Chapter 15 Sister-in-law is reborn (End)
Gu Qingcheng blinked, her big round eyes full of confusion.
She simply couldn't understand why the master was laughing so happily.
However, she could feel that the master was truly happy.
The master was happy, and Gu Qingcheng was happy too.
She opened her little mouth and smiled with her eyebrows and eyes curved.
"Good boy! Our Qingcheng is a good boy!"
Master Qingmiao felt that he had found a treasure.
Qingcheng might be a little dull, but she has a pure heart and is very opinionated when it comes to major issues.
And her ideas were surprisingly consistent with those of Master Qingmiao.
This allowed Qingmiao Zhenren, who was always criticized by the world, to find a "soulmate".
My way is not alone, there are people who will succeed me.
If we say that Master Qing Miao accepted Gu Qingcheng as his disciple mainly because she was good-looking and he wanted to keep her by his side to dazzle his eyes, it was somewhat of a "joke".
But at this moment, True Man Qingmiao really regarded Gu Qingcheng as his "heir".
"Master, I guessed right, didn't I?"
Master Qingmiao was feeling happy, but Gu Qingcheng, who was a few beats slow to react, finally understood why her master had been laughing just now.
“…”
Qingmiao Zhenren: ...
Well, the child is a good child, but his brain is really slow.
However, this is not important, as long as she recognizes Qingcheng and teaches her carefully.
True Man Qingmiao believed that Gu Qingcheng would definitely give her a bigger surprise.
…
Three years passed, and the Gu family's life had undergone tremendous changes.
Li Xiuniang's business grew bigger and bigger, from the initial food store, to a restaurant in the county town, and then to various semi-finished product workshops.
The girl, who was only sixteen years old, had become a well-known female god of wealth.
When Li Xiuniang became successful, some people began to covet her.
She was the Gu family's child bride, and it was no secret in the county.
People outside also found out that Li Xiuniang had not yet consummated her marriage with her nominal husband.
And her husband seemed to have gone to join the army.
Nowadays, people say “good iron is not used to make nails, and good men do not become soldiers.”
Becoming a rough soldier is a choice many poor people have to make out of helplessness.
Li Xiuniang has become a wealthy woman, but her husband is a soldier, they are not a match at all.
"I heard that your mother-in-law used three pounds of beans to exchange you back?"
"Oh, you are such an honest kid. You have earned such a huge fortune for the Gu family over the years. I wonder how many pounds of beans you can buy with it."
"That's right, we haven't consummated the marriage anyway. Let's just forget about it. Wouldn't it be better to find a good man who is literate, kind and honest?"
"...Xiuniang, I know you are kind and have a conscience. But I also heard that your mother-in-law is also a powerful person. When you were in the Gu family, you not only had to serve your parents-in-law, but also your sister-in-law."
"I'm busy all the time, working like a slave, and supporting my brother-in-law's education—"
Several gossipy women who claimed to be kind and said "I'm doing this for your own good" came up to Li Xiuniang and started gossiping about her.
As they talked, they couldn't help but feel sour in their hearts -
The child bride who was bought in exchange for three pounds of beans was used to buy good farmland for the family and build a big house. Wow, this business made the family earn more than a hundred times.
Li Xiuniang looked indifferently at those people who said "I'm doing this for your own good" but were actually trying to sow discord, and was not swayed by their words.
She was reborn on the road of fleeing famine, and re-experienced the pain of losing her mind due to hunger as an adult soul.
Her memory is particularly vivid.
Until now, she still has the habit of hiding food in her room.
There’s no way, I’m scared of being hungry!
She never wanted to experience that stomach-cramping feeling of hunger again.
She remembered vividly the experience of starvation and was especially grateful for the kindness of Zhao and Gu Qingcheng.
Sometimes, Li Xiuniang wondered: In my previous life, why did I hate my mother-in-law and her family so much? They were the ones who saved me first, so shouldn’t I repay them? If Gu Qingcheng knew Li Xiuniang’s doubts, she would tell her: That’s how human nature is. It’s much easier to hold a grudge than to be grateful! Human memory also has the effect of self-correction.
In her previous life, Li Xiuniang gradually forgot the kindness of being bought by the Zhao family, but she firmly remembered her contributions to the Gu family.
This cannot be said that Li Xiuniang only remembers grudges and does not remember kindness, but that is just human nature!
Of course, the Gu family is indeed heartless.
From the beginning to the end, they never considered Li Xiuniang as their own family.
However, in this life, Gu Dahai is not dead, and Zhao is still an ordinary rural old lady who is somewhat selfish.
As for Gu Rao, Li Xiuniang learned the lesson from her previous life, and she would be careful about the extent even when making sacrifices.
Therefore, in this life, Gu Rao did not become an ungrateful person and would not take his sister-in-law's efforts for granted.
He learned to be grateful and became more motivated.
As for Gu Qingcheng——
Li Xiuniang's smile became brighter and brighter. Her darling boy was already seven years old, and had the potential to become a stunning beauty.
I studied under Master Qingmiao for several years, and although I didn't make any progress in academics, I made some progress in calligraphy.
Although the "identity" of Qingmiao Zhenren has not been exposed yet, Gu Qingcheng has gained a resounding reputation in the nearby states and counties by virtue of her reputation as a beautiful calligrapher.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
At this time, some people also discovered that Gu Qingcheng's brain didn't seem to be so smart.
But Gu Qingcheng is no longer an ordinary little country girl.
She is a little calligrapher.
For capable people, being stupid is not a shortcoming, but a sign of a pure heart that is not contaminated by worldly matters.
No one dared to underestimate him, and no one would want to take advantage of Gu Qingcheng's stupidity to do anything.
Firstly, the Gu family is no longer the poor peasant family it once was, but a well-known wealthy family nearby; secondly, although the true identity of Qingmiao Zhenren has not been exposed, some smart people have noticed that this person has a good background;
Thirdly, there is a "little prince" who has always been by Gu Qingcheng's side—Prince Fu, the ninth son of the current emperor.
…
"Qingcheng, my father is seriously ill and has sent someone to ask for my great aunt!"
"You should also go to Beijing with your great aunt."
"Qingcheng, we grew up together. When I first saw you, your smile was as bright as a spring flower."
"I know you're still young and you don't understand this, but I hope you can understand that you are different to me."
Prince Fu once again leaned close to Gu Qingcheng's ear and whispered some childhood sweetheart "sweet words".
He is five years older than Gu Qingcheng and is already twelve years old this year.
He was born into a royal family and was originally smarter and more mature than his peers.
Of course, not all the words he said were lies to deceive Gu Qingcheng.
Recalling the time when he came to his great aunt's house to "recuperate", as soon as he stepped into the house, he saw Gu Qingcheng, who had delicate eyebrows and a beautiful smile.
So clean, so pure, a little beauty as crystal clear as a crystal.
At that moment, Prince Fu's gloomy heart was illuminated.
Prince Fu grew up in the midst of all kinds of conspiracies and intrigues. He was like a lotus root in the mud, stuck in a quagmire and covered in dirt.
He lived in darkness and longed for light.
He is full of "smart ideas" and he particularly likes simplicity and purity.
Gu Qingcheng perfectly meets all his requirements.
Prince Fu felt that this was the destined person given to him by God.
System: ...Well, Prince Fu doesn't mind that Gu Qingcheng is a little fool and is wholeheartedly devoted to her. He seems to be a good candidate.
If she marries him, Gu Qingcheng will be able to live a happy and wealthy life.
Thus, the mission is accomplished.
Gu Qingcheng couldn't sense the system's thoughts.
As she grew older, more images and knowledge emerged in her mind.
Her brain simply couldn't hold so much.
However, Gu Qingcheng also had a way. She simply stopped thinking about it and ignored it, blocking out all those things.
Her reaction was still slow, but as long as she was given time to react, she would always hit the mark.
"You want to curry favor with my master through me!"
There may be love affairs, but they are ultimately not as important as tangible benefits.
Qingmiao Zhenren is not a real Taoist priest. She is the eldest princess who has served three dynasties. Not to mention the wealth in her hands, she also controls a secret armed force of the royal family - Shadow Guards! Qingmiao Zhenren has no children, nor close descendants.
In the past few years, the only person she cared about was Gu Qingcheng.
The reason why Prince Fu "chose" Gu Qingcheng is obvious.
Since Gu Qingcheng was regarded as the "successor" by Master Qingmiao, she naturally had the same thoughts as him.
What is a man?
Isn't it nice to hold power in your own hands?!
This is the first story, which is quite plain. Hehe, the next story will be full of drama! Dear friends, please look forward to it! Please also give recommendations, collections and monthly tickets to the stupid author! (#^.^#)
