Chapter 191 Don't Force It
The relationship between the Gu and Mu families broke off and became known to everyone. Gu Qingqi's past and her life experience could no longer be hidden.
Without the identity of the legitimate daughter of a duke, she has a background full of stains and criticisms. Can she still marry Prince Ling smoothly?
Isn’t she afraid that public opinion will drown her?
In fact, these were not within Mu Qingyan's consideration at all.
For her, the identity of the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Fuguo was a stain. Whoever wanted to have such a heartless father could have him, but she didn't want him.
In the Gu family's ancestral hall, Xulin carefully placed Gu Qingqun's tablet on the incense table.
After bringing the tablet from the Mu Mansion back, they burned it and carved a new one and placed it there for worship.
It only says, 'The spirit tablet of my beloved daughter Qingchen'.
After burning incense and offering sacrifices, only the old couple remained in the ancestral hall, and everyone else left.
Mu Qingyan silently handed her aunt a bottle of trauma medicine, and Yu nodded gratefully. People are made of flesh and blood, and Gu Qingrong had just used his fist to teach Mu Sinian a lesson, and his fist was also bloody.
Everyone else left, only Mu Qingyan and Xulin stayed behind to guard the entrance of the ancestral hall.
It was quiet inside, no sound at all.
The two old people didn't say anything, they just stood there, looking at the cold tablet, tears streaming down their faces uncontrollably.
When they came out supporting each other, the brother and sister hurried over to greet them, supporting one each, and slowly walked out, saying nothing and asking nothing.
In this world, you have to slowly digest the separations and deaths on your own.
Others can't help at all.
After helping the man back to the yard to rest, Mu Qingyan carefully felt his pulse again and told people to take good care of him before leaving with a nervous mood.
My uncle and his family are discussing who to find to choose an auspicious day to move Gu Qingqun's remains from the Mu family's ancestral tomb.
Then I heard the doorman outside come to report that Sect Master Yan was here to visit.
The brothers of the Gu family looked at each other, and finally Gu Qingrong gave the order to invite the people in.
It was understandable that Sect Leader Yan's son was plotted against, and he has been trying his best to make amends since then.
The person is already dead, I don't want to talk about the past.
Sect Master Yan and the entire Xiaoyao Sect have done a great favor to their Gu family. Moreover, they have two children...
This is not a grudge, let's not talk about it, the living can have less burden. Otherwise, how can the two children face the elders who are on edge?
Sect Leader Yan was invited in.
When facing the Gu family, he kept a very humble attitude. No matter what the reason was, it was ultimately his son who had let the girl from the Gu family down.
"Master Yan, why are you here today?"
Both parents were resting in the backyard, so Gu Qingrong became the one who spoke.
Sect Leader Yan first lowered his head, as if he felt very embarrassed about what he was about to say.
After thinking for a long time, he looked up, "My son asked me to find that girl and give her an explanation before he died... These days, all signs show that my son and your sister are in love with each other... Although it was a coincidence... I know you have asked the Mu family to write a divorce letter and brought back your sister's tablet... I think, if you choose an auspicious day to move the tomb, can you let me bring your sister's coffin back to Xiaoyao Sect and bury her with him as my son's wife?"
He was afraid that the Gu family would not agree, so he hurriedly said, "I know that this request is unreasonable...but...please consider it...okay?"
No one present spoke.
Normally, a married woman's tablet cannot be enshrined in her natal ancestral hall, let alone buried in her ancestral tomb.
Although this matter was the business of the Gu family, they had also informed the elders of the clan. If the elders disagreed and tried to obstruct them, they could not make things too awkward with the clan members.
Right now, no one can make the decision...
Gu Qingrong thought for a moment and said, "Master Yan has done a great favor to our Gu family. Not only did you save the Gu family army, you also saved the lives of the four of us, father and son. We will grant whatever you ask for. But this matter, after all, concerns my sister, and we still have our parents to make the decision. Please understand."
Of course Sect Leader Yan knew.
But the old general and the old lady were still immersed in sorrow after all the trouble they had gone through. They had just rested, so it was not a good idea to disturb them.
Had to give up temporarily.
When he left, Mu Qingyan and his sister saw him off.
"Grandfather, if my grandfather and the others don't agree to this, please don't force it. After all, it was my father who made the mistake first. It's understandable that they want to blame or complain..." Mu Qingyan whispered.
Sect Leader Yan has lived to this age now, and he is a parent too, how could he not understand this?
If his daughter was bullied by someone, he would chop that person into pieces and feed them to the dogs. Even if the person was dead, he would dig out his corpse and whip it for three days!
The Gu family never looked angry when facing him.
But in fact, everyone will feel a little uncomfortable.
"I know that my grandfather is not the kind of person who would argue with unreasonable people. If this can be done, I will be able to repay your father. If it really doesn't work, I will discuss with the old general and have another tablet carved and placed in our Yan family's ancestral hall for worship. This way, it can be considered an explanation..."
When he reached the door, he stopped, patted Xu Lin on the shoulder, looked at the brother and sister and said, "Today, we went to the Mu family to ask for the divorce letter. The Gu family made a great decision. After all, it concerns the reputation of their daughter. As parents and brothers and sisters-in-law, they certainly can't bear to let the eldest daughter of the Gu family bear false accusations after her death. After this incident, we don't know what kind of rumors will be spread. You two, stay at the Gu family and accompany the two elders well, don't run around... understand?"
The brother and sister nodded in unison.
"Okay, let's go back. Don't send me off..."
He waved and turned away.
The moment he turned his back, his eyes turned red.
He also felt the same way as an elderly person sending off a young person. No matter how many years have passed, the feeling will never fade.
The longer the years go by, the clearer the pain becomes.
Mu Qingyan and Xulin looked at the back and stood there for a long time without moving.
She recalled the first time she met her grandfather, she thought he was an old boy who looked rude but was actually a thoughtful person at heart.
Now looking back, he and the two elders of the Gu family are both fathers who have lost their children...
Not only did he lose his child, he also lost his wife...
In Xulin's opinion, the master who had already turned gray in hair but always teased him and criticized his clumsiness with a lively look no longer had the spirit and energy he once had...
"Brother, do you think that grandpa and the others will agree to this?"
Xu Lin nodded, "I will agree... They also hope that their daughter can have a good home... Your marriage has been decided, but I will not stay in Kyoto forever. I will bring my mother's coffin back, and I can still fulfill my filial duty as a son..."
