"You are from China!"
One sentence is decisive and resounding.
It seems that this is an unquestionable and indisputable fact.
Mu Xiu's heart was deeply touched.
He did not doubt that Gu Qingcheng was saying nice things to coax him.
Because there is no need!
This is not the Northern Dynasties, let alone nine years ago.
This is Lingnan in the Southern Dynasties, and it is the territory of the Gu family.
As the most distinguished little girl of the Gu family, Gu Qing had no reason to "aggrieve" herself like this.
so--
Does she really think so?
Mu Xiu's heart suddenly started to wander.
He looked deeply at Gu Qingcheng, his silver-blue eyes full of hesitation, expectation and other emotions.
He was like a prisoner waiting for judgment, while Gu Qingcheng was the judge who judged him.
Gu Qingcheng's words and a heartfelt look could make Mu Xiu's hanging heart fly into the sky or fall into the deep abyss.
He just stared into Gu Qingcheng's eyes, refusing to let go of the slightest movement in her eyes.
Gu Qingcheng met Mu Xiu's gaze calmly, her red and phoenix eyes were clean and clear, without any evasion or falsehood.
What she just said was absolutely from the bottom of her heart!
She sincerely recognized Mu Xiu’s identity as a “Chinese person”!
Mu Xiu:......
His heart was hit hard again.
The tall, thin body swayed slightly.
This time it was not because of excitement, but because of great excitement and surprise.
Am I recognized by the world-famous daughter of the Gu family in Wu County?
The Gu family is an old clan, with a family history of six hundred years.
Clan also has a chain of contempt——
A first-class aristocratic family looks down upon all aristocratic families;
Southern aristocratic families look down on northern barbarians;
The families with Han surnames in the north looked down upon the Hanized Xianbei families;
And the local clans in the south look down upon the families with overseas surnames who traveled to the south or the families who stayed in the north...
In the entire chain of contempt, as the famous surname of the Southern Dynasties, the Gu family of Wu County was definitely at the top and could look down upon the others.
The current head of the Gu family is the world-famous Duke You'an.
The Sanniang of the Gu family in front of her is a junior who was raised by Duke You'an personally. To a certain extent, her words and deeds represent Duke You'an.
It also represents the entire Gu family!
Mu Xiu just has low self-esteem, but he is very smart.
After the initial shock, his sanity quickly returned.
His brain was running rapidly, and he immediately realized the value of Gu Qing's words.
She not only recognized Mu Xiu as a *** on behalf of herself, but also represented the attitude of the entire Gu family.
Sure enough, just after Gu Qingcheng said these words, everyone in the Gu family had changes in their application to varying degrees.
Brothers Gu Yi and Gu Ji were old foxes in the court, and they could express their emotions and anger. Although Gu Qingcheng's attitude towards Mu Xiu was unusual, the two bosses did not show anything strange.
Gu Yong, Gu An, Gu Kang and other second generations of the Gu family are also elite children of aristocratic families who have undergone strict upbringing and received professional training. They may not be as calm as their parents, but they can also control their emotions extremely well.
At most, a strange dark light flashed quickly in his eyes.
The only ones who could see the reaction were probably some of the Gu family's female relatives, but it only flashed across their faces.
The ones who had the biggest reaction were the maids, attendants, Bu Qu, etc. of the Gu family.
They are arrogant. As noble servants of aristocratic families, they are more dignified than ordinary officials.
Seeing Mu Xiu, an "ugly monster" whose appearance was obviously different from that of the Chinese people, they did not dare to show disdain or ridicule out of rules, but they were still arrogant.
And when Gu Qingcheng said, "You are from the Celestial Dynasty" and fully expressed his goodwill and even appreciation for Mu Xiu, those servants
They instantly lost their arrogance and became very respectful and humble——
This is a person recognized by the master and a distinguished guest of the master!
As a loyal servant, you will naturally respect him!
Mu Xiu is smart and sensitive, and he can always capture the attitude of the outside world with great sensitivity.
He felt Gu Qing's kindness and the change in attitude of everyone in the Gu family.
The Gu family truly accepted him, and Gu Qing and Gu Sanniang truly regarded him as a member of the Celestial Dynasty!
"...Junior sister is right, I, Mu Xiu, am from the Celestial Dynasty!"
Mu Xiu still looked down at Gu Qingcheng, but his back slowly straightened.
"Aqing, you, you have really grown!"
Returning from the pier, the group first stopped temporarily at a temporary residence in a small fishing village.
Wash, change clothes, take a short rest, wait until tomorrow, and then go to Gushi Uburg.
Gu Qingcheng did not go to the study room to discuss things with his father and uncles, but hugged Mrs. Xiao.
Mrs. Xiao gently stroked her daughter's head, where she started to see thick black and smooth long hair.
Oops, Ah Qing has such nice hair. .
This is completely different from the sparse yellow hair he had when he was a child.
In the past few years since she went to the Northern Dynasty, Mrs. Xiao missed and worried about her daughter all the time.
It's not that he's afraid of his daughter suffering. Even if the Gu family is exiled, they will still be from an aristocratic family.
Even if I go to Lingnan, I can still maintain a life of fine clothing, fine food, and good support.
Mrs. Xiao is only worried about her daughter's appearance, body, etc.
The ugliness of her daughter when she was a child was a huge blow to Ms. Xiao.
As a woman herself, she naturally knows how important a woman's appearance is.
Men always say "Marry a virtuous wife", but do you really want him to marry an ugly girl?
Furthermore, even if it is not to please men, women themselves would like to look better.
Unfortunately, things like appearance are given by your natural parents.
As a mother, she gave birth to four children. The other three were all outstanding in appearance, but only one little daughter...
Every time she sees her ugly daughter, every time she hears criticism from the outside world, Mrs. Xiao feels guilty.
She was sorry for A Qing and gave her life, but failed to give her a good skin.
For a while, Mrs. Xiao even wondered if she had committed too many sins in her previous life and was getting retribution in this life!
But, even if there is retribution, it should be on her instead of letting her daughter bear all this.
When her little daughter was just born, Mrs. Xiao once held out hope: Babies are like this, and it will be fine when they grow up!
However, when Gu Qing reached the age of three, her hair was still thin and tangled, her face was dark, and her facial features were even more messy.
Three years old looks big.
Mrs. Xiao was almost desperate.
However, this is her biological daughter, and Mrs. Xiao will not give up easily no matter what.
She began to look for famous doctors, and even sought out some strange people when she was sick.
It was Master Cihang from the suburbs of Beijing who gave Gu Qing an order and gave a mysterious and mysterious reason——
The little girl has been a noble person for many generations, and this time she entered the world just for training.
The ugly appearance is one of the hardships Gu Qing needs to endure.
Mr. Xiao disagreed: "Since you have been a noble person for many generations, you are naturally protected by the gods. Why do you have to go through hardships?"
What calamity?
She doesn't believe it!
Master Cihang just remained silent. He is just a mortal who can peek into the secrets of heaven. How can he know so many "whys"?
Seeing this, Mrs. Xiao had to change the subject, "Master, is there any way to resolve this?"
She couldn't let her daughter grow up with such a ghostly appearance under the strange and contemptuous eyes of the world.
Master Cihang slowly shook his head, "This is destiny."
Mr. Xiao:......
Xiao instinctively resisted what Master Cihang said.
she
She didn't want to believe it, and she didn't tell anyone about it except her husband.
At that time, the Xiao family was still the noble eldest princess of Jiangling and the head mistress of the Gu family in Wu County. Master Cihang did not dare to offend easily even if he was an expert outside the country.
Therefore, the secret that Gu Qing is a "noble man of many generations and a man of great calamity in the world" has not been spread.
Outsiders only thought that Gu Qing was a naturally ugly girl, but no one knew that she had a good background, and no one became greedy because of it.
Mrs. Xiao, however, took Master Cihang's words to heart.
After parting ways with her youngest daughter, she always wondered: What will happen to her daughter's training? Is it possible for her to escape this fate?
During her days in the Northern Dynasties, Madam Xiao would always have random thoughts, especially after Gu Youyi and Yu Wenheng became childhood sweethearts, Madam Xiao would occasionally have random dreams.
Unfortunately, after waking up, most of those dreams are not remembered.
However, Mrs. Xiao always felt sad and suffocated.
It was as if something bad happened in her dream, and it all had something to do with her Aqing.
Ah Qing, it seems that life is not going well!
Xiao desperately told herself that it was just a dream and could not be taken seriously.
Furthermore, given Aqing's identity and talents, even if the world is in chaos and even if the Gu family is overthrown, she will not be too bad.
However, every time she woke up from her dream, Mrs. Xiao's heart always felt a dull pain.
"Aqing! You must live well!"
Mrs. Xiao built a Buddhist temple for herself and chanted sutras and prayed for blessings every day.
Outsiders only thought that she placed hope in gods and Buddhas because of the fall of her own dynasty. The real reason was only known to Xiao herself——
Since reincarnation really exists, then she should do more good deeds and recite sutras just to pray for her daughter!
Maybe, there will be blessings.
Then, the good news came——
Gently pushing Gu Qingcheng away, Mrs. Xiao put her hands on her daughter's shoulders. She looked intently at the beautiful hibiscus that was close at hand.
beautiful!
It is very beautiful!
It has the shadow of Lang Jun and her eyebrows.
Mrs. Xiao even had an inexplicable intuition: A Qing was originally supposed to look like this, and her former ugliness was only covered by her "destiny"!
"Yes, Aniang! Perhaps the Feng Shui of Lingnan really matches my horoscope."
Gu Qingcheng did not reveal the secret of the system.
It's not that she doesn't believe her mother, but she won't tell anyone until she has a glimpse of the real truth and before she is sure whether it is safe.
Even if there is a risk, she should bear it alone.
She doesn't want her parents to worry about her, let alone implicate her parents!
So, it all comes down to feng shui and horoscopes.
Although it sounds mysterious, it is also the best explanation.
Sure enough, Mrs. Xiao was convinced, "Well! It seems that you came to Lingnan with me at the right time!"
Mrs. Xiao's eyes, which were similar to Gu Qingcheng's, were full of joy.
It doesn't matter what the truth is, she just wants her daughter to be safe, wealthy and healthy...
