Chapter 625 627. Is there any evidence?
Gu Wenheng broke the silence at this moment, clasped his hands and bowed to his brothers, "Thank you for your hard work at home."
Gu Yuanjin hurriedly imitated him in returning the greeting, "We are all brothers, let's not talk about these things. Besides, you have brought honor to our family and protection to the clan. We brothers should thank you."
Gu Yuanmu and the others also imitated the eldest brother and felt nervous. The Seventh Brother was such a high-ranking official, but he still saluted them, and they didn't dare to accept it.
"Okay, you brothers, stop fighting here." Li Cuicui looked at the brothers getting along so harmoniously that her face became as beautiful as a chrysanthemum.
"you……"
Before Li Cuicui finished speaking, there was another knocking sound coming from the side room, which made it impossible for people not to pay attention.
"Okay, you guys go meet your dad too!" Li Cuicui said with a scornful smile, "The cups and the table in this room can no longer be saved.
Apart from eating and drinking, being a burden to children and grandchildren, the only skill left is to squander money."
Gu Wenheng, "It's time to go and greet Dad."
Jin Qianqian followed behind, holding the two children.
Just as they were about to enter the room, Li Cuicui got ahead of them and said, "I will go in with you and receive your gift together with your father."
Gu Wenheng, "..."
When everyone entered the room, they saw debris all over the floor.
Gu Wenheng was afraid that the two children would step on the fragments, so he carefully kicked some of the fragments into the corner as he walked.
Li Cuicui had already noticed his little move and shouted to the outside of the door, "Luo Gang, come in and clean up the room."
At the same time, I felt a little regretful. Why didn’t I think of it before?
"What's there to clean up? There are only these few things in the whole room. What's the matter? Can't an old man like me vent a little?" Gu Dashi supported himself with one hand and stared at everyone with a gloomy face.
Especially on Gu Wenheng, he stayed there for a long time, "Look, our most promising son is back.
You are just like your mother, cruel. You have been out there for so long and you didn't even think of me, your biological father.
If I hadn't smashed the cup to remind you, you probably wouldn't have thought of coming in to see me when you left."
Gu Wenheng knew that Gu Dashi was trying to embarrass him, so he lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, "Dad, your unfilial son is back to see you."
"Humph, it's really quite unfilial."
Jin Qianqian followed behind with her two children and also knelt down to pay their respects.
Li Cuicui saw her son's family kneeling on the ground, so she walked over to help Jin Qianqian stand up, and pulled up her two grandsons beside her, "We are a family, so there is no need for these empty formalities."
She turned around and pulled Gu Wenheng up again, "Mom knows that your family are all filial and come from peasant families, but you can't act like that old man and his wife.
Knowing that you have returned safely, your father and I feel relieved.
Live your life well in the future, which is the greatest filial piety to us two elders."
Gu Dashi, "Did I let them get up?"
Li Cuicui turned her head and glanced at him, "What's the matter? My son is worshipping his parents, so can't I, as a mother, make the decision?
Your legs are paralyzed now, and you will have to rely on the filial piety of your children and grandchildren in the future. Don't forget that you have beautiful maids and loyal servants to serve you, but it is because of your sons working hard outside that you have a good life.
Is this a desire to burn bridges after crossing them, or a desire to return to the previous poor life?
I don't mind serving you, an old man, but it depends on whether you can bear it?"
How could Gu Dashi not understand the threat behind her words, but this was his last chance to turn things around.
"Old Seven stay, everyone else go out first."
Li Cuicui sat directly on the kang and said, "Since your father has something to tell your seventh brother, then you all should go out."
Gu Yuanjin and the others looked back and forth for a while, and finally, at the signal from Gu Wenheng, they gritted their teeth and left the room.
Jin Qianqian raised her eyebrows and glanced at the old couple sitting next to her, then she took the two children and followed the Gu family to the yard.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry. Mom is in there. Nothing will happen." Liu Liu saw her looking back at the room several times in a row, thinking that she was worried, and hurriedly comforted her.
Jin Qianqian smiled at her and said, "We are all family, there is nothing to worry about.
It’s just that we’ve been in a hurry on the way back and haven’t had our meal yet. Why don’t we go to the kitchen to see if there’s anything to eat?
It's a good opportunity for us to get together later."
Liu Liu, "That's great, I'll go see what my mother-in-law has prepared, if it's not enough, I'll ask someone to go back and get it.
But I think mother-in-law should have made preparations long ago. When she heard that you were coming back last time, she even collected some chickens and ducks from various families, saying that you would have a dish when you came back. "
"With mother and sisters-in-law thinking of me, all my tiredness along the way is gone." Jin Qianqian showed her dimples and smiled with gratitude, which instantly reduced the sense of strangeness among the sisters-in-law.
Seeing the more affectionate expressions of her sisters-in-law, Jin Qianqian also threw herself into it.
Unlike the lively atmosphere outside, the atmosphere in the room was a little cold.
Gu Dashi waited for a long time, but did not see Li Cuicui go out. He frowned and shouted at her, "I have something to say to Lao Qi. If you have nothing to do, go down first."
"Your words are interesting. What can an old man like you say to your son?
It’s rare for Lao Qi to come back, and as his mother, I want to stay with him for a while longer.
If you have anything to say, just say it. I won't bother you any more."
Ancient boulders,...
"Dad, we are all family, so just speak frankly. Besides, mom is not an outsider.
From childhood to adulthood, whenever there was any problem in our family, it was always my mother who solved it. Even if my son separated from the family, my mother could still make the decision. "
Gu Dashi, "...You are indeed your mother's filial sons..."
"Dad, I am also filial to you." Gu Wenheng said very seriously, "And I believe that my other brothers are just as filial."
Gu Dashi just felt a tightness in his chest. He thought that his son would be able to make decisions for him when he came back, but now it seems that he is on the same side as that woman.
"Do you know why your father is lying here?"
Gu Wenheng, "...Didn't my son ask someone to invite Doctor Chu from Daocheng to come over? What did he say?"
“How else can I put it? My legs are completely hopeless and I will never be able to stand up again.
You don't know, but this is all caused by your mother.
Since you are an official, you should do the deed for your father and arrest this woman and put her in the prison of the government office.
She murdered her husband, I will sue her."
Gu Wenheng looked helpless, "Does Dad have any witnesses or physical evidence? You also know that officials must have evidence to judge a case. If you rely on one-sided testimony, it will lead to a wrongful conviction."
Gu Dashi wanted to grab something and throw it over, but he found that there was nothing around him except a quilt.
