Chapter 186: The fleeting dislike was still caught by Lu Ge'er
Gu Jiacheng's anticipation instantly turned into raging anger, his chest heaving violently and his teeth chattering.
"How dare she play tricks on me! She usually pretends to be a lady from a noble family, saying she'll marry me, but it turns out it was all fake!"
Master Gu San frowned even deeper when he saw his son like this.
"I want to marry the daughter of the Yang family," Gu Jiacheng raised his head suddenly, his eyes full of anger, "I want to find her and ask her clearly."
Master Gu San laughed in anger, "Do you think it's so easy to marry into the Yang family? You're just a bastard, with no achievements or outstanding abilities, yet you still want the Yang family's legitimate daughter to be your second wife? That's simply wishful thinking."
"You always look down on me like this."
"Then do something that I'll notice."
"If you could find me a job, would I have to work so hard myself?"
Gu Chen was so angry that his hands were shaking. He really wanted to slap this rebellious son to death, but when he raised his hand to mid-air, he put it down weakly.
He had beaten and scolded his son, but it had no effect.
"Okay, master, stop hitting me." Mrs. Gu San walked in, glanced at Gu Jiacheng, and a trace of imperceptible disgust flashed in her eyes.
"Someone from the Marquis of Anyang came and said that Concubine Chun from Jiacheng Courtyard was abusing Lu Ge'er and Lan Jie'er, and the two children came to the Crown Prince for help."
He actually used the word "abuse", such a strong word?
Gu Chen kicked Gu Jiacheng hard, "You're obsessed with women all day long, bringing all kinds of women back home. That's your legitimate son or daughter?"
Gu Jiacheng was also in disbelief. How dare that bitch?
"Master, I am also at fault for this matter. I was too careless and left my two children in the care of a vicious woman."
Mrs. Gu San lowered her head slightly. She knew in her heart that if she admitted her mistake now, she would avoid Gu Chen coming to his senses and blaming her.
"Master, it's not a good idea for Jiacheng to keep doing this. My cousin from my mother's side is the General of the Central Army of the Eastern Wei Camp. Why not send Jiacheng to serve under him and temper his temper?"
Gu Jiacheng didn't want to go to a place like a military camp at all. Before he could object, Gu Chen had already agreed.
"Ma'am, thank you for your trouble."
There was a hint of fatigue in his voice, and he also hoped that his son could suffer some hardships in the military camp and become more sensible.
"Master, it's too formal for you to say that. I have watched Jiacheng grow up since he was a child."
Madam Gu San appears to be a good wife and mother, but secretly she is thinking that a bastard's son is difficult to discipline and needs to be properly disciplined...
Gu Chen sighed softly, "Madam, I'll trouble you to accompany me for a while."
"yes."
In Hongmeng Courtyard, the spring sunshine casts mottled light and shadows.
Lan Jie'er had already woken up and was being fed by Haitang. The two children ate voraciously, obviously having not had a full meal for a long time.
The servant came to report, "Young Madam, the Third Master and the Third Madam are here, saying they are here to take the young master and young lady back home."
Chu Ruohan nodded and said, "Please come in."
He turned to look at the two children again, "Have you eaten?"
Lu Ge'er had already sat up straight, "Thank you, Aunt Shen, I'm full."
Chu Ruohan nodded slightly, then waved her hand, signaling the servants to take the food away.
She stood up, straightened her clothes, and prepared to greet him.
As soon as the Third Madam came in, she hugged Lan Jie'er in her arms and said, "Grandma's sweetheart, how did you get hurt like this?"
Chu Ruohan saw it and thought that the acting was really good!
She cried bitterly, her eyes red, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Too fake...
If he really loved them, he should have taken these two children to his own courtyard to take care of them after Wang died.
Now that something has happened, being so pretentious is just for show!
Master Gu San stood aside, looking at Lan Jie'er's bandaged hand, his brows twisted into the shape of the Chinese character "川".
He glanced at the scene in the room and his eyes fell on Lu Ge'er.
"Junze, niece-in-law, this time it's really thanks to you."
Master Gu San said in a low and hoarse voice, "It is our Gu family's poor discipline that has caused these two children to suffer so much."
"Uncle San, you're too kind." Gu Junze said.
The Third Madam hugged Lan Jie'er and wiped her tears, "It's all because of that Concubine Chun. She looked so honest and kind on weekdays, but I didn't expect her to be so vicious and cruel."
"When I get back, I will definitely punish her and give the children an explanation."
At this moment, Lu Ge'er suddenly stood up, walked to Master Gu San, and knelt down with a plop. "Grandfather, please don't send us back. We are scared."
His voice was tearful and his small body was shaking constantly.
Lan Jie'er also poked her head out from the Third Madam's arms and cried, "Grandma, we don't want to go back. Aunt Chun will beat us."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became solemn.
The guilt on Master Gu San's face became more and more obvious when he heard this.
He squatted down and wanted to touch Lu Ge'er's head, but stopped in mid-air, "Lu Ge'er, don't worry, no one will bully you with your grandfather here."
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the third master and his wife stood up and said goodbye.
Lu Ge'er pulled his grandfather's hand and said, "Grandfather, I have already taken Shadow Guard as my master."
When Master Gu San heard this, a hint of surprise flashed across his originally dim eyes.
He looked back at Gu Junze and saw him nod, and then a look of relief appeared on his face.
This is really a pleasant surprise.
He knew very well that Ying Qing was a martial arts expert. If Lu Ge'er could really learn from him, he would have more ability to gain a foothold in this world in the future.
"Since Shadow Guard is willing to accept you as his apprentice, it is your good fortune. You must study hard and respect your teacher in the future." Master Gu San warned earnestly.
Lu Ge'er responded obediently, "Grandson understands, and will definitely not let Grandfather down."
Master Gu San touched Lu Ge'er's head and said, "Grandfather will send a carriage to bring you here in the future."
After returning home, Aunt Chun knew that she had caused trouble and was kneeling in the courtyard to apologize.
When Lu Ge'er saw Aunt Chun kneeling on the ground, he hid behind the Third Master, but there was a coldness in his eyes that was inconsistent with his age.
The third master's face turned pale. "There's no need to keep this vicious woman. Sell her out!"
"Master and Madam... spare my life!"
Aunt Chun wanted to beg for mercy, but the servants covered her mouth and dragged her out like a dead dog.
The third master walked into the hall, sat down slowly, picked up the teacup that had already gone cold on the table, but put it down again and looked up at the third lady.
"Madam, Lu Ge'er is a man of ideas, and this child is good. You should take the two children to your courtyard and educate them well."
"yes."
But she was thinking in her heart that these two children were not her own grandchildren after all, and raising them by her side would always be a layer of distance between them.
However, she still maintained a dignified and virtuous appearance, "Master, don't worry, I will take good care of you."
But that fleeting look of disdain was still caught by Lu Ge'er in the corner...
