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

Shou'an Hall.

Mrs. Gu held the scissors in her hand and slowly trimmed the potted plants she had planted. When she heard footsteps coming in, she just raised her head and said, "Yao Ling is here." Then she continued to trim the potted plants.

Gu Jingxi did not disturb his mother's leisurely mood. He bowed to his mother, then sat aside and waited.

After a while, Mrs. Gu finished pruning the potted plants, put down the scissors, and sat down at the head of her son. Seeing that her son looked tired, obviously because he had not had a good rest recently, she asked with concern: "Yao Ling, You look haggard, have you been very busy recently?"

Gu Jingxi avoided the important matter and answered lightly: "I was a little busy when I encountered a difficult case, but it's over. Why did mother come to see me?"

Mrs. Gu didn't want to beat around the bush, and went straight to the point: "Yao Ling, I remember that the headmaster of Lingshan Academy and you have been friends for many years."

"Chief Xu Shan and I have indeed been friends for many years." Gu Jingxi nodded gently, "Why did mother suddenly mention this matter?"

Mrs. Gu replied: "Lingshan Academy has recently admitted students, and I have a general understanding. This time, the children recruited are all children between ten and fifteen years old. Doesn't our family's literary studies happen to be fifteen years old?"

As she spoke, she glanced at her son and knew that he was not the kind of person who likes to open the back door for others, so she added: "Yao Ling, Xiuwen cannot continue to raise this child by your sister-in-law's side, otherwise he will be spoiled by her sooner or later. This child He is smart and a good scholar, but your sister-in-law is too pampered and has made this child only know how to have fun, cannot endure hardship, and is lazy in studies."

Gu Jingxi was silent for a while and then asked: "Mom, I have been busy these days and have not paid attention to the affairs of the house. Did something happen?"

Mrs. Gu told her son what happened in the morning, and finally said with regret: "You said that Xuan Yi is a good child, but your sister-in-law has developed this temperament. If this continues, Xiu Wen may also be raised in a crooked way. Go away. Lingshan Academy is good. It's far away from home and he can't go home often, so let him study there peacefully. The classmates around him are all excellent people, and he will gradually improve under the influence of the environment."

Gu Jingxi was surprised, but she didn't know that her eldest niece, who usually seemed well-behaved and sensible, had such a temperament. Every time her eldest niece saw her, she was very well-behaved.

Seeing that her son seemed a little unbelievable, Mrs. Gu said: "I have never mentioned the matter between the girls to you before, and you are usually busy with official duties and don't pay much attention to the younger generation, so I mean you will occasionally test your homework. , it’s normal not to understand Xuan Yi.”

She said earnestly: "Yao Ling, the rise and fall of the next generation of our Hou family will depend on these children. If these children are not raised well, when you grow old, the Gu family will decline again. Xiuwen is just a little lazy, but He is smart and astute, and my husband once praised his articles. He told me at that time that I rewarded him with a set of four treasures of the study. What a pity it would be if this child was raised crookedly and ended up doing nothing."

Hearing this, Gu Jingxi pondered for a moment and nodded in response: "Mother, Chief Xu Shan is in the capital now. I will take a break in two days and take Xiuwen to visit Chief Xu."

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, then I'll trouble Yao Ling."

Gu Jingxi said warmly: "Mom, you don't have to be polite, it's just a trivial matter. I can help him get into Lingshan Academy, but if he doesn't study hard at Lingshan Academy and fails the exam, he will still be dismissed."

Mrs. Gu was not worried about this and replied: "Environment can change people. He is just used to be lazy. Seeing the classmates around him studying hard will also be subconsciously affected. Besides, smart children can learn twice the result with half the effort."

Gu Jingxi was stunned: "Mother has confidence in him."

Mrs. Gu smiled and said, "I watched this child grow up, and I know his temperament well."

Listening to this, Gu Jingxi also had some expectations for his nephew's performance. If he could really make progress, it would be worthwhile to find connections to open a back door for him. If he went in and messed around, it would really embarrass the Gu family.

Mrs. Gu glanced at the sky outside the window. It was already sunset, and it would be twilight soon. She turned to look at her son, and asked warmly: "Yao Ling, it's dinner time later, why don't you stay and have dinner together?" I specially asked the kitchen to add a few dishes you like."

Gu Jingxi apologized: "I have to live up to my mother's kindness this time."

Madam Gu was shocked. Her son would never reject her in the past, so why did he reject her so simply this time? Thinking that he was forgetting to eat and sleep because of official duties, he immediately frowned and scolded with a straight face: "You still have something to be busy with? No matter how busy you are, you have to eat. You are not a tough guy. You don't pay attention to your health when you are old. When you get older, With your age, you have a lot of old problems, and if you are tormented by a lot of problems, you will know that you are wrong if you are going to die."

Gu Jingxi shook his head slightly and smiled: "No, I promised your daughter-in-law that I will go back to have dinner with her later, so I can only live up to my mother's kindness."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Gu was stunned, her eyes soon brightened, and her brows were filled with joy. This is really a good thing. Her daughter-in-law took the initiative to invite her, and her son responded thoughtfully, which proved that these two young people got along well. These days, I have some feelings.

Mrs. Gu looked at her son, who was nearly thirty years old, and couldn't help but blushing. She nodded repeatedly and choked up: "Okay, this is great. Seeing that you and your husband are harmonious, you will have someone to accompany you for the rest of your life. Even if your mother leaves now, I can walk with peace of mind.”

Gu Jingxi said warmly: "Mother, don't talk nonsense, you will live a long life."

"Whether you live a long life or not, it's not important to me. What's important is that the younger generation has a future, the family is harmonious, and you have someone to accompany you." Mrs. Gu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, smiled warmly and lovingly, and warned softly. , "Ayao is still young. A girl at this age has just started to have a love interest. She needs a man to obey and pamper her. You should accommodate her more, make her happy, and spend more time with her, so that the relationship between husband and wife will be good."

Gu Jingxi was silent. He didn't think that the little girl needed his coaxing. The little girl was clear-headed, wise and independent, and she was not the kind of girl who liked to listen to sweet talk.

Besides, he couldn't say those sweet words. They had no feelings at all. Saying sweet words to other girls, what's the difference between that and a slut teasing a decent woman?

When Mrs. Gu saw that he didn't speak, she knew that he definitely disagreed with her words and glared at him: "Don't believe it, you have never been with the girl's family before, so you don't understand the little girl's thoughts, but the mother came here from a little girl. , understands the little girl’s thoughts best.”

Gu Jingxi didn't want to argue with his mother, so he smiled and said, "Son, I believe it."
