As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Remove Xiu Ming from the clan?

This is a big deal. Under normal circumstances, children of the family will not be removed from the clan easily, unless they make a big mistake and are spurned by the clan, becoming a street rat that everyone calls for beating.

However, Xiu Ming committed a heinous crime, and there were very good reasons for expelling him from the clan. Such a piece of mouse shit brought shame to the family. When others mentioned their Gu family, they would also mention the person who was framed for the crime. The treacherous son whose mother was famous in the capital was now abuzz in the capital. The Changxing Marquis Mansion was really responsible for the ridicule in the capital for a whole year because of this treacherous son. The tribesmen who separated from the family would occasionally be teased.

Therefore, Mrs. Gu Er immediately agreed and made the final decision: "I agree with Yao Ling's proposal. As a child of the Gu family, I have learned the family motto since I was a child. I should know the family motto of the Gu family. Loyalty and filial piety are the first. He is so rebellious." He is an unfilial person and unworthy of being a son of the Gu family, so he should be removed from the family."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the nephews who came with him: "What do you think?"

"That's what the second uncle said."

"This kind of unfilial son is punished even by the emperor. He really brings shame to our family!"

"That's right, this criminal has read the books of saints and sages over the years and read them into the dog's belly. Just remove him from the clan."

The most senior Mr. Gu Er agreed, and the other elders naturally had no objections and nodded in agreement. At the same time, they also criticized Gu Xiuming's actions.

Gu Jingxi worked hard to raise a son for so many years, but in the end he raised a lonely son. The son was a rebellious son and was sentenced to exile. Now he has been expelled from the clan. From now on, the Gu family will no longer have Xiu Ming.

For this reason, the elders tried to comfort him.

Mr. Gu Er's eyes fell on Gu Jingxi. He was old and his eyesight was not good enough. His face was a little blurry when he saw the other person's face, but he could tell from his outline that he was handsome. He felt sorry for him. Yao Ling had been smart since he was a child. He is also knowledgeable and talented. If it were not for his incompetence in that area, his children would be around him by now.

While the old man felt regretful, he also thought that he now had no son, so he said: "Yao Ling, there are many outstanding children in the clan. If you are willing, you can also choose another child from the clan. It just so happens that your wife is also young. Have the energy to take care of the kids.”

After the words fell, several people's minds became active, and their eyes looked at Gu Jingxi with a little more eagerness, because they also had juniors in their families, and if they could be adopted by Yao Ling, they would be the heir apparent of the Hou family.

Not only them, but also Gu Jingsheng had some ideas. Of his two sons, the eldest son Xiu Yuan would definitely not be adopted. That time, his son Xiu Wen could be adopted. He and his third brother were brothers, and his son was the third brother's biological brother. Nephew, a biological nephew who grew up under his watch, is always closer than a cousin.

Gu Jingxi replied warmly: "Second uncle, I don't think about the child yet. Let's discuss this later."

Mrs. Gu Er thought that he had a psychological shadow now and did not dare to have any more children for the time being, so he stopped mentioning it and said, "When do you want a child? You can discuss it with everyone and choose the one you like."

Gu Jingxi nodded and said, "Okay."

It was agreed upon when Gu Xiuming was removed from the clan, and everyone went to the ancestral hall to resolve the matter. Later, they sent letters to the Gu family members who were officials in other places or lived in their ancestral home to inform them of the matter.

From then on, the Changxing Hou Mansion no longer had the third son Gu Xiuming, and the Gu family no longer had Gu Xiuming. Gu Xiuwen's ranking among the grandchildren of the Hou Mansion moved up by one, and the fourth son Gu became the new Gu The third son, originally the fourth brother of the two younger sisters in the family, is now the third brother.

At noon, several elders stayed for lunch, and the three brothers Gu Jingxi accompanied the elders. After lunch and chatting for a while, the elders went back home.

Gu Jingsheng patted Gu Jingxi's shoulder and said comfortingly: "Third brother, don't think too much about Xiu Ming. He was originally a cousin. There is already a layer of separation between cousins ​​and nephews. The relationship is a lot estranged. It's normal for them not to be familiar with each other. .”

When he finished speaking, Gu Jingsong suddenly turned his eyes to him. His words almost made it clear that only his nephews could raise him to maturity, and the third brother only had three nephews. Among these three nephews, only Xiuwen had a chance, and the eldest son would not be able to succeed him. , Xiuyuan is the eldest son, it is impossible to adopt, Xiu Hong is the eldest son and only son, it is impossible to adopt.

For a moment, Gu Jingsong envied his elder brother for having many children, a legitimate eldest son, and then a pair of twins came along, and he only had a son and a daughter. If he had more than one son, he would have some chance. That's all, it's fate. He and his wife are both in their thirties, so don't worry about the children.

Gu Jingxi also heard the implication of his brother's words and responded quietly: "Brother, don't worry, I can take it easy. What happened today also delayed the two brothers' business, I'm really sorry."

Gu Jingsong replied: "It would be great if my third brother could start watching. In fact, we didn't delay anything."

The three brothers exchanged pleasantries before returning to their respective courtyards.

Meng Jinyao knew early this morning that her husband had invited the clan elders to come over to discuss removing Gu Xiuming from the clan. When she saw Gu Jingxi coming back, she immediately asked: "Husband, how are you doing?"

Gu Jingxi said: "Now we have no children."

Hearing this, Meng Jinyao knew that the clan elders agreed to this decision. There was one question she had not had time to ask in the morning, so now she asked: "Husband, Xiu Ming has been sentenced to exile in Yazhou, and he will never come back in this life. Why are you doing this?" Thinking of removing him from the clan?"

Gu Jingxi said truthfully: "First of all, what he did is no longer worthy of being the son of the Gu family; secondly, our eldest son's place cannot be taken by an unfilial son; finally, I don't want to be a father to an unfaithful son."

Meng Jinyao's eyes lit up and her voice smiled: "I don't want to be the mother of a rebellious son." She said, looking at him eagerly and asked, "Husband, when will we have a child? I don't have anything big to do now, so I have time to take care of the child. ”

Gu Jingxi smiled and asked, "Ayao likes children that much?"

Meng Jinyao nodded repeatedly: "I like it. Having a child can bring more fun. I usually have nothing to do. It would be nice to have a child to give me the experience of being a husband and raising children."

After listening, a trace of guilt flashed across Gu Jingxi's eyes. Ayao likes children so much, but he...

Is that quack doctor named Wen good?

He held her in his arms and said softly: "Ayao, can we wait a little longer?"

Meng Jinyao didn't think much about it, she just thought that because of Gu Xiuming's past experience, he had a shadow on the adoption of children, and he probably wouldn't want children for a while, so she raised her head, looked at him with a smile, and immediately started talking. Turn: "Okay, let's wait a few more years. In fact, I just said it casually. Thinking about it, I'm still young and shouldn't be around my children every day."

Gu Jingxi lowered his head and rubbed his forehead with hers. His voice was gentle and firm: "Ayao, we will have a child, a child who belongs to us."

Meng Jinyao laughed softly: "Our child must belong to us. Could it be that it belongs to someone else?"

Gu Jingxi didn't explain. He looked at the little wife in his arms who was smiling like a flower. Her eyes became gentler and her expression became gentler.

For the sake of his and A-Yao's future, he decided to continue to believe in the quack's medical skills. Even if the quack's medical skills didn't work, they would work!
