Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Chapter 976 How could such an idiot be born!

Gu Qingzhe and his companion were sent to the yamen for disrespecting the Crown Princess.

When the Gu family heard this news, everyone at the dinner table had very strange expressions.

"What did that idiot do? How dare he disrespect Zhen'er?"

Grand Tutor Gu slammed his hand on the table, his dignified face filled with displeasure and anger. "Has he eaten the gall of a bear and the heart of a leopard?!"

Madam Gu looked embarrassed. Seeing that Grand Tutor Gu was looking at her, she had no choice but to explain:

"Don't look at me, I know what's going on. I just heard that wretched child say he was coming back..."

At this point, Madam Gu paused, observing Grand Tutor Gu's expression, and said, "I was worried that you would be unhappy after hearing this news, so I haven't said anything yet."

"What did you say? He's been expelled from the family register. I made it very clear back then, and he still wants to come back? What face does he have to come back?"

Grand Tutor Gu looked disgusted. He had indeed hesitated for a long time before making this decision, but now he felt that his decision was absolutely correct!

Having been away from the family for so long, he hasn't realized his mistakes at all and continues to make them. How could he have given birth to such a stupid son!

"He now has a child outside, and says he wants the child to be recognized by his ancestors..." Old Madam Gu added.

"Has a child?"

Grand Tutor Gu was dumbfounded, speechless for a moment. He turned to look at the others in the mansion, "You all know about this?"

The members of the Gu family exchanged glances. After the first person learned of this news, the others also found out one after another.

"You all knew, but you kept it from me?" Grand Tutor Gu glared, his beard bristling.

“Father, don’t be angry. The reason we didn’t tell you was because we were worried you would be angry,” Gu Jia Dalang explained.

"Let's put that aside for now and talk about what disrespectful things he's done. Zhen'er has such a good temper; she wouldn't hold it against him like this unless he'd made a serious mistake!"

Grand Tutor Gu looked serious; he was most pleased with his granddaughter.

Although she was only recognized after she grew up, she is truly wonderful in every way.

"Grandfather, I know about this!"

Gu Huan'er was the first to step forward. She knew that this matter would be reported back to the manor today, so she specially stayed at the manor for dinner.

"Tell me," said Grand Tutor Gu.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Huan'er vividly recounted everything that had happened that day.

"Originally, my cousin was worried about Zhaoyuan's injury and that I almost fell, so she asked Zhu Niantao to apologize. But instead of apologizing, Zhu Niantao put on airs as an elder."

I thought that after my third uncle arrived, he would reason with us, but to my surprise, he protected Zhu Niantao and accused us of being impolite.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the people from the first and second branches of the Gu family became extremely strange. Was this guy out of his mind?

“He has never been kind to Zhen’er from the beginning until now. Where does he get the confidence to put on airs in front of the current Crown Princess?”

Gu Jia Dalang was at a loss for words, unsure whether to praise his younger brother's courage or his foolishness!

Even Song Lin, Zhen'er's father, wouldn't dare to act so arrogantly in front of Zhen'er now, right?

"I'm ashamed to even hear about the mess this idiot made!"

Grand Tutor Gu covered his eyes, feeling utterly humiliated. He had already driven his wretched son out, yet he still managed to disgrace him in public!

"There's one more thing, but I'm not sure if I should say it," Gu Huan'er said again.

In an instant, everyone's eyes were on her.

"Just say what you have to say," said Grand Tutor Gu. He figured that since they were already so humiliated, how much more humiliating could it get?

Gu Huan'er reminded them, "You all need to be mentally prepared."

"Huan'er, don't worry, nothing can upset us," her mother said.

"My cousin said that the child in Zhu Niantao's belly is not Uncle's."

"puff."

Gu Huan'er's brother couldn't hold back and spat out a mouthful of rice.

"Cough, cough, cough."

Gu Huan'er quickly patted him, "Brother, are you alright? I already told you to be prepared, how come you still choked?"

"You can say whatever you want, don't worry about me."

Madam Gu's expression changed at this moment, and she hurriedly asked, "Huan'er, what exactly happened?"

This is of utmost importance; we can't afford any mistakes. Tell us quickly and in detail what exactly happened!

"You all know how capable my cousin is. She said it directly when she met Uncle San today."

I noticed Zhu Niantao's expression change immediately, so it must be true. However, my third uncle seemed slow to react and didn't realize the problem at all. He even thought that my cousin was deliberately smearing Zhu Niantao..."

Gu Huan'er spread her hands, after all, when Gu Qingzhe was taken away, he was still saying that it was absolutely impossible.

The eldest and second sons of the Gu family exchanged a glance and fell silent. Having such a foolish younger brother was truly a complicated situation.

Back when Gu Qingzhe was completely fooled by Liu Yunwei, they were quite disappointed in him. But now, hearing about this, they just felt that it was indeed something Gu Qingzhe was capable of doing.

"He doesn't even consider his current situation. What is it that such a young girl would go to such lengths to climb up to him and urge him to acknowledge his ancestors?"

Gu Erlang shook his head. "He's so old, yet he can still be fooled by a young girl."

"I heard that he even went to find Ruyan and forced her to come back and speak up for her. After Ruyan refused, he even tried to make things difficult for her, and in the end, he was reprimanded by His Highness the Crown Prince."

I thought he would change after he found out, but who would have thought he would be completely unrepentant? He is really foolish and selfish! Gu Dalang said.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. That idiot is stupid enough, but there's absolutely no way he'll get back!"

Grand Tutor Gu immediately made a decision: "From now on, you should not see him again, lest you chill Ruyan's heart."

Over the years, we have already wronged Ruyan. It's not that we didn't give Qingzhe a chance before; on the contrary, we gave him the most chances, but he himself didn't know how to cherish them.

"He even dares to threaten Ruyan now! If he dares to come again, I'll break his legs!"

Madam Gu nodded. She didn't know that Gu Qingzhe had gone to make things difficult for Ruyan. She had just felt that he was her son after all, and as a mother, she couldn't help but feel sorry for him suffering outside.

However, now that I realize this guy can't tell right from wrong, I feel a bit disgusted with him.

"I understand. From now on, even if he comes to beg me, I will ignore him."

“That’s right!” Grand Tutor Gu nodded. “As for them being in jail now, we don’t need to worry about it. Since he finds it so difficult to apologize, let him stay in his cell!”

They really think he's some kind of magician, refusing to back down. But that kid… you still need to remind him.”
