Chapter 265 Han's Mother Dies
Chapter 265 Han's Mother Dies
After Chen Yan went to the farm, the family was completely immersed in depression. Tang Erlang had been taking care of his health, as well as his children. His little daughter was weak and sickly, and would easily catch a fever if she was not careful, so the family doctor was asked to stay in Tang Erlang's yard all day to treat him.
Gu Yao was also afraid that her daughter would not survive, so she invited an imperial physician from the palace to prescribe medicine for her every few days. As a result, her daughter lived to be almost one year old.
Seeing that his daughter was always sick, Tang Erlang became even more hateful towards Chen Yan. Unfortunately, he was locked up in the farm and couldn't do anything. However, he didn't stay in the Gu family for more than ten years in vain.
He specifically asked his servants to bribe the people on the farm and said all kinds of nonsense in Chen Yan's house all day long.
There is also a woman who specifically seduces him, hoping that Chen Yan will make a mistake.
Although Gu Yao and Gu Yang also sent people to watch over it, it was impossible to keep an eye on it 24 hours a day, so there would always be some omissions.
Even if he was discovered, Tang Erlang was not afraid. He just wanted revenge and vent his anger for his daughter. Otherwise, how could he be his daughter's father?
Fortunately, Jin Jin's family doctor and the imperial physician were very good at medicine, and they were able to take good care of the father and daughter.
Although his daughter's health improved a lot afterwards and she still needed to take medicine, she was very happy and she hugged Gu Yao and cried for a long time.
Gu Yao felt quite guilty towards him, after all, Chen Yan had harmed him, but Chen Yan had no choice but to move to the farm because of Gu Yang.
Gu Yao felt quite guilty towards Tang Erlang, so she gave him many rewards, even land, which made Tang Erlang feel much better.
Gu Yang also matured a lot because of this incident. He has always focused on the family business. He even had an official in the second half of the year.
Gu Yao was very satisfied with Gu Yang's honesty. He was afraid that Gu Yang would be unhappy because of Chen Yan, which would affect her work.
Fortunately, she has changed a lot now. She no longer lingers in the backyard and even asks about some things at home, which makes Lin Wulang very satisfied.
Although he didn't like Chen Yan, he still liked Gu Yang very much. After all, adults are adults and children are children.
: I see that Gu Yang has become more honest and steady. Next time, don't scold him. After all, she has grown up and become a father. Give her some face. "
Gu Yao pouted: "I didn't scold him every day. If she didn't do anything wrong, I wouldn't say anything to her. She has been promoted now, and he has grown up now.
Seeing her family prospering, Gu Yao was very happy, and then she continued to ask Lin Wulang to arrange a marriage for her children so that they would not miss out on a good family.
It was at this time that she received a letter from Gu Ping. Gu Ping knew that something had happened at home, so he wrote many envelopes and even sent a lot of local specialties.
Gu Ping stayed outside for several years, but at least his political achievements were good, and he was even transferred to other places to serve as a local official.
Seeing Gu Ping doing so well outside, Gu Yao showed Lin Wulang the letter written by Ah Ping. She is living so well now, are you relieved? "
Lin Wulang took the letter and read it for a while. He was very happy: "Wife, I am so happy, but what do you think we should do with Achen and the others? Should we let them stay in the capital forever? Not with Aping and the others?"
After hearing this, Gu Yao sighed: "A Ping also said that we should let them stay at home. Besides, she is not very stable outside. She is always transferred here and there. She can get a better education in the capital. Besides, isn't A Chen about to die? When she passes the examination to become a scholar or a juren, let her go to her mother's place to study."
They really wanted to see Gu Ping at the beginning, but after a while they missed him less.
Time can change everything, not to mention that Gu Ping had several more children outside.
After hearing this, Lin Wulang felt very guilty: "If the conditions were not bad at the beginning, we would never have kept Achen and the other two children at home. Now they are all strangers to their parents."
When Gu Ping was sent away, Gu Chen was already a few years old. But it has been so many years now, and Gu Chen is about to take the imperial examination. When he asked about her parents' information, the information was a little unfamiliar. Although he was very grateful, it was not much after all.
Seeing him crying, Gu Yao put her arm around his shoulders and said, "Okay, stop crying. Ah Ping will be back in two years. Or wait until Ah Chen passes the imperial examination and let her go to her parents first."
That was all they could think of. After all, they were still young, and Gu Ping had a lot of things to do, so he was not at ease letting them go.
Lin Wulang took good care of all the little things that Gu Ping had left in the capital. Although he felt sorry for them because they could not be with their wives, at least their lives were carefree, prosperous and glorious.
These young servants have now come to terms with it. After all, they live a good life in the Gu family and have children. Even if they no longer have the love and favor of their wives in the future, they will live well.
Moreover, the share given to them by the Gu family was generous, and even their children were very filial, which made them full of expectations.
Han Yuqing is doing well here. Although he is also worried about Gu Yu's marriage, at least he has his family to worry about it with him, so he is relatively calm about what is happening at home.
But he received a letter that frightened him to death.
When I woke up, I saw Gu Yao's worried eyes and hugged her waist and cried.
"What happened to Yuqing? Who? Tell me quickly, I will do it for you.
This was the second time she saw Han Yuqing crying so miserably. The first time was when her father passed away.
Could it be that someone in the Han family has died again? That shouldn't be the case. His mother is in good health, how could she die? His father died before because he was too weak, so he couldn't bear it.
Han Yuqing raised his head and choked up, saying, "My wife and mother passed away. I want to go back."
Han Yuqing doesn't have much affection for his mother now, but she is his relative after all, his mother's family. He knows that if his mother is gone, he probably won't have anyone too close to him in the Han family.
"How could it be? My mother-in-law should be in good health, right? How could she die suddenly?"
Although Han's mother is old, she has taken good care of herself and it is impossible for her to die now.
"The letter said he had caught a cold and couldn't be saved. They said he died suddenly because he was too old. My wife, I want to go back."
Gu Yao knew that he had to go back. After all, as a monk, he had not been back for many years. His father passed away before, and he never went back after that.
"I'll arrange for An An to go back with you. As the pillar of the family and the granddaughter of the Han family, she should go back."
What's more, she knew that after Han's mother's death, many people in the Han family had become estranged from Han Yuqing.
Because of Han's mother's matter, Gu An naturally had to take a vacation. After all, this is my grandmother.
Seeing Han Yuqing's sad face on the road, he quickly said, "Dad, don't worry, I'm here. Besides, it's a happy funeral for grandma, maybe she will live a better life in the next life."
She had no choice. After all, several elderly people in her family had died. What's more, No. 8 seldom met Han's mother and they had no feelings for each other. On the contrary, her grandfather sometimes wrote to her every day, and she had deeper feelings for him.
She was also devastated when her grandfather passed away, so she felt bad seeing her father in pain.
"Your grandmother was very good to me before and always spoiled me. Moreover, when I said I wanted to marry your mother, your grandmother and the others all agreed and even gave me a lot of dowry. They also always supported me behind my back. Although I know she was also doing it for her own benefit, her love for me was genuine. Now that she is gone, I really have no one closer to me in the Han family."
He only has his father as a son, and he has no brothers or sisters from the same father, so he is really scared.
The Han family is his home, but without Father Han and Mother Han, is the Han family still his home?
He has been married for decades, and the Gu family is still his home. He will be buried in the Gu family's ancestral tomb in the future. But no matter what, the Han family is also his home where he has lived for more than ten years. He has lived in the Han family since he was born. How come it is no longer his home once his biological parents are gone?
Gu Yao originally wanted to come with Han Yuqing, but she was very busy at work, and now was an important time for her in the Ministry of Industry, so she could not take leave.
So Gu An was asked to accompany Han Yuqing. Han Yuqing understood why Gu Yao couldn't come. After all, the court would not release her, so she couldn't ask for leave even if she wanted to.
Han's mother is Gu An's grandmother, so No. 8 naturally has to observe mourning, and Gu's family must also observe mourning. After all, they are relatives.
They were all in a depressed mood along the way. After all, her grandmother had passed away, so of course she was very sad.
After walking for almost half a month, they finally arrived at Han's house. Han's mother was already itching, so Han Yuqing and the others burned incense for her.
The county town is a bit too far from the capital, so the Han family understands that they came late.
The head of the Han family now is the eldest daughter of Han's mother's second husband, and Jin still has some sisterly feelings for Han Yuqing.
After all, the Han family has become a wealthy family in the county with the help of the Gu family. Even the provincial capital has become famous for the Han family, and their business is spread all over the country.
The higher the status of the Gu family, the higher the status of their Han family. The Han family has even produced several scholars, and one or two have become county magistrates, so they are now slowly transforming.
For all that Han Yuqing brought, Miss Han naturally had to please Han Yuqing.
The Gu family is thriving, and now the eldest daughter of the Gu family has become a high-ranking official, and even her niece is the same, so naturally Miss Han has to curry favor with the Gu family.
"It's great that you guys can come back, brother. I'll arrange for you to go in and rest immediately. You can stay in the Han family for a few more days. If mother sees this, she will be very happy too."
Han Yuqing burst into tears when she saw her mother's tablet. After listening to Miss Han's words, she choked up and said, "It's all my fault for being unfilial. I came too late and didn't see my mother for the last time."
"Don't say that. Mother already knew that you could come so quickly. Besides, the capital is so far away from our home. It's great that you can come back so quickly. Don't blame yourself."
Seeing how exhausted they were, Miss Han felt comforted. Although Han Yuqing felt more estranged from the Han family without her father Han, this was still his mother's home after all. So she thought that she should keep in touch with her eldest brother more in the future.
Looking at Han Yuqing's haggard appearance, you can tell that he is not young anymore. Maybe in another ten years, he will be gone. So for the sake of the Han family, he must keep in touch with the children of the Gu family.
Gu An had a very good impression of the Han family. In her heart, the Han family was her maternal family. The Han family would even send a sum of money to her father every month. It could be said that Jin's life in the Han and Gu families was richer than anyone else's.
The Han family is in business and has almost all kinds of rare treasures. They would send some of their good things to Han Yuqing.
Although what Gu Yao gave them were good things, Gu Yao was an official after all and had to be cautious no matter how he did business, but it was different for the Han family.
Han Yuqing's dowry was a huge sum of money. Even Gu An was surprised when she saw Han Yuqing's dowry. In her heart, her father was the richest man in the Han family.
Han Yuqing and Gu An stayed at the Han family for about a month or two, and developed feelings for the Han family's children.
Han Yuqing is a married woman from the Han family. There are traces of his childhood here, and he still has this yard. It was specially reserved for him by the Han family, which makes him feel very comfortable.
"Dean, we have been here for two months. Shouldn't we leave now? Otherwise, mother will miss you."
Han Yuqing smiled and said, "I'd better stay for a few more days. I finally came back, and I want to talk more about my mother and father's ranking."
Han Yuqing spent most of his time at the ancestral hall accompanying his father and mother.
After so many years in the Gu family, he hasn't been with his mother and father like this for a long time, so he doesn't want to go back so soon.
Seeing her father's haggard appearance, Gu An felt uncomfortable and had to agree. After all, when she returned to the Gu family, her father would no longer have any thoughts about her, and she didn't want to be so cruel.
Miss Han was very happy that Han Yuqing had stayed in the Han family for so long. During this period, Gu An and his friends had received the highest living standard in the Han family.
Looking at the extravagance of the Han family, Gu An was shocked, but the Han family was also in mourning, so although it was relatively extravagant, they still followed the standards of mourning.
Gu An said to his attendant, "I didn't expect the Han family to be so rich. I always thought they were quite wealthy, but it seems the Han family underestimated them."
Gu Xiaohe smiled and said, "Sir, the Han family has been doing business for so many years, and with the support of our Gu family, they are naturally very profitable. Just like you said before, didn't you? The third wife's dowry was so large, of course it was also taken from the Han family, so, the Han family can be said to be the richest family in this county."
Gu Xiaohe also felt that the Han family was very rich and was very envious.
"No wonder they can send us so much money and stuff every month. They really know how to do business."
