Chapter 78 The Vicious Stepmother of the Republic of China (13)
"Gu Sanniang, come out!"
Gu Juren's old face turned red with anger after listening to the embellished story told by the servants of the Li family.
He prides himself on being a scholar and a noble scholar.
Even if the Qing Dynasty died and his fame no longer became his glory, he would still be proud of himself.
In order to prove that he was a scholar and that the Gu family was an innocent family with a family history of farming and studying, he raised his children strictly.
The Legend of Martyrs, Women's Rings, and many other rotten and almost rotten remarks were all poured into the minds of his daughters.
Previously, Gu Sanniang's sister-in-law was abused by her husband's family. The sister-in-law went home crying and begged her parents to make the decision, but she was kicked out by Gu Juren.
He said sternly: "When you marry, you obey your husband. Once you marry, you become a member of your husband's family. Your life and death will be decided by your husband's family."
The water thrown out by a married daughter.
To put it bluntly, if you are beaten and scolded by your mother-in-law for no reason, rejected by your husband, or beaten to death by your husband's family, that is your own life!
The sister-in-law was desperate and had no choice but to return to her husband's house and continue to suffer abuse.
This is because Gu Juren has a bad reputation of being "henpecked".
However, faced with the miserable plight of his own daughter, his legitimate wife, who had always been called a shrew, could only allow Gu Juren to be so cold and merciless.
So, why are you afraid of your wife?
However, the legitimate wife's past actions (abusing concubines, suppressing concubines, etc.) did not harm Gu Juren's interests.
Once his wife or his children affect Gu Juren, he will immediately use the dignity of a patriarch to suppress him!
Gu Sanniang's sister-in-law is still the victim. Gu Juren is unwilling to help her because of "etiquette".
On Gu Qingcheng's side, he "risked the disapproval of the world" by suing his wife against her husband, and even dared to take her son to live alone.
In the eyes of Gu Juren, such behavior is simply treason and appalling!
"Shame! What a shame!"
"Gu Sanniang, you bitch, you have really ruined the reputation of my Gu family."
"I tell you, you should go back to Li's house right now and beg your uncle for forgiveness."
"Gu Sanniang, are you listening? Are you still reading? It is a virtue for a woman to have no talent. I think you just know a few words, and that's why you lose your rules and don't abide by women's ways."
Gu Juren was so angry that his goatee was trembling.
Gu Qingcheng, who was sitting in the room, still read the book carefully and ignored his outburst.
"What is the virtue of a woman without talent? The classics of the saints have been deliberately misinterpreted by you people who have forgotten their ancestors."
Gu Qingcheng finally put down the D document in his hand and looked at Gu Juren coldly.
In Gu Qingcheng's opinion, people like Gu Juren are not qualified to be scholars.
You know, in Gu Qingcheng's era, what was emphasized was the Six Arts of a Gentleman.
Scholars are not rigid, nor pedantic, nor weak.
A true scholar can mount a horse to kill the enemy and dismount to govern the country.
As for "taking care of people", their thoughts have been imprisoned by the eight-part essay.
Apart from studying the classics by picking out the words, they do not have the characteristics of scholars at all.
waste!
Psychologically distorted, inferior and arrogant trash!
Gu Qingcheng cursed in his heart, with obvious disdain on his face.
"I forget my ancestors when I read the classics? You, you dare to scold me and forget my ancestors when I count the classics?"
Gu Juren was trembling all over, as if he had Parkinson's disease.
Gu Qingcheng ignored Gu Juren's words and suddenly asked, "Gu Juren, why don't you cut off your braids?"
It's just a little bit like a sheep's tail, and it doesn't look right.
"You bastard! Your body and skin are affected by your parents, so how can you break your hair so easily?" Gu Juren said confidently.
Gu Qingcheng smiled and pointed at the bald part of Gu Juren's front part, "My parents have affected my body and skin, so why did you shave your head?"
Since you want to talk about "filial piety", then don't shave your head.
"Youhun said, do you know the rules of my Qing Dynasty?"
If you don’t shave your head, you will lose your head!
Gu Qingcheng gave a faint reminder, "He died early in the morning!"
Gu Juren:......
This sentence is too destructive.
Because of his fame, Gu Juren was definitely the most loyal supporter of the former Qing Dynasty.
And Gu Qingcheng's words "I died early in the morning" were like stabbing Gu Juren in the heart with force.
Gulu! Gulu!
There was a strange sound in Gu Juren's throat, and his mouth tasted like rust.
"You mean maid! You are an unfilial daughter! I should have drowned you in a piss bucket back then."
"Died early in the morning!"
Gu Qingcheng seemed to be a repeater, repeating this sentence over and over again.
Gu Juren's fingers were shaking and shaking, and his brain was feeling dizzy.
Finally, he couldn't hold it any longer and shook his sleeves vigorously, "Huh! You bitch! You can never say that you are a family man from now on!"
"Gu Juren, I think you deserve to be expelled from the Gu family! I, the Gu family, am the most particular about character, and you are not worthy!"
When Gu Qingcheng said this, he deliberately glanced at Gu Juren's thin and short braid.
The irony is not too strong at all.
Plop!
Gu Juren was so angry that Gu Qingcheng fainted.
"Huh, that's it?"
You can't even listen to a few humiliating words, and you still dare to claim to be a noble person?
If you want to be superior to others, you must be able to bend and stretch, and endure what ordinary people cannot endure.
And Gu Juren, tsk, is just a rookie.
Huoshui: ...This is the original owner's biological father. You deliberately make this person faint, okay?
It is said that the ancients were not the most particular about filial piety.
Gu Qingcheng, an ancient native, had absolutely no sense of being a son when he criticized his own father.
"Filial piety? It was also castrated by future generations."
After hearing Huoshui's complaints, Gu Qingcheng, a pure ancient man, said: "What we emphasize is that the father is kind and the son is filial. If the father is not kind, the son can be unfilial!"
The ancients were also reasonable and did not blindly make people foolishly filial and foolishly loyal.
“Why repay kindness with kindness? It’s the same principle!”
Gu Qingcheng said casually to Huoshui.
Then, she found two big soldiers she had borrowed from Ma Yong, gave them a silver dollar, and asked them to send Gu Juren back home.
She asked the big-headed soldier for help, which has two meanings -
The first is, of course, literally helping, lifting someone up.
The second is "the fox pretends to be the tiger's power".
Gu Juren only relied on his so-called "paternal authority" to have the courage to come and make noise.
Gu Qingcheng refused to accept this trick and even used large-scale soldiers carrying guns.
When Gu Juren wakes up, he will know what to do.
He is not a person with integrity. If he really had the integrity of a scholar, he would not allow others to bully his children on the grounds of etiquette!
Why didn't he dare to go to his in-laws to make decisions for his legitimate daughter?
Isn’t it because the legitimate daughter’s father-in-law is the chief security officer, and the family has more than 20 nursing homes and three or four guns?
People like Gu Juren talk about benevolence, justice and morality, but in reality they bully the weak and fear the strong, and are shameless and despicable.
After being scolded by Gu Qingcheng until he fainted, and then being sent back by the soldiers, he will know that the little concubine who was once at his mercy is no longer a ruthless person that he can mess with.
From now on, even if Li Jiye comes to bewitch him again, Gu Juren will not dare to come again.
"We still have to get out of here!"
Although Gu Juren was stunned by the scolding, the small county town will still have troubles.
Li Jiye may even turn into a demon.
And the money in her hand is too eye-catching.
Ma Yong has successively sold out the shops and fertile land he obtained in the county.
In a few days, he should be leaving with his troops.
Once Ma Yong leaves, if Gu Qingcheng still stays in the county, someone will definitely plot against him.
Although she was a little reluctant to leave Hans, haha, don’t get me wrong, she didn’t have a good impression of these red-haired and green-eyed people.
It's just a simple reluctance to give up the knowledge that others have.
Gu Qingcheng discovered that not only could Hans teach her the D language, he was also proficient in pharmacology.
It is said that before becoming a monk, he was a top student in a medical college.
Western medicine seems to be ahead of traditional Chinese medicine.
Gu Qingcheng will not belittle herself, but she will not be blindly arrogant either.
Everyone, every country, has something to learn.
Gu Qingcheng is very sober. When she realizes her shortcomings, she will try her best to catch up.
"Forget it, safety still matters."
Gu Qingcheng thought for a long time and finally made a choice.
"Besides, there are bigger churches in the provincial capital, and there should be more foreigners."
Gu Qingcheng could definitely "do the same thing" and learn from the foreign monks in the provincial capital.
"Ms. Gu, this is your share!"
On this day, Ma Yong came to the inn carrying a box.
Opening the lid of the box revealed envelope after envelope of silver coins.
One hundred yuan per letter, five letters in total.
"Five hundred dollars, you count!"
Ma Yong was very generous. Instead of deducting the money, he made up for it this time, giving Gu Qingcheng a round figure.
"No need to count, I believe in the general!"
Gu Qingcheng always addressed Ma Yong as a general, not a commander.
This makes Ma Yong both novel and useful.
It seems that he is not some off-brand warlord, but an orthodox general.
"I'm leaving tomorrow. Ms. Gu, do you want to come with me?"
Ma Yong habitually avoided Gu Qingcheng's face.
Ahem, he really either disliked it or couldn't stand the bruises and redness.
Although these days have passed, the scars on Gu Qingcheng's face are slowly receding.
But the first impression was so profound that when Ma Yong saw Gu Qingcheng, he would think of her as swollen as a pig's head.
"Then that's a problem, General!"
Of course she wanted to go to the provincial capital with Ma Yong. It would be safer this way.
I also saved money on hiring an escort.
"Okay! Meet at the county train station at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
Ma Yong brought 300 people to collect food and wages. After getting the money, Ma Yong generously bought a train wagon.
"Okay, thank you General."
Gu Qingcheng also wanted to take a train ride to see if this horseless carriage was really as fast and convenient as the newspapers said.
After leaving the inn and returning to his temporary residence, Ma Yong saw his adjutant running in before he could sit down and take a sip of tea.
"Commander! The warlord is calling!"
Ma Yong didn't even reach out. He didn't recognize what he was looking at.
"read!"
Ma Yong gave the order directly.
"yes!"
The adjutant first read a few words of the telegram, then hesitated and said, "What about that? The warlord also said that he wants to act as a matchmaker for you."
"The woman is the daughter of a textile factory in the provincial capital. I heard she has studied abroad. She is a real foreign student."
