Chapter 10: The Gu Family (1)
Old Lady Gu looked at Gu Xian with a disappointed expression and said, "If Qingshu doesn't say it, you won't send someone to investigate?" ”
Without waiting for Gu Xian to speak, Old Lady Gu continued: "I know, you think that as a daughter-in-law, you can't question your mother-in-law, otherwise you are unfilial, and Lin Chengyu will blame you if she knows it." Therefore, you want to make a big thing into a small thing, and you don't hesitate to make up lies for fear that I will find the bad luck of the Lin family. But Gu Xian, you were pregnant and born in October, and even you didn't protect her, who do you expect to protect her. ”
There are many things that Mrs. Gu has endured and not said, but she can't help it anymore: "Xiao Yuan's just said a few words of gossip, you are afraid that gossip will damage your reputation and affect Lin Chengyu's future, and if you don't go back to her parents' house, you don't want me to send something." Now I'm afraid of offending the old witch and making Lin Chengyu unhappy, so I don't even care about my daughter. Gu Xian, for Lin Chengyu's sake, you don't even want your mother and daughter. ”
Gu Xian's face turned pale: "Mother, I don't." ”
Crawling out of her intestines, she still doesn't know what kind of character. Old Lady Gu stood up and said, "Do you know best in your heart?" I first brought red beans to look back at home for a few days, you can think about it. ”
Gu Xian was reluctant to go to the Gu family: "Mother, Hongdou's body has not healed, so it is not appropriate to move." ”
This excuse sucks.
Old Lady Gu ignored Gu Xian, looked at Qingshu and asked, "Hongdou, do you want to go with grandma?" ”
Qingshu looked at Gu Xian, whose eyes were red, shook her head and said, "Grandma, I want to accompany my mother at home." Although her mother didn't go to the Lin family to ask for an explanation for her, she knew that Gu Xian really felt sorry for her, and this was enough for Qingshu.
Old Mrs. Gu was both relieved and uncomfortable: "Look at it, Hongdou knows to protect you at such a young age." But what about you? What have you done to me all these years. Gu Xian, you are not even as good as a child. ”
After speaking, Mrs. Gu's tears fell: "If you have half of the filial piety of red beans, I will have no regrets when I die." ”
Gu Xian lowered her head in shame.
Touching Qingshu's head, Mrs. Gu said, "When you get better, go to Grandma's for a few days." ”
This time, Qingshu agreed very simply: "Okay." ”
Seeing that Mrs. Gu was leaving, Gu Xian hurriedly said, "Mother, it's almost noon, you can stay and eat!" ”
"You're not afraid that I'll stay for dinner, and then I'll be talked about by Xiao Yuan's again?" These words are ridiculing Gu Xian for the so-called face, and she doesn't take into account her feelings as a mother-in-law.
On weekdays, even if she was angry with the old lady, she couldn't bear to say anything. It was also because Qingshu touched her too much today that she would express her dissatisfaction.
Gu Xian's face flushed with shame.
After Mrs. Gu left, Gu Xian took Qingshu's hand and asked, "Hongdou, my mother didn't stand up for you, are you resentful?" ”
Qingshu didn't say anything. She is disappointed, but she can't talk about resentment, after all, she is her mother. But she was afraid that she would not complain if she said it, and Gu Xian would let her swallow her anger when she encountered something in the future. After the events of her previous life, she will no longer be angry, and whoever bullies her in the Lin family in the future, she will have to get it back.
The mother blamed her, and the daughter also blamed her, Gu Xian's heart was heavy. So much so that at noon, I couldn't eat.
Qingshu didn't comfort Gu Xian, she lowered her head and ate a bowl of rice before returning to the room.
Chen's mother persuaded: "Madam, not for yourself, but for the child in your belly, you have to eat something." ”
Gu Xian ate half a bowl of rice without knowing anything, and sat on the rattan chair under the grape trellis in a daze.
Chen's mother thought about it for a while, and when she entered the house, she wanted Qingshu to go out to accompany Gu Xian, and she wouldn't be cranky when she was accompanied by a child.
Qingshu was reluctant to go out, and said, "Mother Chen, I want to practice calligraphy." I'm going to write 10 big characters today, and I'm only writing half of them! ”
Seeing this, Chen's mother said: "Girl, don't complain about your wife, she has no choice but not to pursue this matter." ”
As a daughter-in-law, if the wife asks the old woman of the Lin family, she will definitely be talked about. The lord knows, and he will blame the wife.
Qingshu was silent and said, "Mother Chen, I just feel sorry for my grandmother, my grandmother is too difficult. ”
Chen's mother relayed all these words to Gu Xian word for word.
"Mother Chen, am I really wrong?"
Chen's mother didn't answer this question, but just said, "Madam, put yourself in your shoes, if the girl is like you in the future, will you be sad and sad?" ”
Gu Xian lowered her head.
When she went to bed at night, Gu Xian stroked her dark and shiny hair and asked, "Hongdou, do you want to go to grandma's house for a few days?" ”
Qingshu didn't think about it and said, "Yes! Mother, are you willing to let me go to my grandmother's house? ”
These words were like a slap in Gu Xian's face, making her hot for a while.
This night, Gu Xian lay on the bed tossing and turning, and did not fall asleep until midnight.
After getting up the second day, Gu Xian said to Chen's mother: "Mom, you ask Uncle Miao to call a carriage, and I will take the red beans home." ”
Chen's mother was overjoyed: "Okay." "It's great that my wife can figure it out.
Sitting in the carriage and hearing the shouting outside, Red Bean lifted the curtain and looked outside.
The street is crowded with people, bustling, and lively. Red Beans looked at the dazzling array of small stalls on both sides of the street, selling donkey rolling, pea yellow, glutinous rice cakes and other food, as well as masks, clay figurines, kites and other things.
Although red beans have lived for more than 20 years in their last life, they have gone out shopping a few times; And because the residence is so deserted, she likes to be very lively.
Gu Xian saw that she couldn't take her eyes off it, and said outside with a smile: "Uncle Miao, go buy a nine-link for the girl to play with." ”
Uncle Miao not only bought nine consecutive rings, but also bought two strings of rock sugar gourds. Rock sugar gourd is a favorite of red beans, and it is indispensable every time you go shopping. Everyone in the family knows her preference.
Gu Xian smiled and handed a bunch of red beans to him, and said, "Eat one bunch first, and save the rest of the bunches for the afternoon." ”
Qingshu ate one, handed it to Gu Xian and said, "Mother, you can eat it too." ”
Gu Xian took a bite and said with a smile: "It's so sweet." ”
Leaning on Gu Xian, Qing Shu hesitated and asked, "Mother, I heard my aunt say that my grandmother's family is the richest man in Taifeng County?" Mother, is this true? ”
Gu Xian smiled: "Do you know what the richest man is?" ”
Qingshu deliberately looked unconvinced and said: "I asked Sister Xia Miao, and she said that the richest man is the richest person." Mother, does my grandmother's family have a lot of money? ”
Gu Xian wanted to talk nonsense, but Qingshu looked at her with a look of curiosity, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth: "That's all in the past." After your grandfather died, the family's lucrative business was robbed, and now it is not as good as it used to be. ”
The emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and her mother was her grandmother's only daughter. Lin Chengyu will marry her mother, I'm afraid that I just like this. As long as he marries his mother, he no longer has to worry about money. Lin Chengyu is really calculating.
