Chapter 65 I'm here, shall we go back?
Lord Gu and his wife both looked at Shen Yuan.
Shen Yuan felt like he was on fire, he was going to die.
Does he know that this will cause misunderstandings among others?
Gu Huailing supported Shen Yuan from behind, holding her hand tightly.
His face was cold. He took the whip from Gu Jingchu's hand and threw it on the ground. His eyes were cold and sharp like a knife. "The prince has been beaten confused. Send him back."
Sanjiu immediately stepped forward and wanted to take Gu Jingchu away.
"My Lord, look, our mansion has now become a place where the Grand Secretary Gu has the final say."
"My Lord, if you don't give us mother and son an explanation today, I will crash into the ground and die here."
Lord Gu was getting a headache from the noise. His face turned cold and he said to Gu Huailing, "Apologize to your brother."
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Gu Huailing's face, but his voice remained steady, "Does he deserve it?"
His pupils were like the depths of a cold pond as he swept his gaze over Lord Gu and his wife. "Since you are dissatisfied, then we can divide the mansion."
The words fell.
You can hear a pin drop in the ancestral hall.
Shen Yuan felt the strength in her hand. She looked at Gu Huailing with some worry, and held him even tighter with her backhand.
"I'm not dead yet!" Lord Gu's face changed drastically.
He was not valued by Emperor Tiansheng and only had an idle job. The status of the Marquisate was thriving thanks to Gu Huailing.
All those colleagues in the officialdom who fawned over him were doing so for Gu Huailing's sake.
Separating the residence will definitely do more harm than good to the Gu family.
Lord Gu's face turned ashen as he roared at Gu Huailing, "I just whipped you once and you want to divide the mansion. How could there be such a disobedient and unfilial son like you in this world?"
"You grew up in the Marquisate since you were little. How have I ever wronged you? Now that you've grown up, you're trying to distance yourself from your biological father. How could that be anything but ungrateful?"
"Your body and hair are inherited from your parents. The blood flowing in your body is from our Gu family. Separate the family? Can you get rid of it completely?"
Lord Gu roared more and more angrily, pointing at Gu Huailing with trembling fingers, "You have such a bad temper! You really inherited that old mother of yours, so stubborn and stubborn!"
Gu Huailing's expression instantly turned cold. He let go of Shen Yuan's hand and approached Lord Gu step by step, "How dare you mention my mother?"
Lord Gu was so frightened that he took a step back and raised his hand in a bluffing manner, "What? Do you still want to kill your father?"
Before the slap could land on Gu Huailing's face, he was stopped by Old Madam Gu from behind.
The old lady slapped Lord Gu hard on the face with her backhand, "You bastard, do you still want to hit Ling'er?"
Lord Gu was slapped hard in the face and did not dare to defend himself.
Madam Gu patted Gu Huailing's hand and said, "Don't worry, my dear grandson. I will definitely support you with my grandmother."
After saying this, she looked at Lord Gu and angrily scolded him, "How could the Gu family, a century-old family, produce such a fool as you? Why did Huai Ling discipline Jing Chu? You two, use your pig brains to think about this?"
"If he didn't think about that little bit of brotherhood, would he punish him?"
Madam Gu raised her hand and beckoned Gu Jingchu over. "Jingchu, Grandmother asks you, are you dissatisfied with your eldest brother's punishment?"
"Grandson... I submit." Gu Jingchu clenched his fists.
Madam Gu's eyes were sharp, "You fool, you, as a father, are not as smart as your two sons."
After saying that, she sighed, took Gu Huailing's hand with one hand, and Gu Jingchu's hand with the other, and held the two brothers' hands together.
She softened her tone and said, "Grandma is old and doesn't have many days left to live. I can't bear to see you brothers fighting against each other. You know, fighting within the same family is rotten to the core. You are all good children and will not let Grandma down."
Chen Yuan listened from the side, feeling increasingly cold in the heart.
Old Madam Gu used family affection to weave a net, covering Gu Huailing tightly.
The responsibility of supporting the Gu family was forced upon Gu Huailing.
Does Madam Gu love Gu Huailing? Of course she does.
But she valued the century-old gate of the Gu Mansion more, which was a lifelong shackle on the old lady.
Was she wrong? Clearly not.
Chen Yuan felt depressed and uncomfortable. She looked at Gu Huailing and used all her strength to force back her tears.
Gu Huailing pulled his hand out of Madam Gu's grasp, looked at the tablet of Marquis Gu, and said calmly, "Don't worry, Grandma. I know what to do."
Shen Yuan could hardly suppress the bitterness in her heart.
She walked over, pulled Gu Huailing's sleeve and whispered, "Sir, I'm here. Can we go back?"
Gu Huailing thought he could control his emotions very well, but when the woman pulled his sleeve, his heart ached slightly.
Gu Huailing shook Chen Yuan's hand, "Okay."
Old Madam Gu looked at the backs of the two people, and her eyes were a little red. She knew that Ling'er was resentful in her heart.
Her grandson was too aloof and intelligent. He was so young and held such a high position, so he was really lonely.
Fortunately, he has a woman by his side whom he likes and who likes him.
Old Madam Gu withdrew her gaze and saw Gu Jingchu, who was in a daze, and sighed heavily in her heart.
After leaving the ancestral hall, Chen Yuan immediately instructed Taozi, "Go to Huichun Hall to invite Elder Chen and bring the best medicine for the wounds."
"It's just a minor injury. Shenduyuan has no shortage of medicine. Madam, could you go back and help me apply the medicine?" Gu Huailing stopped Taozi and looked at Chen Yuan with gentle eyes.
The blood-stained handkerchief spread out in the copper basin. Shen Yuan looked at the whip marks on Gu Huailing's back, and her eyes instantly turned red.
"Sir? Does it hurt?" Chen Yuan's voice was choked with sobs as he gently wiped the blood around the wound.
Gu Huailing turned around and looked at Chen Yuan gently, "Don't cry, it's just a minor injury."
Chen Yuan suppressed the bitterness in her heart, picked up the ointment beside her, and gently applied it to Gu Huailing's wound.
Gu Huailing sat still, as if he was not the one injured.
"Sir, just bear with it and it will be fine soon." Chen Yuan's hands moved more gently. She applied the medicine and blew gently, trying to help Gu Huailing relieve the pain.
The woman's fingertips were slightly cold, and wherever her fingers passed, they took away all of Gu Huailing's depressed emotions.
After Chen Yuan applied the ointment to Gu Huailing, she put it aside.
Looking at him, he said seriously, "Master, you are not allowed to get hurt again."
The woman's eyes were filled with tears, and her exceptionally clear pupils were filled with heartache.
Gu Huailing pulled her into his arms and said, "It's my fault for making Madam worry."
"It's very hard, isn't it, sir? It's very tiring to reach a high position and support the Gu family alone."
Chen Yuan put her arms around his waist, buried her face in Gu Huailing's arms and spoke sullenly.
Gu Huailing was slightly startled, and a warm current surged from the bottom of his heart and flowed to every part of his body.
"Now that I have a wife, all these hardships are no longer suffering. If I had not been born in the Gu family, how could I have married a wife?" Gu Huailing hugged Chen Yuan and said softly.
If the suffering he endured in his childhood was to make him get what he wanted, then he thought it was all worth it.
Shen Yuan stepped out of Gu Huailing's arms and looked up at him. She couldn't help crying. Her eyes were soaked with tears.
She took Gu Huailing's hand and put it against her heart.
"I will love you well and give you a home. As long as I am here, you will never be alone again."
The woman's eyes were bright and her voice was sincere.
Gu Huailing raised his hand to cover his heart. He felt like something was collapsing there.
