Song Dynasty female artist

My name is Gu Qingxi.

My father died when I was very young and I don't have a deep impression of him.

I can only vaguely remember his appearance, nothing more.

After my father passed away, my mother's health deteriorated rapidly. I heard uncles, aunts and uncles in the village talking about how my mother became like this because she had a bad relationship with my father and was too sad.

My brother and I were young at the time and thought so too.

My mother's health was getting worse and worse. Someone in the village suggested finding a wife for her to marry to bring good luck. If nothing went wrong, her condition would improve.

My family still had some money at that time, and we spent a lot on my mother's medical treatment. My eldest brother, who had been in poor health, decided to find a wife to bring good luck, and almost spent all the family savings on this.

The bride came to the house, but the mother's condition did not improve.

Not only did it not get better, it got worse.

My sister is ignorant, but I have my own ideas. I am very dissatisfied with this "sister-in-law".

Not only did she not do any housework, but she also spoke very rudely and often cursed at home, either scolding my eldest brother for being poor and not giving her good food and clothes, or scolding me for not working and my sister for eating too much.

Obviously, she is the one who eats the best and most food at home.

Her eldest brother even gave her all the money in the family for safekeeping, so why should she be unsatisfied?

I don't have a good face to her and I don't call her sister-in-law.

One day, she suddenly fell into the lake. Although I didn't have any good feelings towards her, she had lived at home for several months after all. I was shocked to see her lying there half-dead. They asked me to call my eldest brother, so I ran as fast as I could. By the time I called my eldest brother back home, she had already been sent home and had changed her wet clothes.

It should be Widow Liu, who has a good relationship with our family.

There were also some medicines for dispelling wind and cold on the table. I didn’t know how to decoct the medicine at that time, so my eldest brother was the one who did it.

I had been running on the mountain road for so long during the day and was already exhausted. After the sun went down, I washed up and fell asleep.

I don’t know what my eldest brother and sister-in-law said afterwards.

But in the middle of the night, I had a nightmare. I dreamed that many geckos were chasing me and biting me. They bit off a piece of my finger and I woke up from the nightmare.

But my sister-in-law seemed like a different person. There was no contempt in her eyes, but she looked at me very calmly.

Ask me questions in my dreams.

I thought my sister-in-law was comforting me, but I didn't expect that there was a reason for my dream.

Because of this dream, we were prepared in advance, and those who wanted to harm us in secret did not succeed.

I have never seen my sister-in-law so powerful. She can see ghosts and catch monsters. It is easy for her to deal with flower monsters and those insane snakes.

In my eyes at that time, my sister-in-law was like a fairy descending from the sky.

Of course, after I started practicing, I realized how dangerous our situation was that night. If she hadn't protected me with her life, our whole family would have died long ago.

Since then, I have great respect for my sister-in-law. I feel that she is very different from before. Not only does she cook delicious food, but she also no longer speaks harshly to us as before.

She protected us.

Not long after, my sister-in-law taught me how to practice, and I was so happy that I couldn’t contain myself.

Being able to practice means that I can not only protect myself, but also my family.

However, during that period of time, my brother looked at me strangely. I always felt that there was a hint of envy and jealousy in his eyes.

Haha, I don’t care.

Afterwards, my eldest sister-in-law took me to Qingyu Sect, where the master valued me and accepted me as his disciple. That’s how I stayed in Qingyu Sect.

Qingyu Sect is the second-ranked sect for cultivation, and it has a lot of cultivation resources. Not only my master, but also my brother-in-law and even my uncle would give me guidance from time to time. I did not disappoint them and my cultivation level improved rapidly.

After I joined the sect, I cared less about family matters.

It was not until my eldest brother killed the murderer of my parents that I realized the torment he had endured over the years.

As a younger brother, I am really unqualified. I thought that I could protect my elder brother and sister through hard training, but in fact, it is still my elder brother who bears the blood feud of my parents.

He never placed this burden on me.

The Gu family in Jiangning Prefecture was wiped out, and our parents’ revenge was avenged, which resolved the knot in our hearts that had been knotting us for many years.

After returning to the sect that time, I broke through two levels in succession.

Have a deeper understanding of the path of cultivation.

Later, my master married my brother-in-law and gave birth to Manxin soon after. I was so happy that I took care of her all day long, as if she were my own sister.

Because her sister was favored by her cousin Xingcai and was accepted as a disciple, she has been in the Wuji Sect for many years.

I put my feelings for Ming Jie'er into Manxin.

Year after year, Manxin gradually grows up.

I don't know since when, my feelings towards her changed. I was no longer willing to be her brother. I wanted to take it a step further, but I was afraid that she only regarded me as her brother. This emotion tormented me day and night.

For a while, I even avoided Manxin.

I feel that if we separate for a period of time, perhaps this feeling will disappear.

But I didn't expect that the longer we didn't see each other, the more I missed you. I never want to experience that feeling of worry and loss again in my life.

After all, my feelings for Manxin could not be hidden from the eyes of my master and sister-in-law.

After they found out, they subtly created conditions for us to get along with each other. I'm not a child, so how could I not understand?

With their support, my relationship with Manxin has developed very smoothly.

Unexpectedly, an uninvited guest showed up halfway.

That senior brother confessed his feelings to me in front of me and simply ignored my existence.

hum~
What to pretend.

He had known about my feelings for Manxin for a long time, and he did it on purpose.

My first reaction was to punch him into a pig's head, but after going through so much, I still had to endure it.

I can't embarrass her in front of Manxin.

After Manxin left, before I could go and clean up, that guy actually issued a challenge to me.

Just what I wanted.

If I don’t beat him so hard that his parents can’t recognize him, I won’t be called Gu.

To be honest, that senior brother's cultivation is higher than mine, and we have sparred with each other before, but I really can't beat him.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so confident as to challenge me in front of me, and then issued a challenge, agreeing that the loser would leave.

But the power of love is so strong.

For Manxin, I would even give up my life, but he couldn't do that, so he lost.

After losing, he left the sect.

No one cared where he went. Only I knew that he was unwilling to lose to me and fell into the path of evil.

In the end, he died in my hands.

It was his paranoia that killed him.

I didn’t let Manxin know about this, and neither did Master and the others.

After Manxin and I got married, we had our own child. I became a father. The feeling of being a father cannot be described in words. In short, I suddenly felt that the burden on my shoulders was heavy. I not only had to protect Manxin, but also my child. I needed to become stronger. (End of this chapter)
