Mrs. Qi saw Qingshu sitting on the chair in a daze, touched her head and said, "What are you thinking?" ”

Qingshu said: "It's just that I haven't seen him for more than half a year, and Gu Heping seems to be a different person." ”

Mrs. Qi smiled and said, "People are changing. Although Gu Heping is very unbearable, he does not deny that he is a good father. ”

Qingshu sighed: "Yes, he is a good father. ”

After a pause, Qingshu smiled bitterly: "Gu Heping is filial to his biological parents, affectionate and righteous to his wife, and kind and generous to his children. But why is my grandmother cold-hearted and cold-hearted? ”

She couldn't figure this out.

Mrs. Qi was silent and said, "Gu Heping will become like that, and your grandmother has a responsibility that cannot be shirked." ”

Qingshu couldn't help but raise his head.

Mrs. Qi said: "Don't talk about anything else, just marry a wife." Since your grandmother knew that Yuan Shanniang was misbehaving, she shouldn't let Gu Heping marry her. What about pregnancy? Let Gu Heping accept her as a concubine, and then marry Gu Heping a powerful daughter-in-law to enter the door. In this case, what waves can Yuan Shanniang make? ”

After a pause, Mrs. Qi said again: "Later, Yuan Shanniang gave birth to a son, and I asked your grandmother to take the child over to raise it, but your grandmother didn't want to." Let her give Gu Heping a concubine, and she will not be happy to hold the child by her side when the time comes. can't get used to seeing Yuan Shanniang, so she won't let her come to her and see her out of sight. Gu Heping subsidized the third room, and Yuan Shanniang subsidized the Yuan family, but she didn't care. I told her a long time ago that something was going to happen sooner or later with such indulgence. ”

Qingshu smiled bitterly: "It's still my aunt who can see through." ”

Mrs. Qi said: "Your grandmother is actually a strong outsider. On that day, your mother was forced to go on a hunger strike to marry Lin Chengyu, so I wrote to her and said that she couldn't let go of this matter, otherwise she would regret it in the future. If she didn't agree to this family affair that day, and then left Taifeng County with Gu Xian, where would there be these things now. ”

Qingshu said softly: "Grandma, she is soft-hearted. ”

Mrs. Qi said: "There are some things that you can't be soft-hearted, and if you are soft-hearted, there will be endless troubles. Qingshu, you don't have to learn from your grandmother. ”

"Well, I'll learn from you, aunt."

Mrs. Qi shook her head and said, "Don't learn from me." This woman should be soft when she should be soft. I'm just too hard, that's why I'm hated. ”

Qingshu disagreed with this: "Auntie, it's a mediocrity not to be hated." Besides, it's good to do whatever you want, and it's good to live happily and happily for a lifetime. ”

Mrs. Qi said with a smile: "That's what I said, but it's too rigid and easy to break, and I can still overcome rigidity with men." In this way, husband and wife can love the family and be harmonious. ”

She was unlucky enough to run into a hypocrite. If not, I will definitely live a happy life in this life.

Qingshu said: "Auntie, I know. ”

Gently patting Qingshu's back, Mrs. Qi said: "Men are afraid of entering the wrong industry, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man." Many people say that once you marry the wrong person, you will be ruined for the rest of your life, which is both true and not entirely true. Yes, it is because marrying the wrong person will be heartbreaking. It's not all right, it's because you can't get by. Today is not as harsh as before, and Heli is not so harsh. As long as you have the ability, you can live well as if you set up a female household after leaving. Qingshu, women are not afraid of marrying the wrong person, what they are afraid of is that they will be immersed in grief after marrying the wrong person and will not be able to get out for the rest of their lives. ”

Luckily, she came out. It was also because of this that she was especially grateful to Mrs. Gu.

Qingshu was stunned when she heard this, and when she came back to her senses, she said very gratefully, "Thank you, aunt." ”

These words confirm one thing, as long as you are strong, there is nothing to be afraid of.

Mrs. Qi was also afraid that Lin Chengyu and Qi Xiuran's affair would cast a shadow on Qingshu, so she would not dare to marry in the future. Otherwise, she wouldn't have told Qingshu this.

After talking, Qingshu went to the garden to paint with his easel on his back. Originally, she painted as a pastime, but Fu Ran told her that it was best to have a specialty when she went to women's school. If the rhythm is not good, the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting will also be painted. Therefore, Qingshu now regards painting as a homework.

Mrs. Qi saw Qing Shu's painting in the afternoon: "The painting is very good." ”

Qing Shu painted a picture of peach trees, these peach trees are vibrant, and the peach blossoms on them are graceful. Pink flowers are crowded with branches, one by one.

Mrs. Qi put down the painting and asked Qingshu: "Qingshu, you are very talented in painting, have you ever thought about becoming a great painter in the future?" ”

She knows Fu Ran's background very well, and she is also good at music and chess, but her painting skills are average.

Qingshu shook his head and said, "Auntie, the teacher said that my painting craftsmanship is too heavy and lacks aura. Even if you specialize in this, you can only be called a painter, and you can't reach the realm of a great painter. ”

Mrs. Qi was a little unconvinced: "How can you not have talent?" If you don't have talent, you can't draw such a beautiful picture. ”

Qingshu said: "Auntie, I trust the judgment of the gentleman. ”

Her family knows her own affairs, and her ability to make such a painting is completely based on the foundation laid in her previous life.

Even if Fu Ran is famous, Mrs. Qi still doesn't want to believe it. She sent someone to send the painting to a great Confucian who was good at painting for appreciation, and the great Confucian came up with the same evaluation as Fu Ran, saying that Qingshu's painting craftsmanship was too heavy.

When Mrs. Qi found out, she secretly sighed a pity.

Two days later, Miao Laoshi and Qingshu said: "Girl, my uncle went to Yizhuang to buy a female corpse, and brought it back to Taifeng County after pretending to be buried. ”

Qingshu smiled and said, "I didn't expect him to take a salary from the bottom of the kettle." ”

Let the people in Taifeng County think that Yuan Shanniang is dead, so that even if someone says that Yuan Shanniang is a flower girl, they can deny it.

Just as Qing Shu thought, after Gu Heping brought the corpse back, he told those who knew them that Yuan Shanniang had been abused by the rich merchant. In desperation, she committed suicide by throwing herself into the river.

The rich merchant didn't collect Yuan Shanniang's body, for the sake of the two children, he brought it back for burial. In this way, the children can also give her the grave to burn paper money during the New Year's holidays, so that she will not be a lonely ghost.

The corpse was fished up from the river and was so swollen that it was no longer visible.

didn't stop, and the coffin was pulled back to Taifeng County and put into the ground on the same day. When the Yuan family was buried, Mrs. Yuan came alone, and no one else showed up.

Some people say that Gu Heping is stupid, such a vicious and ruthless woman should be thrown into a mass grave. Some people also said that Gu Heping valued love and righteousness, and he still helped with the aftermath when it came to such a situation.

Gu Heping secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard these discussions, no matter what these people said, as long as they believed that Yuan Shanniang was dead.

Zeng looked at Gu Heping, who was lying on the bed without any energy, and said with relief: "Master, this matter is over, don't think about it." ”

Gu Heping said with red eyes: "Qingshu's eyes when he looked at me were like looking at a stranger. She was still like that, let alone her mother. ”

"Mother can't forgive me in this life."

Zeng secretly said in his heart that no one will forgive you for what you did before: "Don't think so much, let's just live our own lives in the future." ”

Gu Heping hung his head and didn't speak.

Looking at him like this, Zeng said: "I'll buy some incense, candles, and paper money later, and you can take it to the uncle's grave tomorrow." By the way, talk to the uncle. ”

Although Gu Heping has many shortcomings, it is enough for him to be willing to make money to support his family.
