Chapter 476 Speculations
Surprise?
No, to be exact, I am speechless.
Gu Qingcheng raised her head, and her increasingly beautiful face was filled with indescribable expressions.
Seeing his granddaughter's appearance, Gu Heng, who was originally full of anger, couldn't help but laugh.
"Ah Qing, you didn't expect that!"
As he laughed, Gu Heng showed self-mockery on his face again, "I can't imagine that in my Gu family, there is actually such an idiot!"
A big shot in the court like Gu Heng, who never shows his emotions, pays great attention to the art of speaking.
That is, the words are all vague and can only be understood but not expressed in words.
It is extremely rare for someone to blurt out the word "idiot" as he did today.
From this we can see that Gu Heng was really angry and really shocked.
Gu Qingcheng: ...
She was speechless too.
In her impression, her cousin Gu Youyi's presence is not very strong.
It’s not that Gu Qingcheng has a bad relationship with her cousin.
In fact, as a senior official who has lived two lives and has a broad mind and a global vision, Gu Qingcheng doesn't care at all about the feelings or grudges between the sisters.
In her previous life, Gu Youyi was just an ordinary lady from aristocratic family.
Apart from his outstanding appearance, his talent, personality, growth trajectory, and subsequent marriage were all quite normal.
Not the best, but not bad either.
Come to think of it, if you come from a prominent family, aren't too ugly, aren't a bad person, or are extremely stupid, your life won't be too bad.
Not to mention that the Gu family also has a Gu Qing.
As Empress, Empress Dowager, and Grand Empress Dowager, Gu Qing was honored for decades, and the Gu family prospered for decades.
With her around, as long as Gu Youyi doesn't act up, she won't have a miserable ending.
Gu Qingcheng lived a new life, and apart from her appearance, she had no other obsessions.
Nor will they dwell on certain grudges from their youth.
After rebirth, Gu Qingcheng didn’t even care too much about Gu Youyi.
At most, we learned through letters that Gu Youyi went to the Northern Dynasty, and this time since Gu Qingcheng was not in the Northern Dynasty, Gu Youyi seemed to show up.
She and Yuwen Heng became childhood sweethearts, and she also helped Yuwen Heng with advice.
The two of them seem to be a couple made in heaven.
If Gu Qingcheng had not revealed her ambitions, Gu Youyi and Yuwen Heng would definitely be considered a "match made in heaven".
Gu Heng, as well as the brothers Gu Yi and Gu Ji who were in the Northern Dynasty, would also be happy to see this happen.
However, Gu Qingcheng showed great ambition, and had the ability and courage to match his ambition!
The thoughts of brothers Gu Heng and Gu Yi began to change.
Supporting the son-in-law?
What could be better than supporting your own family!
Especially in the past few years, Gu Qingcheng has developed a recipe for purifying rock salt, "invented" the horseshoe, and has also developed lucrative projects such as sea salt and sugar.
This makes the people at the helm of the Gu family feel that Aqing is more reliable.
Relying on Gu Qingcheng's continuous inflow of money, the Gu Yi brothers quickly expanded their influence in the Northern Dynasty.
It’s much easier than my previous life.
In the previous life, the Gu family was a poor family that fled to the Northern Dynasty.
Although the Gu family and Yuwensong are also cooperating, Yuwensong has a slight advantage.
And in this life, although he is still on the run, he has too many cards up his sleeve.
Even the emperor of the Northern Dynasty looked at the Gu family differently.
In a way, Gu Yi is more respectable than Yuwen Song.
Yuwensong does have military power, but Gu Yi has money and food.
In an era of constant war, money and food are king.
As long as Gu Yi wanted, he could always form a team with money and food.
So, this time, it was Yu Wensong who tried hard to get close to the Gu family.
Yuwen Heng's importance was reduced again.
Gu Heng had already made up his mind not to get too deeply involved with Yuwensong.
Don’t even think about losing your granddaughter!
As early as four years ago, Gu Heng told Gu Yi and Gu Ji about this idea.
The Gu Yi brothers also agreed with this.
But——
"Idiot! Such an idiot!"
Gu Heng was so angry that he cursed once and it was not enough, he continued to call someone, oh no, some people stupid.
That’s right, there is more than one idiot on the Northern Dynasty side.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This is probably the main reason why Gu Heng was angry——
"Li Nu is still young and doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. He made a mistake out of self-righteousness. This is nothing."
"But what about her? She is the mistress of the second branch of the Gu family after all. She is almost forty years old. Why is she still like this, like this——"
Even someone as knowledgeable as Gu Heng was at a loss for words when talking about his stupid daughter-in-law.
He really didn't know how to describe it.
Of course, it is also possible that he was concerned about Xie’s identity.
After all, she is a daughter-in-law, not a daughter-in-law. As a father-in-law, it is not easy for him to scold his daughter-in-law directly.
But Gu Heng couldn't help it.
Gu Qingcheng: ...It is not appropriate for a father-in-law to scold his daughter-in-law directly. As a junior, it is even more inappropriate for her to comment on the right and wrong of her aunt.
Gu Qingcheng even tried to defend herself, "Maybe Auntie also feels sorry for her daughter."
As parents, as long as they truly love their children, no one can defeat their children.
When it comes to compromise between parents and children, it is often the parents who give in first.
For example, in the case of Gu Youyi, she insisted on marrying Yuwen Heng, and even went so far as to make a scene of falling into the water with Yuwen Heng in public. What could Xie do? Apart from helping to deal with the aftermath and persuade her, could she beat Gu Youyi to death? Of course, there were other ways.
This crisis can be resolved by temporarily sending him to Zhuangzi to recuperate, or by sending him directly back to the Southern Dynasty.
But Gu Youyi disagrees.
And Xie should have his own little thoughts.
Although Gu Qingcheng is impatient with the secret calculations in the backyard, she has a deep and clear understanding of human nature.
Greed, jealousy, etc. are also human nature.
Xie came from a prominent family and married into the Gu family, who was also from a prominent family.
A perfect match, a match made in heaven.
However, Xie did not marry Gu's eldest son, and she was not the mistress of the household.
Although she didn't have a mother-in-law above her, she had a princess from a royal family.
The king is noble and the ministers are humble. Even if they are sisters-in-law, Xie has to be respectful and yield to the princess and her sister-in-law.
If Xiao had always been a princess, Xie might have continued to endure it.
It’s a pity that the Xiao family’s empire was destroyed.
They were all girls from noble families who fled to the Northern Dynasties, and Xie's family background was much higher than Xiao's.
After years of "suffering", Xie's mentality will definitely change once he "turns over".
Gu Youyi is about the same age as Gu Qingcheng, but because of her mediocre talents, even though she is more beautiful, she is not as famous as Gu Qingcheng.
It cannot be said that both Xie's mother and daughter live under the shadow of the eldest son's mother and daughter, as there is also a gap in their hearts.
Now, having met Yuwen Heng, a good candidate who is a member of the Northern Dynasty royal family and holds military power, Gu Qingcheng can fully understand why Xie mother and daughter would "go all in".
After all, Yuwen Heng is really capable and will be able to compete for the throne in the future.
etc!
future?
Gu Qingcheng suddenly thought of a possibility...
