Chapter 507 Gu Meiqin's Purpose
Recently, the master's health has become worse and worse. She is worried that after the master leaves one day, those people will not be able to tolerate her and drive her away.
Originally, because of being cheated, she didn't plan to have any contact with her parents' family, but her current situation is different. If she didn't rely on her parents' family, how would she live her second half of her life?
That's why when she met Gu Yu and Jiang Qingshan on the street just now, she took the initiative to greet her.
Gu Yu and Jiang Qingshan saw Gu Meiqin indulging in their memories, and they did not bother her.
Gu Yu has a personality that is full of his own affairs. At this moment, his eyes were looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street.
Jiang Qingshan was very interested in observing Gu Meiqin. When she saw her angry, sad, and crazy about revenge, she had no happy expression.
Gumikoto came to her senses from her memories and looked at the two people opposite her. Seeing that they had no impatientness on their faces, she felt much more comfortable.
"Fifth sister-in-law, I haven't been back for many years. I don't know what's going on at home now? Is my father okay? My mother..." Seeing the indifference of fifth brother, Gu Meiqin had to look at Jiang Qingshan and ask.
After so many years of marriage, what she is most worried about is her mother. When her mother taught her with great care, she was impatient. After her mother went crazy, she was far away. Now that she is not doing well, she remembers her mother's goodness and realizes that her mother is not easy.
For the sake of their own children, which mother does not fight or rob?
Just like Gu Yu's aunt, what did she get in the end without fighting or robbing? The oppression of the mistress, the indifference of the man, and the incomprehension of the son.
Thinking about it now, although she sympathized with Gu Yu at the time, she didn't think her mother had done something wrong.
It is said that if people do not care for themselves, heaven will be punished by the earth.
"You haven't returned to Shanghe Village for several years. Our place is so good now. The villagers' lives are better. The old house is also very good. I haven't heard of any unpleasant things. As for your mother, I don't know. You know. We rarely go to the old house. Even if we go back, we can't see your mother."
The old houses were in chaos in the past, and no one welcomed them over, and they were too lazy to go over and take care of those people. Now it’s better. After several years of rural life, there are few intrigues from officials and families. However, everyone has their own little thoughts, and they don’t like to go there anymore, because they are afraid of being entangled.
Before, Gu Nan passed by and was plagued by the stars of the moon. He was quite happy about it, but now he seems to be tired of it.
"Is that so? Alas... I can't go back now, as a daughter, is too unfilial." Gu Meiqin picked up the handkerchief and wiped her tears as she said.
"Madam, don't be sad, everything will be fine." Xiang'er hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her wife.
It’s okay if she doesn’t comfort her, but the more she comforts Gumiqin’s tears are even more fierce.
What a big deal. When the old man turned his braids, it was time for her to be kicked out of the Lin Mansion.
She had to hurry up and take out some valuable things and hide them, otherwise her stepchildren would let her leave the house in vain.
"Why can't you go back? Is it because my brother-in-law is too reluctant to let you go back and doesn't allow you to go back?" She wanted to hear more.
"No." After Gumikoto thought it through, she wiped her tears clean.
"Xiang'er, go outside to guard the door. I have some personal words to talk to my brother and sister-in-law alone."
Although Xiang'er is quite loyal to her, she is a maid after all, so she should not let her know some things.
"Yes, madam."
Xiang'er immediately walked out of the private room and gently closed the door.
She only thought that the wife wanted to complain to her brother and sister-in-law about the unsatisfactory life now, and she felt that she was a maid here and felt that she had no face, so she gave her away.
"What do you want to say to us?" Jiang Qingshan asked after Xiang'er left the door.
Gumiko slowly stood up from the chair and then knelt down in the direction of the two of them.
"What are you trying to do?"
Jiang Qingshan was startled first, and then Zhiran. Gu Meiqin did this, afraid that something was wrong and wanted them to help, right?
So she was not in a hurry to help the person up, but just looked at the person kneeling on the ground with a serious expression.
"Fifth brother and fifth sister-in-law, I used to be ignorant and did a lot of mistakes, especially for you. I shouldn't call you by your name, nor should I cause trouble for you. At that time, I was instigated by someone with a few words, but I couldn't control my impulsive temper. I'm so sorry."
"So you invited us to a restaurant for dinner today to apologize to us?" Why did she feel that this person's purpose is impure?
"Uh..." Gumikoto got stuck, could she say it?
But when she thought about what she was about to face, she had to explain clearly with shamelessness. She finally had the opportunity to meet her mother's family and come to the city. She must seize this opportunity.
"I'm sorry, sister-in-law, I admit that the purpose of treating you to dinner today is not pure, but I have no choice. I used to resent my sister-in-law because of the cheating of marriage, and blame my father and brother for not caring about me and not wanting to go back. However, I want to go back now, but I can't leave."
Gu Meiqin felt scared when she thought of the group of step-sons who were eyeing her covetous steps.
"I was deceived by my sister-in-law to marry an old man older than my father. But after getting married, I could only accept my fate and live in the mansion. Fortunately, he is quite good to me, but he is old and his health is almost ineffective. I don't know when he will be gone. Several stepsons at home can't tolerate me. You see, my body should have been associated with it. They don't let me live well. Maybe when the master leaves, they will drive me out of the mansion."
She lowered her head and said bitterly.
"So, do you want us to help you?" Jiang Qingshan asked without any expression on her face.
If I had known this, why would I have to be like this? Gu Meiqin was rebuked by Yang. She was so lawless before and offended many people.
But now I know if it’s too late to come back and regret it?
"We don't have the ability to help you get justice." Even if there is, she doesn't want to help.
"No, fifth sister-in-law, you misunderstood me. I know the situation at home and will not make things difficult for you. I just thought, what if my master really can't do it one day and can't control me, can you or your father come to pick me up? I don't expect that I will be so depressed that I don't even have a home."
She doesn't expect her elder brother and sister-in-law.
"This is OK. When your brother-in-law is almost out of reach, you will find someone to deliver a letter to us. We will come to pick you up as soon as possible, but the premise is that my father agrees, and we will tell my father about your affairs when we go back."
After all, she is the same father's child as Gu Yu, so she kindly helps to convey the news.
"Thank you, my fifth sister-in-law." Gu Meiqin burst into tears and laughed. She quickly wiped the tears from her face with her handkerchief.
