Su Qing's words made Gu Wangchen ashamed, and he was even more heartfelt after listening to Gu Qian's words. sour

His eyes never left Gu Qian, and his body slowly slid down to sit on the ground, at the same level as Gu Qian's gaze.

Your eyes should have been so clear when you were a child, right? If his mother taught him like Su Qing, would he still do those things?

The words that had been long ago rang clearly in his ears:

Son, Lizheng's family has collected pears, you look good, pleased, go and say a word sweetly, maybe the old man can give you one. He doesn't give it, and you steal one while people are not paying attention, even if they see it, they won't be as knowledgeable as a baby.

Mother, I'm afraid, stealing things will go to jail.

Something that has no interest, how can a broken pear go to jail.

Mother, I will study hard, win the lift, buy you a lot of pears, and buy meat.

Well, if you win the lift, you will be a big official, as big as the county lord, let's eat and drink spicy, pears and meat are a fart.

……

Son, I went to Lao Xu's house to eat meat, why didn't I bring some ideas back to my mother? The old lady raised you hard.

Son, why did you come back with two pieces of dim sum, if you get a few copper plates, you can also buy two taels of meat.

Son, what is this idea of copper plate enough? It's the New Year, you have to make a new dress, and the old lady should also make a dress. Lao Xu's family is rich, and that girl is stupid again, so let's think of more squeezing.

Son, Xu Qingyan is dead, the old Xu family is about to fall, you are so good at learning, and you are so handsome? How can that stupid girl be worthy of you. Ouch, pity me, no foil? There is also a string of people eating idle meals in the back.

……

The bigger you are, the more you want? It's better than his mother. What if his mother also teaches children like Su Qing? Will you get this far?

Tears welled up in his eyes, and he said softly, "Qian'er? I...... Uncle is a lesson for you? Listen to your mother. ”

Gu Qian was no longer too afraid of this person, and stood up from behind Su Qing and said, "I've always listened to my mother's words. Waiting for us to get home? I'm going to go to a private school? Growing up to be an official? When a great Confucian? Scholarship. ”

This made Gu Wangchen a little regretful? But not an official? At least not by yourself.

He nodded, looked up and said to Su Qing, "Qing'er, I'm sorry......"

Su Qing sighed, squatted down and put the food box on the ground? Take out the braised pork that has been cut into slices wrapped in oiled paper? And a small jug of wine.

Said? "Eat, right? We can only stay here for a quarter of an hour. ”

Gu Wangchen grabbed a few pieces of meat and stuffed them into his mouth, picked up the wine jug and poured it into his mouth, and the wine flowed out of the corners of his mouth? Then it flows down the messy short whiskers. Choked and coughed a few times, and continued to drink.

Su Qing covered her mouth with her hands, wanting to cry and couldn't shed anything. The previous Gu Wangchen was as elegant and clean as a heavenly immortal, and that kind of Gu Wangchen seemed to be far away in his previous life, and he had nothing to do with the dirty man in front of him.

Gu Qian persuaded again, "Uncle, slow down, you like to drink, we will send it next time." ”

There were only two taels of wine in the pot, and I drank it in a few sips.

Gu Wangchen put down the wine jug, wiped his mouth and smiled at Gu Qian, and asked Su Qing again, "Do you know the news of my mother?" ”

Su Qing said truthfully, "I heard Fourth Grandma Wen say that she was lying in bed for a few days and no one cared about her, and she starved to death. ”

When the sergeant came to raid the house and arrest him, there were Zhou's mother and son, more than a dozen subordinates, and two relatives who came to fight the autumn wind, and the old lady actually starved to death. is also, the old lady's mouth is disgusted by everyone...... Wait, isn't Grandma Wen Xu Lanyin, it turns out that she still cares about herself.

Gu Wangchen's eyes flashed with a fine light, and a smile appeared on his decadent dirty face, and he said, "Xu Lanyin also knows about me?" ”

A trace of sadness slipped across Su Qing's face, and she said, "Of course she knows, we were still picked up by her, and we are now living in her house." ”

Gu Wangchen's hand grasping the iron railing tighter, grinned a few times, and said in a low voice, "Qing'er, I've been thinking about it these days, the person I'm most sorry for in this life, one is you, and the other is her. You were so good to me, and I wanted you to die. I was blinded by lard and blinded by the future. If I had kept any of you, I wouldn't have ended up like this...... Alas, the past is unbearable. Qing'er, when you see Xu Lanyin tell her, I know it's wrong, my mother asked me to do all those things before. She is Wen Zhuoan's daughter-in-law, and she is very liked by the Queen Mother, if she wants to save me, it will be too late. When I go out, I will no longer think about glory and wealth, and I will live a good life with you and my children. I am knowledgeable, and I will personally teach Qian'er and let him be admitted to the Jinshi ...... Oh no, be a Confucian. Qing'er, please, please beg Xu Lanyin, she will help......"

His voice trembled with excitement, as if the light was ahead.

Su Qing's heart was sad and heartbroken just now, and after listening to his words, her heart seemed to be cold, so cold that her body trembled a little. After settling down, I felt that this was Gu Wangchen's true face, and when he was dying, he still didn't realize his mistakes, and he had to blame others for his mistakes.

She said in a cold voice, "Gu Wangchen, you look up to me, and you look up to you." What is my relationship with Xu Lanyin, what is your relationship with her, why should we let her break the law to help her? Also, you have come to this point, your mother is at fault, but your fault is even greater. There is an old saying that 'bad bamboo shoots make good bamboo shoots'. What's more, it is not only your mother who has taught you, but also your husband, Mrs. Xu, so many peaks, and the laws of the imperial court...... But you listen to your mother alone, and you are in the same league as those people. That's a good saying, you're being arrested now, and you're the only one who has harmed. If he is caught in the future, it will be the whole clan who will be caught in it...... Okay, let's go, I'll come back to see you next month. ”

As he spoke, Su Qing bent down to pick up the wine jug and put it in the food box, and led Gu Qian outside.

"Qing'er, Qing'er......" Gu Wangchen's voice resounded in the prison, and there were echoes.

Su Qing didn't look back and walked forward, and Gu Qian looked back at "Uncle Gu" from time to time, who couldn't see clearly.

Walking out of the cell door, the scorching sun made them unable to open their eyes, and the rolling heat wave hit their faces, and even the little Gu Qian took a comfortable breath.

"Mother, it's good to be in the sun." Gu Qian pulled Su Qing's clothes again and asked, "Mother, why don't you ask Aunt Xu to help your uncle?" ”

Su Qing glanced down at him and said solemnly, "He committed the crime of beheading, no one can save him, everyone is responsible for his words and deeds." People must not only be knowledgeable, but also virtuous. ”

Gu Qian said, "Oh, I know, you have to have both ability and political integrity." ”

Three months later, Gu Wangchen was beheaded.

Su Qing's mother and son bought a coffin and dragged Gu Wangchen's body back to Lin County. It was impossible for Gu Wangchen's bones to be buried in the ancestral grave of the Gu family, so they were buried on the outskirts of Linxian County.
