Gu Bei and Dong Wan
In a blink of an eye, a few months passed, and Gu Zhiwen and Dong Jiaojiao were about to get engaged.
No one told Li Yingdi about this. Li Yingdi was still dreaming in her hometown that Zhiwen would get married in the future and take her out to enjoy a good life.
Dong Wan on the other side had already started to make arrangements in a hurry. Because the person Gu Zhiwen was going to marry was her niece, Dong Wan was particularly concerned and prepared everything very carefully.
Gu Bei was a selfish person who didn't like to worry about anything. Seeing someone willing to take on this mess, he was even more happy to relax.
Gu Bei did not tell Li Yingdi that Zhiwen was going to get engaged, and Dong Wan was even less bothered about it. Li Yingdi originally disagreed with the marriage between Zhiwen and her niece, and it was better to have less trouble than more, so it could be said that Li Yingdi knew nothing about the marriage.
Until this day, Li Yingdi saw that the neighbors in her hometown were all packed up and ready to go out with some things in their hands. She called out to them with some doubt:
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
The sister-in-law was stopped, her face still a little surprised, and she asked in confusion:
"you do not know?"
After saying this, seeing the genuine expression on Li Yingdi's face, the eldest sister-in-law also looked like she had said something wrong and obviously didn't want to continue, so she evaded the question:
"Hey, didn't your Gu Bei tell you about this incident?"
"Tell me, what to say? There's nothing serious going on at home, is there anything you want to tell me?"
Li Yingdi said puzzledly.
Seeing Li Yingdi like this, some young wives who were not on good terms with her said sarcastically:
"You don't even know this, and you're Zhiwen's biological mother. In my opinion, even if your son becomes successful in the future, you won't be able to enjoy the blessing."
It is said that your enemies can only touch your sore spots. Li Yingdi was so angry that she jumped up and down and cursed:
"What nonsense are you talking about? Your son is the one who is not filial to you. If you ask me, there is no one in the whole mountain who is more filial than our Zhiwen."
The man was not to be outdone and shouted:
"If he was truly filial, why wouldn't he have informed you, his biological mother, about his engagement? But if I were Zhiwen, I wouldn't hesitate to acknowledge you as my biological mother.
The new bride they chose today is Dong Wan's niece. Now they are a family."
Li Yingdi was struck by lightning when she heard this, and she was stunned on the spot. It was the first time she spoke to the elder sister-in-law, who could not bear it any longer and said:
"You still have time to pack up and go there. It's not like your son is getting married without his mother being there."
After hearing this, Li Yingdi came to her senses and hurriedly packed herself up.
After packing up, Li Yingdi hurried to the county town again. This time she was particularly careful and avoided the main road she usually took, taking a detour through a remote path to get home.
Li Yingdi's detour was not in vain. Because Dong Wan had told Dong Dasao to be wary of Li Yingdi, Dong Dasao was afraid that Li Yingdi would do something bad, so she asked her brothers from her natal family to block the road from the mountain to the county town, for fear that Li Yingdi would cause trouble.
Because Li Yingdi took the small path, Dong Dasao's brothers failed to successfully block Li Yingdi, and Li Yingdi actually ran in.
"Gu Bei, you are such a heartless bastard! You didn't even inform me, your mother, about your son's engagement, and you even married him off to such a shrewd daughter-in-law. Oh my god, my life is so miserable!"
Li Yingdi started crying as soon as she entered the door.
Seeing that the guests were whispering, Gu Bei's face turned pale. He originally thought that since Zhiwen was marrying Dong Wan's niece and Li Yingdi had always been against Dong Wan, it was better to keep things quiet, so he simply didn't tell Li Yingdi.
I didn’t expect that Li Yingdi could actually come over, and now the guests are all watching the fun.
The one who reacted the fastest was Gu Zhiwen. He looked at Li Yingdi running over, then turned to look at Gu Bei and asked in surprise:
"Dad, what's going on? Didn't you say my mother was seriously ill and that you didn't call her mother when we got engaged? What's going on now?"
Gu Bei's face, which was already livid, became even stiffer after hearing Zhiwen's words. He said impatiently:
"What do you know, little kid? How could you do something wrong for your own good?"
Li Yingdi next to him didn't care about that. She was furious when she found out that it was Gu Bei who deliberately hid the secret from his son. Anyway, she had already lost heart when Gu Bei married Dong Wan.
Li Yingdi looked at Zhiwen's red eyes and felt that she had to do one last thing for her son.
Thinking of this, Li Yingdi rushed into the kitchen, found a rusty iron knife, and rushed out waving it.
It was obvious that Li Yingdi was going crazy. She wielded the knife with great vigor and power, and no one dared to confront her for a moment.
Li Yingdi didn't care about anyone else and went straight to Gu Bei.
Seeing this, Dong Wan quickly considered the pros and cons of Gu Bei being alive. She felt that Gu Zhiwen was already grown up and was engaged to her niece, so there would be no problem without Gu Bei.
With this in mind, Dong Wan quietly moved aside. At the same time, she winked at Mrs. Dong and the others, signaling them to move aside as well.
Not to mention the guests next to them, who, seeing that something was wrong, ran out early and stuck their heads out to watch the excitement.
Thanks to the tacit cooperation of others, Li Yingdi came to Gu Bei without any hindrance. Gu Bei was very panicked and said:
"You crazy woman, put the knife down now. You... don't come over here. Ah!!!!!!"
With a scream, Gu Bei's lower body was stained red. Dong Wan and Dong Dasao, who were standing next to him, also widened their eyes in surprise and looked at Li Yingdi in disbelief.
Li Yingdi! She actually cut off Gu Bei's genitals!
Li Yingdi looked crazy, but she had her own plans. If she chopped her neck, the Gu family would not let her go. But if she only chopped off her offspring, the Gu family would not do anything to her for the sake of their promising son Zhiwen.
Besides, Gu Bei would no longer be able to have children, and Zhiwen would not be neglected. Dong Wan would also be unable to have children of her own, so she would definitely treat Zhiwen well.
Dong Wan saw Li Yingdi's actions from the side, and also saw the desperate but reluctant look in Li Yingdi's eyes as she looked at Zhiwen after she swung the knife.
Dong Wan understood what Li Yingdi was thinking. She had never thought that someone like Li Yingdi could have such a motherly heart. Unfortunately, even without Li Yingdi's knife, she would not be able to be a mother.
Dong Wan was only slightly touched. She knew that the Gu family would no longer allow Li Yingdi and Zhiwen to contact each other. Zhiwen would just be their son.
As a reward for stealing your son, she will not let Gu Bei have an easy time, Dong Wan thought coldly in her heart.
But Dong Wan put on an anxious expression, threw herself on Gu Bei, and inadvertently pressed Gu Bei's wound, crying:
"Husband, how are you? Are you okay? Don't scare me, okay?"
In the chaos, it was Gu Chongshan who took charge and sent Gu Bei to the clinic. The doctor said solemnly:
"Although you delivered it fairly early, the knife that injured him is rusty. There's no other way except to cut it off."
Gu Chongshan's face turned pale, but he still gritted his teeth and agreed with the doctor's opinion.
When Gu Bei regained consciousness, he gnashed his teeth in hatred towards Li Yingdi and said viciously:
"Where's Li Yingdi? Send her to see the officials quickly. Our Gu family can't tolerate a daughter-in-law like her anymore."
Gu Chongshan turned his head away without saying a word. Faced with a son who could no longer carry on the family line, no matter how much he liked him, he would not offend a promising grandson for this son.
It turned out that when Gu Bei was unconscious, Gu Zhiwen had already found Gu Chongshan and said that although Li Yingdi did something wrong, she was his mother after all, and Gu Bei was not in danger of life after all.
Since Gu Zhiwen said so, Gu Chongshan could only grit his teeth and accept it.
But when facing her son, she couldn't bear to tell the truth and could only turn her head away.
Dong Wan, who was standing next to him, started crying and said:
"Sir, it's not that we don't want to send Li Yingdi to the authorities. It's really that you have to consider Zhiwen's situation. Zhiwen still has to take the imperial examinations. If he has a tainted mother, what will he do?
Besides, in your current situation, my husband, you only have Zhiwen as your child, so it would be inappropriate to send Li Yingdi to see the authorities."
Gu Bei was deeply moved by these words and felt that Dong Wan really loved him deeply. Even though they could no longer have children of their own, Dong Wan still thought of him wholeheartedly.
"Wanwan, you've been wronged."
Dong Wan's mouth twitched, and she was speechless. She was really fed up with this man who was just good at talking.
Soon, Gu Bei returned home from the clinic. After arriving home, Dong Wan cooked for Gu Bei in various ways, including chicken, duck, and fish.
Dong Wan didn't know who had told her that it was not good to eat too much meat after being injured. But in the current situation, who would doubt a poor woman who wanted her husband to eat something good?
Soon, Gu Bei developed a fever. He didn't know what was burning him, but he became paralyzed and couldn't move.
But Dong Wan still took care of him every day, and everyone in the county praised her as a good wife. Even Gu Zhiwen was deeply moved and became even more filial to Dong Wan.
After Gu Zhiwen left, Dong Wan looked at Gu Bei lying on the bed, pulled back his quilt, opened the window, and said gently:
"Husband, please take a rest. Everyone in the county envies you for marrying such a virtuous wife like me."
