Chapter 19: Uncovering the Scars

'P'*WXC'P''P'*WXC'P' LI RUI WANTED TO RUN AWAY FROM HOME, BUT AFTER THINKING ABOUT IT, HE FOUND THAT HE HAD NOWHERE TO GO WHEN HE LEFT THE HOUSE. This fact made him feel infinitely depressed, and finally secretly returned to his study in Qingcang Courtyard.

This "I sit in the house" was arranged by my father himself, and every bit of it came from my father's handwriting. He stroked his father's familiar handwriting, feeling that not only did he not have his father's talent, but he could not even compare to a single strand of his father's hair.

At least, he remembers the many uncles who came to mourn when his father died. The ensuing crowd made him kneeling for a day and a night and couldn't get up, kneeling there with his head down, he watched one after another Shibo crying and fainting on the mourning hall, which left a very deep impression on him who was ignorant back then.

If he dies here now, who will shed a tear for him but his uncle, aunt, brother and grandmother?

Cangshu Cangyi maybe, right? Maybe there is also Mrs. Jiang?

The sad young man who fell into self-pity for some reason stood in front of his father's screen, crying silently.

Until he heard Mama Hua's voice outside.

His first reaction was that Mama Hua had brought someone to search for him. So he quickly hid behind the screen. There was nowhere in the house to hide his "mighty" body.

Then, Grandma Hua and Grandma also came in.

Is there anyone in this house that grandma needs to avoid? Probably because of this thought, he did not say anything. Instead, I was curious to see who it was.

Everything that developed next made him like five thunderbolts.

"Rui'er?"

"Young Master Rui?"

"Grandma, it's a lie, isn't it? You've already found me, and you want to scare me out before you talk nonsense, right? Li Rui had tears in his eyes, "I was brought up by my aunt since I was a child, and everything I eat is the best in the house, the courtyard where I live is bigger than the main courtyard of Jinxiu Courtyard, and the specifications of the maid's servants are more than double that of Li Ming...... My aunt is not such a person. Auntie, aunt she ......"

Gu Qing looked at Li Rui, who seemed to have lost his backbone, with a complicated expression, and rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.

She didn't want to let him know the truth so early. If you are full of hatred for people, you will have resentment, you will inevitably be narrow-minded, and you will also have a kind of bitterness in dealing with people. She didn't want to raise Li Rui into a person like "Hamlet".

She is not really Mrs. Qiu, she doesn't care about the future of the Xinguo Mansion, power and other things. She just wants this child to grow up healthy and be able to live in this world with her own hands and feet. It's best to have a responsibility, a hearty, and the best to be happy every day.

Mama Hua looked at Li Rui, who was clenching her fists with both hands, and couldn't bear to speak: "Young master......"

"Shut up! My grandmother and I are talking! ”

Mama Hua sighed. "Grandma! What did Mama Liu mean by what she said just now? What do you mean 'the medicine in Qingcang Courtyard can't be touched'? What is 'follow Master Rui to be a scholar all his life'? Is it the wishful thinking of that Diao slave, right? When I go back, I will ask my aunt to kick her out of the house!" ”

Gu Qing felt that he had heard a big joke. An absurdity buried under the cloak of glory and wealth and a splendid future.

He needs someone to tell him it's not true!

Things have developed like this, and it is hypocritical to say anything "for his good".

She pointed to the chair next to her and said to Li Rui. "You sit down and listen to grandma tell you a story."

Gu Qing was afraid that the little fat man would faint if he was too excited, he was now in very poor health, because he was overweight, and he was often physically exhausted. Let him start with the vegetable field first, but also to slowly strengthen his outdoor exercise, and raise the foundation first.

Li Rui bit his lip tightly and looked at Gu Qing for a long time before sitting on the chair.

Gu Qing cleared his thoughts in his mind, and then began to say in a flat tone:

"Once upon a time, there was a family with three children. The eldest was born early, has a stable and talented personality, so their father and mother are ready to let him inherit the family business. Although the second son did not show amazing talent, he was also a middle-aged person. The youngest son was frail and sickly from an early age, and later died of an epidemic and did not reach adulthood. ”

“…… One day, many years later, the eldest son died untimely in order to save his ascendant......"

Gu Qing changed what she knew, changed the shell of someone else's family, and told Li Rui.

“…… Later, the wife of the second son found that what she had never thought of would fall on her head. She actually became the hostess of this big family. It is precisely because this status is not obtained by strength, under the surprise, she will inevitably be weak-hearted. ”

Her husband also worked under the upper peak of the eldest son in this house. She was always worried that Shangfeng would give back everything she had earned to her eldest son's widow considering her eldest son's merits. So, she made a decision. ”

Li Rui's body trembled like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind.

The hoop chair was pitiful, and the armrests had been pinched and rattled.

"The child's mother jumped into the lake on the forty-ninth day after his father's death, and his grandfather was sick in bed and could not get up. His grandmother had to serve his grandfather, and he never went far away. This child is so pitiful, how can there be no one to raise him? So the head of the house took the child to her yard and raised it as if it were her own son. No, better than your own son. ”

Li Rui looked like he was about to cry.

"She gave him everything he wanted, she made him lawless, she gave him whatever he wanted. She told him that people like them are nothing even if they are not motivated, and they will not worry about food and clothing for the rest of their lives anyway. She told him that in order to be strong, he had to eat meat like his grandparents, and that he could grow longer by eating more, and that the skinny child would be laughed at when he went out......"

"She replaced the little boy in his yard every once in a while under various names, and the child never had a henchman to rely on; She stuffed all kinds of eyes and ears in the child's yard, and even if the child didn't learn badly, she had to go out and cause some trouble, and ruin his reputation......"

"His master has never stayed for less than half a year, and he has to start from scratch in class, and he has been studying in a 'primary school' for three years."

She mixed the gold sore medicine with rusty copper filings, and instead of the doctor in the house, she sent people out of the inner city to find a doctor for the child on Qianmen Street; She ......"

"Say no more, Grandma!" Li Rui stood up from his chair and knelt down under Gu Qing.

"Grandma, woo woo...... Save my grandma...... I don't want to die! Li Rui lay on Gu Qing's knee and cried in shock and anger.

Soon, Gu Qing felt that her skirt was soaked.

"I don't want to be a national official, I don't want to be an official, I just want to live a good life. I want to be my rich man, and I want to be the eldest young master of my country's mansion......"

It's still too cruel to tell a twelve-year-old about this. What was she doing when she was twelve? At that time, I was in the sixth grade, so I was worried about which middle school to go to, right? Maybe buy a few cents of popsicles after school, save a few dollars this month to buy a villain book or something?

However, in this world, a twelve-year-old can already do a lot.

"If you don't want to die, you have to be self-reliant, you have to be an official, and you have to come out. Make yourself full of wings and never be afraid of others breaking your wings again. Gu Qing touched Li Xiaopang's hair. You can't be a rich man, and you can't be the eldest young master of the Guogong Mansion forever. Your brother will inherit the mansion one day, and you must leave at that time. But you don't know anything, what can you do if you leave? ”

"Kid, you have to be strong. Otherwise, grandma will not be able to walk steadily. ”

"Uh......h Grandma, where are you going? Li Rui raised his head, "Are you leaving the house?" ”

"I'm going to die one day." Gu Qing kept a straight face, hoping to dispel this child's dependence on him. She's not going to stay here for long. Even if she wanted to, this ruined body would not allow it.

"Your mother's dowry and your father's inheritance are mine. Your grandfather left me some precious things before he left, and these things will be given to you before I die. But before you can do that, you have to prove that you can hold on to these things......"

"I don't want those things, I want my grandmother to live a long life!"

What a sweet little fat man! Gu Qing felt that his heart was about to melt.

Do you want to start brushing up your favorability now? Although she is an older young man, she doesn't want to be a grandmother so early! It would be great if you could say, "I want my sister to live a long life"!

"There is a man who dies. Your grandfather is dead, your father is dead, your mother is dead, and I will die too. Even your children will leave you one day when they grow up. So you have to be kind to your wife in the future, because she is the only one who can always be with you, just like your grandmother is with your grandfather......"

Gu Qing preached and did not forget to cultivate Li Rui as a "good man" in ancient times.

Well, the future granddaughter-in-law, you have to thank me!

"Grandma! Woo......" Li Rui was about to faint from crying.

"Don't be like that. I'm not dead yet! Gu Qing rolled her eyes.

"Now, we have to get out of here first, find a place to wash and change, and then we can show up in the Zhiyun Courtyard together. You suddenly disappeared, although I let people hide it, but your aunt has many eyes and ears, and sooner or later it will pass by, and you have to make a thousand unwilling to farm, so as to lower her alertness and prevent her from reaching out. ”

"That's why I don't want to tell you the truth. You're so old, it's too hard for you to keep acting. Gu Qing patted Li Rui on the back.

"On the fifteenth day of this month, I am going to 'Rushian' to make incense, and I am going to take you there as well. There's a guy there, and I want you to meet them. ”

Li Rui's aunt was his mother's handkerchief in the boudoir. I hope they can look at Rui'er's mother's face and help solve the urgent need in front of them.

Illiterate or something, it's too scenic! `P`*WXC`P``P`*WXC`P`
