The woman is wearing a lavender dress, has long eyebrows like willows, a small cherry mouth, fair skin and beautiful appearance. She looks like a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.
This woman looks very similar to Xiao Heng's dead childhood sweetheart.
Not to mention they are exactly the same, but their eyebrows and eyes are very similar, and they look like a pair of sisters.
Mrs. Xiao looked at the woman in surprise, "You are..."
"Aunt, I am Qingyan!" Gu Qingyan's eyes turned red, and she knelt down and said, "My sister is Gu Qingwan. My father disappeared three months ago. I had no choice but to come to the capital to find my cousin."
"I met my cousin as soon as I arrived at the gate of the capital, and that's why I came to the Xiao family with him."
I didn't expect that she was her sister's daughter, so she was considered her niece.
Gu Qingyan lowered her head and did not dare to speak, because at first Gu Qingwan and Xiao Heng were in love and were going to get married, but Xiao Heng was later attracted by the eldest princess and wanted to become the consort.
Gu Qingwan was already ill, but after learning the news that they were getting married, he could not bear the shock and passed away not long after his illness worsened.
Later, misfortunes never come singly. Not long after, his father made a mistake and was demoted from his post. From then on, the Gu family fell into poverty and the family had no choice but to move out of the capital.
Because of Gu Qingwan's death, the Gu family felt that it was all the Xiao family's fault, and they stopped communicating with the Xiao family.
After the Gu family fell into decline, their father fell ill after they moved out of the capital and returned to their hometown, and now he even disappears.
Gu's eldest son is still young and his mother is sick. Now she is the only one who can support the Gu family.
Back then, Gu Qingwan and Xiao Heng were together. When they were originally in love and wanted to get married, they were opposed by Mrs. Xiao. She didn't like Gu Qingwan and didn't agree with her son to marry her.
This led to the fact that the eldest princess fell in love with Xiao Heng and asked him to be her consort.
It was hard to disobey the emperor's order, so Xiao Heng had to marry the eldest princess.
But he also lost his beloved because of it.
Xiao Heng resented his mother in his heart, so he didn't let Gu Qingyan see her. He was afraid that Madam Xiao would see Gu Qingyan, have objections to her and kick her out of the Xiao family.
Now that the Gu family is in dire straits and Gu's father is in trouble, thinking of his former lover, he plans to send someone to find Gu Qingyan's father.
Then settle them into the Gu family well.
Mrs. Xiao couldn't help but sigh when she thought about what happened back then, "I thought Heng'er brought back some kind of woman..."
She knew that she had a great responsibility for Gu Qingwan's death.
But at that time she had no choice.
Gu Qingyan's eyes were slightly red, and she understood in her heart what Mrs. Xiao was worried about, "Aunt, I have already married her, and my cousin knows it, so you don't have to worry, my cousin won't do anything stupid."
"I will leave when I find my father's whereabouts."
Mrs. Xiao still had a headache, "Okay, then you can stay in the Hou Mansion first."
Gu Qingyan nodded, "Well, thank you, aunt."
After doing this for a long time, it was just a false alarm.
Feng Mingwei glanced at the little girl and asked, "Why did your father disappear? Has anyone reported it to the police, or is there anything unusual?"
"I reported it to the government after my father disappeared, but there was no news from the local government. I had no choice but to come to the capital." Gu Qingyan thought about it carefully, "My father has been ill in the past few years and is not very clear-headed."
My brain is not very clear. Could it be Alzheimer's disease?
"How old is your father?"
Gu Qingyan was a little puzzled.
Mrs. Xiao explained: "This is Princess Lie. She has excellent medical skills and may be able to cure your father's illness."
Gu Qingyan's eyes lit up. Even if she was not in the capital, she had heard that Princess Lie was a miracle doctor.
She suddenly said excitedly: "Are you really Princess Lie? Can you help me cure my father's disease?"
Feng Mingwei said: "You can't know this until you see the patient first. You first tell me about your father's condition."
"My father is forty-two years old this year. Due to an accident three years ago, he couldn't bear the blow and fell ill." Gu Qingyan said hurriedly.
Feng Jian frowned, "Your father was Gu Yan, the then Minister of War, right?"
Gu Qingyan nodded, "Yes, my father worked as a minister in the Ministry of War."
In total, not long after the Feng family was confiscated and exiled, something happened to the Gu family.
