Chapter 1788 Chouchou Epilogue 13

Rong Ye raised his head and asked, "Marshal, will you accept it?"

Gu Chao sighed: "My injury is no longer serious. This medicine of yours is too precious. If I use it now, it will be a waste of resources. If you really want to give it to me, you can send it to me, but you should keep the medicine yourself. If I meet you in the future, It’s never too late to take it out when your life is at stake.”

Seeing that the marshal had said this, Rong Ye had no choice but to put the porcelain vase back into his arms, and then mumbled and asked, "Can I sit here for a while? I want to accompany the marshal."

"You don't want to rest?" Gu Chao saw that he was covered in blood and hadn't changed his clothes: "Go back and wipe yourself, change your clothes, and rest early."

Rong Ye lowered his head in despair: "That, that's okay, okay..."

After saying that, he stood up and walked out, but after taking two steps, he turned back and looked at the marshal pitifully.

Gu Chao really had no choice but to pat the bed next to him: "Come here."

Rong Ye immediately ran back and sat in his original position.

Gu Chao said: "Come and lie down, this bed is big, you and I can take one side."

Rong Ye was stunned for a moment, staying in place and looking at the marshal.

Gu Chaozheng lowered his head and moved to make room for Rong Ye to sleep.

Rong Ye reacted, took off her shoes and got on the bed. She lay next to Gu Chao, suddenly turned around, and said with a smile: "It's like when I was a child. When I was a child, I liked to sleep next to my brother. My brother loved me very much. Even if you take away the quilt at night, you won’t be angry.”

Gu Chao smiled and said: "Some poor families, usually two or three brothers, sleep on the same bed. You have a rich family, but you don't know this."

"Was the Marshal like this before? Living with his brothers?"

Gu Chao said "Yes" and chatted with the child: "I am the youngest of the four brothers in my family. Ever since I can remember, we have been crowded together on the bed, but then..."

"later?"

"Later..." Gu Chao said with a somewhat disappointed tone, "It became more and more spacious."

"Spacious?" Rong Ye didn't understand: "When I was a child, I was crowded together. How can it be spacious when I get older? When I get older, won't it make me taller and stronger, making it even more crowded?"

Gu Chao smiled bitterly: "With fewer people, it will naturally be more spacious."

Rong Ye nodded and understood: "Because the marshal's brothers got married, so they had to sleep separately, right? After I was seven years old, my brother stopped sleeping with me. I asked my mother why, and she said, My brother wants to sleep with his future wife, but he hasn’t gotten married yet. Oh, it’s really worrying.”

Gu Chao flicked the child's forehead: "Young man is so angry."

Rong Ye asked again: "So the Marshal's brothers are married, so they don't sleep together?"

Gu Chao didn't want to say anything anymore, but seeing the child's twinkling eyes, he couldn't bear it and continued with him: "No, our brothers don't sleep together because they were sold, one a year. When I was five years old, I was the only one left in the family.”

Rong Ye's eyes suddenly widened.

Gu Chao said: "Okay, rest, don't talk about this."

Rong Ye was reluctant and pulled out Gu Chao's clothes: "Why did you sell it? Was it abducted by a trafficker? Have you found it now?"

Gu Chao sighed and patted the back of the child's hand comfortingly: "It's not that he was abducted, it's that he sold his children to make ends meet because he couldn't survive. When I was six years old, I was also sold."

Rong Ye suddenly sat up from the bed, shocked.

Gu Chao patted the bed and asked him to sleep down.

Rong Ye fell asleep again and looked sideways at the marshal: "Selling your children to make a living? So it's the marshal's mother who sells her own children? Why? Don't mothers cherish their children very much?"

"It's just a treasure, so I sell it." Gu Chao said: "My family is too poor, so I sell it to a rich family to be a son. At least I can have food to eat and clothes to wear."

Rong Ye's eyes suddenly turned red: "Marshal..."

Gu Chao quickly said: "Don't cry, men don't shed tears easily."

Rong Ye curled her lips, and her tears fell down like broken beads. There were no tears at all.

Gu Chao had no choice but to wipe her tears with his sleeves: "Many families are like this. In years of famine, when they can't survive, they have no choice but to sell their sons and daughters. Some sell their sons and daughters to live for themselves. There were good days, but it was just to find a good place for our children. My parents had no choice at that time. "

Rong Ye didn't listen at all: "If my parents sell me, no matter if they do it for my own good or not, I will definitely be very angry and will never forgive them for the rest of my life."

Gu Chao coaxed him: "How could this happen to you?"

Rong Ye sniffed and asked again: "Then the marshal was sold to someone else as his son. How will others treat you?"

Gu Chao lowered his eyes and said nothing.

"Not good?" Rong Ye cried again: "Marshal was bullied?"

Gu Chao saw that the child was reluctant, so he could only tell him everything.

"You are from Kyoto. Have you heard of it? More than ten years ago, about nineteen years ago? There was a strange case in Kyoto, called the case of a missing child."

Rong Ye had tears hanging on his eyelashes and was stunned for a moment.

Of course she had heard of the missing child case. Her cousin Liu Feng and her good friend Yan Qiu, who grew up together, were both victims of the missing child case that year.

Rong Ye hurriedly asked: "What happened to the missing child case?"

Gu Chao lowered his eyes: "At that time, people in the capital were in panic. Officials were afraid that their children would be harmed, so they secretly bought and raised their adopted children at home, using the method of replacing Tao Zong with their luggage."

"Is the marshal bought by such a family? They want you to be kidnapped in place of their own children?" Rong Ye was shocked: "How much suffering has the marshal endured? I heard that those people gave bugs to the children!"

Gu Chao laughed: "For children from wealthy families, eating bugs is naturally like torture, but for a poor kid like me, bugs are not difficult to swallow and can fill their stomachs."

This Rong Ye actually admitted: "Some bugs are indeed delicious. The silkworm chrysalis is very crispy and fragrant when fried. No, no, wasn't it when I said this? Was the marshal later rescued?"

"If I hadn't been rescued, would you still be able to see me now?"

Rong Ye asked again: "What happened after that? After the family took the marshal back, did they admit their mistake and make amends?"

"It's compensation."

Gu Chao said and pressed the child's head again: "Okay, go to sleep for a while. I want to hear a story. Let's talk about it next time."

Rong Ye couldn't sleep, so he looked at the marshal eagerly.

Gu Chao stared at him so hard that he could only say: "Although they didn't give me good clothes and food, they still gave me a way out. Yan Zhenli, the Marquis of Yue State, was my mentor. Now that I am less than thirty, I can already lead a group of people." The soldiers of the army guard the border and are really cultivated by their mentors. "

Rong Ye breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She clenched her fists and said angrily: "After all the hard work, the marshal will be very powerful in the future. He will trample under his feet all those who bullied the marshal in the past! No, the marshal is very powerful now. Marshal It’s the most powerful!”

Rong Ye said, his eyes as bright as stars, staring at Gu Chao for an instant.

Gu Chao met his eyes. He listened to the child's words and met the child's gaze. For some reason, his heart felt numb and his heartbeat suddenly became a little faster.

At this time, Rong Qing and Rong Mo were still standing outside the main camp, waiting for a long time, but still couldn't wait for their little cousin to come out.

What's going on? What are you talking about for so long?
