202, Gu Shangshu's Wrath
Have nothing to fear!
Yes, it is fearless!
Whether it's Second Aunt Pei Yurui, or her daughter Gu Qianrou, including Gu Qianxue herself, they all have to admit that everyone has nothing to fear.
And the root cause, isn't it because Gu Shangshu and Zheng Shi bullied the weak and feared the hard, stepping on the low and climbing high
Gu Shangshu sighed for a long time, and looked at Gu Qianxue, "Qianxue, maybe you were right that day, but now I really admit that no matter how high I am, Gu Qingze, I will never be able to integrate into the circle of powerful people. I have no position and no principles , now even my own daughter looks down on me."
Gu Qianxue was stunned, what did she say? What did she say? After thinking about it carefully, it suddenly dawned on her. She still remembered that when she first traveled through time, one day she went out of the city with Zhou Rongqiu, but when she came back late, she was caught in the dark and eloped by Gu Qianrou's personal maid, Cui Er, a rascal and a wild man.
It was during the "Three Trials", she openly accused Gu Shangshu of having no position, no principles, and never being able to integrate into the circle of nobles.
Yes, yes, that's it.
She herself had forgotten all about it long ago, but she did not expect that Gu Shangshu still remembered. It turned out that she casually arranged words to attack Gu Shangshu, but he remembered them firmly.
"Unexpectedly, I, Gu Qingze, have lived for more than forty years, but no fourteen-year-old child can think clearly." Gu Shangshu smiled wryly, his voice extremely depressed, "It's sad, it's really sad!"
Gu Qianxue subconsciously wanted to comfort her, but on second thought, Gu Shangshu really had nothing to comfort her. A big man, looking forward and backward for the sake of his future, he can't even control his own family.
"Gu Qianrou, look up at me." Gu Shangshu's voice was low, with unprecedented calmness and grief, "I ask you, in your heart, are you the Gu family or the Pei family?"
Gu Qianrou was startled, and swallowed with difficulty, "Father...Father...I, of course, is the Gu family."
"Really?" Gu Shangshu sneered, "No, in your heart, you are the Pei family. You have never looked down on me as a father, and this family. This is just your stepping stone. Even if you cling to wealth one day, in your In my heart, your backer is also the Pei family, not the Gu family."
Gu Shangshu's tone was affirmative, not a question.
The room was dead silent.
Not to mention Gu Qianrou, even Gu Qianxue didn't dare to take a breath for a moment.
This is the majesty of the head of the family! This is the attitude that the head of the family should have when he is responsible for his children!
In the past, Gu Qianxue always felt like she was playing a house during the three-room trial, but this time, she felt the pressure from her parents.
"I want to ask you one last time, if you still think of me as your father." Gu Shangshu's voice was very slow, word by word, but as firm as Mount Tai, "Mr. Wang, did you hit me?"
Gu Qianrou gritted her silver teeth, made up her mind, and raised her head arrogantly. "No, even if father asks 10,000 times, that lowly maidservant of Aunt Wang is provoked, otherwise, let them find witnesses to prove it."
"Snapped!"
With a slap in the face, Gu Shangshu slapped Gu Qianrou on the face, knocking him to the ground.
"Ah..." There was a scream, but it was not Gu Qianrou, but Aunt Pei who ran in from outside.
Aunt Pei rushed over, pushed Gu Shangshu away, and hugged the stunned Gu Qianrou in her arms, "Rou'er, Rou'er, Rou'er, are you okay?"
It took a long time for Gu Qianrou to recover, and burst into tears, lying in Aunt Pei's arms and weeping loudly, calling Aunt Wang a slut, a slut, and so on.
On Aunt Pei's body, it was Mrs. Zheng who followed closely.
Mrs. Zheng was old and couldn't walk fast. She was out of breath and her complexion was sallow.
"Help grandma sit down quickly." Gu Qianxue ordered the maids to serve Zheng Shi, but she continued to watch with a feeling of watching a good show in her heart.
She wanted to know to what extent Gu Shangshu could go into a fit, and Pei's family was hard to dismiss.
"My lord, you are crazy. Rou'er is your own daughter, the one who grew up in your hands, and you just hit Rou'er without asking why!" Aunt Pei hugged Gu Qianrou and accused her loudly.
Gu Shangshu snorted coldly, "I hit her because she is my own daughter. If it's an outsider, do you think I'll take care of it?" Then he said to his side, "Come here, go get the family law!"
"What are you doing with the family law? What's wrong with Rou'er?" Aunt Pei jumped up from the ground, as crazy as a hen guarding her chicks.
Gu Shangshu didn't fly into a rage, but with a gloomy face, he pointed at Gu Qianrou with a sneer, "It's the good daughter you educated, who obviously beat Mrs. Wang, and refused to admit it under the circumstances that there were all witnesses and evidence. That's Auntie, it's her mother's generation, she beats up whenever she says, is there any rules in this family?"
Zheng Shi also glared at Gu Qianrou with a gloomy expression.
Gu Qianrou was really scared. She shrank herself behind Aunt Pei, and she regretted it. If she had a choice, she should admit it early... no, she would be beaten if she admitted it, and she would be looked down upon by her servants. Can't admit it!
Until now, Gu Qianrou thought that with his grandfather, Prime Minister Pei, as his backer, this matter would eventually come to nothing, just like so many things in the past.
Thinking about it, the timidity on Gu Qianrou's face became much less.
Gu Qianrou's every move, including facial changes, completely fell into the eyes of Gu Shangshu and Zheng Shi, who had complicated emotions.
Aunt Pei lowered her voice, "My lord, there must be a misunderstanding." Aunt Pei was serious, she judged the situation, and then said to Aunt Wang, "Mr. Wang, who beat you at that time?" The voice is also trembling.
Aunt Wang just bowed her head and cried, refusing to speak.
Aunt Pei said again, "It's these lowly maidservants who beat you, but Rou'er is not there, right?"
Gu Qianrou lowered her head and smiled, she knew that mother would always have a way. All the aunts knew that his father didn't dare to do anything to him. If he didn't look at the monk's face or the Buddha's face, if he beat their mother and daughter, grandpa would not let him go.
Gu Shangshu looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, then grabbed Aunt Pei by the neckline and dragged her fiercely in front of him, "This is the good daughter you have taught, do you really think she does stupid things without anyone noticing? Don't talk about the troubles in the backyard, just say yes to Qianxue!"
Gu Shangshu pointed at Gu Qianrou, snorted fiercely, and continued, "Why did Qianxue push the king into the water? Why did someone come up to me just after Qianxue and Doctor Zhou came out of Beijing, saying that Qianxue and the wild man ran away? There are unbearable rumors about Qianxue and Li Wang? Do you really think that I don’t know anything? Do you really think that you women are making trouble in the backyard, and we men don’t understand? No, we just read a couple’s love and go to the end.”
After finishing speaking, Gu Shangshu loosened Aunt Pei's collar, pushed hard, and threw Aunt Pei on the ground, screaming.
