48, evil obstacles, memory recovery, unacceptable
Gu Shi'an glanced at Old Madam Yu, he didn't want to entangle with Old Madam Yu anymore, he didn't even want to see her again.
He really couldn't believe that this crazy woman with a vicious character was the person he had sincerely called his mother for more than ten years.
"Nian Nian is my daughter, why can't she come with me? You want to threaten me with your thoughts? Why do you still want to calculate with me again the nurturing grace of Niannian? ”
"My daughter is raised in Jinling, I don't know how much the Gu family has paid for her, but from the time she was born to the present, how much finance I have offered,
Not to mention anything else, the dowry I have saved for Nian Nian in the past ten years of birth and death, and how many things Jing Ning has honored to the mansion back then, are these not enough to buy the poor care that the Guogong Mansion has given her?
and Jing Ning was poisoned to death, and now the toxin is not solved, can you calculate everything clearly with me?
Why? Do you want to kill my wife and daughter because you hate me?
"That's it, Gu family, want to turn over? Dream on! I, Gu Shi'an, swear that as long as I am there for a day in this life, the Duke of Qi will not want to turn over one day. ”
The corners of Old Madam Yu's mouth curled, and she pulled out a contemptuous smile, "Used to threaten you?" Not that effort. Do you want to take her away? That's fine, in exchange for the property that was taken away! ”
"My daughter, do you want me to buy it with money? Even if you are not my biological mother, you are still a grandmother, and Nian Nian is also your granddaughter, how can you ......"
Gu Shi'an only felt that the person in front of him was ridiculous, so unreasonable.
Old Madam Yu smiled viciously, "Why? Because Xiao Wu is a wild seed like you. ”
When Gu Shi'an heard this, he leaned down and grabbed the old lady's collar, "You dare to slander Jingning." ”
As if if she had spoken it, she could be fearless, Old Madam Yu actually laughed and looked at the angry Gu Shi'an like that.
"Are you capable of committing such a crime? However, you are infatuated with Jing Ning, and your first thought is that I slander her. ”
Gu Shi'an looked at Mrs. Yu who was smiling like a ghost, he knew that Mrs. Yu didn't like him, and even had a strong disgust for him, but even so, when he was a child, he tried hard to repair the relationship between mother and son, but failed.
The better he is, the more disgusted she becomes, and for a long time, he has become an indelible shadow that has accompanied him as he grew up.
He looked at Old Madam Yu's lips and closed them one by one, but the words he said made him unacceptable and unbelievable.
"When Jingning was going to incense, she had an attack in advance, at that time it was seven months, and people often said that seven lives and eight don't live, but Xiao Wu survived. It's even healthy.
Why did the people who served around her die after Jing Ning's death, and they died?
Whether I'm slander or the truth, you can figure it out for yourself. ”
Old Madam Yu looked disdainful.
Gu Shi'an was really angry at first, but when he calmed down in the back, he let go of the collar he was holding, took a step back, and said,
"I don't believe what you say, and I don't allow you to slander Jingning's innocent reputation, how many people have conceived and given birth to children in July are alive and well, why can't you miss it."
Old Madam Yu shook her head with a smile and said, "Xiao Wu is a wild species, and it has nothing to do with Jingning's reputation for innocence. For now, I'll tell you the truth.
Jing Ning was too bored because she had been at home for a long time, and when she saw that we were going to incense, she had to follow, and you were there at the time, weren't you?
When I arrived at Izumoji Temple, I originally planned to go there that day and return on the same day, but it was raining heavily that day and there was thunder, so everyone decided to spend the night at Izumoji Temple and return the next day.
I don't know if Jing Ning was scared, or what, I was born that night, I was really frightened at the time, although I don't like you, but after all, Jing Ning is the county lord, and there is such a difficult mother.
Her stomach has been hurting, and the palace mouth has not been opened, didn't you brave the heavy rain overnight to lead the doctor and Wen Po all the way to gallop all the way?
It's a pity that even if the doctor and Wen Po came, the child was born a stillbirth.
I was with her to give birth at the time, and I was tired and tired, but I didn't expect it to be a stillborn! Still a baby boy. How do I explain this to your mother-in-law?
Fortunately, your sister-in-law reminded me that there were only a few of us at the time, and we could do a lot of work and feet.
Coincidentally, there was a pilgrim who also came to offer incense that day, but it was a peasant woman, difficult to give birth, and on a rainy day, there was no one to help her, and it happened to be seen by your sister-in-law.
Your sister-in-law said to bring the child over.
In order to deal with your mother-in-law, I agreed, and as a result, God helped me, and Xiao Wu grew bigger and bigger, and he looked very similar to Jing Ning.
In fact, now it seems that my decision at that time was right, you are a wild seed, your daughter is also a wild seed, do you think this gift I gave you? ”
"If you don't believe it, you can have a blood test with Xiao Wu, otherwise, you can also dig up Jingning's grave and use her bones to drop blood for a blood test."
Gu Shi'an took a step back, his hands clenched into fists, and he didn't even feel the green tendons protruding, "You lie." ”
How could Jing Ning's child die? When she was first pregnant, she invited a doctor who is good at regulating pregnant women and pediatric diseases to guard, and even the mother-in-law who sprinkled and swept the yard was proficient in the countryside.
He took care of Jing Ning meticulously, although the eldest princess of the protector was not in the capital at that time, but not long after the emperor ascended the throne, Long En of the eldest princess of the protector was still there, and the old lady Yu was also kind to Jing Ning.
His father was even more happy, saying that he finally had a queen, and his heart disease was also put down.
How could Jingning's child be born and die?
Besides, it's not a mother and daughter, why are Xiao Wu and Jing Ning so similar?
Gu Shi'an didn't believe it.
And Gu Nian, who was outside the door, heard that Gu Shi'an had come to the Guogong Mansion at home, and hurried over, she heard the quarrel inside, hesitated whether to go in, and listened to Mrs. Yu's words.
These words made her feel like the Heavenly Spirit Cover had suddenly been opened, and as if some switch had been turned on, many memories that had been forgotten because of poisoning came flooding in.
She finally remembered why she seemed to be schizophrenic and had a dual personality.
Because, three years ago, she heard the conversation between Mrs. Tai and the Yang family.
Although she only came to Gu's house occasionally, thinking that this was her father's house, and there were her relatives in it, she didn't want to come to Gu's house anymore, she still had to come, and she wanted to do her filial piety instead of her father.
Three years ago, in the summer, she was taken to the house again by Mrs. Yu, when she was still a carefree girl.
The rules of the Gu family are much stricter than those of the Jinling Eldest Princess Mansion, and she doesn't dare to take a wrong step, but this still can't suppress her nature.
At noon that day, she took advantage of the people's nap to secretly catch dragonflies, and chased them to the back of the old lady's house, she wanted to see if the old lady Yu woke up, and secretly walked to the window, but heard someone talking inside.
"I didn't expect that little five's girl to have a good life, the longer she grows, the more she looks like Jingning, but we have been worried for so many years." It was Young's voice.
"This is retribution. A wild seed also makes them very precious. Old Madam Yu snorted coldly.
Yang said in surprise, "Mother, where do you start with the word retribution?" ”
Old Madam Yu didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, and instantly changed the topic.
At that time, she was pampered by the princess of the protector, and it can be said that she was a little arrogant, she immediately opened the window angrily and asked angrily,
"I'm my mother's daughter, and my grandmother says I look like her, what's wrong? Grandmother, why do you say I'm a wild seed? ”
When Mrs. Yu saw her suddenly appear, she said to Gu Nian with a poisonous mouth, "Evil obstacles, sneaky." ”
Although she was pampered by her grandmother and arrogant, she was not a fool, she didn't listen to the old lady's bad words, but none of them were so bad.
She immediately believed Mrs. Yu's words that she was a 'wild seed', after all, if it was her own granddaughter, she would definitely not say this, and if she said so, she was clearly an enemy.
Gu Nian still stiffened his neck, "You said that I am a wild seed, that is, a wild seed, what evidence do you have?" If I'm a wild seed, why am I so similar to my mother? ”
Yang's skin smiled and said, "You were born in front of the Buddha, the Buddha looks at you pitiful, bless you, you were brought back by the eldest aunt at that time, and no one else knows better than me." ”
She is not the upright daughter of the Gu family, she should not be loved by her grandmother deep into the bone marrow, she is just a wild seed of unknown origin brought back by the eldest uncle.
This secret that I learned by accident made the simple and carefree girl fall into great self-denial and disgust. She once took her habit for granted, but overnight, it collapsed.
After that, she fell seriously ill and was silent, I don't know if it was the poison, or if she subconsciously didn't want to believe this fact, she forgot this paragraph after going to Jinling.
Gu Nian stood there with a pale face, crumbling, and when Astragalus saw this, he shouted in a low voice, "Girl." ”
Such a low sound was still heard by Gu Shi'an, he opened the curtain and rushed out, and what he saw was Gu Nian with tears streaming down his face and biting his lips.
"Niannian, don't believe these nonsense, Dad believes that you are the child of Dad and Mother, even if you are really not, you are still my Gu Shi'an's daughter.
Don't be afraid. There's Daddy here."
Gu Shi'an's heart was not shaking, but seeing Gu Nian like this, he couldn't care about the shock in his heart, raised his hand and touched Gu Nian's head to comfort her.
Gu Nian's pale face smiled weakly at Gu Shi'an.
How Gu Nian left the Guogong Mansion, she didn't know.
She was dejected, her face was pale, as if she had gone round in hell, and that night she was hot and had a high fever.
Gu Nian only felt that he was about to die, and his whole body was like burning in a blazing fire, hot and hot.
She was like one of those who had experienced the pain of death in a lifetime.
In the first life, he was cut off his hands and legs by one of his husband's concubines, and died of pain.
In the third life, the husband who became the emperor handed her a glass of wine with a smile and said to her affectionately: "In the future, we will share the world." ”
The tear mole in the corner of his eye made her lose her mind, and the smile was so good, she drank it all, and then there was an overwhelming pain......
In the fifth life, her husband's junior had a big belly and showed off to her who had just had a miscarriage, "It's a pity that the child in my belly is missing a sibling..."
In the eighth life, she took her lost cousin to the regent's palace to take care of her, but she didn't expect to attract a wolf, she took advantage of her husband's absence in the mansion, lured her to incense, and finally, pushed her off the cliff......
Before she died, she swore that if there was an afterlife, she only wanted a peaceful life and died a righteous life.
She seemed to see the abducted little self again, running in a hurry, she thought she couldn't escape, and then a teenager fell from the sky and saved her, but his own arm was injured.
He rescued her, and when he gave her to his grandmother, he stroked her cheek and whispered, "Don't forget my ......."
However, she forgot about him, and the face she wanted to remember disappeared from her mind......
There were too many memories, her head was about to explode, she groaned in pain, she heard her grandmother's low cry, yes, she still had her grandmother, and her father.
It's just that it's no longer her grandmother, and her dad is no longer her daddy.
She barely opened her eyes, "Grandmother ......"
The eldest princess of the country, who had been sitting on the edge of the bed for a few nights, heard the low call of her granddaughter, who was the baby of her heart, and couldn't believe her ears. ”
Mama Su wiped her tears, "The old slave heard it, yes, the girl woke up......"
The eldest princess dared to rush over and look at Gu Nian, only to see that her face was pale on the bed, and Gu Nian, who was thin and out of shape, looked at her with her eyes open.
"Nian Nian...... My heart and liver...... You're scared of your grandmother......" The eldest princess of the protector held Gu Nian's hand and instructed Mama Su, "Go and call the imperial doctor, and Mingyue, go to the kitchen and let them make some soft and glutinous rice porridge...... Mingyue, you go ......"
The eldest princess who had just returned the boring princess was instantly full of energy, ordering this, ordering that.
"Grandmother, how is Nian Nian today?" Zhou Yuyan did not arrive, and the voice arrived first.
When he entered the inner room, he saw that Gu Nian had already opened his eyes, and he pounced in surprise, "Nian Nian, so Nian Nian...... You're finally awake...... If you don't wake up, your grandmother will be sick......" Zhou Yuyan's voice choked as she spoke.
"Cousin, I'm sorry...... Grandmother...... I'm sorry......" Gu Nian said weakly.
"What does it have to do with you, it's all bad for the Gu family, grandmother is angry......" Before Zhou Yuyan could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the eldest princess of the protector, "Okay, your sister just woke up, don't chatter, let her rest well." If you want to accompany her, stay here with her......"
Gu Nian just woke up, her spirit was very weak, and her brain couldn't turn away, she didn't think much about it, she looked at the eldest princess sitting on the edge of the bed as if she was ten years old, and her heart was sour, "Grandmother, you go to rest, if you fall ill again, Nian Nian will die of sadness, and besides, who will hurt me when the time comes......"
Gu Nian was in a coma for a few days, and the eldest princess of the protector stayed up for a few days, it was useless to persuade anyone, she was too afraid of sending a white-haired person to a black-haired person again.
Now that Gu Nian woke up, as soon as her nerves loosened, tiredness swarmed, and Zhou Yuyan also asked her to rest, and forcibly helped her up, "Grandmother, you go and rest, you haven't punished those bad people yet, you have to keep your spirits up......"
"Those messy things, don't talk to your sister anymore......" The eldest princess of the protector solemnly instructed Zhou Yuyan.
Zhou Yuyan nodded again and again, "Don't worry, it won't." ”
Sending away the princess of the protectorate, Zhou Yuyan returned to the inner room, and saw Gu Nianwei lying there, half-asleep, her lips were pale and dry, and she had a layer of dead skin, she was very distressed, and hurriedly asked Yahuan to pour warm water, and gently moistened Gu Nian's lips with a clean handkerchief.
While helping Gu Nian wipe it, she shed tears, in her memory, Nian Nian has always been vivid, how could she ever be so dull?
Gu Nian raised his hand, wanting to wipe away the tears on Zhou Yuyan's face, but he had no strength at all, so he could only say in a dumb voice: "Cousin, don't cry, I'm fine......"
Zhou Yuyan lost control even more when she heard this, and her tears were big and she stayed, "You still said it's okay, do you know how many days you have slept in?" For seven days, your high fever never went down, and your grandmother almost didn't survive......"
Gu Nian's mind was chaotic, but she didn't expect her to be in a coma for so long...... Fortunately, I didn't burn out my brain, but my tired family was worried.
At this time, Astragalus came over with the medicine, "Girl, take the medicine." ”
Zhou Yuyan wiped her tears, took the big pillow on the side, put it at the head of the bed, and helped Gu Nian to lean on it, took the medicine bowl in Astragalus's hand, spooned it, and blew it gently, "You have to get better quickly." ”
Gu Nian took a sip, and was almost spit out by the strange taste of the medicine, "Cousin, don't feed it, it's too unpleasant, I'm bored in one gulp." ”
Zhou Yuyan laughed angrily, "Hey, it's still ......" However, she still touched the temperature, waited until it was not hot, and then put it to Gu Nian's mouth, looked at her frowning, and drank the medicine in one go.
After drinking, she asked the astragalus to pour water and rinse her mouth.
After Gu Nian woke up, she lay on the bed for nearly ten days before she slowly recovered, and after fainting in the Guogong Mansion, because she was closer to the Anyuan Marquis Mansion, Gu Shi'an sent her to the Anyuan Marquis Mansion.
Gu Nian has been living in the Marquis of Anyuan's mansion these days, and Gu Shi'an came to see her every day, and he didn't mention anything about what happened in the Gu family that day.
Just touch her head, let her recuperate well, and don't think nonsense.
The same is true for the eldest princess of the protector, I just hope that she will get better soon.
Gu Nian felt that she wanted to cry, but her tears didn't fall at all.
She works very hard to live well in this life and grow old safely.
But if you want to love, want to repay, and want to be close, these relatives are not hers.
So what should she do?
She couldn't figure it out.
When I was a child, my grandmother used to say a word to her,
When you are still young, the hardships you endure, the tears you shed, and the hardships you endure will become the guiding lights that illuminate your way forward.
She doesn't know how many secrets she hides in addition to her life experience and being poisoned, but no matter how many secrets, she has to work hard to live well.
She has to endure hardships, she has cried when she deserves to eat, she has endured so many lives, and how difficult the road has been walked barefoot.
During the time she was lying in bed, she couldn't understand many things, but she also wanted to understand many things.
The road to rebirth has never been smooth, and it has never been predictable, but she still has to go on, and if she doesn't, who knows if God will tell her to do it again?
There can be many failures in life, and you can fail many times, but you must not allow defeat without a fight.
If she is her mother's daughter, then everyone is happy, if not, then it doesn't matter, she will still try her best to find the murderer who hurt her mother, as long as her father and grandmother still accept her, then she will still be filial to them as always.
The next day, the eldest princess came to see her, and she looked at her old grandmother in a daze, and pursed her lips.
The eldest princess thought she was uncomfortable, reached out and touched her forehead, and said, "What's wrong with Niannian?" Tell my grandmother. ”
"Grandmother, you know everything, don't you?" Gu Nian asked.
The Protector Princess smiled and said, "What do you know?" You're not Jing Ning's daughter? ”
Gu Nian nodded, very calm, since the most difficult ones have already been asked, the next ones will not be difficult.
"Nian Nian, you just need to remember that you are my granddaughter, your father's daughter, no matter who says anything, you don't care." The princess of the protector said.
Gu Nian was stunned, and she said softly, "But, Old Madam Yu...... She said that I was personally hugged by the Duchess of Qi Guo, and I had heard her say it with my own ears. ”
The Protector Princess said nervously, "Have you heard them say it with your own ears?" When? Was it the day your father sent you? ”
Gu Nian shook his head and told the Protector Princess what he heard in the summer of three years ago.
The eldest princess interrupted Gu Nian's words,
"Tell me honestly, why did you tell me this? Your father and I don't believe what the old woman of the Gu family said,
But you must know that what you said can confirm that you are really not Jingning's child. Why did you still confess to me? ”
Gu Nian tried very hard not to cry, "I don't dare to enjoy your kindness to me with peace of mind, I was probably too stimulated before, and because of the poisoning, I forgot all this." It was also that day that I remembered it by chance.
If you don't remember, if you do, I'll tell you your ......."
The Protector Princess curled the corners of her lips and laughed, "You don't know that if you say this, it will have nothing to do with me?" ”
Gu Nian didn't speak, his throat tightened, his eyes were astringent, and he replied respectfully after a while, "I know." ”
The eldest princess of the protector touched her face, her thoughts were so frank and unrestrained, much better than those charms of the Gu family.
"Nian Nian, don't take those words to heart, when you were just born, I arrived with Wen Po and the doctor, when I just arrived outside the house where your mother gave birth, I heard a loud cry from inside, and the old lady Yu and the Yang family had no possibility of doing anything at all."
Outside, Gu Shi'an opened the curtain and came in, and after greeting the princess of the protector, he told Gu Nian about the situation at that time.
"Not only that, these days, my father has already checked it, and there was no one who gave birth on the same day at that time, so how could they hold a newborn you to fool around?"
Gu Nian bit her lip tightly, not daring to cry.
*
In the Jin Palace, Xiao Yue was looking at the letter in his hand, and slowly saw the surprise on his face at the end.
When the rumors about Gu Shi'an being the outer chamber first came out, he went to check the source of the rumors, which seemed to come from the Qi State Mansion, but there were all kinds of signs that the people in the Qi State Mansion were being used.
As for the person who used them, the clue was broken.
He turned the letter in his hand, I don't know who it was, he actually used the Gu family to poke this matter out, I have to say that it is indeed deep in thought, what others say, and what his relatives say in person, must be what his relatives say is convincing.
What exactly is the purpose behind it? So who is this person?
It doesn't matter who it is, the other party's purpose is to reveal Gu Shi'an's true life experience and achieve their ultimate goal.
The Gu family, a declining Guogong Mansion, is not worth fighting, so it is Gu Shi'an who really has to deal with it.
According to the rumors, he also checked Gu Shi'an's true identity.
found that Gu Shi'an was not just an outer room, but the person who was sent to track down the final identity had not yet returned, and the specific situation would not be known until that person came back.
At the beginning, he only cared about the poisoning of Lord Cha Jingning and Gu Nian, and never thought that there was anything wrong with Gu Shi'an's identity, but now it seems that they are on the same line.
As long as one is investigated, the rest of nature will be solved.
It's just that he didn't expect the news to come back to be like that!
