Chapter 353 The Republic of China: The First Wife from the Countryside and the Indifferent Commander 54
Aunt Zou is now as skinny as a stick. She is pressed in front of the tomb, her body is trembling slightly, and she does not dare to look up at Mrs. Guan’s tomb.
Guan Jingchong said to the tombstone: "You have done good deeds all your life and treated everyone with sincerity, but in the end you were bitten by the poisonous snake around you."
Hearing this, the concubine finally looked at Tombstone, remembering that when she first entered the Guan family, although Mrs. Guan was different from her, He was close to her but did not target her, and he did not treat her unfairly in food and clothing. He gritted his teeth secretly and kowtowed suddenly: "Madam, I was deceived, and I actually forgot how good you were to me. I am vicious and jealous. I am sorry for you."
I cried and confessed, as if I finally knew I was wrong.
Guan Jingchong said calmly: "My son has allowed her to live so many more years, and now let her come down to be buried with you."
The concubine suddenly raised her head: "You want to kill me?" Looking at his indifferent expression, she realized that Guan Jingchong was really He would not let himself go and finally collapsed, "Why do you kill me? Your mother has never been good to me. She looks down on me at all and is always on guard against me. She never lets me get involved in housekeeping matters."< br>
She was unwilling to give in, "Why can't I be no worse than her, but I can only be a concubine? And you, outsiders say you are kind and righteous to our mother and son. But how have you ever treated us sincerely?"
"You left me in Chengdu, and only sent me some tattered clothes and food every month of the year, and the money I gave was a certain amount."
"And your brother!"
"If you really treat him as a brother, you should let him be a powerful official like you, but you suppressed him and asked him to study abroad and come back to be a teacher!! You taught him that he only knows how to be romantic and has no brains. It's a serious matter, you did it on purpose, you didn't want him to develop his skills at all."
Guan Jingchong and Lin Zhi were both speechless. Guan Junzhang now made all his own choices, but Guan Jingchong never interfered.
He sneered: "It was Guan Junzhang's own request to go abroad. As for what he studied abroad, that is his own business."
"As for you saying that I will not let him take real power, ha, With his ability, what can he do?”
< br>The aunt was extremely angry when she saw that he blatantly looked down on her son. Guan Jingchong's eyes were cold: "You alone are not worthy of being compared with my mother?" As for the power of housekeeping, that was what his mother was used to doing. Why should he give it to him? She, who would leave things to a concubine?
What's more, with her ability, she also has a brother who smokes and spends money, so it's not certain who the money will be given to.
I was too lazy to listen to her sophistry anymore. It was just a complaint made by a villain who thought he was wronged. He ordered: "Take this person down."
Two guards came forward and dragged the concubine away. He struggled with fear on his face: "Where are you taking me? I don't want it. Let me go. Guan Jingchong, you have already punished me. Please let me go. If not, let Junzhang go. He is your brother."
Guan Jingchong looked at the tombstone until his concubine's voice disappeared. Lin Zhi looked at him: "What the concubine said was that you really left her in Rongcheng?"
"She is my father's concubine, Junzhang." She's not here, why should I pick her up?" Guan Jingchong took off his military jacket, rolled up his sleeves, and looked at her, "I want to repair my parents' graves. If you are tired, go back first."
< br>
Lin Zhi said: "I'm not tired, I'll watch here."
In other words, most of what he heard from Liu's mother was not the truth. Guan Jingchong did not take this aunt and brother seriously. How important it was, but he did a good job on the surface, and everyone thought he valued them more. They couldn't help but think how outrageous this rumor was.
Guan Jingchong nodded, took the shovel handed by the servant, and started repairing the grave with a few servants, replanting trees around it, and repairing some weathered areas, and did not go back until dark.
The house has prepared meals, which are all made according to the taste of the two of them, as well as local food from Chengdu. It seems that in order to show off in front of them, a full table is prepared. Guan Jingchong frowned and asked for next time There wasn't much to do, and then the two of them ate quietly.
After eating, he took her around the house and introduced her to various places in the house.
The courtyard in Rongcheng is a garden in the south of the Yangtze River. Everywhere is exquisite and well-maintained. There is the master's study room and the Buddhist hall where Mrs. Guan used to worship Buddha every day. When the two of them entered the house, there were people lighting incense every day. Avalokitesvara was sitting on the seat with kind eyes. Cigarettes curl up. But it is a pity that the real believers in Buddhism are no longer there.
They went to the ancestral hall again. Guan Jingchong took out the Guan family's genealogy, opened it to his page, dipped his brush in ink, and added his wife Lin Zhi after his name, Said: "After the child is born, it will be written below us."
< br>Ling Zhi looked at it and saw that his handwriting was very good, majestic and powerful. Looking at the name behind him, her face felt a little hot: "You are not married yet, but you are thinking far ahead."
He sipped With a smile, he closed the family tree, put it back into the sandalwood box, locked it, and took her away.
He returned to his yard, entered the bedroom, and after the servant left, he held her and sat on a round chair. At this moment, he finally relaxed and said, "We will get married when we get back." He touched her belly, "Otherwise, the baby in her belly will The little guy can’t stand it anymore.”
Ling Zhi was confused: "What did you say?"
Guan Jingchong looked at her, his ears feeling a little warm: "I asked Lu Cheng to check you, and he said that you have been pregnant for two months. Pregnant.”
? ? Lin Zhi lowered her head subconsciously, in disbelief. She didn't realize it at all. Looking at him meant that for the first time... Guan Jingchong hugged her tightly and said, "Marry me when you go back and be my wife, okay?"
Ling Zhi thought that before departure, he had been writing wedding invitations in the study for a few days. The house seemed to be changing quietly, and a lot of things had been added. He must have been preparing for getting married. She finally said "yes" to him, but bowed her head. Looking at his belly, why is there no movement from this child? If he hadn't said it, she wouldn't have known anything.
The two of them didn't stay in Rongcheng for long. He was the commander after all, so he couldn't leave the place for too long. If he took the time to come back, he would definitely delay a lot of things.
And this place is a bit close to Marshal Rong in the north, so something might happen.
After the repairs to the tomb were completed, the two went to burn incense and kowtow again, and then took the train to prepare to go south. This time they left without taking Aunt Zou with them. Lin Zhi guessed that he must have left her here to solve the problem. , so I didn’t ask.
They did not take the train, but drove back. There were more guards, but Guan Jingchong's expression was calm from beginning to end, and Lin Zhi's uneasiness was also dispelled.
After several days of turbulence, we finally returned to the Commander's Mansion.
Guan Jingchong quickly went to work, and Lin Zhi learned from a servant that the train they were traveling on had an accident and a carriage was blown up. The people pretending to be her and Guan Jingchong were almost killed.
Fortunately, Guan Jingchong had taken precautions and left every one of the other party's people behind. The people who played them were also sent to the hospital for treatment, and their lives were not in danger.
Ling Zhi held her hand against her wildly beating heart and had a brush with death. Only at this moment did she realize how dangerous Guan Jingchong's position was.
This era is so turbulent.
After Guan Jingchong came back, she snuggled tightly in his arms. He was silent and softly comforted: "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you."
Lin Zhi hugged him tighter: "Promise me, nothing will happen to you."
Half a month later, the news that the two were planning to get married spread, and wedding invitations were sent everywhere.
