In a dark and deserted space.
The old man with disheveled hair and ridged face was dressed in a dark red coat. He walked to a thick tree with his back hunched over and climbed up the tree using his hands and feet.
The tree trunk was covered with sharp thorns. When the old man climbed up, there were drops of dark red blood. The dark red color quickly turned into bright red. When he looked closer, he realized that the dark red color was also the color of dried blood.
The old man frowned, as if he was trying his best to endure the pain, but he didn't stop.
Until he climbed to the top of the tree, he returned the same way, muttering something all the time.
After retreating to the tree, he continued to climb up the tree, retreated again, climbed again, retreated again...
Over and over again, tirelessly, over and over again.
Under the middle coat that was scratched by sharp spikes, the flesh and blood were blurred, but he seemed unable to stop.
Wei Qingyan heard clearly what he had been saying, "You don't keep your promise, you don't keep your promise..."
Without the merit seal, one cannot clearly see how ghosts and grievances arise, but one can see clearly the current situation of ghosts and grievances through the eyes of the person concerned.
Gong Mingcheng is the current client of the Gong family, and the old man in the picture is his father, Gong Changying.
He has long lost his consciousness, only unconscious resentment.
There would be no one who could not recognize the father they had lived with for decades. Wei Qingyan did not need to answer Gong Mingcheng's question.
He just couldn't accept it.
Wei Qingyan saw that he seemed to have been drained of his soul, and said coldly, "What did your father ask for before he died?"
Gong Mingcheng was still stunned, his eyes staring straight at nothing.
"Father." The Gong brothers said at the same time. They didn't know what Miss Chang had done to their father and what she had allowed him to see, but they were very worried about his father's current appearance.
Gong Mingcheng was brought back to his senses by the calls of his two sons. He opened his mouth and stared, holding back the tears that were about to well up.
He slowly said, "My father passed away... We were all there at the time, and he said goodbye to us and explained everything without any explanation."
Seeing his father's pain, Gong Jun patted his back distressedly and added, "Before my grandfather passed away, he told me to treat my wife and children well and not to take concubines easily. Is this a request?"
Calculate.
Wei Qingyan looked at Gong Jun.
Gong Jun said hurriedly, "I have no desire to take a concubine. With my grandfather and father as examples, I also want to live in harmony with my wife."
Wei Qingyan nodded. The Gong family had a clean and upright family background, otherwise his father would not have married his eldest sister back then.
She looked at Gong Mingcheng again.
Gong Mingcheng shook his head, his eyes red, "My father once said that he was very satisfied with having a son like me. He had been the Minister of Dali Temple for many years and he was a very simple person.
He rarely even went to official social events. He said that if he socialized too much, the case would inevitably be unfair.
Life does not have too many requirements. He eats a mostly vegetarian diet, does not drink alcohol, and his clothes are comfortable and clean. In his spare time, he spends his free time with his family, reading, painting, and chess, and spending his whole life in harmony with his mother.
In my impression, they have never quarreled, let alone seen my father lose his temper. He is always calm, steady, and has no desires or demands..."
Gong Mingcheng suddenly covered his face with his hands, lowered his head and sobbed in pain, and asked, "Is it because his resentment is incomprehensible, and he will continue like this?"
In my impression, my father was as elegant as the breeze and the moon, his hair was always meticulously combed, his back was always straight, and he always had a faint smile on his lips.
It's not like being in charge of a criminal prison. The person who is trying the case is more like a scholar who has lost his book bag.
No one knew that this scholar was extremely afraid of pain.
Even though his skin was scratched a little while riding a horse, he would groan for a long time after returning to the house. After that, he would either walk or ride in a carriage, and he would not ride a horse again. But now, he was being penetrated by the sharp spikes as hard as iron, penetrating his body again and again.
How painful it must be for him.
Pain like a mountain roar and a tsunami came over him head and head. Gong Mingcheng's shoulders shook, and tears dripped from his fingers and fell to the ground.
Click, click, click...
Falling faster and faster.
Wei Qingyan's eyes dimly said, "Yes."
Therefore, whether it is for Gong Changying or the Gong family, they must find out Gong Changying's resentment as soon as possible and resolve him in time.
"You said he had a good relationship with your mother. Did he mention anything to your mother before he died? And your mother didn't do what she promised?"
Wiping his hands randomly on his face, the eldest son handed his father a piece of handkerchief. Gong Mingcheng took it and pressed it on his face, "Mother never told me.
But the father's position in the mother's heart is very important, and he should be given priority in everything. If the father has a last wish, the mother must comply with it. "
Wei Qingyan has dealt with a lot of grievances. She knows very well that what she hears with her own ears may not be true, and the same is true for what she sees with her own eyes.
Leaning against Shi Yu for a long time brought some life back to her, and she slowly stood up, "You heard what he said, someone in your Gong family betrayed him and made him die with his eyes open, and that's why what happened now.
If you want to find out his resentment, you will have to peel off the cocoons. People are the worst people can withstand exploration. Even if it is a perfect person in your heart, if you really investigate, you may find that his true face is either ugly, beautiful, or both. .
It may even reveal some unknown secrets.
You should think about it carefully before deciding whether to resolve your grievances. If necessary, you can send someone to the Anyuan Marquis Mansion.
Remember, there are only seven days. After seven days, if the resentment is not resolved, the Gong Mansion will raise mourning flags. "
After a pause, Wei Qingyan finally reminded him, "Don't forget Mr. Gong's side either."
Maybe Yao'er is closer to his old father and can think of something.
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives.
The voice of Gong Minglu, the second master of the Gong family, sounded from outside, "Brother, I heard that my sister-in-law had another headache today. Are you okay?"
Wei Qingyan glanced at the person still sleeping on the bed, picked up the hood on the ground, put it on, turned and walked out of the room.
Gong Mingcheng stood up and said, "I'll see the girl off."
"Stay."
The person who was told to stay did not stay. He signaled his younger son to guard his wife, and his eldest son followed behind Wei Qingyan and others.
His legs were still very weak.
When Wei Qingyan arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, he saw Gong Minglu and his wife being stopped by the guards.
"Are you the doctors invited by Mr. Jin?" Gong Minglu asked when he saw someone coming out, "How is my sister-in-law?"
The father-in-law is in poor health. He accompanied his wife Qin back to her parents' home today. Hearing the news that his daughter sent someone to deliver her, he hurriedly came back.
"Second brother, your sister-in-law has gone to bed. Wait here and go to my study later to talk." Gong Mingcheng took the words.
Hearing that his eldest brother's voice had changed and he needed help when walking, Gong Minglu's heart skipped a beat. Is his eldest sister-in-law in danger?
But he also understood the meaning of what the elder brother just said.
I just don’t want him to ask any more questions.
The couple looked at each other, Qin leaned slightly towards Wei Qingyan and others, and walked towards Wei Shiran's room.
Gong Minglu stood there, watching his eldest brother send people away.
After waiting for a while, when he saw his eldest brother coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, "Brother, how is my eldest sister-in-law?"
His voice was urgent, and his worry was palpable.
The two brothers are about ten years apart. The Gong family is simple and has no other children, so they have a very good relationship.
When Wei Shiran got married, he was still a little kid, and his eldest sister-in-law was like a mother. Wei Shiran was extremely caring for this brother-in-law who was more than ten years younger than him. Gong Minglu's feelings for his eldest sister-in-law were also extraordinary.
Gong Mingcheng raised his hand and put it on his younger brother's shoulder, saying in a deep voice, "Go to the study."
Then he turned his head and looked at his eldest son, "Go and guard your mother, and ask your second aunt to go to my study."
The old man's resentment concerns everyone in the Gong family, and he cannot hide it.
And he really has no clue. Maybe everyone can figure it out together and get an idea.
"What?" Gong Minglu jumped up from his chair in shock after hearing his brother's words.
He touched his elder brother's forehead and said, "Brother, are you confused by my sister-in-law's illness? How could my father have any resentment, and how could my father harm us? Could it be that you were deceived by a charlatan?"
My father was a man who loved his children very much and was a truly loving father. When he was a teenager, he would often jump on his back and act coquettishly with him.
When his son was born, his father smiled kindly and started enlightening him personally when he was three years old.
Now the eldest brother said that his son fell to death while riding a horse because of his father's resentment.
How can he believe this?
