The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

That room, in the flower hall.

Gu Jingxi looked indifferent, as if his mood was not affected by the younger generation's affairs. He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. He said warmly: "The tea here is good, with a fragrant fragrance on the teeth and cheeks and a sweet aftertaste."

Hearing this, Mrs. Gu felt an unknown fire in her heart. She glared at him and said reproachfully: "After such a thing happened, you still have the heart to drink tea?"

Gu Jingxi smiled lightly: "You can't let down the good tea here."

Seeing his nonchalant expression, Mrs. Gu couldn't figure out what he was thinking. She sighed softly and said melancholy: "Yao Ling, Xiu Ming has been getting more and more outrageous in doing things these days. He would never do such extraordinary things before. matter."

Gu Jingxi paused in his drinking of tea, remained silent for a moment, and then said softly: "Perhaps this is his nature. He can show his best side in good times and reveal his true nature in bad times. Or maybe it's because he has been living too smoothly these years. He is my only son and the heir to the title, so he is unscrupulous."

Mrs. Gu was devastated. The grandson she had personally chosen, the grandson she had held in her hands for many years, and the grandson she was most satisfied with, was now so out of character, looking like he was embarrassed by his responsibility.

The mother and son looked at each other and were silent for a long time. Mrs. Gu sighed softly again and said: "Yao Ling, you are busy with official duties. Please take the time to educate him and let him change his temper."

"If he could listen to the teachings, how could he make mistakes again and again? I warned him last time because of Aunt Li, but not long after, he started to act stupid again." Gu Jingxi lowered his eyes and looked at the light green He drank tea, shook the cup gently, and the water surface rippled. His eyes became darker and darker, and he smiled imperceptibly.

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu was stunned and asked hesitantly: "Yao Ling, could you just let it go?" She said, then shook her head in disapproval, "It's the father's fault if the son doesn't teach, you should take it for granted." How can a father raise a child without educating him?"

Gu Jingxi shook his head and said ashamedly: "Mother, there is nothing my son can do. Over the years, whether it is moral character or knowledge, my son thinks that he has never failed to teach him, but rotten wood cannot be carved, and a wall of dung cannot be leveled."

Hearing this, Mrs. Gu fell silent again, gently twirling the rosary beads with her right hand, and was thinking about everything in an instant.

Privately, she didn't want to give up the grandson she had loved for many years, and how could the heir to the Marquis be a person who didn't know how to do things properly? If Xiu Ming behaves like this, if Yao Ling does not suppress Xiu Ming a hundred years later, Xiu Ming will cause trouble, and he may not even be able to keep his title.

She looked at her son and advised: "Xiu Ming is only sixteen years old this year. He is still young and his temper can be improved."

Gu Jingxi didn't answer, and stroked the outer wall of the teacup with his fingers, his expression indifferent, showing no emotion.

Seeing that he was in need of help, Mrs. Gu became anxious and immediately gave him a strong dose of medicine: "You don't care about him. If the Marquis Mansion is handed over to him in the future, if it is destroyed, the century-old foundation of our ancestors will also be destroyed." How can you still have the face to meet your ancestors?"

Gu Jingxi replied: "If mother is worried about this, then it will be easy to handle."

Mrs. Gu was at a loss and looked confused.

Gu Jingxi raised his lips and smiled lightly: "If he becomes the prince and inherits the title in the future, it will destroy the inheritance of the ancestors. Changing the prince can solve the problem."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Gu was shocked. She looked at her son in shock and amazement. A figure flashed in her mind. She lowered her voice and asked hesitantly: "Yao Ling, are you interested in cultivating essays?"

Gu Jingxi's face froze, then he smiled and said, "Mother, if you are a capable person, you may not be a literary scholar."

Mrs. Gu was disappointed, but she still begged for mercy for her beloved grandson: "Xiu Ming is embarrassed by his current situation. Let's give him another chance. If he doesn't know how to cherish it, then choose someone who can be responsible for it." Prince."

Gu Jingxi nodded and said, "Don't worry, mother, I have my own sense of discretion."

"That's it, that's all, I don't care." Mrs. Gu sighed, not wanting to continue this unpleasant topic, and said, "Since you are here, come and take a walk with me. Maybe we, mother and son, haven't walked together for a long time."

"it is good."

Gu Jingxi put down the tea cup, stood up and took a few steps forward, reaching out to help her.

Mrs. Gu glared at him angrily: "Mom, I know you are filial, but I am not yet old enough to have to be helped when I walk."

Gu Jingxi smiled apologetically and said, "That's what mother said."

-

Everyone in the house knew about the fight between Gu Xiuming and three people in the morning.

But Mrs. Gu issued a hush-hush order, and the governor's maid didn't dare to spread the word, so no one knew what the reason for the fight was.

I don't know what's going on in the second room. Gu Jingsong is not interested in the fights between children. Gu Xiuhong is not a gossip. He doesn't even think of sending someone to inquire. He is locked in the study and only reads books by sages. .

However, the second wife, Mrs. Chen, was interested in this matter. She went to Wei Ruixuan that afternoon to chat with Meng Jinyao and get some news.

Mrs. Chen exchanged pleasantries with her and then got down to business: "Third brothers and sisters, I heard that there was a fight between Xiu Ming, Xiu Wen and the Second Young Master Meng this morning?"

Meng Jinyao had long expected that she was here for this matter, and nodded frankly: "That's what happened."

Chen asked: "Why did these children suddenly get into a fight?"

Meng Jinyao sighed: "What kind of temper our family has Xiu Ming, I think my second sister-in-law also knows it. He has done things inappropriately recently, and he slandered others in the morning. Xiu Wen and my second brother couldn't see it, so they argued with him. Who would have thought that he would become angry from shame?" I beat Xiu Wen and it eventually turned into a fight between three people."

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen's interest was aroused, and she followed Meng Jinyao and sighed: "Xiu Ming is a little impulsive, how can he attack his brother? I heard that Xiu Wen was beaten with a bruised nose and face, which is really pitiful." She said , his tone paused, then he asked again, "But who is Xiu Ming slandering? He actually annoyed both Xiu Wen and Second Young Master Meng."

Meng Jinyao glanced at her lightly to satisfy her curiosity: "My second brother passed the examination of Lingshan Academy and will be admitted to Lingshan Academy. But when Xiu Ming saw that Xiu Wen entered Lingshan Academy through my husband's relationship, he thought My second brother also relied on my husband’s connections to get in, and he also slandered me, so they got into a dispute and ended up fighting.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen understood instantly.

So that's it. Previously, she guessed that her brother-in-law might want to adopt Xiuwen to the third room and replace Xiu Ming as the eldest son.

Now that Xiu Ming has disappointed his brother-in-law and mother-in-law one after another, he may really adopt Xiu Wen and make Xiu Wen the heir apparent of the Hou family, while Xiu Ming only takes the title of the eldest son of the third family.

What a fool!

The punishment for escaping from marriage is so severe. From now on, he should put his tail between his legs and commit suicide one after another. This is because he is afraid that the throne of the heir apparent will not change hands quickly enough.

Look how clever Xiu Wen is?

When he heard his brother slandering his third aunt and two siblings, the child immediately stood up and argued with his brother. Although he was injured in the end, he left a good impression on his elders and paved a bright future for himself. Lu, no wonder Zhang’s tail was raised to the sky when he saw her just now.

After a while, Mrs. Chen said meaningfully: "Three younger brothers and sisters, Xiuwen is still a filial child."

Meng Jinyao understood what she meant and didn't want to explain. She nodded with a smile: "You are indeed filial." After saying that, she picked up the small teapot and refilled Chen's tea.
