Follow-up (twenty-eighth) Thunderbolt

Just when Gu Guo was painfully recalling the past, Gu Xuefei suddenly pushed her away, rushed to her most trusted big girl Yuzhi, grabbed her arms and said eagerly, "Yuzhi, you tell me that my mother is lying to me, right?" You've always been my big girl, you must know me...... I'm not the stone girl, I'm normal......"

"Calm down, girl, ma'am...... That's right......" Yuzhi said bitterly, seeing her girl's crazy appearance, she was also heartbroken.

"No, no, no, you're all lying to me, you don't want me to marry Lin Dong, you ......" Gu Xuefei refused to believe this fact.

She has grown up normally in the past sixteen years, and it is better to suddenly let her accept this than to kill her with a knife.

"Sister Fei, calm down, you listen to what your mother says......"

"I don't listen, I don't listen to ......"

Gu Guo took away her daughter's hand covering her ears, and when she saw her daughter's unacceptable appearance, she didn't know whether she was right or wrong to hide it for the past sixteen years?

If she had been open and honest from the beginning, her daughter would definitely lose her face, which was a picture she didn't want to see as a mother, which is why she chose not to say it.

Gu Xuefei is still very resistant to her mother's words, and now she can't listen to anything, this news has ruined her life for sixteen years.

With a "snap", Gu Guo raised his hand and slapped his daughter.

Gu Xuefei was stunned by the slap, and her resistance stopped, she watched her mother withdraw the slap with wide eyes and a blank look, pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Sister Fei, have you finally calmed down?" Gu Guo's Road.

Gu Xuefei didn't answer, she didn't know how to face her mother at this time, her mother gave her life and she was grateful, but her mother hid such important news from her, and she was willing to tell her until she became married, which made her not know how to face her mother.

Gu Guo doesn't care what his daughter thinks now, or that she can't take care of her thoughts, the wedding date is imminent, and the preparations that should be made should not be less.

"Sister Fei'er, what your mother is telling you now, you have to listen carefully, you must not tell Lin Dong the news of Shi Nu, and it will not be too late to talk about it when you have a suitable opportunity after you get married in the future......

"Mother, isn't it ridiculous for you to say this? You say that I am a stone girl, not only can I not have children, but I can't even have a cave house, are you a fool to be the champion? Could he not know? ”

Gu Xuefei looked at her mother mockingly, she didn't know what her mother thought? Hiding from Lin Dong? Is this possible?

"Sister Fei, Weiniang knows that you now resent your mother for not telling you the news earlier, but one day you will understand the hard work of Weiniang." Gu Guo didn't mind her daughter's attitude, and when she saw her daughter pinning her head to the side, she slapped her palm with a wry smile, "Come in." ”

Gu Xuefei looked at the curtain curiously, what kind of medicine was sold in her mother's gourd?

I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, a young girl came in with a lotus step, this girl was wearing a dress with rice red points, and her head was combed in the same hanging bun as her, and her eyes were firmly fixed on the other party's face, because this girl had a face very similar to her.

"I've seen my wife and a girl." As soon as the girl came in, she saluted her and Gu Guo.

This voice is at least seventy percent similar to her, and if you don't distinguish it carefully, I'm afraid that you will be deceived.

She suddenly seemed to understand something, and suddenly turned her head to look at her mother, it couldn't be what she thought, right?

Gu Guo didn't care about her daughter's eyes, she stepped forward and pinched the girl's jaw with her hand, forced her head to rise, and stared at her daughter with burning eyes, "Sister Fei, this is a stand-in for your mother, no matter her body shape or face, even her voice looks like you, it must be indistinguishable in the black light, not to mention that Weiniang also asked people to teach her your living habits, in the past two years, she has also learned seventy or eighty percent......"

"Mother, you don't want to ......" Gu Xuefei looked at her mother in disbelief again.

Today, she gave her "surprises" one after another, which already made her unable to resist.

"Yes, Sister Fei'er, as you think, she will have a round house with Lin Dong instead of you and have children, you are in the light, she is in the dark, as long as you cooperate well, Lin Dong will probably not find out for the rest of his life." Gu Guo said, "Moreover, she will never betray you for the rest of her life." ”

For the sake of her daughter, she did not hesitate to be a wicked person, for example, the girl's family in her hands was in her hands, and she did not dare to rebel against this girl. She still remembered that two years ago, she was still distressed because she found out that her daughter was a stone girl, and then when she saw the girl's face, she suddenly brightened.

This girl was born for her own daughter, so she put a lot of thought into this girl.

But I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of what if, so when choosing a son-in-law for her daughter, she and her husband are dedicated to looking at the upstart, and only such a new force is the most suitable for her daughter. They need their daughter's identity to be squeezed into a high-ranking family, and even if they find out about their daughter's deception later, they will choose to remain silent, so that their daughter's marriage will be saved.

When this stand-in gives birth to the child and raises it under the daughter's knee as a concubine, she will find a way to get rid of the girl, so that the daughter can really keep the child by her side, and the husband's family also needs the concubine to act as a faΓ§ade, and in the end she can only suffer this dumb loss.

She has repeatedly conceived all of this, and everything she does is for the sake of her daughter for the rest of her life, even if she loses her husband and wife in the end, at least she can have a child to support her for the elderly.

Gu Xuefei stared at her mother's smug face steadily, no matter how thoughtful her mother was, did she think about her own mood?

She loves Lin Dong, let her watch Lin Dong pamper another woman, or send him to his bed by herself, which is full of deception and lies, is she still worthy of Lin Dong's love?

Or, is she still qualified to love Lin Dong?

"Mother, don't you think this is ripping out your daughter's heart?"

"Then Sister Fei'er, tell Wei Niang, can you have a better way to hide from the world?" Gu Guo knew that her daughter was still young and thin-skinned, and when her daughter-in-law became a mother-in-law in the future, she would understand that she was doing this for her own good.

"Hiding from the world?" Gu Xuefei sneered, "Mother, there is no other way than to hide from the world?" For example, be open and honest......"

"Are you stupid? Open? The first person Lin Dong won't marry is you. Gu Guo reprimanded, "Do you think the relationship between you is so strong? Lin Dong's two sisters are easy to mess with? It's hard for me to stabilize them now, don't give me a thought about it, if this marriage doesn't work out, have you thought about your consequences? ”

In the end, her face became more and more serious, "Or do you want to never marry for the rest of your life?" This is nonsense, how can there be a daughter's family who will not marry for the rest of her life? You're making your parents can't hold their heads up and be human, you know? Sister Fei'er, let me tell you, if you can't marry Lin Dong, don't blame your mother for being ruthless, when the time comes, your mother will choose a son-in-law for you again, and you won't have a choice, in short, you still have to marry. ”

She had to say it ruthlessly, because she was afraid that her daughter would not be able to think about it for a while and make the marriage with Lin Dong ruined, and then it would be so bad that it couldn't be worse.

Gu Xuefei looked at her as if she knew her mother for the first time, although she had been living in the boudoir, she had not seen the world, and she had heard stories of her daughter's family being forced to marry in the past, but she never thought of herself, but now after listening to her mother's words, she understands that the truth in the world is the same.

Even if she wanted to do her best in this family, she couldn't do it, and suddenly she had a sense of sadness in her heart, the world is so big, where is her place?

Even her parents are like this, who else can she trust?

Gu Guo's heart was furious when she was seen by her daughter's gaze, but she refused to show weakness at this time, she understood her daughter's temperament, so she could only be ruthless and let her recognize the facts, and the rest would be easy to do.

She took out a small medicine bottle from her cuff and handed it to her daughter, "Sister Fei'er, you take this medicine, and when you marry Lin Dong, you will secretly let him take it, and then he will be delirious and let you be at your mercy." Seeing that her daughter didn't care, she stuffed the medicine into her daughter's hand in one go, "Sister Fei, after this hurdle, everything will be fine." ”

She hugged her daughter and comforted, "Don't blame your mother for being ruthless, everything for your mother is for your good." ”

Again, she repeated.

Her daughter still looked at her unresponsively, which made her feel as ashamed as if she had stripped naked and stood here, and could no longer face her daughter's gaze, she turned away, taking away the girl who looked like her daughter and the people she had brought with her.

Calm was restored in the warm pavilion, only the dark incense was floating.

Yuzhi looked at her girl cautiously, seeing that she was still standing motionless, she boldly stepped forward to help her girl to sit down on the Luohan bed, and Gu Xuefei had been at her mercy in the process.

She looked at such a girl, and her heart was so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry, "Girl, if you don't feel happy, then cry out, don't bear it, slave maid...... The slave and maid looked uncomfortable......"

Speaking of this, she was already choked up and speechless, from the first day she came to the girl's side, she accompanied her for ten years and months, Gu Xuefei was no longer just the master, but also a family member.

Gu Xuefei still ignored it, she put the medicine bottle in her hand on the low table, hugged her knees and looked at the medicine bottle motionlessly.

Yuzhi didn't know what to say for a while, so she sat silently on the pedal and accompanied her girl, so that her girl was not so lonely.

At the beginning of the lantern, Gu Xuefei didn't know when the next person came in and lit the candle, or if Yuzhi lit it, and her eyes still didn't leave the medicine bottle.

Suddenly, she said faintly, "Yuzhi, when did you know that I had such a broken body?" ”

Yuzhi was stunned, the girl who hadn't spoken for a long time suddenly spoke, she couldn't adapt for a while, and it took a while to figure out what the girl was talking about, "Just last year." ”

The girl is sixteen this year, and she still remembers what happened last year, she has always been the girl's close attendant, how could she not know that the girl never came to the tide. She herself had menstruation two years ago, but the girl's land had not moved, and she did not think about it at first, but then she saw that her wife looked gloomy after examining the girl, and told her not to say anything that was closely related to the growth of her daughter's family, such as menstruation.

She reluctantly responded at that time, and out of concern for the girl, she secretly made up a story to ask the elderly mother-in-law, and later learned that there was a stone girl.

The surprise at that time still remembers that the poor girl of her family let the heavens give the pit in this way, thinking of this, she came to her sadness again, "Girl, don't think so much, we will do what the wife tells us, the slave will help the girl hide from her aunt, and she will definitely be able to hide it......"

"I can hide it from outsiders, but I can't hide it from myself." Gu Xuefei's head was still resting in the crook of her arm, but she turned her head slightly to look at Yuzhi, and said hopefully: "Yuzhi, can I cure this disease?" ”

She suddenly had a whim, maybe she could be cured, so that she and Lin Dong could be a normal couple.

Yuzhi suddenly felt bitter in her mouth, how could she tell her girl this cruel reality?

Gu Xuefei waited for a long time and couldn't wait for the trusted maid to speak, and finally said bitterly, "That's right, if this disease can be cured, my mother would have found someone to cure me, and she wouldn't have come up with such a plan...... "Yuzhi, you didn't say anything to me......"

"Girl, don't be like this, maybe someone will be able to cure the girl in the future......" Yuzhi said against her will to comfort her.

In fact, she had never heard of a stone girl who could be cured, and her wife had found so many doctors back then, but in the end, there was no result.

"Yuzhi, you don't have to comfort me like this anymore." Gu Xuefei said leisurely.

Her last hope was dashed, and the sparkle in her eyes finally dimmed.

Yuzhi suddenly had a bad premonition, "Girl, you ......"

Gu Xuefei put a finger between her lips, and lightly "shh ”

Yuzhi silently bowed and withdrew.

No matter what Gu Xuefei thinks now, everything about the wedding is still in full swing.

Lin Long now runs to her mother's house almost every day, and Ye Zhong's family is ready to marry her younger brother and daughter-in-law in order to make her feel at ease, so she takes over the family affairs so that she can be free, and she is very grateful.

Su Miaojue even said, "Anyway, I'm idle, and my mother-in-law is too busy, so you can send Brother Chen and Brother Guang to me, just to be with my two children." ”

It's good that other people's younger siblings don't fall into the well, and it's just that her own younger siblings can think about her like this, and she is naturally grateful.

After all, Lin Dong's time to get married is too short, and it is really impossible to go through all the red tape in such a short period of time, and the wedding has to be beautiful.

In the Lin Mansion, on this day, Lin Long was so tired that she was paralyzed on the Luohan bed, and seeing that Lin Lushi was still busy, she hurriedly said, "Erniang, take a break, don't be tired, you are going to be a mother-in-law that day." ”

As soon as he heard the word mother-in-law, Lin Lushi couldn't hide his happiness, "It is estimated that by this time next year, I will be able to be a grandmother and hold my grandson." ”

When Lin Long heard this, he also smiled and showed his teeth.

"By the way, tomorrow's Qixi Festival is tomorrow, Erniang is also ready for the festival, anyway, there are still a few days left for the divorce ceremony, and I am not in a hurry to do so."

"That's right, you see I'm so busy that I forgot about the holiday, Ming'er, don't come back to help, I'm afraid your mother-in-law will have opinions."

Although Ye Zhong has always been easy to speak, and because Lin Long has added six sons to the Ye family, a fool can see that Ye Zhong really loves this daughter-in-law, but she still doesn't want her girl to be criticized.

"What can my mother-in-law say? She has always been easy to talk to, and now she is in charge of family affairs, and the two children are also my younger siblings watching, and I am still ashamed of them. Lin Long said with a smile.

Lin Lu said, "It's still your fate, if you put someone else's powerful mother-in-law and sister-in-law who are calculating, this day will be really sad." ”

Lin Long nodded with a smile.

While the two were talking, Lin Dong lifted the curtain and came in.

"Brother Dong, are you here? Come and sit. Lin Lu's face was full of smiles when he saw Lin Dong.

"It's almost time to be a groom, and you still have to prepare where you should prepare, don't be in a hurry when the time comes." Lin Long said.

Because Lin Qi was pregnant, she didn't let this sister go home to help, and finally got pregnant with a second child, no matter what, she had to be careful, of course, her mother Quan Meihuan was more relieved to look at her.

"I've taken a leave of absence from the Hanlin Academy." Lin Dong said with a smile.

"In a blink of an eye, our brother Dong is also going to be a groom, this day is really fast." Lin Lushi said with emotion, "I still remember what he looked like when he was a child, how did he become an adult in a blink of an eye?" ”

"Erniang, the days are flying by like a white dog." Lin Dong was actually very emotional in his heart.

I still remember when I returned to Suzhou with my uncle, the eldest sister was ruthlessly divorced by her fiancΓ©'s family, and as the only male in the Lin family, he was powerless and could only watch the eldest sister be humiliated, and he didn't want to have that feeling of powerlessness anymore.

When he becomes a family, he is a real adult, and it is time for him to take up this family.

Lin Lushi smiled, "When your daughter-in-law enters the door, I will hand over this tedious housework to her, and Erniang will enjoy Qingfu." ”

She didn't think about fighting with her daughter-in-law for the power of the family, and she would be relieved to hand it over as soon as possible.

Lin Dong stretched out his hand to hold Lin Lu's hand, "Erniang, she told me that she would love you and respect you as much as I do, and you will be our mother in this life." ”

"Brother Dong, with your words, Erniang is willing to die." Lin Lu was suddenly moved to tears.

Lin Long said, "Why do you say such depressing words?" In the future, it is your blessing and you deserve to be filial to you, Erniang, we are a family. ”

"Yes, family." Lin Lu clan clasped Lin Dong's hand with his backhand, and then reached out to clasp Lin Long's hand.

Compared with her own mother's family, who only knew how to benefit all day long, this is not a biological child is more biological, and her life is worth it anyway.

On the Qixi Festival, Lin Long did not run to his mother's house, but prepared all the affairs for the festival in the Xiangyang Marquis Mansion, and of course there was a palace banquet in the evening, which was a lot of busy things.

Lin Dong greeted Gu Jing early in the morning, preparing to ask Gu Xuefei to go out of the house to see the lanterns that night.

Gu Jing was naturally willing to help with this, he was a man, so he could naturally see Lin Dong's attention and love for his sister.

It's just that when he stepped into Gu Xuefei's boudoir, he thought he would see a busy scene, but this boudoir was filled with a death-like silence that was difficult to dissolve.

His sister, on the other hand, was sitting on the Luohan bed with her knees bent, staring at the blue and white porcelain medicine bottle on the table, and her focused eyes made him embarrassed to disturb for a while.

After a long time, he found that his sister didn't mean to look back at him at all, so he coughed lightly, "Little sister." ”

Gu Xuefei seemed to have just noticed that her brother was coming, and turned her head to look at him, and only after a long time did she make a hoarse voice, "Brother, you are here." ”

"What are you looking at? What is it? ”

Gu Jing stretched out his hand to grab the medicine bottle on the low table and take a closer look, but Gu Xuefei quickly grabbed it and stuffed it under his sleeve, "It's nothing." ”

"Are you feeling unwell?" Gu Jing reached out and touched his sister's forehead with concern, "This is about to get married, you have to pay attention to your body." ”

After all, it was his daughter's family, and he didn't want to ask too much, even though he was her brother.

"I know." Gu Xuefei looked up and smiled at her brother.

"By the way, I have good news for you." Gu Jing leaned into her ear and whispered Lin Dong asking her to go see the lanterns tonight, "Are you going?" ”

A smile appeared on Gu Xuefei's face, "I'm going." ”

She still wants to see him, and for her now, she doesn't care too much about the reputation or anything.

"Okay, get ready, I'll pick you up in the evening." Gu Jing touched his sister's head and quipped: "Little sister, you have to cheer up, otherwise I will think that you are not satisfied with this marriage, and it will be bad." ”

"What are you going to do? Teach him another lesson? Gu Xuefei smiled and put her head in her brother's arms, not letting him see her smile that was more ugly than crying.

Gu Jing didn't doubt him, and his big hand was still stroking her soft hair, "Why not?" If he treats you badly, my brother will really do it again, even if he is taught a lesson by the Lin sisters again. ”

"Brother, you're so nice." Gu Xuefei said suddenly, coming out of her brother's arms, she looked directly into her brother's eyes, "Brother, you promise me not to trouble him in the future no matter what, you promise me, okay?" ”

Gu Jing reached out and scratched the bridge of her pretty nose, "What?" Before he got married, he was devoted to him? ”

"Girls are outgoing, don't you know?" Gu Xuefei covered her mouth and smiled.

"I can't tell you, you go and dress up and go out together at night."

Gu Jing shook his head and turned to leave.

He didn't know that Gu Xuefei's smile faded cleanly when he turned around.

After being stunned for a while, Gu Xuefei called Yuzhi in, "Pick out the most beautiful clothes for me, you want the best looks." Finally, she emphasized.

Yuzhi felt a little frightened, "Girl? ”

"I'm going to go see the lanterns with Master Champion tonight." Gu Xuefei said happily.

Yuzhi saw Gu Xuefei smile, and laughed as well, "Yes, girl." ”

She led the other big girls to rummage through the cabinets, Gu Xuefei took one dress after another and gestured in front of the mirror, "This one is not good-looking, it is too flowery, this one is not good-looking, it is too plain, this one is ...... Yuzhi, find me a nice ......"

Yuzhi felt embarrassed, she rummaged through the things that her girl had always liked, but now she couldn't get the girl's favor no matter which one she wanted, the girl only said that it was good-looking, how did she know which one the girl wanted?

In the end, Gu Xuefei picked out a shirt with light purple dark lines, she felt that this set of clothes made her complexion more beautiful, looking at the flower-like face in the mirror, she reached out and touched the mirror, but it was best to sit down and let Yuzhi comb her hair.

The jewelry was also drawn to her head one by one, and it took a long time for her to decide which set she wanted to wear.

Picked up the rouge water and rice in front of the mirror and smeared it carefully, these are the products of the Jade Skin Fang, she didn't know before, but now she is smearing these rouge water and rice, she suddenly feels that she is so close to Lin Dong.

It seems close enough to be touched by a tentacle.

Night fell quickly, and when Gu Jing saw his sister dressed up, he also learned to whistle from the ruffians on the street, and said, "My sister is so beautiful, if I were Lin Dong, I would definitely be fascinated by you." ”

"Really?" Gu Xuefei spun around in front of her brother.

Gu Jing reached out and took her arm and pulled her into his arms, and said proudly: "Of course." ”

In his eyes, the most beautiful person in the world is naturally his little sister.

Gu Xuefei was smiling, but she felt that she was in the midst of gold and jade, and she was ruined, how could such a dilapidated body be beautiful?

"Brother, let's go." She took her brother's arm affectionately.

Gu Jing muttered, "It's really a girl who is outgoing." ”

Gu Xuefei covered her mouth and smiled and did not respond.

has a brother as a guarantor, even if Gu Guo is unwilling, he still reluctantly nods his head and agrees to his daughter to go out, she sees her daughter's sad appearance in the past few days, it is good to go out for a walk, anyway, the marriage period is not a few days.

"Take care of your sister on the road." She commanded her son.

Gu Jing responded, "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely take care of her when I take my sister out, and this time, she will be accompanied by her husband when she goes out in the future, and I will no longer be a brother." ”

Gu Guo scolded his son, "You talk a lot." Turning her gaze to her daughter, "Sister Fei, don't think so much, you still have your father and mother to fight against everything, you know?" Just go out and have some fun. ”

Gu Xuefei lowered her head and was silent, she knew that her mother had hidden everything from her for her, but she really couldn't face her mother at this time, so she just said "um" in a low voice.

Gu Guo's face was helpless, it seemed that there would be some days to wait for his daughter to restore the old relationship.

Leaving the main courtyard, Gu Jing looked at his sister strangely, "Have you had a conflict with your mother?" ”

"Nope." Gu Xuefei was reluctant to mention this topic at this time, "Brother, it's not too early, let's hurry up." ”

Gu Jing couldn't help but shake his head, and didn't ask any more questions.

Lin Dong had been waiting outside for a long time, although he had a marriage contract, he couldn't come to the door to take other people's daughters out to play, I believe that the old-fashioned Gu Guo clan would not agree.

Finally, after waiting for a long time, he saw the Gu family's carriage arrive, and Gu Jing took the lead.

"Brother Gu." He hurriedly stepped forward to do it.

Gu Jing immediately dismounted and returned the salute, and said with a smile, "Waited for a long time?" ”

"It didn't take long." Lin Dong responded while probing to look at the carriage behind Gu Jing.

Gu Xuefei lifted the carriage curtain without pretentiousness, and when she saw Lin Dong, she smiled at him.

Lin Dong felt that his eyes were bright, even at night, Gu Xuefei was beautiful, or in the eyes of his lover, he just thought she was beautiful.

At the same time, the palace feast began.

Lin Long greeted and talked to a group of noble ladies, but Hongling found her, "County Lord, Niangniang called you over." ”

When the several noble ladies who were talking to Lin Long affectionately heard this, they were envious and jealous of Lin Long's favor and good luck, and they all walked away one after another.

Lin Long followed Hongling to see Su Ziyu, and asked on the way, "What's the matter with my stepmother looking for me?" ”

"The county lord will know when he arrives." Hongling said, leaning closer to Lin Long and whispering, "About the girl of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion." ”

Lin Long's heart jumped, and suddenly she had a bad premonition, it seemed that Su Ziyu's investigation should have results. Now that her brother's wedding date is approaching, the quality of this result directly affects this marriage, and there is something on her mind, and her expression is no longer calm.

When she arrived at the side hall, she saw Su Ziyu waiting for her, and she didn't have time to salute, so she stepped forward anxiously and asked, "Mother-in-law, ...... the girl from the Xuanping Marquis Mansion?"

Su Ziyu knew that she was anxious as soon as she saw Lin Long's expression, so she stretched out her hand to pull her to sit beside her, waved away the other palace people, clasped her hand and said, "Sister Long, don't be excited when you hear what I will say to you later......

"Mother-in-law, hurry up, I'm mentally prepared all the way." Lin Long said, no matter what the result is, she can bear it.

Su Ziyu nodded, and didn't sell Guan Zi again, "Sister Long, the girl in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion really has a problem......

"What's wrong?"

Sure enough, whatever she is afraid of, even if she is really sure to marry Gu Xuefei as her brother-in-law, she still doesn't like her very much, but she really doesn't want her brother to be sad and sad, otherwise she won't compromise and give in.

"She's a stone girl."

As soon as Su Ziyu's words landed without dragging mud and water, Lin Long felt a thunderbolt fall from the sky.
