After my love-brained mother read my mind, I kicked out my scumbag father and divorced him
Chapter 29 The beggar is my second brother
Mrs. Guo felt that she had been humiliated, and her expression changed immediately. She ordered the servants in the mansion to take action.
The beggar was not afraid at all.
He rolled up his sleeves and was ready to rush in to get to work.
But suddenly, a woman with a veil on her face and holding a baby girl stood in front of him.
"Why is Mrs. Guo so angry?"
The beggar was stunned. Although he couldn't see the other person's face clearly, he saw that the other person was dressed well and must be of noble status. Therefore, the confusion in his eyes was more obvious.
In this capital, the powerful and wealthy have intricate connections with each other, and yet there is someone who stands up for a beggar like him?
"Who are you?"
Mrs. Guo was also looking at the woman who suddenly appeared.
The other party handed the baby girl in her arms to the maid beside her and slowly took off her veil.
Mrs. Guo was stunned for a moment, then she smiled ingratiatingly.
"Sister Jin, it turned out to be you."
Guo was more than ten years younger than Qu, but because the elders of the two families were familiar with each other, they occasionally interacted with each other in daily life.
Therefore, Guo called Qu "sister".
Wen Qianqian nestled in Yinxing's arms, excitedly shouting in her heart: [Mother, teach her a lesson! Neither she nor her husband are good people! ]
As Qu listened to Wen Qianqian's thoughts, she looked at Guo with even colder eyes.
Qianqian said that the couple were not good people, and that must be the case.
She said in a cold voice: "Madam Guo, I wonder how this beggar has offended you. Do you want to break his legs?"
Hearing this deliberately unfamiliar address, Guo's forced smile froze slightly.
"Sister Jin, did you misunderstand something? It was because this beggar was rude that I asked the servants to teach him a lesson."
"Improper words? Why do you say that? He was just telling the truth."
"What truth?"
Guo looked at the poor people who were eating voraciously and said:
"It seems that Mrs. Guo didn't understand what he meant. Then I will explain it to you."
"His saying 'When the granaries are full, people know etiquette; when they have enough food and clothing, they know honor and disgrace' was not meant to cause trouble."
"What he meant was that only when the people had enough food would they understand etiquette, and only when they had enough clothes and food would they know honor and shame."
"You ask a hungry person to learn etiquette, isn't that in line with the saying, why not eat meat?"
"If they thank you before taking the bun, I'm afraid the bun would have been snatched away by someone else."
Mrs. Guo's smile became even stiffer.
"I didn't hear clearly what he said just now, but this is what he meant. Thank you for your explanation today, sister."
Mrs. Guo said this and walked up to the beggar.
"Little brother, I misunderstood you. Guo Yan apologizes to you here."
The beggar didn't expect things to turn out this way and was a little at a loss for a moment.
But before he could answer, Guo bowed slightly to Qu and left with a group of servants.
Guo's maidservant was so angry that she couldn't help but say, "Madam, why do you have to bow to Qu? Her husband is just a small sixth-rank centurion, and you are marrying a third-rank assistant minister of the Ministry of War!"
"Shut up!" Guo glared at the maid and quickly got into the carriage.
The head maidservant next to her helped Guo onto the carriage and then started to teach the maid a lesson.
"What do you know?"
"Her husband is not worth mentioning, but don't forget, her surname is Qu! The Empress in the palace also has the surname Qu!"
"If not, do you think she, a wife of a centurion, could receive an imperial decree?"
The maid actually forgot about this and fell silent instantly.
……
Only after the carriage drove away did the beggar remember to say thank you.
He walked up to Qu and bowed deeply.
"Thank you for your help, Madam. I will remember your kindness today. If you encounter anything in the future, please come to me."
Yinxing was delighted to hear this.
"You are a beggar, what can my wife need your help with?"
"Silver Star, you can't talk like that."
"Yes……"
Qu scolded Yinxing and met the beggar's gaze.
"You have some knowledge, how did you fall to this level..."
The beggar spread his hands and said, "I can't say I'm very knowledgeable, but I've met many people and understand more. Madam, I won't bother you any more. Goodbye."
Qu nodded and took Wen Qianqian from Yinxing's arms again.
She asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Qianqian, where is your second brother?"
Wen Qianqian smiled with her eyebrows curved.
[Mother, didn’t you just meet my second brother? ]
Qu was stunned and looked suddenly in the direction where the beggar had just left.
"You mean..."
[Yes, that is my second brother! Tsk, even though my second brother has become a beggar, he still has the shadow of my grandfather.]
Qu had no time to pay attention to Wen Qianqian's praise and hurriedly chased after her.
"Wait, wait..."
The beggar just now stopped and turned around with a puzzled look on his face.
"Ma'am, do you have any other instructions?"
Qu said nothing, but with tears in her eyes, she looked closely at the young man in front of her.
The boy's face was covered in black dust, and his messy hair covered most of his face, but his eyes were unusually bright, as if washed with water.
If you look closely, his eyebrows and eyes are 70% similar to hers.
This... is her Yier.
How much suffering did her Yier endure outside?
When Qu thought about how her fake son had been raised in luxury all these years while her real son was starving, her heart ached.
She walked forward uncontrollably and reached out to touch her son's face.
But the beggar was obviously frightened by her action. He hurriedly jumped back two steps to avoid Qu's hand.
"Madam, what are you doing...?"
Qu suddenly came to her senses and wiped the tears from her face.
"I'm sorry, I'm just, just... just so happy."
"Happy?"
The beggar became even more confused, but suddenly he heard a soft and tender voice.
[Oh, mother, you must hold back, there are so many people watching here! ]
[If they knew that the person in front of them was my dear second brother, your son who was living away from home, we would not be able to hide him anymore! ]
The beggar was greatly surprised.
Who is speaking!?
He looked around and finally set his sights on Wen Qianqian.
It's her...it's her who's talking.
A baby, who barely has much hair, can actually talk?
And why didn't she move her lips when she spoke?
Also, she just mentioned her biological son?
You mean... him?
The beggar looked at Wen Qianqian, then at the noble lady who was trying hard to hold back her tears but tears were still streaming down her face. He could not help but be stunned on the spot.
"What...is your name?" Qu asked in a hoarse voice, the pain in her eyes almost overflowing.
The beggar had a very strange feeling in his heart.
He swallowed and answered truthfully: "Traveling."
"Yunyou...are you willing to come with me to the teahouse to talk?"
As if by some strange coincidence, Yunyou nodded and agreed.
When they arrived at the private room of the teahouse, Qu could no longer control her emotions and hugged Yunyou and burst into tears.
"Son, my son..."
"I'm sorry for you!"
"You deserve to die, mother. I made you suffer for so many years, and only today did I know of your existence."
Yunyou subconsciously pushed Qu away, but the next moment...
