Marrying for someone else and being a widow? Stepmothers open classes to raise children

Two people, one standing and one sitting, were waiting quietly not far away, and their topic of conversation was nothing but her.

One of them was sitting in a wheelchair.

This character has a temperament as gentle as jade, and has the same humble and polite gentleman style as Xie Xun. However, he has a hint of morbid fragility and lacks Xie Xun's confidence and composure.

He is the third son of the Gu family, Gu Zhichuan, and also Gu Zhiyi's nominal third brother.

Gu Zhichuan was once a well-known scholar in Kyoto, but fate seemed to be jealous of him. When he was twelve years old, he fell seriously ill and although he survived, his legs lost their vitality forever.

In her previous life, Gu Zhiyi had tried her best to find a remedy to heal his legs. Unfortunately, when she had collected all the materials, fate pushed her into Shen Dinglian's arms and then took her to the border.

Before leaving, she left him the method that could help him regain his freedom and sent a messenger to deliver it to him.

Unfortunately, he never believed it.

When she returned to Kyoto more than ten years later, he was still sitting in a wheelchair.

His long-term mobility problems caused his health to deteriorate, and he passed away not long after she returned to Beijing.

In the Gu family, Gu Sanlang was one of the few people who still had good intentions towards her.

Whether in the past life or this life.

When Gu Zhiyi fell into deep thought, Gu Sanlang's voice came from the front.

"Master Xie, Zhiyi is my biological sister. I hope that the rumors outside are just rumors, and I hope that you will not do anything to let her down. Although I am physically disabled, I still have the ability to stand up for my sister."

Xie Xun looked slightly embarrassed.

The entanglement between the three of them was quite complicated. In fact, no one really made a mistake. He could not refute it and could only say helplessly: "Don't worry, third brother, Zhiyi has been living a smooth life in Ningguo Mansion since she came here. I have never done anything to let her down."

Those things all happened before she got married.

Although Gu Sanlang had heard some rumors, he did not know much about them. After hearing Xie Xun's promise, he felt relieved: "If that's the case, then that's good."

He politely declined Xie Xun's invitation to enter the mansion and had his wheelchair pushed slowly towards Gu's mansion.

Gu Zhiyi did not show up.

She stared at Gu Sanlang's receding back, and a trace of deep confusion flashed in her eyes.

If there was one regret she had in her previous life, it was that she wanted to ask: Third brother, why don’t you believe me?

Why did you burn the prescription I sent you?

By then, I had become famous and was no longer the untrustworthy teenage girl.

Xie Xun did not notice Gu Zhiyi hiding behind the door. After saying goodbye to Gu Sanlang, he hurriedly walked away along the end of the street.

Gu Zhiyi knew clearly that the purpose of his trip was to deliver the letter, and she did not have any extra thoughts about it.

However, her joyful mood disappeared in an instant. She lost interest in strolling in the garden, felt bored with cultivation, and even food lost its appeal. Gu Zhiyi strolled into the incense room.

The smoke is lingering and the aroma is overwhelming.

She sat on the soft cushion, her bright and attractive face was expressionless and her eyes were empty.

When she was young, no one could listen to her thoughts except Luluo. As time passed, there were some secrets that even Luluo could not share, so she often came here to confide in the ancestor.

"I am bothering you again."

"Since my rebirth, I have often felt confused and do not understand the true meaning of rebirth."

If she could go back to the time before her marriage, she would never choose to marry Xie Xun.

The master once told her that her earthly ties had not yet ended, but he did not explicitly say that this earthly ties must be a marriage.

Wishes are hard to come true after all.

"Grandmaster, I don't crave family affection, but there is one thing that has troubled me for a long time..."

Gu Zhiyi was about to tell the mystery in her heart when she suddenly heard Luluo knocking on the door hurriedly: "Miss, it's bad! Something big has happened!"

After a while, the door opened and Gu Zhiyi asked calmly, "What happened?"

"Young Master, he suffered a serious injury!"

When Gu Zhiyi stepped into Wuyang Courtyard, the servants in the courtyard were like frightened birds, not daring to make a sound.

The sky above the entire Wuyang Courtyard seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

As he approached, Gu Zhiyi keenly smelled the bloody smell in the air.

Xie Lin was kneeling in front of the door, his back straight as a pine tree, his whole body emitting deep sadness and self-blame.

Old Madam Xie was heartbroken and burst into tears.

Seeing Gu Zhiyi coming, she held Gu Zhiyi's hand tightly and asked with tears in her eyes: "Zhiyi, Xun'er will be okay, right? He will be safe, right?"

Gu Zhiyi was actually unsure of her fate, because she could no longer see Xie Xun's face, but she still comforted him, "Don't worry, mother, he will be fine."

Old Madam Xie seemed to have taken a reassurance pill. Although she was still sad, she was no longer anxious.

At this time, Gu Zhiyi asked: "What happened?"

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Xie gnashed her teeth and said, "It's all because of that evildoer!"

Then she shouted to the outside of the door: "Xie Lin, come in quickly!"

Xie Lin crawled into the house. He had already heard Gu Zhiyi's question, so without waiting for her to ask, he told her the whole story in detail.

Chao Yunxuan has been feeling depressed ever since she was injured. Today, she finally made up her mind to go out of town for a walk to relieve her depression.

However, Xie Xun firmly disagreed. Chao Yunxuan, however, questioned whether Xie Xun no longer loved her, saying that she was "thick-skinned" and that the injury was insignificant, otherwise why would he not even meet such a request? Faced with Chao Yunxuan's questioning, Xie Xun had no choice but to compromise and agree.

He carefully arranged a carriage and carefully carried Chao Yunxuan into the carriage. At this time, a servant was outside the carriage. He didn't know much about the situation inside the carriage. He could only vaguely hear that Xie Xun seemed to want to give Chao Yunxuan a self-defense item. But Chao Yunxuan's attitude... The servant glanced at Gu Zhiyi hesitantly, and Gu Zhiyi took over the conversation: "What he was going to give should be the amulet I have here." With a hint of doubt in her tone, she continued to ask: "Miss Chao knows that this amulet was made by me, so she refused to accept it?"

Even if Chao Yunxuan didn't accept it, Xie Xun just couldn't express his love, the amulet was still with him. Even if he encountered danger, he would not be hurt.

Upon hearing this, Old Lady Xie hurriedly asked, "What happened next? Did that woman do anything?" Xie Lin lowered his head, not daring to participate in the evaluation of his master and his beloved. He could only objectively tell what he knew, "Later, they had an argument, and Miss Chao seemed to ask the young master to throw away the amulet."
