As they grew older, their mother no longer talked to them about boring truths. However, they were eating fast and chanting Buddha all day long and ignored others. They were gradually as hard to get close to as the cold moon in the sky.
Even he and his eldest sister, two biological children, could not come close to such a cold and indifferent mother.
Mrs. Yue served him a bowl of soup: "Forget it, drink the soup first and wait while you drink. Is your wound feeling better?"
Gu Wenyuan nodded: "Much better."
As soon as the question was answered, the room became quiet. Mrs. Yue was not a talkative person, she sat there like a Bodhisattva.
Gu Wenyuan was a little embarrassed. After drinking the soup, he sat there. The atmosphere was so silent that he could not sit still.
After a quarter of an hour, Mrs. Yue finally glanced at him: "You are about to become a father, and you are still injured, and you are still so unstable?"
Gu Wenyuan frowned slightly, his mother was still used to lecturing others.
But after hesitating for a moment, he finally told the truth: "Mother, I just received the news that my wife was pushed in the mansion in Heiliao City, and the child in her belly is gone."
Mrs. Yue was stunned and couldn't help but frown: "The child is gone, it's already eight months... This is very harmful to the body."
Gu Wenyuan didn't take it seriously: "If it's gone, it's gone. That woman is a waste who can't even protect her own child. I can't protect my son. Why doesn't she die? If her body is broken and she can't give birth, I will
Just divorce her and find another woman."
As he spoke, he patted the back of Mrs. Yue's hand with relief: "Don't be sad, mother. Women are useless if they can't carry on the family line. Your son will always let you have your grandson soon."
Parents always want them to carry on the family line as soon as possible.
Madam Yue suddenly looked at him quietly, her cold and penetrating gaze made Gu Wenyuan a little scared.
"Mom...what's wrong with you?" Gu Wenyuan asked tentatively.
Mrs. Yue lowered her eyes, plucked the rosary beads in her hand, and said expressionlessly: "Forget it, the child is gone, maybe it's a good thing."
Gu Wenyuan was stunned. He always felt that his mother's attitude was strangely indifferent. She was still caring about him and the child just now.
He was a little puzzled. Doesn't mother want to have her grandson soon?
At this time, footsteps suddenly came from outside the door. As soon as the maid guarding the door opened the curtain, a tall figure appeared outside the door, laughing and saying——
"Yue Niang really cooked the food herself today. It's a blessing for my husband!" Master Gu walked in wearing armor and holding a knife. He looked like he had just come down from the city.
Mrs. Yue said calmly: "Here you go, sit down."
Mr. Gu looked at Mrs. Yue and said with a smile: "Why is Madam so happy today?"
Although he had many beautiful concubines, the only wife he really cared about was Mrs. Yue. However, Mrs. Yue was too cold and indifferent, so he could rarely stay with her.
Mrs. Yue was silent for a while, her eyes fell on his armor, and she was in a trance for a moment: "Twenty years later, when war breaks out again, just think... I am remembering the past."
Master Gu just thought she was worried about him, so he took the soup she served and laughed and said: "Don't worry, your husband, I am still a swordsman. How I used to dominate the battlefield back then, I can now defeat King Qin's brat!"
Mrs. Yue didn't say anything, she just glanced outside the door: "Where is Bijun?"
Mr. Gu frowned: "That damn girl, she has to be an hour late. She said she found some spies and she wants to arrest them urgently."
Mrs. Yue sighed softly, seeming a little helpless and melancholy: "Then... forget it, it's fate. It's not easy for a girl in this world. It's hard to leave her alone."
Both Gu Da and Gu Er were a little disapproving. Gu Bijun was already one of the most wanton and indulgent women in the world.
However, Mrs. Yue seemed a lot softer today, and they did not try to spoil her mood. It was not easy for the family to have a peaceful meal.
But Ming Lanruo, who was hiding in the secret room, always felt that Mrs. Yue's words were strange. Why did it sound like... her last words.
She glanced at Qiao Yan and saw him shaking his head slightly towards her, indicating that she would watch slowly.
Not long after, the Gu family had almost finished their meal. Gu Er wiped his mouth and was about to leave with Mrs. Yue, but unexpectedly his body suddenly swayed and he fell down from the wheelchair.
Master Gu was shocked and turned to help his son: "Wen Yuan, what's wrong with you? The wound happened again?"
But as soon as he moved, he suddenly fell down and hit the table.
Many plates fell to the ground with a clang and were smashed to pieces.
The maids and guards serving in the room were shocked. This chapter has been completed!
