famous eldest daughter

Chapter 50
Shenyu brought Gu Yuqing here for this purpose, so naturally she no longer refused or avoided Gu Yuqing's words at this time.

"Your mother has a jewelry box made of golden nanmu. Come and have a look." Shenyu said, her voice was serious that Gu Yuqing had never heard before. "That's all I can say."

"Ah!" After Shenyu finished speaking, her tone suddenly changed and she yawned, "Um...I'm sleepy, go to bed, you...find it slowly." After saying that, he seriously stopped making any sound. .

Gu Yuqing suddenly wanted to hit someone!
No, I really want to hit jade!

How can you just sleep at such a critical time?

Gu Yuqing discovered that since the appearance of this divine jade, no matter what kind of turbulent emotions she had in her heart, she could always be calmed down by it with just a few words, or her feelings of resentment could be directly transferred to being completely powerless against it. anger.

Shenyu lost his voice, and Gu Yuqing, who gradually calmed down, began to rummage through the boxes.

She remembered that her mother had a jewelry box made of golden nanmu. The box had seven layers in total, and each layer contained different jewelry. Those jewelry were all made for her by her father when he went to the Jinlou to make them for her mother's birthday. Everything embodies the father's deep love for his mother.

However, Gu Yuqing clearly remembered that her mother died suddenly that day, and her father was extremely grieved. He personally placed the golden nanmu jewelry box in her mother's coffin, right next to her.

At this time, Shenyu asked her to look for the box here.

Although doubtful in her heart, Gu Yuqing did not doubt Shenyu's words. She only wondered when someone took the box out of her mother's coffin and hid it here. Her father knew it.

Originally, she came to the study to check the possible traces left by Xiao Duo. At this moment, Gu Yuqing had no intention of caring about Xiao Duo. She was preoccupied with the murderous case at her maternal grandfather's house.

Gu Yuqing searched inch by inch, and one secret room after another was opened and closed by her. Her heart was tense. Every time she opened a mechanism, her hand that touched the mechanism could not help but tremble.

The sun gradually rose, and when the scorching sun finally climbed into the sky, Gu Yuqing found the golden nanmu jewelry box in an extremely hidden compartment.

The mechanism popped open, and the box suddenly appeared in front of Gu Yuqing's eyes. Her heart suddenly shrank. After a moment of confusion, her nose felt sore as if it had been soaked in hot lemon juice, and tears fell down.

After two lives, after many years, she thought she would not cry, but unexpectedly, when she saw her mother's old things, her tears burst into tears, and she couldn't even wipe them dry.

Her throat seemed to be blocked by a piece of dough, and her throat hurt from swelling.

Mother... Ah Qing really misses you, misses you so much, misses you so much.

After a long time, when Gu Yuqing's legs felt a little numb, her tears gradually stopped. Gu Yuqing sniffed and leaned over to take out the golden nanmu box with both hands.

The box was spotless, and it looked like someone had wiped it frequently.

Suspicious clouds came to mind, Gu Yuqing pressed the spring mechanism of the box, and with a "pop" sound, the box was opened. However, Gu Yuqing was suddenly stunned, and her heart twitched fiercely.

The top layer should have been filled with earrings, but it was empty at the moment.

how come!
Bang bang bang, Gu Yuqing opened all the remaining layers. Each layer was empty, and Gu Yuqing's heart tightened again and again.

Where are my mother's things?

When the last layer was opened, Gu Yuqing saw a piece of emerald jade at a glance. She reached out and took it out without hesitation. Under the jade, there was a note.

Putting the golden nanmu box carefully on the desk aside, Gu Yuqing sat on the big pear wood chair behind the desk and looked at the jade pendant carefully.

Her slender fingers brushed against the delicate lines of the jade pendant, and she was certain that it was not her mother's.

None of the jewelry that originally belonged to my mother was missing, but there was a piece of jade pendant that didn't belong to my mother.

Gu Yuqing's brows became more and more peaceful. She held the jade pendant in one hand and picked up the note in the box with the other.

The note was only as big as a palm, but the blood-red handwriting was so piercing that it made Gu Yuqing's eyes hurt.

If you do not avenge this hatred, you will be a useless husband.

However, there are only eight short characters, and the handwriting is powerful and majestic. With just one glance, she can recognize that it was written by her father.

The scarlet writing was clearly written in blood.

Gu Yuqing's heart suddenly hurt, as if she had been stabbed by a sharp knife. The pain made her breathless. She didn't know when her father wrote this bloody letter.

In her last life, she lived in vain.He only makes wedding dresses for others, but he doesn't know anything about his own family.

If you do not avenge this hatred, you will be a useless husband.

The word father clearly meant that he swore a blood oath to avenge his grandfather's family. Does father know who the enemy is?Eight years have passed since the murder at the grandfather's house, when did my father know about it?How did you know?Does mother know?

After his mother died suddenly, his father fell into immortality and devoted himself to seeking elixirs. Father...did his father really sink?

The box is spotless, and it can be seen that my father touches it all the time.

Questions popped up in Gu Yuqing's mind one after another, and a gray mist appeared in Gu Yuqing's eyes. He frowned and thought, and the hand holding the jade and the note was clear-cut.

……

By the time Ji Xiang Ruyi came to the study to find Gu Yuqing, it was already dark and it was past dinner time.

Ruyi held the lamp, Jixiang pushed the door, and the wooden door creaked open. With the light in his hand, Jixiang Ruyi saw Gu Yuqing's thin body drowning in the large pear wood chair, her face was as white as rice paper, and her eyes were cold.

The thick darkness was like a black mist that could not be dispersed, tightly surrounding Gu Yuqing.

"Miss!"

Jixiang Ruyi was startled, and rushed towards Gu Yuqing with a worried and distressed look on her face.

"Miss." When he arrived in front of Gu Yuqing, Ji Xiang leaned over and knelt down in front of Gu Yuqing, looking up at her frosty face.

Ji Xiang Ruyi had never seen Gu Yuqing like this before. Even when his wife passed away and the young lady was devastated, she was not like this now... her whole body was exuding a chill like thousand-year-old ice.

The arrival of Jixiang Ruyi interrupted Gu Yuqing's deep and painful thoughts. Her eyelashes trembled slightly and her black and white eyes raised. Gu Yuqing saw Ruyi about to light the lamp.

"Don't light it. I've been sitting here for a long time. It's time to go back." Gu Yuqing took a long breath and sighed carefully. He didn't speak all afternoon, and his voice was very hoarse now. "The lamp in your hand has also blown out." Well, the moonlight is nice today and I want to take a walk outside." Gu Yuqing said as she stood up.

After sitting for a long time in the dark night, even the slightest light was dazzling to her eyes, which made her want to cry. She always thought that she was as strong as iron, but then she realized that she was just an ordinary person.

Ruyi immediately stopped lighting the lamp, blew out the lamp with a breath, and stepped forward to help Gu Yuqing leave with Ji Xiang.

It rained heavily for two consecutive nights. Under the bright moonlight, the sky at this moment was black and blue, with stars twinkling. Each star seemed to be telling its own story.

The breeze blew against her face and the fragrance of flowers hit her. Gu Yuqing took a deep breath and felt a little more comfortable.
