Chapter 143 Brother and sister, husband and wife talk

Gu Xihao hit her head in annoyance: "What do you mean by unexpected? You are not hurt at all?"

Gu Xixian was instantly depressed: "That's not important."

"How can it not be important?" Gu Xihao held her shoulders and said seriously: "Sister, you are the most important person in my heart. I will not let anyone who hurts you go, even if... they are our parents."

He watched his sister grow up. From the moment she was born until now, the time they have spent together far exceeds the time they spent with their parents. When he was young, his sister urged him to make progress and go to school. In order to prevent him from wasting his time, the little girl sat outside the school all day long to accompany him in his studies. Later, his sister taught him a lot of knowledge that he could not learn from his parents or in school, and taught him the kung fu she learned from her master. Without his sister, he would not be who he is now. All the changes in the family are also due to his sister. Everyone in the family has benefited from her. People should be grateful and know how to be content.

They supported each other all the way, and he knew more about his sister's kindness than anyone else. He never thought that the first real harm to his sister came from the person closest to them. Even so, his heart to protect his sister has never wavered. Reasonably and emotionally, his sister deserves his highest protection.

Gu Xixian was also really moved. She blinked her eyes, and the loss in her eyes was gone. In her previous life, she had parents who loved her the most and had their complete love. After coming here, she also admired and respected her current parents. She had treated them with care, but she never thought that such a night pearl would lead to so many things. She never thought that this incident would also cause dirty water to be thrown on her brother who loved her. She could understand Du Xianniang's change in attitude towards her and could accept it, but she could never forgive those words she said to her brother. She was convinced that these words were not spread by Du Xianniang, but she must have said those words. Even when no one was around, as a mother, she should not vent so freely. Walls have ears. Wouldn't she understand the truth?

Not being able to control your emotions is a sign of immaturity.

"I have the best brother in the world. I won't get hurt. Having a brother is enough for me." She hugged Gu Xihao's arm and smiled sweetly.

"Yeah." Gu Xihao touched her head. He was already a young man, and his sister was also growing up. They were not fragile people. They had burdens on their shoulders. They had faced too many things independently and were not that dependent on their parents. This was also a good thing.

The brother and sister who had not been home for many days did not know that their parents were sent back to Xiaoyuewan Village by Gu Shaoye the next day, and people were sent to guard them strictly. They did not receive any notification from Beijing, and the two went nowhere else except Xiaoyuewan Village.

Du Xianniang, who was sitting in the carriage, had a gloomy face: "Husband, has it really come to a point where it cannot be reversed? I can go out and explain."

"How are you going to explain? What do you want to explain? Did you not say those words, or did you not say them?" Gu Liqi lowered his eyelids and did not look at her. He sighed in a low voice, "After all, we are the ones who harmed the child."

"I didn't mean to harm Hao'er. I didn't mean it. I really didn't do it on purpose. Husband, you have to believe me." Du Xianniang was very panicked. She felt like something important had left her and she would never get it back.

Gu Lieqi raised his head and looked at her directly: "The harm to Hao Ge'er was unintentional, what about Xian'er?"

"Why is that girl everywhere? What does it have to do with Xian'er? There is no news about Xian'er circulating outside." Du Xianniang didn't understand what was going on and retorted directly.

Gu Lieqi's eyebrows were furrowed into a "川" shape, then slowly relaxed. He held Du Xianniang's hand and said softly, "My dear, do you remember how Xian'er looked when she was born? She was small and soft. Because our family was poor at that time, the child looked like a cat when she was born. We were so happy to see that she survived healthily."

Du Xianniang's memories were also brought to the past.

"Later, Xian'er grew up slowly. It was she who took the naughty Hao'er to school. For her brother, the little girl stayed alone outside the school. Because of the teachings of the old immortal in her dream, life at home changed drastically. What kind of life did we live in the past? What kind of life do we live now? My wife, all this is brought to us by Xian'er." There was too much helplessness in Gu Lieqi's tone. Du Xianniang couldn't pretend not to know. Her lips moved, and finally said: "I didn't say anything to her."

"You didn't say it, but you did it. My wife, we only have these two children in this life, only these two, is that too many?" Seeing that she still didn't realize her bias, Gu Lieqi let go of her hand and said firmly: "I, Gu Lieqi, will only have two children in this life, Xian'er and Hao'er."

Du Xianniang snorted coldly: "If you have it in the future, will you still not want it?"

Gu Lieqi looked at her steadily and said again: "I, Gu Lieqi, will only have two children in this life, Xian'er and Hao'er."

That day, he stumbled to Uncle Ye's house and told him the story. Uncle Ye slapped him on the spot: "What are the two children that other families are so eager for in your eyes? Is it wrong to fight for your wealth and glory? Or is it wrong to support your family? If other families knew that their children had a fairy master, they would not know how to respect her, but you are so short-sighted that you only want to get more benefits from her. It is really unfortunate for my Gu family to have descendants like you."

Gu Lieqi wanted to say that he had never had such thoughts, but Gu Shaoye seemed to see through his heart and continued, "Don't push the responsibility. Yes, it was your wife who said that, but if you hadn't been indulging her, would she be so ignorant of the seriousness of the matter and have such greedy thoughts? It's not wrong to love your wife, but loving your wife doesn't mean not correcting her in time when you know she might make mistakes, but leaving her alone. What's the point of you coming to me when the matter has become known to everyone? Can I turn back time, or can I stop the world from talking? Look at Tong Mingyan and his wife, and then compare yourselves. Are your eyes blinded by shit and urine?"

With a plop, Gu Lieqi knelt on the ground with his knees straight: "Uncle Ye, please, please help the two children."

After saying that, he kept kowtowed on the ground. Gu Shaoye was his only hope now. He didn't dare to think about Tong Mingyan, nor did he dare to go there. Tong Mingyan and his wife were very kind to their two children. They had eyes and could see it. If they knew about these things, they would be very angry.

"Take your wife away from here and go back to Yin County. Your hearts can only hold that place. Don't come to see the children again without their consent. Have a few more children while you are still young, and don't worry about these two." Gu Shaoye's eyes were full of helplessness and disappointment, but his words were like thunder, shaking his internal organs.

After a while, he kowtowed several times again, then raised his head and said, "Xian'er and Hao'er are both good children. I'll ask you to take good care of them in the future. I will only have these two children in this life. Uncle Ye, please help me cut off my fertility function. I know you can do it."

"You don't need to worry about the two children. Their abilities are beyond your imagination, and their interpersonal relationships are far beyond what you have seen. Without you, perhaps they can walk a more balanced path. But about what you just said, are you sure you want to do this?" Gu Shaoye stared at him and asked.

"I'm sure!" Gu Liqi nodded heavily.

"No regrets?" Gu Shaoye asked again.

"I will never regret it. Having Xian'er and Hao'er in this life is enough! I hope Uncle Ye will help me." Gu Liqi's voice was hoarse, but his tone was firmer than ever.

"Okay!" Gu Shaoye finally showed a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, and casually took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it to him: "This medicine is strong, you may have to suffer a little, but the effect is amazing, take one pill, and your fate with children in this life will end. Are you sure you don't regret it?"

Gu Lieqi opened the lid of the porcelain bottle, poured out the pills inside, and swallowed them without saying anything. In just a few seconds, he felt a cramping pain in his lower abdomen, as if it was burning, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans popped out of his forehead. His hands unconsciously clawed at the ground, and his facial expression gradually distorted, but he gritted his teeth and endured it, only letting out a few soft groans.

Gu Shaoye truly admired his nephew. He thought he was a manly man, decisive and resolute, and not hopeless.

The next day, Gu Lieqi was sent home by Gu Shaoye in a carriage. He was accompanied by two young but skilled cousins ​​who were also their guards for the year. To put it more bluntly, they were their guardians, protecting their safety and monitoring their words and deeds. Gu Lieqi had no objection, at least this way, he could still learn about the children's situation from them.

Du Xianniang made a scene, but when her two cousins ​​said that if she continued like this, they had ways to make people disappear quietly without arousing suspicion, she was frightened and wept silently while packing her things. They didn't even get to see their child for the last time before they were forcibly sent away.

All along the way, Gu Lieqi was speeding up what Uncle Ye said. Uncle Ye's words were like a blunt knife cutting his flesh, and the pain went deep into his bones. After many days, when he thought about it, he still felt cold in his heart.

Du Xianniang, however, didn't care and thought to herself that there was no hope for the two older ones. She and her husband were still young, so having a few more wouldn't be a big deal. Even though she was told that they had little luck with having children, there were always exceptions.

The couple each had their own thoughts and when they occasionally talked, they only talked about food, clothing, housing, transportation and household matters.

Gu Lieyu and Gu Liegong, who were riding on their horses, both felt regretful. They thought that Qi's wife was too short-sighted. Otherwise, with a daughter like the head of the family, everyone would worship her as an ancestor.
