Chapter 385 (1/2)
Si Mu came back on time for the farewell dinner at the governor's house. Instead of looking after the boat, he went straight to find a place to sit down. He didn't move to the boat until the old lady came in.
Si Mu was very filial to the old lady. He was afraid that the old lady would see the disharmony between him and Gu Qingzhou, so he took an attitude.
The old lady came, too.
In addition to the people in the mansion, there are also military generals and Dong Jinxuan's father and son.
Mrs. Si specially set up four tables in the flower hall.
Gu Qingzhou sat next to the old lady.
The old lady kindly asked Gu Qingzhou, ”what's the matter? Is there any movement?”
This is the hope that Gu Qingzhou is pregnant.
Si Mu was beside him, and his eyes and eyebrows did not move.
Gu Qingzhou was embarrassed and didn't know how to explain for a long time.
The old lady understood and said to Si mu, ”when you get married, you should accompany the canoe more. Let others do other things! It's more important to pass on the family line than anything!”
Then she glanced at the governor.
The superintendent smiled: ”Mom...”
”Don't call me mummy, I can't afford it!” The old lady said coldly.
A table full of people stopped.
Everyone knows why the old lady speaks like that.
The news of Si Xingpei's expulsion was kept from the old lady until the new year's Eve, when Si Xingpei didn't come back, the old lady knew that things were bad.
Si Xingpei used to call even if he didn't come back.
There is no telephone this year, and the people are good. There is no shadow for several months.
The old lady didn't ask the people in the military governor's house, but beat around the Bush, and she finally knew it.
She was so angry that she smashed the governor with tea lamps.
The superintendent said, ”Mom, he's fine. He's fine in Yunnan. I heard that Cheng Zhihong wants to give him his daughter. The Cheng family is several times more powerful than us. He may come back after getting married.”
The old lady was skeptical.
Anger is anger. If this is the double spring of the Si family's father and son, it's not bad. At least she will have more grandchildren and daughter-in-law.
After thinking about it, the old lady decided that Si Xingpeng was all right, so she no longer worried, but she was still angry with the supervisor.
Today, the governor is about to take office in Nanjing, and the old lady's anger has not subsided.
”Grandma, don't be angry. Dad will come back regularly to be filial to you even if he goes to Nanjing.” Gu Qingzhou comforted.
The old lady only smiled at Gu Qingzhou: ”I don't care about him. I can't help being a senior official. It's your younger generation. Hurry to add a great grandson to me, and I'm happy!”
The atmosphere revived.
Mrs. Si and her second aunt joked, ”by the end of the year, the family will be able to add more people. The old lady is not surprised. The light boat is still very competitive.”
Gu Qingzhou thought of Si Xingyu at this moment.
She once scolded Si Xingpei for being dirty, but Si Xingpei told her that it was dirty for men and women to sleep. Why is it sacred to carry on the family line?
This is a paradox.
For example, everyone present urged to add children. Don't they know that they need a combination of men and women before giving birth?
Why is it dirty and mysterious for men and women to sleep together, while adding children is a great joy?
Gu Qingzhou didn't want to find out about it. She just remembered what Si Xingpei had said.
He sees the world more thoroughly than a canoe.
The old lady's anger and the problem of adding great grandchildren opened the gap of Gu Qingzhou's memory.
What Si Xingpei said and did surged into Gu Qingzhou's mind without warning. She couldn't stop it. Those memories poured in.
”You're such a fool. He killed your closest man and you're thinking of him!” A voice roared in her mind.
Because of this roar, Gu Qingzhou thought of nanny and master.
At this time, the memory in my mind was even more tumultuous. Gu Qingzhou worked very hard to control his mood and didn't cry on the spot.
She went out halfway.
Under the eaves of the house, Dong Fangming and Gu Fei see it again.
This dinner, Gu Qingzhou tasted like chewing wax.
When she went back, she was also kind.
Si Mu drives and Gu Qingzhou sits in the co pilot's seat.
”Did dad say anything?” Si Mu knew that Gu Qingzhou came to the governor's house yesterday. Seeing that she was listless today, he thought the governor scolded her.
Gu Qingzhou returns to his senses.
She can't say that the supervisor handed over the final defense of the military government to her.
This will damage Si Mu's self-esteem as a major commander of the military government.
”No.” Gu Qingzhou said lazily.
Si Mu wants to talk and stops.
The next morning, they went to the railway station to see the governor off.
Gu Qingzhou stands beside Si mu.
The governor and his wife told the couple to manage their house well.
Dong Ming hugged Si Fangfei in public for a long time until the supervisor couldn't see it and coughed heavily.
”Goodbye.” Si Fangfei immediately pushed him away.
Dong Ming's eyes were full of tears.
The train left Yuecheng.
When the crowd returned, Si Mu spoke to a deputy general. Gu Qingzhou stood next to him. Dong Ming came over.
