Chapter 40: Mother's Obstruction

When night falls, the Qingyang Hou Mansion, located on Dongzhimen Street in Nanju Xianfang, washes away the noise of the day and restores calm in the night.

However, Mrs. Ge, who was sitting on the big kang in the upper room of An Rong Courtyard, was not in a calm mood.

She grabbed the edge of the kang tightly with both hands, leaned forward slightly, and her voice was filled with unmistakable anticipation and joy: "What you said is true?" ”

"It's true." Although she had already guessed that her mother-in-law would be very happy, seeing Old Madam Ge's reaction at this moment, the eldest lady couldn't help but be satisfied: "I really didn't expect the fourth girl to come to such a move." The fourth brother and sister are an impenetrable person, but I didn't expect her adopted daughter to be a wonderful person. ”

Old Madam Ge couldn't help but pat the kang excitedly: "In this way, this time I can finally get rid of this thorn in the flesh." ”

"That's not enough." The eldest lady said with a smile: "In case the fourth master loses the car to protect the handsome, and ruthlessly hands over the four girls and lets us dispose of them, he can also clear up the involvement." ”

"I can't." Old Madam Ge was surprised: "The fourth child only has this one daughter. ”

"In front of the glory, wealth, and high-ranking officials, what is a daughter." The eldest lady smiled coldly and said, "Old lady, if we want to knock down the fourth room, we must increase our chips." ”

The eldest lady whispered a few words in Mrs. Ge's ear, and Mrs. Ge nodded with satisfaction: "In this way, the fourth child will be separated from the Shen family, he has cut off the support of the Shen family, and without the blessing of the Qingyang Marquis Mansion, he can only wait for the Hou in the Ministry until he dies." ”

The eldest lady Hao smiled slightly, indescribably happy.

The second master is the most cowardly and incompetent person, although the second lady Fei is the niece of Mrs. Ge, but as long as the big house is still Qingyang Hou, the second room can only rely on the snort of the big house to live, and never dare to offend the big house.

The third room is even more useless, although the third master is the old lady's own son, he is deaf and has no heirs. Although he has caused a lot of trouble, he is not capable of competing with the big house. When the old lady was alive, she was kept as a waste. When the old lady is dead, that's another story.

The most difficult thing is the fourth room, the fourth master has a meritorious reputation, and he is still an official. Although he is now waiting for a shortage in the capital, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not have a chance to soar, and he must cut off his way before this.

The four girls really kill two birds with one stone. Lord Lu returned to Beijing this time to be promoted, serving as a waiter in the ministry, in charge of the promotion and vacancies of officials in the court, the four girls offended the Lu family, not only let the old lady pinch the handle, but also ruined her father's future. Isn't that a wonderful person?

When the fourth room is driven out of the Qingyang Hou Mansion, the second room will also get out, and the Qingyang Hou Mansion will be the world of their big house at that time. The four bedrooms and two bedrooms also don't want to take away the silver field shops from the Qingyang Hou Mansion, those are her son's things, and she must keep them for her son.

In Anrong Courtyard, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were full of ghosts, and they were smug in their hearts. In Rongdong Temple, the situation is the opposite.

The fourth lady glared at Gu Chongyang with anger on her face: "Do you know what is wrong?" ”

Gu Chongyang knelt on the ground, tilted his head, and tried his best to prove it: "I'm not wrong." Mrs. Lu has a fear of needles, if the Li Yuan sentences the forced needle, the consequences will be very severe, I did this for Mrs. Lu's good. I know that my mother blames me for making my own decisions, blames me for offending the Li court sentence with my words, blames me for being nosy......"

Gu Chongyang raised his head, his eyes were focused, and he said to the fourth lady in a firm tone: "It's true that I was reckless today, but if I do it all over again, I will still do it without hesitation." Mother, I helped Mrs. Lu and was anxious about what others were anxious about, and I didn't do anything wrong. ”

"But if you don't get cured, how severe the consequences will be!" The fourth lady's voice was tense and her face was stern: "You just want to be anxious about what others are anxious about, why don't you want to think about how worried I am about you?" In case Mrs. Lu has a good time, not only you alone, but also your father and I will not have a good time. Until now, you still haven't admitted your mistake! ”

"Mother, Mrs. Lu will only be good, not evil. I'll cure her. Gu Chongyang said: "If my mother must ask me to admit my mistakes to be satisfied, then why should I admit my mistakes?" However, this is only because my mother is angry, so I have to admit my mistake, not my sincere confession. Mother, do you want me to admit my mistake like this? ”

Seeing that the fourth lady's face was tense and she didn't say a word, Gu Chongyang said in a very depressed and lost voice: "Mother, you have always taught me the principles of being a human being, and you have taught me to be kind and help others as much as possible. But why are you asking me to be indifferent now? ”

"You ......" The fourth lady was very shocked, she looked at Gu Chongyang in a daze, and didn't speak for a long time.

She had to admit that her daughter, the little girl she held in the palm of her hand, had grown up.

She had her own ideas, her own opinions. This idea will not change because of the denial of her as a mother, but will become more and more determined.

Even if she was so angry and so stern at the moment, she was still consistent and did not take half a step back.

When did her daughter start to have such a stoic character!

She should be happy, she should be proud of her daughter, her daughter is a thousand times stronger than the average weak and unassertive girl.

But when she thought that her daughter's perseverance was to practice medicine, she couldn't stop worrying about it.

Shinong industry and commerce, the status of businessmen is the lowest, not only for the eunuchs and wealthy families, but even ordinary farmers have more status than businessmen. If it weren't for the extraordinary kindness of today, the son of a merchant would not even be qualified to participate in the imperial examination.

As the daughter of a merchant, she married into the family of the minister, how much contempt and contempt she suffered, and how much cold words she endured. Always be careful, pay attention every step of the way, and don't dare to do anything wrong. But it is still indispensable to be ridiculed for low status, rudeness, and forgetfulness of wealth.

She has had enough of such days, Chongyang is Miss Houmen, and her father is from a two-list jinshi, so she no longer has to endure the unfair treatment she once received.

But her daughter actually wants to practice medicine, and she contradicts herself in order to practice medicine.

There are three religions and nine streams, and the status of doctors is below that of officials. A lady from Houmen, to practice medicine, does she still have a reputation? Who will dare to marry such a woman in the future?

If Chongyang was a man and could enter the Tai Hospital, she would not have imposed such an obstruction. But she is a girl, find a person who knows cold and hot and marry, and having children and living a beautiful life is her best destination.

But my daughter didn't listen to her own persuasion at all!

How this should be for the better!

When she thought about the criticism she had suffered and the white-eyed daughter she had to go through, she only felt that her heart was very stuffy, and her tears couldn't stop falling.

"Mother!"

Gu Chongyang was very shocked, she didn't expect that her mother would care about this step of the field when she practiced medicine.

Panicked and sad and self-blaming, Gu Chongyang's heart was like knocking over a five-flavor bottle, and all kinds of tastes came to his heart for a while.

"Fourth Miss, you are too ignorant!" There was an unconcealed reproach in Mama Wu's voice: "Madame is from a merchant, just because of this, I don't know how many cold words I have suffered over the years, and I don't have any status in front of the old lady." Therefore, the lady was always careful and paid attention everywhere, and did not dare to say a word more, and took one more step, for fear of being laughed at and said that the girl from the merchant family had no etiquette. ”

"How can others really blame you for what you have done today?" Mama Wu sighed and glanced at the fourth lady with some heartache: "Others will only say that Madame didn't teach you well, it's Madame's fault!" ”

When Gu Chongyang heard this, his eyes gradually reddened, and he felt sour in his heart.

Yes, she only cares about herself and insists on going her own way, but she doesn't think of her mother. Her small behavior may cause her mother to suffer unbearable criticism.

What was the purpose of her rebirth?

I made up my mind to save my mother, treat her, and let her not die young, and not be sad.

But what did you do? Not only did he not solve her mother's problems, but he caused her trouble, did not listen to her, and made her sad and sad.

The best part?

It's not to practice medicine, it's to be with her mother, so that she won't be wronged again.

That's it, since my mother doesn't like to practice medicine by herself, let's not practice medicine, horizontal and vertical...... It's not a big deal to be horizontal or vertical. Other girls don't practice medicine, don't they come over like that all their lives?

Although he persuaded himself like this in his heart, Gu Chongyang felt that his throat and eyes were very blocked.

She stood up, walked to the fourth lady, and slowly knelt down again: "Mother, I promise you that I will never treat others again in the future, and I will never talk about practicing medicine and healing again." But this time, I have already promised Mrs. Lu, and I can't keep my word. Just this time, you gave me half a month, and when Mrs. Lu was cured, I would never practice medicine again. ”

She remembered her previous life, in the years in Liangxiang Grange, she had no friends, no family, and only medical skills accompanied her.

She treated the tenants and was loved by them from the bottom of their hearts. Although she has nothing, she lives a simple and happy life.

But that kind of life, in this life, can no longer be.

Lose in hake, but gain in herring. Having a mother, but not having the joy and accomplishment of practicing medicine, this is probably the price of rebirth.

Gu Chongyang's eyes were wet, but he held back, raised a smiling face, and looked at his mother.

The fourth lady hugged Gu Chongyang with satisfaction: "My son, it's good if you are obedient." ”

Early the next morning, after Gu Chongyang got up and freshened up, he instructed Qingzhi: "You go to the outer courtyard and call Gu Tai to come over, just say that I have something to find him." If I haven't come back from Aneiin when he comes, you let him wait. ”

"Yes." Qingzhi took the order, and Gu Chongyang was accompanied by Lu Wu to the Rongdong Courtyard where the fourth master and the fourth lady lived.

After greeting her mother, the little maid brought a pulse pillow and put it under her mother's wrist, and Gu Chongyang began to give her mother a pulse.
