Chapter 246 247. Shi Dayong
When Gu Wenheng thought about what had happened in the past two days, he regretted making the trip in person. Even if he had asked the housekeeper to go, no one would have complained.
"You should have an impression of this person that my mother found for her, Shi Dayong, who escaped with her before.
In Xinkeng Village not far from us, it seems that his wife couldn't hold on during the escape and left two children behind.
Moreover, this person has some connection with our family. Last time, the old man was left at the entrance of the village and almost froze to death. It was only when he happened to meet them that he was saved.”
"This can be considered as a life-saving favor. Is my mother-in-law really repaying me?" Now that there were no outsiders in the room, Jin Qianqian had no scruples and said whatever she thought.
Gu Wenheng had a different idea, "We all made a mistake this time. Although Shi Dayong is just an ordinary citizen, he has his own ideas. He would choose Gu Yuanfeng as his second wife. I guess he has weighed the pros and cons."
"Can he suppress Gu Yuanfeng?" This is the issue that Jin Qianqian is most concerned about now. She hopes that her life will become a mess and she will have to go back to her parents' home to stir up trouble.
Gu Wenheng, "Not only did he suppress Gu Yuanfeng yesterday, he also got rid of the He family members who wanted to cause trouble. Although this person looks honest, he is actually a cruel person."
"Won't your Sixth Sister suffer a little?"
Gu Wenheng, "This man is not as stupid as the He family. Moreover, we brothers are different now, otherwise he would not have arranged this marriage."
Jin Qianqian understood immediately, "So now as long as Gu Yuanfeng doesn't commit suicide, he can live like this.
But I think it’s better not to let Shi Dayong get involved in the tofu recipe.”
Gu Wenheng, "Let's wait and see for a while. As long as he is not a big villain, we should help him if he is willing."
The fence in your backyard must be built firmly, otherwise it will be a hidden danger in the future.
They are working so hard now because they don't want to be dragged down in the future.
Jin Qianqian, "So your sister was so happy to follow him? I seem to remember that she was always in contact with the He family before, and she was always wondering when she would go back."
"She cried and shouted that she didn't want to get married, but she had no say in the matter. It was her boss' words, her parents' orders, and there were so many clan members watching her. Even if she wanted to make a scene, she couldn't."
Jin Qianqian understood the implication of Gu Wenheng's words. It was not that she didn't want to make a fuss, but that she didn't dare to.
"What about the accompanying gift?"
"Even with the few pieces of cloth she brought back, she was considered outstanding in the village." Gu Wenheng hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's just that her daughter is still at home, with her mother taking care of her."
Jin Qianqian glanced at him and said, "I don't want to have another child in our family."
Even though the other party was just a girl, she was unwilling.
If she acknowledged her, she would take the position of the eldest daughter and be kept by her side to be raised. In case she became ambitious in the future, she would not want to cause trouble for herself.
Gu Wenheng, "What are you thinking? Am I that unreliable?
I just heard my mother mention it, and I plan to ask my eldest brother and the others to send me to the He family today. I just don’t know what my fate will be after entering the He family. "
Jin Qianqian, "Why don't you bring her along when you get married?"
Gu Wenheng snorted, "Shi Dayong is a good person. When he came to pick us up, he said he could bring the children with him, since he also has two children.
But no one expected that the most cruel and vicious person was the child's own mother, who cried and made a fuss to send the child to the He family."
If the He family were kind people, there would be no problem in sending the child back. However, judging from the He Chuncao who was brought here yesterday, she was even more miserable than when she was fleeing famine. This shows what kind of people the He family is.
If such a small child is sent back, can he survive? Or is it another question?
"Mom, you don't really want to send her back, do you?" Jin Qianqian couldn't believe that Li Cuicui couldn't see the current situation.
Gu Wenheng, “Although the old lady didn’t say anything, I can see that she must have had some thoughts on it.
When she held the child and seemed hesitant to talk to me, I asked Butler Fu to pack up and leave."
With her attitude so obvious, the old lady was not unaware of the situation. She never brought up the topic again until the moment he left the village.
Jin Qianqian: "In fact, it is best for the child to be with his biological mother."
The topic was just over, and when they received the next news, they found out that the He family came and took the child away for some unknown purpose.
Although Jin Qianqian was also worried about the baby, she soon could no longer take care of it because her pregnancy reactions began to become obvious.
She is not like other people who vomit whatever they eat, but she has a big appetite and her taste changes three times a day.
Just like now, she is sitting in the space holding a durian with a look of enjoyment on her face.
Gu Wenheng, who was accompanying the guest, hid in a corner of the space, covering his nose.
"You really don't want to have some? After you eat it, you will want to continue." Jin Qianqian squinted her eyes happily and did not forget to greet him.
Gu Wenheng shook his head worriedly. His wife's taste was too weird. She had just eaten a large portion of stinky tofu at noon, and now she wanted durian. Would there really be nothing wrong with the baby she gave birth to?
Aren’t there usually sour boys and spicy girls? What’s the situation now?
The two wondered if staying in the space for a long time would affect the baby in her belly? After quickly satisfying their cravings, the two appeared in the room again.
This was not the first time they had such a late-night snack, and the two did not sit down to rest immediately, but slowly digested the food in the room.
"Wife, I may have to leave for a while." Gu Wenheng stirred the wick of the candlestick, making the whole room brighter, then he looked at Jin Qianqian and said.
"Where are we going?" Jin Qianqian felt that she was being a little pretentious at this moment and felt a little uncomfortable.
Gu Wenheng, "Prince Bai sent me a letter saying that he was planning to build a glass workshop near Daocheng and asked me to go over and keep an eye on it."
"Didn't we agree that you wouldn't care about what happens here?"
Gu Wenheng, "Prince Bai has received an errand from His Majesty and is currently dealing with local officials. He cannot leave for the time being, so he asked me to help him."
Jin Qianqian was confused, "Didn't he just pass the imperial examination? How can he be a consul now?"
"This is the difference between the rich and powerful and the poor," Gu Wenheng explained to Jin Qianqian in detail, "Since Bai Jinglie was conferred the title of Marquis Wu'an's son, he already has a rank. Even if he doesn't take the imperial examination, he can still get an official position, and his rank is not small."
Jin Qianqian, "...I almost forgot about this, but didn't he have a higher starting point when he took the imperial examination?"
“Although it’s not mentioned in the letter, his situation is probably not that good.
Take the stepmother at home who was eyeing him covetously, for example. The fact that he was able to obtain the position of Crown Prince was also due to the grace of the Emperor.
In fact, it is not difficult to guess that he is now old enough and has passed the imperial examination, so this important event of his life is the best target."
