Although Gu Xiuwen scolded his sister for being stupid and willful, he still felt sorry for her. Although her sister didn't say it, he could feel that she must have been wronged by her husband's family.

He sighed softly and said to Gu Xiuyuan, "Brother, Xuan Yi may not be happy in her husband's family."

Gu Xiuyuan frowned and shook his head helplessly: "Even if things don't go as planned, we, as family members, can't interfere in other people's family affairs. Unless they do something extraordinary, we can come to seek justice. The family environment in Wu'anbo Mansion is complicated and we don't have any means. It is expected that a girl will be wronged when she gets married, let her learn from it and gain wisdom."

At this time, Gu Xiuming's voice came in: "Eldest brother, fourth brother, why do you say that?" He looked at the two brothers with a smile and said disapprovingly, "I think the eldest brother-in-law is very good to the eldest sister. He I always speak softly to my eldest sister, for fear of scaring her if I speak louder, so why are my days so unsatisfactory?"

As soon as he said this, the two brothers turned their heads to look at him.

Gu Xiuwen saw the smile on his face, but he didn't know if he was judging a gentleman with a villain's heart. He always felt that he was gloating about his misfortune. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xuan Yi's face was a little haggard. If a new daughter-in-law is really doing well, then She has a rosy face and a happy face. My sister-in-law was like this at the beginning. Is it true that the third brother can't see it or is he pretending that he can't?

Gu Xiuyuan replied: "My brother-in-law is good to her, but that doesn't mean that she has not been wronged. Wu'anbo Mansion has a large population and a lot of discord."

Gu Xiuming shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "You are all unfounded. The eldest sister was born in the Changxing Marquis House. My father is now in the holy family. Xuan Yi is his father's niece. How can the Wu'an House treat her harshly? "

Gu Xiuwen frowned and asked quietly: "Third brother seems to be very relieved about Wu Anbo's mansion?"

"I think there is nothing wrong with Wu Anbo's house." Gu Xiuming glanced at them and continued, "Is the eldest sister a person who can suffer a lot? If she was wronged, she would definitely complain to us when she returned to her parents' house. She said today that everything was fine. , and still have a loving relationship with my eldest brother-in-law, which proves that I am really not wronged."

Gu Xiuwen opened his mouth slightly, but for a moment he didn't know what to say, so he simply didn't argue with him about this issue.

Gu Xiuming's Qingyuxuan was not on the same road as their two brothers' courtyard. After parting ways with Gu Xiuming, Gu Xiuwen said to his brother: "Brother, after I went to Lingshan Academy to study, I didn't know much about the affairs at home. , you often meet with Third Brother at home, how do you think he behaves recently?"

"Why do you ask such a question?"

Gu Xiuyuan glanced at him inexplicably, and then said: "The third brother has seriously reflected on his behavior since he was banned from fighting with you and his second uncle, and has since changed his ways. He is filial to his elders and is very friendly to his brothers and sisters at home. , no different from usual.”

Gu Xiuwen asked again: "Then what does he think of Third Aunt?"

Gu Xiuyuan replied: "The third brother is also very filial to the third aunt. He goes to greet the third aunt every now and then. Now he is also a kind mother and a filial son."

Gu Xiuwen combined all the past and had doubts: "My fiancée became a mother, and people outside laughed at him, saying that his bride has become a new mother. He used to hate his third aunt so much, but he can really look down on her." If mother?"

Hearing this, Gu Xiuyuan shook his head slightly: "That's also the third bedroom's business. Our first bedroom has nothing to do with it, but you. What do you want to do with this?"

Gu Xiuwen said: "Brother, you can't say that. Third aunt is very good to me. When she gives things to second uncle, she also gives me a gift. Without third uncle, I still can't go to Lingshan Academy. If the third brother has a problem, I will definitely remind the third uncle and the third aunt and let them keep an eye on it."

Gu Xiuyuan was silent for a moment and replied: "As the minister of Dali Temple, Third Uncle has long been trained to have a sharp eye when facing so many prisoners. If Third Brother has any problem, can he not see it? Why do you need to worry about it? You just Study hard and don’t think about whether you have these things or not.”

Gu Xiuwen said disapprovingly: "Family affection can blind people. Treating prisoners is different from treating relatives."

As he spoke, he paused and looked around. Seeing that there was no one else around, he lowered his voice and said, "Brother, don't just think that it has nothing to do with you. If something bad happens to the third room, Our eldest house is also in bad luck, and now we are also taking advantage of the third house.”

Gu Xiuyuan was stunned. He looked at his younger brother with a serious and surprised look for the first time. He felt that his younger brother had changed after going to Lingshan Academy. He was much calmer and more sensible, and he had grown a lot. In the past, his younger brother would not have said this. Speaking of which, my younger brother only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun, including cockfighting, cricket fights, and parrot hunting. He was very patient when playing, but he couldn't sit still when he wanted to study.

Gu Xiuwen looked at him and reminded him: "Brother, if you want to pursue an official career in the future, can your father pave the way for you? In the end, it's not up to you to rely on your third uncle. If your third uncle is not good, let's not think about it. There are side branches of the Gu family. Those who are officials in the court can support each other, but how can those people be close to each other?"

Gu Xiuyuan looked at his younger brother intently for a while and said, "Fourth brother has grown up."

"I'm fifteen years old. I've grown up already. Many people have already become fathers at my age." Gu Xiuwen snorted, with a bit of arrogance on his expression. When his brother smiled, he smiled again. He said, "Grandma often said that a family should work together. If people are not united, the glory of the Gu family today will sooner or later cease to exist."

Gu Xiuyuan glared at him: "Now you know how to teach your brother a lesson?"

Gu Xiuwen chuckled and said, "How dare I? Brother, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do with my third uncle, so I won't tell you now."

Hearing this, Gu Xiuyuan looked astonished: "Fourth brother, haven't you always been afraid of Third Uncle? You're so good, why are you looking for Third Uncle?"

Gu Xiuwen sighed softly and said: "Xuan Yi got married. Although the academy gave me a holiday and asked me to come back for the wedding banquet, I still have homework to complete. Although the third uncle is so strict that it is scary, if I don't complete the homework well, Master What’s even scarier is that the masters at Lingshan Academy are much stricter than other masters. I was lucky enough to be punished twice, so I don’t dare to be perfunctory anymore. Brother, I won’t tell you anymore, I’m going to ask my third uncle for advice.”

After hearing this, Gu Xiuyuan glanced at him sympathetically and said, "What don't you understand? I'll explain it to you later."

Gu Xiuwen rolled his eyes at his brother: "What you said is not as good as what my third uncle said? Maybe you also know a little bit about it. I did my homework according to your instructions, but in the end I didn't do it well. When I got back, I had to be criticized by the master, and he gave me another note. If you fail, what should you do?”

As he spoke, his tone became more melancholy: "At the end of the year, there will be an assessment at the academy. My homework this time can be considered as my normal performance. If the assessment results are not very good, but my usual performance is good, Master can still consider it as appropriate and give me a passing grade. Otherwise, I probably have to pack up and get out. It doesn’t matter if I am embarrassed, but it will bring shame on my third uncle. After all, it was my third uncle who helped me through the back door in the first place."

"..."

Gu Xiuyuan was speechless and choked. This feeling of being despised by his own brother made him doubt his life. Did he not work hard enough? Are you really not good at school? Will he still have a role in Qiu Wei this time?
