Gu Qinghong's words made Mrs. Gu burst into tears and Gu Nan burst into tears.
She couldn't help but hugged Gu Qinghong into her arms, her throat felt like a ball of cotton was stuck.
I could only choke and murmur: "Brother Hong, good brother Hong."
She had just turned ten when Brother Hong was born.
Being an aunt for the first time, I was so excited and excited that I had to run to my sister-in-law's room to tease Brother Hong every day.
When Brother Hong could walk, she discovered that he had inherited his heart disease and could not run or jump. She hugged, carried, and coaxed him to play every day.
When she was getting married, Brother Hong, who had just turned five years old, cried and insisted on getting into the sedan chair with her.
Brother Hong has two small dimples on her face, and her smile is particularly beautiful. She will call her aunt in a soft voice.
But after his father and brother died one after another, Brother Hong lost the smile on his face.
He tried hard to keep a straight face and pretend to be an adult, trying to support the Gu family's big house.
But such a good brother Hong died suddenly of a heart attack a year later when he was less than ten years old.
When Gu Nan thought of this, his heart suddenly felt like a knife.
In her new life, she not only wants to reconcile and protect the Gu family's property, but also her own family.
"Aunt, Brother Hong is over eight years old. Men and women sit on different seats when they are seven years old. You can't hug me like this anymore."
Gu Qinghong tried his best to break free from Gu Nan's arms and corrected him with a stern face.
Gu Nan was so amused by his pretending to be an adult that he burst into laughter.
"Brother Hong has really grown up and can support our aunt."
Mrs. Chang snorted coldly and looked at Gu Qinghong with a displeased face.
"Childish, how can you, an eight-year-old child, support you? If you go to the Hou Mansion, I'm afraid that the people in the Hou Mansion may not look at you seriously."
Gu Qinghong's face turned red.
Gu Nan stood up and walked to Chang's side, respectfully and sincerely saluted Chang.
Mrs. Chang was startled by her sudden movement, her face full of vigilance.
"What are you doing again?"
Gu Nan said seriously: "Sister-in-law, I apologize to you for my previous ignorance and stupidity.
In the past, I was blind and didn't know how to see people. I was blinded by Xie Heng, so I did those stupid things.
Now that I understand that the Xie family is harboring evil intentions and plotting against the Gu family, how can I join them?
I have made up my mind to make peace with each other, but not now. Before we can make peace with each other, I must first get back all the Gu family's property. "
Mrs. Chang was slightly stunned, half-believing her words.
"It's better to say it than to sing it. My father-in-law and your brother are no longer here, and the second and third bedrooms are separated again.
If you take back the Gu family's property, who will be in charge of it? Do you want to take care of it yourself? "
My sister-in-law did not ask this casually.
In his early years, my father was doing business and often lost money. However, since the year he had Gu Nan, he has been able to prosper and his business has grown bigger and bigger.
Along the way, he built 13 business houses, and even won the plaque of Huangshang.
His father often said that Gu Nan was the lucky star of the family. Coupled with his father and brother, they both had heart problems and could not enjoy a normal lifespan.
His father's last words before his death were that once his brother was gone, the future of Gu's business would be entirely decided by Gu Nan.
Gu Nan smiled slightly and said, "I'll leave it to you, sister-in-law."
Chang's face changed slightly and her voice rose twice.
"I?"
Gu Nan nodded.
She didn't say this out of nowhere.
In my previous life, only my sister-in-law and her little niece were left.
She had raised Xie Rui for five or six years at that time, and Xie Rui was used to pretending to be well-behaved and sensible in front of her.
She loved Xie Rui as if she were her own child, so she went back to her parents' home to get all the deeds for Gu's business and transferred the ownership to Xie Rui.
My sister-in-law was left with only a silk shop to live in.
Her sister-in-law called her a wolf-hearted person and cut off contact with her.
But later she heard that her sister-in-law gritted her teeth and expanded the silk and satin shop, making it the largest silk and satin shop in the capital.
My sister-in-law has a fierce temper, is adventurous and hardworking, and has a business acumen.
In her previous life, she felt sorry for her sister-in-law and the Gu family. In this life, it would be most appropriate for her to hand over Gu's business to her sister-in-law.
This is what she owes her sister-in-law, and what she owes the Gu family.
Chang looked at Gu Nan and sneered.
"It's time to get up, Jiaojiao. I have to go back, but I don't have time to chat and laugh with my sister-in-law."
She turned away.
Gu Nan looked sarcastic.
"What? I dare to hand over Gu's business name to my sister-in-law, but my sister-in-law dare not take care of it?
Are you afraid that if you don't manage it well, Gu's business will lose money, or are you afraid that the woman will be exposed and have a bad reputation? "
Chang paused and turned around hastily, his face full of anger.
"Bah, reputation is all about other people's mouths, I, Chang Suzhen, don't care about those things.
What's more, although there are not many women who come out to do business, it's not none.
Our Gu family is a business owner. If the man in the family is gone, what will happen if the woman goes out to do business? "
She raised her chin and looked at Gu Nan coldly.
"If you dare to take back Gu's business, I will take it over. The question is, do you dare? Aren't you afraid that the Marquis will divorce you?"
Gu Nan breathed a sigh of relief, curled his lips and said, "Then sister-in-law, let's wait and see."
Chang snorted, rolled up his sleeves and turned around to leave.
Gu Qinghong looked worried, "Aunt, what can Brother Hong do?"
Gu Nan raised her hand to rub his head and said softly: "Brother Hong just needs to eat well, sleep well, and study well.
After a few days, my aunt will try to hire a miracle doctor to come over and nurse Hongge's body back to normal. In the future, Hongge will be able to run and jump like his sister. "
Gu Qinghong's dark eyes were full of anticipation and excitement.
"Is what my aunt said true? Can Brother Hong's disease really be cured? Is there really such a miracle doctor?"
Gu Nan nodded as he thought of the miracle doctor he heard about in his previous life.
"Well, Brother Hong will definitely be able to cure it."
Other doctors can't do anything, but that miracle doctor must have something.
Gu Qinghong left with great expectations.
Mrs. Gu was also very happy, with a rare smile on her face.
"Nan Nan, do you really know the miracle doctor who can cure Brother Hong?"
Of course I don’t know him yet.
Gu Nan nodded, "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely find a way to invite people here."
Mrs. Gu clasped her hands together and said, "Amitabha, Buddha bless you."
The mother-in-law outside reported that lunch had been prepared.
Gu Nan waved his hand and told Ruyi: "Take ten servants and go to thirteen businesses in person to collect the account books for the first half of the year.
Then I notified the shopkeepers of the thirteen shops and Zhao Yong, asking them to come to my house to see me in the late afternoon. "
Zhao Yong is the chief steward sent by the Marquis of Wenchang to take over the Gu family's business. He is now in charge of thirteen Gu family businesses.
In Gu's headquarters, Zhao Yong picked his teeth and burped, his round belly swaying.
A middle-aged man with a mustache walked in outside, looking slightly nervous.
"Director Zhao, the Crown Prince's wife just sent someone to Xingwei Building to collect the account books for the first half of the year, and then notified us to gather at Gu's house."
Zhao Yong's chubby face frowned.
"When did it happen? Why didn't I know?"
He turned to look at the door, which was the servant sent by the prince to serve him.
The young man shook his head quickly, "The young man has been guarding outside, and the Crown Prince's wife never sent anyone to inform the chief steward."
A look of displeasure appeared on Zhao Yong's face.
The mustache said: "Although the Crown Prince's wife often checked the accounts before, she always asked us to send the account books to the Marquis Mansion.
Why were you sent to the Gu family today? "
Zhao Yong squinted his eyes and thought about what happened in the past two days, and couldn't help but sneer.
"The prince has a new concubine, and I heard that he is very favored. The prince's wife is having trouble with the prince.
Let us send the account books to the Gu family to remind the prince that these businesses belong to her Gu family. "
The mustache asked: "Should we send the account book?"
Zhao Yong sneered: "Give it away, why not? We have done a good job in keeping our account books. How can the Crown Prince's wife, a woman from the back house, tell anything?"
