The summer in H City came relatively early, and before Futian, the sun was already shining, and the heat wave hit one after another, making people just want to hide in an air-conditioned place.
Bai Yiru has been back for two days, and she hasn't had time to go to her mother's grave in a hurry, and she accompanies Master Gu to purchase every day.
As the saying goes, where there is a father, there must be a son, but in the Hoffman family, there is a grandfather, there must be a grandson. After seeing Gu Dongning, who is picky about all kinds of daily necessities, you know how picky Master Gu is.
The only indicators for these two people to shop are: expensive, good, brand, limited, imported! In short, it doesn't matter how much money you spend, as long as they like it.
Bai Yiru followed behind Master Gu, although he didn't have to do anything, he was too tired to walk, but Master Gu was still in high spirits, energetic and tireless.
Gu Dongning walked beside Bai Yiru, and was specifically responsible for swiping the card for Master Gu, and selecting clothes, cosmetics, accessories and other things for Bai Yiru.
"I can't walk, I'm still downstairs drinking coffee, wait for you to come down." Rather than having to take care of the two little guys, her legs and feet were sore, and she couldn't walk, so she simply sat down in the café on the first floor of the mall to rest.
"What about us?" Gu Jiayi asked Ning Keyan, grandma doesn't go upstairs, which means that he and Gu Qixi can't go up, because no one will care about them after they go up-dad takes care of mom, mom and dad take care of grandpa, grandpa treats grandpa as a servant, everyone is so busy, directly ignore their savings!
"You sit here obediently. Mom is going to rest too. Bai Yiru ordered that the two children were not allowed to go upstairs downstairs, otherwise they would rather not be at ease and have to keep up, but the mother-in-law was indeed very tired and needed to rest. In order to appease the children, she did not go upstairs and stayed to drink with them.
"Yay! Mom is finally going to be with us. Gu Qixi put up his scissor hand and jumped happily.
Every time Gu Dongning was there, he was not willing to give his mother to the two children at all. The two children can't compete with him, although they are used to it, but they are not happy in their hearts after all.
"Then you guys are here, I'll come down to pay." Gu Dongning dropped a sentence and hurriedly walked to the elevator, because the passionate Master Gu had already entered the elevator, and he didn't care whether anyone else followed or not.
"Why is Grandpa more excited than me after returning to H City?" Gu Qixi shook her head, looking incomprehensible, her eyes withdrew from Master Gu's side, and then turned to the waiter, "If I want a cantaloupe-flavored milkshake and cake-" She looked down at the picture on the catalog, picked a good one and pointed at it, "That's it." This strawberry looks so delicious. ”
"Then I want this." Gu Jiayi also picked what he wanted.
"Two rude." Bai Yiru flicked his fingers on Gu Qixi and Gu Jiayi's heads respectively, "The elders are here, why don't you invite the elders first?" Isn't it too selfish to only care about yourself? ”
"Oh. Then the grandparents start first, and come down to the mother. Gu Qixi immediately took the catalog to Ning Keyan and Gu Zhenghao.
Gu Jiayi took another catalog from the desk where no one was there and showed it to Bai Yiru.
"We're together as our own family, so we don't have to mind so much etiquette." Ning Ke said good-naturedly, she loves children, and since she is out to play, she doesn't want to give them too many constraints.
Bai Yiru smiled at her mother-in-law and didn't say anything, everyone loves their children differently. She herself loves these two children, but she still cultivates good habits from their usual words and deeds.
"Yiru, the sky is bright, let's go and sweep your mother's grave. That's the purpose of coming back, but I played around for two days. Waiting for the coffee gap, Ning Yan said to Bai Yiru.
"Hmm. Dong Ning also told me just now, we decided to go tomorrow at noon. In the morning, I'm going to take my grandfather to meet a few chess friends. Bai Yiru helped Master Gu make an appointment with a few chess friends, otherwise he would have no friends here, except for playing around, he would feel bored at home at night.
"Then go at noon, and I'll go with you." Rather smiling shallowly, Bai Yiru thought that things were always thoughtful and meticulous, but it made her worry a lot.
Bai Yiru nodded, after she married Gu Dongning, she had never officially introduced her mother to his family. Mother's cemetery, except for Gu Dongning, no one else knows where it is. This time, everyone is going, so I can give them a good introduction to their mother.
"I have something to do tomorrow at noon, I'm afraid I won't be able to go." Gu Zhenghao, who has always talked little, listened to the chat between Ning Ningyan and Bai Yiru for a while, and then slowly opened his mouth.
"What's the matter with you? Could it be more important than going to see Eru's mother? Rather ask Gu Zhenghao, as a mother-in-law, she has a clear conscience about everything, but she has never asked Bai Yiru's deceased mother, which is also her carelessness, so this time she said that she wanted to sweep the tomb, and she attached great importance to it.
"When I see a friend, people want to entrust me to do something, and it's not good for me not to go." Gu Zhenghao lowered his head and stirred the coffee, and no one could see the love in his lowered eyes.
"Could it be later, or earlier?" Rather looking at the top of Gu Zhenghao's hair, her husband's behavior has been a little weird these days, and she can't figure him out.
Gu Zhenghao raised his head, and was about to say no, when he heard Bai Yiru say: "Mom, it's okay, Dad has something to do, it's the same next time he goes with us." ”
Ning Keyan glanced at Gu Zhenghao, dissatisfied with his attitude, but didn't say anything more at night.
Bai Yiru Waner, her mother-in-law is dedicated to her good, and she also wants everyone in the family to be good to her. She really didn't know what kind of blessing she had cultivated in her life to meet such a good mother-in-law.
She looked at Ning Keyan's good-skinned side face, and secretly wanted to be good to her mother-in-law forever, not to make her angry, and not to let her worry about herself anymore.
The next day.
Morning.
The sun was very good, and the warm breeze brought real coolness, gently and softly slapping Bai Yiru's smiling face.
She first sent Mr. Gu to the park's senior activity center to meet chess friends, these elderly chess enthusiasts she met as a volunteer in college.
Master Gu had a chess friend, so he was naturally very happy, and asked Bai Yiru to go back first, and he had to kill a few games of chess before going back.
Bai Yiru smiled, a group of old children didn't care about anything when they played, she left the driver to wait for Master Gu, took a taxi home by herself, and went to the cemetery with Gu Dongning and them.
Zheng Peipei's current cemetery is the best in H City, and the location is also very good.
"Mom, it's here. There is also a bend ahead. Bai Yiru took Ning Keyan's arm and walked in front.
As he spoke, he had already turned a corner, and the two of them met the eyes of the person standing in front of the tombstone, and the three of them were all shocked.
"Dad!" Bai Yiru let go of Ning Keyan's arm in surprise and looked at Gu Zhenghao, whose face was full of tears, "How do you know here?" Aren't you running out of time, why are you here? You ......" She had too many questions in her heart, but she gradually felt that it was difficult to breathe, she couldn't ask a word, she could only hold two tears, and her wet and blurred eyes flowed between Gu Zhenghao and the photo of Zheng Peipei on the tombstone.
"Ha ......" Ning Yan breathed hard, holding on to a pine tree beside him, and his trembling body was about to lose his footing.
"Mom-" Bai Yiru couldn't wait for Gu Zhenghao's answer, and turned back to look at Ning Keyan, seeing that her mother-in-law's situation was not much better, her heart instantly froze, making her cold as if she had entered the ice and snow, not under the summer sun.
She choked up, her breath was in her throat and she couldn't get out, her face was blue, her lips were white, she was dizzy and unsteady on her feet, and she fell to the ground.
"Dad, Mom, why is that? Why? She kept muttering, "I'm with Dong Ning...... I'm ...... with Dong Ning I, we're brother and sister...... How is this possible?! Whining...... It's not true, it's not! She tugged at her hair in pain and cried.
"Yiru, what's wrong?" Gu Dongning was behind with two children, and before he turned around, he heard Bai Yiru crying, so he didn't even care about the children, so he rushed over, and after seeing Gu Zhenghao, he was also shocked, stunned by Bai Yiru's side, not knowing what to do or what to say.
Ning Keyan suddenly burst into tears, leaning against the trunk of the tree and sitting on the ground, without any image at all. She held her forehead and kept saying, "What a sin! ”
Bai Yiru's crying was heartbreaking, and her eyes were full of pain when she looked at Gu Dongning, and that kind of pain could not be described in words.
She never thought that the man she loved, her husband, was actually her half-brother, and she also had two children with him.
It was a great rebellion, it was incest, it was unacceptable, and she felt disgusting and filthy, and thinking so, she began to vomit, and vomited everything she had eaten for lunch, along with the gastric juices.
Until there was nothing left in her stomach, she was still retching, her face was horribly blue, and her lips were white and frightening.
Almost the moment he got to Bai Yiru's side, Gu Dongning, who guessed what was going on, found his voice in Gu Zhenghao's silence and the crying of Ning Yanyan and Bai Yiru.
"Da Mei, take the child to the car." He ordered Da Mei in a cold voice.
"Good. Good. Master, I'll go now. Da Mei hurriedly pulled Gu Qixi and Gu Jiayi away, she didn't know what was going on, she just felt a little strange, Gu Zhenghao actually came to Bai Yiru's mother's cemetery by himself, and he cried so painfully.
"Woo woo......" Bai Yiru heard Gu Dongning say about the child, her heart was even more uncomfortable, what bad things did she do in her last life, she actually did evil in this life to marry her brother, and in the future, the two children know that their parents are brothers and sisters, they will definitely suffer, they have to bear too much, they will hate her to death." Tanabata, Chiayi, I'm sorry. It's my mother's fault, it's my mother's fault......" As she spoke, she slammed headlong into Zheng Peipei's tombstone.
"Yiru, what are you going to do?" Gu Zhenghao, who was motionless, made a panic and pulled Bai Yiru back.
"Don't pull me, I don't have the face to see everyone, let alone Qixi and Chiayi. Only when I die, they will not know that I am Dong Ning's sister, and if I have done evil deeds against the sky, they will not live in pain and hardship. ”
Bai Yiru continued to pounce on the tombstone, and Gu Zhenghao dragged her desperately.
"You've misunderstood, you'll have to listen to me." His voice was hoarse, and his voice was thick and nasal with tremors.
Rather crying at a loss, as if it was none of his business, he just stared at the three people in front of him blankly.
Gu Dongning was stunned, as if he didn't see Bai Yiru looking for death. He clenched his fists, his heart was like a knife, he loved and hated, and he couldn't convince himself to comfort and persuade Bai Yiru.
"Don't cry! Listen to me! Gu Zhenghao suddenly roared angrily, he also had something in his heart, he had no patience, everyone was crying and crying, standing stupidly, and he didn't listen to what he said at all, so he could only find a way to calm everyone.
When he roared, he let go of Bai Yiru, she fell to the ground, her arm hit the tombstone, she couldn't get up for a long time, she simply didn't get up, she just fell to the ground like that, crying in a low voice.
Ning Keyan's crying was much quieter, not that she was suppressed by Gu Zhenghao, but that she and Bai Yiru were tired of crying, and they didn't have the strength to cry loudly anymore.
She covered her mouth and cried for so long that her hands and feet were numb, and even around her lips were numb. Gu Zhenghao's strange behavior in the past few days finally has a reason to explain, but her heart can't accept it, which can no longer be said to be surprised, but shocking and shocking.
She had imagined thousands of possibilities, but she had never imagined the one in front of her. Her favorite daughter-in-law is actually her daughter, who her husband loves deeply, and her son and daughter-in-law have changed from loving husband and wife to half-brothers and sisters, what a sinful thing!
The good fate I found at the beginning was actually creating evil, and I would rather be cold and heartbroken, and my heart was so uncomfortable that I couldn't speak.
"Don't be cranky, all of you. Eru, she's not my daughter. Gu Zhenghao raised his hand to wipe the tears on his face, and slowly explained, "She is Pepe's daughter, but not mine." ”
As soon as his words came out, the other three people fell silent, and their eyes fell on him.
"Yiru is the child of Pepe and Bai Lixing."
"How can you be sure?" Gu Dongning was stunned for a moment, and opened his mouth to ask Gu Zhenghao.
"From the beginning, I thought that Yiru looked very similar to Pepe, and I suspected that she was my and Pepe's child, so I secretly did a paternity test." When Gu Zhenghao said this, he also felt lucky, otherwise his sin would be really great.
"That-Dad-" Bai Yiru's heart suddenly relaxed, finally she and Gu Dongning were not brother and sister, which was so good that she was a little excited and stammered. "You found out that I wasn't your child, why didn't you find my mother?"
"I don't have anything from your mother to do the identification. I can only make sure that you are not my child, and then I think that you are completely impossible to be Pepe's child, that things will not be such a coincidence, and I have not cared who your mother is. Gu Zhenghao said truthfully, he really regrets that he thought things too absolutely, otherwise he would have found her in his heart a long time ago.
"My mother, is it really someone you loved?" Bai Yiru confirmed with difficulty to Gu Zhenghao.
"Yes. She was the first woman I fell in love with in my life. Gu Zhenghao admitted unabashedly.
Only then did everyone understand why in the cave that day, when Thomas said that Zheng Peipei was dead, Gu Zhenghao would suddenly ask if he was really dead, and he went to stay outside the cave alone, because he was surprised, sad, and sad.
He had to find Zheng Peipei's child, in fact, he wanted to find out if she had given birth to him.
He didn't come to the cemetery with everyone, because he wanted to hide it, but he still didn't break it.
Did "my mother really have a relationship with your ......"?
Bai Yiru was halfway through her words, she really didn't have the courage to ask such a question, so she could only look at Gu Zhenghao with a blank eye, choking and covering her heart.
"Your mother is indeed pregnant with my child, but I don't know if she gave birth or not." Gu Zhenghao knew what Bai Yiru was going to ask, so he directly answered the question she didn't finish.
"How so?" When Bai Yiru heard this, she cried a lot again, it turned out that her mother was really ...... She couldn't accept the sudden truth.
"Pepe was a singer in the dance hall back then, she was beautiful and sang well, I went to listen to it once, and I fell in love with her at first sight. At first, Pepe didn't like me, but he couldn't stand my passionate pursuit and fell in love with me. We love each other very much and are planning to get married. Gu Zhenghao recalled the old things, and the pain in his heart was indescribable.
originally told Zheng Peipei that he wanted to get married, but Master Gu forced him to go back to inherit the position of patriarch of the family, and asked him to marry a girl from a certain family.
He couldn't get married, and he couldn't persuade Master Gu to let him marry a singer, and he was grounded, so he couldn't do anything.
"Before I went back to the family, I knew that Pepe was pregnant, and I said that I would come and pick her up when I went home, but I broke my promise." Gu Zhenghao walked to Zheng Peipei's tombstone and wept bitterly and touched the cold photo, "I don't want to get married, so I will discuss with Ke Yan to help her family's company tide over the difficulties, and let her give me a marriage that has nothing to do with love, because I can't forget Jiì Peipei." ”
"Then you never went back to my mother?" is also a woman, Bai Yiru can't help but sympathize with her mother.
"After getting married, I was forced to deal with the company's affairs, and then I had Dong Ning, but I was very good to me, and because I was always bullied by Dong Ning's grandfather, I forced myself not to think about Peipei, live with Ke Ning with peace of mind, and take care of Dong Ning when he grew up, so I didn't go to look for it." Gu Zhenghao sighed, regretting it beyond measure, "If I had gone back to find it a few years earlier, maybe Pepe would not have married Bai Lixing, and she would not have completely lost her news, and she didn't even know that she had died." ”
"Mom. Mom ......" Bai Yiru hugged Zheng Peipei's tombstone and cried, she couldn't be righteous Ling Ran at the moment, she was selfish, selfish heartache Mother was deceived by the man she loved.
