Chapter 81: Eldest Brother

~11 min read 2,039 words

"Sister, then I will invite the Marquis over, our two families must speak clearly for the sake of the children," Madam Bai said.

"Madam, at the latest tomorrow, I, Gu Tingyu, will definitely give an explanation."

"Good, Brother Yu, still put your body first, autumn examination is paramount."

After the three finished speaking, they walked out together; this only took about two quarters of an hour in the Xu residence.

In Anmei's courtyard, Gu Tingyi and Anmei waved goodbye reluctantly, waved to the cat again, and then were carried away from the Xu residence by Chang Mama.

At lunchtime, the three Xu brothers knew the result, just waiting for an explanation today or tomorrow.

After so many things happened, Xu Pingmei had no heart to continue embroidering her dowry after the meal, and sat in the courtyard blankly holding an embroidery manual.

At this time, Qingxia persuaded from the side:

"Da Niangzi, this is also for your own good. If you really go to the Gu family, and their young master is so rude and uneducated, we can't say anything, after all, it's just a maid. But it's your face that's being slapped."

"Hmm, I know. Is Qingzhi any better?"

"She cried a few times last night, but didn't make a sound, only knew how to shed tears, and her eyes are still swollen this morning."

"Do you think the Gu family will punish them for me?"

"Da Niangzi, it's their own family style that is not right, not punishing them for you! You can't say it like this in the future! Nowadays, the Xu family's girls are not unable to marry. Besides, if the two families really marry in the future, their small branch is like this, in the future you will be..."

You and Gu Tingyu's children will suffer.

Qingxia didn't continue, after all, they were not married yet.

Madam Bai and Gu Tingyu took two carriages back to the Ningyuan Marquis mansion.

In the carriage, Gu Tingyu hadn't slept all night, and at this time couldn't help but fall asleep.

About half an hour or so.

The carriage arrived at the second gate of the Ningyuan Marquis mansion.

After getting off the carriage, Chang Mama led Gu Tingyi behind Madam Bai.

At the entrance, Madam Bai saw that the maid in her courtyard had a somewhat wrong expression.

Gu Tingyu, who was yawning and being supported by Youqing, also felt that the atmosphere in the mansion was somewhat unusual.

The servants looked at Madam Bai with some unclear expressions.

Arriving at the back courtyard, Madam Bai knew the reason.

In the main hall of the courtyard, sat a woman who looked like a weak willow in the wind.

Madam Bai walked to the door of the main hall,

she looked over and saw that this woman had a beautiful face, a shy expression, and bruises on her neck, and her eyes were full of charm as they turned.

Any woman could see that this woman must have had intercourse with someone last night and was very happy.

Seeing this scene, Madam Bai was somewhat furious, dizzy and dizzy.

Seeing Madam Bai approaching, the woman stood up in a hurry.

Madam Bai felt a blockage in her chest, as if a stone had smashed into her heart.

Gu Yankai's long-term attendant, Qi Sheng, at the door, almost stuffed his face into his crotch, not daring to look at Madam Bai at all.

Gu Tingyu followed Madam Bai into the courtyard.

He looked at the woman in the main hall, his eyes condensed, and there was a look of memory in his eyes, then he understood, as if he remembered something.

Where his father went last night, there was a conclusion.

He lowered his head and closed his eyes, as if he was doing some psychological construction.

Then Gu Tingyu raised his head, only to see needles sticking out of his eyes, his face flushed, his breathing becoming more and more rapid, his throat rattling, and his hands in his sleeves were also trembling in fists.

This was a manifestation of extreme anger.

Walking a few steps toward the main hall, Gu Tingyu felt his eyes go black, his throat sweet,

before losing consciousness, Gu Tingyu vaguely heard his third sister shout extremely distressed: "Eldest Brother!"

Madam Bai hadn't reacted yet, only hearing a thud behind her.

Everyone was attracted by this sound.

Qi Sheng reacted the fastest, hurriedly walked a few steps, and together with Youqing supported Gu Tingyu, but Gu Tingyu's mouth was full of blood, and he was already unconscious.

Youqing shouted anxiously: "Young Master, Young Master, wake up!"

"Eldest Brother, Eldest Brother, what's wrong with you?" Gu Tingyi shouted anxiously, the little child's face already full of tears.

Gu Yankai was also sitting in the main hall, just now he didn't dare to look at Madam Bai.

After this happened, he raised his head, stood up instantly, and walked out full of anger, saying as he walked:

"Yu'er! What's wrong with you!!! Someone, go find the imperial physician quickly!"

After speaking, he glared at Madam Bai and said:

"You! Is this how you look after him? Ah!!? He's vomiting blood!"

Because Gu Tingyu fainted, Madam Bai's eyes were full of panic.

But upon hearing Gu Yankai's words, she closed her eyes, breathed deeply, and didn't say anything, only her chest heaving violently.

Supporting Gu Tingyu to the couch in the main hall, Gu Tingyu slowly woke up,

"Yu'er, what's wrong with you? Tell me, I'm here," Gu Yankai said worriedly.

Madam Bai watched all this with a straight face, still not saying anything, not knowing if she was frightened or didn't want to speak.

She looked at the young woman who didn't speak in the hall, curled her lips, and a sneer of sarcasm flashed by.

Gu Yankai looked at Madam Bai's indifference, his nameless anger grew, and he shouted loudly:

"What are you still doing here? Go find the imperial physician!"

"Father! You can't yell at Mother!"

The sensible Gu Tingyi shouted with pearl-sized tears flowing.

This shout made Gu Yankai dumb.

"Da Niangzi, the Marquis is not yelling at your mother."

The woman said softly and even squatted down, wanting to hug Gu Tingyi.

Seeing the woman's move, Madam Bai shouted angrily:

"You dare to touch her? Get out!"

Gu Yankai frowned and said: "How are you talking?"

"I am the Gu family Madam, can't I speak?"

Chang Mama also went up and pushed the woman, so as not to let her contaminate Gu Tingyi.

Gu Tingyi ignored the woman.

At this time, Madam Bai squatted down, and Gu Tingyi ran a few steps and came into Madam Bai's embrace.

The mother and daughter didn't say anything, and Madam Bai hugged her and walked out.

"Where are you going? Didn't you see Yu'er like this?" Gu Yankai yelled angrily.

"Naturally, to invite the imperial physician for the eldest young master."

When leaving the main hall, Gu Tingye was panting as he arrived at the door.

"Mother, what's wrong?" he asked.

Madam Bai didn't say anything, pulled him and walked out.

Gu Tingye kept looking back at his eldest brother and father in the main hall as he walked.

The woman in the hall watched all this, stood up softly, and said softly:

"Marquis, the eldest young lady misunderstood the slave's meaning. It is, it is, it is the slave who caused such big trouble for the Marquis mansion, the slave, should still leave."

Gu Tingyu felt nauseous seeing this scene, he closed his eyes painfully, and shouted: "Youqing, Youqing!"

"Young Master!"

"Support me back to Fuyao Courtyard."

Gu Yankai said:

"Back to what Fuyao Courtyard, wait here for the imperial physician to come."

"Father, I... want... to... return... to... Fuyao... Courtyard," Gu Tingyu said word by word.

"Marquis, the eldest young master naturally has his own ideas, why must the Marquis..." the woman hadn't finished speaking.

"Shut up!" Gu Tingyu shouted loudly at the woman.

"I don't want to dirty my ears!"

Hearing Gu Tingyu's shout, the woman looked at Gu Yankai aggrievedly.

At this time, Youqing walked in,

Gu Tingyu stretched out his hand, and was then carried away from the main hall by Youqing.

Gu Tingyu had never spoken to Gu Yankai in this tone, which surprised Gu Yankai.

At this very moment, Gu Yankai's fifth brother, Gu Lun, came to the courtyard where Gu Yankai was with a panicked expression,

shouting in his mouth:

"Eldest Brother! Eldest Brother! Are you back? You must make the decision for your younger brother! Our Yang'er is about to be strangled to death! Our Gu family is about to be bullied to death! Eldest Brother!"

Behind Gu Lun followed his crying wife.

He arrived at the main hall and saw the woman in the hall; Gu Lun's eyes condensed, he looked at the woman, and turned to look at his eldest brother.

His wife also temporarily stopped crying, looking at the woman in the hall with curiosity.

Then she didn't care about so much, and continued:

"Eldest Brother, yesterday our Yang'er was sent back, saying he drank too much wine, today he woke up and I only then knew, he was strangled to fainting by someone!"

"What?!!!"

Gu Yankai asked in shock.

Gu Lun said:

"Eldest Brother, yesterday Yang'er went to the Xu residence for a banquet, that Xu Zaijing relied on his strength, saying he was playing with our Yang'er!

As a result, he directly strangled him until he fainted, what kind of hatred is this!

Today, today Yang'er woke up and it was difficult to speak, really... how can he bully people like this!"

As he spoke, Gu Lun actually cried.

"I have also heard of the fierce reputation of the fifth young master of the Xu family in the market, I didn't expect him to strangle people for fun," the woman said with a worried expression.

"I know the fifth young master of the Xu family, he is a sensible child, how could he bully our Yang'er for no reason?" Gu Yankai asked.

"This Yang'er didn't say, but no matter what, we are guests when we go to his house, how can he treat guests like this?"

"Please, Eldest Brother, make the decision for our small branch! Our Yang'er is a sensible and honest child, he will definitely be bullied by the unreasonable outside."

Gu Yankai glanced at the woman in the hall, turned around and looked at the calligraphy and painting hanging in the main hall: "Good, I know, I will naturally seek justice for Yang'er."

"Someone, settle this young lady."

"Yes, Marquis. But..."

"What?"

"The Madam went straight out of the mansion."

"Where did she go?"

"Should be the Bai family's residence in Bianjing. Before leaving, she said, the imperial physician has already been invited."

Gu Yankai waved his hand, and everyone exited the main hall.

Then Gu Yankai turned and walked toward Gu Tingyu's Fuyao Courtyard.

Gu Yankai, who was used to being the master of the Gu family, felt somewhat uncomfortable, because Gu Tingyu's eyes were like the Great Qin lady's, staring at him until he felt somewhat panicked.

Neither father nor son spoke first.

The courtyard was somewhat quiet, with only the cicadas chirping somewhere.

Finally, it was Gu Tingyu who spoke:

"Father, you took someone into the mansion during the mourning period, do you know what a big handle this is?"

Gu Yankai turned his head to look elsewhere, but his breathing was a bit hurried.

"Father, but this woman is very similar to my mother, personality, clothing, and even incense?"

Gu Yankai still didn't speak.

"Do you really think this kind of woman grew up by herself in Bianjing?"

While speaking, Gu Tingyu's voice was already trembling, full of incomprehensible questioning.

"Talking nonsense! You rest well..."

After speaking, Gu Yankai flicked his sleeves and left Fuyao Courtyard.

Walking out of the courtyard, Gu Yankai stopped, and said to Qi Sheng behind him:

"Bring the servant beside Gu Tingyang over for detailed interrogation."

"Yes, Marquis."
