7 Rumors
Gu Wei fell into the eyes of the person in front of him, and the expression in those eyes was gentle and soft, with a hint of warmth.
His tone was calm and soothing, with no pity or indignation, as if he were merely stating the obvious fact that he genuinely believed that no one was more important than himself.
But no one had ever told him that it was not worth it.
No one ever cared if he had hurt himself.
This is a small injury......
No one would have found out, but this person did.
This is the first time he has been told to take good care of himself.
The other party's palm was warm and powerful, slowly penetrating from the skin, as if it was some kind of poison that confusing people's minds, making Gu Wei forget to react for a while.
Gu Wei just quietly lowered his eyes and watched Song Yan treat his wounds for him.
Washing, medicating, bandaging.
Every step of Song Yan is not pretending to be in the hands of others, he is focusing on doing this, as if he is really important to him.
But why?
It's just a matter of seeing the color......
Song Yan was worried that the maids were not careful enough, so she helped Gu Wei treat her wounds with her own hands, and sighed slightly in her heart, don't look at Gu Wei's usual indifferent and unfazed appearance, after all, he is a child who is less than twenty years old, how can he not feel it?
If a person is accustomed to facing pain, it is not his fault, and he should not take it for granted.
Song Yan couldn't see Gu Wei's lifeless appearance.
Song Yan stood up and smiled: "This is in the Song family, not the Gu family, next time I meet someone I don't like, just let people drive them out." ”
Saying that, he was annoyed and said: "I only kicked him just now, it's really cheap for him, and he dares to bully this young master!" ”
"It's for your husband that you have been wronged, you say, how can you compensate you for your husband? Why don't you cook a meal for you yourself? Song Yan bent down and said with a smile.
Gu Wei lifted his eyes, a pair of peach blossom eyes sparkled in front of him, and a smile spread from the corners of his eyebrows and eyes.
If he wants to make himself happy, then ...... It cannot be said that there is no effect at all.
Gu Wei looked at him for a long time, pushed his hands and left, turning his wheelchair and leaving, leaving only Song Yan with a back.
Song Yan didn't care, and shouted behind him: "If you don't say it, I'll let you agree!" ”
The guys in the kitchen saw Song Yan coming in person, they were very nervous, and they thought that what they did was wrong, the young master came to Xingshi to ask for the guilt, who knew that Song Yan rolled up his sleeves and started to do it himself.
The Song family is wealthy, and there is no shortage of delicacies and delicacies in the kitchen, and there are many things that Song Yan has never seen.
However, Song Yan didn't use these rare ingredients, he turned around, just made a pot of hand-rolled noodles himself, and laid two poached eggs.
The cook asked a little worriedly, "Young Master, do you want me to add two more dishes to you?" ”
He had never seen the young master eat so lightly.
Song Yan shook his head: "No need." ”
He returned to the courtyard with two bowls of noodles and called Gu Wei to come out to eat.
Although Gu Wei was still silent, he silently pushed the wheelchair over, glanced at the noodles, and then at Song Yan.
Is this the kind of food that someone is ashamed to make for themselves?
Song Yan didn't blush at all, and said with a smile: "Although it is simple, I make it myself, and I eat it to my heart, isn't it better than any food?" ”
Gu Wei: ......
This narcissistic and arrogant look is similar to the rumors.
Having said that, Gu Wei picked up the bowl.
Song Yan also picked up the bowl and ate, his cooking skills are not bad, naturally he doesn't only know how to make noodles, after all, he has to support himself since he was a child.
However, every time he is in a bad mood, he wants to make a bowl of noodles for himself.
He was adopted when he was five years old, and when he first came to his new home, he also enjoyed a brief period of warmth, but soon his adoptive parents had a child of their own, and he became that nonexistent, superfluous existence again, and no one would think of him, no one would care about him.
It was raining again after school that day, and he didn't bring an umbrella, so he stood alone under the eaves, wanting to wait for the rain to stop before leaving.
But it rained for a long, long time that day, and it didn't stop, and his trouser legs were wet, and the school was closing, and finally ...... The teacher who saw him walked towards him.
The teacher was a very gentle and simple woman, she looked at him in surprise, and then said nothing, opened the umbrella and took him home, and cooked him a bowl of noodles, which was as simple as that.
Since that day, the teacher has always paid attention to him, both in his studies and in life, and they have kept in touch for so many years until the teacher died of illness.
Later, Song Yan had a stable job.
He was no longer hungry, but he always remembered that the bowl of noodles was the only warmth on that cold and rainy night, so it was never the food itself that mattered, but that someone walked into his world.
He hoped that Gu Wei could meet such a person, even if it was not himself, but at least someone could walk into his world and take his hand out of the endless fog.
As long as you don't give up, you can finally get a glimpse of the sky.
………………
Since Gu Siqi came over to make trouble, Song Yan reprimanded his subordinates again, strengthened precautions, and Yun Xueyuan returned to its former tranquility.
In order to make Gu Wei happy, Song Yan asked people to collect some things from time to time, such as interesting scripts, delicious food, etc., of course, he also enjoyed it himself, and it wasn't all for Gu Wei.
The days of eating, drinking, and having people serving at home were very comfortable, and the doctor was asked to see Gu Wei for diagnosis and treatment every once in a while, and from time to time he listened to the director report on some business matters.
On this day, Song Yan was sitting in the yard roasting sweet potatoes, and the colorful clothes came over mysteriously, leaned over and whispered a few words in his ear.
Song Yan was stunned when he heard this, turned his head and quietly glanced inside the room, only to see Gu Wei looking down at the book, not looking at him at all, and then lowered his voice and said, "Say it." ”
Caishang cleared her throat: "I've been inquiring for a long time, and I've asked a lot of people, and I've found Erya's aunt's sister-in-law's aunt and aunt, so I found out about this!" I said, young master, how do you want to reward me? ”
Song Yan poked the stinky girl's head and said, "I will reward you with one hundred taels and rest for three days, but are you still satisfied?" ”
Caishang smiled and said, "The young master is the best." ”
Song Yan: "Okay, let's talk about it." ”
Caishang said: "It is said that the Gu family was originally not from Suming City, but the famous family of Anyang City, twenty years ago, Gu Yuanxiu was the sister-in-law of the Gu family, and married Jiang Ruxue, the eldest girl of the Jiang family, the two of them are also a good match, they should be a pair of fairy couples, but not long after they got married, they encountered the demon clan raging, the monks in the city went to resist, and the monks of the Gu family and the Jiang family naturally went, but the demon clan was unstoppable, seeing that Anyang City was about to be lost, many people fled in a hurry, only the Jiang family monks stayed to fight to the death with the demons, Although he bought others time to escape, the Jiang family was all killed in battle, and only Jiang Ruxue survived. ”
Song Yan looked silent.
Jiang Ruxue went to the battlefield with her pregnancy, and at the last moment, it is said that she was pushed away by her family and escaped with her life, but when she returned home, she found that Gu Yuanxiu had fled with her family property. Soon Anyang City fell, Jiang Ruxue didn't have time to escape, and together with the rest of the people, she was trapped in Anyang City. Caishang was a little indignant when she said this, and after a pause, she continued: "Six months later, the immortal lord and the twelve elders fought with the demon lord without a return, and after the battle of Fuzhou, the demon lord was a retreat, and the demon clan dragons lost their fighting spirit without a leader, and the immortal gate regained the lost ground in one go, which rescued the people trapped in Anyang City. ”
Jiang Ruxue finally came to Suming City, found Gu Yuanxiu, and gave birth to a child not long after, but ...... Because Jiang Ruxue once fell into Anyang City, and the entire Jiang family died in battle, and she was the only one who survived, there was a lot of gossip, and even some people even said......" Caishang hesitated.
Song Yan said in a deep voice: "Go on." ”
Caishang said in a low voice: "There are even rumors that Young Master Gu is a demon clan's evil seed, but I know it's definitely not!" No matter how the young lady looks at it, she is a human, how can she be a demon? It's all those people who chew on the root of their tongues. ”
Song Yan's eyes are heavy, and his words can also kill people, what about rumors? The key depends on what Gu Yuanxiu thinks, but now it seems that Gu Yuanxiu probably minds.
But it is not known whether it is this rumor that he cares about, or whether he can't face his own despicable deeds.
"In short, Jiang Ruxue came back with a lot of hard work, but she had to suffer from these gossips, and she was not loved by her husband, and she died depressed within a few years." Caishang said: "And as soon as Jiang Ruxue died, Gu Yuanxiu married his current wife, Qin. ”
"The Qin family was originally inferior to the Gu family, just an ordinary small family, but the Gu family is not our locals, and the Qin family has another Qin Zhang who worshiped the immortal gate, and he has become an upstart in Suming City, and the limelight is better than the declining Gu family, so the Qin family has a very high status in the Gu family."
The Qin family soon gave birth to another son to Gu Yuanxiu, as for the original son-in-law Gu Wei, the Gu family said to the outside world that he was weak and sick, and it was not suitable to see people at home, as for how to treat him, only the Gu family itself knew. The servants of the Gu family are also very strict-mouthed, and they are all secretive about the eldest young master, but I still heard a little, vaguely saying that the eldest young master has a bad life in the Gu family, and the Qin family is actually jealous on the surface and dislikes him very much. ”
Caishang said: "That's all I heard. ”
Song Yan waved his hand and said, "I know, you go down." ”
Originally, he didn't plan to care about this, he just wanted to find an opportunity to leave, but Gu Wei was sent over with a broken leg, as the eldest son, even the son of his stepwife dared to be so humiliated, it was really unusual, Song Yan thought about inquiring, so if there was any accident, he would know better.
It's just that it's even more sighing to learn.
Gu Yuanxiu is really a selfish and despicable villain, if he hadn't left his wife and fled, how could he let his wife fall into the hands of the demons, and then because of mere gossip, he acquiesced in others hurting his children.
Now that he knows this, Song Yan finally made up his mind that he couldn't let Gu Wei return to the Gu family, even if he wanted to leave, he had to prepare a way out for Gu Wei first.
Otherwise, it would be tantamount to pushing Gu Wei into the fire pit again.
Inside the house.
Gu Wei's gaze swept outside.
The colorful clothes whispered in Song Yan's ear for a long time, what did he say? Isn't it about him to be a thief like this?
A hint of ridicule appeared in Gu Wei's eyes.
During this period of getting along, Gu Wei did not deny that Song Yanxu cared about him, but so what?
It's just a whim.
Gu Wei has not been cared for in his life, but these ridiculous cares can't withstand any wind and rain, and he is fragile and vulnerable.
His mother should have loved him, otherwise she would not have given birth to him, in his distant and vague memory, his mother was always depressed, although moody, sometimes she would look at him in a complicated way, and sometimes she would hold him speechless and cry, he didn't understand why this happened, but ...... At that time, he only needed to be by his mother's side, but suddenly one day he woke up, and his mother hanged herself and killed herself.
She couldn't face such a world and felt miserable, so she left alone.
She didn't want to survive for him.
She didn't love him that much either.
He was left alone in this world by a man.
As for his father, he didn't come once a year, and every time he came, his attitude was very cold, and his mother was the same, and then he stopped coming.
Until my mother died, my father didn't come to see me.
He was trapped in that small yard and watched his mother's body slowly decompose...... The next time I saw my father, it was at my father's wedding feast.
On that day, Gu Fu was overjoyed, the nursing home was drunk and neglected to guard, he secretly escaped, and saw his father dressed in bright red, holding another woman's hand, smiling proudly.
It was the first time he saw his father's smile.
He was quickly taken back to the courtyard, where his mother's stinking body was finally taken away, and the guard at the door was watched more closely.
The servant is the most good at looking at people's eyes, so naturally he can't let him disturb the master's joy.
In the cold winter, he curled up in the cold room, no one delivered food for three days, there was nothing to eat here, not even firewood for heating, he thought he was going to die......
In the end, it was the mother's maid who broke her head and bleed, saying that the old man was happy that the dead were unlucky, so she finally begged someone to bring food.
She was rescued by her mother from Anyang City back then, and she was loyal to her mother, and in this indifferent Gu family, only she was willing to stay in this remote courtyard.
He watched her face difficulties, kneeling in front of others again and again, returning with injuries again and again, and they ate leftovers and survived in this small courtyard.
He thought it would go on like this......
But one day, she suddenly came back with a steaming meal, and gold and silver, and she changed into a clean new dress, and her delicate and beautiful face was slightly decorated, like the petals of a flower blooming in spring.
It was the most beautiful side he had ever seen her, and the last he had ever seen her.
She told him that she was getting married.
She met a husband who loved her and protected her, and was willing to take her out of here, but she couldn't take him away because he was the eldest young master of the Gu family.
She left the gold and silver soft, gently admonished him, and finally hid her face and wept, and reluctantly left him.
He just calmly watched her back as she left, and for some reason, he wasn't surprised at all.
No one should be with him in this quagmire, and he will not see the light of day.
Or perhaps, he has been waiting for this day all along.
From the day his mother left.
Just waiting for someone to leave him.
But it doesn't matter, he's seven years old, and even if he's alone, he can live.
He would creep out of here, and the lazy nurse wouldn't find out, and he would go to the kitchen to steal food, and go to the pigsty to pick up leftovers...... Although he didn't know why he had to live.
Survival...... It's like an innate instinct.
So that he can survive in a harsh environment.
I don't know how long it has been.
Another day, he sneaked into the kitchen in the dead of night, but he didn't find any leftovers, and it was not uncommon for him to go home empty-handed, but when he turned around...... But in the inconspicuous place around the corner, I saw a hot bun wrapped in oiled paper.
He pretended to leave with the bun, then crept back and saw the old servant who swept the kitchen there, looking at him with pity in the direction he had left.
Later, every once in a while, he could always find food here, sometimes steamed buns, sometimes steamed buns, sometimes pastries, and very rarely, half a roast chicken.
At that time, he did not know what mercy and charity were, but since this man had no intention of harming him, he was like a beast lurking in the darkness, haunting here to take food from others.
They had never spoken a word face to face, and everything seemed like some kind of tacit understanding, and it was also the occasional kindness of this old servant that made his life less difficult in this cold winter.
A year has passed.
Spring is here again.
He crept into the kitchen as usual, and took the food from the corner, because he had been hungry for days, and this time he ate a little hastily, and then suddenly began to have a sharp pain in his abdomen.
He curled up and fell to the ground, heard footsteps around him, and was surrounded by a group of minions, and he looked up with difficulty.
I saw a little boy, the boy was white and pure, wearing gold and jade, with a longevity lock on his chest, and a maid and servant standing beside him, the boy had bright black eyes, looked at him with interest, and asked the maid next to him: This is the cheap seed?
The maid said yes.
The boy's immature face showed disgust, as if he had seen something dirty, and he said: "The hands and feet are so unclean, maybe it is really a demon race, this kind of person, why should he be my brother."
The pain made his face pale, but he didn't have any expression, just looked at the boy silently.
The boy probably didn't like him like this, showed a bad look, and said in a childish and innocent tone: How can I teach you a lesson? I see, come on, bring that old guy up.
The old servant was escorted up.
The boy said: A cheap slave like you who guards and steals from himself, originally our Gu family could not stay, but you may have been bewitched, and now you will be given the opportunity to atone for your sins. You personally teach him a lesson, let him know that he is wrong, and I will let you go.
The stick was shoved into the old servant's hand.
Gu Wei's black eyes were unwavering, and he watched the old servant come over.
The old servant hesitated only for a moment, then raised his stick and struck it down.
He was poisoned and couldn't move, he couldn't resist, he could only let the sticks hit his body, he heard the sound of bones breaking, and the fishy sweetness couldn't stop surging up from his throat, and each stick seemed to knock him deeper into the dust.
The old servant persuaded while beating: You should admit your mistake to the young master.
He gritted his teeth and said nothing.
He doesn't feel that he is at fault, he just wants to live, is it also wrong to live?
Blood flowed down his forehead and spread to his eyes, his vision became gray and blurred, and the whole world seemed to be red, what a beautiful color...... He chuckled softly.
The sticks that fell were heavier each time.
Just a moment before he lost consciousness, he saw someone come up to stop him, saying that if he was really killed, it would be difficult to explain, and it would not be good for the reputation of the Gu Mansion if it was spread out, anyway, he would not seem to live long if he was like this, and when the time came, he would say that he died of illness.
He vaguely saw that the old servant showed a flattering expression to the boy, and begged again and again, saying that he really tried his best, but this cheap breed was too stubborn, and he was also confused by a moment of soft-heartedness, and he would never dare to do it again in the future, so don't drive him out.
From the beginning to the end, the old servant did not look back at him again.
He closed his eyes, no longer hearing the cacophony of sounds, and his ears were finally clear.
Maybe I'm going to die this time......
It's good.
It occurred to him for a moment.
But sadly, he woke up again, and his life was so hard that he didn't even die like this.
What a pity to disappoint those who want him to die......
And he finally understood a truth, that is, don't indulge in any nihilistic emotions, don't pin your hopes on anyone, because these ridiculous emotions are fragile and vulnerable in the face of reality.
Eventually, they will all abandon him for a variety of reasons.
And Song Yan is the same.
