The sturdy life of crossing

Chapter 141 Gu Family

Mrs. Gu lives in a remote and quiet courtyard. Since her eldest daughter got married, she seldom came out for a walk, but she was also disturbed by the big commotion in the mansion today. She came out and asked, "What's the matter? What happened in the mansion?" What's wrong?"

The maids and women in the yard looked at each other in blank dismay. In fact, they were all taken care of by Mrs. Chen. In the past, they never treated Mrs. Gu as their real master. Now the rumors from outside have also reached their ears, but how should they say to Mrs. Gu? truth?But if you don't say it, you can't hide it. Sooner or later, Mrs. Gu will know the truth.

Thinking of this, her legs became weak and she knelt down, seeing the servants kneeling all over the yard, Gu felt bad, and said lightly: "Since you don't say anything, I'll go out and have a look myself. "

"Ma'am..." A mother-in-law hurriedly knelt and crawled over to hug Gu's leg.

"Bold maidservant, I think you are clearly that bitch of the Chen family, how dare you stop the majestic Mrs. Uncle." Unexpectedly, an old lady of the clan rushed over, spat on the maidservant, and looked at Gu's Their eyes are sympathetic and gloating. These clansmen are attached to the uncle's mansion for a living. In the past, they had to fawn on Mrs. Chen to see her face, but there is no one who is not angry behind the scenes. Who is Mrs. Chen?Even though they were called Mrs. Chen in the house, they were actually just a concubine. Now that the matter was exposed, they couldn't wait to come and uphold justice.

"My nephew, you have been deceived by these lowly maidservants. They have teamed up with that bitch of the Chen family to deceive you for more than 30 years. Back then, you gave birth to the eldest son of the uncle's mansion, the legitimate eldest son of the uncle's mansion, but was transferred by the bitch If it were your grandniece now, I feel sorry for your own child who was thrown into the valley by her to suffer for more than 30 years. Now the fortune has come and passed the Jinshi exam, but my nephew is also blind. Look at the concubine born in the concubine's room, and push your own child to the Gu family... Gu's head was buzzing, and she couldn't listen to the rest of the words, and kept echoing in her mind, "The one born back then was the eldest son of the uncle's family." , was transferred into a baby girl by Chen's "In this case, there was a light sound in the hand, and the string of beads burst, and the beads rolled down one after another and scattered all over the ground.

"Niece and daughter-in-law, don't you know that your dystocia was at the hands of that bitch of the Chen family? At that time, she hooked up with the eldest nephew before she even entered the house, and put her hands into the uncle's mansion...

"Pfft..." Gu spat out a mouthful of blood, and he collapsed limply.

"Nephew and daughter-in-law." The old lady of the clan screamed, and rushed to save her. Ouch, the stimulation was too much, and I couldn't bear to vomit blood. How could I have inherited half of the strength of character from General Yun Qing, "You bitches What is the servant girl doing kneeling? Why don’t you quickly help your niece and daughter-in-law into the room and ask the doctor to go? Don’t think about it, that bitch Chen can’t even protect herself now, and she can take care of you.”

The servants also became confused.

Gu Mansion.

Jian Leyang looked at Gu Yinquan with interest, Xie Wen once mentioned it several times in front of him, and this was the first time he met a person who looked so similar to himself.

Gu Yinquan was very uncomfortable being looked at by such wanton eyes, his scalp was numb, but he was a little envious in his heart, because he couldn't do Jian Leyang's wanton and magnanimous, and he felt that he was similar to himself in appearance and also a brother Jian Leyang is actually very happy.

Gu Yinzhen turned back and forth between the two with bright eyes, and in this hall, Jian Leyang was also the focus of everyone's attention. Look at him, then look at Brother Quan, if it wasn't for Mrs. Gu who brought him back , They really dare not imagine that there is another person who is so similar to their ancestors, General Yun Qing.

Gu Jin is Gu Yinquan's father. When he saw Jian Leyang for the first time, his jaw almost dropped. Brother Quan is right. Standing with Brother Yang is more like a pair of twins than real sister: "Brother actually You didn't tell me earlier, so I could prepare myself a little bit, which made me almost retaliate...

"What do you think? Lord Feng thinks that Cousin Jian is the illegitimate son of Uncle Nan Ping, and you don't think the same... Gu Min joked, could it be that the second brother thinks that Brother Yang is also his illegitimate son? How dare the second brother?" Yes I do.

Gu Jin rubbed his nose in embarrassment, and muttered: "Maybe someone switched him with the real sister." This is also a joke because he knew about the switch in the Nanping uncle's mansion.

Gu Yinlin grabbed Jian Wenyuan and curiously asked him about their family and Jian Leyang's situation. He didn't expect to encounter such interesting people and things. The Dong family didn't feel this way. Compared with the aunt, Jian Dong's family was more like the Gu family. Of course, Jian Leyang's appearance also accounted for a large part of the reason.

Jian Leyang's family stayed in Gu's residence for more than half a day, and had lunch with Mrs. Gu. Many members of the Gu family were scattered in various places in the capital. There are only descendants here, and the number of people is relatively simple.

As juniors, Jian Leyang and Jian Wenyuan received a lot of gifts from the elders. Because they came to Gu's mansion directly from the palace, Mrs. Jiang went back to the mansion to fetch the gifts they had prepared earlier and distribute them to each of the Gu family. People, this is also known that there will be this trip, and Jian Niang prepared it early with the help of Mrs. Jiang, and Jian Leyang provided who is in the Gu residence.

In the afternoon, Jian Dong took his family to say goodbye to the people of the Gu family and turned back. The people of the Gu family were still gathering together to talk about Jian's family.

Both Gu Ruan and Gu Qiu received a set of jewelry from Jian Niang, and the eldest wife, Ruan, was also from a low family background, so she was very fond of the jewelry that Jian Niang gave: "I thought my cousin fell into that kind of family, and these years have been going well." It will be very embarrassing, but my cousin and daughter-in-law are so generous, maybe it's because I want to go wrong."

"Mother, look at these glazed jewelry, it's so beautiful, these glazed jewelry are popular in the capital now, the workmanship style is not worse than the ones seen in Cangcui Pavilion." Gu Yinzhen said happily.

Seeing what the twins were talking about when they met together, Qiu frowned slightly, but she didn't say anything in front of other people.

Gu Min took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "The current situation of my cousin's family is not due to my cousin. My cousin's life was really hard at first."

"Then what's going on now?" Ruan asked in amazement, the jewelry she gave alone cost more than a thousand taels of silver. I heard that there is a house with three entrants in the capital, and this family has a lot of money.

Old Master Gu sat there squinting his eyes happily, so Gu Min had to explain by himself: "Brother Yang actually brought all of this, and Brother Yang did some business. These jewelry really came from Cangcui Pavilion."

Jian Leyang's identity is very important. He himself revealed that the mysterious leader of Le Gang behind the Canghe Gang is Jian Leyang himself. There are many, but from the three things on the surface, Cangcui Pavilion, North-South Dagger Freight, and Glass Trading, we can know how strong the financial resources of the Canghe Gang are. Gu Min has to admire this brother.

However, there is no need to tell other people the details behind this in detail. Now only the old man and him know, and even the second brother is seeing Jane's family for the first time.

The eldest lady took a breath: "This means that Brother Yang has a part in Cangcui Pavilion? I heard that although Cangcui Pavilion is run by Mr. Xie, the real owner behind it is the Canghe Gang, Brother Yang and Canghe Gang The relationship is shallow."

Gu Yinlin, Gu Yinzhen and Gu Yinquan's eyes lit up when they heard it. They already knew the reputation of Cangcui Pavilion, and even went to it specially. They didn't expect Jian Leyang to have a relationship with Cangcui Pavilion. No wonder they were able to take out so many glazed jewelry , is the jewelry given to the eldest wife and the second wife, and the gemstones on it are also rare treasures.

Gu Min explained: "It should be. My cousin said that Brother Yang came forward and opened a few shops with them, specializing in selling goods from the north and the south. Without this relationship, you can't get these goods."

The eldest lady exclaimed: "This child is really good. He has supported the whole family at such a young age, but is there a marriage? It's a pity that the younger generation of our family, in my opinion, will not be able to descend to Brother Yang."

The eldest lady looked at her son, Gu Yinlin's conditions are certainly not bad, and she can marry a famous lady in the capital, but compared to Jian Leyang, she is really not optimistic that her son can live with such a brother, otherwise she will marry him. Isn't it a beautiful thing?The eldest lady looked at her son with regret in her eyes.

The corner of Gu Yinlin's mouth twitched, he really wanted to be tough, but he had to say that his mother had a good eye for people, and he was a little short of breath in front of Jian Leyang.

Old Master Gu and Gu Min dare not think about such a good thing, but now that Jian Dong recognizes the Gu family, Jian Leyang is also equivalent to his own family, so it is not so important whether there is a junior who can marry Jian Leyang. Looking at the eldest son, the two of them thought of their ancestor Gu Yunqing. Gu Yunqing was too strong, surpassing many men in the world. In the last life, he remained unmarried and guarded the Gu family. She was afraid of Gu Yunqing, and didn't want to be overwhelmed by a brother's sharpness.

Nowadays, the atmosphere in Daxing is becoming more and more conservative. Gu Yunqing was like that at that time, and now it will only get worse, so Jian Leyang's marriage is too difficult. If the marriage partner is not satisfactory, according to the old man, Jian Leyang may not be willing to marry, let alone no one Can do his master.

"Old Master," the butler hurried over and reported the outside news, "I heard about Nanping Bo's house. The Jiang family made a big disturbance in the uncle's house. Mrs. Uncle vomited blood and fell into a coma. , was stopped by the eldest son who rushed back to the mansion, but the son's plea failed, and he took the Chen family away from the uncle's mansion, and now the Jiang family members are clamoring for Uncle Nanping to set up another son, and bring the real eldest son back to the mansion."

"Hmph, if you want to chop up the smog, you can't even chop up a woman?" Old Mrs. Gu sneered with disdain, "And that one who doesn't live up to expectations, just vomits blood and passes out? Could it be possible to let others clean up the mess for her? I did it myself Take the blame yourself."

As soon as the Gu family heard it, they understood that the old man forbids them to meddle in the Nanping uncle's affairs.

"Father, do I need to tell my cousin? I'm afraid those members of the Jiang family will make trouble with my cousin." Gu Jin said worriedly, Mrs. Gu waved his hand and said, "No, your cousin must already know the situation in that mansion. .”

Gu Jin was surprised, Jian's family was so well-informed when they first entered the capital?Gu Min smiled helplessly, the power held by Brother Yang is stronger than that of the Gu family.

"But keep an eye on that mansion. There are some things that your cousin shouldn't say too much about. His seniority is there. When it's time for my Gu family and my old man to come forward, he should do so, lest the Jiang family think that our Gu family is easy to bully." Yes." Old Master Gu ordered the butler to go down and explain.

The Gu family dispersed, and Gu Min went to the study with the old man. The old man said worriedly: "Don't tell your second brother about those things. I think the second wife is not very satisfied. Fortunately, the two children did not teach like them. Great aunt."

Gu Min nodded, and he could see that his siblings were not very satisfied with Brother Yang. The younger siblings came from a scholarly family, so they couldn't accept a strong brother like Jian Leyang, let alone show his face to be the master of the house.As far as Gu Min knew, the siblings were happy to marry Brother Quan into a wealthy family, but would it be a good thing to marry him?She thought Brother Quan was born like his ancestors, which was the capital he could rely on?As everyone knows, it can become a disaster in an instant.

The father also saw through the intentions of the younger siblings at a glance, so he said that the marriage of the twins had to be done by the father.

Fortunately, the second brother's thinking is different from that of the younger brother and sister-in-law. The second brother will look after his wife.It's better not to say anything, lest the second brother accidentally slip up.

As expected by the two, after returning to the room, the second wife asked the children to go down and complained in front of Gu Jin: "What is a brother doing so ostentatiously? Do you think he is different from a man? Father also asked Quan to be with that man." If you come closer, don’t you want to bring Brother Quan to ruin? After finally returning to the capital, I thought I could tell them a good marriage, but I didn’t expect that now I can’t be the master.”

Gu Jin frowned and said, "I think Brother Yang is pretty good. Without him to support Jian's family, my cousin's family would not know what kind of life they would have lived, and they might not be able to recognize our family. I will always be fooled by the concubines of the Nanping uncle's mansion for the rest of my life."

Although he didn't know the details, he could tell that Jian Leyang was not simple. His father and elder brother obviously admired Jian Leyang very much, and they didn't completely treat him as a junior.

"Father is also doing it for the good of Sister Zhen and Brother Quan. I know what you think, but I don't agree with it." He objected at the beginning, but the wife still insisted. Fortunately, my father saw it and objected aloud.

Qiu Shi was very angry: "Do you want our children to live in that remote place like you for seven or eight years? It's been so many years, why is the Gu family still adhering to the old rules? You don't care for us Think about it for your children and grandchildren, do you want them to be stuck forever?"

"You just want to stand out, maybe you want our Gu family to destroy our family? If you don't have the skills to fight, then live your life honestly." Gu Jin had fought with Qiu Shi more than once in private, and he was unhappy. After leaving the room, I plunged into the study. I used to be humble to Qiu Shi, and I felt guilty, but I didn't expect her to have such an idea. If I knew it, I might as well let it out and not return to Beijing.
