Chapter 176 Family Reunion
"Since Mingyue wants to be with that person and you don't agree, we can only ask the village chief to help bring them together. As long as the village chief is willing to help, it will be easy. If it doesn't work, then Mingyue can only give up. After all, there is a saying that a forced melon is not sweet, and a marriage without the blessing of parents is not happy."
Gu Leyou said so many truths, but I don’t know if they can understand them.
"What you said makes sense. Let's go and ask the village chief to come over immediately and ask him to mediate for us."
As a result, just as they were about to go out, they were stopped by Old Lady Liu.
"Stop right there. There's a saying that goes, family disgrace should not be left unsolved. Besides, the village chief has a lot of problems to deal with. How can you have the nerve to bother him again? Can't we solve this problem ourselves?"
So they didn't go to the village chief in the end.
Just when everyone didn't know how to show goodwill, another incident happened in the village and people from the government came.
A leading constable is going door to door asking where Gu Mingyue's home is?
Soon we heard that some villagers who loved to join in the fun had also come.
At the door of Gu Mingyue's house.
The leader knocked on the door unhappily.
Yang was startled when she came out and opened the door.
"Sir, who are you looking for?"
"Excuse me, is this Gu Mingyue's family? Do you know Wang Dashu?"
Gu Mingyue walked out and nodded. This Wang Dashu was really the man she was going to marry.
"Excuse me, sir, what do you want from us?"
The man from the yamen explained, "Wang Dashu committed a murder and ran away. We found out from many sources that he wanted to be with you. Do you know what he did? We want to find you at the yamen. The lord has something to ask you."
Gu Mingyue was so scared that she waved her hands quickly.
"I'm not going. It's none of my business. Besides, there's no epidemic in our two families. He's not my husband, and I'm not his wife, so it's none of my business."
The people in the yamen don’t care about all that. As long as Wang Dashu has the slightest relationship with Gu Mingyue, she should be taken away for questioning.
Just like that, the officers and soldiers ignored Gu Lao Da's family's pleadings and took Gu Mingyue away.
Boss Gu and his family quickly followed.
They were afraid that their daughter would suffer physical pain again, so Gu Leyou followed her.
Fortunately, he was quite famous, and when he went home, only he and his wife went home, leaving their daughter at her parents' home and asking them to help take care of her. Otherwise, if something happened to Gu Mingyue, if he went with her, his daughter would suffer as well.
After arriving at the yamen.
Gu Mingyue knelt in the lobby.
"Gu Mingyue, may I ask you, do you know that Wang Dashu killed someone and escaped a few days ago?"
Gu Mingyue shook her head. "I'm not sure. He and I haven't been engaged yet. Besides, I just like him as a person, and I didn't know he would be this kind of person. I'm not his wife, so what's the point of arresting me? Sometimes he doesn't even tell me some things."
The county magistrate told the story of Wang Dashu's murder.
"I don't care if you've seen him or not. What I want to tell you now is that he killed someone a few days ago, and now I don't know where he is. If he comes looking for you, you must remember to tell me. We want to arrest him. Otherwise, if the higher-ups investigate, we won't be able to bear the consequences."
Gu Mingyue was a little curious. Why did Wang Dashu kill people?
The county magistrate said, "According to my investigation, it seems that Wang Dashu had a conflict with his buyer. After the buyer scolded him, Wang Dashu held a grudge and lured him to a secret place two days later, and killed him with his own knife. He was found soon after. I heard that the murdered man also had a wife and children. What a sin."
Gu Mingyue was a little bit unconvinced.
How did it become like this? He saw that Wang Dashu was a good person and was very considerate to him. He would buy things for her every day and give her money to spend.
This time, Yang almost caused a scene in court.
"I told you he's not a good guy, but you don't believe me. He killed someone and is on the run. If he's caught, he'll be sentenced to jail. You can't follow someone who's been to jail. Give up on him as soon as possible."
"Mother, I know what's going on, so I won't follow him. As for what he wants, it's the government's business. Let's go back."
Gu Mingyue was about to leave when she was stopped by the police. He said, "Sir, she must not leave. If she leaves, and the two of them meet, this woman will tip off Uncle Wang, and if Uncle Wang runs away again, it will be all over."
"Then what do you think we should do? It's impossible, right? What will it look like if this woman stays in the yamen?" asked the county magistrate.
"Sir, what my eldest brother said makes sense. If this woman leaves, what will we do if we can't catch the criminal? How can we explain to the people above us? If they come down to investigate, we will be in big trouble. Let's keep this woman here."
Yang was frightened when she saw this and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy.
"Sir, this is none of our business. He was the one who killed someone, not my daughter. Why did you detain my daughter? Can you let her go? We are all good people. We are innocent. We cannot let others suffer for us."
The county magistrate thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case, so he let them go back.
Gu Mingyue and his family left the yamen in a hurry as if they had been pardoned.
On the way home, the whole family was silent and in a heavy mood.
Gu Mingyue was even more distraught. Her beautiful vision was shattered in an instant. She could never have imagined that Wang Dashu, who had been so gentle and considerate to her, had become a murderer.
When she returned home, Mrs. Liu saw the expressions of the crowd and knew that something was wrong.
After Gu Leyou told her the whole story in detail, Old Lady Liu stamped her feet in anger, "I said this marriage was unreliable, and now it almost got our Mingyue involved!"
Gu Mingyue locked herself in the room and refused to eat or drink.
The past times she spent with Wang Dashu kept emerging in her mind, and those sweet moments now pricked her heart like needles.
Yang felt sorry for her daughter and called softly from outside the door, "Mingyue, open the door and eat something. Don't starve yourself." But there was no response from the room.
Yang quickly called Boss Gu.
"Dad, come quickly. Something must have happened to our daughter."
As a result, Gu Dacheng hurried back from the yard, kicked open the door of his daughter's room, and saw his daughter huddled in the corner, looking stupid.
That day, Yang came to Gu Leyou's house and knocked on the door anxiously.
Gu Leyou held her daughter who had just learned to walk hand in hand to open the door for her.
"Le You, please come to my house quickly. My sister Mingyue is not acting normal. Please come and let me take a look. I heard from your parents that you seem to know medical skills. Please go and take a look at your sister Mingyue."
"Then let's go quickly. Auntie, hold the baby for me. I'll close the door."
"OK."
Yang picked up the children, Gu Leyou and Lu Yan’s. My daughter’s name is Le Ning, and her nickname is Ning Ning, but they all like to call her Xiao Le.
When Gu Leyou arrived at his uncle's house, everyone was panicked.
When Gu Mingyue saw her sister, she began to giggle and mutter to herself.
Gu Leyou took her pulse and examined her carefully, but just as he was about to say something, Gu Mingyue started making a fuss.
"Mingyue, do you still remember who I am?" Gu Leyou asked tentatively.
As a result, the other party's voice startled them all.
"You are my elder sister. Hey, elder sister, do you think the clothes I wear look good?"
It's over, this time I'm completely crazy.
Gu Leyou came to a conclusion.
Then everyone started to walk out of her room and went to the yard to discuss the matter.
"There is something terrible that I can't do anything about. Mingyue has gone crazy because of the shock. It's actually good for him now. Otherwise, when he recovers his Instagram and finds out that the person he wants to marry is an unforgivable person, it will make him even more miserable. This way, he will forget everything and won't live in fear for the rest of his life. You just need to take good care of him."
When Old Mrs. Liu heard her second granddaughter say this, she almost fainted from anger.
Old Madam Liu pretended to be calm and kept saying the same thing: "What a sin, what a sin. A good girl was ruined by that beast. She will never be able to return to normal again."
When Yang heard the news, she fainted from anger.
When everyone talked about this incident later, they all felt very regretful.
The incident in Gujia Village came to an end, and everyone lived a peaceful and stable life.
The royal palace in Beijing.
"Father, please let me go see my father, mother, and sister. I have lived with them for several years and have developed feelings for them. They treat me very well. I just need to go and see them and make sure they are living well. Then I will come back with you and shoulder the responsibilities of a prince, okay?"
The prince couldn't bear it and was about to agree but was reminded by the butler.
"The prince and his family have already agreed to send the child back. They have already made plans not to meet the child. If you bring the child back, it may cause trouble. Haven't we already thought about it? Stay for a while, and when this matter is calm, take the child and fly away. We can't stay in the capital anymore. The capital seems calm now, but it is actually very dangerous."
In fact, the prince was wondering if he was too anxious to get the child back.
After all, the child has been with his sworn brother and his wife for so many years, and relatively speaking, he doesn't seem to have much affection for his tall father. The most important thing now is how to comfort the child's young heart, otherwise he may not be able to become a man of integrity when he grows up.
So he decided to talk to the child patiently.
"Son, you are my son, the noble young prince. If you have the chance in the future, you may inherit the throne and become the ruler of all people. Don't let your emotions get the better of you. They are just your adoptive parents, and I am your biological father. You may be used to the country life with them, but have you ever thought about it? Sooner or later, you will return to my side."
"But father, you are my biological father. I have known since I was a child that you sent me away for my safety. But have you ever thought that I have been accustomed to the rural life and the life of wandering with them? If you had not thought about giving me such a life, should you not have given birth to me? Do you think this is irresponsible to me?"
The child's words almost made the prince faint.
He didn't expect that after working so hard for so long and sending the child away for his safety, in the end he was still blamed by the child for being irresponsible to him. If it wasn't for his safety, he really could have kept him.
But when the prince thought about how cruel his brother was, he was sure to kill him if he knew his child was still alive, and his only son would die at his hands.
So at the beginning, he entrusted the general to raise his child well. Now that the situation is stable, he does not want his son to hate him in the future, so he kept the child, hoping to raise him well with his own ability. However, in the child's heart, he is an irresponsible father.
"You're making me so angry, kid. Have you ever thought about it? If it wasn't for you, I would fight you to the death. I just understand you. If I die, you will be without a father and without my protection. What will you do? When you grow up, think about it carefully. You actually spoke to the father who gave you life like this for those two outsiders. Have you ever thought that I would be very sad?"
As a result, the child's words left the prince speechless.
"I would rather you hadn't given birth to me, and I would also rather you hadn't sent me away, so that I could have been with you forever, and I wouldn't have to accept what happened later, and then I wouldn't have no feelings for you. Maybe we have a good relationship as father and son now, but things don't always go as we wish. You sent me away for my safety, so you have to bear the fact that I have no feelings for you."
The prince had no choice but to personally send the child back to Gu Leyou and his wife.
When the child set out on the journey home, he was very happy, but there was nothing he could do. When he returned, he could only announce that the child had died of a strange disease.
This is the only way, otherwise I won't be able to explain to outsiders. After all, this child is accustomed to country life, and this kind of life is the best for him.
Half a month later, Gu Leyou was at home with her child when she suddenly heard a knock on the door. She opened the door and saw her son, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, and the prince.
"Why are you here, kid? Are you blaming your mother for leaving without saying goodbye to you? You should know that this is your biological father. We just raised you for a few years."
The prince was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave, so he did not enter the house. He just left a sentence: "Take good care of him." and left.
In this way, the child came back, and their family of four was truly reunited.
