Chapter 264
For several days in a row, from Gu Kaizhen to Mrs. Wang, from Aunt Zhao to Zheng Xiuyun, almost everyone in the entire Gu family went to persuade her, but Gu Yunqiao just refused to agree to marry into the Xia family.
However, Gu Yunqiao refused to agree, and the Gu family was unwilling to compromise, so they simply locked her in the room and did not let her go out.He planned to spend it with her like this, so as to wear away her arrogance and arrogance that a woman in this world shouldn't have, and let her marry obediently.
Gu Yunqiao cried and cried for nowhere, knocked things down, tried to escape, tried everything, but it still didn't make Gu Kaizhen and Mrs. Wang let go.Gradually, she calmed down and no longer tried to fight fiercely, but she still held her breath and refused to give in.
The light in the boudoir was dim, Gu Yunqiao's thin body was sitting by the dressing table, her haggard face reflected in the smooth bronze mirror.In just a few days, that lively and delicate girl became haggard and lifeless. Hearing the sound of Gu Yunji pushing the door in, she didn't react at all, and just sat there blankly.
Gu Yunji felt sour when he saw it, and said in a hoarse voice: "Qiaoqiao..."
Gu Yunqiao had no expression on her face, and said softly, "My brother is also like them, is he here to persuade me to marry?"
Gu Yunji's throat suddenly blocked and he was speechless.
Gu Yunji's body is equipped with a modern heart, and he can't see everything in this feudal era, but he believes that it is difficult for a mayfly to shake a tree, and it is difficult for an individual to fight against the entire society.So he disguised himself, persuaded himself, integrated himself into this era, and grew up as a member of feudalism.
However, feudal society is to eat people, especially women are eaten until there is no bone left. Gu Yunji was able to do nothing before and take care of himself alone.But now that feudalism's fangs were on his sister's head, he couldn't continue to pretend to be asleep no matter what.
Sadly, even when he's awake, he's powerless to change that.
If the son of the Xia family is a libertine with bad conduct, or the Xia family is a devil's den, or Gu Kaizhen and his wife are selfish parents who want to sell their daughters for glory... Gu Yunji has the confidence to stand by his sister and stand for her. She refuses the marriage.
As long as the Gu Kaizhen couple and the Xia family are a little untenable in this matter, with Gu Yunji's current official status, he is confident that he can protect Gu Yunqiao and prevent her from marrying someone she doesn't want to marry.
Unfortunately, from the perspective of this era, Gu Kaizhen and his wife are parents who love their children and want their daughter to have a happy home.Gu Yunji also knew about the Xia family, and it was indeed a kind family as rumored. The second son Xia had a pure nature and a gentle personality, so he could be called a good man.
No matter in terms of justice or human feelings, this is a very good marriage, and Gu Yunji has no position to help his sister "deviant".
But if he were to side with Gu Kaizhen and his wife and force Gu Yunqiao to marry into Xia's family, he would not be able to do it.
After a long silence, Gu Yunji tried to speak: "Qiaoqiao, father said..."
"elder brother."
Gu Yunqiao interrupted him, turned around slowly, and stared straight into his eyes: "Let me ask you, Ruo Xi'er also encountered the same situation as me when she grew up, and also the same as me." vexatious', will you let her marry?"
After a moment of silence, Gu Yunji said: "...No."
He is Gu Zhaoxi's father, he holds his daughter in his palm and loves him dearly, if his daughter is unwilling to marry, he will naturally not force her.
But the current situation is different. After all, he is only Gu Yunqiao's elder brother, not her father.In matters of marriage, parents have the greatest decision-making power, and Gu Yunji can't bypass Gu Kaizhen and Mrs. Wang to intervene in his sister's marriage no matter what.
Seemingly understanding this, the corners of Gu Yunqiao's lips raised slightly, she smiled desolately, and tears fell silently.
Gu Yunji felt pain in his heart when he saw it. After searching for a long time, he managed to find a topic that could be used as comfort: "...The second son of Xia, Xia Cheng, I went to test his tone. He doesn't have too many demands on his future heirs. It doesn't matter if you have a son or not, as long as you have a direct child who is related to him by blood, you can..."
"After all, you still have to have a child, don't you?" Gu Yunqiao interrupted him again, "'As long as one child is born', the implication is nothing more than that I must have at least one child, and the rest will be born by concubines. right?"
Gu Yunji was silent for a while, and then said: "If you really don't want to, we can find a way to leave the mother and keep the children, and bring the concubine's children born in the concubine's room to your knees to raise. But the premise is that you can accept the child who is not your own. Treat it as your own."
"Then dare to ask brother, how can you guarantee that I will not be pregnant?"
Gu Yunqiao's tears were still wet, and she looked at him with burning eyes: "Not to mention, the consummation of the house is the first thing to pass. After all, the second son of Xia is a man with a normal body, and he will not be like you, brother, willingly. The wife drank the elixir."
Gu Yunji's heart skipped a beat, his eyes showed horror: "You, how do you know?"
Except for Xu Shuhua, he didn't even tell Xudong about this matter. The doctors who studied the prescription all signed contracts with each other, and the agreement was tight-lipped, and it was impossible to leak it out.
Gu Yunqiao said: "You have been drinking the medicine for several months, and your face is pale and your beard is sparse. But whoever gets along with you every day, who can't see the abnormality in your body? That is to say, your sister-in-law is your pillow. , I don’t want to doubt my husband, so I believe your nonsense of ‘nourishing yin and nourishing yang’.”
"In addition, after having Xi'er, you always talked about not having any more children. In order to prevent your sister-in-law from becoming pregnant, you slept in the study for half a year. However, you moved back suddenly at the end of last year. If you hadn't lost your fertility, you would have What could be the reason?"
Seeing that Gu Yunji was so shocked that he could not speak, Gu Yunqiao smiled, with a rare sly look in his dark eyes: "Of course, this is all my speculation, and it is your reaction that really makes me sure. .I lied to you just now, brother."
Gu Yunji opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Gu Yunqiao lowered her eyes and said in a muffled voice, "Brother can do this because you have been in love with your sister-in-law for many years, and you have seen her have a difficult delivery, so you can make up your mind to sever your heirs."
"But Xia Sheng and I have just met a few times. Even if I become his wife in the future, he will definitely not be able to drink the elixir for me. But——for those who do not want to conceive and have children, drinking the elixir is indeed It is the quickest and once-for-all method.”
Speaking of this, Gu Yunqiao sighed leisurely: "In all fairness, the Xia family is indeed a good marriage. The population is simple, and the family background is neither high nor low. Maybe it can't be prosperous and rich, but it is the most suitable for living. It is complete in every aspect, but it is a pity , Second Young Master Xia has the fertility of a normal man, if he can't give birth, he will be perfect."
Hearing Gu Yunqiao's regretful tone, Gu Yunji's heart sank: "You want... to secretly sterilize Second Young Master Xia?"
