Marry the first wife

Chapter 27 Punishment
After General Fu moved into this mansion, he built an ancestral hall to show his filial piety.

The tablets were neatly placed together, and each person's name was carefully written on them. Fu Yao had seen some of the elders, but not others.

Fu Yao's eyes scanned every tablet carefully, and the corner of her mouth curled up with a mocking arc. Everyone was there, except her biological mother, as if she was a nameless person.

There is no place to come, no way to return, and no trace of hers left in the world.

The anger in her heart was burning. Why could everyone's tablet be on it, but her mother couldn't. Her mother was the wife of her father Ming Media, so why couldn't her tablet be on it?
For many years, Fu Yao never figured out the answer to this question, and later she simply stopped thinking about it. However, someone refused to let her go, reminding her all the time that her mother's tablet was not in Fu's house.

Mrs. Xie was really cruel. Even though Fu Yao was kneeling here without any distractions, her heart felt a dull pain, like Ling Chi.

Fu Yao knew very well that the reason why Mrs. Xie asked her to kneel in the ancestral hall every time was just to make her surrender and admit her mistake. She understood, but the stubbornness left in her bones did not want her to admit her mistake. Besides, she admitted her mistake. So what can I do? It’s not just about kneeling down in the ancestral hall.

Fu Yao pursed her lips and stared at the many memorial tablets in front of her. It would be great if she could leave here.

"Girl, are you alright?"

While Guyu couldn't help but look around, he quietly took out the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that he had already prepared from his arms, and whispered: "Girl, you can eat some sweet-scented osmanthus cake to cushion your stomach."

Fu Yao stretched out her hand to take the oil paper and quickly opened it. She saw Gu Yu's eyes constantly scanning around and said with a soft smile: "What are you looking at?"

"My servant will be guarding the area for you, lest anyone come to disturb you." Gu Yu said as he carefully looked around, but there was nothing left around the ancestral hall except the biting cold wind.

Fu Yao couldn't help but laugh out loud, but after all, she was worried about Gu Yu's thin skin and said softly: "Don't worry, they won't send someone to guard me. There is nothing here."

Besides, she was a regular visitor here, and no one would complain if she ate once or twice.

"Really, don't worry. The ancestral hall is too cold. You go back and prepare for me first. In this way, I can have a good sleep when I go back." Fu Yao raised her eyebrows and advised in a low voice.

Probably considering that Fu Yao's knees were red and swollen after returning, Gu Yu nodded and looked at Fu Yao's knees with distressed eyes.

Fu Yao sighed, hoping that what happened after Gu Yu went back to prepare was true, and that she wanted to save her little face. Although she was familiar with the guards here, she had to guard against anyone complaining.

After kneeling for two full hours, Fu Yao was able to pay the price for everything she had done today. Without even thinking about it, her white and tender knees must be red and purple.

However, this is not a big deal for Fu Yao, who is familiar with driving. It is a bit distressing. He finally saved a little private money, but now it is all used to buy medicine for golden sores.

She really didn't know whether to cry or laugh!

'hi~'

"Girl, Madam, you were a little too cruel." Gu Yu did not dare to take his eyes away from the girl's bruised knees for a moment. Hearing Fu Yao's voice crying out in pain, his movements became even gentler.Fu Yao twisted her eyebrows. The soreness coming from her knees was really not that pleasant. The burning pain immediately made her eyes pump out tears, and the crystal clear tears fell subconsciously.

"Gu Yu, be gentle, be gentle!" She didn't know whether Mrs. Xie's punishment was severe or not. She only knew that the force Gu Yu was rubbing his legs now was really strong!

As soon as these words came out, Fu Yao did not feel Gu Yu's gentle touch as she imagined. On the contrary, it felt harder and harder until Fu Yao could no longer control the tears in her eyes.

Guyu rubbed the girl's knees vigorously and kept saying: "Girl, you don't understand this. Only by exerting a little force can your knees heal quickly. Otherwise, I don't know how long it will take for your knees to heal."

Fu Yao looked at Gu Yu blankly, why didn't she know that there was such a thing? Gu Yu didn't have such a heavy hand when he rubbed her legs before!
He wiped the haze in front of his eyes with his handle, and said with a little choking sound in his thin throat: "Gu Yu, don't try to trick me."

Guyu stood up straight, packed up the ointment at hand, and said in a deep voice: "Girl, how dare Guyu deceive the girl? Don't think too much, girl."

With that said, he helped Fu Yao lie down on the bed, covered her with a quilt, extinguished the candle, and then turned and left.

The room fell into darkness, and a cool feeling came from her knees. Fu Yao stared at the green gauze above her head, and a few tears silently fell from the corners of her eyes.

How can it not hurt if you hurt yourself?
······
Gu Yushou heard the noise coming from the outside and knew that his daughter had woken up. He hurriedly put down his work and walked quickly into the room.

"Gu Yu, I'm a little thirsty!" Fu Yao leaned on the bed rail, gently rubbing her eyes with her slender fingers, a faint feeling of fatigue appearing between her brows.

Guyu touched one side of the teacup. The temperature was just right. He held the teacup in both hands and walked towards Fu Yao. He asked in a low voice, "Girl, it's not yet dawn today. Why did you wake up so early?"

Fu Yao raised her hand to take the tea cup and took a sip, which relieved the dryness in her throat. "Headache, nightmare!" In fact, her knees also hurt, and the burning pain kept her awake even if she wanted to sleep.

Guyu took the cup from the girl's hand and placed it on the side of the bed. He gently used his hands to relieve the girl's headache. He lowered his voice and said, "The girl looks like she has a nightmare, but in fact, something good has happened recently."

"Good thing?" Fu Yao murmured in a low voice. She didn't look like someone who was about to have good things happen recently. It was clear that bad things had come to her.

"It is often said in my hometown that dreams come in reverse. The girl is having a nightmare now, and good things will happen in real life." Gu Yu explained.

Hearing this, Fu Yao raised the corners of her lips slightly. She wanted something good to happen, but the reality was a slap in the face to her. What good things could happen to a person with nothing but wind in his sleeves?

"Gu Yu, what time is it?"

"Girl, it's almost time." Gu Yu said subconsciously.

"Mao hour?" Fu Yao repeated, took a deep breath, and glanced out the window at the still dark sky. It was not even an hour before she fell asleep, but she was full of energy and couldn't fall asleep even if she wanted to. "Clean up for me."
