Chapter 152
When she asked this question, including Chen Jiu'er, was stunned. She looked at Gu Chusheng carefully for a moment, but still didn't know what was the relationship between this person and her family. Gu Chusheng saw her doubts and explained: "I met your father-in-law's father before, and he asked me to find you and ask you how you are. Now you are the only woman here..."
Gu Chusheng pursed his lips, but Chen Jiu'er reacted. She blushed and lowered her head: "There really is no one else at home."
Gu Chusheng didn't speak. After a while, he sighed and said, "I understand, you go down first, and I will let you go down and rest."
With that said, Gu Chusheng turned his head and said to Chu Yu, "Nowadays, there are so many things to do..."
"It's okay," Chu Yu waved, "I'll help."
Now that Quan Yong is indeed understaffed, and there are more patients than healthy people, Chu Yu followed Gu Chusheng to fight Wei Qingping, and at midnight, the two returned to the government office.
Wei Qingping fell asleep, and after Gu Chusheng went to wash up, he went to see Chen Jiu'er.
It was midnight now, and it was not appropriate for Gu Chusheng to see Chen Jiu'er, but Chu Yu didn't sleep, so he took him to see Chen Jiu'er. Gu Chusheng listened to Chen Jiu'er talking about what happened at home, and his heart sank one by one. After listening to Chen Jiu'er's words, he sighed and said, "Since there is no one at home, I will not reply to the old man."
It is better to hold on to hope than the desperation of a white-haired person to a black-haired person.
Chen Jiu'er pursed her lips, and after Gu Chusheng comforted Chen Jiu'er a few words, he stood up and led Chu Yu out.
However, after walking a few steps, Gu Chusheng heard Chen Jiu'er say behind him, "Master Gu!"
Gu Chusheng stopped, turned around, and saw Chen Jiu'er looking at him with tears in his eyes: "Master Gu, can you be a concubine and say a few words to Master Gu in private?"
Gu Chusheng hesitated for a moment, looked up at Chu Yu, and Chu Yu took the initiative to walk away, leaving the two of them in the room.
Chen Jiu'er looked at Gu Chusheng and picked up the child in her arms: "Master Gu, there is a ruthless request from your concubine."
Gu Chusheng frowned, and saw Chen Jiu'er lift the child up: "My concubine knows that adults are benevolent and righteous. This child is the only bloodline of Li's family. Now that the world is chaotic, the concubine is unable to raise it..."
"You want me to adopt this child?"
Gu Chusheng frowned tightly, Chen Jiuer hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "I hope the adults will agree!"
"absurd!"
Gu Chusheng shouted: "As a mother, you are still alive, where is the reason for sending your children out?"
With that said, Gu Chusheng turned around and planned to go out. Chen Jiu'er stood up and said with a trembling voice: "Master Gu means, because this child has a mother, so don't you?"
"You are his mother," Gu Chusheng looked at her seriously: "His lunch is your responsibility. But don't worry," Gu Chusheng looked at the trembling woman and slowed down: "I will send someone to send silver to you, you Go back with him, bring back Uncle Li, and live a good life."
"What if he doesn't have a mother?"
Chen Jiu'er stubbornly said, Gu Chusheng frowned: "What the hell are you asking?"
"If one day, I have an accident," Chen Jiu'er calmed down, she stared at Gu Chusheng, and said calmly: "Then, can this child be taken in by Mr. Gu?"
Gu Chusheng looked at Chen Jiu'er, he thought, Chen Jiu'er is a woman who is wandering in troubled times, and she just wants to ask her children for support.
So he nodded and said, "Yes."
Chen Jiu'er breathed a sigh of relief, she bowed down, hugged the child, knelt on the ground, and seriously said to Gu Chusheng, thank you.
Gu Chusheng turned around and left, and when he walked to the corridor, he saw Chu Yu holding a sword waiting for him. The two walked out of the yard together, and Gu Chusheng insisted on sending Chu Yu back to the room.
"What did she say to you?"
Chu Yu was accustomed to Gu Chusheng's demeanor, and chatted casually after finding a topic. Gu Chusheng felt a little uneasy, and he said slowly, "She asked me if I could take it in..."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Chusheng reacted abruptly and shouted: "Not good!"
Then he rushed towards Chen Jiu'er's room, Chu Yu was stunned, and then chased back.
Just after returning to the yard, the two heard the baby's screaming cry, Gu Chusheng rushed in front, kicked the door open, and then saw the blood spread all over the ground, the woman fell in a pool of blood, with a stab in her chest. With a sharp blade.
The child was beside her, and he seemed to have sensed something, and he was crying so hard.
Gu Chusheng rushed over and took out the medicine and gauze from his sleeves. He has been extremely skilled in these first aids recently. Chu Yu turned around and went to Wei Qingping. Panic.
Chen Jiu'er smiled hard: "Sir..."
She said, "This child has no name yet... you... take good care of..."
"You are his mother!" Gu Chusheng roared: "How can there be a mother like you!"
Tears slowly flowed from Chen Jiu'er's eyes, and she smiled with difficulty: "Sir," her voice was as light as duckweed: "The suffering of the untouchables, the nobles are safe?"
"One life," she gasped, blood rushing frantically, rushing out from Gu Chusheng's fingers, Gu Chusheng was trembling all over, he listened to her and said, "It's my son... Half a life is safe... It's worth it."
"Sir," her eyes slowly darkened: "This big Chu... When... will it settle down?"
After asking this sentence, her whole body seemed to wither slowly along with this question.
Gu Chusheng gritted his teeth and kept his hand on her wound, trying to stop the bleeding. His whole body was trembling, and the child was beside him, as if knowing his mother's departure, he kept crying.
When Wei Qingping followed Chu Yu into the room, Chen Jiu'er had lost her heartbeat.
Gu Chusheng knelt on the spot, he still maintained the posture of saving people, Wei Qingping rushed to the side of the body, and after a quick inspection, his expression sank.
After a moment, she shook her head and stood up.
She stood up, and seeing that Gu Chusheng hadn't moved, she said, "Master Gu, the person is gone, let's go."
Gu Chusheng still didn't move, Chu Yu stepped forward, hugged the child in his arms, and patted his shoulder: "Get up."
Gu Chusheng had a slight reaction when he heard Chu Yu's words. It seemed that he came to his senses and stood up blankly.
His hands were still stained with blood, and he stumbled. Seeing that his situation was not right, Chu Yu quickly followed.
She followed the child to Gu Chusheng's house. He first ordered someone to prepare a bowl of soothing soup for Gu Chusheng, and then carried the child and walked to Gu Chusheng's room.
Gu Chusheng didn't close the door, he sat beside his bed, wrapped his blood-stained hands around himself, and stared blankly at the moonlight pouring in.
"Actually, I should have known."
Chu Yu patted the child and came in, and heard Gu Chusheng's voice: "I should have thought long ago why she asked me those words. I should have understood long ago that she has suffered so much, and her world is more difficult than I imagined. Much harder."
"She is a woman with a child. It's too difficult to live on."
Chu Yu carried the child to Gu Chusheng's side, sat down, and listened to him: "She can't survive. Even with my help, how many years can I help her? I'm not by her side, maybe soon, I will I don't remember this man."
"Chu Sheng," Chu Yu sighed, "I can't blame you for that."
No one thought that this woman would have such a plan.
"She felt that if I didn't help her, neither she nor the child would survive. So she must force me to have this child."
"But why does she live so desperately?"
Gu Chusheng turned his eyes slowly and looked at Chu Yu: "Why, I, the people of Chu, feel that my life is like an ant. If there is no one to save me, I can't live?"
"Chu Sheng..."
Chu Yu was terrified by the tears in Gu Chusheng's eyes. He looked at her, trembling, and said hoarsely: "She asked me when will Da Chu be stable? I have asked this question before, in my last life, in this life, I asked twice. forever..."
"But why is Da Chu unsettled?" Gu Chusheng stood up, hunched over, staring at Chu Yu, his teeth chattering slightly: "My Da Chu has the most expansive land, the most heroic son, the hardest working people, why is it unsettled? Because of the heart..."
He raised his hand, put it on his chest, and shouted angrily: "Because that thief Zhao Yue has a heart! Because Emperor Chunde is an idiot! Because Yao Yong is a thief who is dedicated to himself! Because I..."
He slowly closed his eyes and said in a difficult voice, "Because I...weak and incompetent."
"Chu Sheng," Chu Yu patted the baby's back and said slowly, "Don't put a country on your shoulders alone."
"I've been watching people die every day recently."
Gu Chusheng's voice choked: "I watch them die in front of me every day. I try to save everyone, but I can't save anyone. I can't control life and death, I can't stop natural disasters, even man-made disasters, I can't do anything about it. "
Tears rolled down, Gu Chusheng closed his eyes: "I eat the food of the common people, wear the clothes of the common people, and serve as a cabinet scholar, but I have nothing to do."
"Ayu..." He slowly knelt down on the ground, hunched over his body, raised his hand to cover his face, tears still fell on his hands, and the blood melted: "I can't do anything about it."
In his two lifetimes, for himself, what he loves is hard to find; for the country, what he protects is hard to find.
He watched everything he wanted lost, left, destroyed, collapsed, but there was nothing he could do.
He felt that countless suppressed emotions were rushing out in front of this woman, and he knelt down in front of her and howled.
Chu Yu listened to his cry quietly, she looked at the moonlight, she felt that the cry was like a long river, it would wash away the person beside him little by little this night.
She raised her hand and patted his shoulder lightly. After a long time, when his crying subsided, she slowly said, "Wipe away your tears and go to sleep."
Her voice was calm and calm: "You will be a father in the future."
When Gu Chusheng heard this, he slowly raised his head and looked at the child in Chu Yu's arms.
The child slept soundly, and Chu Yu handed the child to Gu Chusheng. Gu Chusheng took the child and looked down at it.
"Actually, you are not helpless," Chu Yu watched Gu Chusheng settle down, and she smiled: "To change the fate of a country, you have to rely on many people, each of whom can change a little. Gu Chusheng, in fact, you have done a lot, isn't it?"
"Da Chu will settle down."
Gu Chusheng raised his head, saw Chu Yu's eyes, and listened to her earnestly: "In this lifetime, I, Wei Yun, my brother, Song Shilan, Wei Qingping... and many others."
Her voice was steady: "Let's work hard together."
Gu Chusheng didn't speak. After a long time, he smiled slowly.
"it is good."
With tears in his eyes, he said hoarsely, "We are together."
In his last life, he couldn't be side by side with her.
In this life, he can stand together, and he is content.
