Qian's candidate for continuation, while Gu Qian, who was worried, went back to the front yard and found Brother Tiger to play with him.

"Dad, is my grandfather gone?" Brother Tiger was playing in the yard with a small whip and a spinning top, because he was thinking about it, even if he was playing, he seemed absent-minded.

"Well, it's gone. Gu Qian squatted down and touched his head.

"Doesn't Dad like me talking to him?" Grandpa didn't let him go, and Brother Tiger sensitively realized that the relationship between his grandfather's family and his own family really didn't seem to be very good.

"Do you like him?" Gu Qian asked in a low voice.

"I don't know. Brother Hu scratched his head, it was his grandmother who brought him up since he was a child, and his grandfather just walked around during the New Year's holidays, and every time he came over, he would mention that his father would treat him badly when he married his stepmother or that his aunt was the most suitable to marry him to take care of him.

The previous aunt was Xue Runiang, and later changed to Xue Rouniang, even if Brother Hu is young, it is not that he can't think, even if his grandfather coaxes him with good words, he also understands, in the eyes of his grandfather, the person who takes care of him can be changed at any time.

Since the candidates can be changed, how can they prove that they will definitely be good to themselves? In the past, my grandfather said how good Aunt Runiang was to herself, but how could she not come to see her once after she got married?

"Although a gentleman doesn't tell right and wrong behind his back, but Brother Tiger has grown up, and there are some things that Daddy doesn't want to hide from you, I will tell you the past of our family and your grandfather's family, right and wrong, can you judge for yourself?" Gu Qian took Brother Hu'er's hand and whispered while walking slowly in the courtyard.

Modern children are precocious, and ancient children are not far behind, Gu Qian never felt that it was for his good to hide from the child, and as far as his former Yue's family was concerned, he might not be able to do anything, and now telling Brother Hu as it was also made him a little more vigilant.

"So, my mother just passed away, and my grandfather wants my aunt to be my stepmother?" After listening to Gu Qian's narration, Brother Hu'er said in disbelief.

"Well," Gu Qian didn't have the idea of covering up his father-in-law before he was cheap, "This incident was very troublesome at the time, and it was in your mother's mourning hall." ”

"Then my aunt...... "How could that woman still have the face to run in front of her and pretend to be kind and virtuous! Brother Hu felt that his outlook on life was shattered, so he said why his grandmother didn't let him have more contact with the people of his grandfather's family, it turned out that there was such a reason.

"I heard that she is married, I guess she will be settled in the future. ”

Brother Tiger nodded, he hadn't seen his aunt since she got married.

broke the past and crumpled it and told Brother Tiger again, although Brother Tiger is small, it is not that right and wrong are indistinguishable, and his grandfather calculated his father and his mother like that, and Brother Tiger was happy in his heart. The father and son talked for a long time, and the things that were deliberately concealed in the past had a new understanding in Brother Hu'er's mind, and the child's ability to bear it was not weak, and the previous hesitation and suspicion were just because they did not get the right guidance.

"Dad, thank you for telling me this. ”

"We are father and son, how can we not be thankful," Gu Qian scratched Brother Hu'er's nose and said with a smile, "The reason why I tell you this is because your grandfather came to the door and mentioned the matter of your father's continuation, and my father was afraid that you would be defenseless and coaxed by them." But things have to look at two sides, Dad told you this, it's a fact that Dad saw, next time your grandfather comes again, you can also listen to what he has to say. ”

Brother Tiger shook his head and said, "No need, the child understands." ”

Every time my grandfather came, he had to mention that he would let his aunt do his stepmother's business, but his father was afraid that he would be bullied and dragged on for five years and did not remarry, which was sincere and which was false, how could he not see it?

Although he is still a little worried about his father's remarriage, these contacts over time show that his father really puts him at the top of his heart, and he can't hinder his father's happiness because of his selfishness.

After a long talk, the father and son finally had the intimacy that a father and son should have, and seeing that Brother Hu was becoming more and more cheerful under Gu Qian's care, Old Madam Gu also showed a pleased smile on her face.

The matter of the father and son has been solved, but the candidate for the continuation has not yet been settled, with Gu Qian's appearance, in fact, he has no shortage of daughters-in-law, but there are too many people who have come to the door to be matchmakers recently, and they are all talking about some girls from small families, which makes Mrs. Gu dissatisfied.

I married Xue Yuniang before because the two families had a marriage contract, Xue Yuniang had a hard time, Gu Qian had no career, and the two supported each other, but they were also happy. But now that Gu Qian is already a fourth-grade official, Taizhou is a wealthy place in the south of the Yangtze River, and there will be a lot of entertainment in the future, and ordinary girls may not be qualified for this role.

"How is this good?" Old Madam Gu looked at the information of the girls left by the matchmakers, and she was also a little embarrassed.

"Mother, since there is no suitable candidate, forget it. Although he also knew that he should have a daughter-in-law, but he didn't even know what the girl looked like to get married, Gu Qian also felt a little embarrassed in his heart, his age was really not small in ancient times, but he was not too old in modern times, so Gu Qian was relieved to drag it down.

Because Gu Qian's marriage could not be decided for a long time, the old lady Gu was a little depressed, Gu Qian was relieved a few times, but it made the old lady feel more guilty, and in desperation, Gu Qian decided to go on the road in advance, only hoping that the different scenery on the road could make the old lady happy.

Knowing that he was going to follow his father to Taizhou to take up his post, Brother Hu was excited and didn't sleep well for two days, and now the relationship between father and son is different from the past, Brother Hu is now getting along with Gu Qian with a lot less restraint and a little more lively.

"Dad, Dad, I heard Gu An say that we are going to take a very big boat this time, right?" Brother Hu'er's eyes were shining, and he kept pulling Gu Qian to ask this and that.

Amused by his fairy tales, Gu Qian asked, "How big is it?"

"That's it, that's it...... The kind of big that can't be imagined. Brother Tiger opened his arms and compared the kind of "big" he could describe.

"Haha," Gu Qian rubbed his head and said with a smile, "It's not that exaggerated, this time we are going down the river, taking a river boat, and when we have the opportunity to go to the beach in the future, you will see a sea boat bigger than the river boat." ”

"Can we see the sea too?"

"Yes," Gu Qian looked at Brother Hu'er's excited little eyes and sighed silently, "If the world is peaceful, how can you not see it." ”

The coastal area of Taizhou is also a heavy place for anti-Japanese warfare, so naturally there are indispensable sea ships for war, but now the Japanese are rampant, not only rampant on the sea, but also often go to the land to burn, kill and loot, such a dangerous place, where does Gu Qian dare to let Brother Hu run around outside.

Just looking at the child's expectant eyes, the words of exhortation came to his lips and he swallowed silently.

"Go to the backyard and ask your grandmother if we've packed our bags. ”

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away. Brother Tiger ran away, and he couldn't wait to show his grandmother the ship that his father had said.

The child ran away happily, leaving a smile all the way, Gu Qian stood in place with his hands behind his back, but his mind gradually became heavy, although he was not a liberal arts student, but he also knew some of the history of the ancients' resistance to the Japanese, thinking of the whirlpool he was about to jump into, Gu Qian smiled bitterly, and his expression became more and more determined.

Not for the family and country, not for the big plan, just for the old mother and child behind him, and he must not lose.
