Chapter 175 Confession

Uncle Quan did not take Guo Zerong to the back garden, but to the prince's study. When Guo Zerong entered the room, he saw his father standing in front of an enlarged black-and-white photograph in contemplation. So he stood behind him and waited quietly. He knew the picture. I also know everyone in that photo, and I also know the love-hate entanglement between my father and the person in this photo.

There are a total of six people in this photo, six young people full of youth. Two girls stood in the front and four boys in the back, all dressed in military uniforms. Behind them is the Eiffel Tower in Tokyo, the capital of Toyi Province. It was a group photo with a few friends after my father went to participate in the rebellion in Dongyi Province 60 years ago, and there were still traces of gunsmoke on the iron tower behind him. The people in the photo later became influential figures in Chinese politics. On the left is the former head of the Song family, Song Zixiang, who is one year younger than his father. He stretched out a hand and put it on his father's shoulder, neither of them thought at that time, and then the two of them were like enemies of life and death, and they never got along with each other! Leaning on his father was Emperor Renzong Xiao Luo, who had already passed away, and standing with Emperor Renzong on the far right was a man named Guan Feiyang, whom he had never seen before. The two women standing in front, the petite woman on the left, with a somewhat similar face to Yuqing, is his mother, who has been dead for ten years, and his father met his mother because of that counterinsurgency, but he also became a lifelong enemy because of his mother and Song Zixiang of the Song family. Standing arm in arm with her mother is the Queen Mother, who is still alive now, and is now in her seventies and eighties. The father had a grudge with the Song family because of his mother, and Emperor Renzong lost contact with Guan Feiyang because of the empress dowager, fate seemed to have warned them when they took that photo, there really is no perfect thing in this world.

It's not the first time he's seen this photo, and every time his father sees it, he locks it back in the box, and today he doesn't know how his father remembered to take it out. While his father was still immersed in the memories, he once again admired the young man in the photo. When he saw the young Emperor Renzong, he suddenly noticed that there was one that seemed to be very similar to the Emperor Renzong in this photo. After filtering it in his mind, he was shocked to find that this person turned out to be Xiao Wu he had just met. If Xiao Wu wears a military uniform, it will be more like it! Could it be that Xiao Wu really is?

In Guo Zerong's excitement, General Guo turned around, saw the excitement on his son's face, and sighed. His son is good for everything else, but he values the power of power too much, which makes him take family background too seriously, so that he ignores many elite talents from civilian backgrounds. Most of the righteousness is a dog slaughterer, and I think Taizu was just a commoner back then.

"Rong'er, what do you see?"

Seeing his son's happy expression, Guo Wangye guessed that his delicate son was only afraid that he could see something from this photo! Today, he was so excited that he almost let Xiao Wu enter the third gate, but I was afraid that many families were guessing the identity of this child.

"Father, that Xiao Wu, didn't you say that the child was ...... at that time?"

Guo Zerong asked cautiously, his eyes flashing with joy.

"Alas, there are some things that are not yet the time to reveal the truth, so keep what you think in your heart and don't tell anyone. There are some things that Dad can't tell you too much, this matter is too mysterious. It involves Shui'er's child's grandfather, so none of us dare to talk nonsense. ”

"Shui'er's grandfather, Master Qin?"

As soon as he heard that Master Qin was involved, Guo Zerong suddenly didn't dare to think about it. Although Master Qin has already passed away, the unbelievable legends left by his old man have made many people change color when they talk about him. It was an unpredictable legend. When his father brought Shui'er home from the Qin family, he didn't want to accept it, but his father said that it was Master Qin's personal confession, and said that Shui'er would bring good luck to the Guo family, so he accepted the child with peace of mind. And according to Master Qin's explanation, he followed his wife's surname Zhou. Master Qin valued him more in his heart than he did for his father.

Of course, he also noticed what his father said about us, but he wisely did not ask who "we" were. He knew that even if he asked, his father would not tell him.

"Now that you know the identity of that child, what are you going to do with him and Yuqing?"

Hearing this father's words, Guo Zerong looked at his father with some puzzlement, do you still need to think about this? That must be agreed, it would be better if you could get married earlier, of course, if you can't, then you have to book the family affair.

"If Xiao Wu proposes it, then give the two of them a family affair first. And then make a good day for them to get married. Father, do you see?"

After talking about his inner plan, Guo Zerong looked at his father with some expectation. I hope that my father can agree to this, then Xiao Wu will no longer be able to run, and the future of the Guo family will also be brilliant.

“…… Whether it is engaged or married, it is not suitable now, at least three more years, three years later...... Maybe you don't have to worry about it so much. Alas, let it be as it bes now!"

General Guo sighed, explained to his son his own handling of this matter, looked at his son's puzzled eyes, and said faintly:

"That kid, there is a marriage contract with Shui'er!"

"What !!!"

Guo Zerong was so surprised that he almost didn't stop, what was going on? Why did he go to the water again.

"Do you know why I told you not to interfere in Shui'er's life in the first place? Only then will she be able to find her home on her own. ”

This kind of mysterious thing made Guo Zerong's scalp tingle when he heard it, but now he doesn't care about these, he cares about Qing'er.

"But what should Qing'er do, do you want the two sisters to turn against each other!"

"The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, and they solve their own affairs. Wait another three years, and in three years, everything will be clear. What you have to do now is to reject Xiao Wu's marriage proposal, but not to stop their relationship. ”

"But what am I supposed to tell them?"

"Stupid! You won't make up a reason, such as a disagreement, and the engagement now will bring disaster, and wait until three years later. You won't make up such a reason, and you want me to teach you! How do you mix up as a lieutenant general!"

The old general was so angry that he threw up his beard, and scolded Guo Zerong so much that he bowed his head and was silent, and he was also annoyed with himself. It's really confusing. It's just that if you don't get engaged now, it's not that you don't let them socialize, you can deal with it with any reason. I can't complain that my father would be so angry.

……………………………………………………………………………………………

After Guo Zerong left, Xiao Wu sat on the sofa for a while, and was thinking about turning around, when he suddenly heard a noisy sound outside the door, and before he could stand up and take a look, a girl of about twenty jumped in from outside the door,

"There's a guy here. ”

The girl came in and saw someone in the living room, and looked at Xiao Wu in surprise, Xiao Wu didn't know who it was, and it was not easy to greet her, so she could only be silent. Fortunately, at this time, another person came in from outside the door, a person that Xiao Wu was familiar with.

"Huh, brother-in-law, why are you here?"

A crisp voice sounded, and Xiao Wu didn't need to look at people to know who was coming. There was no one else but that quirky girl.

"Huh, Ling'er, do you know this person, what brother-in-law?"

The girl who came first saw that Gu Ling knew her, grabbed her and asked. Gu Ling glanced at Xiao Wu, hesitating whether to tell her or not.

"What's wrong?Ling'er, didn't you call him brother-in-law just now? Why, don't you want to tell Sister Ting?"

Seeing Ling'er's embarrassed expression, the girl was unhappy, Xiao Wuyi couldn't do it, he couldn't let Gu Ling do it!

"Hello, my name is Xiao Wu, and I am Yuqing's boyfriend. ”

"What? You're second cousin's boyfriend?"

The girl screamed in surprise, the second cousin who was beautiful but had never looked for a boyfriend actually had a boyfriend? Well, she looks pretty good, but she can barely match her second cousin in terms of appearance, but I don't know which family it is.

"Are you really the second cousin's boyfriend?"

As if she couldn't believe it, the girl asked again, and before Xiao Wu could answer, he heard that someone had already answered for him at the door.

"What's the matter? Xiaoting dares to take care of my business now?"

It was Yuqing who turned back from the outside because she was worried about the outcome of Xiao Wu's conversation with her father.

"No, second cousin, I'm not afraid that someone will pretend to be your boyfriend? How dare I mind your business! ”

Hearing the voice of the second cousin coming from outside, this girl named Xiaoting hurriedly defended, for fear that Yuqing would misunderstand. It seems that Yuqing is still very majestic in front of these younger brothers and sisters. Gu Ling on the side was secretly laughing, but Xiao Ting saw it, and angrily stepped forward to catch her, while Gu Ling hid behind Xiao Wu, shouting while hiding:

"Second brother-in-law, help, this female madman is going to kill someone!"

In the end, she was familiar with Xiao Wu, Xiao Ting was not embarrassed to come to Xiao Wu's side to arrest people, but just stood aside and shouted at Gu Ling. Guo Yuqing walked to Xiao Wu's side, dragged Gu Ling out from behind Xiao Wu, and threw it to Xiao Ting. Then he asked softly in Xiao Wu's ear:

"How's the talk? Where's my dad?"

"Hmm. Very pleasant. Uncle was just called away by Uncle Quan, saying that your grandfather called him over. ”

Xiao Wu grabbed Yuqing's hand and squeezed it, and said softly. At this moment, the two girls were already fighting on the sofa. Gu Zhanjun also accompanied a slender young man to walk in, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw two girls making noise on the sofa.

"You two crazy girls, be careful that you won't let you eat today.

After speaking, he saw Xiao Wu standing on the side, and pulled the young man beside him and walked over.

"Come on, let me introduce you to you, this is Li Qing, the eldest of my aunt's family, that crazy girl is called Li Ting, and she is the second. This is your second cousin-in-law, Xiao Wu. ”

After the introduction, he smiled at Xiao Wu.

After listening to Gu Zhanjun's introduction, Xiao Ting on the sofa stopped making trouble, walked next to his brother, and called Xiao Wusheng's second cousin-in-law with her brother. At this time, Xiao Ting had a very ladylike demeanor, which made Xiao Wu guess that their family background must not be ordinary.

After getting to know each other, Xiao Wu picked out a few small gifts from the gifts next to them and gave them to them, and several people sat on the sofa and chatted.
