Chapter 258 The Blind Wife of the Chief Assistant's Family (8)
He, Mu Huaiying, was a noble person who did not bend down for money. However, her original body was a piece of copper plate broken into several pieces of flowers. He looked down upon her for buckling and knotting, and criticized her as an ignorant market woman who only cares about money.
Gu Mo did not give everything delicious and well-dressed to Mu Huaiying first, as in the original plot, making himself like a refugee and raising Mu Huaiying as a young master.
She had no such awareness, and neither did Dr. Gu, who loved his biological daughter.
Every time Mu Huaiying pretended to be pitiful, she would expose him in front of Dr. Gu, so she would not let Dr. Gu die for Mu Huaiying.
You must know that some sacrifices become a habit and the other party will take it for granted.
So now Mu Huaiying doesn't have the same treatment as in the original plot. He doesn't touch the spring water with his fingers and only reads the books of sages. With Gu Mo watching, it is very difficult for him to even enslave Doctor Gu.
Mu Huaiying saw Gu Mo's harsh words, his lips moved a few times, and his face looked a little ugly.
He considers himself a scholar, so naturally he doesn't bother to do these tasks. In the past, he would leave them to Dr. Gu to wash when Gu Mo wasn't paying attention.
I happened to see Gu Mo washing it today, so I naturally took it out.
Moreover, Gu Mo is a woman, isn’t it the right thing for her to do these jobs?
"Sister Mo, did I do something wrong? Why do you always dislike me?"
Gu Mo was too lazy to pay attention to him and continued to rub his clothes.
Mu Huaiying's eyes were slightly red and her voice was choked.
"My mother passed away, and the only relative in the world who loved me and loved me is gone. I, I..."
Gu Mo, "..."
What a pitiful show of pretense.
If he were his original self, he would be filled with motherly love, hug this poor child and comfort him, and then, not to mention doing laundry, he would go through fire and water for him right away.
But Gu Mo...?
Pity you?
What are you thinking? Saonian, it would be fine if I didn’t beat you to death.
"Then you are indeed quite pitiful, but compared to those little beggars living on the street without a father or mother, aren't you much worse off? At least my father adopted you, and you didn't go to the streets to beg for food."
"..." Mu Huaiying choked and complained, "...Sister Mo, you have changed..."
His tone sounded like he had been greatly wronged and was waiting for Gu Mo to comfort him.
Gu Mo didn't want to coax her, since she couldn't see anyway, so Mu Huaiying's play was just for the blind.
Mu Huaiying looked at Gu Mo and pretended to be deaf and mute, feeling very frustrated.
But he was a very good showman, so he continued to say aggrievedly:
"Sister Mo, I heard the neighbors talking about me and the Gu family living under the same roof even though we are not related by blood. This is detrimental to Sister Mo's reputation..."
Gu Mo said insensitively.
Mu Huaiying, "For the sake of Sister Mo's reputation, can Sister Mo tell others that we are cousins in the future?"
He just didn’t want Gu Mo to tell people in the hospital every day that he was kindly picked up by Dr. Gu, as if he owed the Gu family a lot of kindness.
Well, if Gu Mo didn't say anything, he still acted like he was doing it for Gu Mo's good.
He was beating around the bush with Gu Mo, but Gu Mo pretended he didn't understand.
"You and I are not cousins in the first place, and you and I have never acted in any arrogant way. How can it harm my reputation? My neighbors are also very kind to me."
Mu Huaiying, "Those people bully Sister Mo because she cannot see, they say good things about Sister Mo, but they don't know how to arrange Sister Mo in private..."
Gu Mo, "I'm not afraid, whatever they say."
Mu Huaiying took a deep breath and said, "Sister Mo, you and I are not young anymore. We have to follow the rules of men and women. Now we live under the same roof and are close to each other. If we don't talk about your reputation, I'm afraid it will also affect Gu.
The reputation of Shuhe Medical Clinic..."
"You are really thoughtful." Gu Mo interrupted him and nodded.
Mu Huaiying thought she understood, but she heard Gu Mo say: "Since we have to follow the rules of men and women and not get too close, then you can move out so that those people can't talk nonsense."
Gu Mo even thought of a place for him to live, "There is a small ruined temple in the east of the city that no one cares about. You go and clean it up so that it can still be lived in."
Mu Huaiying gritted her teeth, "I can't bear to leave Sister Mo and Uncle Gu."
He wanted to leave the Gu family, but if he left, who would support his studies? Who would give him money to buy pens, ink, paper and inkstones to socialize with his classmates?
Gu Mo, "It's okay, we will visit you often. Are you embarrassed to mention this to dad? I'll just go and tell dad."
Mu Huaiying was really panicked. He had fooled Doctor Gu several times, but Doctor Gu always had to listen to his daughter at critical moments.
If Gu Mo really went to Dr. Gu to talk about this matter, maybe Dr. Gu would really kick him out.
He quickly reached out and grabbed Gu Mo, "Sister Mo, don't drive me away!"
Gu Mo pushed his hand away, "You said it yourself, we have to follow the precautions between men and women. Now if you don't leave, do you want me to leave? You live in my house, why do you want me to retreat for the so-called reputation? You have to retreat.
It’s you who retreat.”
When Mu Huaiying saw her speaking harshly, she seemed a little panicked and her voice was pitiful, "Sister Mo, don't be angry. I didn't think about it that way. Don't drive me away..."
"Then you have to be obedient. Our family is not a freeloader. We do nothing but want the best. There is no such good thing in the world, what do you think?"
To put it mildly, Mu Huaiying is just a pretty boy who feeds on soft food, but he doesn't have the self-consciousness of a pretty boy. He is as aloof as if the Gu family is trying to be nice to him.
"Sister Mo, I understand..."
He squatted down in front of the wooden basin and washed his own clothes. He looked well-behaved, but his face was very ugly.
The current life is different from what he thought, and it is also different from what his mother thought.
He still remembered what his mother said in his ear before she died, when Doctor Gu was not around.
The mother said: "Huaiying, my mother will no longer be able to protect you. You are so talented. If no one supports you, you will not be able to continue studying in the future. It is really buried. My mother plans to beg for help with an old face before she dies.
Doctor, let him adopt you..."
"Doctor Gu knows medical skills and has a lot of skills. As long as the flood is over, he can start over wherever he goes. He is also kind-hearted. If my mother begs him to accept you as her adopted son, he will definitely be willing..."
Yes, Mu's mother's plan at first was just to get Dr. Gu to accept Mu Huaiying as his adopted son.
But Dr. Gu refused, so Mu Mu retreated and came up with a second plan, saying that Mu Huaiying would marry Gu Mo when she grew up.
That night Mother Mu said: "That Miss Gu is disabled. If Dr. Gu can get a son-in-law like you, I'm afraid he will be ecstatic. Let alone raising you, even if he supports you as the top scorer in high school, he will have no complaints."
regret……"
"Mom knows that such a woman is really not worthy of my son. You hold off for now and wait until after high school. If that doesn't work, just marry her for the time being. If you have a future, just give her a sum of money and a divorce note.
, you were an official of the imperial court at that time, what could she, a blind woman, do to you?
