Chapter 678: After the Gate

Hearing him say this, the seventh master's face was a little unsightly, but this was also expected by him.

Thinking of those things back then, and looking at the only remaining bloodline of the Su family, the seventh master suddenly sighed, "That's it." ”

Time has passed, and now among the remaining older generation, I am afraid that he is the only one who still remembers those things back then.

"Sit down!" The Seventh Master pointed to the mahogany chair next to him.

From the time he came in until now, the attitude of the seventh master has been unclear, and now his gift is a great gift to Su Mo.

Su Mo said 'thank you', slowly moved over and sat down, staring at the seventh master with a pair of eyes.

She could feel that what he was going to say next would definitely subvert her past perceptions.

"Speaking of which, that was decades ago."

Thinking of those dusty pasts, the seventh master pondered for a while, and slowly spoke: "This has to start with your grandmother's generation." ”

Su Mo's grandmother, who is also her grandfather's mother, is a very assertive woman.

At that time, she could make such a decision as a woman, and it was indeed not something that everyone could do.

"Your grandfather is the ninth in this generation, the son of the Ji family, and the only heir to this palace."

The seventh master's speech was very slow, and he sat on the chair in an old state, his eyelids drooped when he spoke, and he looked like he was asleep.

From his mouth, Su Mo heard about his grandfather's life experience for the first time.

The Su family was originally a family of generals, and the men in the family had been in the army for generations, and in that era, the Su family army was strict in discipline and invincible, and was very popular with the imperial court.

At that time, all forces in the imperial court wanted to win over the Su family's army, and when they couldn't win over, they began to suppress and exclude them in various ways.

Open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, and after all, they still can't escape the villain's frame.

The merit is high and shocking, and this one crime alone almost made the Su family beheaded.

The Su family was loyal, but they ended up handing over their military power and returning to the capital to report on their work.

It's okay if it's like this all the time, but it's a pity that the Su family is a military general, and they can't play the game of forming a party for personal gain, disobeying the yang and the yin, and making a false accusation.

In the end, he was sent to a poor country in the south, gave him a mansion, and named a prince with a different surname.

Of course, I don't know what generation this is talking about, but it's been some years.

The seventh master can't remember it clearly when he is old, saying that he went back to check the family tree, and there is a detailed record on it.

What generals, what princes, what genealogies.

When he heard the seventh master say this, Su Mo's brain swelled, and he felt like he had heard a story in a teahouse.

It was only today that she learned that her grandmother was born in the palace and was a noble character.

Later, the Qing Dynasty was defeated, and Gege was no longer popular.

Grandma's father wanted to find her a well-connected family, but it was too chaotic in those days, where to find such a suitable person?

As a result, my grandmother's marriage has been delayed again and again, and she has not yet been married to someone after the double ten.

In those days, a girl who was not married at the age of twenty was already considered an old girl.

Later, one day, my grandmother suddenly said that she wanted to marry her father's personal guard, but my grandmother's father did not agree, so she used a hunger strike to resist.

As mentioned earlier, although Grandma Tai is a woman, she has her own opinions.

The Su family is thin, and in her generation, her brother died young, and later except for a younger brother, who fell to his death while riding a horse.

There is only one child like her left in the family, or she may have been spoiled since she was a child, as long as she insists on doing something, no one can stop it.

In the end, my grandmother got married.

Grandma's father had great ambitions, but he could only stay in this poor and remote country, being an idle prince, and he was depressed all his life.

Now that his daughter had married another guard, he became ill and died of illness not long after.

Su Mo thought that her grandmother's identity at that time, marrying a guard, was indeed a little aggrieved, no wonder her father was so angry.

Needless to say, the guard who married the grandmother must be surnamed Ji.

But what Su Mo didn't understand was that grandma would rather disobey her father's order to marry that person, why did she leave with her grandfather in the end?

The seventh master is old, and when he says that he will rest for a while, Su Mo only feels tormented.

It feels like watching half of the TV and suddenly disappearing, but you want to know the plot behind it and are in a hurry to watch it.

Su Mo was fascinated when she heard this, and she didn't know how many times she pulled her hair before she heard the Seventh Master say, "Speaking of which, this matter is that the Ji family is sorry for you." ”

In that turbulent era, things changed rapidly, and there was not only the current situation, but also the hearts of the people.

After the death of Grandma's father, Grandpa's true nature was slowly exposed, he was no longer timid, and the two often quarreled because of disagreements.

But these grandmothers can endure it, and she chooses it herself, so she has to stick to it whether it's bitter or sweet.

But these patiences completely broke out after learning that the husband had the intention of taking a concubine.

Although Grandma Tai is a traditional woman, she has also been in the school for a few years and has been exposed to some new ideas and concepts.

She couldn't accept that his husband wanted to take a concubine because she didn't have children for the time being, and he couldn't accept serving a husband with another woman.

Grandpa is three years younger than grandma, so he naturally doesn't like the feeling of being in charge all the time, so he goes outside to find a woman.

As a result, the woman outside was pregnant, and the grandmother refused to let him take a concubine.

In the end, it is a woman from the palace, even if the dynasty has fallen, but the arrogance of Ling Ran in her bones is still there, and she would rather break the jade than be complete.

Either divorce, or break off the mind of taking a concubine.

Grandpa didn't dare to commit a crime against the wind, and he didn't know what to do, but in the end, his subordinates gave him a good idea.

Don't let concubines take you!

Yes, then secretly buy a few properties outside, put people in the house outside, and still have a wife and children hot kang.

Of course, these things were done without the help of my grandmother, and she was a deep boudoir, and she almost didn't know about these things without leaving the door.

The two got along peacefully for a few years, and later grandma's child was born, who was Su Mo's grandfather.

This is the sister-in-law of the Ji family, and grandpa loves him very much.

After all, this child has the blood of the Su family in his body, which is different from the children he gave birth to by those women outside, and he has been separated for a while.

However, there is no unventilated wall in this world, and within a few years, Grandma Tai learned about the existence of those women outside, and fell ill in a fit of anger.

Perhaps because she was too desperate, Grandma didn't want to continue like this, so she ran away from home with her young children.

As soon as Grandma left, there was no news, and Grandpa not only did not repent, but intensified.

This time, he finally didn't have to be afraid of his grandmother, and brought those women and children to his home, and while making a fortune in the country, he was busy opening up the branches and leaves for his Ji family.

At that time, the legal system was not perfect, he was crazy about accumulating money, doing whatever he wanted, completely forgetting that he knelt in front of the prince and promised to be loyal to the Su family for the rest of his life.

It wasn't until Grandpa Tai was dying that he looked at the wives and children who were waiting to share the property, looking back on his life, and finally remembered his wife and son-in-law.

That woman is as beautiful as a flower, gentle and virtuous.

Just because he carried her home with a sprained foot, just because he said that he liked her and was willing to follow her forever, he took the initiative to find the prince and desperately wanted to marry him.

I know you're an ambitious person, and you don't mean it to me, but it's a grievance to let you marry someone three years older than you.

Whatever your purpose, I only have two requests.

First, I can never do anything that hurts nature and reason, let alone ruin the reputation of my Su family.

Second, since I am married to you, I can only rely on you in the future, you said that you will follow me for the rest of your life, I hope you can remember your words and not disappoint me.

On the day of marriage, what she said through the hijab, until the moment of death, suddenly rang in his ears.

He still remembers that at that time, he knelt in front of his wife and swore to the sky that he would not fail the Su family, let alone her, but unfortunately he didn't do anything.

Over the years, he has been confused by money and power, and it is not until this moment that he wakes up, but unfortunately there is no chance to make up for it.

He knew very well in his heart that these wives and children who guarded him all day were actually concerned about his property, not about him as a person.

This realization made it a little difficult for him to accept.

He told his children that he wanted to meet his royal wife, and his sons-in-law, and that if anyone could find them, he promised to leave the family property to whomever he could.

Hearing this, for the sake of the Ji family's huge industry, almost everyone went out to find someone, and the people who were filial piety in front of his sickbed were all gone clean at once.

At that time, there was only one person who didn't leave, and that person was Ji Qingsheng's father.

He didn't care who would get those possessions, he only cared about the man who had put him on his shoulders, his grandfather.

The Ji family naturally passed to Ji Qingsheng's father.

At that time, his grandfather made two demands on him, and forced him to kneel in front of the couch and swear that he would never forget the oath for the rest of his life.

The first requirement is to guard the Ji family and the country he has worked so hard to build.

The second request was that he asked Ji Qingsheng's father to promise him that he must find his wife and children, and then hand over the Ji family to his sister-in-law.

Ji Qingsheng's father lived up to expectations, he not only used his own strong means to protect the Ji family, but also found the Ji family's exiled son-in-law, that is, Su Mo's grandfather.

Although at that time, my grandmother had already passed away.

He expressed his intention to Su Mo's grandfather and wanted to invite him back to Ji's house to preside over the overall situation, but he was refused.

Grandpa went back to Ji's house with him and went to his grandfather's grave to worship, but he always remembered his mother's last words and refused to return to Ji's house.

Su Mo probably knows the rest of the matter.

Grandpa is a stubborn temper, he insisted on refusing to return to the Ji family, and the Ji family had no choice but to send juniors to visit him every year, and persuade him by the way, but it was a pity......
