Chapter 233: Painful Determination
It's just that this news is too shocking, is it true? She really hoped that she was wrong, or else...... Otherwise, what would she do?
Thinking of this, Gu Xixi looked at Shopkeeper Ye as if asking for help, hoping to get some answers from him. However, Shopkeeper Ye didn't squint, didn't look at her, just talked and laughed with Bai Zhixian.
And Ye Feng didn't know it, and followed Bai Zhixian to answer. Since he was over the age of fourteen, Ye Feng deliberately kept a certain distance from Gu Xixi. Speaking of which, this would have been quite normal.
But Gu Xixi didn't know this, and thought that Ye Feng was deliberately alienating her.
He was so close to Bai Zhixian, and he really didn't dare to act rashly.
Pressing down on the endless pain in his heart, and trying to soothe his excited emotions, Gu Xixi piled up a smile and said: "Shopkeeper Ye, what's going on, I haven't understood it for a long time, what dog?" This is obviously my adopted son, then, you can't rob me because he is excellent, I don't rely on it. ”
Since he had to make his own moves, it would be better to use his strength. She asked like this, there was nothing wrong with asking herself, but Shopkeeper Ye had to answer.
It's just that when Shopkeeper Ye heard this, he felt a burst of contempt and happiness in his heart. Hmph, I don't give up yet, I really don't shed tears when I don't see the coffin.
Well, since you put your neck up yourself, then you're welcome. How painful you made me at the beginning, now I will pay you back double. Obviously, you yourself hid your son from me for two years.
It's good now, the wicked person sues first, and he really thinks he's stupid.
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Ye raised his hand and said, "Why doesn't Mrs. know yet?" Oh yes, Madame hasn't been out lately, so I don't know. ”
Speaking of this, Shopkeeper Ye pulled Ye Feng and said kindly: "Speaking of which, God has mercy on our father and son, and I have been looking for it for nearly two years. No, at the family search meeting in Chenjia Village, I unexpectedly learned that the precious immortal fruit planted in Chenjia Village was actually from Ye Feng's hand, and I also said that this immortal fruit was given to him by the child's father. In addition, I also found half a piece of jade jue on this child. Do you know, this jade jue was originally left to him by me back then, hanging around his neck. God, who knew that the son I had been looking for for fourteen years would be by my side all along. ”
"So, madam, I'm sorry, this child is now my son, my own son, so naturally I want to rob you."
After speaking, the shopkeeper Ye said to Ye Feng again: "You have known each other before, so I won't introduce each other to you." ”
Bai Zhixian had already been dragged away by the staff, and at this moment, only Ye Feng, Ye Shopkeeper and Gu Xixi were left in the courtyard.
Gu Xixi had the heart to ask for an understanding, but he was unwilling to be confused like this, and after thinking about it, he said to Ye Feng: "Feng...... Ye Feng, you go out first, I have something to discuss with your father. ”
Before, when the shopkeeper Ye spoke, Ye Feng felt that he was a little abnormal today, not saying anything about yin and yang, and there seemed to be a feeling that he couldn't speak. His smile, in particular, was like a ...... The thrill after revenge.
At this moment, Gu Xixi gritted his teeth and spoke like this, which frightened Ye Feng. He had only one thought in his heart, that is, his father and this county lady must have had a leg.
This idea startled Ye Feng, it was too terrifying, if Bai Zhixian knew, what would be the consequences? It's a man, and he can't stand to wear a green hat. What's more, this is still ancient.
I really can't think about it, so it's better to leave.
Ye Feng was about to leave, but the shopkeeper Ye said: "No need, I have nothing to say to you, Ye Feng, let's go." As he spoke, he pulled Ye Feng and walked out.
It's just that his face is not half angry, and the weird smile like a successful revenge has appeared on his face again.
Sure enough, the most familiar people know how to shoot and you will hurt the most.
Although the sun was very strong, Ye Feng still shivered.
It's terrible, I hope what he thinks isn't true. Bai Zhixian is about to go to the capital to perform his duties, if he knows that his head is green, he will be unlucky if he thinks about it. And his fate is even more difficult to say.
For Bai Zhixian, it was easy to kill them. This is also why Ye Feng has not had the heart to go to the scientific examination until now, or has anything to do with the government.
At the beginning, if it weren't for the abduction, he would not have easily contacted Bai Zhi County. Now, it seems, it's too late.
He didn't want to see that happen.
However, this time and space is a time and space that preaches that "starvation is a small matter, and a loss of temperance is a big thing", and it is not the kind of atmosphere that can be happily related to each other's exes now. Who knows how much Hakuchi County will mind.
Seeing that Shopkeeper Ye directly ignored himself, Gu Xixi sensitively felt that this matter was a conspiracy, at least Shopkeeper Ye did it on purpose to target himself.
When did it become like this between them, and it got to this point again?
Moreover, Ye Feng is also her son, who was born with her hard work in October to conceive, why should he take it for himself!
Thinking of this, Gu Xixi went crazy and knocked all the teacups and pastries on the table to the ground, and those pastries were scattered all over the ground, dotted with stars, just like the relationship between her and the shopkeeper Ye, and the broken ones could not be picked up again.
The huge cracking sound startled the child, and the child began to cry, waking up Gu Xixi, and also startling the nurse and the maids who were waiting outside. Hearing the child's cry, they immediately rushed in, and they didn't want to be punished.
Bai Zhixian can treasure this child now, saying that this child has brought him good luck, so he can't hear this child crying.
Seeing the broken porcelain pieces all over the ground, I didn't dare to ask why, a few people quickly divided labor, cleaned and cleaned, coaxed the children to coax the children, and after a while, everything in the garden was the same, as if nothing had happened.
It's just that the concept of "Ye Feng is my son" has been hovering in Gu Xixi's mind and lingering. After making sure that the child was not crying and fell asleep, Gu Xixi had an idea in his heart.
It seems that everything is the ghost of the Qin family!
Yes, she must have discovered this secret a long time ago, and then secretly manipulated it, I don't know what method she used to make Bai Zhixian take the initiative to recognize Ye Feng, the righteous son.
And now, Shopkeeper Ye obviously misunderstood, thinking that all this was the result of his own deliberate actions. What's even more terrifying is that he thought he deliberately made their father and son close to him but couldn't recognize each other.
Gu Xixi only had this idea in his heart.
And this method made her lose her mind and become angry. She suddenly felt like a puppet, at the mercy of others. In front of her, she was the chairman of the Liqun Society, the lady of the magistrate, the person who was about to go to the capital to enjoy happiness, and the person who had just been promoted to the third level in a row and registered with the emperor.
However, in essence, she is just a poor person who has been manipulated behind the scenes. And that thread is all in the hands of the Qin family.
"If the magistrate is looking for me in a while, you will say that I have an important matter and went to the Gu Mansion, and I will be back soon. You're here to take care of the kids, you don't have to follow me. After saying these words to Cuizhu, Gu Xixi left the garden angrily and walked towards Gu's mansion.
After all, you know, how good is this!
I thought that my uncle was going to the capital to take up a post soon, and he could leave this place of right and wrong far away, away from the past, but how could it be so coincidental! But nothing must happen.
Cuizhu stood in place and was anxious.
After thinking about it, she finally quieted down. If it was ten years ago, with a cherishing temperament, maybe something would have happened. However, now Gu Xixi has matured, and more importantly, she is still the mother of three children, this measure, she doesn't need to be reminded by anyone, she knows it very well in her heart.
If the only way to calm the anger in her heart is to cry and make a fuss, then let her go. It seems that this situation can only be solved by crying. And holding it in the stomach is not necessarily a good thing.
It's just that what Gu Xixi doesn't know is that this time she is destined to be unfavorable. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is self-inflicted. Moreover, the premise is that she is born to the Qin family.
Otherwise, it is estimated that he will die an ugly death.
She was angry and trotted all the way, and when she ran to the Gu Mansion regardless of her image, her hair was a little messy. When the subordinates saw it, they were apprehensive and wanted to report it, but they were also stopped by her cold eyes, so they had to bow their heads and stand still.
It's just that I was shocked in my heart, what happened to make Gu Xixi such a gaffe? It looks like he's trying to find his wife.
The Qin clan was sitting with Master Gu in a rare way, discussing something, when they saw Gu Xixi walking in like this, his eyes were full of hatred.
Seeing this, Qin's heart "chuckled", his heart was not good, could it be that the incident was known by Gu Xixi? When Master Gu said this method, she strongly opposed it, after all, doing so was tantamount to burying a timed **.
However, Master Gu tried his best to say the benefits of doing this, and that he was contacting the old department in the capital to help, and he would definitely transfer Bai Zhi County back. And Bai Zhixian was discussing something with Ye Feng at that time, and after inquiring, the Qin clan judged that this move was feasible.
When the imperial court took a big test, Bai Zhixian moved his family to the capital, and it had nothing to do with it at all. As for Ye Feng or something, it has nothing to do with them.
What's more important is that Ye Feng is her own grandson after all, and if she wants her to slash her own grandson, it will be difficult for her to start if she is as hard-hearted as her. And if Gu Xixi knows about it in the future, he will definitely turn against him.
Therefore, although it was an expedient measure, the Qin clan agreed at that time.
Hey, I blamed myself for being soft-hearted at the time. Man, you should not be soft-hearted at any time.
It's just that Gu Xixi's appearance really made the Qin family very angry, and he simply didn't know what to say, and it was hopeless.
Let's hear what she has to say.
Thinking of this, the smile on Qin's face completely dissipated, and Master Gu also kept his face stiff and didn't speak. The Qin clan took a leisurely sip of tea, waiting for Gu Xixi to speak.
Seeing this, the fire in Gu Xixi's heart was even worse.
Judging from Qin's performance just now, she must have understood her intention. But she is the one who does iniquity, and she is the one who does evil. How could she look like a nobody?
Is it just because she is an old man and an elder?
Thinking of this, Gu Xixi was completely angry, and first said to the maid who was waiting in the house: "You all go out for me, go far away, and don't go near this house." ”
The people who were waiting in the house hurriedly bowed their heads and withdrew, and hid far away as instructed, not daring to come near here.
Seeing that he and his father were left in the house, Gu Xixi said before he spoke: "Mother, I want to ask, why are you doing this?" Yes, I admit that I did something wrong more than 10 years ago, but I paid the price for it. It's just, what's wrong with that kid? You first wanted to put him in the countryside, and then he was abducted by Hanako, and lived a hard life for more than ten years. Yes, it wasn't you, but he did it because of you, do you dare to say that you don't have any responsibility? ”
"Later, I listened to your words and obediently got married and had children, but what did you do to me? One by one, they all came together to bully me, and in front of me, to punish my heart. It's uncomfortable to see me, so you feel good! ”
Sure enough, this was the case, Qin thought in his heart. It's just that after listening to Gu Xixi's words, he was trembling with anger, and he originally wanted to pick up the teacup and fell, but because he was shaking so much, he couldn't even pick up the teacup.
Finally calming down his excitement, Qin Shi said, "Really? In your heart, I've always been so bad, I haven't done anything good? Also, why did you just send all those people away? You have the ability to yell at me, why don't you dare to face these subordinates? That's because you know it's wrong! That's it, that's it, it's me who has worked hard for your father and daughter, and in the end, the bad guy is still me, and the two sides are not human. Yes, how noble and noble you are. ”
With that, he staggered to his feet, almost fell, then straightened his back and walked towards the house.
Leaving Gu Xixi with a confused face, he felt that his anger had nowhere to go, but he didn't know what to do. Why did the Qin clan do this? Besides, isn't she the one who should be angry?
After a long while, Master Gu sighed and said rarely: "Wrongs, they are all wrongs." But I don't blame your mother for this, this time it was my idea. ”
Hearing this, Gu Xixi opened her mouth in surprise, and said for a long time: "Dad, you ......" Haven't you been caring about the world for decades? Why do you have to make your own move this time, or such a stupid trick.
Thinking of this, Gu Xixi reacted suddenly. Yes, with her mother's means, how could it be such a light and light way to deal with it?
Thinking of this, Gu Xixi began to be afraid. If the Qin clan had made a move, Ye Feng would have lost his life a long time ago. Compared to being ridiculed by the shopkeeper Ye in person, she would rather suffer like this and let Ye Feng live.
What is sarcasm? Being alive is more important than anything else.
"At that time, your mother saw that the child was close to her uncle, and she came up with some ideas from time to time, and they were not easy for children to think of, so she became suspicious and asked Zhou Ying to check, and sure enough, there was a problem, it turned out that he was the child who was abducted back then. Besides, this child is indeed a miserable ......"
Miserable? Of course, it's a bitter fate. With a mother like her, and a cold-blooded grandmother like the Qin family, it is difficult to live well.
"Why do you say? The person who abducted him was none other than his so-called master. This monk is from the capital, because he has a disagreement with his master, and he is a lonely man, so he did this in a moment's confusion. It's just that after abducting the three children, they didn't do anything to them, but kept them in captivity in the monastery and made them isolated from the world. At that time, your mother proposed that long pain is better than short pain, and thought that the child would be sent to the edge of the world quietly......"
Speaking of this, Master Gu sighed.
"But I don't agree, I think this child is the flesh and blood of our Gu family, and he is the eldest grandson, and he has suffered so much. Anyway, you and your uncle are going to go to Beijing, and you will never see each other again, so it's better to plan and let your uncle make this child a righteous son...... In this way, it is ......"
Hearing this, Gu Xixi only learned the whole truth of the matter. It's just that instead of being angry, she laughed, and suddenly felt that it was like a big joke.
"Dad is such a good method, even I have to admit that this trick is really powerful. My husband hastened to recognize this child as a righteous son, so that no matter how close I am to him, no one will say anything. In a sense, it can also fulfill the mother-son relationship between me and him. ”
"So what are you making a fuss about? I can't help it! To keep him alive and not to be discovered, I'm ......."
Gu Xixi didn't care about these, she only had betrayal in her eyes.
"It's just, Dad, have you thought about my feelings? If you had told me directly, how could I have been kept in the dark like this? Dad, I'm his mother, and I've been thinking about him all the time for more than ten years. You guys, you ......"
Hearing this, Master Gu's face turned pale. At this moment, he suddenly understood Mrs. Qin's iron-blooded methods. If she had known this, it would have been better for her to bear Ye Feng early, and it would not have been like this.
"No, he is not your son, he is only your adopted son, he was, is, and will be. You regret that you only have three children in this life, and you have not had any children other than that. ”
Master Gu looked at Gu Xixi's eyes and said firmly.
"Dad, you ......"
"I don't need to say anything about it, you know it better than anyone else. Whether you want to lose three children for one child, or live like this, love each other with four children, you choose. Son, my father is old, and so is your mother, and my health is not as good as before, and I can't do much for you anymore. You said that you are not too young, but why can't you change your reckless temperament? Hey, children are all debts, they are all debts. You say how can this be like this in my life? ”
When he was young, he was still powerful in the end. It's just that when I'm getting old, it's time to enjoy the blessings, why are I getting more and more tired.
After speaking, Master Gu also stood up, glanced at Gu Xixi very complicatedly, and said, "This time, your mother was heartbroken by you." ”
After speaking, he also walked towards the house, leaving Gu Xixi standing alone.
After Master Gu left, his words beat on Gu Xixi's heart like a drum, and the words were thousands of pounds, which made her breathless. Master Gu was right, she was indeed a little reckless, and she was also provoked by Shopkeeper Ye.
Over the years, the Qin family has paid so much for her, she naturally knows it.
It's just that, as Master Gu said, she and he are used to it, and they feel that this is what it should be, and that this is what she owes herself.
It's just that the Qin family is also a woman, her mother, and she is willing to do anything for her, but she definitely doesn't owe her.
If there is no Qin Clan?
Thinking of this, Gu Xixi was completely panicked, and then he felt that he couldn't leave the Qin clan at all. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't know what it would be like now.
Gu Xixi suddenly felt that he had lived in vain for so many years.
However, this is the moment when she is sober, completely sober.
Gu Xixi wiped away her tears, stood up, and when she went out, she had already returned to normal, and she was extremely dignified.
She suddenly understood who was not like this, her heart was full of holes, but she kept smiling on her face. The Qin family is like this, she is like this, and the women of the family are probably like this.
It's just that in the past so many years, she has paid too much attention to her feelings.
The Qin family has sheltered her from the wind and rain for many years, and now she is exhausted, and it is really unfilial to say that about her. For the sake of a man, first the shopkeeper Ye, and then Bai Zhixian, she couldn't see the love of the Qin family.
As Master Gu said, this matter is not easy to handle, think about it from another perspective, she may not be able to do better than the Qin family. Hiding it from her is indeed the best choice.
For so many years, how many big and small things the Gu family has encountered, she has never seen the Qin family cry. However, she had just clearly seen that there were tears in Qin's eyes.
It's just that she is not in a hurry to apologize, or rather, the Qin family doesn't need to apologize at all, after all, they are biological mothers and daughters, and they have their own way of getting along.
She lives well, which is the greatest reward for the Qin family.
Back at the county office, Gu Xixi went directly to Bai Zhixian and asked him how far his work had been handed over, and finally said: "Xianggong, I have been in confinement during this time, so many things can't help, now it's okay, my body has completely recovered, and it's time to contribute." If there's anything else you need my help with, you just say, I'll find time. ”
Before, the Qin family had said that she had said many times, and asked her to show the momentum of the housemother and help Bai Zhixian take care of affairs. After all, since the news of Bai Zhixian's promotion came out, it was really busy. But it's better to take care of it, and on the grounds of confinement and discomfort, I don't go out with my children all day.
It's just that she knows in her own heart that she is just avoiding Yao Wushuang and Shopkeeper Ye.
But just like the Qin clan said, they are about to move to the capital, and when they return to the place where they once fought, they will have more communication at that time, will she continue to stay like this and not go out?
Speaking of Yao Wushuang, Gu Xixi suddenly remembered that the reason why the other party seemed to be a different person, from coming to her almost every day to never coming, and with such an attitude, it seemed that he knew something. However, Shopkeeper Ye is also measured, it is one thing to provoke himself, but he will never tell Yao Wushuang the truth.
Otherwise, Yao Wushuang would not have been so calm, and he would have pounced a long time ago.
For Gu Xixi's change, Bai Zhixian was a little surprised. Although he didn't know why Gu Xixi was so closed before, and now he was so enthusiastic as if he had changed into a different person, Bai Zhixian felt that he didn't need to know, he just wanted the result.
After thinking about it, he said to Gu Xi: "Then Mrs. Hard, there are really a few things that you need to deal with." As he spoke, he told the story one by one. Gu Xixi wrote it down carefully, went back to the room to see the child, and then began to arrange things.
She really wanted to get out of here.
In the next few days, Gu Xixi's performance can be called perfect, which is completely what the Qin family has been looking forward to and persuading for many years, but Gu Xixi has not listened to it. Angry is angry, but the Qin family is getting happier and happier.
It seems that it is worth it to be angry this time.
After so many years of hard persuasion, it has no effect at all, but now it's good that I have figured it out myself.
This is the best, people, figure it out by yourself, it is better than anyone to persuade you.
