Knowing that Gu Yunqiao had fallen into a psychological shadow, Xu Shuhua felt a trace of guilt in his heart, although it was not her fault, but after all, it was caused by her. Xu Shuhua was still in confinement, and he couldn't comfort Gu Yunqiao in person, so he had to call her to him, wanting to help her untie the knot.

After Gu Yunqiao went, she saw that her sister-in-law's face was pale, and her complexion was not as good as before, as if her essence had been drained. There is also lochia, low back pain...... Wait, the short-term sequelae are simply too many to count, and it is not yet known whether they will develop into long-term sequelae.

It's good that she didn't look at it, but this time, she was even more afraid. The more Xu Shuhua suffered, the more distressed she became, and at the same time, she became more and more reluctant to have children, and kept saying that she would stay at home for the rest of her life and marry without marriage.

Gu Yunqiao was young, and everyone just thought she was talking casually, didn't take it to heart, and passed with a smile.

On the third day of Gu Zhaoxi's birth, he ushered in the "washing three" ceremony, which was intended to wash away filth, eliminate disasters and avoid difficulties, and pray for auspiciousness and blessings for newborns. A few old ladies who helped were smiling with wrinkles on their faces, and they couldn't stop complimenting: "The old woman has lived for most of her life, and she has never seen such a beautiful little doll. ”

"The young master and the young lady are born well, and this little lady is naturally born well. The girl follows her father, this is just a girl, and when the young lady has a little master in the future, she will definitely look even more handsome! ”

"Isn't it? The young master and the young lady are still young, and they will give birth to children all over the yard in the future, and they will be beautiful and handsome one by one, and that is lovely! ”

It was only the third day, and everyone seemed to have forgotten Xu Shuhua's pain and thrill that day, and began to think of her future birth again. Gu Yunqiao's heart sank when she heard this, and she retorted: "Just such a little niece, she almost took the life of her sister-in-law, if she wants to give birth to a child in the yard, in case of another difficult birth, will she still have her life?" ”

The old lady choked and smiled dryly: "Look at what the fourth young lady said, isn't the third young lady safe?" Where is the so much what if? ”

Gu Yunqiao said: "If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, my sister-in-law gave birth to a child once, and she just encountered a difficult birth, who knows if there will be a second time?" The woman gave birth to a child through the ghost gate, and the sister-in-law was lucky, she took a turn in front of the Yama Palace and came back, even so, she should be glad that she had the rest of her life after the catastrophe, how could she urge her to give birth to a child and force her to the ghost gate again? ”

She left no room for words, and the faces of several old ladies were a little ugly: "Fourth Miss said this badly, giving birth to children is to breed heirs for the family, how can you open your mouth and close your mouth to 'ghost gate' and 'cross the catastrophe'?" Isn't this a curse on the young lady? ”

Gu Yunqiao was sharp-tongued, and retorted without stumbling: "Just telling the facts, does it become a 'curse'?" No matter whether you avoid it or not, the reality is like this, only talking about the joy of children around the knee, not talking about the difficulties of women giving birth, is to cover your ears and steal the bell, and deceive yourself! ”

Seeing that a few people had nothing to say, Gu Yunqiao snorted lightly and continued: "I think my brother is right, it's so difficult for my sister-in-law to give birth to Xi'er, why should she give birth to a second one?" It is enough to have such a little niece, there is no need to have another child. ”

The old ladies thought old-fashioned and traditional, and immediately said, "How can this be done? If it's a kid, it's just that, the key young lady is a girl born here, so she has to give birth to a little young master before she can continue the Gu family's incense! ”

Gu Yunqiao glanced at them coldly: "What's wrong with the girl?" It's a shame that you're all women, and you still say such things! To put it mildly, even if my brother doesn't have a son, there is still an eldest brother and a second brother, and they all have sons. To put it mildly, my Songjiang Gu family has a big business, and the side branches are all over the world, I don't know how many heirs I have born, why does my brother have no sons, so he has become the incense of the Gu family? ”

"Even if our family is a small family, what if we don't have a son? If the incense is broken, it will be broken, and there will be no loss of meat! ”

"What are these words! Incense is such a big deal, how can it be said that it will be broken! The old lady was taken aback by her unreasonable words, and subconsciously wanted to refute it, but she didn't know where to start," ...... If you don't say anything else, let's just say that after a hundred years, if you don't have a son or grandchild, who will give you a grave? ”

"What if you have a son and grandson go to the grave, can you still be brought back to life?"

Gu Yunqiao looked at the grandmother who danced the most fiercely, and poked into the hearts of people when she spoke: "Mama Wang, you have raised a gambling son Dagen, and you have been in the house for several years, has he ever taken the initiative to come to see you once?" People don't care when they're alive, and they can expect you to come to your grave when you're dead? It's ridiculous! ”

"Fourth Miss, you!"

Mama Wang was so angry that she almost didn't pout, but she didn't dare to say anything to her because of her identity, so she could only swallow the anger in her stomach, and her face turned blue.

Another old lady couldn't stand it, and came out to persuade: "Fourth Miss, you can't say that." The third young master is eighteen years old in the middle of the flowers, what a scenery and glory, this daughter's family can't take the imperial examination, if there is no son to inherit his mantle, wouldn't it be a pity? ”

Gu Yunqiao glared at her: "My brother is eighteen years old, and he is already a world-class talent, which is enough to add glory to the lintel of my Gu family." Why is it that now not only does he want to be a junior sergeant, but also wants him to give birth to a son who is also a junior sergeant, and the burden of the revitalization of a huge family is on him alone, don't you think it's too bullying? ”

The old lady was unconvinced, and said, "The old woman didn't mean that." The third young master is so promising, he will definitely be a person who does great things in the future, if there is no son to tell and praise his deeds, who can remember him? ”

Gu Yunqiao refuted logically and clearly: "According to what you say, anyone who is not as good as my brother will not have a son." After all, they have no deeds to preach, so what are they going to do with sons? Praise how much money he lost in gambling when he was young, or chewed the root of his tongue? ”

The old ladies listened to the sarcasm in Gu Yunqiao's words, and were half angry, and they couldn't say anything about her, so they could only put down a sentence with a stiff face: "Fourth Miss, the third young master wants to know that you are talking such nonsense, maybe how to teach you a lesson!" ”

"What if I get it? I know that not only will I not teach her a lesson, but I will also praise her! ”

At this time, Gu Yunji strode into the door, and his eyes swept over the old lady who was reluctant for a few moments: "You must know that the real inheritance does not depend on the heirs, but on every future generation." If a person has meritorious deeds and contributions to the world, even if he has no children or daughters, there are many people who sing praises for him. If a person does nothing, even if he has a son who is full of yards, at most one or two hundred years, no one will remember him. ”

"The eunuch of Sanbao went to the West more than 100 years ago, so that my Great Xia Guowei spread overseas, even though he is a eunuch and has no heirs, there are still many people surnamed Zheng who want to get married to him, and they don't even know their real surname Ma, so they hurriedly classify themselves as his relatives and descendants, so as to get a little glory."

Gu Yunji's expression was calm, but there was a faint majesty, which made several old ladies involuntarily bow down and make a humble appearance: "Qiaoqiao is right, the huge Gu family has not yet reached the point where you need to rely on me alone to inherit the incense." I don't care what other people do, but I'm Gu Yunji, it's enough to have a child like Xi'er. ”

Several people looked at each other, didn't dare to refute again, and bowed their heads and responded: "Yes, the old woman understands." ”
