Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Zhou Family
Seeing Gu Zhiqing at this moment, even Old Madam Gu was confused, and wrinkled her eyebrows and said, "Could it really be that Wu'er has lost his way and returned?" ”。
"Mother, people will always grow, and my growth is indeed because of that time when I fell into the water, when people are on the verge of death, they can be enlightened, and since then I have vowed to change my past mistakes and be filial to my mother."
When Mrs. Gu heard this, her lips trembled slightly and said: "Wu'er, this is a prodigal son, and I don't change it, my son has really grown up, and he is a mother..."
At this moment, Gu Zhiqing also felt the long-lost family affection, in his previous life, he avenged his sister-in-law, left his homeland when he was young, and did not return to his homeland for more than ten years to fulfill his filial piety in front of his father, which is also the most guilty thing that Gu Zhiqing reincarnated.
And now, the old lady Gu seems to let his inner guilt get some kind of vent, so he puts all the debts he owes to his parents in the future on the old lady of the Gu family.
After the mother and son complained to each other, Gu Zhiqing stared at Old Madam Gu's eyes and asked, "Mother, you can stay here with Qing'er, the Gu family is really not suitable for you to go back at the moment..."
Old Madam Gu sighed worriedly and said: "For my mother, I also want to leave the Gu family to hide and relax, and even once for my mother, I wanted to go back to your grandfather's house, but you also understand, the Gu family can't do without Wei Niang now, if I leave, leaving your father alone to face those people, I'm afraid that the Gu family will soon change his surname...."
"Mother... You know everything" Gu Zhiqing raised his head suddenly, staring at the old lady of the Gu family in great surprise.
"Qing'er, Wei Niang is from the Zhou family, and they are also considered famous families in Jiangnan, can't they even see their tricks clearly? It's just that the other party's forces are intertwined, and we have a handle in the hands of others, and the mother can only face that little concubine and swallow her anger."
Hearing that Old Madam Gu said such a thing, Gu Zhiqing had to re-examine the old lady of the Gu family in front of her. Sure enough, it was not a loss that came out of the Wumai clan.
"So, does my mother know the relationship between the concubine and the main book?" Gu Zhiqing still asked.
Old Madam Gu bowed her head slightly and said, "The cause of the incident may have something to do with the old body...."
After that, Old Madam Gu wanted Gu Zhiqing to describe an intricate network of kinship relationships about the Jiangnan Wumai clan.
Old Madam Gu actually has a blood relationship with the famous general Zhou of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and he is a cousin of Zhou.
His grandfather also joined the army with Zhou and participated in the rebellion against the 10,000-year rebellion of Qi Qi, so he witnessed the tragic scene of Zhou being cornered by Xiahou Jun.
It is precisely because of this that the Zhou family has a trace of resistance to the current imperial court and the northern wealthy families.
So they secretly contacted Zhou and some Wumai clans secretly about some things, in short, it was something that could not be explicitly stated as a human being.
Who knew that the matter was revealed, which eventually led to the suppression of the Zhou family's martial arts, and many of Mrs. Gu's cousins and uncles were kicked out of the army, and they were also threatened by a northern clan with that contact letterhead...
"When the concubine entered the Gu family's old mansion that day, Weiniang was resolutely opposed, if she hadn't taken out that letterhead, Weiniang wouldn't have pinched her nose and admitted this family business..."
With Mrs. Gu being born in the martial arts and being the wife of the Gu family, as long as she insists on refusing to let the concubine enter the mansion, then even Master Gu has to give up this family business.
"Mother, which one is the northern wealthy family you are talking about?" Gu Zhiqing suddenly realized that he seemed to have touched the force behind the main book.
Old Madam Gu shook her head and said: "I am a woman's family, and I don't let my mother's affairs be mixed up, but I know that they have offended a wealthy family in the north, but I don't know which one."
Old Madam Gu replied, which made Gu Zhiqing feel a little regretful, and she was about to find a breakthrough, but it stopped abruptly.
"Count it as a mother, I haven't been in contact with the Zhou family for several years, and I was worried that the Gu family would be involved because of this matter, which made Wei Niang endure the feelings of missing her family and keep a distance from it, and finally failed to avoid this disaster."
"Fortunately, my son has grown up, and my mother's heart has finally landed" Old Madam Gu stared at Gu Zhiqing with soft eyes, making him feel the long-lost maternal love.
However, at this time, Gu Zhiqing was completely immersed in the historical records of Zhou and his bloodline martial clan, and his understanding of the history of the Eastern Jin Dynasty during that period of time was also thanks to a TV series in later generations, which told the history of Zhou's crusade against Qi Wannian.
As for the person in Zhou, Gu Zhiqing has long been familiar with it, and when he was a child, an old man told him the story of the three evils of the famous Zhou.
Gu Zhiqing never dreamed that part of the blood in his body would also come from one of the three evils of this famous person.
"Mother, you can live here with peace of mind, the children promise that they will not dare to do anything to Master Gu" After a while, Gu Zhiqing got up and looked at Old Madam Gu with a fixed gaze.
"Qing'er, are you already..."Old Madam Gu's face changed suddenly: "Child, you must not get involved in this matter, you don't know how cruel this kind of gate valve battle is, the slightest carelessness is full of disasters, my mother is your only son, don't be so fast for a lifetime."
Old Madam Gu clearly knew the powerful power of the Northern Gate Valve, and she didn't want her own son to provoke those people.
"Mother, don't worry, children have their own measure" Gu Zhiqing replied with a firm expression, and Mrs. Gu still wanted to comfort her.
I heard an old singer come in and say, 'The birthday banquet has been prepared, please invite the old lady and the son to dine together'
Gu Zhiqing had long been accustomed to hearing this, but Old Madam Gu's ears were not deaf, and she suddenly heard that something was wrong: "Qing'er, how can you let them be so open-mouthed, is it said by ordinary people that they eat?" ”
Only then did Gu Zhiqing realize that unconsciously, he was guided by those old singers to acquiesce in many habits.
When you think about it, these things are a bit out of the norm.
Could it be that they want to cook their own food and be emperors?
Gu Zhiqing felt a sigh in his heart, and he couldn't help but feel shocked by the ambition of those old singers.
"Mother, this is their joke, don't take it seriously"
Gu Zhiqing can understand them, but it doesn't mean that Old Madam Gu is also successful.
Old Madam Gu said earnestly: "I will replace them tomorrow and find a new batch of servants for your mother to come over."
Gu Zhiqing smiled helplessly and said: "Mother, they are not servants, they are masters, and this house was purchased in their name."
"What?" Old Madam Gu was so angry by Gu Zhiqing that she turned pale and said: "You are such a bastard, you don't want to eat this birthday banquet, you want to go back to the house for your mother."
