Capítulo 1589: Chapter 1592: Dreaming Sweet Dreams
But as for Gu Youyou, he turned to her out of necessity, with little hope.
However, this adopted son was different. When they found him, he was wearing luxurious clothes, and his features were refined, clearly not an ordinary person. Of course, the most important thing was that he was grateful and repaid kindness; he was filial. If he beca the Top Scholar, he would surely repay him well.
Then he would be the father of the Top Scholar.
No matter what happens with Gu Youyou, he still might have a son who is the Top Scholar.
Heaven truly has not been unfair to him!
Just as he stood there, he heard humiliating words coming from the house.
“I think you’re just a swindler, cheating for food and drink, aren’t you? How did you and your father trick my father into supporting you? Oh, you, a beggar, want to beco the Top Scholar? Hmph, you can’t even solve my couplet, and you want to beco the Top Scholar? You should look in the mirror and see yourself clearly, like how Xiguang Residence is a demon-reflecting mirror, showing your true self so clearly.”
Then, there was the sound of sothing being thrown to the ground. The person being scolded still remained silent.
Gu Wu endured and endured, but couldn’t bear it anymore. He strode into the courtyard, only to see that Gu Shuisheng’s door was wide open, and the servants were bending over at the door to sneak a peek, while inside, Miss Zhang was yelling like a shrew who had eaten gunpowder.
And his adopted son was steadfastly holding a pen, sitting at the desk and writing sothing.
Gu Wu, unable to contain his anger, shouted, “Shuisheng, are you just going to sit there and let them insult you like that?”
It was disgraceful.
Gu Shuisheng glanced up at Gu Wu, and calmly said, “A man of virtue tolerates all, his chest swallows broad rivers.”
Gu Wu: “…” Anyway, he didn’t understand.
Zhang Shiyu: “… Are you saying this lady’s tolerance is small?”
Gu Shuisheng ignored her and continued writing.
Zhang Shiyu couldn’t let it go and continued questioning, “Little beggar, what do you an by that? Do you look down on ? Why do you have the right to look down on ? I am the only legitimate Miss of the Zhang Residence, while you’re just a beggar. Now you can sit here because of my father’s charity, understand?
Today my father is in a good mood and gives charity to you, but if my father gets upset tomorrow, you’ll be kicked out imdiately and beco beggars again, understand?”
Gu Shuisheng was like a deaf person with no response.
But Gu Wu couldn’t stand such humiliation and angrily shouted, “Miss Zhang, have you forgotten one thing? We didn’t ask to co here; you brought us here. Yes, we used to be beggars, but even as beggars we have dignity.
We don’t steal or rob. If others are willing to give us food, we eat it. If not, as long as you, Miss Zhang, say so, I’ll imdiately take my family, Shuisheng, back to being beggars. Hmph, even as beggars, we wouldn’t cling to you; you can be a hundred percent assured.”
Miss Zhang’s face turned ashen with anger, thinking she didn’t want to drive these two beggars away, but her father wouldn’t agree, would he?
As always, she regretted the most in her life bringing these two beggars ho, adding to her own annoyance.
“You… What do you two beggars have to be arrogant about? You want to be beggars, huh? Hmph, you dare talk to this lady like that? You just wait, I’ll go tell my father now to have him kick you out as beggars.”
Finally, Miss Zhang stomped off angrily, and only then did Gu Wu, frustrated, tap Gu Shuisheng’s head and say, “I know you’re not ordinary, you can study. Fine, they say scholars are gentle, but you’re too gentle, aren’t you? They’ve insulted you to your face.”
