Chapter 112 Clearly Treating Her as a Sucker
Chu Ruohan adopted a little beggar of unknown origin, and this matter soon reached the ears of Marquis Anyang.
This caused the dissatisfaction of Marquis Anyang, but was blocked by Gu Junze. Isn't he just a child?
It’s not like the Anyang Marquis’ Mansion can’t afford to support her, so just keep her if she likes!
Gu Yun is also a likable person, his mouth is like honey.
In the past two days in Hongmeng Courtyard, he kept calling "Dad" and "Mom", which not only made Chu Ruohan feel warm in her heart, but also softened the heart of Gu Junze, who was usually cold.
Gu Junze, dressed in a moon-white brocade robe, sat leisurely under the corridor, holding a cup of fragrant tea in his hand, quietly enjoying this moment of tranquility.
In the yard not far away, Chu Ruohan, dressed in a neat suit, was doing horse stance seriously.
After practicing for a long time, her posture became straight and her horse stance was performed meticulously.
Gu Yun opened his big round eyes and watched curiously.
The little guy tilted his head, then moved closer, chattering non-stop.
"Mom, why are you standing like this? Aren't you tired?"
Chu Ruohan smiled and replied: "This is practicing. When you grow up, you can learn it too."
When Gu Yun heard this, his eyes lit up immediately and he said excitedly, "Really? Then I want to be as awesome as my mother!"
Gu Junze looked at this scene, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a faint smile.
He looked at Chu Ruohan and Gu Yun, and an unprecedented warmth and satisfaction surged in his heart.
He is no longer alone, he has a wife and children. So what if he is paralyzed for life?
"Five years old is not young anymore, it's time to start enlightenment," Gu Junze murmured to himself.
He thought about it for a long time, wanting to find a teacher for him, but in the end he decided to do it himself.
Gu Junze has extensive knowledge of classics, history, poetry, and songs.
After spending the past few days together, he also understood a little about Gu Yun's temperament.
Gu Junze felt that teaching him was the best option.
He seemed to have seen that under his guidance, Gu Yun gradually grew into a knowledgeable and responsible young man.
On the other side, in the Minister’s residence.
Gu Jiacheng was beaten so badly that he was bedridden for several days. He has only shown some improvement recently.
He was half leaning on the bed, his face still pale, but his eyes showed some shrewdness and calculation.
He called Aunt Li over and said, "Take Xuan'er with you to the Marquis' Mansion to apologize on my behalf. And at the same time, test the attitudes of Gu Junze and his wife."
When Aunt Li heard this, she immediately understood what Gu Jiacheng meant.
He got into trouble and asked her to clean up the mess.
Aunt Li set off immediately. Even if the master and the mistress were dissatisfied, she could not let anyone ruin Xuan'er's future.
————
Aunt Li carried Xuan Ge'er into the yard and saw Chu Ruohan wearing a light purple silk dress, smiling and playing with a little boy on the swing.
The swing was newly made, and the rope swayed gently in the breeze. The little boy sat on the swing, pushing it patiently. The picture was warm and beautiful.
Aunt Li hurried forward and knelt respectfully, "Greetings, Madam Crown Prince."
Chu Ruohan heard the voice, turned around, and her eyes fell on Aunt Li and Xuan Ge'er, with a faint expression on her face, "No need to be so polite."
Speaking of which, Chu Ruohan hasn't seen Xuan Ge'er for quite a while.
Now, she is not so concerned about adopting Xuan Ge'er.
Looking at this moment, she couldn't help but think of what Gu Jiacheng said when he was drunk in Huajinlou.
He also wanted to become the old master of Anyang Marquis's Mansion.
She raised his son for him, and he came to reap the benefits.
Chu Ruohan sneered in her heart. This man is ugly, but he has beautiful thoughts.
Once a child is adopted, according to the rules, he or she will no longer have any relationship with his or her biological parents.
But looking at the looks of Gu Jiacheng and Aunt Li, it was clear that their intentions were not pure, and they were clearly treating her as a sucker.
Despite having a myriad of thoughts in her mind, Chu Ruohan still maintained a gentle smile on her face.
She walked forward, gently picked up Xuan Ge'er and started teasing him.
At this time, Gu Yun also came over curiously. He opened his big watery eyes and asked in confusion, "Mom, where did this little brother come from?"
This crisp "mother" was like a thunderclap, which instantly startled Aunt Li's mind.
"Ma'am, what is this?"
Chu Ruohan looked down at Gu Yun, the smile on her face becoming more gentle, and she said softly, "My son."
When Aunt Li heard this answer, her face instantly turned very ugly.
She never imagined that Chu Ruohan actually adopted another child.
Then what should her brother Xuan do?
For a moment, she couldn't help but blame Gu Jiacheng in her heart. It was all his fault for talking nonsense after drinking, which made things like this.
Aunt Li forced a smile on her face and began to test it quietly.
While observing Chu Ruohan's expression, she asked cautiously, "Madam, this child looks so cute. I wonder which branch of the Gu family he comes from?"
After learning that Gu Yun was a miserable beggar.
Aunt Li suddenly felt disdainful. How could such a wild child of humble origin be compared with her brother Xuan?
She is not worthy of competing with her brother Xuan for a position.
Gu Yun was happily eating the snack in his hand, "Give some to your brother too."
Chu Ruohan smiled and touched Gu Yun's head, saying, "He can't eat snacks yet. He needs milk."
Gu Yun nodded, not quite understanding. He had just been weaned not long ago. The wet nurse who had been taking care of him was killed by bad people, and he had no milk to drink since then.
A trace of loneliness flashed across his face.
Chu Ruohan keenly noticed the change in Gu Yun's mood, "Brother Yun, what's wrong?"
As she spoke, she put Brother Xuan back into Aunt Li's arms, then squatted down and looked at Gu Yun tenderly.
Gu Yun shook his head, dived into Chu Ruohan's arms, and whispered, "Mom, you smell so good."
Aunt Li looked at Chu Ruohan, who was obviously fond of Gu Yun, and became increasingly anxious.
She subconsciously hugged Xuan Ge'er tightly in her arms, her heart burning with jealousy, and the look she gave Gu Yun seemed to be able to spit fire.
He wished he could immediately pull this "Cheng Yaojin" who showed up out of nowhere out of Chu Ruohan's arms.
In her eyes, Xuan Ge'er is the child who is most qualified to receive Chu Ruohan's protection and love.
Only if Xuan Ge'er successfully becomes Chu Ruohan's son, can she truly have someone to rely on in the capital and live a good life.
No, this can't happen...
The emotion in Aunt Li's eyes was too obvious for Chu Ruohan to ignore.
Looking at Aunt Li's appearance, Chu Ruohan's last bit of good impression towards Xuan Ge'er disappeared.
He immediately ordered them to leave.
After Aunt Li completely disappeared, Chu Ruohan said, "Tell the gatekeeper not to let Aunt Li in anymore."
"yes."
Chu Ruohan saw clearly that Gu Yun was her son now.
The Gu family is a prominent family, so she doesn't have to be Xuan Ge'er...
