2719 He missed her and didn’t miss her
“Eldest uncle has an heir, three sons. Therefore, maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother did not force him to take in concubines or force eldest uncle to have children. They didn’t care about what first aunt did with cousin. It’s just that when I go to their house, I will run over to eldest aunt and cousin’s place to play. At other times, only eldest uncle likes to go to their place. It was like an ordinary family of three living together. When I was young, I was silly and didn’t know how to look at things. When I passed away, all my uncles, aunts, and cousins didn’t dare to provoke me because my father was a government official. I’ll go to whichever uncle’s place I want to go to. No one will say anything.”
“Later, as I grew up, I realized that my other cousins all thought that I was a fool. They thought that I was fat and didn’t want to play with me. Unlike my aunt’s brothers and sisters. Only eldest uncle’s cousin is true to me. After I beat her up that day, I felt uncomfortable when I saw her bleeding. I don’t know why, but I suddenly thought of the time when I was eight years old. I went to my maternal grandfather’s house and asked my cousin to take me out to play on the streets. In the end, I had an argument with others. At that time, there were other cousins and a few young masters from their Yamen. My cousins tried to stop us on the surface, but they were actually instigating us to fight. When I was being held down and beaten, my cousin rushed over to protect me. That time, my cousin’s head was also broken.”
“Because my father had good luck as an official at that time and was classmates with the magistrate of that place, this matter was reduced to a small one. However, her cousin was still punished to kneel in the ancestral hall after her head was broken. I felt very apologetic, so I knelt down with her. Maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother couldn’t bear to see me suffer, so they didn’t punish cousin. That day, when I injured that silly girl, the image of my cousin standing in front of me back then appeared in my mind.”
“That’s why I thought she was my cousin.”
Fatty Wang would occasionally think about this over the past few days. If Gu Xin didn’t ask Dong Xue to take care of silly ya, he would have sent someone to take care of silly ya.
“Then your uncle will definitely recognize you. He was even able to make your maternal grandfather and grandmother yield and agree to him marrying your first aunt. That shows that he has deep feelings for your first aunt. Your mother may have forgotten, but your first uncle will definitely not forget.” After Gu Xin heard this, she thought for a while and asked, ” will your other aunt come? ”
Fatty Wang shook his head,”No.” The other eldest aunt was in charge of the Family Matters and usually didn’t leave Jiangnan. Last year, his eldest uncle had brought his unmarried youngest son here. It should be the same this year.”
“Alright then.” Gu Xin said. Your first uncle and the others are coming tomorrow, right? I’ll go to silly girl’s place later and see how I can wake her up. She had been unconscious for two days. It was time for her to wake up. I’ll bring your first uncle over after he pays his respects tomorrow. Don’t tell him yet, let him see it for himself. You do your thing, leave the rest to me. ”
Fatty Wang also felt that this was the most appropriate.
He hoped that silly girl was his cousin, but at the same time, he didn’t want her to be.
In any case, he felt conflicted.
After chatting with Gu Xin for a while, fatty Wang got up and left for the mourning hall.
Gu Xin, on the other hand, stood up and went to the inn. Silly ya was staying at the inn now, and Dong Xue was watching over her. Gu Xin would definitely go and take a look during the two days when she left the mountain.
