"Madam, Zhou Yi did go to the countryside with the Gu family!"
When Nanny Su said this, she deliberately slapped her lips, "Oh, look, I made a mistake again. Where is Zhou Yi, it's clearly Gu Yi."
Since he left the Zhou family and returned to his biological parents, he naturally had to change his last name.
Aunt Su is worthy of being Li's confidant, so she naturally knows how to make her master happy.
Sure enough, when Grandma Su said this, the corners of Li's mouth raised happily.
However, Ms. Li was more cautious and said as if talking to herself, "Just changing the surname is not enough. It is best to change the household registration!"
Only by changing all household registrations can this matter be completely solved!
Aunt Su was stunned for a moment, then understood and said quickly, "Yes! I understand, madam, don't worry, I will send someone to check right now!"
It would be better if it was Zhou Yi, oh no, it was Gu Yi who knew better and took the initiative to change his household registration.
If Gu Yi doesn't give up and still covets the Zhou family's wealth, then don't blame her, the steward of the Hou Mansion, for being ruthless.
Seeing that Nanny Su understood what she meant, Mrs. Li nodded with satisfaction.
…
In fact, Mrs. Li was overly worried. Zhou Yi, who had a dream, wanted to cut off the relationship with the Zhou family as soon as possible than anyone else.
He took the initiative to contact the Gu family and his wife, and said goodbye to his wife in the shortest possible time.
The first thing Zhou Yi did after leaving the Hou Mansion was to say to his father and his mother, "Dad, grandma, let's go to Jingzhao Mansion and change the household registration."
The Gu family lives in a rural area on the outskirts of Beijing, but according to their household registration, they are also under the jurisdiction of the capital.
Therefore, to change your household registration, you can go directly to Jingzhao Mansion.
"Ah? Go to the government?"
Gu's father and mother are both honest country people and have never been to the capital in their lives.
There is even an instinctive fear of the government.
However, Father Gu is a man after all and has more experience.
He also captured the key point in Zhou Yi's words, "Change household registration?"
Is it what he thinks?
"Yes! According to the household registration, I am still the son of the Zhou family."
Zhou Yi said calmly, "But the problem is, I am not. My surname is Gu, so I should recognize my ancestor and return to my clan."
The Gu family, on the other hand, is just an ordinary farmer, and they don’t even have a family tree.
Therefore, the only way to prove his identity is to go to the government to change his household registration!
"Okay! Okay!"
When Father Gu heard what Zhou Yi said, it was exactly the same as his guess, and he burst into tears of joy.
After being scolded for more than ten years, someone suddenly told him: You have a biological son!
His biological son is fair and fair, elegant and handsome. At first glance, he looks like a noble young master.
Originally, Gu's father was a little worried, fearing that his son would dislike them if he grew up in Fugui Township.
People in the world always say, "A son never despises his mother's ugliness." In fact, the only people who really don't despise their children are parents.
As parents, if you are too poor and useless, you will still be rejected by your children!
Therefore, when Gu's father and Gu's mother learned that they were carrying the wrong child, they did not come to recognize them.
Instead, he has been quietly paying attention to the trends in the capital.
After they were sure that the Hou Mansion had not treated their son well, and that his son's life was even in danger, they had the courage to come to the capital!
However, the couple still had concerns in their hearts——
It's one thing if the Hou Mansion doesn't want Zhou Yi, but it's another thing if Zhou Yi is willing to go with them.
It wasn't until this moment that Gu's father and mother's worries were relieved when they heard Zhou Yi take the initiative to "recognize their ancestors and return to their clan".
The couple was so excited that tears fell involuntarily.
Zhou Yi's heart felt sour and numb when she saw one of Gu's father and Gu's mother weeping silently and the other crying uncontrollably.
He took out the handkerchief and handed it to Gu's mother, "Auntie, don't cry! I will be Gu Yi from now on, your son Gu Yi!"
"Hey! Okay! Okay! Gu Yi, my son!"
When Gu's mother heard what Gu Yi said, not only did she not stop crying, but she cried even more freely.
This was her first child. If she had not been given the wrong baby, she would not have lived such a miserable life in the following ten years.
He had no son and had to continue having children.
She gave birth to three children in succession, and her body was exhausted, but she was still laughed at as a hen that couldn't lay eggs.
Son!
Her son!
Why did you hold it wrong in the first place?
"Yes, Aniang, why did you go to Baiyun Temple at that time?"
Gu Yi has been puzzled by this question for a long time.
After going to Jingzhao Mansion to change her household registration, Zhou Yi completely became Gu Yi.
The family of three started to rush back.
Gu Yi took advantage of the time to rush and asked casually.
Gu's mother was a little hesitant and subconsciously looked at Gu's father.
Father Gu's face was as deep as water and he nodded slowly.
He is an ordinary banker and has never had any great skills in his life.
Neither smart nor knowledgeable.
However, Father Gu is not stupid.
Ever since the news of "stealing a dragon and turning into a phoenix" was revealed, Gu's father has been thinking about what happened back then.
At that time, they just thought that they were lucky and met a noble person.
Thinking back now, Father Gu's scalp was numb and he was panicking - maybe they were being plotted against!
Now I see my son taking the initiative to ask, and I think my son should be smarter and more knowledgeable than the couple.
Father Gu thought it was necessary to tell him what happened back then.
After getting Gu's father's permission, Gu's mother said, "When I was seven or eight months pregnant with you, Aunt Feng, the stable woman who was responsible for delivering babies from all over the country, came to me."
"She said that there was a noble man in the capital who was also pregnant. But the man was noble, and the child in his belly was even more noble."
"So, you want to find a few people who are also pregnant and go to Baiyun Temple to pray together."
"At the beginning, we were also murmuring in our hearts, fearing that there was something wrong with it."
"Later, I heard that about ten pregnant women were going, and the months were different. Some were five or six months old, some were seven or eight months old, and some were just pregnant."
The month was different, but the number of people was still large, so Gu's father and Gu's mother felt that it shouldn't be a bad thing.
"Aunt Feng said that we won't let our efforts be in vain. Every pregnant woman who goes to Baiyun Nunnery will be given a red envelope of ten taels of silver."
Speaking of this, Gu's father and mother's faces were a little red.
Ten taels of silver is really nothing to a wealthy family.
Maybe not even enough money for a meal.
But for poor people, ten taels of silver is probably a wealth they will never be able to accumulate in their lifetime.
As for the Gu family, they have been able to purchase such a property that is coveted by brothers and clan members over the years, all thanks to the first ten taels of silver.
"We, we were afraid of poverty, and when we heard that there was money to be taken, we were moved!"
Father Gu looked very unnatural.
As he was talking, he suddenly cursed bitterly, "If I had known that I would lose my son if I went to Baiyun Nunnery, let's talk about ten taels, one hundred taels, one thousand taels, we wouldn't go!"
This is definitely Gu's father's true words.
Now he has dozens of acres of farmland and a yard in the town, but what's the use?
Without a son, the couple would be fat sheep in the eyes of everyone.
People stare at you every day, and you are reminded in your ears all the time: You have no son, you are a destitute, and there will be no one to take you to your death!
Father Gu would rather eat chaffy vegetables than experience that taste!
"Noble man? Give me back the money?"
If Gu Yi was just doubtful before, now, after listening to what Gu's father and mother said, he was 80% sure——
This matter must be related to Mrs. Li!
...It’s just that Mrs. Li is the Marquis’s wife, and no matter how downcast the Jingning Marquis’ Mansion is, it is still a dignified Marquis’ Mansion.
As for Gu Yi, he is just an ordinary citizen, how can he compete with Madam Hou?
[Forget it, what happened back then is in the past, and I’m living a good life now, so don’t worry about it anymore! 】
【Why forget it? Mrs. Li plotted against me and separated me from my parents for more than ten years. How could such a selfish and vicious woman let her go? 】
【Don’t let her go? What can you do? 】
【...Take the imperial examination! Be an official! As long as I have a certain identity, I can take revenge! 】
In Gu Yi's mind, two voices kept shouting.
And the balance in his heart slowly tilted towards the second voice...
PS: Yeah, please give me a monthly pass. I’ll add more updates later!
