Mrs. Fu's shoulders were slightly slumped, and her body seemed to sink into the middle of the sofa. She took the photo brought by the servant, and the first page she opened was the marriage certificate of Bai Hui and Fu Ting.
Like opening a storybook, she slowly unfolded the past events in detail.
"Didn't she look very good-looking when she was young?" She turned her head and smiled suddenly.
Gu Beisheng nodded. The girl in the photo was wearing a pure white wedding dress. Her face was clean, her lines were smooth, and her eyes were as gentle as water. When she smiled, it was as if the world was covered with a layer of white snow, making the world a little gentler.
The impressions of Fu Ting and Gu Beisheng when they were young seemed to have not changed much. Their eyes were sharp and there were endless things to deal with between their brows, which gave people a sense of oppression that could make people breathe hard even across time and space.
No wonder these two brothers feel more oppressive than the other. It turns out they all inherited it from their father.
And judging from the tone in which grandma asked this question, it shows that Bai Hui and Fu Ting also had a "good" time. Judging from grandma's open-minded character, she also had a time when she was particularly satisfied with her daughter-in-law.
Bai Hui's appearance is also very exquisite now, but when she was young, she was still really stunning to Gu Beisheng.
The most important thing is Bai Hui, who smiles beautifully in the photo, which is so touching.
"Well, I couldn't be happier when I married her, no less happy than when I brought you back from Xizhou..."
Mrs. Fu is telling the truth. After all, she only has one son and looks forward to seeing him get married soon.
The girl he marries home is well-educated and respects her elders. The most important thing is that she has Fu Ting in her heart and eyes.
She is the ideal daughter-in-law.
Gu Beisheng listened quietly. It must have been a wonderful time, so when grandma talked about it, the smile in her eyes was gentle and nostalgic.
"She manages the household well and knows how to take care of people. She gave birth to Qingyu not long after they got married. Both husband and wife loved their first child very much. As a mother, she loves her very much and the hard work she puts in amazes me."
Hearing this, the corners of Gu Beisheng's lips twitched slightly, and the question that came to his mind at that time was, what about the second child?
Has he ever received such love from his parents?
The answer is self-evident.
She didn't ask, suppressed her heartache for Fu Xizhou, and continued to listen.
"But before Xizhou was born, the couple had big problems. No, it should be said that they had emotional problems from the time they got married!
How can a husband go on a business trip abroad after just a few months of marriage and the novelty has not worn off? Even to me, since he married Bai Hui and entered the house, he has been hiding from home. He just refuses to stay at home, as if he is at home.
There are monsters that eat people.”
In this case, Fu Qingyu, who was already in poor health, had only his mother to take care of him, so he might not be mentally healthy.
Seeing his grandma pause, Gu Beisheng asked, "Did the marriage between dad and Bai Hui be arranged by the family, or was it their own will?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Fu sighed heavily, and at the same time she didn't understand: "That's the problem. If Ting'er is forced because of the family marriage, I can understand his resistance, but they are free.
In love, he brought Bai Hui home by himself."
She thought that the daughter-in-law she brought back should be like Xizhou. The two liked each other and were very affectionate.
Gu Beisheng nodded, vaguely feeling that the relationship between Bai Hui and Fu Ting was the problem that initially caused Fu Xizhou's mental illness.
Children who are immature need to be nurtured and cared for, and they will be extremely sensitive because of their lack of security.
If there is no strong core to support, then parents are the children’s greatest support.
The problem is that the two people who worked together to support each other had many problems before giving birth to Fu Xizhou, let alone giving him a good growing environment.
The more he understood these problems, the more irritable Gu Beisheng became. He unconsciously considered the problem completely from Fu Xizhou's perspective, losing his usual calmness and objectivity.
She no longer even wanted to hear about the emotional entanglements of the previous generation, but only wanted to know about Fu Xizhou.
"What was Dad's attitude when she took Xizhou away from the Fu family?"
At the mention of this, Mrs. Fu frowned and immediately felt a little angry, but she suppressed it and didn't show much to Gu Beisheng.
"Actually, when Bai Hui was pregnant with Xizhou, her purpose was not simple. She didn't want our Fu family to know that she wanted to give birth alone. Later, when Ting'er found out, she asked her if she wanted to be raised by Xizhou."
But at that time, after Bai Hui learned that Fu Qingyu was ill, his whole temperament changed drastically and he became unable to communicate.
Not only Fu Ting, but also Bai Hui ignored her words.
It seems like the whole world is against her, but she insists on having her own way, not even letting anyone interfere.
The Fu family began to feel that she treated Fu Qingyu very well. As a mother, she was also very responsible and caring, and she loved and educated her children well, so they did not forcefully take back their children at first.
It wasn't until later that I began to realize that something was wrong with Fu Xizhou. He was particularly misogynistic. When they first came into contact with him, even his grandma couldn't touch him.
Even after he was brought back, other treatments for Fu Qingyu's illness were found.
But it was too late. The Fu Xizhou he brought back became what others thought of as a freak child. No one could truly enter his inner world and never showed his emotions.
Gu Beisheng just wanted to find out what attitudes Fu Xizhou's parents had towards him, so that it would be easier for her to prescribe the right medicine.
After hearing so much, she figured it out a bit.
Or, Fu Qingyu also felt some fatherly love and motherly love, and didn't apologize much, because Fu Ting was away from home and his mother regarded him as the only one, which made it easier for him to have suffocating love.
Fu Xizhou doesn't need to think about it. He has never felt his father's love at all, and what his mother gave him only had abnormal meaning.
Mrs. Fu also felt her emotional changes, as if her whole body was exuding a qi, which was invisibly scorching.
"The Fu family owes Xizhou a lot. I also want to make it up to him in my lifetime and fulfill my responsibilities as a family. I know you want to cure his psychological problems. If you have anything to do, go to grandma directly. Don't be afraid of trouble."
Gu Beisheng's eyebrows were slightly lowered, and he looked at the sincerity in his grandma's eyes. The flames around his body subsided, and the corners of his lips moved slightly, revealing a smile: "Yes."
Although his parents didn't give Fu Xizhou enough love, his grandmother and brother seemed to care about him.
Realizing this, Gu Beisheng felt a little better.
Just as he was talking, there was suddenly the sound of rapid footsteps outside the door.
"Old madam, it's not good. There is a new servant at home. I have never seen the second young master. I accidentally bumped into him. The second young master locked himself in the study again!"
