2730 Chapter 2731-explain in detail
He could let master Shu and fatty Wang discuss it. This would be the best way to protect Shu Yan.
Gu Xin’s heart ached for the lady.
Master Shu was a little confused by Gu Xin’s stare and asked in confusion, ” “Third young lady, is there a problem?”
No. Gu Xin shook her head before asking, ” how’s the relationship between master Shu and Madam Wang? ”
Master Shu was stunned. They were talking about his daughter, why did he ask about his sister?
But now, he had complete trust in Gu Xin and there was nothing to hide about his relationship with his sister.
He sighed and said,”Xiao Cheng’s mother is the only daughter in the family. She’s the second child in the family.” Whether it’s me, the Big Brother, or Xiao Cheng’s third or fourth uncle, we’ve always been infinitely tolerant of his mother. Whatever Xiao Cheng’s mother wants, we’ll do our best to give it to her. Back then, she had fallen for her brother-in-law. At that time, her brother-in-law was a poor scholar. Generations of his family had relied on the imperial examination, but he was the only one who had passed. However, the expenses of studying were huge, and their family was extremely poor. Although our family is a merchant family, if we have a relative who is an official, many things will be more convenient. However, we don’t want Xiao Cheng’s mother to sacrifice herself for the family. Moreover, brother-in-law was only a high scholar back then, not even a scholar.”
“In the end, we compromised. My father brought us three brothers and called my brother-in-law out for a drink. He only told him that no matter how high his position was in the future, he could not give convenience to the Shu family, but he could not let down Xiao Cheng’s mother. If he dares to make Xiao Cheng’s mother suffer, no matter how high and powerful he is at that time, our family will take his dog life even if we have to spend all our money!”
“After that, father and mother called us three brothers together and talked about the dowry for Xiao Cheng’s mother. Half of the Shu family’s assets were given to Xiao Cheng’s mother as a dowry. He wasn’t discussing it with us, he was just informing us. However, we brothers have no objections.”
“That’s why, no matter if it’s me or Xiao Cheng’s third uncle or fourth uncle, we’ll always protect Xiao Cheng’s mother. Even if she has been married for more than twenty years.”
Gu Xin nodded her head, understanding the relationship between these siblings. It should be like the relationship between her third aunt, first uncle’s father, and fourth uncle!
However, the Shu family had a very harmonious sibling relationship, while the Gu family always wanted to treat third aunt as a brother, not a sister.
Seeing that Gu Xin didn’t say anything, master Shu asked, ” “Third young lady, I don’t know why you suddenly asked this.”
master Shu, you have such a good relationship with Madam Wang. I would like to ask, if the murderer of Madam Wang is the person who saved miss Shu and raised her for ten years, what would you do? ” Gu Xin asked.
Master Shu was stunned.
Gu Xin looked at him without saying a word and let him digest it himself.
After a long time, the carriage had already stopped at the inn’s entrance, and great elder Shu finally said,”Third young lady, can you explain it to me in detail?”
Gu Xin nodded and agreed. I was planning to let old Wang tell you after he was done with his work. Miss Shu also asked where the person who saved her was, but I was worried that miss Shu wouldn’t be able to accept it. Moreover, she already had a head injury, so I didn’t tell her. However, I thought about it just now. Great master Shu is in good health, so this matter will eventually be known. Perhaps great master Shu will be able to discuss with old Wang on how to protect miss Shu.”
