Women Wearing Men: The Growth Path of the Bastards of the Aristocratic Family

Chapter 234
Gu Yunji did what he said, before dawn the next day, he knelt outside the courtyard of Gu Kaizhen and Mrs. Wang wearing only a single shirt to receive his punishment.

Gu Kaizhen entrusted Mrs. Wang to take care of all family affairs, and almost never asked about the affairs of the back house, and did not know what happened last night.When he saw his son kneeling outside the door early in the morning, his lips were blue from the cold, he was startled.

After questioning, Gu Kaizhen found out that Mrs. Wang had punished her pregnant daughter-in-law to stand for more than half an hour for the sake of two intermediaries, and almost violated the family law against her, even forcing Gu Yunji to come to plead guilty to him.

Gu Kaizhen didn't understand the twists and turns in the back house, and he didn't understand the majesty of a mother-in-law disciplining a daughter-in-law. He only knew that his third daughter-in-law, Xu Shuhua, was born in a noble family and needed extra love and care. He had to speak softly. Where else can I be reprimanded and beaten.

From a family perspective, the Gu family and the Xu family are evenly matched, but from a personal perspective, Gu Kaizhen's status is far worse than Xu Chengyu's. If he offends her natal family by criticizing Xu Shuhua, he will not be able to bear the anger of the Xu family. rise.

Not to mention that Gu Yunji was his most proud son, and his youthful career as an official had brought him so much face and fame that he couldn't even love him enough, so how could he be willing to punish him.

After asking what was going on, Gu Kaizhen was furious, and reprimanded Fa's wife, who had been respected for many years, in front of all the servants in the courtyard.She scolded her for being unkind as a mother and harshly scolded her daughter-in-law, her hands were so long that she took care of her son's house affairs, and even ignored the heirs of the Gu family for a trivial matter, and punished Xu Shuhua for standing for so long.

"The young couple are living a good life. You have to build up the house to make things difficult for them. How can you be so disrespectful to the mother and mother-in-law of the child? If you are really bored, go to the farm outside the city to farm! Save you Still have the energy to control Ji'er's lack of housing, what a problem!"

These were Gu Kaizhen's original words, which spread throughout the Gu family in less than an hour. It is said that Mrs. Wang's complexion was extremely ugly at that time, she didn't eat a bite of breakfast, and she was forced to feel full.

However, the Quan Gu family knew that she punished Xu Shuhua to hire a doctor in the middle of the night. After she was angry, she had to talk softly to Xu Shuhua with a straight face, telling her not to take it seriously, and sent a lot of nutrition to their yard Supplements, for fear of becoming a bad mother-in-law.

"Brother, this trick is really powerful!"

In the yard, Gu Yunqiao listened to Xu Shuhua's story, widened his eyes in surprise, and said with a smile: "He knows that the mother is in charge of the backyard. If he rashly stands up for his sister-in-law, he might not know how to use you in the future. Simply go directly I begged my father, and this trick was used to retreat, my mother was reprimanded by my father, and from now on I will definitely not interfere in the affairs of the courtyard between you and your brother."

In this day and age, the word filial piety is too big, children and elders have conflicts, wrong is wrong, good is wrong, anyway, it is impossible to say that the elders are wrong.

Gu Yunji handled this matter just right, Xu Shuhua's disobedience to her mother-in-law's order was indeed wrong.So he didn't deny this, but took the fault on himself, transferred the conflicting parties from mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to mother and son, and the relationship changed from distant to close, and it was difficult for Mrs. Wang to punish him.

On the other hand, Mrs. Wang's fault can't be said by the son, so it's up to Gu Kaizhen to say it.Gu Kaizhen is Mrs. Wang's husband and the real talker in the family. In this family, if he says that Mrs. Wang is wrong, then Mrs. Wang is wrong.

At the same time, Gu Yunji intentionally spread the news that he had hired a doctor for Xu Shuhua in the middle of the night, exaggerating Mrs. Wang's fault and forcing her to treat Xu Shuhua with a smile. No matter what she thinks in the future, at least she has to be polite to Xu Shuhua on the surface angry.

The key point of this is that Mrs. Wang is his aunt, and the relationship is not very close, and she is not afraid of affecting the relationship between mother and child.In the future, most of the family's property will not fall to Gu Yunji, and the power of housekeeping will not fall to Xu Shuhua. In addition, Gu Yunji has a future, so he doesn't need to depend on Mrs. Wang for his livelihood, so he will be confident.

Thinking of this level, Xu Shuhua sighed: "Your brother is a man. I really don't know how he figured out all these rear-end affairs. He didn't use brute force or blind cowardice, but he advanced and retreated. I may not be able to do it." He's so right."

Gu Yunqiao said with a smile: "So what about men? People in the back house are full of twists and turns. It's just such a small matter. It can't be more difficult than my brother's imperial examination, right? My brother is a man in the front yard. He has an official position and behaves well. It's much more convenient than you and me, as long as he wants to protect his sister-in-law, there will be nothing he can't do."

"Everyone says that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is difficult. I think the key point is not mother-in-law or daughter-in-law, but the husband and son between them. If a son of man blindly obeys his mother and wrongs his wife, it is foolish filial piety; a husband If you disobey your mother in order to make your wife happy, it will cause the mother and child to separate, and in the long run, it will also be detrimental to the relationship between husband and wife."

"My brother can protect his sister-in-law so firmly because he and your husband and wife are of the same mind. What you think is what he thinks, and what he wishes is what you want, so he doesn't care whether it will damage the relationship between mother and child. But I sigh that there are not many men in the world who can do this, they are often vacillating between their wives and mothers, and in the end it makes both sides sad."

Xu Shuhua saw that she spoke clearly and logically, and finally came to a sad conclusion. He was amused for a moment, and reached out and tapped her forehead: "How old are you, and you have started thinking about the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law so early? The long-winded speech is actually more thorough than I thought. some."

Gu Yunqiao pouted dissatisfiedly: "It's not too young, I will reach my age next year, and soon I will be able to discuss marriage, if I don't think about it, it will be too late."

"Sister-in-law doesn't care if she thinks about it thoroughly, because there is still a brother who will help you. But I don't know what kind of man I will marry in the future. What if it doesn't matter? Don't I have to figure it out myself? "

It is said that girls Huaichun, other girls at this age are full of beautiful fantasies about their future husbands, but Gu Yunqiao sighed all day long, thinking about all kinds of bad possibilities, as if she was not about to marry, but To jump into the fire pit.

Xu Shuhua understood her worries, and also knew that this matter was inevitable, so he could only comfort him and said: "Qiaoqiao, don't be afraid, even though marriage is a big deal, your parents ordered you and your matchmaker said, but you still have your brother after all. At least he has an official now. In front of your father-in-law and mother-in-law, you have more or less the right to speak, so you won't just watch you jump into the fire pit."

These words did a good job of reducing Gu Yunqiao's worries: Gu Yunji loves her and respects her ideas. If she is not satisfied with the candidate for her future husband-in-law, Gu Yunji will definitely stand by her side.

Thinking of this, Gu Yunqiao unconsciously raised her eyebrows, feeling relaxed again.

While talking, someone came from the kitchen and asked Xu Shuhua for instructions: "May the Third Young Madam, Eldest Young Master, Third Young Master, and Mr. Cheng, how do they arrange their meals today?"
