Wanfu, the Reborn Empress

Chapter 35
The next day.

The weather that had been fine for several days suddenly began to snow lightly. Silver snowflakes fell from the sky, and soon covered the bustling capital city with a pure white blanket.

Because of the cold winter, almost no one would walk around casually outside, even in Gu's mansion, few people walked in the courtyard; only the servants who came back and forth were either holding a brazier or holding hot water, waiting for them. Masters who live in each yard.

It's just that today's Gu Mansion looks unusual. Every servant walks in a hurry, with his head lowered, not daring to glance casually; tension and depression.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that everyone has such a look, because one person will be sent away quietly in the Gu residence today, and that person is the second wife Jiang Shi who has been making all kinds of noises in the residence these two days.

Although the Jiang family has been divorced, the Gu family has left a way for her because of her love for raising the eldest son and daughter for many years; in Daliang, almost all women who are sent home by their husband's family Become a laughing stock, which is the real reason why the divorced woman would rather commit suicide than go back to her natal home and suffer all kinds of stares.

Because the Jiang family didn't make any contribution over the years, because she still had a bit of hard work, the Gu family arranged for her to live in a village outside the city. It was also a place for her to retire, and she was not allowed to return to Jiang in disgrace. It is considered a great kindness for the family to suffer humiliation.

Even if everyone knows that Jiang's end today is due to her own fault, the noise made by Jiang's still makes the masters of the two rooms unhappy; therefore, in the past two days, under the care of the Gu family Almost all the people were cautious, for fear that if they made a mistake, they would offend the masters.

At this moment, before the snow fell heavily, a dusty carriage stopped at the back door of Gu Mansion.

With the support of the maid, Jiang walked out the back door tremblingly, and stood in front of the carriage.

The moment she knew what she had done was exposed, she knew that she would not end well, but when the divorce letter was delivered to her, she understood her heart. It turned out that she really couldn't bear such a situation. Consequences; but it is obviously too late to regret, now, what else can she do besides accepting such an arrangement?
Gu Yanxuan took his mother's package and delivered it to his mother himself. Looking at his mother whose eyes were red and swollen from crying, his heart was pierced, "Mother, take care of yourself. My son will take his sister to see you when he has time. I have already sent people to take care of Biezhuang. The servants who serve there don’t dare to bully you easily. If they dare to defy you, don’t be afraid. Remember all the names of those people, and tell your son when he goes, son Out of anger for you."

Listening to his beloved son's caring and protective words, Jiang's heart that was almost going cold finally found some warmth.

In fact, she has nothing to miss about the Gu family. Back then, many sisters of the Jiang family envied her for marrying well and being able to become the daughter-in-law of the grand master, but only she knew best that in this family, she had a good life. She was not comfortable at all; if it hadn't been for these two children all these years, she would have been unable to bear it long ago.

Right now, seeing her only son coming to see her off, she felt only endless reluctance in her heart, stretched out her trembling fingers to caress his son's handsome brows, with tears in her eyes, she choked up and said, "Yan Xuan, mother is gone!" , Mother will not be by your side in the future, only you will take care of yourself."

"mother……"

"Mother knows that you are kind-hearted and treat others kindly, but Yanxuan, mother is here to tell you that not everyone in this world is worthy of your sincere treatment; mother knows that you don't like to hear these words, but mother must be right. You said, in the Gu family, the only one closest to you is your younger sister, and he, Gu Yanchao and Gu Yanxi, are not good people, so you must guard against them, and don't be harmed by them."

Gu Yanxuan really didn't like to hear these words, but looking at his mother who was about to leave, he couldn't bear to interrupt what she was saying, so he could only obediently lower his head, listening to her every word clearly.

Jiang patted his son's face reluctantly, and continued: "Although your father saved you this time, you were also sent to Changzhou by your grandfather because of my involvement; son, we are not afraid of you being sent to Changzhou now, Because you are still young, you will come back sooner or later; when you come back, you must not be as stupid as before. You must remember that in this world, you are the only one who will not harm you, and only you will not betray you. Xuan, mother's life has already been ruined, but yours has just begun. Mother hopes that you will be able to stand alone in the future, win for your mother, and become your sister's support with your own efforts; you know that Wenwen's character is arrogant, If no one supports her, when she grows up and gets married in the future, she will definitely be bullied by her husband's family."

Thinking of her daughter who was still lying on the hospital bed, Jiang couldn't hold back the tears anymore, and wept aloud covering her mouth and nose.

The tears in Gu Yanxuan's eyes also fell uncontrollably. He hugged his mother who seemed to be several years old overnight, and promised her: "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely take care of myself and take care of you." Good sister; mother, my son promises you that I will do everything possible to bring you back to the capital, and our family reunion will be just around the corner."

Hearing Gu Yanxuan's filial comforting words, although Jiang felt it was impossible, he still nodded.

The mother and son bid farewell, and in the end, Jiang shi stepped into the carriage after thousands of words. Following the axle marks made by the wheels on the snow, the carriage gradually moved away until it turned into a small black spot. Gu Yanxuan still stood still. In the same place, refused to leave for a long time.

When Gu Yanxi appeared at the gate of the backyard wrapped in a warm cloak and holding the stove, what he saw was Brother Xuan who had treated her warmly in the past, standing motionless at the gate of the yard as if he had turned into an ice sculpture in this cold weather.

Luo Mei couldn't help but sighed, and whispered next to Gu Yanxi: "This second lady has done so many evil things, but the evil consequences that have borne in the end have to be borne by the eldest son, which is really unfair to the eldest son .”

unfair?
The corner of Gu Yanxi's mouth curled into a faint smile. In this world, there is no such thing as absolute fairness; just like in her previous life, she never harmed anyone, and even treated the servants around her very leniently; But is her result satisfactory?
Relatives passed away, friends died, and even the loyal servants around her died tragically. If it is fair, wouldn't her experience in the previous life be even more unfair?

After being reborn, she has long left behind all these so-called fairness and unfairness; in the bloody lesson, she understands a truth; that is, she wants to survive in this seemingly blooming life, You must never allow others to deceive and humiliate you. For those who are cunning, tolerance is the poison that hurts you the most.

It's just that punishing the Jiang family this time has hurt brother Xuan, which made her feel guilty.

Because whether it was in the previous life or in this life, Gu Yanxuan treated her fairly well, but it was only good.

As his father said, although Gu Yanxuan never really harmed her, between his own relatives and her, he has always chosen to protect his relatives; although he has never bullied her, But she didn't give much help to her who was living in pain.

As the saying goes, merits and demerits balance each other, so she didn't have much resentment towards Gu Yanxuan; but now, seeing that he was unable to participate in the spring scientific examination in years to come because of Jiang's implication, she felt a little guilty in her heart.

He was originally a person who had nothing to do with the world, but he was involved in these disputes. He couldn't even save himself, but he still wanted to save the people around him; Too soft and kind, or he is too hard on himself.

Gu Yanxi sighed, and took the initiative to walk towards Gu Yanxuan. When he got closer, he found that his shoulders had been covered with a layer of snow because he stood outside for a long time, and his pale face had no trace of blood. It really hurts a little.

Gu Yanxi handed the stove in his arms to Gu Yanxuan, seeing how he gradually regained consciousness due to the temperature of the stove, he opened his mouth and said, "Brother Xuan, do you regret seeing today's results?"

Gu Yanxuan felt the heat from the stove in his hands, and looked back at Gu Yanxi, with pain in his eyes that couldn't go away, "No matter what she did, no matter how many things she did wrong, she will always be my biological mother, protecting her is What I should do, so there is no regret later.”

Regarding Gu Yanxuan's answer, Gu Yanxi was not surprised, "Then brother Xuan will hate me?"

"What do you blame?" Gu Yanxuan pulled out a sarcastic smile, "Blame you for exposing my mother's conspiracy? Or blame you for letting my mother be divorced? Jiaojiao, no matter what happened in the past, how much did my mother do to you? Evil thing, she has paid for the sins she committed by having such an end today; from now on, we will not owe you any more. So..."

Gu Yanxuan's voice paused, and the pain in his eyes was replaced by a touch of persistence: "So, in the future, I hope you will not embarrass Wenwen, she was damaged by falling into the frozen lake, and now even her mother is gone. She often bullies you, and after paying so much, you can be regarded as getting it back."

Hearing what Gu Yanxuan said, Gu Yanxi stared at him for a long time; sure enough, he still believed what Jiang and Gu Yanwen said, knowing that she pushed Gu Yanwen on purpose, so he said these words of goodwill and warning to her.

It's just that right now, Gu Yanxi will never admit that Gu Yanwen's 'accident' has anything to do with her.

So, with a slight smile, he replied to Gu Yanxuan: "Brother Xuan, please don't worry, big sister grew up with me, we are relatives with blood ties, as Brother Xuan said just now, the past will eventually become the past tense, as long as big sister doesn't do it again Bully me like before, and I will get along with her in peace."
