Chapter 322 Please accept, we are good to you
. The fire was so big that Duke Zhou didn't think anyone could survive.
But Yu Tingwan survived.
He didn't die once, and he didn't die twice. The secret guard committed heinous crimes, and the Gu family was torn apart by him.
Gu Fuju treated him well.
In addition, the secret guard's wife was pregnant with two babies, and she went to the temple to ask for divination, but the divination was bad, and the babies born were all dead.
People in this world believe in gods and Buddhas the most.
The villain hesitated for a while and didn't do anything to Yu Tingwan again.
But he was afraid that the girl would do something bad.
Others only knew that the constables of Ze County found the Hu family, the natal family of Yu's mother, Hu Yu Niang, for the orphan of the Yu family.
But Yu Niang never mentioned to outsiders that she had a natal family.
There has been no contact in these years.
The constable was able to find people so quickly because of the secret guidance of this secret guard.
Hu Dazhu also took money from it, so Yu Tingwan never had the opportunity to leave Xilin Village.
Even when she went to the town to buy things during festivals or to the temple fairs, she never traveled far. It was not
until Gu Fuju pointed out at the palace banquet that Yu Tingwan was the daughter of the Gu family that the secret guards lost their composure.
Gu Fuju did not mention that the secret guard had been killed by him personally. The bloody head was sent to the study of Duke Zhou.
He only said,
"I have been looking for you for many years without success. You are missing because of the power of Duke Zhou. I couldn't find out how you went to the Yu family. When I could find out, there was an internal thief who used my power to wipe out everything, and the truth about the fire in the Yu family was hidden. They were all on guard against me."
The latter sentence was said with great difficulty.
"Beware of me and find you."
The study is on the north side of the academy. Usually when Gu Fuju is not there, there are very few students passing by.
In the past, when the Grand Tutor came over, students would come to discuss knowledge.
But they didn't.
The fact that the young lady of the Shunguogong Mansion is the daughter of the Gu family was known to the whole of Shangjing.
Just now, the Grand Tutor brought a bright and beautiful girl here. Have the students of Huaqing Academy already guessed her identity? They would not come here rashly.
Gu Fuju explained the whole story.
Then he continued.
"Awu didn't have a name at first. She was called by a nickname and didn't have a birthday."
He was selfish and didn't want to give the name of his own flesh and blood. It seemed that if he gave it, his Qingying would never come back.
But it was not easy to give another name, for fear that Jiashan would find something wrong.
Therefore, he bribed the Taoist priest to say that the child was not blessed enough and had many setbacks since birth. It is said that untouchables are easy to raise, but they are afraid that they can't suppress it.
"Your mother's health is gradually getting better, but I dare not stimulate her. I have been hesitating whether to mention it to her."
Gu Fuju looked into Yu Tingwan's clear eyes.
"I dare not."
"I can't afford to gamble."
Yu Tingwan didn't blame him.
The girl pursed her lips and said, "You are a good husband."
"But I am not a good father."
Gu Fuju: "I claim to be smart, but I was fooled by the secret guards around me."
"I plotted against Duke Zhou, but he also plotted against me."
"The Yu couple are the benefactors of the Gu family. They love you with all their heart. I am ashamed of myself."
"Although I don't want to admit it, I am also grateful to Wei Zhao for sending you back to us."
Gu Fuju, who is knowledgeable, is best at using rhetoric, but he uses the most straightforward words to express his true feelings.
He continued to speak slowly.
"Your grandmother worked hard when she was young, and she had more problems as she got older."
Making tofu doesn't actually make much money.
You have to get up before dawn to grind tofu, and then carry it to the town to sell it after it is done. It is all physical work.
"Even though I became successful, she didn't enjoy her happiness for many years. She passed away when you were three years old."
Gu Wu was also three years old at that time.
When Mrs. Gu was dying, she only let him talk.
She said a lot.
["Juzi, your grandfather was a scholar, and your mother didn't have to worry about food and clothing, but he died early, and my mother remarried. My uncle occupied the family's land and house and sold me to a matchmaker. It was your father who bought it, so your mother lived with him. Mother... also studied for a few years. She knew that only by studying can you succeed, otherwise your ancestors would only be able to pick up hoes and farm one acre and three mu of land."]
["But your father disagreed and laughed at my wild imagination."]
["Your father also died early, but your mother was reluctant to leave you, and she gritted her teeth to raise you to adulthood. Now you are so successful. It shows that your mother was right, and the Gu family's ancestral graves are also smoking."]
["Juzi, you are an official, you have to be a good official. The lives of ordinary people are hard, and only when the superiors sympathize with them can they live a good life."]
【“Jiashan is a very good daughter-in-law. She never despises me as her mother-in-law and treats me as half her own mother. You must treat her well. Your father-in-law doesn’t despise us and is willing to marry his daughter to a lower class. Now that you have made it, you must respect him.”】
【“And…”】
【“I raised you. How can I not see that you are worried about me? You are suffering.”】
【“Then…call the child Awu.”】
Madam Gu’s voice became softer and softer.
She wanted to catch something, but she couldn’t catch anything.
【“Mother can’t wait…”】
What can’t she wait for? Can’t she wait for the day when the bloodline of the Gu family is found?
Gu Fuju said: “Awu’s name was given by your grandmother.”
“She has always been thinking about you.”
Yu Tingwan was slightly stunned.
Charming.
Female, none.
"Another year passed. By then, your mother was no different from a normal person and rarely got sick. I returned from Ze County without informing her in advance and did not ask the servants to pass on the message."
"Before I even entered the room, I heard her bending over and talking to Awu. One copy is for Awu, and the other is for your sister."
Awu asked, where is your sister?
Jiashan said.
["Your sister will come back."]
["Your father has been looking for her. He is so dedicated, he will definitely find her."]
["But Awu, don't ask. He will be sad if he hasn't found her yet."]
Gu Fuju: "I realized it only later. No wonder when I first brought Awu back, your mother sometimes resisted extremely and sometimes held her in her arms and refused to let go."
But at that time, Gu Fuju just thought that Jiashan was mentally ill.
"When she was confused, she mistook Awu for you, but when she was sober, she could see that it was a full-term baby, not the child she gave birth to with all her might."
"Since then, Awu has had a birthday. It was three quarters after the hour of Hai when I picked her up, so I used the lame Taoist words again. Her birthday was successfully set on the third day after your birthday."
"I took her to see this family tree."
"Your mother goes to Changdu Temple to pray for you every year."
"But as the years passed, there was still no news from you. Your mother hated Ze County more and more and didn't want to hear anyone mention it, and she didn't want to hear about it." "
Neither your mother nor I mentioned it specifically in front of each other, but we both knew the fact that you didn't come back."
"Your mother was afraid that I would worry about her illness recurring, so she pretended not to know."
"I accept your mother's consideration for me and cooperate with her."
"Every time I go out, even if I don't say I'm going to Ze County, she knows it in her heart. Because I have to go out all year round, she sometimes gets angry and scolds me for not coming home. But I know that she says one thing and means another, and she has been eagerly waiting for the day when I can bring my daughter home."
"As for Awu, firstly, we have raised her for many years, and we are not plants or trees, so how can we be heartless? Secondly, we are selfish as parents, hoping to bring more blessings to our Qingying. May God bless her, and she must be taken away by kind people like Awu, and treated better."
"She must live, and live well."
Gu Fuju said so much.
He just wanted to tell Yu Tingwan.
"Yaoyao, you have always been in our thoughts, and have never been replaced by anyone."
"We won't force you to recognize us, but please accept our kindness to you."
