Chapter 23: Brother
Chapter 23 Brother
Mrs. Gu Tai’s eyes wandered, not sure if Gu Yuan knew about it.
Gu Yuan took a few steps forward as if he had never heard of it, his burning eyes were always on Gu Yanfei, his feet seemed to be filled with lead, and he walked slower and slower.
When his mother Xie Shi passed away, Gu Yuan was only three years old. He vaguely remembered his mother’s face. As he grew older, the memory became more and more blurred. When he saw his sister at this moment, the beautiful and delicate face in front of him was exactly the same as that. The mother’s face in the dream overlapped.
His sister looks like his mother!
He used to always stick to his mother’s bulging belly and feel his sister’s fetal movement.
At that time, their family was very happy.
Gu Yuan stared at her without blinking, his eyes moist.
A throbbing from the bottom of his heart silently told him that she was the relative who was connected with his blood.
He calmed down and said, “I’m your brother, Gu Yuan.”
“Don’t worry, everything belongs to me.”
The boy’s voice was slow and hoarse, and the warmth, firmness and sincerity contained in his words overflowed.
“Big brother.” Gu Yanfei called softly, revealing her first smile of the day.
The tip of Gu Yuan’s nose was sore, and he controlled his emotions in a very short time, and turned to Mrs. Gu Tai, who was in the first place, and said, “Grandma, my sister has just returned and is tired. If there is nothing else, I will take her away first. already.”
Without waiting for Mrs. Gu Tai to answer, Gu Yuan took Gu Yanfei’s hand and left, completely ignoring the others.
“Brother Yuan!” Mrs. Gu Tai shouted from behind, trying to stop Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan just pretended not to hear it, let alone stopped.
“Big Brother.” Gu Yunchang called behind them, his voice a little low.
Gu Yuan still didn’t look back, but his footsteps stopped for a while, his hands clenched into fists.
He didn’t tell anyone, he made a trip to Huaibei by himself these few days.
At the beginning of the month, Gu Yuan quietly went back to the capital due to an errand, but inadvertently learned that Mrs. Tai had left Beijing to go to Danyang City to pick up the “Second Girl”.
This “Second Girl Gu” is not Gu Yuncong, but said to be the bead from the ocean of Gu’s family room, which was just retrieved from Huaibei by Mrs. Tai.
Gu Yuan felt that things were a little weird. After finishing the errand, he gritted his teeth and told Shangfeng to leave. He first went to Danyang City, but Danyang City closed the gate, so he had to rush to Huaibei.
After this investigation, he realized that his own sister was not Gu Yunchang!
His own younger sister was not only transferred by the vicious Su Niang, but also was scolded and abused by the family in Huaibei.
Gu Yuan traveled day and night, changing several horses in the middle, before finally rushing back to the capital. Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the house, he saw Mrs. Gu Tai ordered to do something to the younger sister who she just recognized!
Gu Yuan closed his eyes, his hands and feet were cold, he decisively pulled Gu Yanfei through the door curtain together.
The door curtain was raised and dropped, shaking in mid-air.
The room was silent, and the air was slightly oppressive.
Walking out of Cihetang, Gu Yuan let go of Gu Yanfei, he looked down at the little girl who was a head shorter than him, he had a thousand words to say, but he didn’t know where to start, his heart was filled with deep guilt.
Fourteen years ago, my mother gave birth to a younger sister during the war and died in childbirth.
He once swore to his mother’s tablet that he would take good care of his sister.
Later, Gu Yunmao was sent to the capital by Su Niang all the way to the capital. Mrs. Gu Tai took pity on her when she was young and lost, and raised her in Cihetang.
Gu Yuan wants to study and practice martial arts. In addition to setting the province in the morning and evening, there are not many opportunities to meet Gu Yunchang. However, over the years, Gu Yuan has been very interested in Gu Yunxiang, his sister, and thinks of her in everything. , everything is her priority.
I didn’t expect that he even got his sister wrong.
His real sister has suffered for fourteen years outside!
Thinking of what he had seen in Huaibei, Gu Yuan’s eyes were as dark as night.
“Sister,” Gu Yuan wanted to tell his sister that he would protect her in the future, and when the words came to his lips, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the little milk cat in her arms, so he changed his words abruptly, “…this is your parenting. s cat?”
“It’s called Qingguang.” Gu Yanfei casually touched the top of the cat’s head.
The milk cat heard his name and subconsciously wanted to open his eyes, but a plain hand blocked his eyes strongly.
In Gu Yuan’s eyes, this little gesture of hers turned into pity for the cat.
After deliberation, Gu Yuan said sternly: “Sister, grandmother doesn’t like cats. Whenever there is a cat in the Hou residence, grandmother will kill her.”
“I’m currently working in the Western Hills Camp. There’s a small village nearby who is my mother’s dowry. Why don’t you move there and live there?”
The reason why Gu Yuan proposed this was not only for the cat, but also because he knew that if his sister stayed in the Hou Mansion, life would be difficult.
The grandmother obviously has no grandfather-grandfather affection for her sister, and any disagreement is the family law. Those servants in the mansion are used to stepping down and holding up high, and in all likelihood they will embarrass the younger sister. There is no need for the younger sister to stay here to suffer grievances.
“…” Gu Yanfei stared at Gu Yuan in a daze, with a dazed expression.
In the past life, my eldest brother suggested this to her, but at that time she was too inferior and ignorant, thinking that her eldest brother, like Mrs. Tai, Mammy Xu and the others, looked down on her.
“Brother, I’m not leaving.” Gu Yanfei slightly bent his eyes, his black and white pupils seemed to be filled with a puddle of water, and his smile was as bright as Chunhua, “Don’t worry.”
In her last life, she never went to Zhuangzi.
In this life, she will not go, she will stay.
The milk cat in her arms called “Meow Meow” several times, which means that whoever dares to kill it, it is a spiritual beast, and all humans must worship it under its knees.
Gu Yuan’s eyelashes fluttered twice, hesitating a bit, but he didn’t force her after all.
After thinking about it, he changed another suggestion: “Then sister, you should live in Yuheng Garden. That is the yard where my mother lived when she was alive. It has been empty all these years, and you can live in it with a little tidying up.”
Yuheng Garden is on the north side of the Houfu’s inner courtyard. Although it has been empty for 14 years, it does not mean that it is abandoned. There are servants in the courtyard who are responsible for cleaning and tidying up, maintaining it as it was before.
Gu Yuansheng was afraid that his sister would refuse again, so nervous that his palms were sweaty.
Until she said “OK”, Gu Yuan grinned happily, and said impatiently, “I’ll take you there!”
“If you need anything in the future, just let someone tell me.”
“If I’m not here, tell my little servant Wutong.”
“After a while, I will try to transfer back to the capital!”
Gu Yuan kept talking non-stop, a little long-winded and a little clumsy.
Gu Yanfei listened quietly, smiling calmly.
Her eldest brother tried desperately to make up for her, and did everything he could to be nice to her, just like that time…
