Chapter 29: The Prodigal Son Returns

Chapter 29: The Prodigal Son Returns

"Pregnant? When did it happen?"

Two people in the room were still talking.

"It was just confirmed last night. It's only been a month."

"That's great. You can spread the word that the child is Gu Zixuan's."

"But... Gu Zixuan has never even touched my hand..."

"Then let's think of a way. Isn't the annual poetry gathering at Baihua Tower about to begin? Let's take advantage of that night..."

The two of them were whispering to each other and actually wanted to make Gu Zixuan's cuckold real.

I have to say that the villain is a villain. Look at these tricks, they are really vicious.

After everyone in the room had left, Su Jin pulled Gu Zixuan, who had lost his soul, back to the room.

Gu Zixuan is very upset now.

He gave all his heart and even ran away from home for Mu Yanluo and made enemies with the entire Yong'an Marquis Mansion, but what about Mu Yanluo?

Haha, it’s fake, it turns out they are all fake!

He thought that someone finally liked him and that someone finally appreciated his cynicism, but he didn't know that everything was fake.

It turned out that everything was arranged by Gu Ziyun, and everything was just as the fifth brother said. The Yong'an Marquis Mansion belonged to Mu Yanluo, and Gu Ziyun, a concubine's son, also wanted to seize it!

Gu Zixuan finally figured out everything and suddenly felt extremely depressed, to the point where he couldn't even muster up any energy.

Su Jin got angry when she saw her son looking distracted. Such a good young man was made like this by a bad woman. He didn't look like a man at all.

Thinking of the end, Su Jin couldn't help but give his son a slap in the face.

"If you are a man, you should do what you are supposed to do. The way you are now will only make people look down on you."

After saying that, Su Jin turned around and left, leaving Gu Zixuan covering his red and swollen cheek, and after a long while he finally clenched his teeth.

His mother was right. If he was a man, he should do what he should do!

He will not let go of either Mu Yanluo or Gu Ziyun.

But now, there is one more important thing to do.

Gu Zixuan closed his eyes, turned around and followed Su Jin away.

After returning to the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, Gu Zixuan did nothing. Instead, he went back to his room alone, closed the doors and windows, and did not even leave a servant to serve him.

The servants and maids were a little worried about this and even came to Su Jin, but Su Jin's reaction was no reaction.

He is sixteen years old and can be a father in this era. His mind should have matured long ago. I hope this incident can help Gu Zixuan make some progress.

After sending away the servants in Gu Zixuan's yard, Su Jin asked people to pack up.

An Xiaoniang has already finished her confinement, and they should move back to Liuting Pavilion early tomorrow morning.

Seeing people packing up here, An Xiaoniang came over with the baby in her arms, and then knelt down in front of Su Jin.

"Madam, this child has no name since he was born. Please give him a name."

No name yet?

Su Jin was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that except for the day when the baby was born, Gu Changqing had not come here again for a month. Then she thought again, it might be because she was at An Xiaoniang's place, and Gu Changqing didn't come out of spite. But if he didn't come, it doesn't mean he wouldn't even give the child a name, it's been a month already.

Su Jin got angry for no reason. She just felt that some husbands were really irresponsible.

But, fortunately, the original body's love brain has gone away with the original body, and she is now very sober.

She looked down at the baby in the cradle. It had grown up after a month and was no longer a wrinkled red monkey-like thing. Su Jin smiled at the well-behaved little thing.

"Your husband has to choose the name for you. I will give him a nickname, Mu. I hope you and your son will live in harmony."

An Xiaoniang immediately kowtowed to her and thanked her profusely: "My brother Mu and I would like to thank you very much, Madam!"

After helping the man up and chatting for a few more minutes, Su Jin went back to his room to sleep.

The days of eating and drinking for free this month are finally over. Starting tomorrow, I will go back to Liuting Pavilion, and then I can close the door and enjoy the life of lying down alone.

Su Jin decided to go to the warehouse first to take a good inventory of her dowry to see how much money she had left and how much money her shop could earn. That way she could figure out whether she should spend her money while standing or lying down.

Ha, it makes me happy just thinking about it.

Su Jin slept soundly and woke up at dawn.

After daybreak, Jin Chuan asked people to move things. Lin Wanhui no longer had the right to manage the yard, and recently she had been staying in the yard obediently and had not come out. Su Jin did not care about her and continued to do what she was doing.

At this moment, Gu Zixuan, who was awakened by her slap, appeared outside Liuting Pavilion.

Early in the morning, everyone was busy in the yard. Gu Zixuan lifted his robe and knelt in the corridor.

Yuchuan saw it and told Su Jin: "Madam, Xuan Ge'er is here and kneeling in the corridor."

Su Jin smiled and said, "Has he learned his lesson this time? He knows how to kneel down to threaten others. Actually, he doesn't have to kneel down. I will let him run away from home..."

"Mother!"

Gu Zixuan's words outside interrupted Su Jin.

Gu Zixuan said in a deep voice: "Mother, I want to study hard. Your family is a big family in Hexi. I would like you to find me a strict teacher."

Everyone in the room was stunned, even Su Jin found it unbelievable.

How did this rebellious son improve so quickly? He even threatened to run away from home a while ago, because Mu Yanluo didn't want him.

In fact, it was Gu Zixuan himself who figured it out.

The child was emotionally hurt yesterday and was slapped by Su Jin. He didn't sleep all night and was thinking about it all night.

He wondered why he was deceived by Gu Ziyun, why there were so many young girls in the yard but his mother only bullied Lin Wanhui, and he thought about the insults his fiancée Chen Xinlian said to him, and the fact that she would rather marry Gu Ziyun than him.

After thinking it over, Gu Zixuan came to the conclusion that he had to study hard.

Otherwise, anyone could deceive him, and he would be foolishly fooled by others.

"Please help me, mother!"

Gu Zixuan knocked his head, and it hit the stone slab with a bang.

Everyone in the room was startled, and Su Jin quickly helped the man up.

"My son, do whatever you want. Go ahead."

After hearing Su Jin's words, Gu Zixuan finally smiled and turned to go to school.

"Madam, Brother Xuan has finally made progress!"

Yuchuan's eyes turned red from watching this.

Who could have thought that a month ago, this playboy would run away from home to marry a prostitute from a brothel!

Now he has turned over a new leaf and is working hard to make progress.

It’s really touching!

Although Yuchuan is young, she is concerned about her old mother.

Su Jin didn’t think too much about whether she was touched or not. She just thought that she could finally have some free time.

So she grabbed Yuchuan's hand and said with a smile, "Go, bring me my dowry list, I need to check it out."

Let’s see how long it will take.
