When Gu Yu heard the princess' words of comfort, a smile appeared on her face, "This servant knows, but now I feel that being a servant by the princess' side is the happiest life.
I don't feel inferior just because I used to be a slave. My husband's family looks down on me, and I look down on them too!
I only endured it for my son's sake, and sometimes I also feel impatient."
The old saying didn't mention it, but she was now quite impatient with her hypocritical husband. He pretended to like her every day in front of her, and she had even caught him being affectionate with his cousin.
Gu Yu is waiting for her good husband to pass the exam and become an official.
No matter how simple-minded Gu Yu is, she grew up in a large mansion and has seen all kinds of tricks. As long as she can be ruthless, all the problems in the family will be solved.
Seeing that Gu Yu seemed to know what was going on, Zhou Qiongyue also asked, "How old is your son?"
Speaking of his son, Zhou Qiongyue, Gu Lan and others felt that Gu Yu's face had changed. "Replying to Princess, he is already 7 years old and has started to learn this year."
"How many children do you have now?" Zhou Qiongyue asked with concern following the ancient saying.
Gu Yu looked around the room and saw that only the princess, Gu Lan, and Gu Mei were there. She then said confidently, "I only have one son, but don't worry, princess. His family cares about this child more than I do! This is my husband's only child."
Gulan and Gumei both opened their eyes wide, and Gulan asked with concern: "Is this what I meant?"
Gu Yu didn't mean to elaborate, and she didn't want to pollute the princess's ears with such things, so she just nodded casually.
Although Gu Yu now envies the lives of Gu Lan, Gu Mei and others, she does not regret her choice.
"Gu Yu has grown up." Gu Mei's eyes were full of heartache. She didn't know how much suffering Gu Yu had gone through to change from that simple girl to what she is now.
Gu Yu certainly saw the pain in the eyes of her former sisters. She smiled confidently and said, "My life is better now. I have the only child in the family. Who dares to make trouble with me? Wait a few years and I will be able to raise a lot of him back."
Zhou Qiongyue knew that Gu Yu's current situation was not as good as she said, and Zhou Qiongyue was willing to support Gu Yu within a certain range:
"You have been with me since you were a child. If you have any problems in the future, you can come back to me. As long as it's not your fault, I will take care of it for you."
Gu Yu knelt down and kowtowed three times to Zhou Qiongyue. "Princess, you are still as soft-hearted as before. Even if I didn't listen to your advice and found this thing, you are still willing to give me confidence."
The old saying goes that tears keep falling.
Looking at the princess and younger sisters who were so worried about him, and then comparing them with his parents and brothers at home who always made him endure, Gu Yu felt that it was really ironic.
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me, Princess. I can't give you any previous dynasty, I can only give you some confidence."
Zhou Qiongyue would not support Gu Yu's husband and son. Such a future can only be earned by oneself, there is no shortcut.
"That's enough." Although Gu Yu wanted her husband to enter the officialdom, she also knew her limits.
Afterwards, Gu Yu chatted with Zhou Qiongyue about some interesting things outside. Zhou Qiongyue asked Gu Yu to go downstairs with Gu Lan and Gu Mei to reminisce about the past. She also rewarded them with a delicious meal at noon and asked Gu Lan and Gu Mei to accompany Gu Yu.
When Gu Yu, Gu Lan and Gu Mei finished their meal and came to say goodbye, Zhou Qiongyue rewarded Gu Yu's son with a fine inkstone, specifically mentioning that it was for Gu Yu's son.
Gu Yu was rewarded with several gold hairpins that she had worn before. One of them had a mark made by the imperial palace, which could be regarded as a talisman for Gu Yu.
Gu Yu held the things in his hands and left with many thanks again, only silently remembering the princess's great kindness in his heart.
As soon as Gu Yu left, Gu Lan couldn't wait to tell Zhou Qiongyue the detailed gossip.
It turns out that once Gu Yu got married, she was obsessed with love for a long time. Although her mother-in-law was mean at that time, her husband would always protect her.
Sometimes her husband would come into direct conflict with his mother-in-law because of her.
Gu Yu once thought that she had married a good man and was happy with anything she did. She also tried her best to obey her mother-in-law and not let her husband be embarrassed in the middle.
She also tried not to argue with her sisters-in-law and did more of the work she was supposed to do. She also gave her husband her dowry so that he wouldn't have to worry about money for his studies.
Later, even when her mother-in-law invited her niece from her mother's family to live at home, she implied that her family had wronged her niece, and she almost said in ancient language that they had stolen her niece's husband.
Gu Yu really couldn't stand the humiliation, so she ran back home for the first time. However, she didn't expect that her parents and brother would think it was her fault and told her to endure it.
For the first time, she felt incredible and isolated.
After that incident, no matter how wronged Gu Yu felt, she would never run back to her parents' home again.
This was the first time Gu Yu grew up, and then she caught her husband and his cousin in love.
At that moment, Gu Yu thought she would be furious and would go up and beat up the adulterous couple.
But Gu Yu was unexpectedly calm. She just turned around and walked away quietly holding the child.
Perhaps she also had some doubts about what her husband said on a daily basis.
In the days that followed, Gu Yu acted as if she hadn't noticed what was going on between them, but she held on to the dowry money even more tightly.
Not to mention her sisters-in-law and mother-in-law, even her husband can't easily get money from her.
Anyway, as long as the mother-in-law makes trouble for Gu Yu, the husband will not have any money next time he asks for it.
Over time, Gu Yu discovered that her mother-in-law had become much easier to get along with. She simply felt sad for the girl who had once only wanted a good life.
When Gu Yu's child grew up a little, Gu Yu arranged for her husband and his cousin to have an affair and let the whole village see it. When the two of them were hurriedly putting on their clothes to shirk responsibility, Gu Yu took advantage of the chaos and pushed her husband.
Originally, Gu Yu wanted her husband to disappear, but things did not go as she wished. Her husband's cousin pulled her husband up, and her husband did not hit his head, but hit a special part of the body.
From then on, you can't have children.
Gu Yu was also very happy with this result. This matter had been settled by the patriarch in the countryside, and Gu Yu's family now had a concubine.
But now all the hatred of her husband's family was directed at that cousin. Gu Yu's life was relatively good.
Therefore, Gu Yu is now more willing to pay money to support her husband in taking the exam.
After listening to this, Zhou Qiongyue took a deep breath and could only say that everyone has their own path to walk!
Although Gu Yu has experienced a lot of hardships, she has grown up and does not regret her original choice. Zhou Qiongyue thinks that is enough.
