Chapter 611: The Truth Behind the Truth
Tiankuo looked at Zhu and felt very uncomfortable, for so long, he had been thinking about how to deal with himself, but he had never thought about what his father and mother should do.
At that time, he was picked up and returned to the Gu family, and his father and mother had just lost a child and poured all their feelings into him, if this matter was exposed and he wanted to leave the Gu family, what should his father and mother do?
Although he didn't think so, his father and mother must have been worried.
Seeing Zhu crying at this time, he was very distressed, and hurriedly went to comfort her, "Mother, don't cry, I will always be your son, I will never leave, I will always be by your side, okay?" ”
Zhu nodded vigorously, she didn't care about being embarrassed or not ashamed at this time, she just wanted to cry, she was afraid of this for a while, she was afraid that Tiankuo would blame them if she found out, and she was afraid that Tiankuo would find her family and leave the Gu family.
Now that Tiankuo said that she would not leave, of course she was happy, she couldn't help it, and tears flowed down one by one.
After explaining this matter, Gu Pingzhang let Gu Zelin and Zhu go out, saying that he still had something to tell Tiankuo.
Although the husband and wife were puzzled, they didn't say much, got up and went outside.
Only Gu Pingzhang and Wang were left in the house, as well as Tiankuo, and only the three of them were there.
Gu Pingzhang was silent for a while, and then said, "Tiankuo, your grandfather told me something before leaving, and I didn't want to tell you for the rest of my life, but I think about it, it's not good to hide this matter from you, it's better to tell you clearly." ”
"It's just that your grandfather said that you can't tell others, no one can say it, I will only leave you and your grandmother here, no matter how you decide after listening, at least don't say it, this is really about your grandfather's reputation, can you promise me?"
This was too serious, Tiankuo didn't know what it was, but he was very nervous when he heard Gu Pingzhang say this, so he had to nod.
"Grandpa, I promise you, no matter what it is, I won't say anything outside, and I'll listen to it today."
Wang also said on the side, "Old man, you can say it with peace of mind, I also know the importance of this matter, so naturally I won't say anything about it." ”
Gu Pingzhang nodded, and then he was about to speak, "Alas, it's really hard to say this, at that time, your grandfather didn't have much time left, so he specially called me to me and told me about it, it is true that you were brought back by your grandfather, there was not a single word of falsehood in those words just now, you can believe this, but there is another hidden truth in it." ”
"No one in the family knows about this, your grandfather has been hiding in his heart for so many years, and he told me when he came."
Wang and Tiankuo didn't intervene, just waited for him to say, Gu Pingzhang calmed down for a while, and then spoke again, "Tiankuo, you were brought back by your grandfather, but you didn't pick it up on the side of the road, it's ...... It's your grandfather, he's got him back from the traffickers. ”
"Speaking of which, it's still stealing, you were stolen back by him."
Just after saying this, Wang and Tiankuo glanced at each other, shocked and shocked, Wang said, "Old man, are you confused?" What are you talking about? How could Tiankuo be stolen back by his father, wasn't he picked up from the side of the road? ”
Gu Pingzhang couldn't even raise his head, "That's it, when my father went out on a long trip, he happened to hear someone talking about buying and selling children in the tea shed, so he pricked up his ears and listened, saying that the child was brought from the capital, he looked very good, he was a boy, and even the wrapped quilt was of good material, and it was estimated that it belonged to a rich and noble family." ”
"Eighty percent of the child was taken out and sold by someone seeking revenge, saying that he was going to sell the child to a family for two hundred taels of silver, and the other person said that there was another family to buy for three hundred taels, and the father felt angry at the time, thinking that the child was at home and was stolen and sold, which was pitiful enough, and it was still being turned around by human traffickers, and I felt distressed when I thought about it."
"I didn't plan to care about this, who wants to get into trouble? However, when they stayed at the inn that night, they met the two traffickers again, and by coincidence, the room was next door at the time, and the two went downstairs to eat and drink, leaving the child in the house. ”
"Just when the child cried, the father heard the cry, and couldn't sit still anymore, so he quietly entered the door and glanced at the child on the bed, and saw that he was crying hard, he was really distressed, and he didn't think much about it, so he took the child away."
"It was late at night, and there was another way down the second floor of the inn, and the two people downstairs were a little drunk after eating, so my father smoothly took the child out of the inn."
"That place is quite far away from Wanhe Town, and I didn't attract attention when I came back along the way, plus we live in the countryside, so it is estimated that there is nothing wrong, so my father was relieved to bring the child back."
"It's true that I want to let someone else raise it, or hand it over to the government for arrangement, alas, but who would have thought that the child born to the second daughter-in-law happened to die, so it was logical to stay at home."
"Tiankuo's life experience is estimated to be not simple, my father said that there was a piece of jade left in the swaddling clothes, a good piece of jade born in Cuisheng, I heard the two of them talk about it, it seems that the person who sold the child specially said that this piece of jade must be placed next to the child, and it is estimated that there will be a certificate when you want to find it in the future."
"Dad brought the child back, but he didn't tell him about the jade, originally wanted to tell him about it when Tiankuo was older, but Tiankuo was only a few years old, and he had already shown a different mind from others, so Dad put the hope of revitalizing the Gu family on Tiankuo's body."
He originally wanted to tell all the secrets when Tiankuo was bigger, but then he had selfish intentions and wanted Tiankuo to become the child of the Gu family forever and not let Tiankuo know his life experience, so he ...... So, so he threw the piece of jade into the weir pond in the village, and now he was afraid that it had been wrapped in silt, and he didn't know where it had sunk. ”
"Dad wanted to take this secret away, no one said, but it was really a hurdle of conscience, even if he was good to Tiankuo over the years, but he couldn't make up for the wrong things he had done, he felt sorry for Tiankuo, so he finally told me about it."
"But thinking about the future of the Gu family, let me not tell about it, I can't let Tiankuo know, if today's Kuo's life experience can't be hidden, there is no need to hide this matter anymore."
"Dad has already gone, I don't want to say anything about him, but this matter is our Gu family sorry for Tiankuo, if I don't hide it anymore, I'm afraid I won't be at ease when I leave in the future."
