Chapter 8: Father
She has been married for more than ten years, but she only gave birth to Gu Chongyang's daughter, who is naturally well cared for and pampered like flesh in her heart. This time, it made her daughter suffer a lot. First he was tired from the journey, he got motion sickness, and then he fell ill. My daughter just happened to be uncomfortable and couldn't take care of her all the time.
is away from her daughter's familiar place, she is scared, so she is so attached to herself.
Nan Nan has always been delicate and cheerful, if she wasn't really scared in her heart, she would never cry so sadly.
Speaking of which, it's all because of my mother's bad and didn't take good care of her.
The more my mother thought about it, the more distressed she became, and her tone was much softer: "Okay, your father went to ask for a doctor early in the morning, don't worry, my mother will get better soon." ”
Gu Chongyang lay in his mother's arms, and stopped talking, in fact, there is no need to ask a doctor, I am a doctor, and I can cure your illness.
But she didn't say anything.
"Why did my father go for so long?" Gu Chongyang said sullenly: "It's all afternoon." ”
Speaking of his father, Gu Chongyang couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.
His father was a concubine of the Hou Mansion, but he studied hard and was admitted to the Jinshi. was not raised crookedly like other Hou Fu concubines, nor did he become a son of a man who walked chickens and dogs. He relied on his ability to obtain an official position, and all the way to the rank of one of Xiao Jiuqing's national princes. When others mention their father, there are always a lot of compliments. She is also proud to have such a father in her heart.
But she has a lot of resentment towards her father. resented his indifference to him after his mother's death, and let his stepmother torture him.
"You little conscienceless!" The mother was half complaining and half spoiling: "Your father is an honest official, and his sleeves are clean, and what he is most afraid of is causing trouble to others." Along the way, we neither used the name of the Marquis of Qingyang Mansion, nor did we use your father's official identity to find convenience. But your father went to visit the governor of Cangzhou Mansion for you, so he invited Dr. Li Xingchun, a famous doctor from Cangzhou Prefecture, to treat you. If not, how can you get better so quickly? ”
It seems that this matter is true, in her previous life, Ge Bilian had told outsiders about this matter more than once after she entered the door. also said that because her father loved her, she didn't dare to discipline herself strictly, and at this time, someone would comfort Ge Bilian and say that it was difficult to be a stepmother or something like that.
At that time, Gu Chongyang only felt that Ge Bilian had a honey-bellied sword and sinister intentions, and deliberately made up nonsense to deceive everyone.
But after listening to his mother's words at this moment, Gu Chongyang felt that maybe his father really loved him.
Perhaps, he was coaxed by his stepmother Ge Bilian, so he turned a blind eye to himself.
Gu Chongyang threw away the messy thoughts in his heart and asked his mother: "Since Dr. Li Xingchun's medical skills are so good, why don't you let him help his mother see a doctor?" ”
"Silly boy!" Listening to her words, her mother couldn't help but explain: "Dr. Li Xingchun is the former minister of Zhishi's former Tai Hospital, but not everyone is qualified to ask him to see a doctor. Because he happened to be drinking wine in Botou Town, your father was able to invite him. He checked your pulse and prescribed a prescription and went back, and at that time I was just coughing, not very uncomfortable. I thought it would be good to rest, but I didn't expect the illness to get worse. Your father went to invite him in the morning, only to know that he had already returned to Cangzhou County, so your father had to go to Cangzhou County to invite him in person. Guessing the time, it's almost time to be back. ”
After listening to his mother's words, Gu Chongyang's heart gradually returned to his stomach.
Since Dr. Li Xingchun has been the chief of the Tai Hospital, he should be a person with real talent and learning. His medical skills must be very skillful, and his mother's illness should be fine.
Although she knew how to heal, she hadn't figured out what to tell her mother yet. Acting rashly will only arouse the suspicion of the mother.
Although she has heard that there is such a thing as borrowing a corpse to return a soul in this world, she has never heard that she can return her soul to herself, and she is still going back in time, back to her childhood.
The fact that he was reborn is too absurd. If it weren't for her own personal experience, she would never have believed it when others told her.
Although her mother loved her, she didn't want her mother to be afraid. You have to find an appropriate opportunity to talk to your mother slowly.
Mama Wu walked in with a tray, and when she saw Gu Chongyang, she said angrily: "Miss, why are you running around, but you are scared of Mama." ”
Gu Chongyang stood up with an apologetic smile on his face: "Mama, I'm sorry, it's me who is wrong." ”
Mama Wu was surprised and happy, and she didn't know where to put her excited hands, so she sighed for a long time: "Miss has grown up, Madame doesn't have to worry about it in the future." ”
Gu Chongyang turned his head to look at his mother, who had a pleased smile on her face, and looked at her with a little pride in her eyes.
Gu Chongyang's eyes couldn't help but sour, he didn't do anything, but he just admitted his mistake, and his mother was so happy...... How naughty I must have been before, my mother must have put a lot of effort into it.
"Mother, I've grown up." Gu Chongyang straightened his chest and said, "I will be obedient and obedient in the future, and I will be filial to you." ”
When the mother heard this, her face was even more joyful, and she was about to speak, when she heard the voice of an adult man outside.
"We Chongyang grew up, only filial piety to our mother, not to our father?"
The mother was busy getting up, but the person who came had already walked a few steps to the side of the bed and gently pressed the mother's shoulder: "Husband and wife, why are you so angry?" There are no outsiders here, don't get up, just lie down. ”
The voice is very gentle.
Mother didn't expect her father to make such a move in front of so many people, so she couldn't help blushing slightly, and her expression was a little evasive.
Seeing her daughter looking at the two of them without saying a word, her mother became more and more uncomfortable, and hurriedly pushed Gu Chongyang: "Didn't you still think about your father just now?" Why is it stupid to see my father at this moment? Say hello to my father. ”
"I've seen my father." Gu Chongyang saluted his father indifferently, his demeanor stiff, and his eyes were obscure.
The father frowned and said worriedly, "Didn't you say that the fever has subsided?" Why are you still so listless? ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch Gu Chongyang's forehead.
Gu Chongyang stepped back and sat on the edge of his mother's bed.
The father's hand was empty, and the mother hurriedly said: "This child, there is something wrong with today's love." ”
Mama Wu hurriedly explained: "It's a collision, the slave has already sent it, and it will be fine tomorrow." ”
But her father walked up to Gu Chongyang indifferently and asked her with a smile, "Are you angry with your father?" I'm going to get a doctor for your mother, not to go out and play without you. I bought a golden silk jujube, and I'll let Mama Wu bring it to you later. ”
The golden silk jujube of Cangzhou Mansion is famous all over the country.
She knew that her father was coaxing her like an angry child.
Gu Chongyang raised his head and met his father's smiling eyes.
An elegant and mature adult man, with a gentle appearance and an amiable smile, this is not at all the same as what he remembers.
As far back as she can remember, her father rarely spoke to her. Occasionally, when he said a few words, he also looked expressionless. He looked into his eyes, indifferent and calm, as if he were looking at an unrelated person.
The only time he was in love was when his stepmother accused her of stealing. He didn't listen to her explanation at all, not only did he not ask the reason, but he slapped her like thunder and told her to kneel in the ancestral hall.
Gu Chongyang will never forget the way he looked at him at that time, as if she was a stain on his body, which made him ashamed, and he hated to wipe it off and never be known.
The disgust in that look pierced her heart.
Since then, she has been a stranger to her father.
The man in front of him overlapped with the person in his memory, and Gu Chongyang was confused for a moment, what kind of person was his father.
Amiable or indifferent and ruthless, which one is his true face?
Gu Chongyang was still thinking about it, but her father had patted her head kindly, and said to her mother: "Old Doctor Li is already here, so I will invite him in." By the way, let him take a look at Chongyang again. I'm afraid this kid isn't good yet. ”
The mother glanced at Chongyang worriedly and nodded silently.
Doctor Li Xingchun is an old man in his sixties, with a straight body and a stern expression.
is somewhat similar to Gu Chongyang's master, Gu Chongyang has a good impression when he sees it.
Seeing Gu Chongyang staring at him, Doctor Li Xingchun nodded and said, "It seems that Miss is already safe." ”
"It's all right." Gu Chongyang curtsied and said politely: "Thank you for your wonderful rejuvenation, I can recover from a serious illness." ”
These two sentences are not like what a ten-year-old child can say, and the mother was very shocked when she heard this, and her eyes stared at Gu Chongyang for a while.
But my father didn't notice it.
Doctor Li thought that Gu Chongyang said this to be taught by adults, and nodded with satisfaction: "The hairpin in the mansion is a family, and Lord Gu is from a Jinshi, and the young lady's upbringing is very good, and she deserves to be a beautiful girl." ”
The father was modest with a bit of pride: "The child's family is not sensible, but it is just a parrot." ”
He thought it was taught by his mother. When my mother heard this, she thought it was taught by her father, and the look of surprise on her face gradually faded.
Gu Chongyang was unaware of this.
After some greetings and a few questions, Dr. Li began to give his mother a pulse.
"This is caused by negligent maintenance on the road, suffering from wind chill, and the cold air entering the lungs." Doctor Li groaned and said, "It's not a major symptom, I'll prescribe a prescription to dispel the cold and warm the lungs." ”
Gu Chongyang couldn't help but be anxious when he heard this!
When she was intimate with her mother, she secretly called her mother to take the pulse, and her mother was indeed suffering from cold evil, but the cold evil was only outside the body, as long as she no longer suffered from cold and wind, she could be cured without medicine.
The real reason for my mother's cough is because I am sick, my mother takes care of herself, sleepless and too tired, so that the yin and yang in the lungs are out of balance.
For this symptom, you need to take medicine to moisten the lungs and promote the lungs, rest more, and not use warm medicine to dissipate cold at all.
If the mother really takes the wrong medicine, not only will she not be cured, but she will become more and more severe.
Gu Chongyang's heart couldn't help but sigh, is it because of this that his mother fell ill and died in the end?
The more she thought about it, the more she realized that this was the case.
She couldn't watch her mother go down the same path as she had in her previous life.
She had to stop her father and Dr. Li.
