Tripod wedding

Chapter 145 Gu Fu's past ([-])
Xu Qingru didn't answer Fu Tianze's words, she raised her eyes slightly, staring at another villa not far away in a daze.

It was the main villa of the Gu family's old house, with a somewhat creepy silhouette outlined in the middle of the night. All the lights in the villa had been extinguished, except for a room on the west side that was still lit, which was very bright.

Xu Qingru trembled her eyelashes, and said softly, "Is that room with lights on, the room of Grandpa Gu? He still doesn't rest so late..."

Fu Tianze followed her gaze, thought for a while, and said, "No, no one lives in that room."

She was a little startled, and turned her head to look at Fu Tianze: "No one lives there? Then why are the lights on?"

Why is this approach a little scary?

"Are you scared?" Fu Tianze freed up one hand, lightly scratched the tip of her nose, hugged her tightly in his arms, and whispered: "When I finish telling this story, you won't be afraid anymore."

"what story?"

"Do you remember the saying 'Nanhuaiyin, Beiyunshen'?"

"Remember, it was mentioned in the notes of the Fu family that the reason why the northern and southern factions had a heyday was because the two seniors, Fu Huaiyin and Gu Yunshen, made the best use of the strengths of the two factions and created the reputation of the northern and southern factions."

"Well, but there is one thing that was not mentioned in the notes. Mr. Gu Yunshen, and my great aunt, Ms. Fu Huaiyin, had a past." Fu Tianze said softly, with some regret in his tone.

Xu Qingru was a little curious: "You mean, they are lovers?"

Fu Tianze nodded: "Well, it can be said that way. They both have feelings for each other, but in that era, the marriages of rich families were ordered by their parents, and the words of matchmakers were hindered by etiquette. They didn't say it. Later, the Anti-Japanese War broke out , They were all busy protecting those cultural relics, and had no time to talk about their children's personal affairs. But they agreed that they would get married when they won."

When Fu Tianze said this, he suddenly stopped.Xu Qingru could feel the sadness emanating from his body, she had already guessed what happened later, but she still asked unwillingly: "Then what happened later?"

"Later, before the end of the war, the grand aunt was assassinated by the Japanese in order to protect a batch of cultural relics. Mr. Gu Yunshen never married, and later adopted a son from his younger brother, who is the father of Grandpa Gu Kaiming."

After Fu Tianze finished speaking, he tightened his arms slightly, as if he wanted to rub Xu Qingru into his arms.

Xu Qingru fell silent, she didn't know what to say.

We who live in peaceful times, the present at our fingertips is the future that those ancestors will never reach.

After a long time, Fu Tianze saw that Xu Qingru seemed to be calmer, and continued: "Grandma Taigu always wanted to go to the sea once, but she didn't have the chance to go to see it until she died unfortunately. Therefore, Mr. Gu Yunshen will stay in all the houses of the Gu family for a while. There is a room with a window facing the sea, and the lights are lit every night, as if waiting for the aunt to come back.”

Xu Qingru's heart trembled slightly, she raised her hand a little touched, grabbed Fu Tianze's hand on her waist, and said, "But grandma Taigu will never come back. In this world, there are no Gu Yunshen and Fu Huaiyin."

"Xiao Ru, some things are just like this. Although we all long for a happy ending, joys and sorrows are just like the waxing and waning of the moon. They are irresistible."

Fu Tianze said these words calmly, which made Xu Qingru feel a little chilly.
