2624 I just want you to understand this
Fourth Gu aunt asked the maidservants to leave. She had something to say to fourth Gu uncle.
The maidservant looked at the crib with some difficulty. Fourth aunt Gu said, ” “Bring the child over and put him by my side!”
Thus, the servant girls and old women carried Gu thirteen over and left.
Fourth aunt Gu did not particularly like sons or daughters. In her opinion, as long as it was her own child, she was fine with it. She would raise them well.
Xiao Huan, why don’t we have a chat? ” fourth uncle Gu sat down. He was interrupted just as he was about to speak.
“Don’t!” Fourth Mrs. Gu said without hesitation, ” fourth brother Gu, you promised me that we would have three children, no matter if it’s a son or a daughter. You promised me that after giving birth to this child, you’ll let me and second sister-in-law do things. Don’t go back on your word!”
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry. She had just given birth, so she couldn’t be angry. No, we don’t want to!” Fourth uncle Gu quickly changed his words.
“So what if it’s a son or a daughter? His son would marry a wife when he grew up, and he would have grandchildren after he married a wife. I don’t believe that our three sons can’t give birth to a granddaughter.” Seeing that his attitude was good, fourth aunt Gu’s anger subsided. She said, ” there are three branches in the family. Eldest brother has earned a noble title by farming, and second brother has a firm foothold in the court. Although we are the youngest, we can’t always rely on eldest brother and second brother! En ‘Zi was about to take the imperial examination. He was almost old. When he got married and had children, there would be more and more people in the family. We can’t just do nothing, can we? We’re two adults, but what about the children? In the future, when the three of us go out, we will be laughed at. So, I think what we should do now is to work hard.”
Fourth uncle Gu pursed his lips. He really wanted to say that the Gu family would not have all kinds of struggles and all kinds of bad situations like other families.
However, he knew that fourth aunt Gu’s considerations were not wrong.
Seeing that he did not say anything, fourth aunt Gu continued, ” “I also know that father, mother, eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law will treat our family well. However, as the children grow up day by day, I always feel that we should do more and create more things for them. Even if we can’t be conferred titles or become officials, we can still work hard to earn money! At least one thing should work, right? Second sister-in-law had said that parents were role models for children. “Say, since we’re older and rely on our older brother and sister-in-law, does that child also think that he can rely on his cousins? Although the children in the family had a good relationship and grew up together, and they were willing to be the support of our child in the future, why should we rely on others to get what we can get by relying on our own efforts? One’s own ability was needed to forge iron. They were born into the Gu family because they had a good life. Since they had a good life, they should work even harder. It was not in vain that the heavens had given them such a good life. Don’t you think so?”
Fourth uncle Gu was stunned for a moment before he nodded. “You’re right. However, don’t tire yourself out. Finish your confinement properly and rest for a while before you do anything! I’ll work hard on the outside. Although I may not be as powerful as my two brothers, I have my own strengths. Xiao Huan, let me work harder and you think less. The children are still young and we still have time. Don’t tire yourself out.”
“I understand,” fourth aunt Gu said with a smile. I actually just want you to understand this principle. I didn’t think that you would do things after the confinement period.”
