Chapter 118 The Male Protagonist's Excellent Mother (V)
A'niang is really beautiful. The peerless beauty described in the books is probably like this.
Zhao Qingyun sighed secretly in his heart.
But then, he realized precociously—
It is a crime to possess a treasure! Can ordinary people like them protect such a beauty?
Or, let the mother remain chaste and give her the identity of a "chaste woman", not only for the sake of their family, but also to give the mother an additional identity for protection.
Zhao Qingyun knew that he was selfish and that he was plotting against his mother.
But when he thought that his mother might be treated as a plaything by the powerful and wealthy because of her looks, he also felt that not letting his mother remarry was also a kind of love for her.
As Zhao Qingyun was thinking this, his aunt's voice rang in his ears again.
My mother was less than 30 years old, not old, and she was so beautiful. She left her family and became a widow for decades.
It seems that it is indeed a bit cruel.
There was a young widow in Zhaojiazhuang, and her life was hard. The widow was in her forties, but she already looked like an old woman.
My mother has such a beautiful face and is so delicate. Will she also be forced by life to become haggard and old?
The whole person is either as fierce as a giant tiger, or as numb as a walking corpse? !
Zhao Qingyun's mind was in a mess. The plan just now and his pity and respect for his mother, the two thoughts were fighting each other.
In a dilemma, Zhao Qingyun instinctively asked, "Mother, do you want to remarry?"
After saying this, Zhao Qingyun seemed to be taking a gamble.
He looked at Gu Qingcheng steadily, as if giving his conscience and his mother one last chance: "You've grown up to be pretty, and you're still so young. If you want to get married again, it should be easy!"
Find a richer family, where you will have no worries about food and clothing, and maybe even have servants to command.
This is also a good destination for a delicate mother!
"Remarry?"
Gu Qingcheng's eyes were filled with confusion, as if she had no idea why her son suddenly said that.
But in Gu Qingcheng's heart, she felt a little satisfied: although this son had some little calculations, he had no love or respect for his mother at all.
"Why do you want to remarry? Your father just left!"
Gu Qingcheng was as ignorant as a girl who knew nothing about the world.
There was no reluctance or remembrance for her late husband in her eyes, only a simple question: Why did she remarry!
Zhao Qingyun: ...Why else? Of course it's because you need someone to take care of you!
If you don't remarry, you won't be able to support the entire family with your slender and delicate appearance.
Zhao Qingyun knew that his biological mother was a naive person. She was almost thirty years old, and if she had married earlier, she could have become a grandmother.
My dear mother's eyes always have a clarity that is almost stupid.
You don’t know the sufferings of the world and you don’t understand the hardships of life.
If it were a slightly more "normal" woman, she would be sad when her husband, the pillar of the family, died, but after the sadness, she would also consider her own future.
His mother, however, had no such concerns! Such a temper!
If she wasn't his own mother, if she wasn't so beautiful, Zhao Qingyun would have been disgusted! "Mother, can you wash clothes and cook? Can you work in the fields? Can you chop wood and fetch water?"
Seeing such a pair of clear eyes that were not contaminated by the mundane world, Zhao Qingyun inexplicably felt angry.
He threw a bunch of questions at me, "And making money to support the family, taking care of your son... are you able to do all of these?"
Gu Qingcheng's almond-shaped eyes widened like an angry little girl, "Of course not!"
That righteous tone seemed to be saying: Son, are you stupid? Don't you know what I, your dear mother, am like?
Zhao Qingyun: ...Of course I'm not stupid! Of course I know!
But, but the problem is, mom, you don’t seem to be aware of these problems.
When asked, you can still confidently say that you don't know! Haha, you don't know anything, but you still don't want to remarry, you, you——
Zhao Qingyun didn't know how to comment on his own mother for a moment.
"Mother, but Dad is gone and you don't know how to do anything. You don't want to remarry, so our family--" What should we do? Should we let a nine-year-old child shoulder everything? Although Zhao Qingyun himself thought so.
But no matter how precocious he was, he was only a half-grown child after all.
Sometimes, he would feel wronged and he would long for a normal childhood.
etc!
What was I thinking? Wasn't it what I hoped for that my mother would not remarry?
I had prepared a lot of excuses, even thinking about the protection that being a "chaste woman" could bring to a young and beautiful woman.
I was waiting to see if my mother wanted to remarry, so that I could persuade her with both emotion and reason.
As a result, my mother had no intention of remarrying, but I was angry again!
This, this——
Zhao Qingyun suddenly felt that he was being a little pretentious. His emotions had affected his mind and he became a little stupid.
No, it’s not that I was affected by my emotions, but my mother’s “power” is too strong!
Zhao Qingyun was lost in thoughts again, and his young face turned pale and blue.
Gu Qingcheng: ...He is still just a child after all. Even if he will grow up to be a calculating, ruthless and powerful official in the future.
And for now, Zhao Qingyun is just a smart and thoughtful little boy.
The troublemaker: ...How dare you say that? You say you don't want to be a top-notch character, but you get into the role faster than anyone else!
With just one encounter, you used your superb acting skills to confuse the wise and almost demonic male protagonist!
"Our family? What happened to our family?"
Gu Qingcheng couldn't hear Huoshui's complaints, and even if she did, she wouldn't care.
The moment she accepted the original owner's memories, she quickly got into the state.
She continued to blink her beautiful and ignorant big eyes and asked foolishly.
If Gu Qingcheng wasn’t so beautiful, and if a woman in her thirties showed this kind of expression, she would be laughed at—
She is not a teenage girl anymore, she is almost thirty. Her face is no longer as tender, her eyes are no longer clear, and fine wrinkles are beginning to appear at the corners of her eyes and mouth.
But she still pretends to be a little girl, which is really an eyesore.
But Gu Qingcheng didn't have such "concerns".
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Her face may not be full of collagen, but it is still fair and moist.
The key is that she is beautiful enough, so beautiful that it is outrageous! The few flaws left by the years are also ignored because of her peerless beauty.
As long as you are beautiful enough, you can do whatever you want.
Isn't it just that she is a little naive and ignorant of the world? Not only does it not make people feel uncomfortable, but it makes people feel distressed and pity, and they can't help but want to protect her.
Including Zhao Qingyun, the biological son who originally disliked his weak mother! As rational and cold as he was, he couldn't get angry at such a perfect beauty.
However, despite his pity, Zhao Qingyun still had to make some things clear.
He sighed in his heart again, wanting to tell his mother directly: his father was dead, and the family lost its pillar. Although he could support the family, it was really hard to be a widow!
Zhao Qingyun is no longer as clear-headed as before. He himself can't figure out what he is doing.
However, before Zhao Qingyun could speak, Gu Qingcheng seemed to suddenly think of something.
She let out a long "Oh", then moved closer to Zhao Qingyun and asked in a low voice: "Da Lang, are you worried that there will be no one to work at home?"
Well, that’s indeed true!
But, dear mother, can't you be a little more tactful?
It's so straightforward that it's very easy to offend people.
When Zhao Qingyun, nine years old, knelt in the mourning hall and kept vigil for his deceased father, he clearly understood his mission:
Support the family, be filial to the widowed mother, and help the younger brother.
He can take care of everything in this house, big and small! But for things like this, he sees through them but doesn't say anything.
Once it was said, as a "working man", Zhao Qingyun did mind a little.
While Zhao Qingyun was secretly struggling, Gu Qingcheng was still talking, "Don't worry! Someone will do the work!"
Anyone?
It's me!
Zhao Qingyun felt a little numb.
"Your grandpa, your grandma, your uncle, your aunt, your second uncle, your second aunt..."
Gu Qingcheng stretched out her slender jade hand and snapped her fingers every time she said a word.
Wait, wait a moment!
Zhao Qingyun suddenly raised his head and looked at his mother in surprise.
Is A Niang saying the opposite of what she means, or is she daydreaming?
Still want the people in the old house to help? Haha, those people in the old house are relatives in name, but in reality they are worse than strangers.
Strangers may feel pity for the orphans and widows and may lend a helping hand.
As for the "relatives" in the old house, they were the first to jump out to bully the mother and her two children, and openly robbed the house and land!
If A Niang had not remarried, if A Niang had not had the support of her brothers, nephews and other family members behind her, with her weak character, the three of them would have been eaten up to the bone!
A Niang is still fantasizing about relying on that group of jackals?
Is A Niang really naive, or is she just pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger?
Zhao Qingyun was completely confused and shocked by Gu Qingcheng, and he felt a little bit lost!
After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Zhao Qingyun asked dryly: "Mother, do you want the people in the old house to help us?"
"certainly!"
Gu Qingcheng acted as if it was a matter of course, and her beautiful eyes were filled with a "stupidity" that made Zhao Qingyun unable to complain.
"We are a family! When your grandma came to me to ask for money and things, she said that even though we have separated, we are still a family."
"If your father is not here, they will help take care of him!"
"Now, your father is gone. I am not in good health, and you and Erlang are still young. Of course, we need help from our 'family'."
Zhao Qingyun: ... Those people are just lying to you, mother!!! As Gu Qingcheng was talking, she seemed to be awakened. She rolled over and got off the bed.
But her movements were a little too violent, and her thin body was shaking a little when she got down from the ground.
"Mother!"
Zhao Qingyun was startled and quickly reached out to support the man.
