Chapter 384 Backbone

Half a month passed by in a flash, and by the time the Su family's ship took Gu Shaoyu and others to Jinling City, it was already the end of October.

The cold wind of early winter carried a shivering chill throughout Jinling City.

Along the way, Gu Shaoyu's mood was no better than the weather. Du Jingyi, who had received the news early, also specifically asked Xing Zhao to pick them up at the pier, and brought Su Yi with him.

When he saw Gu Shaoyu, Xing Zhao also looked distressed.

Obviously he is still the same person as before, but he has changed a lot, and he knows how much the death of Mrs. Gu has affected him.

"Cousin, are you okay?"

Gu Shaoyu said nothing, only patted Xing Zhao on the shoulder, and then asked.

"How's it going at home?"

"My cousin is watching, but nothing happened. It's just that people from the seventh room of Gu's family went there a few days ago. Maybe there were some cousins ​​who didn't listen to what they said, so there was a bit of a verbal dispute, but the seventh one was The old man suppressed it, so my cousin didn’t pursue it. "

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu's eyes became a little more unhappy. Was he trying to bully his wife because he was not at home?

Seeing his unkind expression, Xing Zhao knew that now was not the time to find trouble, so he quickly took out the plain clothes and handed them over, interrupting.

"Cousin, please don't be angry. We have to go back to pay homage to my eldest grandmother first. This is the official business. My cousin asked me to bring this plain clothes here. She said she wanted you to wash them and change them in the inn built by the Su family for resting. Put the clothes back."

Hearing this, Gu Shaoyu didn't say much nonsense and went with the people behind him. After everyone washed up and changed their clothes, they got on the horse and ran towards Gu's house.

Fear of being close to home.

Even though Gu Shaoyu had known the news of his grandmother's death for more than half a month, when he saw the plain white silk in front of Gu's house, he still couldn't help but take a small step back.

When Luo Yuan saw this scene, he immediately stepped forward to support his general's back. Although he usually had a playful and playful nature, now he must be the general's strongest backing!

When the guard at the door of Gu's house saw Gu Shaoyu, he shouted inside with red eyes.

"Quick, go tell the young lady that the general is back!"

"yes!"

Soon, the boy ran all the way inside and shouted, and soon the entire Gu family heard it.

Gu Shaoyu stepped over, and his appearance made the entire Gu family come back to life.

Although he had changed into plain clothes, the beard on his face revealed his melancholy these days, and his brows had been furrowed and never relaxed.

When he walked to the mourning hall, everyone in the Gu family stood up or turned to look at him, their eyes filled with excitement and sadness.

"Shaoyu, you are finally back."

"Brother, grandma is gone, gone..."

"Uncle Six!"

The eldest aunt is still in bed and can't get out of bed, and the second aunt and the third aunt have to stay awake for two days and rest for one day, so Du Jingyi, the fourth aunt, Gu Xiaolang and Shang Zhiping have become the main force in this wake.

Fortunately, they are all young people and can endure it. Although their appearance is a little worse, their health is still good.

The sister-in-law, who was taking care of the family's meals, was too tired to even touch the ground.

Gu Xiaochun and Gu Xiaoyun wanted to keep vigil, but they were both pregnant, especially Gu Xiaoyun, who was less than two months old, which was only a few days before Mrs. Gu passed away.

She reacted violently and vomited when she ate, so her second uncle Huo Silang kept watch over her every step of the way. He couldn't come over, but his eldest uncle Su Erlang came here to watch over her during the day and went back to watch over her at night. Auntie and Gu Xiaochun lost a lot of weight after working hard for more than half a month.

So in the past two days, Du Jingyi asked him to rest in the yard and replace them in two days. Seeing this, Su Erlang agreed.

It's just that Du Jingyi has just recovered his health a few days ago. During the days of wake-up, his head has been almost consumed. His belly, which originally still had a little bit of meat, is now lighter than before when he was not pregnant because of excessive fatigue.

His eyes were full of fatigue, but his face looked pretty good.

When she and her husband looked at each other, tears suddenly fell down, and several other people also cried again when they saw Gu Shaoyu.

Everyone was sad in their own way, but together they turned into a sigh from Gu Shaoyu. When he knelt down on the futon in front of the memorial tablet, there was a tremor in Gu Shaoyu's voice.

"My grandson is late, grandma..."

After saying that, he banged three heads. The force was so strong that when he got up again, he was already red and swollen. Although Du Jingyi felt distressed, he also knew that if his sadness was not resolved through these, he was afraid that there would still be problems. !

So he didn't stop him much, he just took a stack of gold and silver paper money and whispered in a low voice.

"General, burn some gold and silver for grandma, so that her old man can be more comfortable over there."

Gu Shaoyu looked up at Du Jingyi, feeling sorry for her that she had survived until now, so he reached out and touched her cheeks that had lost weight and said.

"Thank you, madam, I'm back. You can take your fourth aunt and third sister back to rest first and get some sleep. I have something to tell you tonight."

Gu Shaoyu could see that they were all holding on, so that outsiders would not look down on the Gu family. Now the Gu family could be considered to be prosperous, but those were in their infancy, and they were just about to die. Could they now support the family?

So, when he came back, everyone's hearts were settled.

Du Jingyi wanted to accompany her husband, so she said to the fourth aunt.

"Ping'er has also been up all night, so let him go back and rest first. I will accompany the general to burn gold and silver for the grandmother before leaving."

Knowing that the couple might have something to say, the fourth aunt did not say much nonsense, took Gu Xiaolang and Shang Zhiping, and limped away.

As for Xing Zhao, Luo Yuan and others, they did not want to come up and cause trouble. After bowing three times outside, they stayed in the yard.

After kneeling for so many days, whose knees were not bruised?

Du Jingyi stood up and wanted to move over to accompany Gu Shaoyu, but her legs and feet were numb and she couldn't even stand up.

Yingtao wanted to help Du Jingyi, but Gu Shaoyu held her sideways. After looking around, he saw a bench at the back and sent her over to sit down before saying.

"You just gave birth to a child. You must have been very careful and you may not be healthy in the future. Grandma knows how filial you are to her and won't care about these things. I'll go and burn it."
