Nearly twenty minutes later, Gu Xiwan returned to the "Emperor's Residence".
At this moment, Zhou Shutong was drinking tea in the tea pavilion in the yard. As soon as Gu Xiwan and Chu Lingjue got out of the car, Zhou Shutong left the tea pavilion and walked towards Gu Xiwan and said,
"Juejue, my daughter-in-law and I are going to talk about some topics related to our women's family. Please stay away."
"Yes." Chu Lingjue responded lightly and left.
Zhou Shutong took Gu Xiwan's arm and said,
"Wanwan, I let Yiyi give birth to Juejue's child. You don't think that my mother-in-law is a fool, and you blame me in your heart?"
Gu Xiwan smiled.
"Mom, I know you are devoted to the Buddha and compassionate. I admire your respect for life. How can you blame me?"
"good very good!
Daughter-in-law, I fell in love with you from the first time I saw you. I was indeed right about you. You are as reasonable as I thought. Unlike those petty girls who only cry when they are a little wronged. Complain without thinking about the ins and outs of the matter, let alone whether others may also have unavoidable difficulties. "
Looking at Gu Xiwan's pretty face, Zhou Shutong admired her eyes full of admiration, and then sighed,
"Alas! But in the final analysis, it is really disturbing to have such a bad thing happen. Wanwan, I feel wronged to you.
But don’t worry, I have always treated Yiyi as my biological daughter. After Yiyi gives birth to this child, if she wants the child, leave it to her. If she doesn’t want it, I will fight for it and let it be mine. Come to take care of and support her, and then I will find a good man for Yiyi and marry her off, so that she will no longer affect your and Juejue's lives. "
"Um."
Gu Xiwan remained calm on the surface, but her heart was spinning a thousand times.
To this day, Gu Xiwan has also discovered that Sheng Xinyi listens to Zhou Shutong's words.
However, even though Sheng Xinyi was forced by her father to marry Ji Shaoting a year ago, Sheng Xinyi still divorced Ji Shaoting because she could not forget Chu Lingjue——
Even if Sheng Xinyi obeys Zhou Shutong, will Sheng Xinyi still obey when Zhou Shutong wants Sheng Xinyi to marry?
What's more, Gu Xiwan was extremely convinced that Sheng Xinyi was not pregnant.
However, Sheng Xinyi, who has always been thoughtful, unexpectedly made such an unusual statement about something that didn't exist at all, attracting Zhou Shutong's attention. How will Sheng Xinyi end up in the end?
"Oh, by the way, Wanwan, before I asked Juejue to pick you up at First Grade Hall, Juejue and I talked about your father...
My Buddhist teacher, Master Huiguang, often said that all right and wrong in the world are determined by fate, isn’t it? Who would have thought that the marriage that Brother Yuxuan and I did not achieve was actually achieved in the generation of my son and his daughter. "
"..." Gu Xiwan was shocked and confused.
"Mom, what on earth are you talking about?"
"Hehehe, Wanwan, neither Juejue nor Butler Cheng have told you about your father and me. Your father is the person I respect, admire and love the most..."
At this point, Zhou Shutong, who has always been like a living treasure, turned out to be shy and blushing, like an affectionate girl.
After calming down for a moment, he continued,
"Back then, Ling Jue's father and I had an arranged marriage. There was no love between me and Ling Jue's father. Later, Ling Jue's father was forced to leave us because of some family matters. Ling Jue and I When we were living on the streets and being bullied by those ambitious people from the Chu family, your dad saved us——
Your father saw that we, mother and son, were homeless, so he kindly took us in, and even took Jue Jue as his disciple. Wanwan, you must have never seen your father when he was young, right? He was as tall and handsome as Jue Jue. Well, when he rescued me and Jue Jue, he defeated six street gangsters by himself, like a majestic general, invincible and majestic...
I fell in love with him at first sight when I saw him. Later, the more I came into contact with him, the more I fell in love with him and couldn't help myself.
I confessed my love to him and even found someone to match him. Unfortunately, your father already had another woman in his heart. In the end, I did not shake the position of that woman in his heart. Daughter-in-law, I only found out today that it turned out that The woman who lives in your father's heart is my biological mother! "
Gu Xiwan could not imagine that her mother-in-law and her father would have such an affair.
There was a trace of concern in her eyes.
Zhou Shutong smiled,
"Wanwan, don't worry. I won't hold any grudge against my mother-in-law because we are love rivals. Your father is the person I respect the most and my benefactor. You are his daughter. My mother-in-law is the person he cares about all his life. He He is no longer alive, and with this relationship, I should be kind to you, mother and daughter."
Gu Xiwan suddenly felt lost.
Chu Lingjue, Cheng Guanjia, Sheng Xinyi, Zhou Shutong, Ma... Everyone who knew Gu Xiwan's father spoke highly of him. It can be imagined that his father must be a bright and stalwart man.
What makes Gu Xiwan sad and regretful is that she obviously has such a good father, but she can only understand her father from other people's memories, and will never be able to see her father's voice and smile with her own eyes.
…
Gu Xiwan and Zhou Shutong returned to the living room together.
At this moment, Mu Yunian was sitting in the rocking chair in front of the French window on the east side of the living room knitting a sweater.
Gu Xiwan had seen her mother knitting sweaters when she was a child. However, after her mother was killed and became insane, although she occasionally picked up the sweater wool and played with it, she just knitted it randomly and could no longer knit anything decent.
Gu Xiwan walked over to her mother and took a look, and was surprised to find that her mother had flexible hands and knitted sweaters in a decent manner, just like a normal person...
"mom!"
Gu Xiwan called out happily.
"Wanwan, what's wrong?" Mu Yunian put down her needle and thread and raised her eyes to look at Gu Xiwan.
At this moment, Gu Xiwan noticed that Mu Yunian's eyes were particularly bright and lively, and she cried with joy.
"Mom, are you awake now? Do you feel that you are different from before? Have you...recovered?"
"Yes, I'm back to health. I feel particularly refreshed today." Mu Yunian put the needle and thread on the chair, stood up, took Gu Xiwan's hand and said,
"Wanwan, this is all your father's credit. Do you know? Your father came to see me again this morning. He said that he would come to see me every day in the future. He also said that he must cure my disease. Woolen cloth!
However, your dad said that this is a secret between me and him. He asked me not to tell anyone. He also told me to hide it from you. Wanwan, you can’t tell anyone else that your dad came to visit me. It's something! "
Gu Xiwan couldn't help but think of the dark figure she saw in her mother's bedroom. Her eyes turned from joy to nervousness.
"Mom, it's impossible for my dad to come to you. Is the person I saw in your bedroom that day coming to you again? Who is he? Why did he come to find you secretly?"
