Chapter 16 - wind direction
Gu Qingzhou sat in the car with his hands folded, his breath was weak, and he didn’t make any sound.
Gu Guizhang was breathing heavily and inhaling, extremely angry.
His man’s authority, his father’s prestige, were challenged.
His wife and daughter tricked him like a fool.
It was his wife’s intention to bring Gu Qingzhou back to retire from the relatives. At that time, their husband and wife also agreed that they would have a better life and would never embarrass Gu Qingzhou.
Unexpectedly, on the first day of Gu Qingzhou’s return home, the third and fourth children used scissors to stab her, but they stabbed themselves; then, the gentle and quiet eldest daughter Gu Xiang actually framed Gu Qingzhou with this little trick.
Can’t tolerate a country girl like that?
Gu Guizhang felt deeply that his own education failed!
They not only bullied Gu Qingzhou, but also treated Gu Guizhang as a fool, which is simply hateful.
“I have been in pain since I was a child, and now it seems that her future is limited to this, and it wasted my hard work to cultivate her!” Gu Guizhang gritted his teeth.
Gu Guizhang wished that the mother and daughter could not be chased away from the Gu family immediately.
He never wanted to see Qin Zhengzheng and Gu Zhang again.
When approaching the door of the house, Gu Guizhang calmed down in anger and asked Gu Qingzhou, “How was the banquet tonight?”
This is asking how the process of withdrawing from the relatives is going to be, and the people in the Overseer’s Mansion can make it difficult for her.
Of course, even if it was embarrassing, Gu Guizhang didn’t care. Gu Qingzhou was a child who grew up in the countryside, as if Shishi was uncivilized and had no value to Gu Guizhang.
Gu Qingzhou’s voice was soft, like a willow wind blowing past her face, warm and warm: “Fortunately, we have been sitting all the time, and we don’t know anyone. Later, Mrs. Overseer sent someone to ask me to dance…”
Gu Guizhang kept silent and waited for Gu Qingzhou to continue speaking.
Seeing that Gu Qingzhou paused, he hummed, and then Gu Qingzhou continued.
“The Overseer likes me to dance very much, and let me call him Abba. Madam said that everyone in the new school is called Uncle, and from time to time they are called Abba…”
“What!” Gu Guizhang was taken aback.
Gu Qingzhou repeated: “The Overseer’s wife said that the new people…”
“I didn’t ask the Overseer’s wife, I asked the Overseer, what did he say?” Gu Guizhang’s voice was hurried, with a hint of disbelief.
Could it be that the pie in the sky, the daughter he has never invested in, wants to hook him back with a golden tortoise-in-law?
This is so unexpected!
Gu Guizhang suddenly remembered that Gu Huang was so crying and scolded Gu Qingzhou because Gu Qingzhou got the status that Gu Xiang wanted most?
The gloom in Gu Guizhang’s heart was swept away.
The Gu family is beyond the reach of such a wealthy family as the Si family. If it wasn’t for the fate in the early years, it would not be Gu Qingzhou’s turn to be the young marshal as a concubine.
“The Overseer said, let me call him Abba.” Gu Qingzhou repeated. There was a mocking arc at the corner of her lips, and she deliberately said these words softly and softly.
In the dark carriage, Gu Guizhang couldn’t help but smile, and there was an uncontrollable smile in his voice: “The Overseer likes you very much.”
What a surprise!
Gu Guizhang was not sure about Panjie Si’s family. Although Gu Zhang was beautiful and talented, he was not the most outstanding in Yuecheng. As for the lords of the governor’s mansion, how could Gu Hao climb up at will?
At the same time, Gu Guizhang did not dare to leave his relatives, for fear that the commander-in-chief would give him small shoes to wear, which would make his dream impossible and he would lose his job instead.
Now, Gu Qingzhou is actually favored by the commander-in-chief and openly admitting her identity, Gu Guizhang breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, he took care of someone’s good luck!
“Qingzhou, what do you want in the future, tell your father directly, don’t wrong yourself.” Gu Guizhang was overjoyed, and he had already forgotten about Gu Zhang and Qin Zhengzheng’s mother and daughter.
Back at Gu Mansion, Gu Guizhang went straight to his third aunt Susu’s room with a smile on his face.
Su Su cooked a hot supper, Gu Guizhang ate a bowl of seafood porridge, and Su Su turned the clouds over the rain, tossing for half an hour, fell into a deep sleep from exhaustion, and had long forgotten his wife and daughter who were thrown at the German Church Hospital.
Gu Qingzhou was lying on the bed, long blue silk covered her flax-colored pillow seat, falling on the crook of her forearm, cool, slippery and soft.
She looked at the high roof, nothing on the white walls, but the corners of her lips twitched slightly.
“Mother Li, everything went well for me in Yuecheng.” Gu Qingzhou murmured to himself, “I was admitted by the Overseer, and I have stood firm since then. Everything is according to our plan, and I am fine-except I met a pervert yesterday…”
Li’s mother’s name is Li Juan. She is her wet nurse. She raised her since she was a child. She is the closest person to Gu Qingzhou. She is still in the country.
Li’s mother has been in poor health in recent years. The diet in the countryside is poor and there are no tonics. Gu Qingzhou is very distressed for her.
That is Gu Qingzhou’s only relative, and Gu Qingzhou must never leave her.
“Ma Li, when my grandfather’s property is returned to me, I will pick you up to the city, you must be healthy and wait for me.” Gu Qingzhou murmured.
With murmuring, she fell asleep, and slept very sweetly this night.
Qin Zhengzheng and Gu Xiang, who were far away in the German Mission Hospital, couldn’t sleep, and they were very embarrassed.
In Yuecheng in the twelfth lunar month, the night wind whistled and the bone-piercing cold wind raged. Outside the church hospital, there was no rickshaw late at night.
At night, the rickshaws went to the dance halls everywhere to wait, waiting for the guests who finished at midnight. The church hospital was far away from the dance hall, and there were no ghosts.
Luckily there are emergency rooms open.
Under the eyes of the nurse, Qin Zhengzheng and Gu Xiang stood in the cold and watery emergency waiting room, cold and tired.
“Mum, I can’t spare Gu Qingzhou.” Gu Zhang cried, “Why are we so unlucky?”
Qin Zhengzheng did not speak.
At this stage, Qin Zhengzheng was also a little surprised. The fourth said that Gu Qingzhou stabbed the third, and Gu Zhang said that Gu Qingzhou broke her hand.
In the end, it was exposed as a lie.
Could there be such a coincidental lie?
Or, it’s all true, but they looked down on Gu Qingzhou and ignored it.
“Beware of her.” Qin Zhengzheng said coldly, “When she came back, she hurt both you and your sister. We were all deceived by her!”
“You believe me?” Gu Zhang was grateful and wept.
“Of course, you are Mom’s baby. Who don’t you believe?” Qin Zheng said.
Gu Zhang hugged Qin Zhengzheng tightly.
“Mum, drive her out.” Gu Zhang cried, “She is so hateful, if it weren’t for her, the governor’s office would announce that the second young master’s fiancee would be me.”
Qin Zhengzheng felt the same pain as needles, and the duck in his hand flew away.
“It’s too difficult to drive her out. Your father believes her now, and the military governor’s office also recognizes her identity.” Qin Zhengzheng’s eyes were gloomy, “it’s the most important thing to make your father stop trusting her.”
“Mum, do you have an idea?”
“Is your mother a vegetarian?” Qin Zhengzheng snorted coldly, “Little goblin, her mother was defeated by me back then, not to mention her stinky mother?”
The mother and daughter hugged and shivered.
The next morning, there was a rickshaw to solicit customers, so Gu Zhang and Qin Zhengzheng took the car home.
The family knew that the wife and the eldest were left in the German Church Hospital by the master in the middle of the night, and only brought back Miss Qingzhou; and the commander-in-chief publicly admitted that Miss Qingzhou was the fiancee of Young Marshal Si.
The wind in the house has changed.
“Miss Qingzhou, how is the young marshal?” The third aunt asked too curiously, “Is it elegant?”
Gu Qingzhou smiled: “I haven’t seen him yet, and the young marshal didn’t show up last night.”
