There were some nosy people in Yuezhou Prefecture who shook their heads and sneered:
"That's not the case, is it? If there really is some secret, how could he be so heartless? Wouldn't that be like pulling out a radish without mercy?"
"It doesn't look like something Gu Beihan did, does it? But it's hard to say." The person next to him touched his chin and smiled slyly: "Involved in the cousin's sect? As expected, they are from the same sect."
Gu Beihan was so embarrassed that his face was filled with gloom. He was so angry that he wanted to kick Su Qi a few times. When he met Gu Beiheng's murderous and contemptuous eyes, he yelled at the people who were laughing at him:
"You've been slandering me with your eloquence. Be careful of retribution."
"Retribution? Some people are even more afraid. Be careful when sleeping at night. Don't let it come to take your life in the middle of the night." Su Qi's face was cold and his words were merciless.
Gu Beiheng stared at Su Qi lovingly. Seeing her talking about Gu Beihan and Gu Beizheng so much that they looked constipated, he felt extremely relieved.
Anyway, those two bastards wouldn't dare to do anything to Su Qi. If they show any sign, I'll make sure they know how beautiful the color of blood is.
Gu Beihan and Gu Beizheng couldn't stay there for a moment.
Su Qi twisted the silver needle in the philtrum again, and her hand kept pinching Hong Liuer's palm.
Sudden.
Hong Liuer's eyelashes trembled a few times.
Then he opened his eyes and looked at Su Qi blankly. He didn't move at all, with no expression on his face.
Everyone watching held their breath and dared not say a word.
"Red Willow."
Su Qi called out.
Hong Liu'er's unfocused eyes returned to normal, and she turned her eyes blankly to look at the people around her. There was sympathy and pity in those people's eyes.
No, I seem to have forgotten something?
What did you forget?
Hong Liu'er was stunned for a moment, and looked at Su Qi with a puzzled look. "I..." Two lines of tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and her heart unconsciously tightened.
It was like a pair of big hands took out her heart, and the bloody and steaming heart disappeared from her sight.
Has she lost the most important thing?
Why does my heart hurt so much?
Hong Liuer looked at Su Qi helplessly, wanting to know the answer from her. "Tell me, what's wrong with me? Why does my heart hurt so much?"
She looked like a pitiful and weak little white rabbit, with a pair of innocent and helpless eyes slowly turning to the crowd. She couldn't stop the tears from the corners of her eyes, letting them blur her vision and slide into her ears and hair.
Salty tears also slid into his mouth.
The crowd watching could no longer bear it, as some of them were other people's mothers and other people's children.
Gu Beiting lay on Gu Beijing and cried uncontrollably, but didn't say a word.
"Hong Liu'er, do you remember where you are?" Su Qi suppressed the tears in her eyes and helped her sit up. "Hong Liu'er, do you remember?"
Hong Liuer slowly turned her eyes and saw Gu Jingchen standing not far away in the crowd.
"Mom, I'm here."
"Mom, come here."
"Ang'er." Hong Liu'er smiled and stretched out her hands. "My dear An'er, come here to your mother." She stood up and walked towards Gu Jingchen.
It was as if I saw Ang'er standing there giggling.
"Mom, don't cry. I will protect you when I grow up."
When Gu Beihan's concubine Hong saw Hong Liu'er's hysterical look, she felt something was wrong and hurried over to hug Gu Jingchen in her arms.
He stared at Hong Liu'er with hostility, "Don't come over here. Look carefully, this is my Jingchen."
"Your Jingchen? What about my Ange'er?" Hong Liu'er was puzzled.
"Your Ang'er fell into the river and was swept away. The boatman only rescued you. He didn't find Ang'er."
No.
No.
No...
Hong Liuer held her mouth and let the tears flow.
After holding it in for a full half a moment, she glared coldly at Aunt Hong. "You're talking nonsense. My An Ge'er is playing hide-and-seek with me." She bit her lip and said this, then turned to look at Su Qi.
She wanted to get the answer from Su Qi's face. She knew that no one else could be trusted, but Su Qi was the only one she could trust.
Su Qi couldn't bear it any longer. She couldn't look Hong Liu'er in the eye, so she had to turn her head away.
Hongliuer understood.
Slowly walked to the side of the boat and sat down.
Everyone was afraid that she would do something stupid, so they followed her nervously.
Strangely enough, when Hong Liuer remembered it, she stopped crying.
She said coldly to the person standing next to her:
"Don't think I'm going to jump down. My Anger wants me to live. I will live for a long time, and I will live with Anger's life."
"You guys go away. Leave me alone for a while. I want to say goodbye to An Ge'er."
Su Qi saw tenacity in Hong Liuer's eyes, and she waved her hand to let the onlookers leave.
"Everyone, let's go. Spread out."
The crowd of onlookers dispersed.
Su Qi stood for a moment, then turned around and prepared to leave.
Hong Liuer called Su Qi softly.
"Qiqi, can you stay with me for a while? I want to talk to you."
"good."
Su Qi sat down.
"Want to drink?"
Hong Liuer nodded and said, "Drink."
Su Qi got up and went into the room, but actually took out two wine bags of pear blossom white from the space.
When I walked out, I happened to run into Gu Beizheng. Gu Beizheng had a sinister look on his face and a cruel look in his eyes. "Su Qi, are you going to help that bitch go against us?"
Su Qi snorted coldly:
"You think too much. You don't deserve it."
"Don't go too far." Gu Beizheng stretched out his hand to grab Su Qi.
Gu Beiheng leaped over, raised his right foot, and unleashed a flurry of kicks, knocking Gu Beizheng down and crashing into a nearby pillar. A cold expression etched on his face, "Gu Beizheng, if you do that again, you'll be dead for sure."
"Gu Beiheng, you dare."
"What am I afraid of? I don't even dare to touch my own wife, so who among you dares to try?" Gu Beiheng exuded a murderous aura, like a god of war drenched in blood from the battlefield.
He glared with a frown, and his whole body exuded an air of dominance that made people shudder.
The few officers standing there didn't say anything. They also looked down on the moral character of Gu Beizheng and Gu Beihan.
Hong Liu'er was born into a thin family in Jiangnan, but it is impossible for her to seduce Gu Beihan.
What is the truth?
Everyone knows it.
Gu Beizheng simply didn't have the ability to settle the score with Gu Beihan, so he just vented his anger on a woman.
This eventually led to Ang'er's tragic death.
The elders of the Gu family all kept silent.
No one dared to step forward and say a word.
Gu Wujiang knew his son was wrong, but Gu Beizheng was his only legitimate son. He looked at Gu Wushen anxiously, hoping that his father would say something to Gu Beiheng.
Gu Wushen knew that Gu Beiheng would not give him any face. He was the father, but he was not conceited enough.
He shrugged and walked back.
He didn't want to completely fall out with Gu Beiheng, as it would do absolutely no good.
Su Qi walked over and sat down next to Hong Liuer.
Hong Liuer looked at the surging river, took the wine bag and drank several mouthfuls.
"Qiqi, do you think Anger will go to my hometown by following this river? I told Anger that the place with white magnolias in full bloom is my mother's hometown."
Hong Liuer paused, looked into the distance and lost herself in memories.
"I come from a family of scholars. I read the Thousand Character Classic when I was four or five years old. I know quite a few characters.
When I was seven or eight years old, I was visiting a temple fair with my family and was separated by the crowd, and I met a beggar.
They sent me to that kind of place, where I lived an inhuman life. I finally saved up some money and wanted to redeem myself and find a job as a farmer.
I happened to meet Gu Beizheng, and someone who flattered him redeemed me and gave me to him. That's how I ended up in the Gu Mansion in the capital, becoming a concubine of the lowest rank.
I thought I could live my whole life in that square backyard without fighting or competing.
Who knew that bastard got drunk and raped me in the back garden?" Hong Liu'er said calmly, as if she was telling someone else's story.
Su Qi felt very heavy after hearing this story.
Coming from the modern era, she couldn't understand why women in this era were bought, sold, and given away like objects.
