Chapter 469: Public opinion is improving
Xu Chengyu just sighed subconsciously, but he didn't really feel sorry for Xu Shuchang, seeing that Xu Shuhua was still eating as he was when he was a child, Xu Chengyu smiled at the corner of his mouth: "They are all mothers, why are they still as jealous as when they were children?" Xu Shuchang is nothing, you are my daughter, I can't hurt anyone but you. ”
Xu Shuhua has always been dissatisfied with Xu Chengyu's attention to Xu Shuchang, and felt that that waste was not worth his father's efforts for him. Seeing Xu Chengyu again today, I only feel a little older than the last time, Xu Shuhua was already sad in his heart, and now he will talk about the misunderstanding, and the sour astringency will come to his heart together.
Xu Shuhua's eyes were red, and he turned his head to wipe away his tears in anger: "What about being a mother, I am a grandmother, you are also my father, can't I still be jealous?" ”
"Okay, good, you can eat, of course you can eat." Xu Chengyu was helpless and teased, "Okay, don't cry, you see, your husband is laughing at you." ”
Xu Shuchang's matter will be like this, in the final analysis, it is because Gu Yunji insists on upholding the law of the country and refuses to compromise, he is most afraid that Xu Shuhua will be complained by Xu Chengyu because of his support for himself, and now he is sincerely happy to see that their father and daughter are reconciled as before.
Seeing Gu Yunji really have a smile in his eyes, Xu Shuhua couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and glanced at him, but his words were said to Xu Chengyu: "He dares." ”
The smile on Gu Yunji's face grew; "Don't you dare, don't you dare...... The lady has become famous in Shaoxing Mansion these days, and the people praise you as the teacher's daughter, and you have the style of Xu Wenzheng. They all said that I had cultivated several lifetimes of good fortune to marry a wife like you, how dare I laugh at you? ”
mentioned this matter, although Xu Chengyu did not say it explicitly, he was still very proud of his daughter in his heart. He looked at Xu Shuhua with a smile: "Although reputation is something outside the body, there is no need to deliberately pursue it, but a good reputation is always better than a bad reputation, and I am relieved to see that you are doing well." ”
"Yun Ji is an official of the imperial court, you can't leave the place for too long, it will take time to come and go, tonight we can be regarded as a reunion, there is no need to spend it all the time with me, you can go back tomorrow morning."
I haven't seen Xu Chengyu for long, and I'm about to leave again, Gu Yunji is a little reluctant: "In addition to being the prefect of Shaoxing, I also have experience in the capital of Zhejiang, and Hangzhou Mansion also has my office yamen, we can stay here for a few more days to accompany you." ”
Xu Chengyu shook his head: "You have your things to do, and I also have my own things to be busy with, so there's no need to revolve around me all the time." Recently, there have been a lot of chores in the academy, and I can't leave, so tomorrow if you don't leave, I will go back. ”
Looking at the white hair on Xu Chengyu's sideburns, Xu Shuhua's eyes swelled with sourness again, but he didn't want his father to be affected by his emotions, so he lowered his eyes in disguise: "No matter how busy the academy is, my father must pay attention to his body." We're not with you, you take care of yourself. ”
Xu Chengyu smiled: "Don't worry, I'm not old enough to be useless, don't worry about me." ”
——
The next day, Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua couldn't resist Xu Chengyu, so they had to take their daughter back to Shaoxing Mansion and agreed to meet again during the next Spring Festival.
went to Hangzhou Mansion, and the misunderstanding between the couple and Xu Chengyu was solved, but the knots with the Xu family were still there. Xu Shuhua thought that it would be equivalent to severing contact with the Xu family in Shaoxing from now on, and he was even ready to have no mother's family, but he didn't want Xu Ziqi to take the initiative to come to show goodwill.
Not long after the two returned to Shaoxing Mansion, Xu Ziqi called their family of three to the Xu family's mansion for dinner in the name of their family reunion. Although Xu Ziqi didn't say it explicitly, he was very kind at the table, and faintly apologized, as if he was afraid that the two of them would have a bad heart.
Gu Yunji and his wife were certainly surprised by this, but after all, the two families were in-laws, and it was naturally best to get along in harmony, so they tacitly agreed that nothing had happened.
Even on the day Xu Shuchang left Shaoxing Mansion and was taken to the southwest for exile, the Xu family did not come to see him off, and it seemed that they really didn't care.
Afterwards, Gu Yunji learned from Mei Feng that long before their family went to Hangzhou Mansion, Xu Chengyu wrote several letters in a row and scolded Xu Ziqi. said that he was confused and shielded Xu Shuchang for a while, almost causing the entire Xu family to overturn, and woke up Xu Ziqi alive.
Xu Ziqi was patronized and angry before, Gu Yunji didn't think about human favors, as the son-in-law of the Xu family, not only did he not help the Yue family, but he wanted to arrest their people. But at the same time, he ignored how bad the sins Xu Shu often committed had had a bad impact.
But as long as Gu Yunji is not related to the Xu family, but as long as he is not the son-in-law of the Xu family, he can completely beat all the Xu family members for harboring the same crime when Xu Ziqi refuses to hand over the prisoner, and take strong measures from the government to arrest him.
If Xu Shuhua did not force Xu Shuchang out that day, once the Xu family obstructed the government's anti-Japanese affairs, it would not be impossible for Emperor Jingfeng to end the entire Xu family in a fit of anger.
Xu Ziqi has never done anything in the government, and after being the patriarch for a long time, he can only see whether his majesty has been offended, and he has the arrogance of a local squire.
originally intended to complain to Xu Chengyu, but he was scolded by him in several letters in succession. Xu Ziqi, who received the letter, woke up suddenly, scared out of a cold sweat, where did he dare to complain about Gu Yunji and his wife anymore, and hurriedly put down his body and took the initiative to show goodwill, lest they really hate themselves.
Even the rest of the Xu family looked at Xu Shuhua with gratitude - fortunately she insisted at that time, and she had to hand over Xu Shuchang under pressure, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
The people of Shaoxing Mansion were very surprised by this, Gu Yunji and his wife had a merciless quarrel with the Xu family, thinking that the two families were going to turn their faces, but they didn't want to have a better relationship.
The storytellers in the local teahouse had a very sharp nose, and seeing this, they made up a new chapter in the story of the anti-Japanese war within two days. Gu Yunji and Xu Shuhua are still undoubtedly positive images, described as great, glorious, and righteous, and even faintly have a tendency to become protagonists.
The Xu family, represented by Xu Ziqi, became bewitched by the wicked and confused for a while and opposed the government, and later woke up and remorseful, and finally changed his past and reconciled with the "protagonist husband and wife".
Some time ago, the people who were still scolding the Xu family for not distinguishing between right and wrong felt that they knew that they could change their mistakes, and began to say that they were worthy of being the descendants of Xu Wenzhenggong, in the end, there were still some styles handed down from their ancestors, and for a while, the reputation of the Xu family was a little better than before.
As for this "wicked person", it is naturally Xu Shuchang who colluded with the Japanese Invaders.
Xu Shuchang, who was walking on the long road of exile, never thought that he would be such a cowardly waste man who would one day become the "villain" in the story, which was probably the most famous time in his life.
As soon as Xu Shuchang's case came to an end, it meant that Gao Shishu's supply was completely cut off, the imperial court began to seize the initiative again, and the anti-Japanese situation gradually developed in a better direction.
At the same time, Yu Jingming came with the news: the Francophone merchant who sold firearms to Gao Shishu was contacted.
