The little daughter-in-law of the palace

Chapter 16 The former fiancé returns, but the new fiancé goes to jail (2)
Jiang Jizhou had confessed before his death that he would be buried with his wife after his death, and there were already two coffins left in the pavilion shaded by green trees.

Hanzhu hugged her younger sister, and the two sisters called their father and mother for a while, and the neighbors who came to the funeral all cried and wet their sleeves.

But they were just spectators after all, the red sun was setting, the neighbors dispersed one after another, and in a blink of an eye there were only Jiang's family and Gu Heng left in the mountains.

He stood up from one side and walked towards Hanzhu.

Zhang Fu wanted to stop him, but Uncle Zhang dragged him out of the pavilion. There are some things that must be explained.The old lady of the Gu family has no conscience. Uncle Zhang absolutely does not want the eldest girl to remarry, but he did not take the master's words seriously before his death. , and want to marry him, Uncle Zhang will dissuade him, but he will not use the master's last words to force the eldest girl to marry.

Aunt Zhang Chunliu and the others did not leave the pavilion and continued to kneel behind the Hanzhu sisters.

Gu Heng knelt down on Hanzhu's side.

Hanzhu wiped away her tears, looked up at him, "What are you still doing here?"

Because of kneeling for two days and one night, Gu Heng's face was haggard, his voice was hoarse, and his black eyes were bloodshot.He stared at her closely, tears welled up in his eyes, "Hanzhu, you are my childhood sweetheart, you know how much I like you, my father-in-law died because of me, I can't argue with it, but I really can't bear to see you marry someone else , Hanzhu, shall we re-engage? As long as you agree, I guarantee that no one in the Gu family will dare to bully you again..."

"Who is your childhood sweetheart?"

Hanzhu choked with sobs and refuted him, pointing at the tablet of his parents and bursting into tears, "I lost my mother when I was six years old. Keeping the boudoir training, except at the invitation of your grandmother, I seldom go out. I have seen you only a handful of times. Where did my childhood sweetheart come from? It is not enough for your Gu family to kill my father, and it is not enough to blame me for stealing. Now you want to slander me reputation?"

She is not raised by a mother, but she knows the etiquette that a good daughter should keep. In March, Gu Heng was going to give her pearl flowers, but she left without even looking at them. Xu and her childhood sweetheart?If she had known today, she would never have accepted this marriage!

"Go, go now!" Filled with remorse, Hanzhu chased away the guest crying.

"Hanzhu..." Gu Heng approached her on his knees, and wanted to persuade her again, but Aunt Zhang Chunliu behind him pushed him aside together, and Uncle Zhang Zhang Fu rushed over from outside.

Facing the angry gazes of several people, Gu Heng took three steps back and knelt down towards Hanzhu again, "Hanzhu, I have betrayed you in this life, in front of the spirit of my benefactor and wife, I, Gu Heng, swear to the sky that no matter what Now, as long as you sisters ask, I will do my best to take care of you, and I will never stand idly by!"

"Who will take care of you?" Zhang Fu was so angry that he kicked him hard in the chest, "Hanzhu is my fiancée, we are going to get married soon, if you are sensible, stay away from Jiang's house, and if you dare to take a step closer, see if I don't fight her." kill you!"

Gu Heng didn't even look at him, stood up calmly, took one last look at Hanzhu, and walked slowly down the mountain.

Back at Gu's house with a gloomy expression on his face.

In the main room, seeing her grandson finally came back, Mrs. Gu lowered her eyes a little guilty.

Dong cried and greeted her, "Ziyan, have you explained it clearly to Hanzhu?"

"Explain what? Explain that grandma didn't wrong her for stealing?" Gu Heng helped his mother to sit down, and looked coldly at the old man who was seated, "Grandmother, my grandson has always respected you, this is the first time, next time you If you dare to make a claim without consulting me, don't blame me for not recognizing you as a grandmother!"

Mrs. Gu could tell that her grandson was just angry at her for making her own claims, not at her for regretting the marriage!
Overjoyed in her heart, Mrs. Gu sent her daughter-in-law and granddaughter away, and there were only grandparents and grandchildren left in the house, so she apologized to her grandson, "I didn't expect him to be so angry...but I'm doing it for your own good, you In the future, he is a person with great prospects, how can he marry a small family girl who lost her mother as a regular wife?"

Gu Heng was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, his voice lowered, and the chill inside remained undiminished: "Then grandma, has it ever occurred to me that if this incident becomes serious, if I lose the reputation of pissing off my father-in-law, even if I pass the exam, I may be punished." The government has taken it back, so you can no longer participate in Chunwei?"

Old Madam Gu's face turned pale immediately.

Gu Heng leaned on the back of the chair and reached out to pinch his forehead: "Fortunately, the Jiang family is not a troublemaker. Wutong County is a small place, and I don't have a deadly enemy now. When I become an official in the future, my grandma will come and do something like this again, which will ruin my life." Fame, things don't end so easily."

The old lady Gu really knew she was wrong, and apologized to her grandson again and again, "Grandmother is old and confused, Ziyan can rest assured, from now on, grandma will never hold you back, and will discuss with you first if you have anything to do."

Gu Heng nodded: "Grandmother has restrained the servants in the past few days, and don't spread any more words that slander the Jiang family. After a few days like this, this matter will fade away."

Mrs. Gu solemnly agreed.

Gu Heng went back to the house to rest, and lay down on the bed, thinking of his beautiful face, his heart was complicated.

Although the beauty is alluring, her family background is not obvious, it is not beneficial to his official career, and there is no pity to cancel the engagement, but it would be great if she was more stupid, coaxing her with sweet words, taking her back home as a concubine, and adding beauty to her red sleeves...

Forget it, you can't have both fish and bear's paw, if you break it, you will break it, and there will always be better ones in the future.

Closing his eyes, Gu Heng silently recited a passage, and soon fell asleep.

In Jiang's family, Hanzhu coaxed his younger sister to sleep, but he couldn't sleep all night.

Dad left, and she and her sister were the only ones left at home.

Zhang Fu...

Since my father thinks that Zhang Fu is suitable, then let her marry. The most urgent thing is to stabilize the family. It doesn't matter whether she marries well or not. The important thing is to raise her sister smoothly and find a good husband's family for her in the future.

Looking at the younger sister shrunk into a ball beside her, Hanzhu felt sad.

However, she wanted to marry Zhang Fu with peace of mind, but some people didn't want to. The Jiang family's servants cleaned the courtyard the next day. He bullied the master and threatened Hanzhu to marry Zhang Fu.
