1351st: Mother and Child Get Together (2)
The genius remembers the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! Gu Zhen muttered, as if afraid of offending Nie Xun.
"I heard that you came to Xiangyang County earlier, so I stopped by to have a look."
She said it by the way, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that she put a lot of thought into this outfit!
In order to make her complexion look better, Gu Zhen specially put on delicate makeup.
Her foundation is very good, and she has been carefully raised and groomed over the years, and she is only twenty-four or five-year-old.
No wonder Zhu Qingning misunderstood just now.
Nie Xun sighed, "Mrs. Liu has seen it too..."
Gu Zhen's complexion turned pale, Nie Xun only said half a sentence, but the rest of the sentence was definitely chasing guests.
"You don't want to see me for... me?"
In a trance, she felt that she could hardly breathe due to the heartache, and Zhu Qingning was sweating for her because of her ugly face.
Nie Xun said, "It's not that I don't want to see you, it's just...you and I are not on the same road, so what if we see you?"
The calmer his tone was, the more uncomfortable Gu Zhen felt in her heart, and the tears that had been so hard to stop collapsed instantly.
"Why is it not from the same way?" Gu Zhen grasped Nie Xun's shoulders with both hands, and cried with her head down, "Do you know that what happened back then was not what I wanted? Every time I think about it, I wish I could cut Meng Zhan to death. If it wasn't for him, how could you and I have been separated for so many years?"
As a wife of no status, she is indeed useless, unable to protect her son, let him be stolen by a concubine, and almost die in the cold underground, and will be trampled by thousands of people before and after his death. Gu Zhen hated it too, how could she not hate it?
Nie Xun didn't recognize her, and she didn't force her, but why didn't he even give him a chance to make up?
Zhu Qingning on the side was getting more and more unhappy the more he listened, his eyes were full of suspicion, and he secretly looked at her husband.
"I know all these things, but so what? What should have happened has already happened." Nie Xun said, "Mrs. Liu, look away. You can just pretend... that baby boy was buried alive back then. I am the adopted son of the Zhongzhao Nie family, not the second son of Meng Zhan."
For Nie Xun, nourishing kindness is far greater than giving birth to kindness.
Gu Zhen is pitiful, but Nie Xun deserves what he deserves?
His life was not only caused by the woman in front of him, and what she missed was not just a son.
How are they different from strangers other than blood ties?
He didn't owe Gu Zhen, and Gu Zhen didn't owe him, so it doesn't make any sense to make up for it.
Nie Xun is willing to treat Gu Zhen as an elder, but he can't force himself to love her as much as a foster mother.
The relationship between parents and children cannot be determined by blood relationship.
Listening to their conversation, Zhu Qingning realized that the "Mrs. Liu" in front of her was Liu She's stepwife and her husband's biological mother.
At this time, the daughter in his arms also cried.
Babies don't care about adults, they cry when they want, regardless of occasion, place and time.
Seeing this, Gu Zhen immediately held back the sobs in her throat, and then wiped away the tears on her face with a handkerchief, forgetting about the makeup.
Zhu Qingning touched it, and said in a low voice, "I probably peed, so I'm going to call the nanny here, madam, would you like to take care of it?"
Naturally, Gu Zhen couldn't wish for it. When the baby's unique milk fragrance wafted into her nostrils, the tears that had finally stopped poured out again.
The baby girl in front of me is the daughter of that child
time flies.
Gu Zhen didn't know whether she should be happy or sad.
Nie Xun was very helpless with his wife's behavior.
He wanted to cut off Gu Zhen's thoughts directly, as long as the two families maintain a superficial friendship, there is no need for a deep friendship, and there is no need to talk about relatives.
Gu Zhen coaxed the child with her head down, her voice was like a mosquito, as if her voice would make Nie Xun unhappy.
Faced with this situation, even a rational person like Nie Xun couldn't help feeling a little bit of compassion, and his peaceful heart was also disturbed.
"I came here this time without any intention of forcing you to recognize each other. I just wanted to see how you are doing. Is there anything I can help with..." Gu Zhen spoke in a low voice,
The more she is like this, Nie Xun is not easy to be tough.
Nie Xun said, "I'm fine."
Gu Zhen asked in an almost begging tone, "Then... can I come and see this child from time to time?"
Nie Xun said, "I'm afraid it will be inconvenient."
Gu Zhen's face turned completely pale, as if someone had stabbed her heart several times with a knife.
Zhu Qingning came over and just heard these two sentences, and gave her husband an angry look.
Why do you only speak half?
She said, "Madam Liu likes this child very much?"
Gu Zhen knew that Zhu Qingning was her daughter-in-law, but unfortunately her son couldn't recognize her, let alone her daughter-in-law.
"Naturally I like it tightly."
Zhu Qingning said, "If Mrs. Liu likes it, is it okay for me to bring the child to the house to bother me when I have time?"
Nie Xun's complexion changed, but he didn't interrupt her words.
Gu Zhen nodded quickly, couldn't help but said, "How can this be considered a nuisance? If you come, you can live forever."
"Cheng Yun's status is a bit...to prove his innocence, so it's not appropriate to publicize it. The visitors in the house are all pushy. Mrs. Liu, please don't take what he just said to heart, that's how he is." Zhu Qingning said with a smile, "Let the nanny carry the baby down for a change?"
After what Zhu Qingning said, Gu Zhen felt better, and felt hopeful.
She handed the child to the nurse who had been waiting for a long time, and after thinking about it, she took off the bracelet on her hand.
"I came here in a hurry today, and I didn't bring any greeting gifts. I saw that the child is destined to be with me, and I liked it at the first glance." Gu Zhen asked Zhu Qingning to accept the gift for the child, and said humbly, "This bracelet has been with me for many years, some years , don’t be disgusted.”
Zhu Qingning has good eyesight, so she can see that the gift from Gu Zhen is really good.
Since it was given to her granddaughter by her grandma, she accepted it politely, so as not to make her feel sad again.
Reluctantly watching the child being carried away by the nanny, Gu Zhen only looked away when there was no one left.
"I also understand Lan Ting's temper, if it's because of this..."
Nie Xun knew what she was going to say, and flatly refused, "No."
Gu Zhen could only swallow the rest of the words back to her stomach, Zhu Qingning felt helpless when she saw that the atmosphere that had finally eased became stiff again.
"Then why?"
Nie Xun said directly, "I have no plans to become an official again."
"Why?" Gu Zhen didn't seem to expect him to give such an answer, and couldn't help asking, "Could it be that Lanting didn't want it?"
Nie Xun is Jiang Ji's nominal and blood cousin.
As for the family, not to mention completely eccentric, but there are secret cares.
The winner is the king and the bandit is defeated, Huang Song has already been defeated, so what's wrong with Nie Xun, as an old minister, choosing his master and assistant again?
Nie Xun lowered his eyes and said, "No, it's because of me."
No matter how bad Yuan Xin was, no matter what quarrel he had with Nie Xun, the only person who could deal with him was Huang Song.
However, Nie Xun crossed Huang Song and planned to kill Yuan Xin.
No matter what his reason for doing this is, the bottom line is that he betrayed Huang Song.
At the same time, this is also the most taboo move by the superiors.
The courtiers fought to death because of personal quarrels, who knew that they would not respond?
When Nie Xun made up his mind to kill Yuan Xin, he had already made a decision.
If it was Huang Song who won, he would resign from Huang Song and retire completely.
If it was Jiang Ji who won, he would no longer be an official, and he might as well be a teacher like his father-in-law.
