Farming and reading lady

Chapter 156 The truth is...

"Yes, yes, yes, go home first, go home first." The old man gave an order, and the team drove to the ancient house. The ancient house has been expanded again, and it is no problem to live in a hundred people. During this period, Gu Lieyu and Gu Liegong had already quietly reported some recent events to the ancestors. Although they were a branch of the branch, they were in the capital, and the ancestors had seen them all.

When they heard that the mother of the two little guys actually pretended to be sick in order to control the two children, they were very angry. But they were all old and shrewd people, and they did not show any anger on their faces.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Gu Xixian and his sister brought several ancestors directly into the Gu family's old house. When everyone sat down, Gu Laoye and his group realized that there were so many ancestors in their family. Even Gu Lieqi was stunned. He thought Uncle Ye was the most important person, but who knew that there were also great uncles and great-great uncles. Receiving the disgusting look from his father, he felt so innocent. No one had ever mentioned it to him, okay? In any case, the family knelt down and kowtowed to greet them.

"Hehe, I knew that everyone was as scared as I was, right?" Gu Xixian covered her mouth and laughed. She felt funny when she saw everyone looking like they were struck by lightning, especially her own grandfather. When he heard that there were great-uncles, his eyes widened bigger than copper bells. It was obvious that he couldn't believe that there were three huge mountains pressing down on his head, but he had to admit that he was younger.

Old man...

Everyone...

The little girl is just gloating over other people's misfortunes! But what can I do? I can't bear to hit her, and I can't bear to scold her. Forget it, just spoil her.

After a brief greeting, Gu Teng turned his gaze to Gu Lieqi: "Is your wife seriously ill? The kind that can't get out of bed?"

When Gu Teng asked this, the old man and his wife, the first wife, the second wife, and the younger generations all turned their eyes to Gu Lieqi. They were not suspicious, but showed genuine concern.

Gu Lieqi's enthusiasm for seeing his children was immediately dispelled. He knew what Du Xianniang meant, but what could he do? He still needed to hide what needed to be hidden: "It is a bit serious."

"Oh..." Gu Teng stretched out his tone: "Yan Qing, go and take a look at her."

As if remembering something, he explained to everyone in the Gu family: "Yan Qing comes from a family of great doctors. His medical skills may not be superb, but he has no problem treating simple illnesses."

Everyone in Da Ling knows what a family of great doctors represents. If they send anyone out at random, they can basically cure the disease with medicine. It is not as simple as simply treating a disease as Gu Teng said.

"San'er, quickly thank the ancestors." The old man was full of gratitude.

Gu Lieqi is filled with sadness, and Du Xianniang is just pretending to be sick. Any doctor can see that she is pretending, let alone someone from a family of great doctors. He can see through her at a glance, right?

Seeing him standing still, the old man was about to go forward and push him, but with a "bang", the table next to Gu Teng broke, scaring everyone. They looked at each other in horror, with a common question in their hearts: What happened? What happened?

Gu Lieqi knelt down with a plop. Seeing this, Gu Xixian and his sister also knelt down hurriedly. It was unreasonable for the father to kneel while the children stood aside and watched. In their hearts, they were secretly guessing what had happened to offend the ancestor.

Seeing Gu Xixian and his sister kneeling down, Gu Teng felt a little reluctant, but he resisted the urge to call out, and said to Gu Lieyu: "Yu boy, go and bring her to me."

Everyone here knew who this "she" was referring to. After a while, Du Xianniang was brought over by the collar. Her hair was neat and her face was ruddy, without a trace of illness. Everyone's heart was immediately beating fast.

Du Xianniang, who was originally dissatisfied with Gu Lieyu's actions, was panicked for a moment when she saw her husband and children kneeling on the ground, but she quickly calmed down.

"Are you Dushi?" Gu Teng's eyes were sharp. Eagle Guards, they were not born from a sea of ​​blood and corpses, but also experienced many battles. Not to mention Gu Teng's level of existence, they seemed kind and harmless, but as long as he wanted, even if he just sat there, his whole body would be full of awe, and he would have the momentum of a thousand-pound pressure. Du Xianniang was forced to kneel on the ground. She lowered her head in panic and said "yes".

"In the capital, you said that Hao Ge'er was disobedient and unfilial, and was used by someone with ulterior motives, so that his reputation for being unfilial spread throughout the capital, and became the topic of gossip and condemnation of him, causing him to almost miss the chance to be the top scholar. The emperor spoke out in person to clear Hao Ge'er's name because of Yu Xian's reputation as the immortal master, and because Hao Ge'er had real talent and knowledge, so that the top scholar fell into the Gu family. Today, you are selfish and want to use Hao Ge'er's marriage to attack him, and you want to accuse him of looking down on his ancestors. Du, do you really think that there is no one in my Gu family? You let you degrade my Gu family's descendants like this. Du, who dares you?"

Du Xianniang lowered her head, her face pale, but she still gritted her teeth and said angrily: "I gave birth to my own children, so what's wrong with scolding them? Whose parents don't beat and scold their children when they are disobedient? And, as Hao'er's mother, why can't I decide his marriage?"

"Oh, what kind of parents would scold their son by saying they would ruin his future? Why don't you go out and tell me, are the words you said, what a mother who loves her son would say? Yes, as Hao'er's biological mother, you should have a say in this important matter of marriage, but do you dare to tell us your real purpose in marrying him to the daughter of Zhen Wang? Du, don't let someone use you as a gun and kill your own son before you repent. You have to know that there is no medicine for regret in the world." Gu Teng suppressed the anger in his heart again and again before he could say these words that were more of comfort than scolding.

"Mom, what daughter of Mr. Wang?" Gu Xihao looked up and stared at his mother and asked.

Du Xianniang ignored him. Although she didn't know who Gu Teng was, his words made her panic. But she didn't believe that this new old man would know anything. Maybe he was just testing her? She calmed down and tried to stay calm: "I don't know who you are, and I don't understand what you mean."

Gu Teng was so angry that he laughed: "Good, very good. What a greedy fool who used her own son as a stepping stone. Since she has no shame, Yi'er, tell everyone the information you collected."

Gu Yi, who had been silent the whole time, waved his hand. His attendant Qiao Gao took out a small notebook and began to read: "On the third day after the examination, Du ran into Prince Yu on the street. Of course, this encounter was specially arranged by Prince Yu. After they introduced each other's families, Prince Yu learned that Du was Hao'er's biological mother. Prince Yu praised Du for her good parenting skills, and Du was proud. After a while, with Prince Yu's deliberate arrangements, she ran into Du several more times, and they had a great time talking each time."

At this point, everyone's eyes on Du Xianniang became a little strange. Qiao Gao paused and looked at Gu Yi. Gu Yi motioned him to continue, and he said, "Once, Prince Yu hinted that a woman as outstanding as Du should not stop at being the wife of a scholar, and it would be fine to be a noble lady. Du was tempted, but did not make a decision on the spot. A few days later, she met Prince Yu again, and Du asked if there was any way for her to move to a higher level. Prince Yu revealed that since the head of the family had the ability of a fairy master, it would be easy for her to fly to the top. This made Du more dissatisfied with the head of the family, and she was dissatisfied with him. Yu was still upset about the fact that the head of the Yu family gave the night-shining pearl to Tong Mingyan and his wife. She felt that the head of the family was a traitor and did not care about her mother. As for Hao Ge'er, it was indeed an unintentional act of hers, but it just happened to be used by Prince Yu again. After the list of the top scholars in the capital was released, Prince Yu sent someone to contact Du again. That was three days ago. The person told Du that if she wanted to be a superior person, she must hold her son in her hands. The best way to hold her son in her hands was to marry him a daughter-in-law who only listened to her, the mother-in-law. "
